ACTING on the advice of the secre-
tary of the treasury, twenty of the big
banks of New York formed currency
association in accordance with the
terms of the Aldrich- Vreeland bill.
In case of scarcity of currency the
banks in The association may put up
securities approved by the secretary
of the treasury and receive seventy
five per cent. of their face value In
emergency currency. The law was
enacted two years ago and the treas
ury had large quantity of the new
currency printed, but there has been
no move on the part of the banks to
take advantage of it. The conditions
are that not less than ten banks with
at least $4,000, 900 in stock and surplus,
shall form an association. The actions
of an association will be supervised by
the secretary of the treasury: 1t has
been thought that these associations
should be formed now when there is
no need for them, so that the ma
chinery would be ready in case of a
squeeze. This will take the place of
clearing house loans.

seven of these cities; but in Isl of
them the liquor license fees produced
$41, $50, 1873 of the city revenues during
1908. a gain of over three millions over
the preceding year, the gain being due
to the increased fees charged. There
were 67,131 drinking places licensed.

Seal farming is the latest enterprise
that government authorities suggest
for New York state folks-the raising
of the real fur bearing seals, now TAX

This may seem a trifie extravagant,

of fisheries, is authority for the state

strated that these fur bearing seals can
be propagated in the fresh water lakes
of New York state.

Apparently Christmas present of a
sealskin coat by New York lakeside
farmer soon will be largely matter

''rookery'' back of the house and take
her pick of live pelts.
Mr. Bowers statement is based on
experiments that the bureau of fisher
les has been conducting for the last six
months. The bureau has had two fur
bearing seal pups in captivity and has
demonstrated not only that the pups
can be raised by hand, but that they
will thrive in fresh water and will
stand a sweltering Washington sum-

Pribilof islands has amounted to more
than $50,000,000 since the government
came into possession of these small bits
of barren lands. The United States
has received 100000 alone for the
privilege of hunting on these islands,
which is $2,00O,000 more than the gov
eminent paid for an of Alaska.
When the United States bought these
islands in connection with Alaska there
were 100000 seals on them. Now
there are only 10000, and the govern
ment has been obliged to terminate its

ONE SESSION

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-09-22

Probably the most successful har-
vest season, considered from any
standpoint. Unatilla county has ever
had, is rapidly being brought to q
close. In those parts of the wheat
belt where harvesting is done by
means of the combine harvest was
over several days ago. In those Sec
tions where the grain was headed and
stacked or where it was bound and
stacked, namely the Holdman and
Weston mountain sections, several
days will yet elapse before the wheat
is all in the sack.
The harvest season this year was
shorter by several days than any 9TH
er ever experienced in this part Of
the state. This was due principally
to the fact that there were from 80 TO
80 new combines and many new head
ers TO assist in caring for the crop.
One Pendleton dealer alone is said
to have sold 29 combines, just pre-
ceding the opening of the season. 4
second cause for a snort harvest was
the ideal weather which prevailed.
There was but one shower of rain
which interfered in any way and many
crews were not affected by this one.
A large number Of harvesters went
through the season without delay Of
any kind, while not one was delay
ed as much as half a day on account
of rain. This record is considered re-
markable. A third cause was the sub
stituting in not a few instances Of the
ctr
from 20 to 30-horse teams on COM
bines. The engines apparently are
proving more satisfactory than horses
in this county for the reason that they
cause fewer delays, take out less time
for meals and get over the ground
faster.
The crop harvested mas also added
much to the satisfactory conditions
which have prevailed during the sea-
son. There has probably not been Q
season in recent years when the grow
ers had to contend with so little smut.
The quality of the grain has all been
of the best and while the Yields were
not entirely satisfactory in every in
stance, some phenomenaf yields have
been reported and the total for the
county has been wei, up TO the aver
age. Indeed, it is declared by some
who make it point to keep posted
that the early season estimates OF g.
100000 bushels for the county have
been exceeded. On the other hand.
there are just as good authorities who
insist that the county's crop fell short
of the 5000 900 mark by several thou
sand bushels.
Probably half of the crop has al
ready been sold and has passed from
the hands OF the grower to those Of
the buyer. The greater part of the
wheat sold brought in the vicinity OF
so cents. Some growers let go when
the market was above that price ana
some when it was below, but the av-
erage price paid so far this season is
estimated to be about so cents.

DEPOSED SULTAN ABDUL
HAMID Is 6S YEARS OLD

Constantinople, Sept 22.-Abdul
Hamid II, popularity known as Abdul
Damned. who was sultan of Turkey
for thirty-two years, until his official
head was chopped off by the Young
Turks, is today celebrating his sixty
eighth birthday in the quiet retreat
provided for him by the Turkish gov
ernment
So closely confined is he that he is
little less than a prisoner, and little
authentic news OF him reaches the
outside world. Officially 1t is report
ed that he is happy and contented
and really glad to be free from the
cares OF state and to throw off the
fears of assassination which constant
ly tortured him before his fall from
power.
Many other rumors about the de-
posed ruler are in circulation among
the Turks. One is that Abdul Ha-
mid is not causing the Turkish gov
ernment nearly so much concern as
are his wives. More than 700 women
claiming to have been inmates of Alb
dull Hands harem have appealed TO
the government for redress of their
wrongs, the total compensation de-
manded aggregating nearly a million
dollars. A compromise was affect
ed by promising to pay the ex-sultan's
grass widows monthly pensions of
from 81 to 81. the payments to con-
tinue for a period Of ten years.

FAIR ENTRY BOOKS
ARE THROWN Open
PARTIES WITH EXHIBITS
URGED TO BE EARLY
Books VIII Be Closed On Monday
NOon-Niuch Bustle Around Pavil-
ion-Lights Are in and Work Can
BE Done at Night-Sawdsst on
Ground to Keep Down Dust.

At the district fair office the entry
books were thrown open today and
Secretary Fitz Gerald and his assist
ants are now ready to receive entries.
Parties who intend to have exhibits of
any character whatever are requested
to make entries at once. It Is not
necessary to have the exhibits at the
pavilion at the time. The entries may
be made and the exhibits shipped lat
er. This course Is fonowed so as to
avoid. as much as possible, the rush
that always attends the making of
entries. This year the entry books are
to be closed Monday noon and there
fore those who have entries to make
are instructed to do so before that
time.
Within the big pavilion there is
now a scene Of activity and the place
is rapidly being gotten into shape for
the opening hour. Many of the pri-
vate booths are now being made ready
for their displays and today work was
started upon the Umatilla county
booth.
Today the electric lights were turn
ed on and henceforth those who wish
to work at night upon their booths or
exhibits may do so. The pavilion will
be lighted. The art room was also
opened today and the placing of saw
dust upon the pavilion ground was
started. This sawdust will be kept
sprinkled during the fair week and
will keep down the dust.
Judge Thomas Fitz Gerald, secre-
tary of the fair board, returned last
night from Milton and Freewater,
where he had been to consult resi-
dents of those towns regarding their
exhibit. Through the efforts of the
Judge the Milton-Freewater people
will have an exhibit this year and
their display promises to be one of
the best at the fair. There is no
Milton Freewater exhibit at the WAL
la Walla fair this year.

CROP OF SCHOOL
TEACHERS SHORT

Umatilla county schools are suffer-
enough available to fill all the positi-
ons. This was the announcement
made yesterday afternoon by County
School Superintendent Welles.
There are at least a dozen good
positions in this county at the present
time and to save me l cannot find
teachers for them" declared the
county superintendent. He went on
to state that one of them was a high
school position and that the others
were all good country schools, pay
ing from s55 to s65 per month and
with very light work. There are only
two Of the districts he has listed as
being without teachers where the sal
arly is less than $50.
In all of these districts the boards
are anxious to start school immedi-
ately. They have therefore been
calling frantically for teachers and
the superintendent in turn has ex-
hausted every means at his command
to fill the vacancies. 1t begins to look
as though the teacher famine would
really prove serious problem. Coast
agencies which usually have a large
supply of applicants on hand are this
year unable TO relieve the situation.
A peculiar feature of the situation
in this county is the fact that the SAL
aries being paid are much larger than
in past years, with the exception Of
last. From present indications, still
larger salaries will have to be offered.

New York, Sept. 22.-That an en-
counter between Mayor Gaynor and

opinion of politicians, following the

nor's charge that Hearst papers are
responsible for the attempted assassl-

the following reply from Paris: Am
exceedingly sorry Mayor Gaynor was
shot After his apparent recovery
Gaynor expressed the hope his i'll

Many others entertained the same
hope but unfortunately his experience
did not abate his evil temper or his
lying tongue" The cable went on
to say the attacks by the Hearst pa
