Are you going to Jalisco ?"

Are you going to Jalisco?"
That is common query in PEN
dleton, since the excursion to that
Mexican city was first planned a
month ago.
While they do not wish their names
made public, it is certain that a large
number of Pendleton people are go
ing to join the coming excursion to
Jalisco, Mexico, if that event is pull
ed, as scheduled. In May.
The excursion is being organized by
a Kansas City land and colonization
company which it is said has acquir-
ed tract of 10000 acres of land in
the suburbs of Jalisco, a beautiful
Mexican city on the western coast,
about 200 miles southwest of the City
Of Mexico,
The excursion is being organized in
connection with a lottery In which
this tract of 10000 acres is to be
drawn in lots of different sizes, from
tract consisting of 1000 acres, down
to town lot. There are to be no
blanks In the drawing, it is alleged,
but everyone taking membership in
the scheme will draw a tract of land
of some size.
As the excursion will consist of
about 10000. If the company can sign
up that many contracts, the question
of living accommodations, in a small,
slow-going Mexican town, Of but few
conveniences has been agitating the
minds of those intending to take the
trip.
Several Pendleton people are max
ing arrangements to take tents and
large supply of provisions to be used
in an emergency, should they find
that the prices of meals are extor-
tionate, or the Mexican hotel men in
cans for rooms and other accommo-
dations
| It has been promised by the colo
nization company that round trip
excursion rate of at least $50 would
be secured for this trip, the addition
al membership fee of $25 to accom-
pany exery excursion ticket. About
200 excursionists have signified their
intention of going from Walla Walla
and other Washington towns, and
nearly as many from Lewiston and
adjoining towns.
The excursion will probably leave
in May for the south, the route not
yet having been selected. 1t will re-
quire about six weeks to make the
trip.
\ The excursionists are mobilizing in
different states, and will be carried to
one central point, perhaps Denver, OF
Kansas City, to make the start to the
south. If this excursion is a success
the same company will open up a
large tract of farming land on the
same plan, further north, in the re-
public of Mexico, hoping. to induce
Americans to settle upon this tract
by the lottery route.

ADvENT1srs WILL NOT SELL.
College Place viii Not Become q
Mormon Center.

According to a number of leading
Adventists there is no foundation
whatever for the rumor that the COL,
lege building and other property
owned by the denomination at College
Place is to be sold to the Mormons,
says the Walla Walla Statesman.
T. Chabot, a resident of Walla
Walla, and one of the most promi-
nent members of the Adventist
church, said this morning to a repre-
sentative of the Evening Statesman:
There is not the least particle of
foundation for the rumor that the
Adventists are to sell their property
at College Place to the Mormons
From what understand the report
was started by one of the teachers of
the college. None of the officers of
the college know anything about the
proposed sale, and certainly II such
a sale was proposed they would have
been the first ones to have been ap-
preached by the intending purchas-
ers."

NEW WPOWER SOURCE
INNOVATION WILL BE
TRIED IN HARVESTING.
Expected to Greatly Reduce the Num-
ber of Horses to the Combine, by
Using Gasoline Engine TO Operate
the Header and Separator, Horses
Being Used Only for Getting the
Traction Energy.

During the coming harvest an ex-
pertinent is to be tried on several
combined harvesters in this county
that is of importance, and which, if
successful, may prove quite boon to
those owning such threshers.
There are many combines in the
county and by far the greater part
of them are run entirely by horses.
From 80 to SO horses are usually
needed to pull the thresher and to
operate the separator. Much of this
horse power is taken up in running
the heading and thresher part of the
machine, and altogether the outfit
is very unwieldly.
Now it is proposed to place gasoline
engines on the separators to furnish
power for the heading. and for run
ming the separators By doing this
it is thought the number of horses
required can be reduced by nearly
one-third, the machine run at less
expense and also be much more easily
handled.
A. Kunkel, who has made a close
study of the matter, is of the opinion
that the idea is good one, and prac-
tical. He is of the opinion that a
great saving can be made in the ex-
pense of running a combine, and that
the idea will be adopted.

this morning for Spokane. He had

The sergeant, with several privates.
was recently discharged from the post

The latter was not faithful to his

HIDAwAY SPRINGS OPALs.
Expert Opinions State They Are
Quite Valuable.

When william Scott came in from
Hidaway Springs yesterday he
brought with him several good spec
linens of opal taken from the ledge
near the springs. Two of these opals
were of good size, and one of them,
blue one, shows several different
shades of color. The ledge from
which the specimens were taken was
discovered last fall, and is about
half mile above Hidaway. Samples
from the mine have ben sent to Den
yer, and were there declared to be
worth from SO to $50 each. AS there
is said to be a whole mountain of the
same character as the ledge from
which the samples were taken, val
liable piece of property may some
day be developed there.
