Butchers Hair Was Like wagner's.

Wagner, German folk tale relates,
became afflicted with headache and
determined to have his hair cut. He
accordingly arranged with a barber
to perform the operation on certain
day. That worthy resolved to make
q good thing of it, and accordingly
informed all his customers of Wag-
Ier's impending sacrifice.
Most of them paid him a certain
sum down. To the barber's horror,
Nine. Wagner superintended the cut
ting, and when it was over appro.
priated the whole of the coveted locks
The barber, in despair, confessed
that he had sold them many times
over, whereupon madam suggested
that the butcher had hair much like
Wagner's.
And the story goes that that night
half Dresden slept with the butchers
hair under its pillow.

SPECTOR BEAN FINDS Vepv
LITTLE scAs AMONG THE
WALLA WALLA BANDS
Has Finished Inspecting Some 5ooco
Sheep Now Being Driven to the
Summer Range

According to Stock Inspector J.
Bean OF Umatilla county, sheep owned
by Waila Walla parties are singular,v
free from scab and kindred diseases
Inspector Bean has just completed the
inspection of several bands of valley
sheep which are now being driven to
the Umatilla ranges for summer graz
ing. The inspection was made under
the Oregon law which requires that
all stock and sheep driven into that
state for grazing purposes must first
be passed upon by regularly appoint
ed inspector, whose duty it is to bar
any stock showing the effects of con-
tagious diseases.
AS about $4,000 head Of sheep were
wintered in the Walla Walla valley
this year, Inspector Bean found it
quite task to personally investigate
each band. With one or two exceptions
every band of sheep which was winter
ed in the valley has been taken to the
summer grazing grounds.

PENDLETON, May 1.-THE bar of
Pendleton is practically unanimous in
it's recommendation of James A. Fee
for federal judge. A petition address,
ed to President Roosevelt asking for
the appointment of Fee as successor
to Judge c. y. Bellinger, has been cir
culated among the members of the le-
gal profession in this city, and prac
tically all have signed it. Several of
to be favorable to Judge Fees appoint
ment or nave signified their willing
ness to sign the petition, which is soon
to be forwarded to the president. The
action of the Pendleton bar was begun
without the knowledge of Judge Fee,
who is at present in Heppner, but who
was Informed of the matter yesterday
Judge Fee is considered the most ell
igibIe man in Eastern Oregon for this
honorable position. AS is set forth in
the petition he filled the office of judge
of this district eight years with re-
markable ability His second nomina
ton by the republicans was endorsed
by the democratic convention which
is an honor given to very few men,
AS presidential elector for Roosevelt
he led the ticket in this state, and was
given the honor of representing the
electoral vote at Washington. He is
a man of high character and has
splendid legal mind. Eastern Oregon
will take great interest in his candi-
dacy, and many legal supporters will
mis- friends desire for him.

CROP OF 1905 ESTIMATED AT 35,-
100000 BUSHELS AND WORTH
ABOUT s3o,0oo,ooo
State Year Book Which Is in the
Hands of Printer

Washington's wheat crop this year,
if equal to the average yield, will be
35, 600, 900 bushels, worth $30,000,000 as
the market is today, says State Statis-
tician George M. Allen in the state
year book now in the hands of the
printer.
Considerable space in the book is
devoted to agriculture, which is treat
ed under separate heads, such as
of Western Washington oats which
stand six feet nigh, and yield 100 BUSH
els to the acre.
Of hops, an industry equally divid-
ed between the eastern and western
parts of the state, he reports an av-
erage yield of one ton per acre, ana
the average cost of production and
marketing about seven cents a pound.
This yields a profit of 5000 to $3.50 an
acre to the grower.
Setting forth the opportunities here
for the egg and poultry business, the
statistician points out that but half
of the eggs consumed here are pro-
duced in the state, while the price at
low 20 cents a dozen, and often stands
at from 40 to so cents for months at
time.
The chapter devoted to cereals is
accompanied by statistical tables on
production by counties, etc. 1t is re-
cited that lone of the remarkable fea-
lures of wheat raising is the fact that
the yield seems to increase yearly with
the cultivation of the SOIL" He points
out how the combined harvester is be-
coming generally used. The last crop
of wheat reached the average of PSI
bushels per acre, the highest of any
state in the Union.
Last year the state produced 4,O00,-
900 bushels of barley, of which Column
bia and Garfield counties furnished
100000 bushels. The quality was so
high that the crop was nearly all sold
to brewers, so barley from other states
had to be imported for feed.
OF flax it is said: From expert
ments already made it is believed
Western Washington can produce
fiber capable of being made into
linen to rival the very best of Irish
iinenS'

TRUSTS MUST PAY TAXES
New Jersey Demands Support From
the "ChiIdren" She Has Reared

TRENTON, N. j., May 17.-Attorney
General McCarter has commenced pro-
ceedings against upwards of 100 cor
porations for non-payment of state
taxes. Action is brought following the
usual custom of endeavoring to en-
force collection of all corporation
taxes one year in arrears, but there are
nearly 5000 companies ITO proceed
against this year, and already action
has been brought in about 800 Of the
cases.
This forms the first step in the for
fixture of the charters of persistent
delinquents. The proceedings are be-
gun by the attorney general and two
years are given the concerns to pay
up. Then if the tax is still unpaid,
the governor officially declares thu
charters forfeited, and a proclamation
to that effect is published.

TIDE TURNS FROM WEST
Center of Population Now Working in
EasterIy Direction

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Popula4
ton experts of the census bureau are
inclined to the belief that the center
of population of the United States,
since the foundation of the republic,
has turned and is now headed east
ward. If this be true, the fact is of
interest as Indicating that the move
ment of population towards the east
and the southeast is greater than the
movement towards the west. 1t is ex-
pected that censuses to be taken in
a dozen states during May and June
will throw light on the present loca-
ton of the center of population, which
the census of 1900 placed six miles to
the southeast of Columbus, Ind.
Because of the increase of popula-
ton in eastern cities, especially New
York, and a steady trend of growth
in the southeastern Atlantic seaboard
states, the population experts have
formed the opinion that if there is
westward movement of the center 1t
is very slight and that If its direction
mas not been reversed there is a pos
sibility that it will be before the end
of the present decade.
The only fact which they find to
combat this theory is the rapid growth
of population in the state of WASH
ington, which partly offsets a mucn
larger growth in the eastern states.

"Wrona Number" Scared the Bandits

Fruita, Col, May ia mistake by

phone operator, who rang up the First
National bank, instead of the city mar
shall, prevented the bank from being
robbed of $4,000, and also prevented
the capture of the safe crackers. The
robbers had blown off the outer door
of the safe and were about to shatter
the inner steel plate when the tele-
phone rang and frightened them away
A roomer near the bank had seen the
flash of a dark lantern in the bank
and reported it to the telephone office
with a request that the marshal be
summoned. The girl became nervous

Members Are Pro Railroad.


In the main the members Of the sem
ate committee are pro-railroad in
sympathy, and this has been Shown in
variety of ways. 1t seems as if the
committee is doing it's best to prepare
brief for the railroad. The resolu-
ton authorizing the committee to sit
is couched in the broadest possible
language. The committee is told to
go into government rate making, the
private car evil, the midnight rate
question, the terminal railroad charges
and all other grievances. Instead, it
has confined itself within narrow linn
it's.
Apparently, it started out to show
that the Esch-Townsend proposition
was unconstitutional, but soon aband-
oned this line of attack, and Attorney
General Mooiy's opinion set that ques-
ton officially at rest. Then the COM
the proposed legislation is against the
public policy Nothing has been
brought out bearing on the other nu-
merous matters which the committee
was charged to investigate, and adj
journment is near. There are almost
enough railroad men in waiting to con-
sumo the time between now and then.
The senate committee on interstate
commerce could have served its
friends, the railroads, much more eff
fectively, if it had proceeded along the
broad lines of it's resolution of instruc-
tons. The effect of it's present policy
will be to retard the development of
sentiment against the government rate
making, but despite such a handicap,
that sentiment will probably increase
as the public becomes better informed.

Queer Opposition Unity

suspicion, and today it was definitely

been due to the railways, which has
