PORTLAND.-Jess Applegate, sher-

his entrance into the county bastile,
where he will spend the next 10 days
prisoner of the federal government
for smuggling liquor for his own use.
Charles Buchanan, Hillsboro bust
ness man, and John w. Bailey, Hills
boro banker, convicted with him, were
under Jail sentence also. This fore
noon, however, Federal Judge Wolver-
ton increased their fines to $500 each
and RENTED the 10 days Jail sentence.
In the case of Apologize, however,
the court said that the Jail sentence
would stand for the reason that Apple
gate is an officer of the law. In addi-
ton to his Jail term Apologize will be
to pay fine of $3.50.

GET A SUPPLY OF
COAL THIS SUMMER
FUEL ADMINISTRATOR ADVISES
ALL WHO BURN COAL TO
GET 1T BEFORE FALL

In wheat raising country like ours
around Moscow it is patriotic duty
for every one to store away their sup
ply of coal for winter use during the
slack shipping months of May and
June. To encourage this the coal
mines of Utah and Wyoming have re-
duced the price of their coal which is
prepared in special sizes for domestic
use 40 cents ton at the mine. In adj
dition to this the state fuel admins
traitor has issued an order cutting the
dealers margin of profit % cents a
ton where they can deliver from the
car to the consumer without passing
the coal through their bins and hand
ling it twice This makes a reduction
of 20 cents ton which is given as an
inducement for buying and storing this
kind of coal now.
There will be a car shortage again
this fall, and if we have a hard winter,
fuel famine also, unless people store
their coal at this time. The reason
for this is plain. Our wheat used to
go TO tidewater at Portland or Puget
Sound for shipment. This took about
to 10 days for car to make q round
trip, and be on hand for a new load. In
this way the crop could be handled
with few cars. On account of the lack
Of vessels now, the most of our wheat
has to go to the Atlantic ports for ship
ment, journey requiring from 80 to
so days for the round trip before the
car is back for reloading On this ac-
count it will take from four to six
times as long to ship our surplus wheat
this year than before the war, or it will
take from four to six times as many
cars to handle it. If these cars are
required to haul coal at the time they
should be used to haul wheat to our
boys in France, the blame can be laid |
at the door of those who do not buy |
and store their winter coal now. 1t |
is your patriotic duty to buy and store
what coal you can at this time Do not |
delay. Do it now.
