RUSHING WALLOWA BRANCH.
o. II. &.N. Will Have Trains Into
Joseph by July 1.

Elgin, Nov. 3.-Grade work on the
Wallowa extension of the o. R. & n.
is progressing very satisfactorily. In
the canyon the grade from the fish
hatchery to Victor's, distance of
about six miles, is finished. The force
that has been at work on this section
has been transferred to points above
Victor's and from the latter point
eastward four camps are established.
From the end of the finished grade
from Elgin to the junction of the Wal
Iowa to the fish hatchery a distance
of six miles, the work is estimated to
be half done.
The firm of Mears & Gould have
taken a sub-contract of three miles
at the upper end of the canyon and
they put in n considerable force this
week. ]. NJ. Mitchell has the con-
tract for grading between Enterprise
and Joseph, and he also, has big
working force. In the lower valley
there is quite a stretch of finished
grade just this side of the town of
Wallowa, and three miles are finished
between the latter point and Lostine.
A great deal of the valley portion
of the grade is light, and at the pres
ent rate of progress the heavy work
in the canyon will soon be well in
hand. 1t is considered quite probable
that trains will be running into WAL
Iowa valley, II not all the way to
Joseph, by the first of next July.

Washington Nov. "Details OF
the raiding Of a government pack
train by the only party of Utes now
running loose, have arrived. The sup
plies were destined for the camp OF
the Tenth and Sixth cavalry near Ar
vada, Wyo.
According to Driver James Forgen,
no Indians were In sight until bunch
of about 100 mounted redskins sud-
denly dashed from a defile in the
hills and surrounded him. There was
little noise outside Of few sharp
yells in the nature of commands, and
while several Indians kept Forgen
under their rifles. the balance looted
his wagon train OF 5000 pounds OF
flDuy, the SACKS of which were strap
ped to the cayuses of the utes, who
then disappeared into the hills.
AS the result of the raiding of the
supply train. the troopers at Arvada
are in need, and operations looking
TO n chase of the Utes are practically
at a standstill until supplies can be
had. More supply trains will be sent
out from Arvada at once. The troops
from Keogh with supplies are now at
Ashland, en- route to the camp of the
Tenth near Moofhead.

Seattle, Nov. 3.-The shingle mills
of the state are closing down for so
days, beginning December %, if the
plans of the executive board of the
Shingle Mills Bureau can be carried

able reports have been received to in

the close down have been set, begin
ming December 22 and ending Febru-
ary 2S. This will give all mills a
chance to clean up and get in shape

of the executive board it is said to be
practically decided upon for the dates
named.

Virginia and Monroe Collide.

Norfolk, Nov. 3.-The Virginia,
while passing up to the Norfolk navy
yard was rarlmed on the starboard
quarter by the Old Dominion steam
ship Monroe coming in from New
York. The vessels came together with
considerable force, resulting in the
Gearing of the battleship and dis
placing some of her guns and fixtures.
The stem and several bottom plates
of the Monroe were stove in.
Both vessels were steaming slowly
up the river, the Virginia leading.
The warship suddenly came to a
standstill and the Monroe could not be
stopped in time to avoid a collision,
although reversed. Neither ship has
given out an official account, al
though apparently the Virginia was
to blame either from. an accident to
the mahcinery ar a misunderstanding
OF signals.

Washington, Nov. 3.-President
Roosevelt is running today in many
states. His name is not on the bal
lot, but his record and principles are
being used to bring people to the
polls.
Although an off year, the presi-
dents interest is shown by his send
ing cabinet members to all parts of
the country. the necessity of a con-
gress favorable to him being para

The greatest interest centers in New
York. II appears the efforts to save
the state from Hearst will be sue
cessful. Hearst is still a quantity with
which Hughes must reckon, but all
signs on the surface point TO a land
slide overwhelming the editor. It is
by no means certain, but the best pre-
diction that can be made today IA

Suspicion That Lake and Larlxins
Killed Several Men.

Kennewick, Nov. 3.-Lively suspi-
cions are entertained by Franklin and
Benton county authorities that several
mysterious murders along the Snake
and Columbia rivers the past two
months will be traced to Jacob Lake,
the outlaw killed in Wednesday
nights battle below Kennewick, and
young Walter Larkin, the other out
law in Jail at Prosser, charged with
the murder. of City Marshal Mike Clio
yer Of Kennewick and Deputy Sheriff
Joe Hosley of Prosser.
Since Wednesday nights fight, Of
ficers of the two counties have started
an investigation into the movements
Of Lake and young Larkins, which
they confidently believe will result in
showing that the pair have been part
of gang of hold-up men and thugs
preying on laborers employed on the
north bank road since construction
work started nearly year ago.

flee Receipts.

Sales Of postage stamps, postcards,
stamped envelopes and newspaper
wrappers at the main window of the
p0stoffice yesterday amounted to s4,-
600, the largest single days record

flee. This amount does not include
the sales made at the remaining 26
stations scattered throughout the city

made.
Coming more than a month before
the busy holiday season the record is
considered remarkable and is taken by
Postmaster Mimic as evidence of the
great growth of the city. The sales
yesterday were between 5000 and
s7Oc greater than those of December
., 1905, when the sales were the
greatest up to yesterday in any one
day in the history of the local office.

Washington, Nov. SIT is stated
on hiGh authority today the govern
tations to Japan on account of the
arrest of the officer found sketching

indiscreet."
One army officer says he doesn't
care if foreigners do manage to sketch
the forts, as it will only show them the
futility of trying to capture them.

Talk Is Cheap.

This is the season OF the year when
the newspapers and everybody else
talk good roads. perhaps for the reas-
on that it is at this time we can APP
p%reciate the story of the farmer who
picks up a hat in the road only to
discover the owner beneath. who.
though promptly acknowledging his
predicament, protests that his team,
wagon and load Of marketing under
him are somewhat deeper in the mire
than he is in the mud. 1t is another
case of the Arkansaw squatter who
could not rapair his roof because it
was a-rainin' and when it wasn't
a-rainin' my house is as dry as any
bodys.' Conclusion: Talk is
cheap. "Make hay COR roads) while
