be a reduction of 21s cents and as
nearly all the wool goes to Boston,
this difference on the transcontinen-
tai rate per hundred pounds would
amount to about 1-40th of cent a
pound on the price. The smallest
fraction difference paid in price is
one-eighth of cent, so the reduction
would be no advantage. All but a
very small part of the wool ship
ments go long distances and SO any
rate on wool is matter for the in
terstate commerce commission to ad-
just. '''
There will be no decision on the
complaints until the records are
gone over by the full commission,

The esteemed Wallowa Sun (again
finds something in this paper no one
else can. 1t says this paper stakes a
fling at the other towns because they
did not fall in with the scheme and
help finance a venture engineered by
the Enterprise Commercial club
Also that this paper accuses them
(Wallowa people) of disloyalty to the
interests of the county because they
did not endorse the plan Nothing to
1t, except a gui ty conscience. This
paper never printed or intimated any
such words or phrases. If the Wal
Iowa boosters were guilty of the
things the Sun is trying to excuse
them for, the Sun is to our knowledge
also the first to charge them. The
vhoe, long, labored and exculpatory
editorial Is just another case of the
Suns over-heatei imagination as
far as i. impute3 to this paper any
filings at the Wll,owa boosters. The
latter are all right and more power

or another, two babies to grow

Our New Equipment

The Chronicle editor made a
flying trip to Minneapolis the first
of the week and purchased large
new cylinder press which will be
shipped and installed at the earl
lest date possible. The new press
weighs nine tons, is a Cranston
improved newspaper and job press
and will print anything from a
large newspaper to calling card.
The press which we now have, and
which has been used since the pur-
chase Of the plant, has been sold
to the Wibaux Pioneer and will
be installed there just as soon as
it is replaced by our larger press.
The new Cranston press is being
installed at a big expense, but we're
glad to say that our business is
such that the change became alb
solutely necessary. AS soon as
the press is installed the Chronicle
will be changed from five column
to six column paper, and will
contain from eight to twelve
page of home printed matter,
aside from the comic section. A
full description of the new press
will be given when it is installed
and the change in the size of the
paper is made.
In addition to the new press
the Chronicle has recently added
other new equipment in the way
of a wire stitcher for the binding
of all kinds Of books, pamphlets,
folders, etc., and also several new
series of type and ornaments, SO
that we are going to be better
equipped than ever to look after
the wants Of our patrons. These
improvements will be followed
next spring by the erection of a
new brick block which will be
made the permanent home Of the
Chronicle-and a credit to the
town as we'll as the paper.

HOLDING A REVIVAL
IN AUSTRALIA NOW
AT the Melbourne Services
Daily, the Town Hall, Seat
ing Over 1000 People, Is
Totally Filled.

Pittsburg, June 19.-The Chapman
Alexander evangelistis party which
started in April for . religious revival
campaign tour OF the world, Is holding
a remarkable revival in Melbourne,
large as Boston, with a population as
great, with wide streets and beautiful
buildings. For months the Christians
in Australia have been getting ready
for this event.
When the band of Christian workers
under the leadership of DR.. J. Wilbur
Chapman arrived, they were not VOL
coined as evangelists, nor was the pro-
posed work spoken of as an evangel-
istic campaign. In the language of the
Australians, the members were mis-
sioners" and had come on mission.
The welcome was most enthusiastic
and cordial. Services are now being
held daily in the town hall in Mel
bourne which seats 1900 people. Ev-
cry seat is taken at each service, and
hundreds are turned away.
For two weeks simultaneous meet
ings were held in thirty centers by To-
Cdl ulSSlOuCTS anu tuc CuttpIIldIE.Al-
exander party. preparatory to the big
central meeting in the hall. Even in
the preparatory services hundreds
were converted. The revival Is sweep
ing not only Melbourne, but Australia
and the world tour will eventually
quicken all Christendom.
Alexander Has Choir.
DR.. Chapman conducts the central
service and Charles Nj Alexander d.
reefs the great choir. Services are
held at the same hour in other dis
tricts OF the city by assisting evangel-
lists. What the Chapman-Alexander
campaign was to Boston last year the
present movement is to Melbourne.
Thousands are hearing and accepting
the word.
