Affidavits .purportlng to show that
c. b. Wade is mental and nervous
wreck to such an extent that he can
not appear for trial were filed In the
circuit court by Colonel ]. II. Raley
this forenoon and with them Is a
statement In his behalf from en-
ployes OF the First National bank and
a petition from Wade's former bonds
men asking that the charges against
him be dismissed.
The papers in behalf of Wade were
filed by Colonel Haley early this
morning and the matter was not
taken up then owing TO the fact that
another suit was on trial.
But one statement from physician
was filed in behalf of Wade. II was
an affidavit from DR.. John K. Haynes
of Los Angeles, and in the same the
Doctor says: 81 have during the past
three weeks examined c. b. Wade on
three different occasions. He an
swers nterrogations in an uncertain
and a hesltating manner and seems
very slow of apprehension. He GER
tainly is a neurasthentic and should
avoid excitement OF all kinds.
In sworn statement Rev. l. B'
TaIlman. who is now sojourning at
Los Angeles. declares that Wade Is
nervous wreck and is mentally inca
pable of defending himself at a trial
or OF properly aiding his counsel
should he be brought to trial. He also
savs that i'm his belief Wade will never
recover sufficiently to stand trlai ana
that should he be tried ana convicted
while I'm his present state the conVic-
zion would be contrary to right ana
justice.
Statements somewhat similar to the
above are also make by James Craw-
ford and by William Baker. formerly
Of Adams. A more detailed statement
Of wade's condition was made by Le-
vlna Greedy. who has known him since
childhood and who has lived with
the Wades during the past tiVe
months.
Regarding the Vcy Note.
Upon the subject of the ,Vey note
for $1,000 which Wade is accused oi
having forged, an affidavit from c. H.
Cranston and ]. T. Lambirth was
filed. In their statement the TWO
bank employees say that the note al
legged to have been forged by wade
was really made to renew n former
note given by Vey and that after IL
had been paid statement of Veys
account at the bank and showing the
payment to have been made was FUR
nished 10 Joe Vey. Consequently they
assert that vey knew the true condi-
ton OF the noto.
They also assert that Wade did not
draw any money from the bank for
the note he is charged with having
forged.
Bondsmcn Ask Dismissal.
The last affidavit is from E. j.
Sommerville, G. w. Rugg and II. f.
Johnson. bondsmen for Wade for the
Charles A. Craig estate. In their
statement the three men say that by
n careful examination Of Wade's af-
fairs they are satisfied that before
Wade broke down he was making
preparations to turn the Craig prop
erty over to the rightful heirs and
that he had set aside $4,000 for that
purpose.
They hold that Wade had no in
tenton OF defrauding his bondsmen
and that they have lost no money
through his action. They exhonerate

Woolbuyers are now commencing
to arrive in Pendleton and within a
short time the 1908 season will be
on. Buyers already here are Jacob
Sheuerman and Frank Lee, the lat
ter being buyer who usually main
tains headquarters at Heppner.
Charles II. Greene, representative Of
Koshland Bros, is expected tonight
| and within a short time z. ]. Burke,
buyer for Judds& Root and other
members of the wool buying corps
will reach the city.
When the buyers commence the
wool season they are always pessim-
istic of the outlook and this year
their talk promises to be more dole
full than in the past. According to
those now here the market will be
weak. If there is any market this
year, and if what they say is true.
sheepmen will soon have 10 take in
washing for a living.
But the sheepmen themselves are
not so downcast for while they an
ticipate lower prices than last season
they feel that there will still be need
of their clips. 1--WE will have a far
better grade of wool this season."
declared j. NJ. Keeney, of the Cum
ningham company, in speaking of the
outlook this forenoon. 1.-The open
winter and the general favorable con-
ditions have caused this and the UNA
tilla county wool will be far ahead
of what II was last year so we are
not 'skeered.'"
The eradication of scab in this sec
tion will work to the benefit of the
shcepmen and this, together with the
fact that the wool CLIP promises to
be heavy will doubtless offset any
decline there may be in the price.
Lambing Now On.
Throughout the country the lamb
ing season is now well under way and
the conditions so far are said to have
been ideal, though in the country
west of here more rain is needed. At

Mcintosh Is Commissioner.
The appointment of Alex Mcintosh
of Paulina as sheep commissioner to
fill the vacancy caused by the ex-
piration of T. F. Boylen's term. has
seemingly met with the general ap-
proval of the sheepmen OF this coun-
ty According to those who know
him, Mr.. Mcintosh is we'll qualified
for the post and they believe he win
serve satisfactorily. 1t is likely that
meeting Of the board will be held
soon for the purpose of again elect

Kee, Your
Bowels 0nen

It is noticeable fact, and one which
any doctor will verify that people who
suffer most often from disease are the
ones who have the most difficulty in
keeping their bowels open. Regular
bowel action is half the battle of health.
People who have . tendency to con-
stipation must of necessity use something
to help nature along. This should not
be a violent aid like salts or purgative
waters. cathartic pills or powders, but a
syrup liquid that will oil the intestines
and membranes that it comes in contact
with. Children, women and weak
people generally should never be given a
strong physic as it weakens the system. And it
IS futile for the strongest person because the
relief is simply for that day, and then the reac-
tion sets in and you are worse of than before.

Dividing Time.

A story is told that two child
rem had been out walnut hunting
and had been very successful.
Both had secured a goodly sup
ply, and decided to divide up,
share and share alike. For this
purpose they climbed over a stone
fence into a graveyard, and in
the process two Walnuts dropped
from the apron of one and fell
outside the fence.
A negro came along, and, hear
ing. voices on the inside of the
graveyard, paused and heard
conversation something to this
effect:
You take this one, and I'll
take this one. You take this one,
and I'll take this one.
He hurried to a negro preach
er'sShouse near by and breath
lessly said /: DE devil and de
Lawd is out dere in de grave
yard jest a-countin' 'em out"
The preacher was not from
Missouri, but he wanted to be
shown, so they both went to the
graveyard, and the same monot-
onous counting was going on in
side the place.
"You take this one, and III
take that one. You take this
one, and I'll take that one. And
we'll get those two outside the
fence as we go out"
IF you does you'll be in a fly
ing race"

LAMBERTON PEOPLE UCTlMIzED
Fake Pedestrian Tells Them PIausi.
BILE Story and They Believe II.

About ten Gays ago, according to
the Lamberton Star, stranger
drifted into that city and to a few OF
the favored ones clipped it OFF, that
he had just completed walk of i, 300
miles, from Idaho to Lamberton,
thereby winning wager of $1,000.
The story was believed and the
stranger received with open arms.
Some of the leading business men even
went so far as to have him sit for a
photograph in order that his pictures
might be retained as souvenirs, and
at one of the leading restaurants
board was granted him ION tick "
without the slightest hesitation. AT
the restaurant he remained for four
days, waiting, as he said, for the
party who was to pay him the $4,000
on the wager, and then he suddenly
disappeared, leaving his unpaid board
bill and Lamberton's hospitality be-
hind him. Search was made for him
by the authorities in Sanborn, SPRING
field and LETTERS, but without avail.
Hereafter champion walkers" had
better give Lamberton wide berth.

GREAT TURNFEsT IN FATnERLAND
Turner's from All Over the World
Now Congregated in
Germany.

At the same time that the Olympic
games are in progress in London this
week there is being held in Frankfort
on-the-Main in Germany an athletic
meet OF greater scope and larger in
the number of participants than even
the Olympic meet though perhaps not
OF equal interest and Importance to
the world at large. The Frankfort
gathering is an international funniest
and promises to be the most extensive
display of physical training ever held
in Germany, or for that matter in any
other country of the world.
Between 10000 and $4,000 turner's
are entered for the various events.
America alone has contributed dele
cation of nearly 1000. Germany,
France, Italy, England and Austro-
Hungary have sent large parties, and
even far-off Japan and China will be
represented in some of the events.
Several fields of many acres each
have been set aside for the gymnastic
exercises. The greatest spectacle will
come when the $4,000 participants
meet on one field and perform the
same gymnastic exercises at one time
upon one signal.

The Paramount Question Under
lying the Coming Campaign.
rs the Money Devil Overmatch for the Plain American
Voter"

Writing in the Louisville Courier
Journal of the democratic national
convention and of the possibility of
democratic victory this fall, Henry
Watterson says:
''There is but one real underlying
and paramount question in this cam
paign, and that is, can TIE people by
their own unaided strength change
their government against the march
ing army of federal officeholders sup
ported by unlimited supplies either
wrung from or contributed by the cor
porations? Is the money devil an
Over-match for the American voter?
Can the administration at Washington
successfully employ upon the country
at large the ruthless agencies which
were successfully employed at Chicago
upon the republican party? That is
all there is to it, fellow democrats
and fellow citizens; no more and no
less.
Cali economic issues pale before
this supreme exigency. Mr.. Bryan's
reviled personality is but an atom.
The most hide-bround conservative
cannot fear Mr.. Bryan with re-
publican senate already fixed to out
last the next presidential term. Mr..
Taft's personality, however attrac-
tive, is but an atom, when we reflect
that it is simply the velvet hand ofthe
old confidence game of high tariff and
high finance, played upon the Ameri-
can people and American industries
by the party of Standard Oil and steel
and iron, of the sugar trust and the
tobacco trust, of fraud and force,
