Maury county has produced the
largest crop of Irish potatoes that it
has produced since the record crop
of 1908. 1t is estimated by C. d.
Park, Of the well known produce
house of Park Bros, and one of the
heaviest buyers in the county, that
the total crop of the county will be
between Is 0and 200 cars. Other
dealers agree with this estimate and
are inclined to think that 200 cars is
nearer the mark than the 100 cars.
Park Bros. have already bought fif-
teen cars and have almost that
amount more in sight. At Ashwood
and in the southern section of the
county large crops have been raised
and in many instances farmers are
holding for better prices. Taking all
into consideration it is believed that
that crop of the county will be not
less than 200 cars.
! The crop has sold at an average of
$50 per barrel. There are about
1872 barrels to the car. A car is there
fore worth about $3.50. This would
make the total crop of the county
worth $4,000. However, it will be
worth much more than that to the
farmers for many of them are storing
their crops and for those stored they
will receive in the winter and early
spring larger price. An estimate Of
between $4,000 and 100000 for the
potato crop would not be very far
wrong
At Culleoka, one of the small sta
tons of the county, there will be at
least forty cars shipped. The Guile
Okla Produce Company will probably
handle not less than twenty-five or
thirty cars and other dealers have al
ready shipped six cars. One farmer
has about nine cars that he will hold
and there are several smaller crops
being held. When the yield per acre
is taken into consideration and the
further fact that much of this land
has already been sown in wheat and
that wheat makes splendidly after po-
tatoes, the crop appears one Of the
most valuable grown in the county.

ENORMOUS VALUATIONS OF
GOVERNMENT COAL LANDS

Under the present scheme of classi-
wing government coal land 56,0S9,2l4
acres of withdrawn land had been, on
August LIST, examined in geological de-
all and classified by the United States
geological survey. The lands found to
contain workable coal beds aggregated
l6,S73,370 acres. These lands, in for
ty-acre tracts, have been appraised by
he survey at a total valuation OF
$711 ,992 ,537, in prices ranging from
he minimum figure stated in the coal
aw-$10 or 500 on acre, according to
whether the land is located within
fifteen miles of the railroad-to fig
nres of over $400 an acre where the
thickness of the coal beds may aggre-
rate 90, so or 100 feet, or even more.
fhe government valuations accord in
a general way with the market values
Of private coal lands in the west, al
though as a matter of fact they are
somewhat more liberal to the purchas
er. -Four hundred dollars an acre may
eem a high price for Uncle Sans
coal land, which a few years ago might
have been bought for $40 an acre.
However, the geological surveys plan
Of classification and valuation con
templates that the government should
receive at least a reasonable return
for its coal, admittedly the most useful
rock mineral in its possession. When
it is unerstood that an acre with, say,
~ forty-foot ped or seam contains ap
proximately 10000 tons of coal and an
ere with 100 feet of coal contains
49, 900 tons, the price asked by the
government, instead of being exorbi
tant, seems, on the other hand. hardly
sllfiicient. On land having a thickness
# eighty feet of coal $400 an acre
would be less than 3 cents a ton. In
reality, under the survey regulations
which consider depth of the coal, num-
her of beds, quality and other physi-
al details, the price asked for many
areas containing eighty feet of coal
are equivalent to nearer 2 than ;
cents a ton.

FISHER MAY NOT GET
TO INSPECT PROJECT

Secretary of the Interior Fisher
will probably not get to visit Herm's-
ton and the Umatilla project but will
pass through Pendleton September S
en- route to Boise from North Yaki-
ma.
Information to this effect was re-
ceived here today from d. c. Brow
mel of Umatilla, who has been in the
city. According tc Mr.. Brownell he
recently discussed with Mr.. Blanchard
the question of the West Umatilla ex-
tension and the secretary's visit He
was informed by Mr.. Blanchard that
IT is very probable the secretary's
itinerary will be such that he will be
eorced to forego inspecting the pro-
ject in person.
In the view of Mr.. Brownell, the
outlook for the extension seems very
bright and he is also hopeful over the
outlook in the town of Umatilla There
is one new building under way in the
little town now and others are prom
ised. With the development work
promised for the near future and with
the river busines, Mr.. Brownell be-
!ieves that Umatilla's future looks

Threatened With Being Killed.

Chesterfield Court House, Va Sept
a de ,ided victory was scored to-
Gay by the defense in the case of Hen
r. Clay Beattie, Jr, and a sensation
created when the mysterious witness"
in the person of Charles Kastellberg,
d Richmond meat dealer, was put on
he witness stand and testified that
lie was the man who was working
over his automobile on the Midlothian
Pike, wh!ie a woman stood on the
running board the night of the mur-
Ger of Mrs. Beattie, for which the
young husband is being tried.
Kastellberg stated that his woman
companions identity was unknown to
him and that he had not mentioned
the matter until the Beattie develop
ments threatened to put the incident
on an innocent person, for fear of do
n, estic trouble in his own home over
the affair. He stated that he was at
the time re-filling his radiator.
This in great measure, substanti-
ates the contention Of Henry Beattle
that his automobile had not stopped
previous to the murder.
Elsie Mosely. an aged negress today
testified that she had heard two
shots and the blast OF an auto horn,
from her home near the scene of the
murder.
w. II. Sampson, a personal friend

Walla Walla, Wash, Sept. .
Having spent a night and part of a
day in filthy cell in the county Jail,
where she was confined and not al

hand or attorney following her arrest
on the charge of being implicated in
the performance of an illegal surgical
operation which is alleged to have
resulted in the death of Mrs. Della

of $4,000 which was furnished by
friends as soon as 81 had been fixed.
DIR. John a. Hamilton, who is alleg

IN the Prather sanitorium, is still IN
custody and his bail is fixed at $10,-

The body of the dead woman was
exhumed yesterday and examined by

be held later and local physicians, it
IS believed, will do everything in their

do not approve of the methods used
by the physician owner of the SAN

That the Indians on the reservation
are not reconciled to the loss of the
thorn Hollow springs and may put
l p an armed resistance to their use as
Il source CT water supply for Pendle-
ton is apparent from reports receiv-
&c in this city today. Red Elk, son
of Wenix, one of the squaws who for
merly owned the land on which the
springs are located, is the head of the
opposition and last night succeeded in
driving the crew of men engaged in
developing the springs away by
threats.
a telegram to that effect was re-
ceived by the water commission and
orders to hold their ground until fur
ther directions were wired back to
them, according to advices. Other
reports t. the effect that Red Elk with
a small hand Of braves had taken up
position on the high bluffs and had
opened fire have been received but
there is no confirmation.
For some time past the Indians
have beeh threatening to arm them
selves and drive the workers away
Gnd last night after dusk Red Elk
went to the springs and, with a large
hoe, began filling in the bitches which
the men have been digging. From
the telegram received it is apparent
that he intimidated the. crew to the
extent that he was not interfered
with.
The wafer commissioners are 10th to
discuss the situation further than
saying that everything is all right.
