Who is to Blame?

A Man had Piece Of News
A Reporter heard of it.
The Reporter called on the Man.
And asked him about the News.
The Man played Balloon with the
Reporter.
He swelled noticeably and said:
You Fellows never get Anything
right So / won't tell you. -
The Reporter did not get angry.
He knew the Man was Fool.
He bad seen Them before.
He knew the real Facts could be
had from no one else.
Yet the Reporter did the very Best
he could to get at the Truth
And published the Story as he got
it.
Then the Man who had refused
to give the Facts arose early and
bought Paper to see if the Facts
were distored.
They were.
And he said:
II told you so. -
Query-With whom should the Pub
lie yearn to get even-the Reporter,
who did his best, or the arrogant Fool,
who deliberately refused to help him

Erez Forman in East Lynne"

Fifty years or more look down on
East Lynne" the play that was con
temD0raneOus with "Camille.' Our
fOrefathers wGpt over and applaud
ed the sufferings Of the misguided
heroine and accorded the piece high
place in the emotional drama Of the
day. The revival to be given East
Lynne" by Inez Forman and her com
pany at the opera house next Wednes-
day night will serve to perpetuate The
play most pleasantly in the memory
Of many pTesent-day theatregOers.
The piece has been somewhat altered,
chiefly by the Introduction Of more
comedy into the opening scenes.
While serves the ostensible purpose
of giving John Dillon a better Oppor-
tunity, it also heightens the darker
shadows of the play after the manner
of Rembrandt. The scenic effect and
costumes are said to be quite gor-
geous, so that. with such an unusual
Iy fine cast, the revival promises 20
be one Of the best things CT the sea-
son.

THERE ARE OTHERS.

President Roosevelt and Secre-
otary Root did not consider General
Miles forty years faithful service to
his country worthy Of a word of COM
mendatiOn upon his retirement, but
more competent judges have had a
higher appreciation of the splendid
military record made by Miles. On
April 2, 1865 General Grant wrote as
follows from the field Of battle in Vir-
ginia to General Meade:
Miles has made a big thing Of it
and deserves the highest praise for
the pertinacity with which he stuck
to the enemy until he wrung from
him victory. AS the cavalry was COM
ing down the Cox and River roads, |
am very much in hopes we will hear
tonight OF the capture of the balance
of Heth's and WilCOX's divisions.
think a cavalry force has been thrown
TO the very bridge over which they
expected to escape in advance" This
was written q few days before the
surrender Of Lee at Appomattox, Miles
having done a great deal toward corn
ering Lees forces.
General Hancock referred to Col
Onel Niles as being worth his weight
in gold" and Miles is no lightweight.
General Phil Sheridan said that
Miles campaigns against the hostile
Indians III the West were the most
brilliant in the history Of the gov
ernment.'
But strongest of all is the endorse
ment given General Miles by the
unanimous vote of his Grand Army
comrades at their recent national en-
campment at San Francisco. 1t is as
follows:
"Resolved, That we congratulate
that splendid soldier, exemplary COM
mander and patriotic citizen, General
Nelson ~ Miles upon his attainment
of a distinguished and honorable re

THE PRICE OF WHEAT.

Seattle .Pcst-Intelligencer ....
The Portland Oregonian. comment
ing on the grain situation in the Pa
cifc Northwest says:
with more than ten weeks Of The
new grain season passed, not a single
grain ship has cleared Puget Sound
and but three have cleared from Port
land. This extraordinary condition
prices demanded by the farmers Of The
Northwest, it being impossible for
exporters to handle wheat except at
a loss"
The clear inference here is that
the farmers have such inflated ideas
as to the value of their wheat that
they are deliberately refusing to sell
it and are holding for rise. In truth
wheat is moving out of first hands
very rapidly and the high price is due
merely to the fact that grain buyers
are bidding against each other
The Oregonian cannot realize thai
conditions have changed and are still
changing rapidly; that the day is
fast approaching. if, indeed, it is not
already at hand, when the Pacific
Coast wheat growers will not look to
Liverpool as the market for their crop.
It is the local millers' demand which
is keeping the buyers for export out
of the market Washington mills
this year will consume considerably
more than one-half of the entire crop
raised in the state. The Oriental
and Alaska markets will absorb in the
form Of flour the major portion Of
the wheat surplus of this state, a sur
plus which. under conditions with
which the OregOnian is familiar, but
which it does not realize are fast
passing away, would have been eX-
ported to Europe.
There is nothing artificial about
the present price of wheat, a price
which puts it out Of the reach Of the
buyers for the European markets. be
cause higher than the corresponding
quotations in Europe. Nillers fix the
price now, not buyers for export; and
the milIers propose to see that their
needs are fully supplied this year,

We think Of nothing but Wheat-Un-

1t is evident that the editorial
writer on the morning paper has been
S closely confined to his sanctum by
hard work that he has nol had an
opportunity TO drive out into the coun-
try surrounding Walla Walla and
learn something Of the diversified
farming that is now being conducted
by many prudent land owners. Ii he
would take a little vacation and en-
deayor to acQuaint himself with act

OF the city he would be surprised 10
learn how important the st0ckraIsing
industry has become in the Walla
Walla valley. indeed, until twenty
five or thirty years aso stoclraising
was the principal industry OF this val
ley. and at that time few believed
that wheat could be raised probably
here Or \. G. BlaIock was one of
the first to experiment with wheat
raising on a large scale on bunch

only for range; He also did more
than any other man to demonstrate
the capabilities Of this country in
raising fruit and vegetables in endless
variety, another industry that has ap-
parently escaped the attention of the
Union, which says that we think OF
nothing but wheat"
Last year the BlaIOck Fruit farm

thousand hogs. This hardly supports

Gotham's Next Prince.

From the New York World.
 Local bandmasters are beginning to rummage their music racks in search for Die Yacht am Rhein." Orators are planning complimentary illusions to the Hohenzollern family. Men who seek re- ception- committee jobs are brushing up their dusty knowledge of German. Prince Adalbert, third son of der wohlege- boren, gnadige Kaiser Wilhelm der Awei- ter, is expected.
 Ten years ago the sight of royalty was so rare in New York that the streets were Utterly damned with struggling people who sought a heeting glimpse of the Infanta Eulalie. Older men, who could recall the Prince of Wales visit in the cos, were local heroes. Since then, however, princes have grown to be well nigh as frequent sights in Gotham as disinterested politicians. Prince Henry. Prince Salm-Salm, Grand Duke Boris, Prince Ii Hung Chang the Crown Prince of Siam, and a long line of others have. during the past decade, feasted free-born American eyes almost to satiety Noth- ing short of a real, guaranteed, union made king can now excite the old-time curiosity of New Workers.
 Nevertheless, Prince Adalbert may be assured of a royal welcome. If he pos- sesses many of his Uncle Henry's attri- butes, this welcome will deepen into per- sonal friendship in the breast of every one who meets him.

padeville Z. Auburn 6.

Dadeville, July 20.-(specia1)-Dadeville won from Auburn here today in what was probably one of the most exciting games that was ever played on an amateur field. Auburn took the lead from the start on account of a few disjointed plays by the locals In the first few innings. At no time during the game, notwithstanding the fact that all of Auburn's players were heavy hitters, did Kid Sturdivant allow the ball to be batted out of the infield, their six scores being made on two passed and three high throws to the basemen. The visitors secured only two slow infield hits which by chance aided them materially in scoring. By punching hits in the eighth inning the locals won out in a garrison finish. At this stage of the game things got toried and the two thousand fans present went completely wild. Score:

Some Expensive Saws.

From the New York Times.
 Probably the most expensive saws in use anywhere in the world are those in the factories of Pennsylvania, where va rious articles are manufactured of slate In one of these factories there are 300 horizontal saws, twelve feet in length, each of which is furnished with seventy five cutting diamonds, each saw being worth $5.000 There are also in the fac tory jigsaws, a circular saw, planners and other slate-working machinery in which there are valuable diamonds.
 The slate land which furnishes the ma- terial for these costly saws to work upon was once so little valued that the tract upon which the famous Chapman quarry in Pennsylvania is situated was once sold for pint of whisky. Its subse- quent owners have taken millions of dol- lars from the land.
 The most valuable slate deposits in the world are found in the central and east ern part of Pennsylvania. In the neigh borhood of the Pennsylvania quarries there are houses whose walls are entirely of slate The blocks of which they are made are smoothly sawed, and are cer- tainly most substantial.
 Slate is put to a variety of uses now adays; out of 1t being made floors, stair ways, sidewalks, bathtubs, managers posts, mantelpieces, blackboards door and window sills. and many other things
 When slate is blasted in the quarries the rough slabs are taken to the shanties of the '.splitters." The stone forms na- turally in layers, and the splitter, fol- lowing the grain or ribbon" with his large chisel separates the blocks into strips. Then these strips are passed through a trimming machine. where by the blows of heavy knife they are cut into rectangular shingles" Afterward they are piled up into squares ready to be used for roofing purposes.
 When slate Is cut up for use in other ways the procedure differs The huge horizontal saw with it's scores of dia- monds. in the factory is called into play; it is lowered upon one of the blocks of slate by a ratchet at the rate of quarter | an inch a minute. The saw would cut through iron or steel at the same rate. | The workmen play stream of water | upon the slate to keep 1t cool. and wash | the dust from tie cut. After the saving | the block is planed by being moved back and forth by machinery under firmly fixed chisel It is afterward polished much as marble and granite are by meant
