BUMPER CROP OF WHEAT WITH
GOOD PRICES ARE PROSPECTS

With harvest days almost at hand
the prospective price for wheat this
year is growing quite as satisfactory
as the prospective bumper crop for
old Umatilla county. There are strong
signs that this time the farmers will
get them going and a-coming." In
other words they will reap big yields
and sell their wheat at high prices.
A month ago wheat was contracted
for in the local market at rs cents per
bushel. Only recently some wheat
was contracted for at figures upwards
OF 70 cents. while barley has sold
at $1.25. According to the buyers
the early contracts were to fill small
orders for early delivery. But they
do not say those prices will not main
tain.
1T is my belief that the local mar
ket will open up with the price rang
ing between 20 and rs cents" says
John Montgomery, manager for the
Puget Sound warehouse company. In
the view of Mr.. Montgomery there
will be little activity though until the
first of the month. The present wea-
ther while good for the grain will

ROUNDUP COWBOY BAND TAKES
FIRST PRIZE IN CONTEST At WALLA WALLA

With new jewels added to their
crown, the members of the Pendleton
Roundup Cowboy band returned this
morning from Walla Walla where
they played during the two-day cele-
bration and where yesterday afternoon
in open competition they won first
prize in the band contest, the same

dreds of people who showed their
appreciation by loud applause.
Each band played two selections, a
march and an overture, each being
allowed to pick the pieces played. The
playing order was decided by lot,
Athena playing first. Weston ladies'
band second, and the Pendleton
Roundup band, third.
The judges were in a room in the
courthouse behind closed shutters and
were not informed rs to the playing
order Consequently the selections
were made by number, three being
given first place. one second place
and two, third place.
The judges were Dad Maxwell, Abe
Schniffner and Tom Bruce.
Many Other Engagements.
The next engagement which the 10.
cal band has is during the Elks' con-
vention in Portland, the local lodge

have the effect OF making the harvest
trifle later than in normal years.
The crop outlook Is exceptionally good
and there are indications OF the larg-
est crop in the history of the country.
The finest thing about the crop stu
alton is that the yields will be good
this year in light land sections where
large yields are not invariable. On
the reservation where good crops are
the rule rather than the exception
some wheat will be lost through hav-
ing fallen down, but the loss will be
light and it can be easily endured.
Wheat May Go East.
feature of the market this year
thus far is the report that wheat may
go east in a considerable quantity
this year instead of going abroad as
usual. 1t is said that the foreign
charters made thus far have been at
rather high prices and that before the
season is over the country may see
much inland empire wheat enroute to
Chicago by rail. How much merit
there may be in this surmise remains
to be seen. The thing has the effect
though of making the market stiff.

lead the Pendleton part of the pa
rade. While in Walla Walla the
band was engaged to play at Freewa-
ter during the annual peach festival
having given excellent satisfaction at
that occasion last year.
r. w. Fletcher manager of the
band, is also negotiating with the
management of the Calgary Stampede
and it is very possible that as a re-
suit, the full Instrumentation with
their horses will be secured as an
attraction by the Canadian wild west
show. The negotiations have prog
ressed so far that T. F. O'Brien O.-W.
r. & N, agent has received a letter
from the Stampede officials, asking
him for rates for the band.
The tentative engagement which
the band had with the Seattle Pot
latch has been cancelled owing to
the fact that no engagement could be
secured between the Elks' convention
and the Potlatch. The original in
tention was to take the musicians and
their mounts direct from Portland to
Seattle but as several days intervene
between the two big events, the cost
of holding the band was considered
prohibitive.
From the widespread recognitio7
which is being given the band, it is
evident that it is becoming one of the
best known musical organizations in
the northwest and, as such, is big
asset in an advertising way to Pen
dleton.

HOSE COMPANY NO. 3
DENIES 1T Is DEAD"
Statement Issued in Which 0rgani-
zation is Defended from
Recent Attacks

Denying emphatically that they are
dead and declaring that they will
demonstrate their liveliness IL an at
tempt is made to remove their hose
cart from the north side OF the river,
the members OF Hose Co. No. have
become aroused over the controversy
regarding their alleged inactivity and
today issued the following statement
over the signature OF w. r. Taylor,
ex-foreman of the company:
I'VE have noticed our company has
been declared dead and also that the
hose cart was to be taken from the
north side providing we did not re-
organize. The North Side company has
never missed a call, and has respond
ed to many Of the large fires in the
down town district. At the present
time and for the past year we have
had a full company of Is members,
seven OF the number being exempt
and some having served for 10 years.
Our lack of activity, IL any. has been
due to the fact that the North Side
Messrs Ell and Vaughan arises from
the fact that our foreman has not at
tended the monthly meetings of the
board of foremen. We would suggest.
as the city cannot afford a paid de-
partment and never encourages the
volunteer companies, that 1t could
easily pay the foremen one dollar
for their attendance at each meet
ing. The total amount for the year
would not exceed 500, for all the
companies.
1--WE challenge any team save and
and the hook ana ladder company
for better record, and our activity
will be demonstrated when Mr. Ell
or any one else attempts to take our
cart away-until there is paid de-
partments"

RELIGIOUS INDIANS
ALSO CELEBRATING

While the so-called wild Indians
are encamped at Cayuse celebrating
by racing, dancing, and tribal games
the past glory of their race, the re-
ligious element of the local red peo-
pie are gathered at the old agency
celebrating the new order of things
which has come to their race through
civilization. Though not so large nor
spectacular as the Cayuse celebration
that of the religious Indians is none
the less enjoyable to the participants,
and none the less interesting to the
white observers.
Between 125 and $50 Indians are
encamped at the old agency and at

seats at the table. During the after

Walla Walla, July 6.-The murder
Thursday of Mrs. Ada Proctor, and
her two children, by her former hus-
band, Artillery Sergeant Jay r. Proc

Cosmopolitan hotel, Is West Poplar
street, in which he killed the little
girl and himself. The note reads:

nomination at the Chicago convention

said bosses could not be escaped by
the organization of new parties and
that of those republicans who after
intelligent injuries, concluded that
President Taft's denomination was
the result of fraudulent votes, the
conclusion was reached that the NOM
inee of the convention is not the
nominee of the republicans. He point
ed out, however, that disappointment
or individual dishonesty cannot be

PENDLET0N WILL NOT |
BE LOST IN SHUTTLE.
BronCos Of Roundup Type Will
Be Feature Of Big
Parade

The following is taken from the
Portland Telegram of Friday even
ing, showing that Pendleton will sure
be there with bells at the big Elks'
celebration:
"Pendleton will make a demonstra-
ton in the great parade Thursday
that Portland will not soon forget"
said Roy Bishop, the wooden manu-
facturer of that city this morning,
following registration at Elks' head
quarters.
Arrangements have been made to
ship to this city $50 saddle horses,
with their rigs complete. Some OF
these will be bronchos of the Round
up type. In the Pendleton lodge are
some of the best riders of the Round
up. Every man from Pendleton en-
tering the parade is to be fitted out
as a cowboy of the western type.
Sheep skin chapparaios and a full
cowboy rig, soft shirts and sombrero
hats will be the uniform. We intend
to make a showing in this parade
which will be equal to any wild west
production to be seen, outside of the
Roundup itself"
The enormous shipment of horses
required to stage this part of Pendle-
ton in the parade, and the 500 or 500
people coming from that city, will
make two or three full trains, if run
together. 1t is the purpose to have
the horses arrive here a day or two
ahead of the date for the parade, that
the lodge members may get their
outfits in shape and accustom the
horses to the streets
If it is safe, some of the animals
taken out will be bucking bronchos.
There will be riders in the bunch ca
pable of entering any bucking contest
of the country, and also experts with
the riata. When this aggregation
launches forth in the streets of Port
land, and the tens of thousands of
eastern visitors behold the pageant,
it is expected there will be some real
excitement of the western order.
