HURRAH FOR
SENATOR FULTON
A Washington dispatch to tbe New
York Times says:
There was an amusing piece of com
edy just as tbe senate oloeed its night
session at midnight yesterday. The
senators were in a drowsy condition
when Senator Heyburn offered an
amendment to the Indian appropria
tion bill for an appropriation of f 27,
000 for new school buildiogs at the
Lembi reservation in bia state.
Senator Stewart, chairman of tbe
Indian committee, and in obarge of
tbe bill, grew very red in tbe face and
waved bis bands impatiently aa he
shouted, "Accepted." That would
bave settled tbe matter, and tbe item
would have gone through safely, but
Senator Heyburn insisted on bia right
to make a speech. 'I appreciate tbe
courtesy of tbe chairman," said Mr
Heyburn, "in acoepting tbe amend

la C B wade, tbe ex-cashier of the
First National bank, a mental and
physical wreck?
Is O IS Wade's condition of such a
character as not to permit the ordeal
of a trial in the criminal court?
Are his mental derangement and
physical collapse temporary or wilt
tbey remain permanent?
Are sentiment and sympathy of in
fluential friends to be considered as
factors iii one of tbe most important
oases ever brought into the oriminal
courts of Umatilla county?
These are a few of the many ques
tions that have been brought to the
notice of tbe officers of laff in tbe
case of C B Wade, against whom
oharges of a criminal nature are pend
ing. District Attorney O W Phelps
and other officers were willing and
ready to proceed with the case and to
give tbe ex -cashier a fair trial, but
many new phases bave now appeared
which will probably have the effect of
staying trial procedure for months
to come, perhaps years, perhaps for
all time. Creditors who lost various
and large earns of money through the
manipulations of Wade bave petition
ed the court todismias the case on tbe
ground that "any trial in tbe orimi
nal court of a man in bia condition
would be a travesty upon justice,"
while four physicians, ail claiming to
be disinterested persons, who made
individual examinations of Wade,
agree tuat toe man is mentally end
Lphysically unfit to stand trial and re
commend that a trial be stayed at
least for tbe present. Pendleton Tri

A suppressed groan ran through tbe
chamber. President Frye waa quick
to aeise tne chance for a joke, and
submitted the amendment to a vote.
Tbe senate rejected it. Tbe laugh
that went with the vote was load and
long. Mr Heyburn resented the treat
ment, and with a ssreastio comment
disappeared into the cloak room .
Five minutes later Senator Fulton
of Oregon offered an amendment call
ing lor $350,000 for irrigation worka
in his state. "I understand aaid he
' 'that if I make a speech I don't get
