WHEAT SELLS At
LEWISTON FOR s2.l5
HARVEST IN VALLEY is FINISHED
TRUCKS HAUL WHEAT TO
THE WAREHOUSES;
Lewiston Tribunel

Wheat is coming into Lewiston in
considerable volume, the harvest be-
ing practically complete in the Lewis
ton valley. In the upper country the
harvest is just beginning and the
greater portion of the grain crop tri-
butary to Lewiston is yet to be har-
vested.
Although cash wheat on the Chi
cago market lost cents yesterday,
the market here generally held up to
2.15, with considerable receipts.
While the bulk of the wheat in this
locality has in former years been
moved largely by teams and wagons
from the field to the market, it is
now thought that the truck is getting
the lions share of the local crop.
The Johnson road is beginning to
move some of the, wheat crop along
its line. Yesterday, VIM. Watkins, of
lower Tammany, sold to the Nez
Perce Roller Mills his crop of Turkey
Red Wheat at 2.15, and his crop of
rye at 2.75, both 20. b. the Johnson
grain warehouse in Tammany.
While the yield of wheat is not in
all cases fulfilling early estimates,
the quality is found to be generally a
little above the average of former
years.

SENATOR BORAH

SPONSE TO URGENT CALLS
FOR SPEAKING TOUR

Spokane-Senator William E. Bor-
ah of Idaho returned Sunday from a
speaking tour of northern Idaho
which last week took him to Moscow,
Lewiston, Grangeville and Orofino.
He spent most of yesterday in his
room at the Davenport, attempting to
rest between telephone calls.
Tonight he is to spek at Occur
d'Alene, Thursday night at Standpoint
and Friday night at Bonners Ferry.
He has been invited to spek at Kel-
logg at a miners picnic Saturday and
expects to drive part of Friday night
after his Bonners Ferry date to keep
that engagement.
Returning to Spokant next Satur-
day night, the senator expects to
leave Sunday or Monday for the east
in response to repeated urgent re-
quests from Harry s. New, chairman
+, of the republican speakers commit
tee, that he fill some important east
ern speaking engagements.

II have never known so much in

things which constitute general poll
tics. When farmers this time of year
drive long distances to hear policital
questions discussed, they are inter
ested.
'sThe subjects which aroused most
interest are the league of nations,
the high cost of living, which is as
sociated in the peoples mind with
the extravaganza OF
public expenditures, which come
home to them in the form of high
taxes, and the restoration of our civil
rights under the Constitution, the
of constitutional govern
ment. There is a great and general
lesire to see the arbitrary laws Of
var wiped off the statue books and
discarded even as precedents.

sisan feeling is at low ebb. Party

NEW BUILDINGS TO
Be READY ON TIME
ROTH CONSTRUCTION COMPANY
WILL HAVE WORK DONE WHEN
SCHOOL OPENS

Despite the difficulty of securing
men and materials .or building, and
| the high prices of labor and material,
j. c. Roth of the Roth Constructor
Company, which has the contract for
nearly a quarter Oh Il million dollars
worth of buildings TO. the University
CT Idaho and the frat5rnitieA and sor-
,rities, announc III that the buildings
will be completed by-the o4euing of
| the school year, about The middle OF
| September.
The new boys dormito-y is fast
nearing comp.ction and the exterior
work is done AMI tile interior work is
being rushed. The building is of brick,
modern in every particular, and Will
furnish lodging for 100 students and
meals for 200. The building will be
completed and ready for occupancy
the first week in September.
The new wing to the administra-
ton building is almost completed
Work on this started two years ago,
during the war, when it was thought
it would be needed for training SOL
diers for war work. After the war
closed, before the building was COM
pleted, the plans were changed and
it was decided to finish it for a part of
the main administration building in
stead of using it for work shop,
lodging and kitchen for soldiers, as
har been planned. Much of the first
work had to be torn down and the new
wing rebuilt. 1t now conforms to the
remainder of the building and adds
mbuch to it's appearance.
Work on the Phi Delta Theta fra
ternity building, costing $4,000, will
begin tomorrow, with large force of
men The bricks are now on the
ground and the excavation has been
done. Mr. Roth said the building will
be rushed to completion as rapidly as
possible.
The Delta Gamma sorority building
will be completed within 10 days. 1t
will house that sorority and relieve
the demand for rooms in the girls
dormitory.
In addition to Ridenbaugh hall, the
girls dormitory of the university,
which furnishes homes for go girl
students, new dormitory is being
constructed from large residence
and will house 40 more girls, making
homes for 100 girls in the two dorm
tories, in addition to the sorority
houses.
Mr. Roth said today that he has
building contracts in MOSCOW, Pull
man and Lewiston, aggregating more
han $750,000 at this time and the de-
nand for buildings shows rapid and
steady increase.

IRISH ARRESTED WHEN
OUT AFTER MIDNIGHT

DUBLIN, SEPT. 5.-The number
OF persons who are victims OF the
curfew law weekly and the expert
ence which they all must go through
is exciting. if not comfortable. The
majority Of those taken by the mill
tary are persons who had no inten-
ton OF violating the law but are de-
tanned at the home OF a friend be-
yond midnight.
The usual procedure is this: a
military motor lorry filled with
soldiers each with a strong search
light comes up along side Of the un-
fortunate ones and calls upon them
10 halt. 4 request is made for
permit ami If as is usual. there Is
none forth coming. the Dublinites arc
taken into custody loaded into the
truck which then proceeds on it's
way.
From time 20 lime, joyful citizens,
who have dined 100 well, are col
lected and join the party. When
the searchers are through the whole
load Of violaters are taken 10 the
Brideweu prison where they must
spend the night. If the offenders
grove TO be obviously innocent citi-
zens they are released in the morn
ing and are none the worse off
except for the ride in the lorry whics
they say is the worst feature OF the
experience.
Frequently attempts are made to
hide from the approaching lorries
but the searchlights reach the in
nermost corners OF the doorways and
passages and few escape.
