For the general purpose of secur-

conditions in eastern oregon and for

the fishways of the Coe and Irrigon
dams, State Game Warden stevenson
and Master Fish Warden Clanton are

Investigating trips out from this point.
Later they will go into the John Day
country from where complaints have
arisen concerning the disregard for
fish laws.
Ordinarily, these matters are attend
ed to by deputies but the two officials
stated this morning that they are act
ing upon a suggestion made by Gov
ernor West that they secure first hand
information on the matters. Mr..
Stevenson states that the vacancies
in the deputy offices are being filled
as rapidly as possible and that all old
deputies recently removed who were
found to be efficient would be rein
stated, He stated that both of the
deputyships in this county are at
resent vacant but would be filled i'm
mediately by temporary appointments

PENDlETON COMMERCIAL CLUB
PLANT 1900 ACRES
TO BROOM CORN

Spokane, Wash.-More than 1900
acres of non-irrigated lands in the
Walla Walla valley, south of Spokane,
and other parts of eastern Washing
ton will be planted to broom corn this
spring. The crop has been grown sue
cessfully in the Touchet, Gardena and
Snake river districts and the product
marketed at good figures. Gustav
Meese, owner of a broom factory in
Spokane, says an acre of land, prop
erly cultivated, will produce 1900
pounds of broom corn, which, at the
prevailing price of $50 a ton, means
a gross production of about $65 an
acre, or from 100 to $50 per cent
more than the revenue from an acre
of wheat. Manufacturers in the
northwest are encouraging the grow
ers by enlarging their plants to work
up all the raw material that is offer
ed. The combined output of two fac
tories in Spokane and Walla Walla is
115 dozens of brooms a day, but the
supply is not equal to the demand
chiefly because in the past not suf-
ficient broom corn was produced in
the country to supply the needs of the
Il cal factories.

HIGH FIGURE FOR .
HOPS Is PREDICTED

There will be exciting times in the
hop market next Fall, if the views of
Portland hop men are correct. Not
for score of years has the outlook
been so promising for high prices The
entire crop of the world, it is figured
cannot. even under the most promis-
ing conditions, come up to the require
ments of the brewers. Supplies OF old
hops will be exhausted by the thine
the 1911 crop comes on the market.
This is something that has not oc-
CURED for many years. In 1904, when
prices scared so high, the market was
not as bare of available supplies as it
Is now, for there were then many an
cient growths stored away in private
warehouses. some Of them even Is
yeaI old. This year, for the first
time since the veterans of the hop
trade can remember, there will be no
absolute clean up Of reserve stocks.
Therefore. with a reduced output. as
shown by the decreased worlds aver
age, and a larger consumption Of hops
than .rcs ever known before, prices
are likely to soar to dizzv heights.

Countess is SMindler.

New York.-Countess Anna Gustav
OXentierna was among the alleged
swindlers arrested by postal officials
recently for working the so-called BIZ
BILE game, and will be given a hearing
next week. 1t is alleged in her be-
half that she received mail addressed
to &C. NJ. Schmidt" in her care only
out of friendship for Bertel Kallen-
burg, a butler, and that she was ig
ncrant of the kind of business he was
conducting. The Countess is the wife
OF a Swedish nobleman who is en-
gagged in the marine insurance busi-
ness. Kallenburg's method of oper-
alton was to get death notices, through
q clipping bureau, from all over the
country and to address to the de-
ceased a letter stating that the speci-
al Bible ordered. on which SO had
been paid. was ready for shipment
and would be forwarded upon receipt
of the balance, Sc. These letters usu-
ally fell into the hands of relatives of
the deceased who promptly forwarded
the Sc to the fictitious Schmidt"

BERLIN DYE WORKS DESTROYED

shortly after 1 o'clock this after
noon. fire broke out in the back end
of the building at the corner of Court

Berlin Dye Works and within half
an hour before the firemen could

pletely gutted it and almost destroy
ed one of the historic landmarks of

was the amount of insurance carried
upon 1t. The building, too, was in

and the principal loss falls upon the
patrons of the shop who had cloth
ing in the building. Nearly all of
this was destroyed or badly damaged.
Just how much this amounts to, Jack
Webster. proprietor of the shop, Is
unable to say, but states It is con-
siderable amount.
According to Mr.. Webster. the fire
was caused by the fumes of the gas
oline becoming ignited by the boiler.
The flames spread through the frame
structure with incredible swiftness and
by the time the firemen arrived on
the scene with their hose carts, the
structure was mass of fire. Their
work was made doubly difficult by
the explosion of n gasoline tank
which spread the flames after they
had been all but subdued. While at

wards. II was in the latter wards
