Union Not Offering Wheat.

Helix-Harvest is nearly completed
in this section, wheat yielding from rs
to 30 bushels, but of the very best
quality. Hardly a crop tested less
than so pounds, and the most of the
tests showed 63 to 65 pounds to the
bushel.
Edgar w. Smith, of Juniper, has
abandoned his caterpillar engine and is
preparing to finish harvesting with
horsepower machines.
While considerable wheat is being
sold by farmers most of the early sell
lers areS Sholding back, claiming that
the price has not yet reached their linn
1t and it is not expected that much
wheat will change hands until the mar
ket reaches 90c. Members of the
Farmers union are receiving the mar
ket quotations daily and in most cases
steadily refuse to sell.

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT CT The STATE
BAD PRECEDENT FEARED.
Desert Land Board Would Overthrow
Departments Ruling.

Desert Land Board Would Overthrow
Departments Ruling.
Salem-F Fearing that bad prece-
dent might be established if ruling
Of the Interior department on the ques-
tion of 800 acres of land under the
Deschutes Reclamation & Irrigation
company, should be allowed to stand, a
special effort will be made by the Des-
ert Land board to overthrow the stand
taken by the inspector in passing judg-
ment. There are 1920 acres in this
project near Bend, but on 800 acres of
it, it is said that the main canal crosses
the land and lateral runs through it,
but the land is still held to be not re-
claimed. 1t has been customary to al
low the construction of the canal with
in mile, or in the vicinity of the
land, without the construction of the
small laterals. 1t is held in the opin-
ion of the board that it would be a
needless waste of money to place the
smaller individual laterals, as they
would be tramped down before an act
ual settlement and it would be neces-
sary to practically entirely reconstruct
the work. If the ruling of the Interior
department is adhered to on appeal it
will affect all of the projects in the
state and it is claimed will result in a
great loss to the various companies
promoting the work.

Couple Dead on Ranch.

Great Falls, Mont.-Lying dead in
their ranch home, several miles north
of Shelby, the bodies of P. ]. Hazel
berg and his wife we're found by neigh
bors. They evidently had been dead
for several days. The bodies were ly-
ing side by side and hand in hand with
bullet in the head of each. The posi-
tion of the bodies and the surroundings
indicated that the husband first shot
his wife and then fixing the rifle with
stick and piece of string, he lay
down beside his wife's body and fred
a bullet through his own head.

ROOSEVELT RIDES ON PLAINS.
Takes 3O-MiIe Jaunt With Cowboys
in Wyoming.

Cheyenne, Wyoming, Aug. 29.-On
tough, wiry COW ponies, Theodore
Roosevelt rode 30 miles across the
plains of Wyoming yesterday. He
wanted to get back once more among
the cowboys in their own country and
mingle with them as he did in the old
days, 27 years ago, when the lure of
the West brought him out here, a
young man, from the East. He visit
ed, the sheep ranch Of Senator Warren
and returned to Cheyenne tonight,
more enthusiastic than ever about the
wonders of the West.
Colonel Roosevelt began the day by
going to the First Congregational
church. Early in the afternoon, he
mounted his horse. He had a relay of
three mounts and he rode them like a
cavalryman. When the ride was over
he said he had enjoyed every mile of it
and was not bit stiff or sore. Lieu
tenant Thompkins, of Fort D. A. Rus
sell; R. S. Van Tassle, who owns
ranch near Cheyenne, and Nat Baker,
ranchman, accompanied him.
They cantered across the prairie,
stopping now and then while the col
onel talked with some cowpuncher,
asking him how things are nowadays
in the cattle country. AS it began to
grow dusk they came to the ranch of
Senator Warren, where they stopped
for suppr. Everybody turned out to
welcome Colonel Roosevelt with cow
boy yell, and the colonel shook hands
all round. The cowboys and sheep
herders were dressed in their Sunday
best.

here, with the exception of the French
association, voted to declare an inter-

of every country concerned agreed to
the formation of the board of eoncilia-
tion to deal with the grievances of the
men. A resolution for an internation-
al union was approved.

MOVING PICTURE TALKS.
Edison Combines Phonograph and
microscope.


microscope.
Orange, N. with his kinetscope
Thomas A. Edison demonstrated that
he has achieved success in making a
moving picture talk.
A limited number of scientific men
and newspaper reporters were at the
initial exhibition and while only very
short film with voice reproduction at
tachment was shown, all present real
lied that Edison has accomplished an
other great achievement
After realistic demonstration Edi-
son announced that it would not be
long before Teddy was over here max
ing his great speeches into the new
machine. Another advantage will be
to have great operas reproduced by
kaleidoscope. Edison planned the most
appropriate film for the exhibition.
The scene on the screen was a repro
duction of stage in theater. On
this appeared a typical lecturer who
that the kinetophone had
been perfected only after it was found
possible to operate a phonograph and
a kinetoscope simultaneously.
To illustrate the possibilities of the
new invention the eloquent lecturer on
the canvas dropped a wooden ball on
the hard floor of the stage and this pro-
duced loud noise. From the canvas
there also came sound of an auto horn
in the hands of the lecturer and there
was also loud crash when he dropped
a dish.

Pittsburg, Kan.-By a vote of 13 to
5 the conference committee of the un-
ion miners in the Southwestern field

tions with the operators to draft a con-
tract upon the terms submitted by the
latter. The miners will hold a meet

Three Killed in Baseball Riot.

Brooks, Ga.-A ball game between
negro clubs for the championship of
Fayette county Sunday afternoon broke
up in a riot in the ninth inning. Three
ball players are dead, three probably
fatally injured and several less serious
ly hurt. Pistols, knives and ball bats
were used in the riot, scores of spec
tators taking sides. The riot was
caused by close decision of Umpire
Smith in the ninth, which allowed the
Brooks team to score the winning run.
Although all the fighting ragged about
the umpire, he escaped without injury.

KAISER RAISES STORM.
Asserts Divine Right to Rule-Peo-
pie Are ignored.

Berlin-The speech delivered by EN-
peror William, of Germany, before the
provincial banquet at Koenigsburg, in
which he emphasized his belief in a
divine mandate by which he rules, re-
fered to the Prussian crown as "be-
slowed by Gods grace and not by par
liaments or peoples assemblies, and
laid lance against the movement for
woman's suffrage, is the political SEN
sation of the hour.
The leading organs of the German
press devote extended comment to it,
generally criticising the utterances,
and there are indications that the dis
course will have deep political effect
upon the country. Nearly all the
Berlin papers are discussing the sub
ject in sympathy with the political
crisis of November, 1908, when the
publication by the London Daily Tele-
graph of an interview with the emper-
or aroused storm against the uncon-
trolled public speaking of the emperor.

in succession, John D. Rockefeller
failed to take his Bible class at the
Euclid avenue Baptist church. Until
two weeks ago it was the custom of
the oil king to address his class every
Sunday spent in Cleveland. His fail

part of the reticence he has maintained
during the last two weeks. During
that time he has absolutely refused to
be interviewed.

would hoist the present year treasury
deficit of $35 100000 to a much higher
figure. Senator Hale's attitude even
gave the plan of producing two bat
tleships annually a color that was
anything but sanguine
I'VE will decrease the appropria-
tions by $100.OOO,O00," said Senator
Hale. "The president and ] have been
discussing the expenditure program
In general. You can look for that
much of a cut
The New England senator would
make no further frank disclosures,
but strobe homeward after a little
general conversation about the duties
of certain committees at the capitol.
If the presidents retrenchment
mark is followed, congress must find
ways to inflict decreases amounting
to about $43,OOO,O0O. With a decrease
of more than $57,OOO,OOO under appro-
priatfons for 1910, as set forth in the
estimates of the secretary of the treas
ury. which have been furnished to
congress. that figure will about make
up the cut which President Taft has
decided as necessary in order to give
proper heed to the big deficit which. it
is reported. will exist in the treasury
at the end of the present fiscal year.
The points where congress will be
expected to operate will he on the ex-
penditures for public buildings, on
public works in general and on print
ing. Possibly some attention will be
paid to the cost of transporting Sec
ond class mails. If Senator Hale's
suggestion, heretofore made, that but
one battleship instead of two be built
during the next year, is adopted. it
will mean nice little bite of $1O,O0O,-
900 or $12,O00,OOO out of the appro-
priations needed to run the govern
ment next year. 1t is not known
whether President Taft has as yet ac-
ceded to Senator Hale's proposed
slash at the naval program, but it
can be safely asserted that pressure
is being brought to bear upon him.

Paris, Jan. 5.-Freemasons of the
world are now taking the prelimi-
nary steps toward getting an express
sion of opinion as to the feasibility
of the order rebuilding the temple of
deal has been said publicly of the
plan, for it is not the habit of the
Masons to work that way. Not until
it is certainty that enough money
can be raised for the enormous pro-
ject and the order the world over is
committed to it will any authoritative
announcement be made.
Solomon is regarded as having been
the first Fremason, the founder of the
order.
The wonderful temple that he built
at Moriah is regarded as having been
the first of the Masonic rites. and in
the deep reverence of the Masons for
all that has to do with his order it
is regarded as almost a duty to re-
store the holy place that saw the
beginning OF one of the most remark
able organizations in the world.
For many years this plan has been
quietly discussed-in fact for centur-
les it has been the dream of enthu-
siasts to restore the temple of the
first grand master of the craft.
But one obstacle ever stood in the
way. Jerusalem is on Turkish soil,
and the iml,ossibility of getting help
from the sultan stood ever as a bar;
but the coming of a new regime in
the land the prevalence of more lib
eral ideas opens the way, and it is
probable that the site could either
be purchased outright or at least con-
troll arranged.
Reconstruction Costly.
The Masonic order is wealthy and
its resources are virtually limitless,
but to restore the temple on anything
like the scale in which it existed in
the days, of Solomon would go into
money in way to make John d.
Rockefeller hold his breath-in fact,
to make a syndicate of Rockefellers
and Morgans wonder how the wind
could be raised.
An examination of the material u.s.
ed in the building of the temple and
of the number of men who worked
on it shows impressively that it would
be venture involving millions.

RETRENCHMENT

Bare Possibility of Only One

Washington. Jan. 5.--An even hun
dred million is to be Topped off the
expenditures Of the government for
the next fiscal year. according to the
plans of the administration.
This is the retrenchment mark
which President Taft has set. He con-
ferred at length yesterday with Chair
man Hale of the senate committee on
appropriations. The outcome of the
talk was an understanding that the
slogan of economy which has hereto
fore been sounded was not joke.
Senator Hale left the white house
about o'clock with Il jaunty step and
a confident air which foreboded any,
thing but glad tidings for those among
the lawmakers who are looking for
ward to new public buildings, bond
issues for waterways, big river and
harbor funds, and Innovations which
