That a man should not speak in
sultingly of another mans wife, even
II she be a colored woman, was
shown very forcibly in the police
court this morning. d. c. Knowlton
had done so to Al Richardson, boot
black at the Hotel st. George.
He was knocked down upon the
spot gun taken from him and later
when the case was aired in court the
white man was fined a total Of $40.
while the colored one went free up
on the payment Of one dollar.
For bitterness of feeling and hard
accusations the above case was the
most remarkable heard in the local
court for many months, TestifyinS
in his own behalf Richardson said
knowlton has come to him several
times with stories OF his Orchard
son's) wife's unfaithfulness. On the
first two occasions he had paid lit
tie attention to the man. This morn
ing he came for the third time with
similar story.
In the course of the alteration
Knowlton called the bootblack's wife
a liar and applied another term,
which, with most men, whether
white or black, means war. 81 was
crazy then and lit onto him." said
Richardson in explaining the matter.
According to the colored man,
Knowlton struck at him with his left
hand at the same time and Just as he
did SO he had noticed a gun in the
white mans pocket. After he had
thrown Knowlton down the gun was
taken from the latter by the Italian
boy who drives the st. George bus.
Otto Turner, who had seen the
fight from his room in the East Ore
gonian building, said that just before
the fight Richardson had started to
walk away. Something was said by
Knowlton and the colored man turn
ed on him.
The young bus driver was also
called as q witness, while another
man, who said he hailed from New
Y6rk; was called IN behalf of Knowl-
ton. However, his testimony was Of
little consequence as he contradicted
himself and admitted he was in front

Whether or not a branch expert
ment station will be established at
Hermiston now seems to rest with
the board of regents of the agricul-
tural college, and those gentlemen
VIII be hero shortly for the purpose
of investigating the matter. 1t will
then be up to he people Of the irri.
CATION section and Of the county to
show the necessity for the branch
station.
For many months past State Sena-
tor c. j. Smith has been at work up
on the proposition of an experiment
station at Hermiston and Senator
Bourne has been handling the matter
at Washington. According to Sena-
tor Smith the federal government is
willing to provide the site for the sta
ton and will likewise provide seeds
for the station.
However, 1t seems to be the rule
to require the operating expenses of
branch stations paid from the funds
given the state experimental stations.
The sum of $4,000 annually is now
given to tho experiment station at
the agricultural college. OF this
amount it is hoped to secure several
thousand dollars per year for the
maintenance of the Hermiston sta
ton, should that sum be needed.
Hon. J. K. Weatherford, president
of the board of regents of the Ore
gon Agricultural college, has written
Senator Smith saying that the re-
gents will shortly be in eastern Ore,
gon for the purpose of visiting the
branch station at Union.
While passing through they have
offered to stop off here for the pur.
pose of looking over the field al
Hermiston. When that time come.
Senator Smith hopes to have a repre-.
sentative party accompany the re,
gents to Hermiston for the purpose Of
showing them the need of the branch
station.

Hermiston, Sept. 21.-Walter Lub-
ken. formerly OF Pendleton, now Of
ficial photographer to the U. s. rec
lamation service, with headquarters
at Boise, has been spending the week
in taking pictures Of the Umatilla
project about Hermiston. and has se-
cured many good views that will be
used by the government in showing
the work being done here, and the
crops, ETC., now produced on the
land to be watered by national irri-
cation.
Mr.. Lubken has had great expe-
rience as photographer for the SER
vice, and has been on practically all
the projects which the government
has undertaken. AS a result he is
pretty thoroughly familiar with the
different projects and their possibili-
ties.
During his work he has gathered
together, aside from the official pho
tographs, a very large and valuable
collection of negatives of western
scenes and western types, and espe-
cially of Indians, having had con-
siderable success in photographing
the Indians about the Arizona pro-
jects. In that country, he says, the
picturesque aborigine is rapidly CIV
ing place to the Indian in overalls
and jumper, who is doing a white
mans work on the reclamation pro-
jects in places where the white men
could not be secured and doing 1t
in a remarkably satisfactory man.
ner.
Mr.. Lubken declares that the Una
tilla project is one of the highest
grade projects in the whole govern
ment service, and is confident that
1t has a wonderful future before 1t.
His photographs of irrigated lands in
this vicinity have shown the big
crops to be grown where water could
be secured.
He believes that this will be fruit
country, and while Of course It is out
Of the citrus belt, the fruits will be
valuable. The Arizona projects, he
says, have longer seasons, and will
produce more crops, of alfalfa, for in

valuable.

the white man richly deserved his
punishment and that he should be
run out OF town were some of his
milder declarations.
Likewise. City Attorney McCourt
was unsparing in his denunciation Of
Knowlton, chasing him as very "un-
desirable citizen" and recommending
that he be heavily fined and also
charged with carrying a concealed
weapon.
After a moments hesitation Judge
Fftz Gerald imposed a one dollar fine
upon the colored man and fined
Knowlton $50 for provoking the as
sault and the same amount for car
rying concealed weapon, or a total
of $40.

STORY OF THE WENATCHEE.
Wonderful Development Of Washing
ton Irrigation Center.

Guy E. Mitchell, the writer on irri-
CATION and western development con-
tributes the following to the Techni-
cal World on the irrigation develop
ment of -wenatchee, Washington:
In the famous Wenatchee valley
of Washington, although orchard land
is worth $500 and $4,000 an acre,
every orchard is a good-paying in
vestment, and there are no neglected
tracts.
To see some of these orchards or
farms, you leave the business district
Of the tofn and soon come to COM
Portable houses, placed a little back
from the street, in the widst of what
looks like large city blocks-660 by
$50 feet, each perfectly cultivated
orchard and garden. These are, in
fact, five-acre tracts.
Some of the houses have only an
acre, while a little further on are
some 10-acre blocks; but this is
about the limit. Irrigation has wiped
out the lonesome country, and 1t is
all one big village and community.
The town lots are fruit farms and
the farms are town lots.
These little plots have made their
owners comparatively wealthy I'm from
six to eight years. Nearly every
house has its electric lights and its
telephone service and its running wa-
ter and bath tub and its flourishing
rural free delivery. There are no Ia
Dor unions, because wages are nor
mally high.
Unconsciously, the people have
solved many social problems which
are racking the best brains of the
people of older cities. The telephone
monopoly is in their own hands, for
they own the stock Of the Farmers
Telephone company, and everybody
gets unlimited service for $12 year,
while the company pays a regular
dividend. They have a fruitgrowers'
union, which secures the best prices
for fruit for all the members.
The union owns the fruitgrowers'
warehouse, and eastern buyers are on
hand promptly to buy at from $3.50
per short bushel boxes of apples at
the warehouse. The western irrigat-
ed apples are never shipped in bar
rels; they are wrapped and packed
like oranges in boxes. And the trees
bear every year with the regularity
of clockwork.
