Out-of-town residents are bidding
against Pendleton people for the hon

Oregonian to the winners. AS the con-

from rural districts of the county and
from different cities over the north

An Echo boy of eleven would be-
stow upon the two animals the names
of Roundup King and Roundup

OF POLK
INEXPLICABLY DISAPPEAR

INDEPENDENCE, Ore, July 20
What is considered remarkable is the
recent seeming abatement in the in
crease in the jackrabbits in Polk
county A few years ago the county
seemed overrun with the destructive
animals, which would eat the bark off
the young fruit trees, as well as eat
much grain. There were two species,
a light gray and a brownish blue. At
present only a few jacks are making
their appearance. Just where the
others have gone at this time of the
year cannot be ascertained by county
folk. They are known to take to the
more hilly regions OF the valley but
not many have been found there Last
season teamsters would occasionally
run one of the animals into county
town, ami autoists would notice them
along the roadside on all the high
avs of the county. Old fence rows
proved an ideal place of resort, and
in those places they were hard to get
at.

ACTION OF BANKS
SENT BONDS DOWN
Secretary McAdoo Charges That New
York Institutions Responsible
for Decline.

WASHINGTON. July 29.-Secretary
McAdoo issued a statement fatty
charging that the decline of g, Yern-
ment two per cent bonds to 95 1-2-
new low record-was due almost
wholly to what appeared to be a cam
paign waged with every indication of
concerted action on the part of
number Of influential New York City
banks TO cause apprehension and un-
easiness about these bonds in order
to help them in their efforts to defeat
the currency bill
Banks throughout the country own
almost entirely $730,SS2130 of the
two per cent bonds. Their market
value was approximately $50, 900, 600
lower than when the banks bought
hem. Almost all the entire issue is
u e. as security for national bank
notes the present price. however.
the dis. ~7cy between the market
value and t. ssues of notes against
the bonds is coz reod by what is known
as the five per cent redemption fund,
deposited by the banks with the treas
ury to care for retirements Of nation
al bank notes.
Bonds Worth Par.
Secretary McAdoo announced it was
not his intention to require the banks
TO charge off the present depreciation
below par. but that the banks might
continue to put in the bonds at par
in their statements to the comptroller
of the treasury until some material
change should compel the adaptation
of another course"
In his statement Secretary McAdoo
declared the per cents were worth
par Notwithstanding their decline in
the New York market, and continued:
THE idea seems to be that the
country banks which hold about two
thirds of the per cent bonds, and
use them as the basis for their circu-
lating notes, may be induced to be
united with the New York city banks
in opposition to the bill If they can
be made to believe that the proposed
currency measure is going to injure
these bonds and cause losses to the
banks. This is, of course, unfounded."

the blaze from the burning restaurant.
The French restaurant and Olynn-
pia saloon suffered considerable dam
by water, although the flames did
not reach them by considerable dis
tance. Fearing lest the firemen would
be unable to check the advance OF
the fire, the proprietors of the res
taurant and lodging house above un-
wound the hose on the reel In the
upper hallway. An automatic ar
rangement turns on the water as soon
as the reel is unwound and no one
seemed to know just where or how
TO turn it off. Finally a man was sent
into the basement where. after some
difficulty, he succeeded in cutting off
the water, but not until the carpets
in the rooming house had been soak
ed and the restaurant and saloon be-
low flooded. The damage done win
not be extensive.
Wires Burned Out.
The fire burned out a good many
electric light wires, leaving the Tall
man Drug Co., the Penland lodging
house and Counor cigar store without
Juice" but the wires are being re-
/ placed today.
E. ]. Burke whose wife is one Of
! the owners of the Thompson block,
/ was not aware that the property had
/ been threatened until this morning.
when Mr. Tallman requested him to
see about having the burned out
| wires replaced.

tity of fireworks stored in the Chi

! 1t was one of the hottest and most
! dangerous fires Pendleton has exper-
fenced for some time and that there
was no more damage done is consid-
cred remarkable.

ALUMINIUM USE
ON INCREASE
Metal Is Being Put to Many New
Uses-Mines Are Being Rapidly
Developed

WASHINGTON, July ga notable
increase in the use of aluminus dur
ing the past year in the United States
is due to the many new uses to which
the metal is put, is stimulating pri-
vate corporations to expend large
sums of money in developing bauxite
ore mines in New York. Pennsyyvan-
Ia, Illinois, Carolina, Tennessee and
other states. according to a report
made today by the United States geo.
logical survey More than $1,000, 600
pounds of aluminium were consumed
during 1912 as compared with 46.125,-
600 pounds consumed during the year
1911. The domestic development of
bauxite ore. from which aluminium is
derived during 1912 was valued at
s7SB,9S2 as compared with a much
smaller amount during the preceding
year, but even this increase failed to
satisfy the demand and left open a
great margin for imported bauxite
and aluminium, The imports of the
ore and the finished metal were rec
ord breaking during 1912.
The manufacture of new aluminium
-oducts includes long distance pow
er transmission wires. household ware
and cooking utensile. powdered metal
for paint pigment, lithographing and
manufacture of explosives. Aluminium
foil for wrapping tobacco and candy
is rapidly replacing tinfoil and because
of its non-corrosive qualities, alumi'
mum metal is being used in the con
struction of tanks, cooking vats anC
vessels used in breweries. preserve
manufactures and similar industries
where heat conduction and non-corro
| sion are essential
