ROCK ISLAND SHOPS QUIET
Herington Has 400 Out But Every
body Is Very Peaceful

UOOy - V0y tESaSSsU
The 400 shop men of the Rock
Island who are cut at Herington are
not making trouble. Reports from
there to Sheriff Sherman say things
are quiet. He has plenty of depu-
ties to care for any outbreak that
may take place. The president of
the road today issued this notice to
the men and to the public:
1.-THE Rock Island has no con-
tracts of any kind lor character for
the operation Of its shops or other
like facilities, or for the performance
by employees in the mechanical de-
partment. Therefore strike at this
time will be solely against the decis-
ions of the United States labor
board fixing working conditions and
pay in accordance with the require
ments of the federal alw. Such a
strike will be aimed at the govern
ment and the public which the gov
ernment represents. Reductions in
Rock Island revenue during 1922 at
the hands of government authority
will be more than three times the
wage reductions ON the Rock Island
directed by the United States rail-
road labor board. Let me ask you
to consider this matter carefully and
seriously before action is taken that
will certainly cause injury to the
public, to the railroad and to the
employees themselves"

Five hundred acres Of seed pota-
toes grown in the mountain districts
tributary to Weston, passed the first
official field inspection conducted by
E. R. Jackman, farm crops special
ist from o. A. c., and Fred Bennion,
county agent.
If they pass the second field in
spection and the final bin inspection
these lordly spuds will be entitled to
the label, "Oregon Certified Seed Po-
tatoes," and as such will command
high prices among potato growers.
So enthusiastic are Umatilla coun-
ty growers regarding potato de yel-
opment that they are planning to
hold potato show this coming Oc-
tober at Weston. At that time GER
Ftifed potatoes will be shown.
Nineteen fields, representing about
300 acres, were rejected by the in
spectors, who demand that in the
first inspection the field must not
show more than five percent Of the
tubers to be suffering from one dis
ease or ten percent suffering from a
combination Of diseases. Mr.. Jack
man declared the fields to be show
ing much improvement over last
year.

passed the inspection are the follow
ing:

face of terrific machine gun fire and
captured by Italian Fascist. Five OF
six thousand Fascist, including re-

With seven Italian cities in the grip
of the Fascist who have forced resig

Recounting Votes
Exposes Frauds

Fraud reared its head for the first
time in the recount Of votes for the
republican nominees for governor
when checkers discovered in pre-
cinct POI yesterday that official
tally sheets did not record 18 votes
cast for Ben W. Olcott and credited
Charles Hall with 16 more votes
than could be found in the ballot
box, says the Oregonian.
Demand for an immediate inves-
tigation into the irregularity was
made by John A. Collier, attorney
for Hall, at }rse instance the re-
count is being he'll. Stanley Myers,
district attorney, announced that
the case would be put before the
Multnomah county grand pury with
out delay.
The attorneys who checked over
the tally sheets said they appeared
regular and that the omissions and
additions probably had been made
in calling off the votes.
Members of the counting board
of this precinct may be summoned
before the grand jury today, said
the district attorney.
IF there is any assistance which,
| can give the authorities in their
investigation of this apparent fraud,
they have but to call on me-" COM
mented Hall last night. at is out
rageous that such thing can oc-
cur in a modern community. The
sanctity of the ballot box must be
preserved.
"In initiating this contest I had
every confidence in the integrity Of
election officials but believed that
honest mistakes and votes cast il
legally, many unintentionally, might
change the announced result if dis
covered. l would not accept the
nomination if it was obtained by
improper methods or fraud"
The Hall forces announced yester-
day a decision which was said to
have been reached Monday night to
proceed no further with the recount
after the check of ballots in Multi.
nomah county was completed.

Washington, d. CATER wrangling
four hours over the Gooding resolu.

Of the interest Of senators, newspapers
and others in the passing or defeat
of the pending tariff bill, 1t was post
poned indefinitely.
Senator Caraway, democrat, Ar
kansas, who offered the original res
olution, proposing an investigation in
the tariff schedules, told the senate
that he realized the investigation was
dead"
Senator Gooding of Idaho, defending
his vote for the raw wool rate, said
he had hoped the resolution would
be adopted and added that he would
continue to defend the interests of
his state. He told the senate he
owned 5000 sheep, but that his con-
science was clear as to his vote
because the duty approved would not
equalize the difference in the cost of
production here and abroad.

sPUDs UNFIT FOR SEED

The potatoes in Union county are
not, generally speaking, fit for seed,
certification, according to E. R. Jack
man, extension specialist, who has
just examined 200 acres of potatoes
with the view of certifying them for
seed. Only one small field was passed
by Mr.. Jackman. Leaf mosaic was the
chief cause Of rejecting the crops for
seed. This disease has stunted the
growth of the potatoes and, the tops
have died down in some cases, the
crop being cut in half. Other causes
for rejection, included injury to the
crop by drouth.

MAY ASK CONGRESS
TO ACT ON STRIKE
Harding Requests Full Attend
ance in House Next
Tuesday.

Washington, D. C.--President Hard
ing was understood to have inform
ed Representative Mondell Of Wyom-
ing and other house leaders that in
view of the troubled Industrial situa-
tion it was desirable that there be
full attendance of members next Tues
day when the house reconvenes after
six weeks adjournment.
The president, 1t was learned from
house leaders, was said to feel that
the house should be prepared to en-
act such legislation as the industrial
situation, particularly the rail strike,
might make necessary. None Of the
leaders, so far as 1t could be learned,
had been informed as to whether the
president had any specific legislation
in mind, and II he had what was its
nature.
President Harding's second proposal
for immediate termination of the rail-
way shop crafts strike apparently has
failed.
The presidents proposal that the
shopmen return to. work, that the
railroad operators assign them to
work and that both sides submit the
issue Of seniority to the railroad labor
board, met with instant and de-
termined opposition on the part Of the
shopmen's leaders.
1t was answered promptly by the
issuance of a call for general con-
ference Of all the railroad labor or
ganizations, to be held In Washing
ton on Friday, for the purpose Of
adopting measures to make the shop
mems strike more effective.

LANGDON PLANS BIG LAKE
IN THE TOLL GATE VALLEY

Formation of a. 65-acre lake in the
beautiful Toll Gate valley of the
Blue mountains, with fine hotel on
its banks and hundreds of sites for
cottages, thus supplying this entire
inter-mountain country with splen-
did summer resort, is contemplated
by T. c. Bellows, manager of the Toll
Gate and the small hotel now located
there, in conjunction with Walla Wal
la and Pendleton capitalists.
X John w. Langdon Of Walla Walla,
fahaed for his ability as a landscape
artist, is now at the Toll Gate, again
going over the propositionS much Of
which was conceived byNhim in pre-
vious conferences there. He was in
Pendleton Friday and is said to have
conferred with Oregon men on the
subject.
1t is said that the lake can be
built for comparatively small sum,
probably only few thousand dollars.
A good hotel would follow, and then
summer homes would quickly spring
UP, There is good grouse hunting
near by and plenty of huckleberries.
The lake could be. built by damming
the Looking Glass river fork that
flows through the mountain valley.
The whole plan is said to depend
upon the construction of the pro
posed Weston-Elgin road,
