High Prices for Alfalfa.

At North Yakima, Washington, al
falfa, which is usually worth So, 50MS4 so
per ton, Is selling for So and upward.
There was early feeding, large previous
contracting and comparative scarci Y
of hay. The potato, for which this
valley is famous, is made a substitute
for hlgh-priced hay by those who were
caught without good supply on hand
when winter set in. Small potatoes can
be purchased at SO per ton, and they
are considered TO be as good for feed as
as any other tuber grown. The sheep
men say three towns of them are equal
to two tons of hay, and, when fed to the
sheep raw, as is being done, they prove
very nutritious. The sheep men con-
tend that the price of hay will drop be-
fore the first of February, while the
farmer contends that before next spring
the price will 90 up to $l2 and $l4a ton.
Never in the history OF the Yakima
valley has such big price been paid
for alfalfa az at present. This time Il
year ago, $3.50 was the highest price
paid, but, owing to the great number of
stock brought in from Oregon to be fed
in the valley, and the cold weather that
has prevailed for a month past, there
has developed a scarcity not at first
expected.

OREGON INDORSES ROOSEVELT.
Legislature Passes Memorial AP-
plauding Trust Policy.

Salem, Ore Jan. 10 9-(Special. by
unanimous vote the Senate today passed
a Joint memorial indorslng the course of
President Roosevelt in relation to the
trusts, and urging Oregon's Representa-
tives in Congress to give him their loyal
support in his efforts. Democrats joine d
with the Republicans in voting for the
memorial. Senator Sweek, of Multi
nomah, said when his name was called
that it was hardly right to put Demo
crat on record as indorsing the official
act OF Republican President, but he
felt that this memorial deserved his
support, and he would vote "aye."
To the Honorable Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States,
in Congress assembled: Your me-
moriaIists, the Legislative Assembly of
the State of Oregon, hereby respectfully
represents
Whereas, The growth of monopolistic
com binations of capital known as trusts
is such as to threaten the common well
fare, the peace of society and the
perpetuity of our social and government
al system and
Whereas, Theodore Roosevelt, Presi-
dent OF the United States, has recon-
mended and is now urging the enact
ment of legislation restricting the opera
tions of the trusts, extending the scope
of the Sherman antitrust law o. 1880,
and providing for its more effective en-
forcement; and
Whereas, The so-called trusts are ex-
erting themselves to defeat such pro-
posed legislation; therefore,
Resolved, That your memorialists
urge that in this most important matter
the Congress of the United States rally
to the support of Theodore Roosevelt,
the peoples standard bearer, in his
righteous stand against the undue en-
croachments of corporate power, and
we call upon our Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress TO exert all
possible efforts to this end.

Ueppner, Oregon, Jan. 20, 1908.
To the Patrons of Heppner Schools -
give as follows statement OF one OF
my official acts:
On December 9th, last, | spoke to
lady who has been teaching in your
schools in regard to her certificate and
was informed that she had none, but
that she had diploma from school in
an Eastern state. The next day she
brought the diploma to my Office. After
examining it and finding that it was not
a valid teachers certificate in the state
from which she came, ! told her that |
would be compelled by law to examine
her for permit, bat that she might 90
on with her school work and | would ex-
anime her in one or two branches each
evening after school. She promptly
replied: ''I will not take the examira-
ton, l will resign first" Since she
neither took the examination nor resign
ed. ten davs later | brought the matter
ND to the school board. In view Of the
above facts and the resignation Of Miss
McGrew, I took it for granted that
there were two vacancies in the school
and applied for position for Mrs.
Shipey. Some complications arising,
care was taken to observe the law
strictly. The teacher in question has
received the same treatment that any
other teacher would receive under the
same circumstances. There was no
lawful ground whatever upon which to
give her a permit without an examina-
ton. She fatty refused to take the
examination, and in accordance with a
law has no right to continue teaching
respectfully submitted,

When Ice Covered Europe.

During the long tertiary epoch, when
opossums disported themselves on the
site of Paris and mastodons tramped
along the valley of the Thames, the
earth was in the throes of mountain
making. The Alps, the Himalayas,
the Alleghanies, the Andes, attest the
power of her activity in those days. At
their termination our continents stood
greatly higher than they do now, and
this aided their glaciation, although II
does not fully account for 1t.
But as they became loaded with ice
Europe and America gradually. and we
may venture to say contemporaneously,
sank. This was inevitable. Owing to
the extreme heat and pressure prevail
ing in its interior the earth is an en-
inently elastic body. Its surface ac-
tually bulges in or out with very
slight increase or decrease of the load

About the Company.
The NJ. d X. is booming. A
representative of this paper called
al the office in the post Office build
ing this morning and had talk
with Manager F. K. Bretz about
the road. He stated that many i'm
provements were planned for the
summer.
Among others is the relayIng of
the track. New So pound rails are
to go on the s, stem from Morgan
town to Masontown distance Of ID
miles. More than a mile of these
have been laid and the rest sill be
placed as fast as they can go down
The old roadway was very 'ough
but when the new rails are in place
great improvement will be noted.
Filling the trestles along tie line
is being prosecuted now also The
trestle over Deep hollow is now re-
ceiving attention. The Com hollow
.trestle will eventually be filed. This
will make the roa much better than
it is now. The latter trestle is a
very strong structure and will not
receive attention very soon
The engine wrecked at the hog
Back the other day has been put in
the local shops and will be repaired
here. 1t was not damaged as much
as at first thought, and it will be In
service again before very long.
When asked about the reported
strike Mr.. Bretz stated that al the
men who had quit had returne: to
work. They were laboring undtr a
misundersta ndiDg. This grew out OF
the fact that different wages are paid
for construction and for maintenance
of way Some forty Or fifty men had
been engaged in the construction OF
Rock Forge branch which was finished
several days ago. They were then
placed on maintenance OF way.
While working on construction they
were paid 81 80 per day in accordance
with the scale usually In force. When
they went tc the other work they re.
ceived $l.35, which is the rate paid
for this. When the wreck occurred
at the Hog Back they thought that it
would be good time to lay down aud
the company would meet their de-
mands to give them the same wages
they had received for the other work.
They were told to quit. This morn
ing all Of them returned to work
Another report that Bennett aud
TalUott had stopped work at their
quarries on &C count OF increase in
freight rates was Jcalled to Mr.. Brrtz's
attention. He stated that the tirm
was still shipping out stone. The
rates for them had been advanced,
but this was done after consulta ton
with the firm. They we're the first
hIm to go up the railroad and we're
given very low rate. This did not
pay for hauling the empty cars to
them. After they had talked over
the matter they agreed to an advance.
All of the spurs which ban been
under construction have been finish
ed The one to the West Virginia
Coal and Coke Company went in some
time ago. Here thirty ovens are max
ing coke. All the product will be mlde
into coke for the time being. About
one hundred ovens are under construc-
tion besides the ones now making
coke The concern is turning out
100 to 100 tens of coal day.
The Deckers Creek Coal aud Coke
Company are building many coke
ovens also These TIVE concerns will
employ large numbers OF men before
the summer is ended At each of
them many houses are being built for
the employees.

New monitor shown Good speed.

Bridgeport, Conn, March 20.-The
coast defense monitor Florida has
succeeded in making q final speed
test. and the result is highly satisfac-
tory to both her builders and the gov
eminent trial board. The government
contract called for a speed of liz
knots, but during the trial the speed
of the boat did not go as low as that
figure. The highest speed attained
was 10 knots and the lowest 1874. The
course was liz knots and back again.
During the entire trial every piece of
machinery of the boat worked perfect
ly. The time made by the monitor is
subject to tidal and current correction,
but 1t is not believed that her highest
speed record will fall much below IL
knots
