CHAFING AT DELAY.

siowness In Awarding Contract by o. II.
& N. Causing Mnch Conjecture.
An Elgin dispatch says as there has
been no contract given out by the o.
r. d N. Co. for the Wallowa exten.
sion beyond the junction of the Wal
Iowa river. the people of that valley
are wondering what is causing the de-
lay. as the contract was to have been
awarded on January 5.
Contractor McCabe. who has the
contract of the work from Elgin to
the mouth Of the Wallowa, was a
bidder for the remaining portion, and
be has received no word in regard to
the bids submitted, has not been ad-
vised of the cause of the delay, and
knows of no reason thereof. The be-
lief prevails in some sections Of Wal
Iowa that as Esoon as the o. r. q N.
finds that it has the Cook PROPOSE
tion safely eliminated the company
will take its own time in reaching
Wallowa. On the other hand it is
represented that there is no special
hurry; the weather conditions have
been such and the engineering work is
in such shape, that no active opera.
ton could go on FOR several weeks.
There has been official assurance time
and again that the Elgin branch
would be extended to Joseph during
/ the present year. More than $l,000,-
900 has been appropriated for the pur-
pose and II miles of the grade
through difficult section of the route
has been practically completed.

"Well, we will make good" said

District Attorney Phelps then
spoke against the admission of the

Mr. Funk should be cross examined
concerning the $1,000 transaction. but
that the books were not admissible in

The court ruled, II think these

"May it please the court, !" said Fee,
II offered to show this book because it

figures inserted"
II will withdraw my objection and

Umatilla :Sheepmen Apply TO Court for
Officlal's Removal.
The Umatilla Woolgrowers' associa-
tion held an interesting meeting Sat
urday at Pendleton The question of
the establishment of dipping watts at
Meacham or Kamela was discus ssed.
G. J. Mills, live stock agent for the 0.
r. & NJ, was present, with Drs.
Hutchinson, Lantz and Lytle federal
inspectors. In the afternoon about 30
of the members waited upon Judge H.
J. Bean and through their secretary
Mr.. Smythe, presented charges aginst
Stock Inspector John E. Bean and
asked for his removal. They charge
incompetency on the part Of the in.
spector alleging that his eyesight is
such that it is impossible for him to
detect scab should it exist III their
fiocks and that he has been negligent
in visiting the fiocks and making the
proper inspection AS consequence
the disease is increasing in Uma-
tilla county. Mr.. Rugg, Of Rugg
Bros, stated that no inspection of his
flock had been made for two years
and that during that time he had re-
ceived his certificates from the inspec-
tor by mail.
Inspector Bean denied that such
was the case and stated that he had
paid several visits to the various focks
in his district, except in lcalities
where he had deputy to look after
the work. The court asked if there
were any specific cases where scab
was known to exist and no attention
paid to the matter by the inspector.
But among those present none were
able to make specific charges. This,
it is thought, will have to be shown
before the association will be able
to secure Mr.. Beams removal. The
name of Alonzo Knots was presented
as the choice of the convention for
stock inspector in place of Mr.. Bean.
That the county court has decided
upon the removal of Bean was an
nounced by Commissioner Gilliland at
the sheepmen's meeting Saturday
evening. The news was appreciated
by score or more Of representative
sheepmen present, for they were a
unit in asking that such action be
taken.

BOYS SQUARE UP WITH
THE OLD CHINAMAN

The boys who smashed windows by
throwing rocks at the house occupied
by Charley, the Ohinaman, have been
apprehended by Marshal Gholson.

disposed to do what was fair, and in
consideration of their parents, Mar
shal Gholson says he felt disposed for
thds time not to press the case against
them.
