Big Sums Change
Hands for Cattle
Xerer ia tlie history of Crook coun
ty, for a given length 01 time, lias
no much money changed hands for
livestock n within the pnut month.
The-Kum is greater than the total
amount of last year. W hat has been
the cause? Will, various reasons
are given. Some want to retire from
the business, others are short of hay
and still others who lielieve that It
will not pay to teed $10 or 12 hay
to stock. J ust bow much this selling
movement will affect the future of
the cattle industry In Crook county
U hard to say.
Ed Willard, a Portland buyer, has
leen Investing heavily in Crook
countr livestock. He has three
bunches of cattle now on the road
to Sbauiko and about 300 head of
Iteef stuff feeding In the neighbor
hood of rriueville. He bought 1300
nt the head of the south fork of
Crooked river. Camw creek and
Hampton buttes.
Among those who have made sales
are: Sanders Logan, 200 cows and
calves; Hackerman & Pfeffer, Gil
Christ Bros., cows; George Wiley,
cows aud steers; B.Bennett, cows;
"X. Bennett, cows; Columbus John
son, 130 cows and steers; Itandolph
Gibson Ed Lnughlinof Swampcreek,
Jim Beckley and others.
Among the buyers, besides Mr.
Willard, might be mentioned Henry
Cram, Oliver Towell, Ed Slayton,
Willis Brown and Itoe Grimes, C.
. Sam Smith. All of the foregoing are
buying feeders, with the exception of
Mr. Willard, who will ship some and
leed others.
We are credibly informed that 3000
head of cattle have been bought in
Crook county daring the past thirty
days at prices ranging from f27 for
cows to 1 10 for steers. A good many
head were bought under contract to
be delivered next spring, so that an
approximation of the number could
only be obtained. It Is thought that
Crook county growers are richer to
the tune of $100,000 at the very least
Ellis cxi erleneed nil the Rcnxntlon
of a daring hold-up without lotdng
hlx wealth. Five highwaymen made
the attempt and nearly blew tlieex.
prees car to piece w ith dynamite In
their efforts to get Into the strong
box. Mr. Ellis relates-the thrilling
Incident as follows:
"It It hadn't beeu' for the porter, I
lielieve the robliem would have gone
through the Pullman sleepers and
the other coaches , sain air. r.nis.
"We were blissfully Ignoraut of any
trouble until the first charge of dyna
mite was set off.
"It wasn't any tiiueat all after the
first blast that the porter started
through the cars turning out all the
lights. 'We are held up," he said.
Climb Into your berths and hide
vour valuables. Don't get sen red,
but keep Inside. Theu he went from
one end of the train to the other and
turned out every light. On the hind
end he found the sigual lanterns
turned off. und lighted the red lant
ern. It probably saved us from a
collision from the rear, tor another
train came along in a little while
and stopiied on seeing the danger
glsrnnl.
"I Ulieve all the other porters
and conductorn on the train climbed
Into their bunks und stayed then',
after hearing the first shot. But
with all the lights turned off it is a
cinch none of t lie robliers cared to
take the chance of coming into a
dark couch and trying to hold us up.
Hut they probably would have come
if the lights had beeu left on."
Mr Ellis said the scheme was a
most during one, ami was well
planued, though the robbers could
not curry It through.

Equulixation for Crook county will

to call and look over their assessments.
Frank E. Uodiuan aud Mrs. Hatel
Maddux were accused by the grand
jury of killing Mrs. May Ileal lii the
early mornlug of August 5, In the
mysterious automobile accident on
the Llnnton road. Just ontslde the
city limits. The Investigating body
framed It accusation Into a charge
of manslaughter which was set forth
in an Indictment, a true bill for
which was preseuted to Presiding
Judge Bronaugh, of the Circuit
court on Monday, says the Oa
gonian. Failure to exercise the proper
caution In the operation of an auto
mobile, thereby rendering them

Mrs. Kent, Is the ground ou w hich
the indictment agalust K oilman aud
Mrs. Maddux Is drawn. Both the
accused will be arraigned before
Judge Bennett In the Municipal
court for their preliminary hearing.
Their conviction under the charge Is
a question Involving considerable
doubt The fatality having occurred
outside thecltv limits, theautoino-

Paulina, Ore., Sept. 14, 1D09.
Editor Crook County Journal:
Iear Sir I see lu your Issue of Sep
tember 9lh a request made by the
Pioneer Telephone & Telegraph Com
pany to tiie merchants of Prlnevllle
not to patronise the fanners' Inde
pendent telephone line, or rather uot
t runt totutdioiies from them.
Sow, I would like to ask the busi
ness men of PrlneTille, through the
colu runs of your valuable paper, who
has done, the most for them, the
farmer or the Pioneer Telephone
Company? The farmers and stin k
men of Crook county have spent
hundreds of dollars lu cash and
labor to construct telephone Hues so
that they might be contiecled with
the business men of Prlnevllle. It Is
to the advantage of both the farmer
and merchant to lie so connected.
After these lines have been completed
aud tlie independent companies are
maintaining a central of their own,
would It be riisht of yon, Mr. Mer
chant, to althdrnw your support
from the farmer? Could you exist If
the fanner would withdraw his sup.
port from you? There ure over LT0
milts of farmer Hues in the south
eastern portion of Crook county, us
well as many miles north of Prlne
vllle, terminating In an Independent
switch board that has a capacity
for 10) lines. It is open to nuy and
all farmer lines entering Prinevllttt.
Vow, I appeal once more to t he
buslniuH men of Prlnevllle. Who
will do the most for you, the farmer
and stockmen on the Pioneer Tele
phone & Telegraph Company?
