r. W. Robson, of Eight Mile, {
prosperous farmer of that section and
pioneer of Morrow county, was al
most instantly killed on the road oul
from lone Wednesday evening. He
vas driving along past the Alex
Lindsay place on his way home from
town, when something caused one of
the horses to get frightened and the
team suddenly turned about, throwing
Mr.. Robson to the ground causing
injuries from which he died within a
very few minutes. The accident
occurred at 80 and while directly in
front of Mr.. Lindssv's residence.
The prostrate man was at once
picked up but before any medical
assistance could be called he had ex-
pired. The remains we're taken to
his home at Eight Mile by Johnny

full farmers Of his section of Eight

Boosting That Counts.

Believing that one of the best ways
to discount the work of the knockers
against the Irrigon irrigation project
with the interior department. at
Washington, is to show the Secretary
himself just what is being done there,
Mr.. L. B. Kicker, one of the biggest
boosters of that section, recently sent
to Secretary Lane box of their
choice cherries in illustration of wha
is being raised on the project. Mr..
Kicker states that I'VE are going to
keep this up all summer, and send
him the first and incest of every fruit
that we raise here. "
This il the kind of boosting that
counts, End it will no doubt be the
means oi getting early aud proper
recognition Of the claims of the Irri-
gon pro ect before the reclamation
set vice. S'The proof of the pudding
is in the eating" and no better fruits
are RAISED anywhere than at IrriRon
as the sAEeppner people can verify.
And by the wav, l.. B., don't fail to
forward the Hon. Secretary one of
those big melons a littEe later: that
will make him sit up Rnd take notice.
The Secretsry's letter of acknow-
Judgement follows:

Washington June 25, 1913.

Knappenberg Boosts For
lone and Morrow Co.
AT Portland.

J. T. Knappenberg, presideOt of the
lone Commercial Club broke out in
print in the Portland papers while in
that city last week and ne did some
good boosting for lone and Morrow
county Mr.. Knappenberg tolG the
people of the metropolis how ideas
and conditions were changing in Nor
row county and that the change has
been rewarded by success. Diversified
farming is redeeming Morrow county
from a land dependent entirely upon
the success of The annual wheat crop
to an area of certain financial returns
and general prosperity. The farmers
around lone have gone extensively
into the dairy business, hog raising
and poultry culture according to Mr..
Knappenberg in an interview in last
SUNDAYS OregonIan. The dry years
have taught the lesson, for then there
was nothing to fall back upon when
the farmer experienced a failure in
his wheat crop. Now he has his cat
tie, swine and poultry to fall back
upon. The fact that the Morrow
county farmer is becoming prosperous
is shown by the great number of auto
mobiles which have come into common
use. Mr.. Knappenberg says, cit is
no uncommon sight to see farmer
drive to town with the tonnesu of his
machine filled with farm products.
He will take them to market and then
load I'D his machine with fence wire.

one to paw $50 or $50 an are for land

HEPPNER'S STRONG
TEAM IS DEFEATED
Too Many Errors In Early
Part of Game Proves
Fatal To Locals.

HepOneI again received deIeaC al
the hands of the fast Condor bunch in
the game played on the local diamond
last Sunday. Both teams PLAYED fast
ball and barring few errors on
Heppner's side the game was the
cleanet played in this section for two
or three years. The score, which
was three to two should really have
been two TO one in favor of the local
team. Elliott'a bad playing In the
first inning was one of the bad fea-
lures of the game and extremely dis
astrous for the Heppner fans. Con-
don succeeded in getting away with
three runs in the first which were all
they could manage to take throughout
the whole game. From the first in
ming up to the sixth the score board
was series of goose eggs on both
sides but Heppner finally succeeded
in sending one man across the plate
in that frame and another in the
ninth.
NOTES ON GAME.
Reid's work both on the bases aud
at the bat was very satisfactory.
Naughton at short improved Hepp-
ner's infieId.
Mays behind the bat for Heppner
did some fine pegging in catching men
off third and FIRST bases.
Harlsn's three bagger was a pretty
hit. Too bad Inc couldn't have saved
it for the last inning.
Geise at first for Heppner was the
star at bat
Reid was victim of umpire MOewis's
poor eyesiRht as was plainly seen BY
his decision On second.
Doty, CoD&on's star third sacker is
a classy player and appears to be the
star of the team.
Ashanfeher for Condor stitched q
great game striking out IA and allow
ing but hits.
hetstone and Burns were the stars
at bat for Condor.
Sperry shows great Improvement
both in his fielding and batting.
Blakely pitched himself out of a
bad hole in the 9th.
r. FitLmaurice went in to pinch hit
for Howland but was a victim of
Harlan's benders.
Elliott got off to the bad in the
first frame and was bencned by Alli-
son.
MILESTONE romps around the key
stone sack like a professional.
Burns broke back into the game and
came throGVh with some good hits.
Thompson, Heppner's eE-pugilist
shows good form.
Morris &nd Cronan did very good
work but the formers decisions were
some what cratic and considered by |
some to be aboluteIy rotten.

New York, July 26.-The eastern
railroads today withdrew their de-
mands that their grievances against
their employees should be considered by
the federal board appointed to arbi-
trate the demands for better wages
and working conditions. made by con-
ductors and trainmen.
This concession apparently removed
the only remaining obstacle to arbitra-
tion and averted q strike. With this
issue disposed of, the railroad manag
ers and the labor leaders expected to
reach a speedy agreement on the text
Of the questions to be laid before tho
board Of arbitration.
In a statement explaining their posi-
ton the managers said they had made
thio concession because they felt 1t
was their duty to protect the travelling
public.
Railroads Win One Point.
After a brief conference with the
labor leaders the mediators announced
that the articles Of arbitration would
present the sixteen original demands CT
the employees without change. The
only point won by the railroads. was
the agreement that the decision OF the
arbitrators would become effective on
Oct. /. instead Of being retroactive.
On Verge Of Settlement.
A series OF rapid fire conferences be-
tween the federal mediators. the rail-
road managers and representatives Of
the trainmen and conductors, which
ended early today. brought the confer
ences to the verge Of q settlement.

Toxic. July 2S.-Some Of the leading
newspapers today accuse the Japanese
cabinet Of lack Of diplomatic adroitness
in the negotiations connected with the
California alien land ownership legis-
lation. They urge that advantage
should be taken Of Mexico's friendli-

At the same time they question the

today in connection with Japanese
participation in the Panama Pacific

THE authorities understand that 1t
is reasonable for japanese merchants
to refuse to exhibit at the Panama
Pacific exposition owing to their nat

ownership bill. but such participation
would ease the situation. The Japa-
