SHIELDS NONE

Mayor Shields had no occasion for
any one to say that he shields them
from the rays Of the sun by putting
them in the county Jail basement,
nor did he shield them from tempta-
ton during the day. The reason he
did not was that only one of us was
before him and that one was so well
blessed with this worlds goods that
he really had enough coin to pay
fine of three dollars and the costs.

Did not know whether the gown was
taken out of the basket before the
other things first. At the time the
witness said she said something
about blood on the gown, but could
not remember what. She noticed
hut one blood spot on the gown. She
wrung some of the clothes next
morning but did not notice whether
the gown was in it. She laid the
clothes on the ground and emptied

Under ordinary circumstances and
as. a rule, Is or 20 minutes would be
all necessary for blood to clot. not
more than 25 minutes. Blood un-

On cross examination he said the
less the quantity of blood the slower

coagulates rapidly. The witness
spoke from his personal observation
and not from any authorities on

Mexico, Mo, stopped off yesterday
morning to visit Mr.. and Mrs. p. p.
Collier on their way to the Lewis and
Clark fair Mr.. Kabrich has travelled
over the northwest three times be-

changes that have been made in the
appearance of the country by settle
ment and improvement. He says
that farming land in Audrian county.
Missouri in which Mexico is situated,
has increased in value from $50 to $55
per acre in the past two years, through
better methods of farming and a
change in crops. A great amount of
stock is raised in that county and
prices for stock and grains of all kinds
are excellent.

ADDING TO THE EXHIBIT.
Fine Specimens of Wheat, Fruit and
Vegetables Being Received at Uma-

tilla County Booth.
A letter from Dan C. Bowman. in
charge of the agricultural exhibit of
Umatilla county at the Lewis and
Clark fair, says that an excellent ex-
hibit of White Winter and Blue barley
grown by William Vancil and which
surpasses anything in that line at the
fair has just been received. Also an
exhibit of VOLTS Hybrid wheat, cross
between the Red Russian and the Red
Chaff and grown by c. Hopson in the
east end of Umatilla county, collected
and sent in by q. A. Hobbs.
He says that an exhibit of Red Rus
sian wheat grown by Purl Bowman
and surprising any exhibit of that kinl
in the building. has been received and
is eliciting favorable mention among
all who inspect it.
other grains and vegetables are be-
ing received from S. H. Forshaw, who
is collecting constantly and he says
the greatest need now is perishable
fruits and berries to give the exhibit
live and up-to-date appearance. Far
mers and fruit raisers are earnestly
requested to supply cherries and ber-
ries that are in season. This class of
exhibits must be renewed every two or
three days as they become wilted and
decayed and in order to keep the ex-
hibit frsh and clean in appearance
fruit must be sent in constantly.
The decorations of Umatilla coun-
TVS booth are uniaue and 1t is one of
the most attractive exhibits there, and
will be made one of the very best IN
the building if attention is paid TO
shipping fresh fruits and vegetables
from here every week.
1t will be impossible for the attend
ants to make it appear all right unless
they are supplied with the exhibits.
AS the stuff becomes old and stale 1t
must be replaced with fresh articles.

secured work purchase bedding, Sec

WON'T KEEP THEIR WORD.

Irresponsible Saloon Men Open Up on
Sunday Morning in Violation of
Their Contracts.
Although all the saloon men of this
city have signed an agreement to
close their places of business from
Saturday night until l p. m. Sunday,
several of the irresponsible keepers of
joints on Main street have wilfully vi
olated their contract and are opening
their places both in front and rear
during Sunday forenoons. Owing to
this violation of agreement on part of
these saloons, it is probable that the
Sunday closing law will be enforced
by the officials. 1t was hoped that
the saloons would all live up to the
agreement and avoid any action on
the part of the officers, but they have
repeatedly broken their word and
agreement.

acquired big foundation upon which

said to include several powerful stock
market millionaires who went down
with him in his efforts to boost the
price of May wheat beyond $3.50 a
bushel. The rumor that Gates is
again the principal figure in cam
paign to bull wheat is given color by
the belief that the Wall street men
who stood by him until the deal shift
ed into the more experienced hands Of
the Armour workers did not lose as
much in their May transactions as
reports indicated. Gates is said to be
moving as quietly as possible and
operating through more obscure brok-

those associated with him in his new
endeavor.

An English inventor has devised
a perfect substitute for leather which
can be used for boots, shoes and for
every other purpose for which leather
is employed. 1t is being extensively
used in England for walking shoes
on account of its GOODNESS and its
lightness. The new tissue is called
wolff 1t is said to be more durable
than leather and also more waterproof,
while at the same time more porous,
which makes it nonconductor, and
to large degree obviates the necessi-
ty for wearing rubbers.

Twenty-Five of the thirty-three
counties of the state have more re-
publican than democrat officers. In
four counties the offices are equally
divided between the two parties. Con-
sequently there are only four counties
in the state which have more demo
Gratis in Office than republicans. Only
three counties in the state have
officers who are all members of the
same political party. This is due to
the fact that local conditions always
play prominent part in county selec-
tions, and one party may capture an
office or two even though the other
has very great majority on state or
national tickets. The three solid
counties are Clackamas, Marion and
Wasco, whose officers are all republi-
cans Sherman and Washington coun-
ties practically belong in the same list,
for with the exception of its one prohi-
bition all of Sherman's officers are re-
publicans, and Washington county
has ten republican officers and one
who is classed as unionist

The Baker City Democrat gives a
word of warning and advice to its
readers which is worthy of being re-
printed in every county paper in Ore
gon. Readers of the Press are urgent
ly requested to read and remember
this bit of advice for it will mean dol
lars and cents saved in the end. The
Democrat says:
Baker county people who contem-
plate going to the Lewis and Clark
fair and who are saving their money
to make purchases in Portland rather
than at home under the belief that
better prices can be obtained in Port
ladn, are laboring under great mis-
take. 1t is safe to say that those who
are foolish enough to do this will be
the victims.of "gold brick" 7" Just
as fashionable goods and as good
quality can be obtained from home
merchants and at less price than in
Portland, especially when the Port
land dealers take advantage Of the op-
portunity offered by big crowds at the
fair to give purchasers any old thing
at exorbitant prices What do they
care? They will never see you again
and II You are sucker enough to fall
into their net they will not lcse the
chance to fleece you good and strong.
Take the advice of the Democrat and
buy Of your home dealer whom you
know is ON the square. This will
keep your money at home and add to
home prosperity. The Lord knows
enough money will go from this COM
iilssity for railroad fares without
dumping much more into the laps of
the department stores.

There is much to be learned about
roads and road making. No man can
seriously study the question without
becoming an enthusiast. Knowledge
makes us masters If we would have
and appreciate good roads, we must
know how to build them. The task
is not an insurmountable one. Mod

without great expenditure of labor
and money, as under the old methods.
