j. w. SULLIVAN SELLS OUT.
Bond Brothers Successors To Sullivan
Il Bond, In Schmidt Building.

A deal of considerable interest I'm
local mercantile circles is the purchase
by Bond Brothers of ]. w. Sullivan's
interests in the store of Sullivan &
Bond. This trade was consummated
Saturday, and henceforth the store
will be conducted by Charles h. and
Willard Bond, under the name of Bond
Bros, SUCCESSORS to sullivan & Bond.
The store OF sullivan & Bond was
started here i'm 1903 in a small room
on the east side of Main street, and
from there the store moved temporar-
lily to a room in the Matlock- Brown
field building over year ago, and the
stock was greatly enlarged. From
there they moved to the present loca-
ton upon the completion OF the John
Schmidt building, and the business
was still further expanded. 1t is the
intention of Bond Bros. to conduct
their business at the same place and
along the same lines as in the past. in
which enterprise they have the best
wishes of the business community.
While Mr.. Sullivan. the retiring
partner. has not yet decided upon
what he will do. it is understood that
he viii engage in something less con-
filming than store work, and that he
will remain in Pendleton.

HOTEL MUSIC SYNDICATE.
Organization TO Furnish Orchestras
for List of Big Hotels.

The negotiations which have been
going on for the past two months in
the forming of the Artists Concerts

Seattle News.
The hotels included in the circuit
are the Spokane. in Spokane, the Ho-
tel Butler here, the Tacoma in Ia
coma, the Oregon in Portland, the st.
Francis in San Francisco, and the
Van Ness i'm Los Angeles, with a like
lihood of Vancouver and Victoria be-
ing included, as well as the new hotel
now nearing completion, built by Mrs
Herman Oelrichs in San Francisco.
The general manager will in al
probability be j. Louis MacEvCy, the
musical manager who has handled
most of the vocal and instrumental
artists of the world. His powers viii
be absolute, and everything pertain
ing to the musical attractions of the
hotel circuit will be under his control
Every detail will be arranged under
his direction. Mr.. MacEvOy will have
agents in Paris and London, whose
duties it will be to look up the instru
mental and vocal novelties and sub
NIT them for his decision.
The grills of the hotels in the cir
cult will thus have the very best II
the musical world to offer their pa
irons. Within a few days the fina
settlements will be made and th'
Coast Hotel Artists concerts will b'
fully launched.

DIsGUsTED WITH MARKETS.
George Chandler of Baker County,
Writes of Cattle Condition.

George Chandler of Baker City, for
mer member of the state agricultural
board and one of the most prominent
breeders of fine cattle in eastern
Oregon, writes to the Rural Spirit as
follows, concerning cattle and market
conditions in Oregon:
need new bulls, but the necessity
becomes much greater by conditions
which prevail in the west. and espe-
cially in Portland, says Mr.. Chandler.
see by your last quotations that
prime steers the very best, such as
bring to cents in Chicago, bring in
Portland the magnificent price of Ia
to 1-2.
There is no use for the breeders of
the North Pacific to fool away time
and money bree ding something good
and by this l mean flesh and quality,
when we get nothing for it. We are
farced to breed for pounds, no diff
ference how coarse. The more bone
the better; we must breed such as we
can mature on wind and scenery:
something we can run on sagebrush
in summer and winter on straw, for
if we allow them to cost us any money
we can never get it back.
There is no use fighting against such
odds. We must breed what the mar
ket requires; or in other words. that
in which there is profit. Taking this
view of the situation shall cease try
ing to breed for flesh and quality and
| breed for scale and bone. So l am
going east after that class of bulls
and am looking for partner in car
fare and hope you will, through your
accommodating paper, find some one
who will join me.

DEMANDS PROPERTY RIGHTS.
Mrs. Switzlcr Files an Amended Peti.
tlon for Divorce.

An amended complaint has been
filed in the circuit court by Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Switzler against her husband,
Edwin Switzler. In the new COM
plant facts stating grounds for di-
vorce are given virtually the same as
in the complaint filed last summer,
and which was never withdrawn by
the plaintiff. However, the portion
of the complaint referring to the
property is different.
In the amended complaint the state
ment is made that the defendant is
the owner OF property in this city
and in Portland valued at $4,000,
and also that he has money invested
in government contracts. An order
restraining the defendant from SELL
ing, mortgaging or transferring any
of this real property pending the set
tlement OF the case, is asked of the
court.

MEXICAN RANGE QUESTION.
Land Suitable for Grazing Can Be
Bought for SO to 81 Per Acre.

The Mexican Herald contains the
following valuable data furnished by
an authority on domestic and import
cattle, the statement being particular
ly interesting in view of the fact that
cattle raising is becoming an industry
of paramount Importance in the re-
public:
Land can be bought which is in
every way suitable for running cattle
at from 81 to IS per acre, uncleared,
and at from $12 to $40 per acre, clear
ed. Clearing and burning land costs
at the rate of from S12 to SIS per
acre. After it is cleared and planted
in fattening grasses of the country it
is necessary to clear it of woods and
small growth once every year for some
years, and this work, it is estimated,
costs from 12 to Is cents per acre
per year.
Two kinds of fattening grasses are
the best for fattening in this section.
They are para grass and guinea grass.
Para seems to be the favorite of the
two. These grasses grow the year
around, and when eaten off, all that
is necessary to rejuvenate the pas
lures is to give them a short rest. The
yearly work of clearing is best done
just before the rainy season or in the
months of March, April or May. A
para pasture is said to be little more
expensive to keep up than a guinea
grass pasture. Occasional burning
over of the pastures is a good thing.
The older a pasture gets the easier it
is to maintain and keep clear. A 10
year-old pasture requires very little
attention.
Young cows for breeding purposes
can be bought at from $26 to $40 per
head. A thoroughbred registered bull
from the United States costs from
$500 TO $3.50 laid down on the ranch.
But a good grade bull, fit for all
breeding purposes, can be bought in
for from $50 to $500. These bulls
are young and a fine calf crop invar-
iably comes from crossing the heavy
breeds of the north with the Mexi-
can cattle.

FIGHT FOR CHAIRNIANSHIP.
Senator Carter of Montana, Would BE
on Irrigation Committee.

Senator Carter of Montana is after
the craftsmanship of the senate COM
mittee on the irrigation and reclama-
ton of ard lands, which also is COW
cred by Senator Ankeny, is the report
that comes from Washington city.
Mr.. Carter is not at present a mem
ber of that committee, but he has
filed an application for one of the five
vacancies, and for the craftsmanship.
Senator Hansbrough of those left on
the old committee, is at the head of
the line but he has the craftsmanship
of the public lands committee and
does not wish to change.
Senator Ankeny comes next, but his
appointment will be vigorously op-
posed by those aspiring for the chair
manship. All members of the COM
mittee, with the exception of Senator
German. will probably be western
men. 1t is generally believed, how
ever, that Senator Ankeny will secure
the much coveted place.

In the pohce court this morning
three Indians. all visitors here from
the Yakima reservation, were charged
with being drunk, and were each given
the usual sentence of So or three days
in Jail.

found by Marshal Coffman. When
the latter placed him under arrest
Parkes made an attempt to fight the
marshal and was gently tapped into
submission by the latter's billy.

ROBBED IN AN ALLEY.
Case Compromised and Plaintiff Did
Not Appear.

Complaint was made TO the police
yesterday by man named Johnson
that he had been robbed of $40 yes
terday morning, the crime having
been committed in an alley of the red
light district
According to Johnson's story $50
was taken from his pocket by wo-
man who was later found to be Mrs.
Richard Lockard. According to Mar
shall Coffman, she is the same woman
who was wanted here as witness
against Mark Nelson and forfeited a
$40 bond by not appearing. The wo-
man and her husband were located
last night by the officers, and the
former placed under arrest. How
ever, as Johnson said he did not wish
TO remain here to appear in trial,
the case was settled by portion of
the money being returned.

Out of this whole amount there were
but about 400 cords cut this season.
The open winter last year was poor
one for the wood dealer and during
the warm fall this year little wood
has been used. The largest holders
are Eugene Tausick, of Walla Walla,
and Henry Kopetke. of Pendleton.
Little wood is shipped from that
vicinity to La Grarde as the freight
from over the summit is 25 cents a
cord more than the down hill pull.
What wood that is shipped to this
place all comes from east of Kamela." !"
