SHOT AT HIS BRoTHER-IN.LAw.
Robert McBroom Fires a Rifle at
James Marcum.

Robert McBroom Fires a Rifle at
James Marcum.
Bad blood exists between Robert
McBroom and James Marcum,
brother's-in-law. McBroom is a
rancher, and lives eight miles south
of Pendleton. He is the son of j.
HI. McBroom, who formerly resided
in Weston, and who at one time
was constable of Weston precinct
and also acted as city marshal of
that town.
Marcum also lived at Weston
some time ago, and was in the
grocery business with Chas Nc
Bride He married McBroom's Sis
ter, since which time he has been
farming near Pendleton. The
Pendleton Tribune gives the fol-
lowing facts of shooting scrape
between McBroom and Marcum:
About 4:30 o'clock Tuesday af-
ternoon Robert McBroom, a ranch
er living eight mile south of town,
fred several shots at James Mar
cum, his brother-in-law but his
aim was faulty and his human tar
get escaped without injury. So far
as known, the men had had no
trouble, and no reason can be given
for McBroom's strange action.
"The trouble arose when Mar
cum called at McBroom's ranch
in company with the latter's moth
er. Mrs. McBroom and her son
has had some difficulty of late, and
she drove out with Marcum to- see
about the management ofthe ranch.
Arriving there, she left the vehicle
and entered the house. A few
minutes later Marcum heard
frightful Screens and cries of "run
JIM" and he Immediately proceed
ed to follow the advice. Several
smart cuts with his whip sent his
horses dashing down the road, and
none too soon, for at almost the
same instant McBroom appeared
at the threshold with rifle and fred
several shots at him. None took
effect. Marcum arrived in Pend
Teton an hour later, and informed
Sheriff Houser of the occurrence,
and Deputies Frazier and Carney
were sent to the ranch to arrest Nc
Broom. Meantime, McBroom had
The Athena press. [volume] (Athena, Umatilla County, Or.) 18??-1942, 1895-09-27

testimony that Kane attempted to
pass counterfeit half and one dol
lar pieces. One groceryman and
saloonkeeper testified that Kane
had passed spurious coins on them.
Kane testified in his own behalf.
He came to Walla Walla last Sun
day, on his way to Starbuck to se-
cure employment in the railroad
shops. AT Pasco he had a $50 gold
piece changed, receiving some sill
yer, and did not know the money
was counterfeit, having been drunk
several weeks and not being cap
able of distinguishing good money
from bad.
The commissioner took the case
under adyisement, allowing either
side to introduce more testimony if
desired.

Still Hunting a Home.

Early last spring a family passed
through town in a covered wagon
and on each side of the canvas we
noticed these words in nice big let
ters: "To the Palouse country or
bust" Last Friday the same wag-
on came through town again. The
whole placard had been obliterated
save the word "bust," and to it
were the letters led" added, with a
piece of charcoal. We had a long
talk says the Union with the dis
appointed man and he said: 1.-THE
country is all right, but the squir.
rels broke me all up, hence that
warning sign on my wagon cover. !"
After buying a few groceries, a can
Of axle grease and an ak handle, he
pulled out again, still in quest of a
home.

Oregon Notes.

Pendleton is bound to have a
wooden mill. Over $4,000 of the
$15, 900 bonds has been subscribed.
Snow last week in the Greenhorn
district turned many band Of
sheep toward their winter quarters.
Mr.. Lindsy, of Pendleton, has
been buying horses around Dale to
ship east, The average price paid
was $3.50.
Twenty-Five complaints were
filed in the recorders court in The
Dalles Monday against Jennie Doe
and others. The cases result from
q sort Of moral wave at The Dalles.
Those complained against have
pooled their issues and will fight
the cases.
The delinquent tax list of Union
county has been handed to the
printer for publication, and it is
estimated that the list will make
over two seven-column pages of
solid nonpareil.
1t is stated that the returns from
the recent Mays shipment Of cattle
to Omaha are very unsatisfactory.
Some of the cattle did not bring
over 1886 per head. Forty y-one
head were sold for that sum, 43
head for 1920, and the balance for
1926 per head.

gone to Pilot Rock, and manifested
his solicitude as to Marcum's
health by inquiring over the tele-
phone if he had been injured.
Mrs. McBroom was badly fright
ened, but not hurt. It is said that
McBroom had previously threaten
ed to kill Marcum.
"McBroom surrendered hi p
the sheriff Wednesday nr' :.
Deputy Sheriff Frazier and I
had gone out after McBroom, t
learning that he had started 10
town, they returned about 10
o'clock at night. An hour or SO
later, McBroom arrived, but he did
not give himself up until morning
He then told the sheriff that he
had left the ranch Immediately af-
ter the shooting at Marcum and
had returned at night just few
minutes after the officers had de-
parted. Knowing that an attempt
to escape wouldlbe useless, he hitched
up his team and came to town with
the intention of surrendering him
self.
IA charge of assault with dan
gerous weapon was lodged against
McBroom, and he had his trial be-
fore Justice Parks, Mr.. Lawrey con-
Quoting the prosecution. The ev-
idence of Marcum was taken, and
the defendant admitted his guilt.
He was fined $40 and costs. He
paid the amount, and at once re-
turned to his ranch"

The readers ofth paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages and that Is Catarrh. Halls Cattarrh
ture is the only positive cure now known to

ATHENA, SEPTEMBER 27 1895,

WHILE the price of wool this
year, under free trade was much
better than last year under the Nc
Kinley tariff says an exchange, 1t
is not what it was four or five years
ago, nor is it liable to ever again
command the price that prevailed
during the period Immediately fol-
lowing the war. The tendency in
prices has been steadily downward
for the past rs years, and this re-
gardless of the tariff upon it. The
reason for this is the same as that
that has brought wheat down, and
is found in over-production. In
the United States the production
Of wool has not kept pace with the
increase Of population, though it
has nearly done So. In 1870 we
imported 70 per cent ofall the wool
and woolen goods used in'this coun-
try. In 1880 we imported 35 per
cent, in 1886 trifle less than 19
per cent, which was low water
mark. In 1886 it W as 80 per cent,
in 1887 32 per cent, in 1888>28, in
in 1889 80, about the same in 80
and '91, "a in '92 and SO in 1913.
The statistics for '94 are not at
hand In 1870 we raised 162, ,000,-
600 pounds, in 1880 232,000,000
pounds, increasing steadily to 1886,
when 308,000,000 pounds were
clipped which was high water
mark. For the next four years the
clip steadily decreased until 1889
sitwas only 100000 pounds or
tbout what it was in 1880, This
lecline occurred under the tariff of
1888, which was for first and second
lass wool 10 and IL cents a pound
ospectively, which under the Nc
linley bill superseding it the tariff |
yas IL and IL cents. From 1889 |
n, 1893 tho product increased un-
"A in the latter year 303,000,000 |
,unds were clipped. This was
le increase in the United States.
Ill the meanwhile what was done

{ ip increased from 175,000,000 in
10 to 550,0O0,000 in 1891, ard is
'ow estimated at 650,000,000. The
lpe of Good Hope in the same

Sool market down, just as it has
rought the wheat market down.

lies not in the tariff but in growing
