plement of wlu but. he did under
stand that dancing meant dancing and
with bullets hitting the dust about
him, kept up the po'w wow for some
l ttle time, the story goes. When he
had tired th eyes of the fun seeking
i anther of Wallowa county,, he was
ordered to dance higher and with, the
ommand, the bullets commenced to
range higher. One, not perhaps in
tended to st rike human flesh, tore
.trough the fleshy part of the thigh
And then the shooting stopped. Jac
obs was carefully nursed, at the ex
pense of thi county, but the poison
that followed could not be stopped,
When he was brought to the city yes
terday by D. Anderson, as announc
ed in the Evening Observer ' yester

that might save his. life but it did not

Reviews Work of the Past Tear In
Umatilla County.
In the neighborhood or- $60,000 has
been, saved to ' farmers of "Umatilla
county during' the past year, accord
ing to the annual report of C. & Con
nor, the retiring president of the lo
cal branch of the Farmers' Education
al and Co-operative . Union of, Amer
ica, according to the Eaa"OregonIan.
Ey the efforts of this organization.
Every farmer In the county shared In
$40,000 of this j sum regardless of
whether or not he was a member, for
the saving of this amount was secur
ed by the reduction of storage charges
throughout the northwest for which
the Farmers' union was largely re
sponsible. The remaining $20,000 was
saved to the members of the organiza
tion only, resulting from, the co-operative
business plan which la ren
dered practicable by the combining
of the farmer. V ;. . . ' :' .
As Illustrations of the business ca
pacity of the union, Mr. Connor points
out that 600,000 grain bags were pur
chased at a reduction over the price
of the year before of $7 per thou
sand and that 7500 pounds of binder
twine was purchased at 'a saving vOf
2 1-2 cents per pound.
He points out further that through
the farmers' . agencies at least one 1
half million bushels of grain "were
sold at an average saving of three
cents per bushel. In addition he Il
lustrates by citing the fact that large
quantities of wood, coal, posts, lum
ber and dried fruits have been pur
chased at large reductions.
Mr. Connor then goes on to show
the educational value of , the union.
He states that during his Incubency
in office ne has appointed more than
twenty committees to Investigate sub
jects of interest to the union. He
shows that there are now four far
mers' union warehouses being oper
ated in the county and declares that,
four more will , be incorporated be
fore spring. .
Altogether, says the retiring head
of the union, the past year has been
a most prosperous one both financi
ally and fraternally. The membership
nas aouoiea ana great enthusiasm Is
telng manifested, and, in his opin
ion, he. says, that the fact has been
demonstrated that the success of the
American farmer lies in his own
tands. : ' ... ' .'. -.;;.,--
