SAVES WHEAT HAULING.
Storage Tanks for Crop Being Built
by Dayton Farmer.

II. w. Richardson, one of the most
extensive wheat growers of Dayton,
Wash, has inaugurated an original
feature to effect saving OF nearly six
cents per bushel in securing and stor-
ing his crop. He conceived the idea
of constructing wooden tanks at con-
venient points about his field to store
grain until convenient to haul to the
railroads or warehouse or the pur-
chaser
The tanks are constructed of 2x6
pieces standing upright and held in
position by iron bands q, hoops Each
tank is 10 feet deep and will hold $500
bushels. They are built above the
surface to enable a team to drive un-
der to remove the grain The bottom
is fitted with a spout and slide.
through which the grain can easily be
drawn into the wagon box, doing away
entirely with the lifting incident to
loading sacked grain. The employ
ment of men and teams to haul grain
during harvest, when both are scarce,
and warehouse charges are eliminat-
ed.
In the harvesting and storing of his
crop of about $4,000 bushels Mr.
Richardson figures that the saving
this year effected by this system will
more than pay for installation. The
grain is run into the tanks direct from
the threshing machine by means of a
strong fan or blower. on the same
principle as the wind stacker, trifle
more power being required to operate
this attachment. Mr.. Richardson's
machine will thresh about 1000 BUSH
! els per day. At least so per day is
saved on the cost of sack sewers and
| jigger.
Another important item saved Is
the cost of grain sacks, which at the
present prices would cost Mr. Rich
ardson this year $4,000. MI. Rich
ardson has 20 tanks scattered about
his place and has stored his entire
crop. The success of the system is
assured

WORST SALOON IN STATE.
Citizens of, Walla Walla County Com
plain of Dive.

Walla Walla, Sept. eff the coun-
ty commissioners take any cognizance
of a letter addressed to the board to-
day by A. f. Reid prominent mer-
chant of Wallula, the little town on
the Columbia will go dry for the next
year.
Mr.. Reid. in lengthy epistle. takes
exceptions to the board granting S.
A. Ash a saloon license to continue
business in Wallula. Mr.. Reid tersely
sized up the saloon as one of the
worst in Walla Walla county, II not
in the entire state.
According to Mr.. Reid, drunken
men are constantly congregating in
and around the resort and lewd wo-
men take a hand at tending bar when
it suits their fancy.
Mr.. Reid asks that the board grant
no more saloon licenses in Wallula.
He says the better class of citizens
are willing to pay additional taxes to
defray the expenses of maintaining a
deputy sheriff there.

ENTIRE TRIBE KILLED.
Germans EXtcrmlnate Natives of West
Africa.

The following special from Berlin
To the Denver Post, tells of the total
determination of the tribe of Hereros,
or natives of German West Africa,
The special is as follows
The official Gazette coolly an
nounces that the Herero nation is no
more Before the war, now raging
i'm the kaisers African empire, this
tribe was estimated to number $4,000
to 1000 people. OF these 400 We're
killed in battle, according to official
figures. The rest. men, women and
children, were driven into the desert
by the kaiser's general, Won Throta.
and allowed to die of thirst,
The blacks, it is stated, were sur
rounded on all sides by German troops
who shot and MANNED every human
being approaching the lines. Previ-
Gus to this. the German general cut
off all streams and rivers traverslng
the sequestere6 territory. Thus he
forced to the most horrible death of
thirst from 10000 TO 10000 human
beings.
Count Schweinitz, captain of horse,
WHO HIS just ItluIutu lIOHl an IN
spection of the desert, says there is
scarcely a living being left He found
dead bodies of men, women and chill
dren by the thousands They lay in
heaps among the perished cattle. To
count them in the pestilence breeding
sun would be impossible.
"The Herero nation is dead, the sue
cess of German warfare undisputed,"
cables the murderer Throta to the
kaiser.
Towards the end of their journey
Schweinitz's column encountered 200
Hereros, the last sorry remnants OF
the once proud nation. They were
trying TO make their way into British
territory. Fourteen of them were
killed. The rest escaped.
The government organs continue to
lash themselves into a white heat be-
cause the British permitted some
Hereros to find an asylum in their
territory-because they would not al
low Throta to kill all by bullets or
thirst. But private letters from Africa
say that the English simply followed
the dictates of civilization, "irrespec-
tive of the German bullets" They
also say that the German colonial
problem is more hopeless than ever.

Here's a Pendleton case to prove it:
H. A. Thompson, retired, who lives
on Stonewall Jackson street, says:
MY kidneys troubled me by spells
for 10 years and at such time with
a steady dull aching across my back.
1 used large quantities of various
kinds of medicines said to be good
for it, but they never benefited me
enough so that 1 could notice it. Fin
ally 1 got a box of Doan's Kidney
Pills at the Brock & McComas Co

backache, but cured it permanently

When asked about the progress of
the work on the extension of the road
from Council toward Meadows, Mr.
Heigho said five miles had been
made ready for the rails. There had
been delay in getting rails shipped
but a shipment was to be made this

1t was not the intention to attempt
to keep the grading work far ahead of
the track. Mr.. Heigho said it was
impossible to predict how far they
would get this fall. The work would
not be carried on in the snow, but
fair progress was being made and n
good showing would he made if bad
weather should hold off Many teams

SCHOOL DISTRICT ROW.
College Place and Whitman DO Not
Wish to Consolidate.


Wish to Consolidate.
Determined opposition to the pro-
posed annexation of the Whitman
school district to College Place district
developed at yesterdays meeting of
the county board of commissioners,
when a half dozen residents of the
Whitman district, accompanied by At
torney oscar Cain, entered a protest
against the action of the school su-
perintendent in consolidating the two
districts, says the Walla Walla States
man.
Whitman district lies west of Walla
Walla about six miles and joins to
College Place district. 1t was origin
ally proposed to do away with the
school of Whitman and convey the
pupils to College Place in wagons.
This aroused so much antagonism that
the plan was abandoned for the time
being, pending the settlement Of the
matter in a hearing before the COM
missloners which was set for this
afternoon. The outcome of the pro-
test is problematlcal.

VIII Prosecute Indian Student.

a charge of larceny wfh today be
preferred against William Cauther,
the Indian student who was arrested
on Saturday of last week for stealing
a suit of clothes from the commissary
department of the training school at
Chemawa, which he tried to sell in
this city says the Salem Statesman.
Cauther wes caught by Sheriff Culver,
who inquired into his past record be-
fore swearing out a complaint as the
officers were inclined to be lenient
with the young man, providing his
past record was found to be clear. The
investigation, however, revealed the
fact that the student had been in sim
liar scrapes before, so the officers
have decided to prosecute him.
