One OF the most successful meetings
of the Umatilla county hardware as
sociation was held at the Hotel Pen
dleton last evening. The business ses-
sion was followed by social one
around the banquet table in the din
ing room of the hotel.
Hon. C. A. Barrett Of Athena, was
reelected president Of the association
and W. E. Brock of Taylor Hardware
company Of this city, was named as
secretary for the ensuing year.
In addition to those present from
the different towns in the county,
there were several visitors present
from the Walla Walla county asso-
citation and the gathering was turned
into a sort of get together meeting.
Among those from Walla Walla were
John Smith, ]. II. Morrow, Thomas
Mountain, T. N Conway, F. w. Kas-
er, Fred Hoskins, Thomas Drumhel-
Ter and NJ. Toner.
One of the most important results
of the meeting will be the curtail-
ment of the length Of time which the
hardware dealers will be able to give
their credit patrons in the future.
This was made necessary by the re-
ceipt of notice from the wholesale
dealers to the effect that hereafter the
retailers would only be given so days
credit instead Of six months as in
the past. The retail dealers in turn
will be compelled to demand prompt
payments from the men to whom they
sell. Heretofore it has been CUSTOM
ary for the Umatllla county hard
ware men to allow the farmers credit
until they have had a chance to har'
vest and sell their grain.

TRAILING DOGS AWAKE
 FARMER WHO USES GUN

An additional Item of excitement was connected yesterday with the search for the negro Lewis who shot his wife in this city Monday night.
 The deputies were close behind the dogs who were following a hot trail that led by a farmers house. when the chase was brought to a halt by the Hring of a pistol from the porch of the house. Jumbo. one of the finest trail- CTS of the pack. dropped to the ground. Deputy Reeves ran ue to make an ex- animation and found that the dog, true to his training. had stopped as soon as he heard the shot and fallen close to the ground.
 The farmer was evidently enraged because his slumbers were disturbed hv the deep paying of the dogs. and fired upon the noisy pack.
 Sheriff Hood said last night that the man had laid himself liable to a fine ranging from $50 to s1,000 for interfer- ing with officers In the pursuit of their duty.

"eek's HecOr0 or Enterprfee1 In Two States.
 Columbus. Ga, Sept. 7.-(special } The Georgia and Alabama Industrial Index will say tomorrow in its regular weekly issue:
 Perhaps no land sale of the past week in the two States was more in- teresting than the transfer of 10000 acres of coal lands in Cullman County, Ala. to a company said to be composed largely of Hollanders. This company. in which European capital Is known to be heavily interested has been acquir- Ing holdings from time to time in that section of Alabama, and it is said will now build a railroad from Cullman to the coal fields and develop them. Gull man, 1t will be recalled. is the famous German town of Alabama, and 1t does not seem strange that European capi- tai should follow the colonists, espe- cially in view of the successful man. ner in which they have developed their town and section.
 New banks were chartered during the week at Atlanta, Ga, Birmingham, Ala. Byron. Ga. and Cleveland, Ga. Twenty-one new corporations were formed, with capital of $577,500, and the activity in real estate is reflected by the fact that five of them are realty corporations, located. respectively at Birmingham, Ala. Brunswick Ga, Douglasville. Ga, Fitzgerald, Ga., and Savannah. Ga.
 "A company was incorporated at Americus Ga.. to engage in the culture and marketing of oceans. Among the land sales was that of a farm near winder Ga. for $4o.000. and the plan tation will be divided into small farms of 100 acres each. Illinois people will build a s10.000 club house in Dough- erty County, Ga.
 Bonds of Georgia and Alabama cities were sold during the past week to Detroit, Mich. Cleveland. O., and Boston. Mass. investors. and many other distant cities were represented among the unsuccessful bidders. A $25000 company was formed at Co., lumbus. Ga, to manufacture school desks. a $50.0O0 lumber company was chartered at Savannah, Ga, a $24,o0a corporation to manufacture cotton picking machines was organized at Au- gusta, Ga., and @ group of new enter prises are projected for Calera, Ala.

FULLER BILL MAY HURT FAIR Essential Exhibits Are
 Threatened. MAJOR WINTERS WORRIED Asks Gafber If Homemade Wines
 Must Go. Stirred by Queries of Housewives Montgomery County to Be Rep-
 resented by Exhibit of W. c. NafteI.

Major Winters. State Fair Secretary, is worried. The Fuller prohibition bill reached into his domain. and threatens to diminish domestic and agrcnlt aral exhibits at the fair this fall.
 As all the world knows. such delect- able dainties as branded peaches. blackberry cordial, scuppernong wine, and cane beer have long been essential parts of an agricultural exhibit. But prohibition reigns in Alabama, and Major Winters fears that these exbib- its will come under the ban of the law. He has gone with his troubles to Attorney General Garber. and ex- poets an opinion of that State official soon.
 danger to the fair exhibits by letters from observant housewives through the State.
 Will not our exhibits be seized as contrabandT was the query of one of the kitchen artists.
 Major Winters awoke to the situ- ation. One of the chief glories of an agricultural fair Is in danger of ex- tinction. He jumped. he says, for the nearest copy of the Fuller bill, but Its 12,O00 words daunted him. And now he sits anxiously awaiting the reply of the Attorney General.
 If the products of the farm kitchen must not be made or placed on exhibi- tion, the exhibits in every fair In the State will suffer and will be dipin- ished in size and interest, he declares. Visitors to Vandiver Park during last seasons fair remember that in each of the county exhibits home made wines and branded preserves figured prominently.
 Montgomery County Exhibit.
 W. c. Mattel. of Naftel. Montgomery County. has obtained floor space in the exhibition hall at vandiver. Park, in which to place 8 Montgomery County exhibit. MT.

 It Is assured that five counties will enter exhibits, in competition for the substantial bait of the $1.000. They are Montgomery, Cullman. Jefferson, Baldwin, Hale with perhaps others for tentative offers of representation from other counties have been received.
 Needs Individual Exhibits.
 Major Winters has expressed the de- sire that merchants of Montgomery ln- dertake to advertise themselves and their warehouses by exhibits at the State Fair this fall. So far he says, the sale of floor space for the individ- ual exhibits Is light, and the city will be but poorly advertised, he thinks so far as its commercial advantages are concerned, unless the merchan,s S awake to the opportunity of showing the WIS., itors what is bought and sold in the city.

 Louisville. Ky, Sept. 7.-Several hun dred delegates to the National Asso- citation of Retail Druggists. now in session here, and the plain Louisville citizen experinced considerable dffi- culty in securing tons ,rial attention to day because 125 barbers struck this morning as the result of the master barbers' refusal to sign an agreement whereby the journeymen were to re- ceive 50 cents on every dollar taken in a SIP per week guarantee and short. CT day.
 The journeymen barbers contend that they will not stand for a cut of cents leaving them 55 cents on each dollar taken in and allow the master barbers to advance the price of slaves from 10 cents to IS cents.
 On the other hand the master bar bers claim that under the old agree. ment no profit resulted to them and that they were barely making operat. ing expenses. Twenty-nine shops closed their doors.
