was not within the power of the
contestant to show the reasons why
the alleged illegal voters changed
their party affiliations, the contest
ant might as well quit. anyone may
change his party affiliations in good
faith" said Attorney Collier, "but
the court should hear additional facts
to determine the credibility of the
statements of these witnesses"
In reply Judge Kelly said the wit
ness had answered all the questions
frankly and that the contestant had
failed to make prima facie show
ing that the witness had changed
his party affiliations in bad faith.
"As a result of this" said Judge
Kelly, 1--WE have no right to inquire
whom the witness voted for.
"Had there been testimony to
show that Mr.. Brentano voted il
legally, then it would be proper to
compel the witness to divulge the
name of the candidate for whom he
voted and the reasons why he
changed his party affiliations at the
polls," the court said.

DEER GIVEN REFUGE

To insure the protection and in
crease Of white-tailed deer, now al
most extinct in Oregon, a tract of
10000 acres, east of Oakland, has
been set aside as a game refuge, by
order of the state game commission,
the order going into effect immedia-
tely, says the Cottage Grove Seminal.
White-tailed deer were once common
in Oregon, especially in the William
ette valley, but they fell easy prey
to the guns Of the earlier Oregon resi-
dents. At present few are, to be
found, and practically all of these
are banded together in one herd in
the vicinity of Oakland. Shooting
will be prohibited on the reserve at
all times and interference with the
animals will also be unlawful.

FIRES UNDER CONTROL

General rains throughout the tim
ber sections of the Pacific North
west. have brought the forest fires
under control, with the result that
much valuable timber will be saved
The burned-over areas total consider
able acreage, both in the states of
Oregon and Washington. Not drop
of rain fell in the month of July,
and fighters were put to a disadvan-
tage in coping with forest fires.

FARMERS WILL SEED EARLY

A soaking rain which began to fall
last Friday evening was hailed with
delight throughout this section and
especially in the upland districts
where it will be the making of the
potato crop. Merritt A. Baker, gov
ernment weather observer at Wes-
ton, reports that the precipitation
reached total Of 1.34 inches. Har-
vest was delayed to some extent, but
nobody had any complaint to make
over this phase Of the weather stu
alton. Farmers say that the ground
is wet thoroughly, which will bring
weeds up in a hurry. They can thus
get rid of these pests and prepare
the ground for early seeding. The
experience of the past few years, and
especially this season, is said to have
convinced farmers that early seeding
is the proper agricultural caper in
this locality.

Ennels Missing
Mountain Spuds

Friends of Mr.. and Mrs. W. C. En-
mel will be glad to know they are
well settled and pleased with their
new location OF Newton, Iowa, where
Mr.. Emmel has established a ]. c,
Penney store. Regarding the town
they write:
Newton is live little place when
1t is normal. They say there is not
better town for its size in the U,
5. for business; but the factories have
all been closed down for year and
had just been started when the coal
shortage and rail strike hit us, so
they are only running part time now.
On Saturday nights we have reg
ular Roundup crowd (for size) and
cars are parked so thick you can
hardly get through. Hope to open
our store on Aug. II. We had n
fine trip-about 21OO miles, with on
ly about 150 miles of bad roads. We
took the Yellowstone Trail to the
North entrance to the park. II is
truly wonderland and the roads in
there are great. Kenneth caught a
1O-inch trout and fell in, so he lad
all the thrills Of full fledged fish
erman. After you pay your entrance
fee, you can fish to your hearts de-
light free Of charge. We saw one
wild bear at the bear feeding grounds,
and geysers and hot springs galore.
Old Faithful is the biggest geyser
now. 1t plays every so minutes, and
when it starts, it sure does shoot.
The Mammoth hot springs are the
most wonderful and the most beauti-
full in the Park, and the terraces are
truly wonderful. Going out the Cody
entrance the wonders are simply too
big to describe, and you receive one
thrill after another. Part of the way
is blasted out of Marble. We saw
Buffalo Bills mountain hotel. Entered
Cody just after their stampede" and
she was sure wild. We saw the min
ing district of Montana, the grazing
lands Of Wyoming and also the oil
lands of John D. At Cheyenne we
hit the Lincoln Highway and sailed
through Nebraska and into Iowa on
high.
Iowa, as to soil and vegetation. re-
minds us of the willamette valley.
But say-tell those Weston mountain
farmers to ship some potatoes to
Iowa. Haven't eaten decent spud
since we came-but don't tell it SO
Newton will hear of it.
That was a pretty good joke on us,
'nly being here two days when a cy-
,lone hit our neighborhood. 1t did
is worst about four miles from here,
Newton itself escaped. We were all
unconscious Of what was going on,
and sat on our porch enjoying the
;hunder and rain. The damage was +
surely awful. One place it picked
Up beautiful big house, and moved
t off its foundation. Every building
IN the place was made kindling.
Nothing left of the hen houses but
he nests, and there they stood with
hen on every nest. The buildings
AN be replaced but not the beauti-
'ul walnut and oak groves, some trees
,eing snapped right off, and others
pulled out by the roots.
We have not suffered from the heat
lere. We actually wore our over
oats thro' the desert in Wyoming
md Nebraska"

Disabled Soldiers

For the purpose Of securing en-
ployment for disabled war veterans
who have been rehabilitated vocation
ally, campaign will be conducted
throughout the northwest August 21
to 26 by the U. S. Veterans Bureau,
according to A. E. McCabe, district
head Of the newy organized employ
ment section of the bureau. More
than 900 veterans of Washington,
Oregon and Idaho have completed
their training courses and several
hundred more are scheduled to finish
their vocational work within the next
two or three months, he stated.
"These fellows who could not car
ry on their pre-war vocations because
Of war injuries surely deserve con-
sideration in the matter of employ
ment," said Mr.. McCabe. "They have
struggled for months and in many
cases years to master a new occupa-
ton. However, we are not asking en-
ployers to hire these veterans for
sentimental reason but rather because
they are now capable office workers,
tradesmen or industrial workers. The
Veterans Bureau voucres that the re-
habilitated service man will hold
down the pob he is recommended for
Employers are urged to get in touch
with one of the branch offices Of the
Veterans Bureau located in Seattle,
Portland, Spokane, Tacoma, Boise and
Pocatello during Veterans Employ
ment Week."

TOMATO PRICES DOWN

Tomato prices dropped this week
to basis where the housewife
spent portion of her time in cam

was ready to market, it was brought
into competition with the production
