HOW POOR FIDO Persisted.
Igorrottes at Portland Fair Caught,
Killed and Ate Dog.

PORTLAND. Ore, Sept. 11.-Twen-
tyfive head hunting Igorrotes from
the wilds of the island of Luzon par
took of a dog supper the first day af-
ter their arrival at the Lewis and
Clark exposition last week. The
savages were hungry for dog, having
been travelling by land and water for
nearly two months, without the OPP
portunity of cooking and eating a
single Fido.
When they arrived at their village
near the Trail, on the exposition
grounds, they got out their tomtoms
and enjoyed a dance in celebration
of their safe arrival. Then the big
chiefs began looking about for a dog.
After some difficulty a small cur We
captured and turned over to the Igor
rotes who slaughtered the animal in
the presence of a large crowd, cut
the carcass up and boiled it in a big
pot Near ~ another pot containing
rice was sizzling over the fire, ana
when the meal was ready large
chunks of dog and bountiful punches
of rice were served to each Igorrote
man. The seven women in the party
were not permitted to eat of the dog,
as the Igorrotes do not consider their
women sufficiently brave to partake
of that favorite morsel. The men eat
dog because they like it and also be-
cause they believe that it makes them
brave.
The Igorrotes will dance and eat
dog every day from now until the
close of the exposition. The savages
in this party are not the ones who
were at ST. Louis, with three excep-
tions. One of the st. Louis contin-
gent is Ontaero, the interpreter, who
speaks fair English. Antaero went
back to his people last fall and told
them wonderful tales of America,
and he was delighted to return.

Would Buy Lewiston Bonds.

At a meeting of the city council
last niEnt, G. A. Hastings, as the au-
horned agent of Rolling & Sons, of
Denver and Boston, offered to the
council a proposition for the pur-
chase of the city bonds, amounting
to $62,50 which had been refused by
the American Banking company of
Kansas City. Mr.. Hastings, who was
formerly a member of the council,
and whose work as a member of that
body resulted in many steps forward
in the city's progress, explained to the
council that he was prepared to make
a proposition for the purchase of the
bonds, regardless of any action of the
bond buyers.

ANkENY AND PILES ARRIVE ON
THE SOUND AND DISCUSS
LEGISLATION.
Do Not Expect to Finish Tour of the
State Much Before the First
Of October.

On tour of the state that is to
include every county within it's bor-
ders, United States Senators Levi p.
| Ankeny and Samuel H. Piles arrived
in Tacoma yesterday unannaunced
| and a day ahead of scheduled time.
and during the late afternoon and
evening were entertained by Con-
gresham Francis w. Cushman and
officers and members of the chamber
of commerce, says the Tacoma
Ledger.
Both Senator Ankeny and Senator
Piles have been out in this state since
the first of the month, during which
time they have visited a number of
counties and many towns for the
purpose Of meeting their constituents
and making personal Investigations
along lines upon which they will be
called upon to act when congress
convenes. Their tour of the state 10
only just begun, however, as their
itinerary calls for a visit to every
county in the state and Senator Piles
pleted before the middle of October.
Since the first of the present month
Senators Ankeny and Piles have visit
ed Wahkiakum, Cowltz, Lewis, Paci-
fic, Thurston, Mason and Pierce coun-
ties, and in each of these large coun-
ties from two to four or five towns
have been visited. mucn of the jour-
ney being covered overland by team.
Senator Piles Discusses Trip.
Il am just keeping one of my CAM
paign pledges said Senator Piles, in
speaking of the trip. cat the time I
was making the campaign, declared
that if elected, that 1 would visit all
sections of the state and acquaint
myself personally with the needs Of
the different sections and the wants
of my constituents. incidentally, I
might say that l am finding more
pleasure in carrying out this plan than
had anticipated. Senator Ankeny
counties already, and it is surprising
how mucn better one can inform
himself regarding questions by per-
sonal Investigations. We find there
is much work for the Washington
delegation to look after in the next
congress, and 1 do not know of any
state delegation that will be better
prepared to present the different
propositions than our own. Every
member of the delegation seems to
take a personal interest in the af-
fairs of every section of the state,
and by working in harmony We will
undoubtedly be able to accomplish
more tnan we would by working as
individuals"
Ankeny Pleased With Trip.
Senator Ankeny also expressed
nlmSeI as pledSeu Will Tic ulp anu
said he had every reason to believe
the state of Washington would fare
well at the hands of congress this
winter He was of the opinion that
the visit to this part of the country
by many influential people of the east,
including many members of congress,
will result in making it easier to Sc
cure legislation for this section.

Had Good Yield.

Samuel Gamblers, one of our most
farmers, who resides east of Bickle-
ton, has just had $50 acres of grain
threshed, wheat and oats, mostly
spring sown grain. The wheat went
80 bushels to the acre, and the oats
threshed 20 bushels to the acre. The
grain was a fine quality Of bluestem
and is the largest yield we have heard
of so far for spring sown grain in this
country.

Speaks for Farmers.

Mr. Slime writes as follows:
Acting as spokesman for various
farmers and interested parties, I de-
sire to call your attention to what
seems a very unjust proceeding on
the part of the Washington Flour Mil
lers' association.
I'VE take exceptions particularly to
the ruling of the association on smut
ty wheat Heretofore it has been
that smutty wheat should not be
locked exceeding cents per bushel,
and often not so much as cents.
The association has made the mini
mum this year not less than cents,
and it may be 20 cents. 1t is also
to be the rule that if there is any
foreign matter or anything else that
discolors the wheat, or the same is
slightly smudged, it is to be regarded
as smutty, and is to be sold as such.
'It seems to US that this ruling Is
altogether too drastic, and an attempt
is being made to grind us between
the upper and neither millstones, all
of which we most emphatically pro-
test against

w. II. Slime Addresses a Letter to W.
n. Reed Asking That the Grain
Commission Stand by Growers.


Der of Walla Walla farmers has al
dressed a letter to w. H. Reed, a
member of the state grain commits
sion protesting against the code of
regulations issued by the Washing
ton Flour Millers' association to it's
members as a guide in buying wheat.
Mr.. Slime asks that the state grain
commission stand between the farm
ers of the state and the Washington
Flour Millers' association.
This association, consisting of mil
lers, exporters and wheat dealers of
the Puget sound region, was organ
lied some time ago, and issued a
code of regulations for the guidance
of it's members in buying wheat. The
publication of these regulations
has aroused considerable opposition
among the wheat growers of the east
side country, who particularly object
to the regulations regarding smutty
wheat Mr. Reed said that he would
bring Mr. Shines let .er before the
state commission at is annual meet
ing to be held at Tacoma today.

Have Good Wheat.


''The fact is, we have a large crop
of good wheat this year. and the mill
lers and exporters think that they can
combine and dictate most any terms
that they please, and we want the
state board to stand behind us AID
protect us insofar as it is in their
power so to do.
eve understand that the board
convenes on the 18th instant, and at
that time we would thank you to see
if it is not possible to enforce the old
rule in regard to dockage on smutty
wheat, so that the old-time rates for
the same will again prevail.
''The great part of the wheat raised
in this county will grade as No. 1
when compared with the standards as
they stood last year. We hope that
the board will see its way clear to
establish last years grades, and that
you will do what you can for u.s."
MiIIers' Regulations.
The regulation of the Millers' AS
sociation on smutty wheat is as fol-
lows:
"Smutty wheat-Where there is
a large quantity Of smut balls in the
wheat, even if they are not broken
and the wheat has no Indication of
smut on the ends of the berries, it will
be considered smutty wheat, because
it cannot be handled in any way
without smudging. The minimum
discount for smutty wheat will be
5 cents per bushel, and from that up
to 20 cents. If the wheat is free from
foreign matter and without smut
balls. but smudged on the end of the
berry even slightly, it will be consid-
cred smutty wheat"
