P. C. Davis. of Grass Valley, is in
the cits today. Mr.. Davis says farmers
in Shearman county have not sown as
much ground to grain this fall as Gus
tomary. owing to tn fact that they
were kept busy harvesting until late.
and since harvest have devoted their
time principally to getting their grain
TO market, leaving but little time TO
devote to seeding. Though what
grain was sewa early in the fall loofs
fine.
Every night the stree cts of The
Dalles are thronged with hobOs asking
the price of a meal. AS soon as one
gang of them is shipped off another
gang appears, so it seems impossible
to rid the town of them. Possibly a
a good plan to pursue for a while
would be to put them to work shovel
ing mud out of the streets. AS soon
as it was generally known that tramps
we're put to work as soon as they en-
tered the town they would give it the

norugh the columns of the Baker City
'emocrBt that he is a candidate for
heriff of Baker county, subject to the
