HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

After bathing tired feet in hot water
It is very soothing to rub them with
olive oil.
Hives, az a rule, are the result of a
disordered stomach. They require both
internal and external remedies.
The best medicine is a dose of cas-
tor oil, the quantity, of course, to de-
pend upon the age Of the patient
Bathing with water to which BIZ
carbonate of soda has been added is
one Of the best means of allaying
the intense irritation. Constant and
frequent applications Of good cold
cream will also soothe wonderfully.
In order to be in perfect health one
must be temperate in eating. The
meals also should be regular. Regu-
larity is one of the golden rules Of a
well-ordered life.
A clear skin is one Of the essentials
Of good health and beauty, and nothing
conduces more to this end than frequent
baths and brisk rubbings. They will do
much TO keep the skin soft and the
whole body vigorous.

over 10000 head of yearling ewes
have just been purchased by c. N.
Dansie of salt Lake, with the assist
ance of James Hacket. These sales
constitute the most of the sheep trans
actions that have been made here this
fall. other purchases were made re-
Gently by Sperry & stanfield, who
bought 400 head of yearling wethers
from William slusher, and 1900
wethers from johnson & Pearson.
OF the sheep purchased by Dansie
2O5O head were purchased of Andy
Rust, 1850 head Of c. A. Johnson.
1900 head of Henderson & Son, $500
head of Stanfield & Sperry and 27OO-
head of Dave Mitchellard & Co., Of
Walla Walla.
The sheep are to be shipped to
Chicago and will be fed in transit.
They will be loaded at Meacham and
at Elgin on the 16th and goth of this
month.
Though the exact price paid for the
ewes have not been divulged 1t is
known tha tthe price was upward Of
SO per head. However, the prices
were from s1.25 to $3.50 lower than
what was paid for the same class of
stock last year.
According to those familiar with
the local sheep market, or at least the
buying end of it, local growers them
selves will do very little buying this
year. In the past many county grow
ers have purchased lambs in the fan
for the purpose of running them
through the winter and disposing of
them in the spring. Because of the
decline in the market and other things
few will do this this year, if predic-
tions are to be relied upon.
Sales of any kind have been slow
this fall because of the wide differ
ences between buyers and growers. the
growers holding out for figures some
where near like what they received
last year. This the buyers refuse to
give and as a result it is predicted
that many growers will hold their
sheep until later.

WHEAT MOVING
ON NORTH BANK
PORTLAND GROWS AS
A SHIPPING CENTER
Transfer Facilities at North Bank
Stations Are "Swamped' by the
Heavy Wheat MOvement-Steamer
Chartered TO Handle Crop OH the
Lower River-Wheat Receipts az
Portland Over 200 Cars Per Day.

Portland, Sept. 1O.-Wheat from
the inland empire district tributary
to the north bank road and conse-
quently tributary to Portland, is now
being shipped to the city by the Sc
attic, Portland & Spokane road. by
rail to Lyle and Vancouver and by
boat from these points to Portland.
Ever since the opening of the
wheat shipping season the north bank
road has been hauling Portland
bound wheat to Lyle and thence
transferring it by boat to Portland.
In this manner large quantities of
wheat that have heretofore gone over
the mountains to Puget sound have
been brought to Portland. Included
in the list of shipments also was a lot
of last years crop which had been
held for shipment by the farmers
along IHe TOdu.
A week ago the shipments became
so heavy that the transfer facilities
at Lyle became inadequate to handle
the grain without great congestion,
and consequently a new train was put
in operation through to Vancouver.
The steamer George Burton was
chartered to handle the wheat be-
tween Vancouver and Portland and
since that time has heen making daily
trips loaded to the guards at each
trip.
Wheat is coming in large volume by
rail, yesterdays arrivals reaching the
lighwater mark of 242 cars

SAYS MITCHELL is PERJURER.
Accused by Attorney for Buck Stove
and Range Co.

Washington Sept. 10.-Attorney
Davenport, representing the Buck
Stove Orange company, created a
sensation in the state district court
here today by accusing John Mitch
ell, the former president of the Uni
ted Mine Workers of wilful and ma
licious perjury when the case of
Mitchell and Gompers was called for
the alleged contempt of court in vi
olating the order of Justice Gould by
placing the name of the Buck COM
pany on the unfair" list. Pointing
his finger at Mitchell, who was seat
ed with Gompers and other labor
leaders Davenport shouted, 81 will
show Mitchelrs affidavit filed in this
connection is statement wholly
false, and made with knowledge that
1t is false"
Mitchell flushed to the roots of his
hair. Judge Parker the attorney for
the American Federation of labor de-
clared his client had a reputation as
good as any man in the United
States. The statement in the case is
to be taken before master in chan
Gerry. A limit of 60 days was fixed
as a time during which all testimony
must be taken.

Chicago, Sept. 10.-The govern
ments contention that ignorance of
the published rate is not a valid ex-
cuse for the shipper to violate it, is
being contested by the Standard Oil
company in the answer to the gov
ernment's petition for a rehearing in
the $29,OOO,OOO, fine filed today by
.Rockefeller's counsel in the federal
court of appeals.
The answer denies that. the su-
preme court ruled it the duty of the
shipper to ascertain the published
rate. The answer also denies the
case should be reopened to establish
the number of alleged offenses.
The answer says: I'VE may fairly
insist that counsel in their criticism
Of the courts opinion he held scrup-
ulously as to the accuracy of their
treatment of both the courts ruling
and of the record.
1--WE may require that such criti-
cisms shall be confined to the sub
stantial ground for a rehearing.
Counsel for the defense is mistaken
in its contention that the trial courts
ruling was that shipper should not
be permitted to avail himself of the
defense of ignorance where ignor-
ance was the result of negligence and
wiIful failure to resort to the sources
of information which were available.
"The real point is: Did the trial
court in imposing the fine take into
the relation between
the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey and the Standard Oil company
of Indiana. Did it base the fine on
the wealthy standard of New Jersey?"

JONES LEADS ANKENY
BY SAFE PLURALITY

Seattle. Sept 0.-Practically COM
plete returns throughout the state
indicate that Jones has won the en-
dorsement for United States senator
over Ankeny by a safe plurality
Jones carried his home county,
Yakima, to 1, and ran remarkably
in every county except King, which
is probably carried by Ankeny.
Cosgrove has undoubtedly won the
nomination for governor on the sec
ond choice votes. The returns indi-
cvate that no candidate got the 40 per
cent of the first choice votes neces-
sary to elect on the first choice. The
outcome will be decided on the COM
bined first and second choice.

Upon the subject of the company's
power supply he said that they could
develop 5000 horsepower which
would not only be sufficient to oper-
ate their line, but would also furnish
power and light to sell.
He said the Northwestern Gas &
Electric company has but 2SO0 horse
power and predicted that power and
lighting rates would both be greatly
reduced when their plant is complet-
ed. Later in the discussion he de-
elared that the new company would
furnish the city with lights at one
half the price they are now paying.
Mr.. Jones also dwelt considerably
upon the advantages to the city of
cheap power. He held that manufac-
turing could not be done with profit
under the rates now being paid. The
new company hoped to furnish ample
power for the canning and milling

Last NiglIt's Session.

At a meeting last night the fran
chise desired by the electric line peo-
I pie was presented to the council by
Judge Fee, their Pendeton legal rep
/ resentative. He spoke briefly upon
the subject and introduced the diff
ferent gentlemen who were before
the council in connection with the
matter He decladed that most of
them he had known for many years
and held their regulations as citizens
and business men to be such as to en-
title them to consideration at the
hands of the council. He said he be-
lieved they would come as near full
filling any promises they might
make as was within the power of hui
man beings to do so.
The ordinance was then read to the
council
f. S. Isaacs, president of the trac-
tlon company. then addressed the
council briefly, He said that the
company was controlled by Walla
Walla men, home people, who had
confidence in. the future of this Sec
ton and were desirous of aiding in
its development. He then introduced
Mr., Jones, the New York financial
agent who represents the eastern men
who are to back the enterprise.
Mr.. Jones, of New York.
Taking a seat with the council Mr.
Jones went into detailed explanation
concerning the project. He said that
strictly upon its merits the propo-
sitlon for an interurban line between
Pendleton and Walla Walla was not
sufficiently good to justify outside
capital in taking the matter up be-
cause the earnings of the road would
