SHEEP wINTERIne WELL.
II. c. Adams Says Conditions Are
Ideal This Winter.

This has been an ideal winter for
the sheep industry" said Henry c..
Adams, prominent sheep man Of
Weston, who is in Walla Walla today.
Mr.. Adams is wintering several thou
sand head on the Walla Walla river.
I'VE have not been compelled to
feed as much as usual owing to the
mild winter Mr.. Adams said. Cattle
men are also finding it an ideal winter
for their stock and several thousand
head are being fed in the Walla Walla
river and Touchet countries this year.
Mr.. Adams states that the farmers
of the Weston neighborhood succeed
ed in getting in their fall wheat and
are confidently expecting good crops
this year.

from them even the little they did
collect. I have known them to ac-
cept notes for the initial fee, but this
affords no protection to the victim, as
such notes are quickly passed into the
hands of innocent holders. AS a mat
ter of fact, 1 suppose some of these
sible, but their contracts and forms
are full of unseen technicalities, behind
which they take refuge. The cost Of
prosecuting such concern would be
SO large that the average man charges
the amount up to experience and let's
it go at that, though 1 have not yet
decided to do that. Some Of these
concerns should be denied the use Of
the mails, and why merchants associa-
tons in states where there are organ
izations do not bring this about. can
not understand" .-.>,
Being asked If he did not think he
was a little severe, Mr.. Kaiser said:
Possibly I am. and if you wish to
place any business with such con-
Germ, don't let me influence you. How
ever, if you wish, you may look over
the stack of correspondence I have on
the matter, after which you will be In
a position to draw your own conclu-
sions., By the way, the same cour-
tesy will be extended to any other in
terested business man."

SAYS She WANTS JUSTICE
MRS. JONES GETS CHANGE OF
VENUE TO JUDGE HUFF.
MANS COURT.
Sensational Trial at College Place
Failed to Materiaiize Last
Night.

When the case of Mrs. Martha Jones,
charged with assault and battery on
the person of Tony Green. was called
by Judge Clark at College Place last
night the court room was filed to suf-
location with an eager crowd which
smelled from afar a sensation. The
ize, however, as Mrs. Jones insisted
that she be given fair and impartial
trial and to secure it asked for a
change of venue to Judge Huffman's
court.
Judge Clark was not adverse to
washing his hands of the affair and
lost little time in granting the request.
Mrs. Jones was brought back to the
county Jail after the proceedings,
where she will probably remain until
the return of Prosecuting Attorney
Wilson when she can be given a trial.
Mrs. Jones has retained Timothy
Paul and Frank Sharpstein as counsel
while Mr.. Green will be represented
by P. J. Cavanaugh and Prosecuting
Attorney Wilson. Fully thirty wit
nesses will be subpoenaed and one of
the most exciting trials ever in the
justice court is expected to result.
Mrs. Jones is charged with attempting
to shoot Mr.. Green with a 22-caliber
rifle during a melee at College Place
Monday night. Conflicting features of
a wide and varied nature are expected
to develop when the case comes to
trial.

WHAT FRED ". KAISER SAYS
ue TELLS OF HIS EXPERIENCE
WITH THE FOREIGN coLLEc-
TON AGENCIES.
Unable to Get From Thorn Bad Bills
That They Collected for His
Firm.

Have you ever had experience with
collection agencies?"s was asked Of F.
W. Kaser. of the Davis Kaiser COM
pany by representative of the
Statesman this morning.
Well, should say, yes. Expert
ence, though. is about all have ever
received-the agencies always got the
money"
How is that?" asked the reporter.
Well the proposition looks good on
its face. 1t is presented to you by
very plausible individual with scores
OF testimonials from bankers and bus
mess men, who agrees with you that
collection agencies have a deservedly
bad name. but insists that his concern
Is different, and that he has the doc
y uments to prove it. You are told that
for a certain advance fee and a GER
tain per cent of the amounts to be
collected for you. they will collect your
DID, lost, worthless accounts-accounts
that you consider of no value what
ever; further that they collect at least
tour times the amount of the fee aI-
Fanced by you. or return your fee at
the expiration of your contract. This
smooth individual enlarges on the re-
sponsihility Of his concern, shows you
elaoorately prepared literature includ-
ing an attractive. harmless looking
contract; ne assures you that his con-
Germ has offices in all the leading cit
les Of the United States and Canada
and that their methods are such that
'hey are enabled to collect debts eff
Iecuvely without offending the debtor,
and other similar claims. The result
is that if YOU sign a contract, you will
WIND up by including a lot of accounts
mat you do not consider lost At any
rate that is what I did, and in almost
Two years l have been unable to get

/ New SYSTEM IN v0GUE|
PURCHASE OF SUPPLIES FOR
COUNTY OFFICIALS MUST BE
SANCTIONED.
Require That Requisi-
tions Must BE Passed on for
All Supplies.

A new departure for the purchase
OF supplies by the county officials was
inaugurated this morning when the
county commissioners entered an order
that hereafter that all employees AMI
county officers must file acquisitions
for any and all supplies with the board.
II the board is not in session the re-
QUESTIONS are to be sanctioned by Au-
ditor Honeycutt.
Under the old system of purchasing
supplies each officer and employe was
allowed to purchase anything needed
but it developed that at least in one
instance the authority had been badly
abused, which led the board to make
the order stated. The order covers all
supplies, fixtures, books, stationery and
repairs and any and all merchandise
The board spent the day in auditing
bills against the county for last month.
The accounts were scrutinized closely
and in several instances where bills
seemed exorbitant the amounts were
cut down. Ex-County Commissioner
Smith filed bill for IS covering one
days salary and team hire for himself
in driving to town. The board cogi-
tated over the matter a few minutes
and Topped off 81 which represented
tha hire ~ tho team

The commissioners will spend to-
morrow viewing the old Donahue
bridge which crosses the Touchet near
Touchet station and also a new road
way which has been petitioned for.
The board will be driven to the. river
by a representative Of the Walla Wal
la Irrigation company, which is anx-
ious to secure a safe bridge across the
river. N 5s r..
Cut Nishtwateh Salary. III.
The commissioners this afternoon
reduced the salary of the night watch
employed in the county Jail from So
to $3.50 a day. The position is held
at present by Claude Berry. Spanish

not being able to be present. Mr.. Rey-
holds announced that the citizens
committee had chosen w. G. Coleman
as chairman Of the young mems COM
