Incidentally it may be remarked here that among attor neys and others familiar with his work, Mr. Phelps is regaided as a 3' very capable district attorney. In is hoped that by this means of agitation and education that every aore of land in the farming pections will be in crops every year This work will be along the same line as that performed by the late Col.

ON A TOUR OF INSPECTION Railroad Commiksloner Altchlson Visits Heppner. the past four years he has had good success and he has always been a fair official. Thus far no opponent, from either party, has appeared for Mr. Phelps and seemingly he will be allowed to make the race alone, both for the republican nomination and for the office he now holds. City Council ever undertaken by a northern railroad has been inaugurated by R. B. Miller, eneVal freight agent for the Oregon Railroad & Navigation company. This s a campaign against the practice of summer fallowing, now general through out the inland empire. Under this sys tem half of the wheat fields of the inter ior lie idle each year.

Aitchison, of the Rail road Commission of Oregon, wes in the city yesterday. While Mr. Aitchison is making a general tour of inspection, the main object of his visit was to in vestigate tbe real conditions of a failure to agree between the people of Lexington and the O. R. & N. company over the right of way re quired in connection with the buil ding of a new warehouse. Last fall it was necessary to pile a large amount of wheat out on the ground at Lexington owing to inadequate warehouse fcilities. Owing to the fact thai the wheat acreage is being increased yearly, the people of Lexington have de cided to build a new warehouse to take care of the large amount of wheat, but it seems that the people there and the railroad company are unable to agree on the right of way for building grounds. Mr. Aijchison came to personally investigate the warehouse proposi tion in order to give both sides a fair hearing. The people of Lexington, also want an agent at their depot and are endeavoring to induce the rail road people to put ou a man at that place. If an agent is not fur nished this matter will also be taken before the railroad commission. Andrew Neil is in the city frora Lone Rock. Israel Dunnngn came up from Lexington yesterday.
