WALLA WALLA WHEAT SAFE.
Little Damage Done by Heat I'm That
District.

Walla Walla, July 24.-The general
opinion of the farmers who were in
Walla Walla today was that very lit
tie wheat has been damaged by the
hot weather of the past three days.
The fall wheat was thoroughly ripe
before the hot wave made its appear
ance and none of 1t will be hurt in the
least. In many instances the spring
wheat was out OF the dough and bar
ring a few localities it is ripe enough
for harvesting.
Reports from Eureka Flat received
this morning were to the effect that
the per centage of the spring wheat
that may be shriveled will be very
small. In the foothill district the far
mers claim that the spring grain is in
better condition than 1t has been for
many years. No reports of damage
have come from that section.
Reports received from the Palouse
country this morning by some of the
local grain dealers conveyed the in
formation that the hot weather is do
ing a great deal of damage. The sea-
son is considerably later in that sec
ton than in the Walla Walla valley
and the hot wave has had disastrous
effect on the grain. 1t is said many
fields have been badly damaged.

Adding to the Exhibit.

Dan c. Bowman, in charge of the
Umatilla county exhibit at the Lewis
and Clark fair. writes that the pho
tographs of harvest scenes sent in by
o. G. Allen, of this city, and the can
ned fruit sent in by Mrs. G. A. Hobbs,
OF Milton, were the greatest attrac-
:tons in the Umatilla county booth
after put in place. The exhibit is in
very good condition at present, but
the greatest need is fresh fruits to
keep up the appearance. The decora-
tions are now very unique and pretty
and the county is making flrst-class
showing. The statistical folders con-
cerning the county are in great de-
mand, scarcely a person passing fall
ing to carry away one of them.

In the light of recent disclosures in
the sheriff's office and the stories
that are floating around concerning
CRAFTS, it would seem almost impera-
tive that a grand jury be called at the
next session of the district court, says
the Capital News of Boise. There
are shady transactions of certain pub
lie officials that can only be properly
Investigated by grand jury. If rec
ords are clear the cloud should be re-
moved. and If not clear, full punish
ment should be meted out to the
guilty parties. The law leaves the
matter Of calling a grand jury in the
discretion of the court. 1t would seem
that the time is now ripe for import
ant work by the inquisitorial arm of

That next years wool prices will be
equal to or better than the prices re-
ceived this year, is fully proved by the
activity of wool buyers who are now
endeavoring to contract next years
clips at the high water marks of this
years prices.
a private letter from James H.
Gwinn, secretary of the National
Livestock association, to the East Or
egonian, says that buyers are now
making every effort in Wyoming and
Nevada to contract next years wool
clip at the highest mark paid this
year, offering as an additional induce
ment to pay one-third of the contract
price down now, thus giving the
sheepmen use of this amount for the
| coming year.
Mr.. Gwinn says that there is no
doubt whatever about the prices be-
ing as high or higher than last year,
as the wool bins in all the great mar
kets are cleaned out the output OF
wool is not increasing as rapidly as
the demand for woolen manufactures
is increasing and so the American
SHeeplnell Will De Il ldNOleu man iOA
the next few years.
In the same letter Mr.. Gwinn says
there is strong demand from all the
corn states for feeders and IL the
sheepmen do not hold out for unreas-
enable prices the movement of this
class of sheep will be very heavy this
year.
AS to general conditions reported to
Mr.. Gwinn's office from all over the
stock producing states, he says the
stockmen are in excellent condition
and spirits and the tendency is to gel
out of debt, although in many locali-
! ties stockmen are buying more and
more land and in some places 1t is
| almost certain they are overreachine
but with good prices and good success:
in handling their stock, the future l:
bright for them.
The National Livestock association
is now directing all its energies to Sc
curing a large delegation to the recip'
rocity congress which will be held ii
Chicago August Is and II. 1t hopes
to be able to open the ports of Europe
to American meat products, thus in
creasing the income to American
stockmen over $1OO.O0O,OOO annually
The prohibitive tariffs now in force
against our meat products forbid
their entrance into Germany.

Saturday afternoon. Five thousand
dollars is the amount which Martin

Milton. Immediately after the bond
had been signed Martin was released
and left on the o'clock train for his
home at Milton.
At the depot Martin mingled with
the crowd and was recognized by very
few. He was in good spirits over his
release and his coming visit with his
parents. He has fattened considera-
bly, since his trial, and does not APP
pear to have suffered much during his
