TO DIVIDE DISTRICT
RESIDENTS NEAR WALLULA
PETITION FOR CHANGE.
District No. SO is Too Large to Ac-
commodate All the School Patrons
and Division Has Been Petitloned

County Boundary Board at Next
Term of County Court.

Differences existing between resi-
dents of the west end of school dis
trict No. Sc, and those of the east
end. has eliminated in n petition
filed by the latter asking the county
boundary board to divide the district
The petition was filed this morning
and will be taken up before the next
meeting of the county court.
District Sc is on the state line near
Wallula. 1t has two school houses.
one situated near the west end of the
district and the other near the east
side. For many months the people
of one portion of the county have
been at war with the inhabitants of
the other.
AT the last election the west lenders
succeeded in electing all three direc-
tors. Now school is held only in the
west end building. This the east
enders declare is rank discrimination
as it compels their children to walk
long distances i'm order to attend the
sessions. The victorious westerners
say that this complaint of their rivals
is without justification.
The county boundary board con-
sists of the school superintendent, the
county judge and the commissioners.
I'm view of the differences existing
in the district" said County Superin-
tendent Frank X. Welles II think 1t
would be well to make the division. "

When asked about the present
status and next years prospects for
the sheepmen. ]. E. Smith, of the j.
f. Smith Livestock Co., smiled a sat
isfied smile and opened the subject
in reply by saying that he has letter
and personal advices from ShanilSo,
county to the effect that practically
all the young sheep are bought up and
gone, and that buyers from distant
markets are on hand as numerous as
at any time during the buying season.
and more on the way.
Asked about how many sheep will
be left i'm the county this fall when
buying closes, Mr.. Smith stated as his
belief that there will be as many
sheep on hand to be fed this winter
as last, in spite of the enormous sales
that have been effected and more to
be made and being negotiated. He
reminded his inquirer that the lamb
crop last spring was not only very
large, but that the loss of lambs was
very. very small in proportion, and
from these conditions and from OBJ
servation he is sure that the sales
have not been in excess of the natur-
al increase.
Speaking of the relative values of
wool and mutton sheep at this time.
Mr.. Smith expressed the opinion that
a balance is about to be struck-in
fact. will work itself out during the
next year or two-which will estab-
lish higher prices for stock sheep.
This will be the natural result of the
appreciating price of WOOL which
two years ago averaged 12 cents, last
year was 13 cents for the same grade,
and IA cents this year.
From these premises including the
insatiate and unsatisfied demand
from outsiders for Umatilla sheep Mr..
Smith is forced to believe that by
September of next year the average
good yearling ewes will bring SO per
head from outside buyers and from
everybody else who wants to buy
them. He added: Remember that
only three and four years ago they
Were worth that figure and wool not
nearly so high then as now"
Furthermore, added Mr.. Smith,
81 venture the confident prediction
that the same grade of wool that
brought IA cents last spring will next
spring bring Is cents"
In general terms, Mr.. Smith ex-
presses considerable optimism about
the present situation as having bear
ings upon next year and the year
thereafter, and it must be remem-
bered that Mr.. Smith is a conserva-
tive-usually given to being reserved
to the point of reticence. He says:
1.-THE prospects for next year are
really extra good. especially for the
clip. This fall the pasturage is as
fine as the very best fall pasturage
ever has been, and good hay is abun-
dant and cheap. The sheep will start
into the winter proper in fine flesh
and usually in perfect health. In fact,
there is every indication, as much as
indications possibly can have value
