CHANGE OF TROOPS
Seventh Infantry Headquarters

RETURNING BATTALION? STATIONS
Fourteenth for Fort Wayne, Eight
eenth for Fort Keoffh, and Twenty-third
for Fort Douglas.
VANCOUVER BARRACKS. Wash..
April 12. At last the future stations of
the home battalions of the three regi
ments returning- from Manila have been
officially announced, and tho order for the
changes was received here today from
'Washington. One battalion each of the
Fourteenth. Eighteenth and Twenty-third
Infantry, to be selected by tho Command
ing General, division of the Philippines,
and Eighth Army Corps, will be retired
from duty at their present stations and
returned to the United States, to take
station as follows: The battalion of the
Fourteenth Infantry, at Fort 'Wayne,
Mich.; the battalion of the Eighteenth, at
Fort Keogh, Mont.; the battalion of the
Twenty-third, at Fort Douglas, Utah.
These battalions will serve as depot bat
talions for their respective regiments, and
officers and enlisted men who are unfit for
duty with the active battalions, and en
listed men halng less than six months
to serve, and who do not Intend to re
enllst, will be transferred to the depot
battalions, and enlisted men having six
months or more to serve will be trans
ferred to the active battalions. In order.
If possible, to brine them up to the max
imum strength prior to tho departure oi
the depot battalions.
On the arrival of the battalion of the
Fourteenth Infantry, headquarters and
companies C. H and M. Seventh Infantry,
will be retired from further duty In the
Department of the Lakes and will proceed
to and take station at Vancouver Bar
racks. On the arrival of the Seventh at
Vancouver Barracks. Company B. Twenty-fourth
Infantry, will change station
from Vancoui er Barracks to Fort Wright.
"Wash.
The news of n new regiment coming
here created considerable surprise In the
post today, for the rumors that have been
In circulation since It was known that
troops wero returning from the Philip
pines have led the garrison to suppose
that one of the returning battalions would
come here: but by thli order three com
panies, headquarters and the band will be
tho beginning for the establishment of a
large garrison here again. Colonel Lloyd
"Wheaton, who served for a number of
years 4n thH department In the Second
Infantry, will be In command of the Sev
enth: and. beside the three staff officers,
there should be nine company officers with
tho battalion.
It will probably be about four weeks
before the Seventh will arrive here, for
the Fourteenth only sailed from Manila
April 1. but they will probably not delay
In San Francisco, so It will be the second
meek In May before they can arrive at
Fort Wayne.

Washlntrtoft Grain Bass.
Walla Walla Statesman.
On April 1 there were in the warehouse
at the state penitentiary 414.971 grain bags.
A careful estimate places the output of
the mill from April 1 to September 1 at
525,000 bags, making a total on that date
of 1.013,971 bags.
On April 1 applications had been filed. In
pursuance ot the new order, for 2.219.TO
grain bags, by 412 different persons, who
each paid 10 per cent of the purchase price,
35 90 a hundred, of 'the bags applied for.
Warden Catron estimates he will be able
to furnish only 43 per cent of the amount
of grain bags applied for. In other words
the farmer who applied for 1000 bags will
receive only 430. This means he must
buy 570 bags of the dealer to make up the
number he needs.

HINKLE AND WATSON.
Aftermath of the Recent Row In.
Umatilla Convention.
PENDLETON, Or., April 10. To the
Editor.) I have to say concerning the
charges made against me In the Demo
cratic County Convention by D. B. Wat
son, as reported in the Dally East Orego
nlon ot Monday, that I had first thought
to Ignore the matter as coming from an
unreliable source, and In no wise Indorsed
by the Democratic party.
But. in Justice to my friends, I am im
pelled now to say that those charges were
vile, malicious and absolutely false In
every particular, emanating from a dis
eased mind and Impure motives.
As secretary of the People's party cen
tral committee or otherwise, I was never
offered anything for my "political in
fluence" by any person or party, and I
certainly never offered that Influence my
self for sale at any price.
At about the same hour this fire-eating
Democratic orator was heaping his vile
abuse upon me in the Democratic conven
tion, I was making the effort of my life
In the Populist convention for the har
monious union ot the two parties, as must
be attested by every Populist delgate whi
afterwards went Into the Democratic con
vention. I am unable to construe the language of
Watson as otherwise than unfriendly and
insulting, and predict that his persistence
in disseminating such calumnies will re
act unfavorably upon the Democratic
county ticket, the success of which he Is
presumed to desire,
"Deliver us from our friends" is now
the watchword of the county Democracy
while this man Watson remains at large.
J. T. HINKLE.
Mr. Watson's Rejoinder.
'The letter of Mr. Hlnkle was shown to
Mr. Watson. The latter replied:
"I reiterate the charges entire. Just as
I made them, having nothing whatever to
retract. The charges have been made pub
licly by me. They need no repetition here.
Now. If they ore not true, let Mr. Hinkie
bring suit for libel, as he has grounds for
a libel suit If I said anything that was
untrue. I await Mr. Hlnkle's action In
the premises."

HOW TO GET RID OF "WEEVIL.
Raise Warehouses Above the Ground
and Pest Will Quit.
PENDLETON. Or.. April It The weevil.
which appears to have affected some of
the wheat stored In Portland, and wnicn
also has appeared in counties adjoining
Umatilla, has not been found at any point
In this county, although there ore stored
In warehouses here not lees than l.OM.COO
bushels of wheat. Will Moore, agent ot
the Pacific Coast Elevator Company, says
that the reason why weevil has not ap
peared In this county Is that the wheat is
all stored in warehouses which are raised
considerably from the ground, and that
It will never appear in any warehouse
built In that manner. He says that It
has been his experience mat the pest may
be eliminated from any warehouse by
raising the building from the ground and
setting It on posts. Scarcely a bushel
of wheat In this county is stored In any
private warehouse, and all of the com
panies' warehouses aro built In the man
ner indicated by Mr. Moore.
County Treasurer Kern has transmitted
to State Treasurer Moore $12,000 of lh.3

BATTLEGROUND NOT IN OREGON.
Now Will Oregon Society Erect the
Monument Projected!
PENDLETON, Or., April It Sherff
Blakley has returned from Walla Walla,
and reports that a temporary monument
has been located close to the historic cabin
of La Rocquc, In the state of Washing
ton three miles beyond the state line, the
object being to commemorato the battle
fought In 1S55 by Colonel Kelly and the
volunteers against Peu-Fcu-Mox-Mox and
his Indians The party that located the
temporary monument consisted of Mrs.
Levi Ankeny, Mr. Blakley Lew McMorris
and James McAullff. The Oregon Histor
ical Society, at tho requcet ot which tho
party made the trip to the La Rocquo
cabin, when It was organized, proposed to
operate only in Oregon, and it is not
known whether or not It will proceed to
erect a monument across the line in Wash
ington. Sheep in Fine Condition.
Stock Inspector Charles Myers, of this
county, makes a partial report on the
condition ot the sheep, the substance ot
which is that the bands in this county aro
in better condition than they have ecr
been known before. Although he has not
completed his Inspection yet, he has trav
eled quite extensively throughout the
county, and has found only one band of
sheep affected with scab. He expects two
more bands, which ran on the same range
with that affected, to develop scab later,
and knows of no other bands in which
the disease is or will be present. Mr.
Myers says that the Increase of lambs
th Spring Is 108 to 110 per cent, and the
lambs are in fine, healthy condition. The
ewes are so rolling fat that the lambing
proceeds with some difficulty on that account.
NO MISSING HILLS OF HOPS.
But. There Will "Be Many MUslnsr
Fields, Through Plowing- Up.
SALEM. Or.. April It "No missing hills
this year." is the general report of the
condition of the 1900 hop crop. The offi
cers of the Hopgrowers' Association re
ceive letters from all parts of the Valley
conveying information regarding hop in
terests. The letters, almost without ex
ception, have a very encouraging tone
so far as the growing crop is concerned.
There Is some complaint of uneven
growth, but as such reports are greatly
in the minority, it Is believed that the
lack of uniformity Is due to the planting
of different kinds of hops.
Squire Farrar, a dealer who keeps in
touch with hop conditions, says that he
can hear of no complaints as to uneven
ness. On the contrary, he hears It re
marked that the hop vines appear much
better than usual in this respect. Mr.
Farrar says that weather conditions have
been very ravorable. and that the vines
have made a good, healthy growth. The
vines in this vicinity are two to three
feet tall, and growers are beginning to
put In twine for the vines to cling to.
Mr. Farrar is of the opinion that more
hopyards are being plowed up than are
reported, and that many more will be
plowed up beroro the sowing season Is
over. Unless there should be a rise in
tho price of hops, growers will continue to
be discouraged and will sow their yards
to hay or wheat. In the plowing up of
yards and the reductlonof the acreage of
hops produced, is the only solution Mr.
Farrar can seo for the question of over
production and the consequent low price.
There are a few yards Just coming into
bearing, but. according to estimates ot
growers, these will not equal the acreage
plowed up, and there should be a decrease
in the production this season.

Sheriff Durbln has received the tax on
but SI bicycles thus far this season. With

A WOMAN'S LONG SLEEP
APPARENTLY NATURAL SLUMBER,
BUT SHE "WILL ROT ROUSE.
It Is Not Paralysis, an the Case Baf
fles the Physicians Few Mo
ments of Consciousness.
BAKER CITY, Or., April IV About 10
days ago, Mrs. D. Nichols, wife of a prom
inent farmer and stockralser of Bridge
port, abcut 30 miles from here. In this
county, while reading aloud to her hus
band, and apparently in good health, sud
denly complained of headache. She put
down the paper she was reading, went to
an adjoining bedroom, and lay down on
the bed. Mr. Nichols shortly after went
out of the house to attend some chores.
On his return an hour or so later, he
found his wife in sound sleep. He en
deavored to awaken here, but to no pur
pose. He became alarmed, and called In
several neighbors, and they tried to arouse
the woman, but their efforts were futile.
All night she slept and early next morn
ing a messenger was sent to this city for
a physician, who arrived there the next
day. He found the woman atlll asleep and
all efforts to arouso her were of no avail.
She was sensitive to touch and showed
no evidence of paralysis. Electricity was
applied and for the moment she would
revive and then relapse aa-ain into slum
ber. This condition continued during the
day ot the physician's visit and on the
following morning Mrs. Nichols was
brought to this city and placed in the
hospital. All resourscs known to medi
cal skill are being applied by the doctors,
but no results are as yet apparent.
Mrs. Nichols has taken but little nourish
ment thus far and suffers no pain, her
sleep being calm and natural. Within
the past two days she has been conscious
at times for a brief period, but ran neither
talk nor see, the nerves governing those
functions appearing to be paralyzed. The
attending physicians speak of the case
as being tho strangest ever experienced In
their practice, and they are at a loss to
diagnose It,

Canght Yakima Apricots.
NORTH TAKIMA. April 12. It Is the
opinion of leading fruitgrowers of this
valley that the cold snap of last week did
no great damage to the fruit crop, ex
cepting the apricots. These are practical
ly all dead. Trees of all kinds were load
ed with blossoms as never before. The
frost has destroyed many of them, but
In most orchards there Is every prospect
for full crops of all kinds of fruit.- This
does not hold true everywhere. There Is
a small number of orchards In which a
large part of the fruit was killed. Gener
ally speaking, however, the loss is lnslg.
nlficant.
