make 10 pounds of pork, or from 70
to so cents per bushel for the wheat
fed. Now, a number OF our men do
not believe 1t can be done outside of
the experiment station. They think
the station men have some unique
way of stuffing the hog by hydraulic
power, or something of the sort
From experiments l have made I
see no reason why the farmer cannot
feed as well or better than the sta

AUTO LINE TO DAYTON.
Walla Walla People Interested in Sc
curing Trade.

President Fred w. Kaser of the
Commercial club last night brought
up the proposition of forming a COM
pany to run an auto car line from
Dayton to Walla Walla, in order that
the people of Dayton might make the
trip in one day, says the Walla Walla
Bulletin. Nothing was done, however,
as the plan was broached at late
hour, but this matter will be taken up
at the meeting Friday night.
II the plans as outlined are followed
out local business men will form a
company which will operate stages
between the cities, leaving Dayton
each morning and returning in the
evening after business hours Dayton
residents have been complaining for
years that they were unable to make
the trip in one day and in consequence
local merchants have been the losers.
The plans will be thoroughly dis
cussed at the next meeting of the club.

fraud cases, and that Judge william
II. Hunt will probably arrive in about
six weeks to settle the bill of excep-
tions in the Mays Jones' -Sorenson
case and to pass sentence upon Sem
ator Mays, convicted OF conspiracy to
defraud the government in the crea-
ton OF the Blue Mountains forest re-
serve case.
The time of Mr.. Heney's coming,
says Mr.. Bristol, will depend largely
upon what action congress takes on
the proposed creation OF a second
federal district in Oregon. Such an
arrangement he says, might change
the condition of affairs considerably
Mr.. Bristol said the calling of n
federal grand jury for oregon would
depend largely upon Judge Wolver-
toms convenience. Judge Wolverton
Is engrossed with the consideration of
submitted cases, and II is thought
that he will not be able for while
to give time to a grand jury. Mr..
Bristol, however, is anxious to call n
jury as soon as possible.
In San Francisco Mr.. Bristol held
several long conferences with Mr..
Heney, and the two went over the
Oregon land fraud situation thor
oughly. The fact that Mr.. Heney has
definitely announced his intention Of
returning to Oregon means that the
pending cases here will probably be
held In their present state until his
arrival.

PACKING LAW LIBRARY.
Judge HALEY in Readiness 70 Remove
to Portland.

Today Judge T. G. HALEY is ship
ping his law library from this city to
Portland, where it is to be used in
the office of Chamberlain, Thomas &
HALEY, 400 Chamber of Commerce
building. of which firm he is now a
member.
Judge HALEY is making the change
from this place into the larger field
in Portland, after IS years of prac-
tice before the Umatilla county bar.
Because of his long and successful
career in this city, he leaves it with
regret. In the lobby of the Hotel
Pendleton last night he talked inter-
estingly of his experience during the
early years of his practice in Pendle-
ton.
1t was in 1889 that T. G. HALEY
came here fresh from the Virginia
law school to grapple with the bunch
grass law problems and incidentally
with a very strong corps of lawyers.
At that time there were more attor-
neys in Umatilla county than at pres
ent, though the population of PEN
dleton was not half that of the pres
ent. The reason for the larger prac-
uce at that time, according to Judge
HALEY, was that the county was be-
ing rapidly settled and there was
much land business. while also there
was much more criminal work than
at present With the advancing years
the population of that county became
more settled, big wheat crops made
II unnecessary to foreclose mortgages
and in general way the people of
the county lost their former belliger-
ent tastes.
On his arrival in this county Mr..
HALEY found the following men en-
gagged in the practice of law: John ].
Balleray, now dead; D. w. Bailey,
who recently returned to the CITY:
Writ Minor. now OF Portland; H. ].
Bean. circuit Judge; r. j. Slater: John
A. Guyer, now OF Lewiston: James
Turner, dead; R. NJ. Turner, now Of
Silver City, N. M; j. e. Miller, now
in Texas; John C. Leasure, dead: w.
E. Crews, now at Juneau, Alaska:
Fred Page Tustin, dead; Thomas Fitz
Gerald; James A. Fee; William Par
son, now at Manila C. H. Carter;
Sam White, now of Baker City: L.
Vingard, now of Grangeville, Idaho:
j. E. Kirkland, of Milton; S. V. Knox.
of Weston; E. Depeatt, dead; Willard
Crawford; W. F. Butcher. now of Ba-
ker City; Mclaughlin, now dead:
William Ramsey, now of La Grande.
John P, Wager, now of Portland, and
Lucian Evarts, now dead.
Against those 2S men, many of
whom were noted for their legal abil-
ity, the young man from idaho had
to contend. In order to do so sue
cessfully required many days and
nights of hard work. This was given,
and today Judge HALEY declares that
what success he has met with in the
practice Of law was largely due to the
long hours Of hard studying to which
he applied himself during his early
days as lawyer.

Not to be daunted by the tie-up Of
trains and suspension of all kinds of
traffic between this city and Milton,
Rev. Fl. S. Shangle, pastor of the M.
f. church, south, of this city, who re-
sides in Milton, arrived on foot at
noon today, to make arrangements for
services at his church next Sunday
having walked from Adams this fore
noon and from Athena to Adams last
evening.
Finding that 1t was impossible to Sc
cure transportation by rail, team or
otherwise from Athena to this city,
he resolutely started to walk in last
night but was induced to remain over
night at Adams, continuing his jour-
ney this morning
He rode from Milton to Athena in
a wagon yesterday. but was unable to
find further conveyance in this direc-
ton.
According to Mr.. Shangle the
branch line of the o. r. & n. between
this city and Athena is badly damaged
in places and it is impossible to run
trains over 1t until repairs are made.
In speaking of his experience today
to the East oregonian he said he had
enjoyed the novelty of the trip. He
felt that he would rather walk the
entire distance from Milton to Pen
dleton, If possible to do so, than to
disappoint his congregation.
He will perhaps make arrangements
for the Sunday services in the church
here this evening. after which he will
go to La Grande to fill an appoint
ment there.

fully ward off the habit and attend
strictly 20 business.
Then through the inducement of
thoughtiess friends, or enemies in dis
guise, he would yield to his old habit
and drink heavily for several weeks.
Finally in 1902 he made a resolu-
tlon that he would leave Pendleton
and go among strangers where the
old associations would not attract
him, and accordingly ne started the
Pilot Rock Record and began a career
OF sohriety and business activity
which was a delight to his friends.
He built up a good business. his bril-
leading papers, he made friends rapid
Il and became one of the best citi-
zens end most progressive men in the
county.
He made the acquaintance of Mrs.
McAllister of Salem, and finally was
married TO her, founded a home and
was prospering. At one time, through
the solicitations of his wife and
through his own determination, ne
was on the point of uniting with the
church. His reformation or rather
his conquest of the drink habit SEEM
ed to be complete and permanent.
Then 1t was that number of Pen
dleton and Pilot Rock gamblers be-
gan to PLAN to win away from him the
small store of means which it was
known that he had put away. Know
ing his old weakness they successful
ly played upon him until he was final
ly induced to drink.
Even after his first drinking spell,
after his long period of sobriety he
was more determined than ever to
quit permanently. but he had yielded
once and It was easier to yield again
and the crusade of the gamblers for
his money was renewed at every op-
portunity.
He was bounded at every turn by
good fellows" The influences Of the
gamblers were stronger than those
which had held him up for almost
four years, and finally losing control
Of himself he plunged into his old
time habits, lost money here and
there, spent savings recklessly and
became a helpless victim to the gang
which had laid its plans for him.
Finally in disgust and desperation.
after having been repeatedly robbed.
and abused and while in
a crazed condition from intoxication,
he committed the act for which he is
now held.

MARRYING "ON CREDIT"
Walla Walla Justice Must Wait TIL
Groom Earns Fee.

Walla Walla Is becoming the mecca
for Oregon couples who have not the
price to pay the fee for being mar
ried, and who wish to obtain credit,
says the Walla Walla Statesman.
Judge Brents is making n name for
himself when 1t comes to tying the
knot without being paid the price.
John Palmer and Nora Reid, both
of Milton decided the time for them
had arrived when they should be
made man and wife. Recognizing the
advantages Walla walla furnishes
for those who are without means,
they decided that this city should be
the place where their matrimonial
ship could be launched. After secur-
ing marriage license for which they
must pay cash they began looking
for the proper person to marry them
who would give them credit.
Shortly before the time for the GER
emony, the groom applied to Judge
Brents of the superior court for
stand OFF, until such time as the
necessary amount could be earned.
The judge consented and soon the GAL
liant groom appeared with his blush
ing bride and the knot was tied. And
as the story goes. they lived happily
ever afterward"
A couple, whose names could not
be learned, asked Justice Huffman
last week If he could not perform
the marriage ceremony and wait un-
I'll the groom could earn the money
with which to pay the fee. A friend
of the groom said he would stand
good for the amount. He was work.

The state printing plant is stirring
ND fair amount of discussion. The
relative merits OF state ownership and
contract work is being threshed out.
Englesby has introduced bill carry

anates from the Typographical union

will be compelled to reckon with when
It goes into the printing business. II
gives some attention to the general
management of the proposed plant.
but neither bill yet proposed covers
the subject with sufficient detail for a
good working organization. 1t is
scarcely possible that two-thirds OF

be constitutionally provided that does

RANGE QUESTION OUGHT ID BE
 SETTLED
CattIeman Welcomes Decision by Rank Tenderfeet Rather
 Than Have It Drag Along Amid VexatioUS Conditions.

ALBUQUERQUE, June l4.-J C CuretOn, formerly a county commis sioner of Grant county, and one of the best known of southern New Nexic, cattle growers, Was a visitor in AIbu querque yesterday, leaving last nigh tor Arizona on a business trip. MT Curetcn's home ranch lies somt twenty-five mixes from Silver City but he now spends the greater par, of his time in California.
 Range conditions are very fair thi year in southern New Mexico" saiG NIT. CuretOn. -The grass is sort bu # is green and we are going to hay. a good season in Grant county. The shipments from out section have been heavy. l have finished shipping for the season and most of the owners are also done with that part of tho work. The country is cleaned LID this year as it has not been for years mast and there will be very few old steers left on our part of the range.
 The calf crop in our immediate section has been something Of a dis, appointment although I am told it has been fairly good in other parts of the territory. In our section it will moi oN1IdSG ONSI ~ per cent.
 Discussing range conditions and the general question of government regu. lation of the public domain, Mir. Cure ton expressed the belief that the cat. tlemen generally would be glad to see a settlement of the question one way CT another.
 Tt is, of course, unjust" he said to attempt to judge our conditions here in the west and the southwest on the basis of how to manage an eighty-acre farm in Missouri or Ohio. as so many of the men who are en- gagged in solving this question for us do; but as a general proposition be lieye the cattlemen will welcome a settlement, for under present condi. tions there can be no settler basis for doing business and no comprehensive plans for the future can be laid, for such plans if made on the basis of a continuance of present conditions leg islatiOn of some kind. while we can make no other plans because we do not know what the legislation will be or what the conditions under that legislation will grove. So I think the sooner the question is settled and we can get down to a working basis again and know where we are, the better it will be for us all"
