himself while the guards adjusted the

the officials on the scaffold and the
newspaper men underneath. The moose

ing Out Details.
TO HAVE BRoNCHo BUSTER CONTEST
SUB-COMMITTEES ARE TO BE
ANNOUNCED NEXT WEEK
BY CHAIRMAN.

One of the features being arranged
by the Fourth of July committee for
the celebration is a ''broncho buster
contest. The committee is now cor
responding with number of noted
range riders in the state with the hope
of inducing them to come to Walla
Walla and give an exhibition of their
skill in riding wild horses. This feat
has proven to be quite successful
wherever introduced, and no doubt it
will be a big drawing card for the
Walla Walla celebration. A valuable
prize is to be given to the winner of
the contest.
The general committee expects to
hold a meeting next week at which
time further details of the days pro-
gram will be worked out. The sub
committees will also be announced at
the meeting.

county and this boanl is going TO see
that it gets it."
Deputy Painter was called in and
questioned as to the cost of making
the city assessment He estimated
that it was worth 1925 to make up the
rolls during the years that real estate
was not taken, and SITS in years that
real estate was assessed. AS to the
city's share of the cost of making the
assessments he could not give an esti-
mate. At this point Morrow spoke up
and said: Jim, don't you think the
county has something coming?"
Yes, l do" Assessor Bergman
frankly replied. Il would just as soon
pay the county as to put on another
deputy at my own expense
We'll, how much do you think the
county has coming?" was the next
question.
II shocid say ABOUT $780," the asses
sor replied, after doing a little figur-
ing.
well, If you will give your check
for 500 and put a deputy on to finish
the city books 1 think it will be all
right" Chairman Morrow said. The
other two members assented and the
incident closed.

AGED Murderer Hanged at State
Penitentiary This Morning.
PROTESTED AGAINST HIS EXECUTION
ON GALLOWS CLAIMED THAT HE
WAS MORE siNNED AGAINST
THAN SHINING.

This execution is premature and is
not right A greater injustice il being
done me and my people than 1 ever
have DONE
With the black cap drawn tightly
over his head and with death but few
seconds off, A. A. Armstrong stood on
the scaff0.I in the penitentiary yarcs
this morning and protested against his
execution. Armstrong; voice coming
muffled through the black cap sounded
like a voice from the tomb. Before the
last word had hardly dropped from his
lips the trap was sprung and Arm
strong hung limp at the end of the
rope The trap was sprung at 5:26
and 10 minutes later Armstrong was
pronounced dead. His neck was broken.
The hanging of Armstrong this
morning was particularly trying on
the prison officials The old man up to
the last minute believed that Governor
Mead would commute his sentence or
at least grant him reprieve and when
Prison Chaplain LeCornu informed
him soon after daybreak that there
was no hope for him, Armstrong was
greatly agitated at isn't right. 1t isn't
Justice" he declared.
Passed Bad Night.
Armstrong was removed to the priS-
on hospital at o'clock last night and
the death watch placed over him. The
old man passed a bad night and did
not go to sleep until after two o'clock
this morning. He awoke about 4
o'clock and talked with Prison Chap
lain LeCornu. He was still hopeful
that Governor Mead would extend him
Gecutive clemency. AS time dragged
along and no word that meant life
10 him was received he grew nervous
quarters His nervousness increased as
the hour of the execution drew nearer
and nearer and when told that break
fast was ready said he did not feel
hungry. He ate a couple of eggs, how
ever, and drank a cup of coffee.
He inquired several times if any
word had been received. At o'clock
Armstrong seemed to give up hope and
told the prison officials that he was
resigned to his fate, although it was a
cruel injustice.
March to the Scaffold.
At SPA the march to the scaffold
was commenced. Warden KEGS led the
solemn procession Next came Arm
strong, supported by Prison Chaplain
LeCornu and a penitentiary guard
The physicians and other prison Off
cals brought up the rear. Although
nearly 60 years of age and greatly
emaciated by his long confinement
Armstrong trudged steadily along to-
ward the fatal steps. The newspa-
per men were stationed just in the
rear of the hospital and as Armstrong
passed by he courteously spoke to each
of them. The salutations were re-
turned.
Armstrong mounted the steps OF the
scafrold with deliberation and stepped

M|llERs ARE THE CHIEF BUYERS
Little Demand for Wheat Except in
Limited Quantities for Milling
Purposes.

The local wheat situation continues
as heretofore reported, says the West
Coast Trade, a wheat authority pub
lished at Tacoma.
In this market there are regular
sales of small parcels. but only on
milling account, and the volume of
business is limited, with values con-
trolled largely by the demand as 1t de-
velops. Some business is reported at
the interior in a larger way, and it Is
stated that several good parcels of
wheat have been taken for export, but
the trend of current quotations from
abroad does not appear to justify any
extensive purchases for foreign ship
men, There is not much wheat offer
ing. While there are fair holdings in
the interior, the aggregate is compar-
atively small, and the carry-over will
apparently be largely required by the
mills before the new crop is avail
able.
Local receipts during the week were
60 cars, or nearly 10000 bushels, while
for the month of May the aggregate
was 331 cars, or 375.O23 bushels, and
for the first nine months Of the crop
year to June 1, 12,29O,S17 bushels had
been inspected at this point, with re-
ceipts at Spokane of 1.111,243 bushels
and Seattle approximately 100000
bushels, an aggregate of 21,4OO,0OO
bushels at the three inspection points.
Rains in All Grain Sections.
Heavy rains have fallen throughout
practically the entire grain belt and
the wheat is looking well, though still
needing more warm sunshine to slim
ulate growth. It is still too early to
hazard a guess at the result of the
harvest, though present indications
are favorable to crop well up to the
record Of last season.
Prices were firmer early in the week
but have dropped Sack to about the
figures heretofore prevailing. at 75c
for club and 72c for bluestem.
Expert Shorroek Hers-E. G. Shor-
rock, head of the Seattle accounting
firm that exported the city books. ar
rived from Seattle this morning to
look over the report Of w. H. Slime
who was employed to find $500 surplus

Seattle experts were unable to account
for at the time they exported his
books. The council sad an understand
ing with Mr.. Shorrock that he was to
be given an opportunity of looking over
the report before it was made public.
Be a Fine Depot-Plats of the new
depot and terminal grounds that the o.
r. & N. will construct in the western
part Of the city soon were filed In
Clerk Hills office today in connec-
ton with condemnation proceedings
