NEW HARVESTING METHODS.
Better Time Now MADE In Umitilla County
Than Ever Before.

Better Time Now Maae in Umitilla County
Than Ever Before.
PENDLEToN, Or. Sept. by the
Introduction of the big now pattern OF
threshers the work of separating grain
from the straw has undergone change
in this country. A few years ago a
good days work OF threshing was 1900
to 1900 bushels. Now there are thresh-
ing machines at work that turn out
from 1900 to to 1000 sacks, according to
the condition of the straw. When the
straw is triae tough, the days work
is only about 1900 sacks, or more than
5000 bushels. When the straw is in
prime condi lion, dry, the big machines
threash 1000 sacks every day they are
in operation.
Two thousand sacks will make on the
average about 1850 bushels, as the sacks
overrun two bushels considerably.
The combine harvesters. which cut,
thresh and sacks the grain as the ma
chine moves along the field, get away
with 80 acres in day, which is equal
on an average of 25 bushels to the acre,
to 1000 bushels. The big stationary
threshers, separating 1000 sacks in a
day, are disposing of one quarter OF
section of land.

FORMED A POLICY
AT LAST
President Has One For
Governing Islands.

NEW YORK, Sept. "A special to
the Herald from Washington says:
There is good authority for the state
ment that the president has returned
to Washington with these general
ideas uppermost in his mind as to his
future course in relation to the new
dependencies.
The Philippines-Civil government
by three commissioners TO supplement
military rule Immediately after the
rebellion is crushed.
Cu5a-Continued military control
until it is determined by means of a
general election whether the inhabi-
tants want independence or annexs-
tion. If independence, the new gov
ernment elected will be recognized by
the United States and will be given
encouragement and every opportunity
to establish its stability. If annexa-
tion, the president will be governed
by the sentiment of American citizens
as it may then exist.
Porto Rico-Civil government OF the
territorial form, similar TO that
which prevails in Arizona.
Hawaii-Territoria form of Cover.
ment as recommended by the Hawaiian
commission and as provided for in
measure now pending in congress.
Some weeks will elapse before the
president settles down to the actual
preparation of his message, but
he has returned, from his
vacation with some we'll defined
views as to the difficult problems
which confront him and will immedi-
ately commence discussions of the de-
tails with the members of his cabinet.
1t has been generally supposed that
with the war still in progress in the
Philippines the president would avoid
committing himself to recommends
tions of the future government of the
islands, but such Will not probably be
the case. His Pittsburg speech leaves
no room for doubt that he will insist
upon American control of the Philip
pines. To this extent he has come out
squarely and thrown down the gaunt-
let to the anti.expansionists.
Mr.. Mckinley not only fayors the
permanent control but is prepared
with all the forces at command to
fight for it. but to avoid the charge of
militarism, and that is his reason for
making the recommendations, he
purposes outlining plan to congress
for submitting civil form of govern
ment for the military the moment
peace is ootained and the complete
SUPREMACY of the United States estao-
lished.

HOLD-UP IN SPOKANE.

Gambling House Rarded and Considerable
Money Stolen.
SPOKANE, Sept. 4.-The first gamb-
ling house hold-up IN Spokane since
the exciting cleaning out of the LIE
Roi a year ago, happened at 3:45 o'clock
Sunday morning in Harry Green's
gamb bling hall. Two masked men with
four heavy caliber guns robbed the
place o. about S17OO ia gold, silver and
bills. They escaped unmolested
through rear Railways and by the back
entrance.
During the pursuit Policeman Gem
mriz was mortally wounded. An ex-
convict named Frank Fair, age %
years, has been arrested ON suspicion.
Harry Green is hugging himself be-
cause hold-up men neglected to take
from the safe, W hich they looted, a tin
document box containing SO, 500 in S20
gold pieces, jewelry to the value of
81 1000, $3.50 in paper money, $500 in
checks and 81, 900 in certificates of de-
posit, total wealth of $50. The
robber who went through the safe
tucked this box under his arm, hesitat-
ed and set it down on the floor evidently
not caring to be encountered by its
weight and size.

SHEEP TO Be
BARRED OUT
Probably All the Reserve
Will Be Closed.

WAsHINGsoN, Sept. 3.-Thc secre
tary of the interior has Cancelled the 6S
permits that have beensgranted sheep
men to Craze within the Rainier forest
reservation, Washington, and here
after all sheep will be excluded from
the reservation. The 6S permits
represent 100000 sheep now on the
reservation. In making his exclusion
order. the secretary said: "The grant
ing of such permits was not in con-
formity, but rather interefere7 with
the objects, for which reservations are
created" For this reason he declined
to sanction such permits. 1t was
mainly through the instrumentality of
Com missioner Hermann that these
permits were granted in the first place,
they coming from the general land
Office. Hermann has been of the
opinion that sheep-grazing in the open
areas of forest reservations was not
injurious to the forests, but special
agents of the interior department
have made extensive investigations
and reported to the contrary.
Secretary Wilson, of the agricultural
department. strenuously opposed sheep
grazing on reservations, and in the
face of such opposition the sheep will
have to go. This decision of Secretary
Hitchcock is but precedent, and it
will be only matter of time before
sheep are excluded from all the forest
reserves of the country including the
great Cascade reserve in Oregon. The
secretary is convinced that sheep kill
the young growth of trees. shrubs and
grass, and therefore will exclude them.

Insurgents Attack Angeles.

MANILA, Sept. 3,-The insurgents
made an unsuccessful attempt early
yesterday morning to drive Colonel
Smiths command out of Angeles with
artillery, the first time they have at.
tempted to use this arm for months.
They brought two Krupp guns from
Poracand fired eight shrapnels at the
town at dawn. Only few of the shells
exploded, and, the aim of the gunners
being bad, no damage was done. Lieu.
tenant Kenley's guns of the First ar
tillery were brought into action i'm
mediately and soon drove the enemy
from their position.
At 4:30 o'clock this morning small
party of rebels fired into Guada, which
is held by two companies of the Ninth
regiment. supported by the gunboat
Lagune de Bay. One native resident
was wounded. The enemy was driven
off by infantry fire and the guns OF the
gunbOat.

THE OUTLOOK Is omINoUs.
Kruger Withdraws His Concessions to
Great Britain


LONDON, Sept. A dispatch from
Johannesburg definitely announces the
reply of the Transvaal republic to the
British communication. 1t withdraws
the franchise proposal and agrees to a
conference at Cape Town.
The reply of the Transvaal republic
to the command of Great Britain In
creases the term of years residence
necessary to obtain the franchise.
The afternoon papers take the view
that if the foregoing dispatch is correct
Kruger's reply is ominous, as it was
palpably made to gain time. Sir
Alfred Miners suggestion of a further
conference with Cape Town was insti-
gated with the sole purpose OF consider
ing the details and government con-
cessions offered by the Beers. If the
concessions are Withdrawn there can
be no object from a British point oi
view for parleing any longer. The
| inference to be drawn is that the Beers
have taken Chamberlain in broader
sense than he intended and they now
want to begin negotiations over again
| on a new basis.
