Oct. 12 Tho th recent rains slightly affected the cotton crop in this state, it is estimated by experts that the output will exceed what was expected. In Mexico pickers are in great demand at prices ranging from 65 cents to $1 per 1 00 pounds. In the Heme section the gins are kept very busy, though a good deal of trouble is caused by the win' of pickers. In Kie'een the yield will be alone the average though pickers are scarce. In Oak wood the crop is double what it was exDected to be. and mer chants doing brisk business. In Waller, cotton is coming in rapidly and the town is brisk with farmers in laying the r win ter supp'y. All the railway systems in Texas are sufferering from car famine, and the worst feature of the shortage is the fact tht the business has not jet reached its height. HALMS NOT GUILTY (Baker City Democrat.) Shortly after noon yesterday introduc tion of testimony by the State in the case of Will Hall, charged with larceny by stealing . mares, . was . closed and the State rested its case. Attorneys Hart and Nichols for the defense, without intro ducing the testimony at once moved the court for the direction of the verdict of acquittal on the grounds that there was not evidence sufficient to go to the jury. After lengthy arguments by counsels on both sides, the sourt allowed the motion and instructed the jury accordingly which without leaving the box returned a ver dict of acquittal and the defendant was released. Hall was charged with aiding Hindman Meldrum with stalling horses from Dor sett and Enstrong.

VINOL'S RELIABILITY Prominent Physicians join with Mr. New lin in Recommending Vinol. Countless physicians and druggists are now prescribing and indorsing Vinol as the most valuable cod liver oi' prepara tion Known to medicine, and it is fast su perceding all other forms of cod liver ci and emulsions. a prominent physician writes: "I am satisfied that Vinol derives its wonderful lite-giving and strength-creating power from the medicinal curative elements found in the cod's liver. It is the best strength creator and vitaiizer for old people, weak women, children and the convalescent that I ever saw." Another physician writes: "I could cite many cases where health has been re stored in a surprisingly short time by Vinol. I should be very sorry to have to do without Vinol in my practice. It has no equal for hard colds, threat and bron chial troubles." Now, when we tell you that we have never sold in our store a remedy of more remarkable curative and sfength-creat ing power than Vinoi, fcr tne weak, the sick and the aged, and tnat, if it fails to accomplish what we say it w ll, we will refund your money w tnout question, it shows you our faith in tne preparation Try Vinol on our guarantee, Newlin Druo Company. Note While we are scie agents for Vinol in La Grande, it is now for sals at the leading drug store in nearly every town and city in the country. Look for the Vinol agency in your t:wn.
