Pittsburg Now Sixth City.

Greater Pittsburg was made a
fact on Monday by the decision of
the supreme court of the United
States. The decision Of the supreme
court of Pennsylvania was sustained
in every particular. 1t was held
that city is political division of
the state, and that the state is en-
powered t. consolidate or abolish
cities without the consent and
against the will of the people Of a
city. The question of taking
property without the due process OF
law under federal constitution does
not apply.
The consolidation gives The city
an area Of 3S square miles and an
estimated population Of $50, 900,
which makes It the sixth city in
population IN the country. 1t will
have the larges, tonnage of any
other city in the world.

FITTING 7R|BUTETOWH|TMAN' sMEMORY

Mrs. jacobson was then but &
child but remembers the terrible
time with great clearness and recalls
all of the events leading up to and
following the massacre.
When the attack was made upon
the mission by the Cayuses, Osborn
had his family, consisting of wife
and four children. under a puncheon
floor in one of the cabins and while
the Indians were brutally numbering
the inmates of the mission and burn
ing the buildings, the family lay in
this safe retreat and escaped death
Their friends and associates were
slain and left lying in the ruins of the
once happy and prosperous mission,
Touching "reminiscences were TOLD
today by many pioneers who have
preserved the history of the tragedy.
Among those going over from
Pendleton were Mr.. and Mrs. vii.
liam Blakely, who were personally ac-
quainted with Rev. Spalding, the as
sociate of Marcus Whitman, Rev. j.
NJ Cornelson and Robinson and Luke
of the Tutuilla Indian
church, which is a continuation of the
church founded among the Cayuses
by Whitman.

told he must, he will marry me-

would you shoot?'
"She replied that she would not

1t has become known that Cook &
Perry, who recently paid $3.50 in
advance to +. S. Skidmore, alleged
representative. of a show case and
fixture company, were not the only
ones to be buncoed by the clever
swindler.
While here Skidmore took orders
for fixtures from numerous other To-
cal merchants and he is known to
have collected money from some OF
them. Dean Tatom placed an order
with the fellow for fixtures for his
new bakery store on Main street and
was persuaded to pay $12 down up
on the purchase. Others who were
victimized include Gritman Bros, the
Wilkinson jewelry store and ]. E.
Beam.
Since the warrant for Skidmore's
arrest was sworn out the other day
the sheriff's office has been busy
trying TO locate him, but thus far he
has not been taken. According to
the officers they have been handi-
capped in the work by the prema-
ture announcement of the case and
believe that the swindler has friends
here who are aiding him.

LOCAL WHEAT MARKET OPENS AGAIN

For the first time since before the
state holidays were declared the local
wheat market is now open for busi-
ness and while no purchases have
vet been reported the fact that the
grain companies are again in posi-
tion to buy is encouraging.
Seventy cents for club is the open
ing price and in view of the tight
money market and the way wheat has
dropped in Chicago, 1t is considered
a good one. But, according to the
grain buyers themselves, wheat will
go higher.
"I look for the price to go even
higher than it was before the panic"
said one buyer today. "The wheat
is all needed and when the grain
companies get into position to ham

At present the buyers are not
anxious to make any purchases for
the grain companies have not suf-
ficiently disposed of their present
holdings to desire further loads very
badly. However, they admit that the
market is now open and that they
might buy some wheat if it was Of
fered them for 10 cents.
1t is estimated that nearly one
fourth the crop Of the county is yet
unsold, though some declare that
less than 25 per cent is still held by
the growers. However, 1t is certain
that over 100000 bushels is still
held by the farmers and If prophecies
come true, those who have held will
not regret 1t.
