Wool in th is county has begun to move in earn est. R. C. Mays, who is buying for S. Koshland & Co., of San Francisco, last night closed contracts with sheepmeo of this place for 1.000,000 pounds of wool. As a result, the sheepmen, as we:l as other business men here, are in a happy mood today, rejoicing in the fact that they have a "cinch" on 1G cents per pound for their 1905 wool clip. Regardless of the fact that there are two other buyers :n the fii-11. Mr. Miys is getting all tho wo. 1, neither of the other buyers having be-n able to a.'cnre a pound so far. On the sales made last night, Mays turned over to the sheepmen in this vicinity $53,000, this being rne-third'( f . the contract price of the wool. This amount will relieve the 6heepraeu to a great extent, as money is always scarce with them at this time of year, and they are compelled to borrow at a high rate of interest. By tomorrow Mr. Mays ex pects to have the entire clip ot this county contracted for, which will amount to about 2,000.000 pounds Astoria, Or., Dec. 10. Fish Wavde Van Dnsen announced this monin that about 4,000,000 Cbino-iJe ealmo woaH be "retained" at the Ontaiio hatchery this seaon for expen'meuta purples. it nas m'fti i-wi.r.-. 'retention" of young iish had a tend ency to etunt their growth, but the Fish Warden believes proper feeding and care will overcome this r ejection Littl" fish will be held four o- five weeks after the time other salmon are turned out. Fish are now given their liberty when bout two irches in length, but those to be retaired will be three inches long when tuned ou ard much better able to protect themselves. For the purpose of deteimining jiiht what percentage of fish thus "retained" will return to 'the liver, experts will mark a portion of the 4,000.000 and four years hence results will be definitely ascertained. Heretofore packers ana fishermen have reported all marked fish caught and this season's innovation will, the Fish Warden believes, prove successful. School Teacher Loses Case. will Ask For New County. Hood River, Or., Dec. 18. At the coming session of the Legislature the peop'e of Antelope will renew their ef forts to have a new county created out of Southeastern Wasco, with Antelope as the county-sea. This new division is to be known a Stockman county. Although in the two previous sessions The Dalles has ptontly opposed the move for Stockman connty. it ia under etood that the city is fledged this time to support the d emnno's of Antelope. There has been non e talk f Ho d River asking for a r-ew county at t 'is session of the Legislature The people here have long had the ambition to gov ern themselves in county affii-e, but the interested citizens realize that ith stnbborb opposition in the Senate from The Dalles, the requests of thi ci'y would receive little attention at this time, especially since the formation of Stockman county is considered certain. Representative Jayne, of this city at the request of the finance committee of the Hood River City Council, will pre sent a bill to the Legislature next month asking for'an amendment to the city charter, permitting the town to is sue bonds in exceFS of the 5 per cert limit now in force. This city finds it self short for funds and must resort to borrowing money to, defray expenses for the coming year. Salem, Or , Dec. 15 The State Board of Education todxy decided the contest between Miss Nnn Shivdy, of Astoria, and the Cottave Grove District, against Miss Shively, ho'cMng that no contract relations can exist between a teacher and a school district unless the contract be in writing. The decision is of wide importance for the reason that in many instances teahers begirt teach ing without cootractrt and awn.it tl e con venience of pchocl boards. Miai Shively had been elected to a position in the Cottage G'ove schools, bur no written contract was mad', be cause she d d not have her teticher's Certificate with her. After the had taiKbt several weeks tho Board dif mised her without preferring charges or giving her a hearing. She appealed t the County Superintendent who re ve'sed the District Board. The case whs appealed to the State Bbard of Ed ucation and the County Superintendent is reversed and the District Board sub taine J. MADE DEAL ON DEATH BED. Strancr Transaction B(w(n Wil liam Roekefaller and the Late Ha reus Daly. A peculiar business transaction in which William Rockefeller and the Lite Marcus Dtily were concerned has just come to light. It seems that when the Montana copper kin? was lying- at the point of death he had on deposit in the National City bank uue account amountinir to $197 093 ana a special account of $1,300,518. A singular thing in connection with the special deposit of $1,300,518 m tne .National City bank is that it was opened onlv n. f w 1 ' ' ' A WtlUlC Mr. Daly's death in the form of a check of William Rockefeller for money which he owed to Mr. Dalv as a result of transactions in which both men were interested, but the nature of which is not disclosed, ay a New York report. It is understood that it was Mr. Daly's intention to use this money in the purchase of the Amalgamated Copper company, of which he owned at the time he died 67,300 shares. Claims amounting to $1,600,000 are pending against Mr. Daly's estate, rne enier of which is in an action brought by the United States against the estate to recover $1,365,000 for trespass on government lands and the conversion of timber removed from it. P. J. Shields also has a claim against the estate for $258,000. He claimed to have been a partner with Mr. Daly in a coal mine and some other enterprises. John II. Ma- loney and others have an action pending in the Montana courts to recover $50,000. Oom Paul iu Tomb. Pretoria, Transvaal, Dec. 16.
