BAN FRAJJCISCO. Aug. 17, With no
crowds storming the courtroom doors
or admittance; no stylishly dressed
romen filling the spectators' seats
md with only a number of morbid
loiterers cupping their ears for tha
estimony of the witnesses, the trial
kf P. Drew Camlnettl. charged with
violating the Mann white slave act.
proceeded today before the Jury that
was selected before the morning sea
sion was over.
The atmosphere Is different than
during the trial of Maury L Dlggs,
companion of Camlnettl, who was con
victed a week ago under the same ac
cusation.
In the Dlggs case the Intense gen
eral Interest was manifested by the
large attendance and the variety of
people attracted. In the Camlnettl case
ha.lt the seats in the-courtroom are
vacant, the excitement has given way
to monotonous procedure and every
one, even the defense, seems anxious
to hurry and have the thing over.
MiM Non-la oh Stand Todar.
Miss Lola Norris, the Sacramento
girl Camlnettl is accused of having en
ticed away- with Marsha Warrington,
her chum, to Reno, Nev., will take the
stand tomorrow. It is expected by
counsel. Theodore Roche, Assistant
United States District Attorney, said
today that her testimony would be
Identical with that given In the case
Of DigKS. Miss Warrington will fol
low her on the stand.
Proseautor Roche made his state
ment of the Government's case almost
identical with that heard by the Diggs
Jury, wtlh one exception.
one thing more. ne concluded.
"and this the most Important In my
statement:
'We Intend to prove that Lola Norris
was a pure and virtuous girl up to tha
time she met Camlnettl and that canal
netti wrought her ruin. We shall
prove It from the Hps of Lola Norris
herself.
Camlnettl Not to Demy.
Camlnettl has already announoed
that he will contradict nothing to
which Lola Norris may testify.
Roche aald the Government would
not seek to prove that Camlnettl
bought the tickets, but that he gave
Lola Norris 120 to buy her ticket, and
hat Intr rtle-ff-n aald: "There must be
J lAder to this party," and bought the
tickets himself.
Dlggs. attired In a natty suit of
brown and seemingly In the best of
spirits, took a seat next to Camlnettl
today. The attorneys for the defense,
the same who defended him, requested
him quietly to leave, and seeing the
wisdom of the suggestion he retired
to the corridor, where he spent the rest
of the day gaily chatting with deputy
marshals and court attendants.
Judsre'a Comment Pertinent.
Just before adjournment a pertinent
comment was made by Judge Van
Fleet bearing directly on Caminettl's
responsibility In the Reno trip. Coun
sel for the defense, in objecting to
questions asked by Roche seeking to
show the defendant had participated
In arranging and conducting the trip.
said that members of the train crew
and-the ticket agent who had testified
had failed to connect Camlnettl with
any of the transactions concerning the
purchase of tickets or the engaging
of the drawing-room of the train.
"It is not necessary," said the court.
in overruling the objection, "to show
that the defendant handled the money
or made the purchase. Certainly. If
the Government proves that he was in
the party, under the circumstances
they have set forth. It is sufficient
showing to develop the connection of
the defendant with the transaction.
' Four Witnesses Heard.
Four witnesses testified today. They
are: R. J. Simen. ticket agent at Sac
ramento; M. B. Jones, the conductor of
the train .upon which Camlnettl and his
companions rode to Reno on tne morn
lng of March 10; C H. Walbourn, the
Pullman conductor, who sold Dlggs the
drawing-room ticket, and S. A. Dedrick.
the colored porter who waited on the
party and helped them on and off the
train.
A majority of the Jurors are married.

Conasel Refers to Polltira.
"Would the fact that National poli
tics have been Imported Into this case
have any tendency to Influence your
mind in arriving at a verdict?" was a
favorite question of Marshall Wood
worth, chief counsel for the defense.
"I think counsel uses a most unfor
tunate phrase," commented the court,'
after several repetitions. "I should be
sorry to think that what has arisen In
connection with this case could be
called National politics. I think it
micht be properly called party politics
in WasMngton."
Anticipating any attempt of the de
fense to show that Camlnettl fled to
Reno in a panic without thought cf
remaining and without preparations,
the Government will introduce evi
dence to prove that he resigned his
position as a clerk with the State
Board of Control and assigned his pay
warrant to a saloonkeeper before he
left
3 HURT BY EXPLOSION
Buried Dynamite Responds to Stroke
of Crowbar.
OREGON CITY. Or Aug. S7. (Spe
cial.) Twenty-five sticks of dynamite,
tamped by a, heavy crowbar after they
were supposed to have been fired, ex
ploded yesterday and blew three men
high into the air. All were injured and
one may not recover.
With an arm and a leg broken, his
head badly crushed and Internal injur
ries, W. C Ralney was carried to the
Oregon City Hospital after the explo
sion and is in a critical condition.
Before the men at work on the rock
crusher at First and Center atreets
could pick Rainey up they had to move
a rock estimated 'to weigh four tons.
Part of the boulder was resting on the
body of the unconscious man. The
force of the explosion blew Ralney 15
feet and piled the rock on top of him.
Rainey is 48 years of age and haa a
wife and several children.
Harry Cowden, 23 years of age. and
Matt Pollner, SO years, were blown 0
feet and fell In a pile of rock and dirt.
Dirt was blown by the force of the
blast into the flesh and the men were
painfully burned about the arms, face
and neck, although their other injuries
were slight.
Wnrirmam had set the 25 dynamite
sticks for an explosion about 4 o'clock
in the afternoon.
For some reason the blast did not
fire. The men believed that It had
gone through the bottom and that they
wnnM have to reset the charge and
fire it again to blow out the side of
the hill. They picked up their heavy
orowbars and began the work of tamp
ing and setting for the second charge.
"We have struck something soft,"
said one of the workers as his bar set
tled Into the dynamite charge. Then
there was an explosion that was heard
all over the city and shook the win
dows of the houses close to ' the
crusher.
Fragments of broken rock, boulders
that weighed several hundred pounds
and tons of dirt were blown Into the
air and a great crevasse torn In the
earth.

OLD VETERANS TO VISIT
Men Fought in Same Regiment, but
Have Never Known Each Other.
COTTAGE GROVE, Or, Aug. 17.
(Special.) To visit a war comrade
whom he had never seen, L. B. Moon,
who with his wife had been visiting
their daughter, Mrs. S. E. McGavran,
left Monday for Portland, where they
will be guests of A. C. Borthwlck, a
real estate man of that city, and ex
state commander of the Grand Army of
the Republic.
Messrs.. Borthwlck and Moon served
together in the same regiment, the
First New Tork heavy artillery, but

Moons are from Kansas, and when Mrs.
Moon was out here last year Mr. Borth
wlck. learning that her husband had
been such a close associate in the war,
entertained her.
Mr. and Mrs. Moon will leave Thurs

PICKERS GO TO HOPYARDS
Hundreds Assemble at Independence)
to Aid in Harvest.
INDEPENDENCE. Or. Aug. 27. (Spe
cial.) As time for beginning of the hop
harvest draws near, the town Is fill
Ins; ud with pickers who have come to
help us harvest the crop. Every train
is now loaded, and from now on It will
be impossible for trains to get out of
this city on time. The picking will
not begin until next week, but hun
dreds of pickers have already come
and are coming in early so as to get
the best camping grounds.
The weather Is still good and the
quality of the hops still keeps up. On
account of the light yield in some
yards, it Is impossible to tell yet
whether the crop will be heavy or
light. All yards report full crews of
pickers, and It Is expected that all of
the crop will be saved this year.

Prosperous Towns In Heart of Fer
tile Walla Walla Valley Have
Better Outlook Than Ever; Fu
ture Consolidation Likely.
BY ADDISON BENNETT.
TWIN CITIES. Umatilla County. Or,
Aug. 27. (Special Correspondence.)
It would be as Impossible to write an
article about Freewater without men
Honing Milton as It would to write
about Milton without having much to
say about Freewater. So I will call
the two places the nam often given
them and endeavor to give the reader a
fair idea of their standing.
Milton was Quite an old town long
before Freewater was ever thought of.
When the 0.-W. E.4K. was built from
Pendleton north to Walla Walla, the
engineers found It impracticable to
run directly through the little town of
Milton. It missed It by a mile, or about
that dlstanoe. I meant the heart of the
town, for the depot la in the eltv lim
its. A few years later a little trading
point started up just outside of the city
limits, but near tha depot. In time this
place began to be Called Freewater, by
which name It Is still known. There
are various stories about the cause for
the establishment of this town, but
let It be attributed to business reasons
pure and simple. No matter how It
came about, no matter how fortunate
for some and unfortunate for others
It was the people of the two places
have practically forgot'.en their dif
ferences, and seem to be maklnir united
errorta to build ud the Twin Cities.
No doubt when the present population
is doubled or trebled, as It will be in a
mighty few years, the people of the
Twin Cities will get together In a spirit
of friendship snd amity and unite the
two places under one city government.
Tevra la Wonderful Valley.
This Is In that portion of the won
derful Walla Walla valley, belonging to
Oregon. The river runs through Milton,
and there separates Into two streams,
one being called the Little Walla Walla
and the other retaining the name
Walla Walla. The former flows through
Freewater. The main valley lies off to
the north, northwest and northeast,
towards Walla Walla and Its environs.
The entire country, nearly all of it, be
tween here and the ridge north of that
city, la practically a vast garden spot.
much of It covered with fruit tree a
And In the entire state of Oregon there
is no more prosperous - section than
this. While It Is a fruit country first
and a garden section second, there Is
something being shipped almost every
day from early In March until the first
of the next January, and when Winter
applea sell a trifle slow, as they did last
year, the shipments of fruits and
produce keep up the year through.
I said it is a prosperous section; I
can go farther and say that It never
before had a better outlook than It has
today. Remember now 1 am not speak
ing of Milton or Freewater, but of
both of them, and the district In which
they are situated.
Perhaps it will be well to explain
that It Is an irrigated district. The
annual precipitation hereabouts Is
oftener under 15 inches than above it.
The wheat lands around get but one
crop in two years. The land now in
orchards and gardens was all in wheat
before water was put on it. Now
water la taken from the Walla Walla
River for much of the grult and garden
section, but a good deal of land is irrl
gated by pumping from wells.
Water Righta Well Adjusted.
Irrigation here is an art. In no
place that I know of do the water
users, the irrigators, get better service
from the water at their disposal than
here. Indeed, the irrigators of this
section are noted for that. Another
thing the water rights of this entire
valley have been adjusted, so there Is
no longer any friction or , disputed
rights.
Each city has a good weekly newt-
paper. The Milton Eagle la one of the
best papers any small state has, and
One of the best known. It haa been
successfully running almost 27 years.
The present proprietors are Bruce
Shangle and O. E. Dldlon. They are
making money, and everybody here
eems proud of the paper they are get
ting- out.
On the Freewater tide Is the Free-
water Times, which Is in Its 12th vol
ume. D. C Sanderson and his son, S.
Bevltt, are the owners, editors and
managers. Ther too are making money
and getting out a good, live little sheet.
Both the Times and the Eagle are all
home print. Neither of them uses any
plate matter.
There are two railroads here, the O.
W. R. ft N. and the Walla Walla Elec
tric. The latter has a train each way
every hour from I A. M. to I P. M, and
several later trains. It is 12 miles to
Walla Walla by the steam road, IS by
the trolley. Both of these roads are
doing a wonderful business here,
fruit Shipments Large,
Fully 1000 carloads of fruit and vege
tables will be shipped from here dur
ing the year 1912, and nobody can es
timate anywhere near accurately the
smaller shipments. Then come the grain
shipments, about 100,000 sacks, and per
haps 200 carloads of hay and alfalfa.
Add to these figures the stock ship
ments and the merchandise shipped In.
and it will be seen that the railroads,
principally the O.-W. R. & N, get a big
revenue from the freights handled in
and out of the Twin Cities.
All the fruit this year Is being han
dled through the Milton Fruitgrowers'
Union and the Walla Walla Fruitgrow
ers' Association, in connection with the
Pacific States Central Selling Agency.
The two former see to grading, pack
ing and shipping the products, and the
latter does the selling. This Is the first
season of this arrangement, the local
packing-houses heretofore doing their
own selling. But thus far the present
arrangement is more than satisfactory.
W. B. Brooke, the president of the. Free
water Commercial Club, said that last
year the prunes (one of the big crops
here) brought the shippers an average
of $12.60 a ton; this year they have ao
far netted $35. Cherries last season
were a drug at a price scarcely above
the cost of freight, packing and. boxes:
this year they have averaged $50 a ton
net. More than 210 tona were shipped
East, through a San Francisco house, to
be "maraschlnoed." These were Royal
Annes. It is said that a number of
Royal Anne trees in the district netted
their owners $35 a tree, lots of them
ran above $16 a tree. This Is net, de
ducting all picking, packing and freight
charges.
Milton Has glx Churches.
Milton is a town of churches and
church people. There are six churches
in the little burg Methodist Episcopal.
Presbyterian, Adventist (Seventh Day,
Baptist, Christian and Church of God.
On the Freewater side they have the
Catholic and a federated church, the
latter being a consolidation of several
organizations of different denomina
tions. There Is also a college, the Co
lumbia College, on the Milton side,
where they educate people for the min
istry. This belongs to the Methodist
Episcopal Church South. It haa dur
ing the term about 14S students.
Whatever one may think of the
towns' being divided and scattered, one
thing is certain on school Questions
there are no division, no dissent or dis
cord. All of the territory In the two
placea la in one school district. There
Is a good grade school in each town
and a central high school in the center
of the district, midway between the
two places. There Is also a small over
flow grade achool on the Milton aide.
The taxable property of the district
exceeds $1,000,000, so the tax Is low.
Professor J. J. Sturglll is city superin
tendent and principal of the high
school. He Is said to be an efficient
man, one who maintains the best of
discipline and yet retains the esteem of
his pupils and teachers. The people
in both towns speak highly of their
schools and attribute their high stand
ing largely to Professor Sturglll.
Just now many Inhabitants there are
In ' the places is a question to which
I would not like to venture an answer.
By the census of 110 Milton had 1280
and Freewater (60. Do the two placea
still have about the same relative num
ber! The answer yon will get to that
question depends on the town you are

INTEREST IX WASHINGTON.
Contract of Delinquents Ordered
Canceled -Where Improvements
Have Not Been Made.
OLTMPIA. Wash, Aug. 27. (Special)
Democratio members of the State
Board of Land Commissioners definite
ly asserted themselves yesterday and
addVted resolutions instructing the
Republican Commissioner of Public
Lands, Clark V. Savidge, to proceed
forthwith to cancel and annul all land
contracts on which Interest payment is
delinquent and where no substantial
improvementa have been made.
State Forester Ferris, who as a
member of the board. Introduced the
reaolutlon, followed it with aharp
comments on the policy of the land
office to date In this matter. "It haa been
the practice to permit such persons to
hold large areas for two or three years
without even psylng the Interest, and
then when they have opportunity to
dispose of such Ianda at a big profit to
allow them to come In and pay up,"
said Ferris. Ferris added he did not
believe It should be the policy of the
board to work a hardship on farmers
who have made improvements on their
lands In good faith.
The Board of Land Commissioners
consists of the Commissioner of Pub
llo Lands, an elective official and the
State Forester and the three members
of the Tax Commission, all appointive
officials and all Democrats at present.
In past years, however, the policy of
the board always haa been guided by
the suggestions of the Land Commis
sioner, except for a short time during
the administration of Governor Hay,
when hie appointees clipped the wings
of Land Commissioner Ross. Now It
appears that Governor Lister's Demo
cratic appointees have determined to
take over active direction of land
office affairs.
BANDON MAN IS MISSING

NIGHT - NOISES DISTURB
Eugene Council, However, Decides
to Let Gravel Trucks Run.
EUGENE. Or, Aug. 27. (Special.)
That troublesome consciences, rather
than the passing motor trucks, keep
some Eugene persons awake, was the
suggestion offered at the Council meet
ing by Y. D. HensllL Alderman, when
Mayor To ran mentioned protests that
have been made at the noise of the
gravel haulers at night. Macadamlx
ing of roads leading out of Eugene has
made a heavy demand on the crushed
rock dealers, whose five-ton trucks are
kept going throughout the day and
night to keep ahead of the workmen
on the roads.
Another Councilman suggested that
the railroads and other evidences of
prosperity make much noise at night,
and. that the best thing to do Is to
get 'accustomed to the noise.
The gravel trucks are still running.
BARS IN STATIONS TO PASS
New Law Will Become Effective Sat
urday Night.
SALEM. Or, Aug. 27. (Special.)
Next Saturday night will see the end
of all saloons located In or near rail
road stations, the law passed at the
last session of the Legislature, making
them Illegal, becoming effective Sep
tember 1. The fight to do away with
saloons In railway stations was atarted
by Governor West more than a year
ago. when an effort waa made to close
the bars in the Jefferson-street station,
in Portland, through injunction pro
ceedings. It developed that the exist
ing law relating to the subject was not
sufficient to close the saloons and a
new one was passed.
The law affects a large number of
aaloons throughout the state. So far
as is known, the saloon men have no
intention of fighting the law.

Charles Brandaw, assistant freight

Keeping the Body in Repair
Nature intended that the body should do its own
repairing and it would do so were it not for the
fact that most of us live other than a natural life.
Nature didn't intend that we should wear corsets, tight collars or
shoes, nor live in badly ventilated and draughty houses, nor eat and
drink some of the things that we do, nor ride la street cars when we should walk.
The consequence is that the body when it gets out of order must look for oat-
siae neip to make tne necessary repairs.
