An invention which promises to be
of great benefit to the farmers of the
inland empire has been perfected by
j. c, Wright, of the Pendleton Iron
Works. 1t is n patent hoedown for
use on threshers, and by means Of the
same the services of six men and four
horses may be dispensed with, there
by making a saving of s25 per day in
the operation of thresher.
For many months Mr.. Wright work.
ed on his scheme for an invention
that would do away with the labor on
the hoedown, and he now believes he
has solved the problem. He has plac-
ed one of his devices on a separator
located near the, iron works, and has
found that 1t works successfully. The
machinery is so constructed that 1t
will take the headings from the stack
and feed the same to the separator,
the service of nut one man being re-
quired. The apparatus may be at
tached to any kind of a stationary
thresher. but of course cannot be used
on n combine.
Mr.. Wright has applied for patents
upon his device and will have them
manufactured in the iron works here.
He expects to have a number of the
attachments, which he calls the Tax
payer Hoedown, in use during the
coming harvest so that the practical
bility Of the thing may be thoroughly
tested. 1t is such a simple device
and so easily operated, that those who
have seen it declare it cannot helI
being a success. The levers which
work the hoedown may be worked by
the use of but one finger, and the at
tachment is so made that it can take
headings either from stack, or from
a header bed.
Aside from his hoedown invention
Mr.. Wright has also devised man!
other labor-saving machines upol
which he has secured patents, or ha
them pending. During nearly all
his life he has devoted his time t
such work, but the mechanical hoe
down is his best achievement.

Title to Umatilla Land.

The first appearance of Represen-
tative Hermann in this session of con-
gress is noted in the dispatches from
Washington on Saturday. when, 1t is
mentioned that he reported Senator
Futon's bill granting title to the To-
Gators of grazing lands on the Una
tilla reservation. 1t was necessary
for some one to report the measure
to the house, and Hermann was thus
forced into prominence.

Will Cantrill, one of the employees
on the section at Pleasant Valley. was
picked up beside the o. r. & N. track
near Durkee yesterday morning In
very serious condition and brought to
the hospital in this city, where he
is receiving medical attendance.
Cantril 1t seems, had attempted

backward with such force that his
hack struck the corner of the fol-
lowing car. shattering the bones OF
his spinal column and otherwise Sc

crushed under the wheels. He re-
manned in an unconscious condition
beside the track until farmer hap
pened along and picked him up. He
was brought to the hospital here and
DIR. Mcdaniel attended him. The doc
tor says Cantrill is in a very critical
condition as the bones in his bach
are badly shattered and he Is suffer

GRAND LODGE REDMEN

Grand Chief of Records, and the Great
Sennap, Now Reside Here-Dele-
gates to Marshfield Were Royalty
Entertained, and Say the Grand
Lodge Was a Great SuccesS-First
Grand Lodge Ever Convened Mt That
Place.
At the recent session of the grand
lodge of Redmen held at Marshfield,
two Pendleton men were honored by
being elected to grand lodge offices.
Roy w, Ritner, grand chief of records,
was reelected to that position by a
unanimous vote, and James A. Devlin,
was chosen as great sennap. By being
elected to his position Mr.. Devlin' was
placed in line to go through the
grand lodge chairs should he desire to

morning after having attended the
grand lodge session. He went from
Marshfield to Drain by stage. and by
so doing reached home in advance Of
the others in the Pendleton delega-
ton, who are coming back to Port
land by steamer.
The session at Marshfield was one
of the most successful the Redmen
have ever held, and much of the
credit for the same is given to the
people of Marshfield. According to
Mr.. Ritner the citizens of the Coos
Bay'town gave the lodge men royal
reception and made their stay in
Marshfield a very pleasant one. The
nf ha mi
purpose of entertaining the visitors,
ana this was expended in giving boat
ing trips and otherwise entertaining
the visitors. Each member of the
grand lodge was presented with sill
yer spoon made as souvenir of the
| occasion. 1t was the first time q
grand lodge ever convened at Marsh
field, and the reputation established
should be an inducement for other or
ders to meet there.
In coming from Marshfield to the
railroad over two days is required fol
the trip, which is partly by boat anC
partly by stage. However Mr.. Rit
ner says the people of that section
have every confidence that railroad
will be constructed at once, and ar,
planning for the same. When tn
road is completed to Marshfield tn
trip from Drain to that place may b
made in four hours.

PELTED WITH RICE.
Charles Fulton and Miss Ethel Hayes,
Victims OF a Plot of Their Friends
at the Depot This Morning.


Until Charles Fulton and Miss
Ethel Hayes, Of Portland. are really
married and are compelled to submit
to the wicked plots Of their many
friends, they will never have such an
other experience as they had at the
o. r. & N. depot this morning as they
started for Portland.
Mr.. Fulton and Miss Hayes had
planned to leave for Portland this
morning and unawares to them a
number OF their friends filled their
pockets with rice and when the depot
platform was reached, they showered
the Young people with rice in such a
way that everyone thought It was a
bridal party. Even more rice than is
usually thrown for a newly-wedded
couple was scattered over the plat.
form and for few minutes while the
train waited Mr.. Fulton and Miss
Hayes submitted to practical Joke
which they will not soon forget
The Pullman car was filled with
guests and all thought it was bridal
party and doubtless the Joke lasted
all the way to Portland, as no one on
the car knew they were not married.

Liquor ON Reservation.

There are now IL prisoners in the
county Jail and nine of them are In
dians serving time for offences against
the federal law, mostly for taking
liquor on the reservation. For keep

most of the new amendments to the
constitution may be traced to the
same source.
Mr. U'Ren has been classed as a
| demagogue but the truth remains
that he has done all this work for his
pet theories without compensation
and to the neglect of his law practice
and at the same time he is a poor
man.
While the machine will attempt to
move heaven and earth to prevent his
candidacy or to belittle his services
to the state, the strong probabilities
are that Mr.. U'Ren will defeat both
Senator Fulton and Mr.. Moody and
will go before the people as the next
republican, candidate for the United
States senate.
Chamberlain for the Senate.
All this time the democrats are not
sitting supinely idle. They believe
that It will be easy Ia defeat Mr..
U'Ren not on a strict party basis, as
Mr.. U'Ren is not strong party man,
but one who claims to be Utopian in
politics. All the Indications point to
the conclusion that the democratic
candidate will be Governor George E.
Chamberlain.
If Governor Chamberlain consents
to become candidate there will
probably be no democratic opposition.
That will make the race at the gen.
eral election in June lie between
Governor Chamberlain and Mr..
U'Ren.
The best political thinkers in the
state believe that there is little doubt
that Governor Chamberlain would in
this event be elected. In fact It is
hardly probable that there is a man
In the state who can defeat George
Chamberlain for any office in the gift
of the Oregon people.

Going further into the same report
we find Oregon now ranks fifth in the
wool producing states, the output last
year being estimated at between 10
and 20 million pounds for the entire
state.
The average price to the grower
for the past season was 10 cents.
Valley wool shows a snrinkage in
securing of about so per cent, while
the eastern Oregon product loses as
much as 50 per cent, but the latter
is worth about 10 cents pound
more after being secured.
One remarkable feature about the
report is the showing that The Dalles
is now the smallest shipping point in
the state, being credited with but
100000 pounds, while it has been but
a short while since it was the second
largest shipping point in the United
States, being second only, and a close
one, TO Helena, Mont.

SMALL FARMS IN DEMAND.
Report of Labor Commissioner Shows
Good Tendency.

The increased values in real estate
are commented on in the report of
the state labor commissioner, now be-
ing compiled, which shows that small
farms are greatly in demand and the
time is approaching when the large
land owner will be forced to cut up
his holdings.
While the growth of values has
been large in the cities, suburban
property within a five-cent fare limit
shows the greatest Increase in de-
mand and in values. This also indi-
Gates a desirable situation as the peo-
pie now are being forced to the larger
centers of industry seek to keep as
far from the more congested districts
as circumstances will allow.
