Fourteenth is Coming.
Word was received here yesterday
that the Fourteenth Cavalry was under
orders to break camp and start home
today. They will reach Fort Walla
Walla the latter part of this month";
instead of the latter part of October
as had been planned. The rain, the
mud and the cold weather are too
much for the soldier boys and the Of
ficers were compelled to take cogniz-
ance of the discomfort
1t is believed the rain and mud has
forever killed off the speculative plans
to make American Lake the site Of a
brigade camp at the cost of millions
of dollars to have been expended by
the government.
The change makes good the claims
of Walla Walla as an ideal spot for a
brigade camp. The forthcoming re-
part, following the survey at Big Mea-
dows, now being made, will increase
the favorable comparison.

SHEEP ARE ORIvEl BACK OF LINES
DAWN BROTHERS HAD BAND IN
CATTLE TERRITORY BUT
LATER REMOVED

Chief Ranger J. NJ. Schmitz returned
late Saturday night from trip to the
Big Meadows, where he went to in
vestigate a conflict between DAWN
Brothers and the cattlenen over the
range on the headwarters of Mill creek
and the Walla Walla river.
81 found that DAWN Brothers have
been grazing one Of their bands on
cattle territory nearly all summer"
said Chief Ranger Schmitz. "The diff
ficulty was settled, however, by the
Davins driving their sheep into sheep
territory again. 1 don't look for any
further trouble in that quarter
Ranger Schmitz says the range In
the vicinity of the Big Meadows is In
fairly good condition. The ridges are
pretty we'll grazed over, but there
is lots of feed in the canyons and along
the creek bottoms.
Ranger Schmitz will leave in a day
or so for the Asotin district to inves-
tigate complaints from cattlemen that
the sheepmen are encroaching on their
territory.
There is bound to be more or less
trouble the first year owing to both the
cattle and sheep men not being fully
conversant with the lines," said Rang
er Schmitz .'By another year the
sheep and cattlemen should know
1heir respective districts. which will
probably put an end to complaints
such as have been frequently made
this season"

Commissioner M'CAW RETURNS HOME
SAYS RAILROADS MAY STANC

County Commissioner ]. n. McCaw
returned this morning from Olympia
where he attended the hearing of Wal

the state board of equalization Septem-
Der 5. He said:
" The board has arrived at no decis-
ion in regard to Walla Walla county's
assessment, but it will either be low
cred to conform with the assessment of
other counties in the eastern part Of
the state, Or the other counties will be
counties were assessed much higher
than any of the other counties on the
east side. The valuations will be
equalized, but just how soon 1t is
hard to say as the board has a vast
amount of work on hand"
Regarding railroad assessments Com
missioner McCaw said it seemed to be
the policy Of the state board TO let
the assessments stand as made by the
board Of equalization, although the
matter has not been formally decided
upon yet.
The state levy. Commissioner Nc
said. would probably be cOnsidera-
bly, lower than last year, but the state
board has not yet been able to deter
mine just how much. Several plans
have been suggested for lowering the
levy. State Auditor Claussen favors
reducing the gross valuations while
Chairman Rickwell is in favor of leav-
ing the high valuations and reducing
the levy.
