themselves on the wisdom of
their course. Nearly all of Or
egon's wool clip of this year has
been shipped from the state.
The following report conveys an
idea of market conditions:
Reports received from mer-
chants who have wool to offer in
dicate a decided awakening of in
terest in the market. The great
er part of the actual business has
been done by the woolen mills,
and their activity is gratifying
to holders of clothing woods.
The worsted mills, however, are
showing considerable interest,
and are closely watching every
move made by both wool men
and buyers. Their attitude
promises further business before
long. Duplicate orders are be-
ginning to come in, but the mills
are unable to handle them; in
fact, they cannot attend to their
original business. Besides this,
the heavy weight season is fast
approaching, and while some
mills have large stocks, others
have not. Many of these mills
will not wait for the opening of
the heavy weights, but will an
ticipate their wants. Represen-
tatives of the Arlington and
Wanskuck mills have been oper-
ating while the Americans buy
er's are preparing for action.
The Wanskuck is credited, ac-
cording to report, with the pur-
chase OF some territory and Ore
gon woods, as we'll as 900, 900
pounds Of Ohio fine delaine, at
37H cents.
The woolen mills have bought
lines of territory, California and
Texas woods, and, on the whole,
have been quite active. With
the inability of the worsted peo-
pie to meet the demand, a steady
and noticeable improvement in
woolen business is apparent, and
dealers feel cheerful over the
prospect of disposing of .thei,
clothing woods, which have beer
so long on hands.
Territory staple woods have
sold we'll, and while some large
transfers have been made, the
greater part of the trading has
been done in comparatively
small amounts of Wyoming
Idaho, Utah and Nevadas. Half
bloods sold at 72 cents strong
Secured woods are easier in price
and not moving to the exten
that they were two weeks ago
Owners that have been holding
at high prices are now willing te
do business on a lower basis
California and Texas eigh
months woods have been more
active, and a small amount o
Eastern Oregon has changed
hands. Pulled woods have beer
in more demand, especially OF
fine grades.

Bio Rock DRILLING Contest.

II PasO, Texas, Sept 25.-One OF
the biggest miners rock drilling con
tests ever held in the west is planned
as one Of the features of the coming
meeting of the American Mining con
gress in this city on November IA.
These contests are very novel and at
tract the best drilleTs from the yari-
Gus hig camps of the country and have
always brought big crowds 10 this sec
tion whenever given. As the prizes
will be large and the best driliers will
be attracted thereby. it is expected
that this event alone will attract a
large number of people 10 the con
gress. At the last drilling contest in
this city a worlds record was esrab-
lished, which is still unbroken.

NOVEL COURT DECISION

A suit was brought against the
Southern Pacific Railway company for
$4,000 damages on account of the
death of a woman thrown from a buggy
by reason of her horse taking fright
from "a train passing on an overhead
stone and steel structure. II was al

bell or whistle was given at the cross

court has o%yerruled the demurrer and
the case will go on trial. Under the
ruling, the railways will have 10 give

The Brotherhood of Railway Car
men of America have decided to hold
their next biennial convention IN Chr
cago.
Charles n. Sumner. the chief
engineer of the Moffatt road, who
was south, has returned to Colorado.
Mr.. Sumner was formerly Connected
with the Ell Paso & Northeastern.
The Deming Graphic says: 1t is
reported that Trainmaster Smith of
the Santa Fe is o o to accept a posi-
ton with the Southwestern company.
and that Mr.. Ridley will succeed him
as trainmaster.
The Chieftain says: Agent 1nomas
Jaques says that the Santa Fe sold
about $50 tickets during the week
from SocOrro to the Albuquerque ter
ritorial fair and return. This is a
pretty good showing for Socorro,
The Pennsylvania railroad has aban-
doned its idea of laying a six-track
line between Philadelphia and New
York. Bushes is heavy enough to
warrant this number of tracks, but
they would cause endles i%nconven-
fence.
The New Mexican says: c. w.

the Santa Fe railway, with headquar-
tels at Albuquerque, accompanied by
Mrs. Cook and child, arrived in the
city Saturday noon and are registered
at the Claire.

Instructions have been issued by
the Pennsylvania railroad that bag
gage cars must be placed ahead of
all passenger coaches on all trains,
whether the e is need for them or not.
This is done in order to save lives in
collisions.
Corrected figures show that the
Santa Fe system carried 1864 pas

of the hundreds of overhead crossings

A NEW WRINKLE TO
CATCH SCALPERS.
Santa Fe officials, in the relent-
less war that they are waging on the
ticket scalpers, are considering the
advisability of using a new kind of
envelope in which to place tickets.
and which will prevent their sale to
and by scalpers.
The proposed envelope is of peculiar
construction. 1t is so arranged as 10
be sealed from within, leaving the
outside surface perfectly square and
smooth. 1t is practically impossible
to open it without defacing it in some
way.
1t is the idea of the officials to have
the conductor on the train taking up
the last outgoing coupon on a ticket
to seal the return portion in an en-
yelOpe, which must not be opened eX-
cept by the conductor on the return
journey, If opened by any one else
the ticket will not be honOred for
passage.

gagged in bitter warfare-of words
over the county printing. Editor
Boardman had 1t cinched once, or
thought he did, but the board of COM
missioners rescinded the awarding
order and called for more explicit
bids. Both papers seem determined
that the public shall be placed in
full possession of all facts in the
case, whether they desire to read
them or not. The scrap is undig-
nified, to say the least. Col. Board
man said in the Bulletin: The Pros
ser Knocker, this week. at least,
should be in its element. Having
knocked about everything of interest
to Prosser during the past year. it
will now begin to hammer the Bulle-
tin. which has contributed, to some
extent, to the present prosperity of

ways on the side Of tearing down
what others are endeavoring to

Commissioners Would Not Recede.

The board of commissioners last
week decided to ignore the petition
of Jay Sedgewick. made on behalf Of
the Northern Pacific. to reduce the
assessed valuation Of the company's
tracks in this county from 1920
to $1,000 per mile. The board in
vestigated the claims Of Mr.. Sedge-
wick thoroughly, but decided that the
assessment was fair and that 1t
should stand. Another commend
able act was the refusal by the board
to grant removal of Frank Martins
saloon license, Martins saloon being
at Mabton. 1t is believed that this
refusal indicates the future policy
of the board in regard to granting
saloon licenses in Tie county. The
board appointed as delegates to the
National Irrigation congress to be
held in Portland on Aug. 21st to
oath, to represent Yakima. county.

On the. Roll OF Honor.


The roll of honor of the national
banks of the United States is a table
prepared by the New York Financier
from the statement made by the con-
troller of the currency, the state
ments made being published in a
large volume by the government. To
secure place on the roll of honor"
a bank must show surplus and un-
divided profits equal to or in excess
of its capital. According to the last
annual report of the controller of the
currency, there were SAP banks in
operation under national charters.
OF these only TAT are entitled to posi-
tions on the roll of honor. Seven of
the latter only in this state entitled
to rank in this roll of honor" and
among them is the Yakima National
bank in North Yakima. The other
six are: First National, Walla Wal
la; First National, Hoquiam; Wash
ington National. Seattle (which is
twenty-second on the list; Capital
National of Olympia; Baker Boyer
national, Walla Walla; and First
National, Everett. Yakima's bank
ing institutions are among the solid
est, soundest and most capaply man
aged In the west.
