New York World Shows He
Owns Many Sharts Of Stock
in Rubber Trust.
PROVES CHARGES MADE
BY SENATOR BRISTOW
Reporter Purchases One Share OF
Stock and Demands View of Stock
Books Which is Grandchildren
Had Previously Denied Pecuni-
airy Interest in Rubber Tariff.

New York, \. Y, Dec. 12.-Nelson
w. Aldrich, senior senator from Rhode
Island, owns $40 shares United States
Rubber company stock, which is like
wise known as the rubber trust, ac-
cording to the New York World. The
story is based on an examination of
the books of the rubber company by
a World reporter who purchased one
share of rubber stock so he might be
able to see the books. Although pro-
testing against allowing this, Secre-
tary Norris showed the book. At the
top of the page was the name of Aid
rich showing he owned $40 shares OF
preferred stock. The date opposite
the entry was July IS, 1910. Norris
says Aldrich owned stock some time
before but that was the date the en-
try was tranferred from an old ledger.
The names of four other Aldriches
were found. The investigation of the
books was made following the ans
swer of Aldrich to charges of Senator
Bristow that Aldrich profited directly
by the increases of the rubber sched-
ules in the recently adopted Payne
Aldrich tariff bill. Aldrich said neith-
er he nor his family had any pecuni-
AIRY interest in whether the duty on
rubber were 80 or 800 per cent.

Once again has the police force OF
this city succeeded in running to
earth boxcar thieves, and as a result
D. c. Clayton. alias D. C. Padden and
his paramour, who gives the name OF
Dorothy Clayton, are languishing be-
hind the bars, while a third person
implicated in the affair will probably
be apprehended before many hours.
Last Thursday morning Agent T. F.
OBrien Of the o. r. & N. company,
discovered that boxcar containing
to La Grande had been broken into
and among other articles four dozen
bottles of whisky and fourteen shirts
were stolen. On that same evening
number OF the employees about the
railroad yards, including Clayton,
who was switchman, became intox-
icated and on the following morning
sll were discharged.
The officers were notified of the
robbery and have been working quiet
ly on the case ever since. Last night
Chief OF Police Gurdane and Night Of
ficer Kearney, in making their rounds
stopped in at the Oriental House, one
OF the establishments OF ill-fame on
Cottonwood street, and noticed that
the women Of that place were nearly
all more or less under the influence
OF liquor. Becoming suspicious, they
finally procured one of the bottles out

THRESHERMEN HERE
FOR FALL SESSION

Still another convention Of a state
organization is to be held in Pendle-
ton and the reputation of this place
as q convention city further sustain
ed. Through the efforts Of E. L.
Smith, local agent for the Holt COM
bined harvester. and the invitation of
President w. L Thompson Of the Pen
dleton Commercial association. the
State Threshermens association,
which held its biennial convention in
La Grande Friday and Saturday has
pledged itself to give this city its next
fall meeting.
Although Mr.. Smith was the only
representative of Umatilla county at
La Grande, so ably did he present the
claims of Pendleton for the fall con-
vention. that the committee OF which
w. n. Gellatly, sheriff of Benton
county was chairman. unanimously de-
cided to present this city with the
plum. Mr.. Smith says he found the
Roundup Of great advantage to him
in swinging the deal. There was
great interest manifest in Pendleton's
wild west show, he said, and when he
urged that the convention be held
here during Roundup week, the del
egates grew very enthusiastic and
were unanimous in their desire to
take advantage of the opportunity to
witness the frontier exhibition. Mr..
Smith estimates that the decision will
mean $50 additional visitors to the city
during the fair and Roundup week.
Mr.. Smith is loud in his praises of
the La Grande business men and peo-
Pile for the entertainment which they
provided for the threshermen during
their two days stay in that city.
Nothing was left undone, he said, for
their comfort and enjoyment.
There were only about So delegates
in attendance. he said, but those So
men represented approximately s6,-
| 900, 900 of investment. The principal
discussions of the meeting were over
the best methods OF farming, the best
varieties of wheat for different sec
tions, methods OF securing reliable
statistics of the grain grown In Ore
gon, and good roads.

BURGLARS
VERY PROM|SCU0US

It behooves the people Of Pendle-
ton to lock their doors and windows
at night and take other precautions,
for the records of Saturday night
show there are burglars abroad. So
far as known, these nefarious gentle
men piled their practice at three diff
ferent places on that night. In two
Of the places they were successful in
securing a little booty but in the third
place their instruments were not ef-
fective in gaining an entrance.
Attorney r. r. Johnson is the loser
Of an old suit of clothes and a cheap
watch by the depredations Of the
house robbers, but he is not mourn
away and the watch was only dol
lar one which was replacing his own
which Isl n the jeweIry shop for re-
pairs. The miscreant walked boldly
into the house sometime during the
night, procured the suit and wen!
away without disturbing anything
else In the house.
DR.. F. W. Vincent is the second
loser and he Is not at all pleased
with the night visit as the thief ol
thieves appropriated couple OF
choice hams which were hanginb or
his back porch. Because of the pres
ent high cost of living, DR.. Vincent
considers that he might as well have
lost so much gold.
The same or other gentlemen o
the profession were foiled when they
attempted to break into the cigar
store of r. w. Henneman on Main ant
Alta street. He or they succeeded il
getting through the CRATE at the rear
of the store and were also successful
in prying off the fire doors to tn,
basement window, but when they en-
countered row of iron bars still OBJ
structing their entrance, they decided
to abandon their attempt. Mr.. Hen
neman is of the opinion that som,
transient during the evening saw Mrs
Hsnneman, who is treasurer of tn,

on Saturday, counting the proceeds o
the days sale, and thought they coult
pick up little easy money by crack

FROG-LEG INDUSTRY
PROVIDES EMPLOYMENT

According to estimates which are
reliable. though not official, the frog
leg industry Is worth to the Province
OF Quebec at least 100000 annual
ly. During 1909 the Montreal mar
kets disposed OF over 100000 worth
of frogs legs, of whicn probably more
than so per cent were produced in
this province. The local market pric-
es averaged 40 cents per pound.
There are numerous rivulets and
marshes In this province in which
frogs abound, and during the proper
season many boys and men earn a
fair livelihood catching frogs. Most of
the shipments from this consular dis
