qestions regarding the working of the
institution.
"The attitude of the members of
the appropriations committee towards
the college. if the session which
attended was an index, is very good,
indeed, and there is apparently the ut
most desire to provide fully for the
welfare of the college. The commit

upon the State Treasury for apropria-

ever, that these demands upon the
State Treasury may be classified into
two great classes, namely those which
provide for the ordinary operation of
the State government, the State offices,
and the State institutions of all kinds,
and the temporary appropriations for

FIRE LIMITS EXTENDED FARM HOUSE BURNED
J. w. Boone, on the E. H
Letterman Place, loses
Household Goods

The house on the old Heald farm,
on Union fiat, seven miles south west
of Pullman, was destroyed by fire
Tuesday afternoon. The house was oc-
cupied by j. W. Boone, who was in
Pullman at the time. Mrs. Boone
was alone and had laid down and gone
to sleep. She was awakened by the
roar of the flames and rushing into the
kitchen found it enveloped. She
jerked the telephone from the wall and
was then unable to telephone to a
neighbor and summon assistance. The
telephone was all that was saved.
The house belonged to E. H. Letter
man and was one of the oldest in that
section. having been built by O. F.
Heald in 1879. 1t was probably worth
$1,000. There was no insurance on the
house nor contents, the latter belong
ing to Mr.. Boone, who had the farm
rented. His loss is placed at about
$500.

the upbuilding of Pullman is the
Washington State College and that
what affects its immediate future is
of the geatest Importance to Pullman
and vicinity, the Herald this week
gives much space to an interesting in
terview by President Bryan. At the
request of the joint committee of SEN
ate and house President Bryan went to
Olympia and gave the appropriations
committee detailed information as to
what is wanted and why it is being
asked. President Bryan consented to
give report of his visit to Olympia,
together with a detailed account of
what is being asked for the absolute
needs of the college, to the many read
ers of the Herald.

In response to call of the Chair

and on the same evening met the joint
committee of Senate and House at

IMPORTING BEEF
TO PULLMAN
No Cattle here for Home Con-
sumption. Beef is being
Imported from Oregon

For the first time in the history of
Pullman a carload of beef cattle was
shipped in from Oregon to supply the
demand for beef. Ira Henshaw re-
ceived a carload of cattle from Baker
City, Oregon, tonight. the car coming
in over the o. r. & N. The cattle
cost Mr.. Henshaw more than four
cents a pound. on foot and they are
cows, which sell for about a cent a
pound less than steers. Fat steers are
worth about five cents per pound and
a good beef steer will bring from $50
to $50.
"1his is the first time that beef
cattle have been slipped into Pull-
man." said Mr.. Henshaw. "Once.
several years ago, owing to local con-
ditions we shipped in little dressed
beef from Spokane. but never before
has there been time when beef cattle
could not be had near here to supply
the demand. 1t will be several
months before grass cate come into
the market and it looks now like we
will have to keep on importing beef. "
Hogs are firm at six cents per pound.
live weight and veal and mutton are
unknown quantities, there being none
in the country near Pullman and the
markets here have been without these
two kinds of meat for long time.
