ROOSEVELT is A CANDIDATE
SAYS CONGRESSMAN TOWNE

Los ANGELES, Dec. 19.-Theodore
Roosevelt is candidate for president
of the United States despite his origi-
nal statement and the reiteratior.
thereof" declares former Congressman
Charles A. Towne. Il may say that if
the plan he has in mind is carried out
he can put it entirely up to the national
convention that dominates him.
mo plan was ever more carefully
evolved i'm my Judgment, than this
third term. The convention is to be
stampeded for Roosevelt and the unan-
imous nomination will compel him to
accept.
There isn't any Taft candidacy and
the president has known it for months.
The only candidacy that has disturbed
him is the Cortelyou one and Taft is
merely kept in the field to kill that
land to hold stampede votes for ROose-
velt."

Dead drunk and lying on his back

unknown man was discovered this

tell his rescurers that he was only

LITTLE DOING IN WHEAT
TENDENCY OF MARKET is FOR
HIGHER PRICE BUT FEW
SALES ARE MADE.

With buyers practically out of the
market little was doing in wheat to-
day and local sales in the aggregate
did not amount to over few thou
sand bushels The West Coast Trade,
commenting on the situation this week,
says:
THE tendency of wheat prices is
somewhat higher. Recent sales have
ranged above SIC, and holders Of
wheat seem disinclined at present to
accept even cent below that,
though a number of sales are reported
to have taken place between the two
Figures.
The bearish influences are the ap-
parent preference of the Liverpool
market for the Argentine and Austria
liam grain, which is being largely con-
tracted for there, and, locally, the in
convenience to operations caused by
present banking conditions. Among
holders of wheat, conditions are looked
upon as promising rise in the near
future rather than decline. when the
sentimental influence of financial
troubles shall have worn off and bet
ter credit conditions obtain.
Wheat shipments for the week have
again been large and a number of
carriers are at present in port for
grain

If the papers of Walla Walla

The above statement was made to

Waila Walla's leading citizens who has
been one of the prime factors in the
controversy between the farmers and
grain men since the first trouble arose

orbitant charge Oh grain storage.
The farmers. While organized to a
certain extent, are not of sufficient
strength to gain their demands unless
they combine and fight together. Nat
urally. therefore, they look to the local
papers for support. Some of the most
influential grain men of the couLty'
several OF whom are residents of Wal

Portland and San Francisco shippers
regarding the matter of shipping their
gain direct to these ports. A meeting OF
the farmers will be called Saturday

movement being made in some quar-

a deep, shrewd plot TO solidify the op-

nominated i'm the same manner that
Bryan secured the nomination in 1896.
