SATURDAYS PRICES
HIGHEST OF YEAR
in Pullman-Nfarket Fluctuates
During Week--Six Cents
Under High Mark
Yesterday
Yesterdays Quotations

The highest price paid for red
wheat in Pullman this season and
with a single exception the highest
price ever paid here was received last
Saturday by Arthur Busby of near
Chambers, when he sold 1900 sacks
of No / red wheat to the Houser
agency at $1.22 the bushel. In
February of last year, after practic-
ally the entire crop of the year be-
fore had been sold, quotations at
least 10 cents higher than Satur-
days figures were made, but the
farmers were in no position to profit
through the advances. This year,
with half the wheat already sold at
figure close to the dollar mark,
and the balance due to go at a price
well above that mark, the farmers
will profit hugely through the high
markets, and a period of prosperity
unprecedented in the annals OF Whit
man county should result.
The highest price paid this year
for barley was $1.72 the hundred
weight, received by w. II. Brabyn
for approximately 500 sacks sold to
William Chambers last Thursday,
while several lots of oats brought
the high market price of $l.4O.
Grain men estimate that so per cent
of the wheat crop, so per cent of the
barley crop and 30 per cent of the
oat crop has already been sold, the
contract and actual prices on the
wheat already sold averaging above
the dollar mark.

WEST SIDE VOTE
DEFEATS BRYAN
Poindexter Nominated for Senator.
Mcbride for Governor, and La
Toilette for Congressman

While the returns of the vote cast
in the state at the primary election
Tuesday are far from complete, they
are sufficient to show who have won
the nominations for all the more i'm
portant offices. Interest In Pullman
conferred in the candidacy of DR.. E.
A. Bryan for the republican nomina-
ton for United States senator. In
the east side counties, where he Is
best known he ran a close race with
Poindexter and led Humphrey by q
substantial margin, but on the west
side he was unable to develop suf-
ficient strength to win. On the re-
turns to date Poindexter has approx
mately $1,000 first and second choice
votes to $4,000 for Humphrey and
$4,000 for Bryan.
On the returns so far received
from 35 counties, Henry Mcbride
has safe lead for the republican
nom ination for governor, the figures
standing: Mcbride, 57,720 frs. and
second choice votes combined; Hart
ley 50,7S1; Sutton, 39,228; Lee.
37,174.
A feature of the primary election
was the big vote polled by W. L. La
Toilette for congressman from the
Fourth congressional district. The
combined first and second choice
votes shown by the returns from all
the counties in the district, except
Grant, are as follows

/, Nominations for
Representative

romnlete returns from all but
..,on of the 70 precincts in Whit
man county show that R. L. McCros-
,ey has been elected superior judge
aver Thomas Neill by a majority of
.nOroximately 1900. On the other
offices only six precincts are missing
and IN all of them a light vote was
,.st so that it will be impossible to
change the results except possibly on
aamocratic candidate for commits
sinner in this district, for which NJ.
n Henry has Lead of only six votes
ner ]. D. Carson. Clinton and Bald
Butte are the only two precincts
missing which are included in this
commissioner district, and it is ex-
vected that Henry will maintain his
lead or possibly increase it.
Both Pullman men are eliminated
from the race for the republican
nominations for state representative
from the Seventh district, Hoover
and Jones leading Campbell and
Watt by substantial margins. Good
year and Miller are the democratic
nominees for the same office.
The county gave Bryan. big vote
for United States senator, thss73 pre-
dncts returning him 1907 first
choice and Gal second choice votes
TO s5S and STA for Poindexter and
$50 and S29 for Humphrey.
LaFollette, for congress, polled
AS2 first choice and 344 second
choice votes to 315 and 836 for Har-
/ risOn, 249 and 842 for Hale and 1S4
and 42S for Fouts. Sutton and Nc
Bride ran close race in the county
for the republican nomination for
governor, Sutton polling 1899 firsts
and 5S2 seconds to 947 and $50 for
Mcbride. Hartley was third with
/ iOS and 524. On the democratic
ticket Lister led Cass, 1885 to 1872.
Mrs. Preston led in this county
for state school superintendent, get
ting 1888 and ACT to TAG and 8S5
Tor Durham and GIG and 1928 for
Ruth Hoffman.
The figures from the 70 pre-
cincts for the county offices for
which there was competition are as
follows:

Comparatively meager western
Washington returns indicate the re-
nomination of Lieutenant Governor
Louis F. Hart, although Arthur w.
Davis of Spokane is maintaining a
good lead in eastern Washington. w.
W. Sherman of Olympia apparently
has defeated Calvin ]. Carr of Ia
coma by a good plurality for the
nomination for state treasurer, and
the denomination of Mrs. Josephine
Preston, as state superintendent OF
instruction, now is generally con-
ceded.
Three supreme court judges, EN-
met N. Parker, Mark A. Fullerton
and George f. Morris, lead the Judi
cial ticket by considerable margin,
and it is probable that each has Sc
cured a majority of all votes cast.
Judge J. Stanley Webster also has
received a clear majority OF all votes
cast for the short term, and the
names of these judges will go on the
November ballot unopposed.
Democratic Contests
In every part of the state Governor
Ernest Lister and George Turner re-
celved heavy majorities over oppos-
ing candidates for the democratic
gubernatorial and senatorial nomi-
nations, respectively.
