TRANSFORMING BY
SEPTEMBER |
Work is Rapidly Being Fin
ished on Line From Ritz
vile to Ellensburg.

Ritzville, Wash, July 23.-Trains
will be running out of Ritzville on
the misunderstanding cutoff be-
fore September l.
The steel gang with the track-lay-
ing machine is five miles out of Bas-
sett, the station below Moses Lake,
at which junction of the Adrian
Connell branch and the Ritzvllle-
Ellensburg cutoff. An average of
something over a mile a day is be-
ing made, and at this rate the rails
should be laid itno Ritzvllle by the
goth of August, as the entire length
of the road is 38 miles.
The bridge work is all done ex-
cept putting on the decks-the
stringers and les-and this work
cannot be completed except as the
train with the steel gang comes
along to haul and distribute the ma
terial.
Grading Is All Done.
The grading is all done and the
crews have struck their camps and
shipped their outfits away.
The telegraph company has a lot
of material-wire and poles-on the
ground ready for the arrival of the
construction crew from st. Paul.
The well-drilling crews will soon
have their outfits along the line and
commence the rather difficult task
OF finding an ample water supply for
all the uses of the company.
The Northern Pacific people will
be ready to handle their share of the
1910 wheat crop along the line OF
the new Adams County railroad.
New Towns Are Started.
The new Adams county towns on
this line are Klemmer and Schragg'
named after tw of the pioneers llv-
ing in that section.
Klemmer is in section 81, 1882
and II miles from Ritzville, While
Scbragg is in section 1, 1881, or 26
miles from this place. In addition
IN these two towns there will be two
sidings. on which warehouses will be
buiIt for the accommodation OF the
wheat business. The Ritzville Ware
house company has secured sites and
will commence building their line OF
houses Just as soon as the road can
haul out the material.

Puzzled PennSylvanians.

Two fruit growers from the Key
stone state, U. G. Bamitz of Carlisle
and D. NJ Wertz of WaynesborO,
have been in the city for the past
few days. They are on trip of in
vestigation covering nearly all of the
west. The first stories heard about
the productivity of this valley were
listened to with more or less polite
incredulity. But after seeing the
orchards and their heavy burdens of
fruit, they are seeking further infor-
nation. The gentlemen left this
morning for Waterville and will re-
turn here to continue their study
of local conditions and OppOrtuni-
ties.

is Filed.

Persons desiring a mountain
homestead on the summit of the
Cascades, just north of the Siam
pede tunnel, will be given an oppor-
tunity to file on and after Septem-
Der 1, in the North Yakima land Of
flee. The opportunity should have
been given two years ago, but by
some mistake the plat of the portion
of the township that was surveyed
was filed in the Seattle land office
The mistake was discovered only re-
Gently and the plat arrived at Yaki-
ma.
Notice Sent Out.
Register Harry Y. Saint is now

MAY SEE DOLLAR WHEAT
BEFORE SEASON IS OVER
On Account of Shortage of Crop in United States the
price is Going UP Daily in Principal Wheat Mar
kets of the World Sc Flour is Also Looming in
Sight and Smaller Loaves of Bread for Consumers.

Portland, Ore, July 23.-Dollar
wheat and Sc flour are again in
sight, likewise smaller loaves of
bread for consumers
With wheat prices advancing
daily, both here and in Chicago, with
Liverpool, Berlin, Paris, Antwerp
and Budapest each giving out an adj
vanced price for the cereal almost
every day, the outlook for dollar
wheat could scarcely be improved
over the present one.
Millers were Friday freely offer
ing SO cents a bushel for bluestem
wheat, base don track delivery at
Portland, and it is stated that a cent
or two more than this could be
readily obtained for quality above
the average. The Pacific northwest
is yielding its best quality wheat the
present year, and therefore it would
take something exceedingly good to
range above the average.
In company with the advance of
cents a bushel in the price of
wheat Friday, millers announce an
advance of 20 cents a barrel, in the
price of patent hard wheat flour, for
Saturday morning. An advance OF
% cents a barrel will be made at
the same time, in straight grade, and
10 cents in Willamette valley soft
wheat brands. The latter are still
quoted at a price higher than the
best -four.

RAILROADS WIN ON
LUMBER RATES
Master in Chancery Hands
Down Far Reaching
Decision.

St. Paul, Mimi, July 23.-Rail-
roads win a substantial victory in
the findings filed today by Freder-
ick N. Dickson, master in chancery.
These are the preliminary findings
in the lumber rate suit instituted in
1908 against the interstate COM
merce commission by the Great
Northern, Northern Pacific, Union
Pacific and Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy companies. They were
served on the attorneys for both
sides.
The lumber rates established by
the interstate commerce commission
from the Pacific coast to all points
west of the Pembina line, which is
made up of the western boundaries
of Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri are
sustained, but the rates from the
coast to points east of that line are
declared unreasonably low.
Inc TdllTOduS dSh Ioi O. ioeO VI ~
cents per hundred weight on lumber
shipped from Portland, Oregon, to
St. Paul and 60 cents from Portland
to Chicago. The interstate COM
merce commission cut this to As
cents from Portland to St. Paul and
SIS cents from Portland to Chicago
Dickson upholds the contention OF
the railroads and recommends an in
junction multiplying the order of the
interstate commerce commission on
these rates and on other lumber
rates from coast points to the Penn
bina line

at state capftsi.
Discussion of the agitation among
automobilists for a modification Of the
New Jersey automobile law, so that
out-of-the-state owners Of cars can use
the roads of the state at will without
the payment Of any license fee, took
up most of the time Of the members OF
the republican state committee Of New
Jersey at the meeting in Newark

the committee professed to be greatly
alarmed at the spread of the agitation,

tion, introduced by Hamilton F. Kean,
was adopted:
ReS0tCed, That the state committee
recommend to the republican conyen-
tion the consideration of a resolution
at the next session of the legislature
to provide for reciprocal privileges be-
tween aut0m0biliStS of this state and
other states.
The resolution, however, did not
pass Without vigorous opposition from
the representatives of the rural coun-
ties, among them d. Harris Smith, of
alem, and Samuel K. Robin, of Bur
lington, Ex-Governor Murphy, chair
man Of the committee, who, like Mr..
Kean, is the owner of high powered
car, enthusiastically supported Mr..
Kean's resolution, and it was adopted.
Tuesday, September 2Oth, at the
Taylor Opera house, Trenton, was
agreed upon as the time and place for
holding the convention at which the
republican candidate for governor will
be nominated, and Chairman Murphy
issued his call showing the appoint
ment OF delegates by counties. Morris

The name Of the hero In this simple
little romance of 1--we and religion
in which religion first helped love,
and in which love viii Ultimately
