Journal readers should have a few details from an eye witness to the big show. It Is going to be a blow-out that will equal the one at New York recently. Bootleggers and moonshiners from all over the state seem to be hand ling their wares in this nelghbor- hood. Try-outs for buckers have been held this week, but have stooned for the latter part of this week be cause of the Frontier Days attraction at Walls Walla, which has attracted most of the riders. Yakima Canutt, the champion of the past two years, will be on hand to win another sil ver-mounted saddle. Te Smith has been riding 'em straight up, but the other day something was wrong and he was thrown three times. One young looking fellow blew in to town all dolled up In buckaroo clothes. Say but he was a sight. Boots, spurs, chaps, loud shirt, and a big hat with boms on It. He went-out to show the boys how to ride and lasted Just two split seconds on old No-name, toe left town pret ty pronto. Another young fellow made twelve silver bucks by staying for that many bucks on a twisty one bareback.' There are a lot of horses to be tried out and thev're a vicious lot Ibedamn Is the nam. nf one large bucker-off. There will be the usual number nf Indians out.

Pender at one time was sentenced to be executed, but his punishment later was commuted to Ufa Imprison ment by Governor West Before leaving thVprlson both men expressed appreciation for the kind treatment accorded them by the pen ltentlary officials and said they would go out Into the world with the one aim of making good.

The trial I was dramatic to the extreme. Hart has not yet shown any siens of wk.l enlng. I figure that he Is a savage , through and through, a step-back to ! the kind that slew families on thi ' frontier. He had a rrude anin.t the Sheriff and at the first opportun- j ity he settled It and his execution; will be met with Indian ntnlrl., t Plans are being made to have Tay-; ior s sorrel norse lead the parade on the last day with an emntv l,iin The memorial fund for the murdered snerilT has grown to about 113,000. ' I inspected thorouehlv tha ).!. hospital for the insane here. It is a fine institution, nothing finer in the country. It Is built of the beat ma terials and has wise provisions for expansions. Some five hundred un fortunates are cared for there, and the care received Is humane and kind, even in the case of the most violent. The old idea was to use physical violence on the insane but! that has become a thing of the n.i In most states. i Tiiot Rock interested me th nth. ; er day. I found the citi ZPF1S thn-.i of the right sort. The town is a! small one but there is nothing Bmall aoout the general spirit of the com munity. It is situated in a nice farming country and is tributr- stock ranges. Most of the harvest-' ing in this section has been com pleted. Another heavy shower cast more gloom on the tardy harvester today. i When I first came to Pendleton I thought there was a big parade In town, but I discovered that it was the system used for narklno- ; All of the cars must be parked ia the middle of the street. The plan seems to be working well. Hound Up decorations give the town a rar-; ing-to-go air, and their will be no hesitancy about that. I Isn't there a song about rhb enne? Yakima, Wash. Following a meet ing here of representatives of north west districts to consider the 33 H per cent increase in freight rules on fruit, telegrams were sent by the North Pa cific Fruit league to James 0.

Calkins, vice-presidents re spectively of the Northern Pacific, Union Pacific, Crest Northern and Chicago.- Milwaukee A St Paul roads, asking for a conference In Yakima on Monday, September 27, over a rate readjustment. The telegrams declared "some con cession absolutely necessary to pre vent serious loss both to Industry and carriers" and that "lack of orders, combined with large eastern yield and added costs, strongly Indicate Inabil ity to market northwest crop of 28.000 cars (of apples) with any profit to growers." LIVESTOCK MEN ASK AID Appeal Mads to Government to Pre serve Industry. Chicago. More than 100 bankers, packers and grain men, meeting to discuss the livestock situation through out the country, appealed to the gov ernment for aid to preserve the live stock industry. Resolutions were passed appealing to the Interstate commerce commis sion to order grain placed on the preferred traffic list at once, appeal Ing to financial Institutions to encour age stock raising industries and urg ing the treasury department to deposit funds In the reserve banks In live stock areas to be given out In loans to producers.

Because a type written letter discussing radicalism and attacking labor leaders was cir culated in the last few days among superior court jurors trying William Cunningham, charged with criminal syndicalism, Judge Jurey, on motion of the stute, declared the case a mis trial and discharged the Jury. The Cunningham case was about to go to the Jury after a week's trial. The letter that ended the trial was type written, mim-rtrrephed nnd signed with typed signature, "Sherman Rog ers, chairman of committee." Hearing of the matter, Sherman Rogers. In dustrial editor of the Outlook, who Is in Seattle gathering material for his magazine, called on Prosecuting At torney Brown.
