While the scribe was on his trip
to RedstOne last week we saw coal
mines six feet in thickness, sticking
right out of the bluffs: fine, black
Ignite, the best in the world. We
also drove over miles and miles of
valley land, with the Big Muddy
meandering along III the middle, and
not d settlement or a house within
ten miles. The prairie grass of last
year was cured on the ground and
stuck a foot above the snow III many
places. In other places hay stacks
were as thick as they would be on
cultivated ground, cut from govern
ment land last summer and stacked
for future use. All this vast tract Of
the finest valley land in the world is
now open for filing, the survey having
been approved by The proper authori-
ties. Many hundreds Of families will

farmer of his best market for hay and
grain. Prices are better in Seattle and
Tacoma than in Portland, but the fall
ure to furnish cars to these points
is simply driving the farmer to the less
profitable Oregon market, where he is
not protected by state inspection as
to grades and weights and is more or
less at the mercy of the consignee.
"The feeling is so strong" said Mr..
Reed, "among the farmers on account
of the failure of the o. r. & n. to
grant a joint rate to the Sound that
some of them are hauling their wheat
in wagons several miles in order 10
ship it over the Northern Pacific to

His Own Manager.

81 am doing my own managing now.
Selig looked after my interest in the
picture business. l am going to do my
turn with the burlesque circuit, take
good long rest and then take on
some of the aspirants.
There is not much to tell about the
Goldfelds DEAL as most of the affair
was covered thoroughly in the news
papers. There were one or two funny
things that tickled me though. Just
back of the arena was a big ceme-
terry, and, while nothing was said
about it in the ring, it was sort Of
suggestive, battling as desperately as
we were out there in the desert, with
a graveyard not stones throw away,
and you know some of us colored fell
lows amt so strong for a cemetery
as we might be.
"Going up to Goldfelds, Governor
Sparks boarded the train and 1 was in
troduced to him. He was a jolly sort
of a chap, and when I parted COM
pany with him he remarked:
q" Now, Joe, you go up there and
get that fellow if you can. Nevada
isn't going to have any halfway affairs
out of this, and whichever one Of you
kills the other I'm going to pardon
him.
81 thought Of what the governor said
once during the fight as 1 caught sight
of the cemetery, and 1 just stepped in
and well, then was when 1 broke
this wing of mine. l thought that if
there was going to be any pardoning
done. l wanted that document to add
to my museum. Heap rather have that
pardon for mine than to have my wife
keeping a burial permit in that ceme-
tery for a souvenir of Joe"

State Grain Inspector j. w. ARA
smith and w. H. Reed, of Tacoma,
who, with D. F. Anderson. of Rosalia,
compose the state grain commission
We're in Seattle Tuesday on a visit to
Deputy Inspector Alexander Anderson,
says the Seattle acknowledgements.
Mr.. Arrasmith says the crop of
wheat in Washington this year will
not exceed 100000 bushels, accord
ing to his observations, as against
100000 bushels last year. The
grades have been fixed for this season
at So pounds for No. 1 Sc for No. 2
and "a for No. 8, the same as last
year. The wheat is averaging much
hot weather, which dried it up at a
time when the prospects for a heavy
yield of fat grain were good, and the
result will be a much larger proper
ton of No. and No. than last year.
Both Mr.. Arrasmith and Mr.. Reed
say that the o. R. & N. is not allow
ing a joint rate to the Sound cities,
either on wheat or on oats or other
grains. AS is known the road refused
to grant the rate on wheat and is now
fighting the case with the raiiroau
commission in the federal court.
Agreed to Rate on Grain.
"The o. r. & N. agreed to give the
farmers a joint rate with the Northern
Pacific on grains, other than wheat,
to Seattle and Tacoma" said Mr..
Reed, "In theory they are doing that.
Farmers living on the o. r & N. are
finding it next to impossible to get
cars for shipping hay or oats to the
Sound, while cars are furnished for
the wheat haul to Portland. The
farmers feel that this is the railroad
way of evading the joint-rate agree
ment Take the case of Thornton, for
instance. Thornton is on the o. r. &
N, about six miles from the Northern
Pacific. It is VIGOROUSLY impossible
to get cars from the o. r. & n. to
handle grain from Thornton to the

SHOWS FEW MARKS OF The BATTLE

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept 24.-Joe Cans
looking not day older than five or six
years ago, when he was moving down
the lightweights, is in Minneapolis and
is greeting the throngs who wish to
grasp his hand 3y extending the left
hand. He apologies to each and all,
and it seems that no further explain
alton is needed. In Minneapolis, where
they keep up with the boxing game,
the fans know how that right came to
be temporarily out of commission.
There is a lad resting up at Heges-
wisch or Guessitwhich. or something
of the kind in Illinois who knows, too.
Cans bears few marks of the forty
two rounds of milling with Nelson at
Goldfields on Labor day. His eyes
are a trifle discolored. but the swelling
has departed and he looks as trim and
presentable as ever. Nelson, however,
is still far from fair to look upon.
Those who met Cans for the first
time were surprised to find that the
man holding a worlu championship
| or two was quiet, mild hammered
negro boy. There is nothing in his
makeup to distinguish Joe Cans as
one of the most formidable pugilists
of the day. He is a sober chap, one
! who does not touch liquor or use to-
bacco, takes care Of himself and is
ft-spoken and gentlemanly in his de-
pertinent. 1t was this feature which
won him the admiration of the box
ing world during his stay and during
his battle at Goldfields.
81 am willing to meet Nelson again"
said Cans, "but this time I will die
tate the terms, and they are these:
He must meet me upon the same
terms as l was forced to accept in
the Goldfields bout. same division of

GAVE II BIG ADVANTAGE
Northern Pacific, Oregon Short
Line and Other Roads Paid
the Market Price

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 12.-Be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion today Attorney John T. March,
and tried to elicit testimony from
George L. Peck, general manager OF
the Pennsylvania lines west of Pitts
burg, showing that the Pennsylvania
got oil from the Galena Oil company
for eleven cents, when the listed price
was 81 cents.
Peck testified that he never owned
oil stock. He said he had heard that
other roads received rates about one
third of the invoice rate for lubricat-
ing oils for rolling stock. He said the
cost to the lines is about ten cents
while the market rate is twelve and
eight tenths cents. The commissioner
stated that the contracts Of the Oregon
Short line, Northern Pacific and other
roads read that they should receive
rates equal to the lowest market price.
It is now shown that the Pennsylvania
received low.r rates than the others,
so provision was made for the other
roads, which received the difference
between what they paid and what the
Pennsylvania paid.
