Walla Walla, Nov. 5. With a cold rain falling most of the day tho gen eral election pnsssed quietly yester day, and the vote of the county was materially reduced by tho storm and muddy roads occasioned by recent rains. Tho morning dawned chilly nnd heavy cIoiuIb hung low. Shortly after sunrlso a rain began falling and It continued most of tho day. Intermittently. The campaign has been one of lit tle personal interest upon the part of the mnsaes, nnd the election prov ed but another day of similar apathy. The vote of the county was consider ably below the figure expected by politicians recently, but It shows up woll In most of tho country precincts. The flght was on the legislative tick et, principally, and along toward eve ning considerable sentiment wns aroused on the position of county auditor. Had the day been bright and warm gonoral conditions would have greatly changed, and It Is said by re publicans that the voto of the party would have been largely augmented. Counting proceeded slowly last night, the ticket being a difficult one to tally. In places It required threo minutes for the clerks to tally up one bnlllot. In the larger precincts tho work required most of the night. The successful ticket follows: Representatives In Congress Fran ces W. Cnshman, Wesley L. Jones and Wllllom E. Humphrey.

Yesterday it was quoted at 59 cents and today there was no change. Eastern markets are slight ly off and local demand has declined, which causes the change. For two weeks wheat remained at 60 cents, and several took advantage of the price, while many others did not. Those who sold at this figure are row congratulating themselves on their good luck, while those who held for a possible fow cents more, are feeling somewhat dejected. However, many still believe wheat will go above 60 cents, although it is below that now, and tendencies somewhat weaker than for several days past. Good Roads and Wide Tires. Wide tires are road makers; nar row tires are road destroyers. This is a thought worthy the con sideration of road supervisors in Ba ker county, whero the construction of mountain roads is difficult at tho best and their maintenance a problem hard to solve.

Basel Bushman Held to the United States Grand Jury. Rasel Bushman was before United States Commissioner Halley this afternoon on the charge of stealing a horse from the pasture of an Indian on the Umatilla reserve. Bushman 1b a half-breed, and It is claimed that he went to the pasture of the Indian owner of tho animal a few days ago and taking it from the field, sold It. Complaint was made and United States Deputy Jacob Proebstel came up from Portland and made the arrest. The crime was com mitted on the reserve and from1 one of Uncle Sam's wards, which makea it a United States case. Bushman's de fense was that the animal was given to him, but the ovldenco was such that he was bound over and sent to Portland to await the action of the grand Jury. INDIANS CAN 8ELL LANDS. Umatilla Lands Were Alotted In 1893 For a Period of 25 Years. A mistaken idea seems to have gained foothold and Is being publish ed in many papers to tho effect that a ruling has been handed down by tho secretary of the Interior that no land sales should be approved In tho future by Indian agents which was inherited from Indian alloters. The facts in tho case are that notice was sent out to all the agents to approve no sales of this land until furnther notice, but the statement that this ruling was perpetual is Incorrect. Tho above, however, has little to do with the lands of the Umatilla re serve. When the Umatilla lands wore alotted in 1893 the department made it Impossible for the Indians to dis pose of their allotments for a period of 25 years. The rul lng of the department Is for other agencies which have been al lotted long enough that the land has reverted to the Indian owners and they have a right to sell. It Is claimed that they can be induced to dispose of their lands for a smalV consideration and In this way some are defrauded out of their holdings. Tho order for agents o nthe reserve not to approve sales Is to protect the Indians nnd keep them from disposing of valuable lands. New Road for Eastern Oregon, Tho new Oregon & Idaho Central railway Is now a certainty, the road having already been laid out. The road will open up a great mining country and will bo 110 miles In length.

Remarkable Story of Rev. Johnson, of Indiana. Rev. ElHah II. Johnson, a well known clergyman of the Methodist Episcopal faith, paRsed away Satur- day at his homo near Muiuorry, inu., says the La Porte (Ind.) Argus. Mr. Johnson was 72 years old. Ho had the distinction of having died twice, according to the opinions of noted physicians. Ills first supposed demise was In June. 1869, while ho was the paBtor of tho Oakland Hill Mission cliurcn. now Congress Street Methodist church, In Lafayette, Ind. Ho worked bo hard In building up his eongrega tlou and erecting a new house of worship that he was overcome by nervous prostration and nfter a week's Illness apparently died. Dr. Klcfer, then one of tho state's physicians, pronounced him dead, and this opin ion wns concurred in by other doc tors. Mr. Johnson always had been op posed to "embalming, and his bod wns not embalmed. To this fact he owed 33 years more of actlvo life, The body lay threo days while ar rangements for the funeral were be lng made. Rev. I. W. Joyce, had charge of the funeral service. The services had proceeded to the conclusion of the scripture lesson and the preacher had Just uttered the name of Mr. Johnson, preparatory ,to pronouncing a eulogy, when a sudden gust of wind blew a door shut and the supposed dead man sat up In the. coflln. Two weeks later Mr. Joyco accom panted Mr. Johnson to his church and from the pulpit said: "Here In this pulpit with me Is a man that has como back to us from the gates of death. Many attempts have been made to get a statement as to his sensations during his cataleptic state. His in variable reply was: "What I saw then I nevor shall toll to mortal man."
