Cementing of Pleasant Rela tions, However, Held Most Important by Jobbers. 6000 ACRES NOW WATERED SALES MAY TOTAL MILLION SCENES AT MABTON, WASH. V; . H ABTON GROWING Visitors All Express PUasure Over Entertainment Features and Sur prise ' at Completeness of ' Stocks of Wholesalers. Actual trade worth $50,000 diverted to Portland, and the creating: of favor toward Portland as a market the lat ter of inestimable value are two con crete results of Buyers' Week which came to a close yesterday, according to those most interested. "It surpassed expectations." said C. C. Chapman, sec retary of the Jobbers- and Manufactur ers' Association, "a phenomenal suc cess." commented xsatnan oirauaa, 01 Fleischner-Mayer Company, chairman of the committee in charge. "We cmilrtn't have been treated better," as serted Buyer H. G. Newport, of Her miftton- ' Business transactions of the week during which the buyers were here are MDoctei) to amount to $800,000, for which the visitors were responsible, but as Portland was the commercial center for most of these buyers, du,vuv is the extra amount of trade believed to have been brought by the exploita tion week. Havers Exprem Pleasure. Buyers Interviewed during the week all expressed their pleasure at the de lightful round of entertainment offered them, and surprise at tne completeness of the stocks kept by the local Jobbers. Merchants of this city believed they rierlvori much benefit from the week. but thought generally that the benefit was not to be estimated Dy tne money left in their hands by the buyers but by the cordial relations- Incurred be tween themselves and customers. The total registration of visitors this year was 620, double the number or last year. This number doubtless will be trreatly increased next year, for the prospect is that the week will become an annual occurrence. Yesterday's entertainment consisted of a pleasant luncheon served at noon aboard the steamer Santa Cecilia, of W. R. Grace & Co., at the Municipal dock, and an automobile ride through the city. The automobile trip, led by Mr. Chapman, took in the choice resi dence districts of Willamette and Port land Helahts. crossed the Hawthorne bridge and proceeded to Laurelhurst, Irvine-ton and Rose City Park, return ing to the Commercial Club over the Broadway bridge. Week Surpasses Expectations. Among those who donated machines for the occasion were: Calvin s. wnite, C. F. Wright, Blake-McFall Co., H. J. Blaesing, Dr. C. W. Cornelius, W. H. Daughtrey, Dr. E. A. Pierce, S. C. Her man. G. B. Hovenden, Ira F. Towers, Thomas Hyslop, C. D. Brunn, J. W. Vo gan, C B. Jackson, F. T. Berry, Ford Motor Company, Studebaker Company, H. L. Keats. Frank Riggs, H. S. Boone, Overland Motor Company, Covey Motor ' Company, Harvey O Bryan, a. u. Miuer, Peter Mayer, F. S. Myers and F. W. Voegler. Mr. Chapman made the following Statement' last night: "The, week surpassed all expectations and without doubt will be repeated next year. As many of the visitors al ways bought their goods in Portland, it was not so much a success from a monetary standpoint as from the stand point of the pleasant social relations incurred. It did bring in new buyers, to be sure, but mainly it strengthened the bond between the wholesalers and their neighbors who have always traded here. "The actual transactions of the week should have been well above the half million mark. The returns are only partly in and a definite figure cannot be given. Last year it was figured that as many purchases were made in Portland of firms not participating in the Buyers' week as were of partici pants and if the same is true this year the receipts should be between $800, 000 and $1,000,000. Probably $50,000 of this is from buyers who would not have purchased in Portland had it not been for the opportunity afforded them by Buyers' week." Mr. Mills Inspires Confidence. "Its unqualified success assures one that Buyers' week will be a permanent Institution." said Nathan Strauss, of Fleischner, Mayer & Co., dry goods wholesalers, last night. "The visitors were double the number of a year ago, they bought freely and in all ways the week was a phenomenal success. I believe that the speech of A. L Mills last night reassurred many of the buy ers so that they went home with a feeling of confidence in the future. "It was gratifying to note the large attendance from distant points and many new connections were opened by virtue of this fact. Speaking for Fleischner, Mayer & Co., I may say that the week was extremely satisfactory to us. We opened many new accounts and sold large bills of goods, but we would have believed that all the effort spent on the week was well spent if it had not netted us a cent, merely be cause of its furtherance of a spirit of good feeling for the Portland market-" William H. Beharrell. general man ager of the Heywood Bros. & Wake field Co.. furniture wholesalers, said yesterday: "The real benefit of Buyers' week lies in the encouraging of acquaint ance with buyers and this Is where both merchant and Jobber profit, for If their social relations are pleasant their, business connections are likely to be profitable. Of course. Buyers' week does not attract many large buy ers, but its results are good. Much Furniture Sold. "There were very few furniture deal ers present this week and none from Albany. Salem, Roseburg and similar Oregon cities ' where are flourishing stores, but still I estimate that we sold two or three carloads of furlture dur ing the week to visitors. There were from $0 to 60 buyers at the luncheons given at our house Tuesday, Wednes day and Thursday noons." Jordan T. Brumfield. general man ager of Mason-Ehrman & Co., whole sale grocers, said last evening, apropos of Buyers' week: . "It was a very pleasing week, prov ing to be more of a social affair than one of business. I am sure all the buy ers enjoyed the days they passed here and the hosts no less. Several carloads of groceries were purchased from Mason-Ehrman & Co." "As a whole, the week was a very profitable one, especially from the so cial standpoint," stated J. W. Vogan, manager of the Aldon Candy Company, last night. ."We were in sympathy with the proceedings and believe the week to be an excellent plan." Chefoo.

CRIME OF 1898 RECALLED Spokane Detective, . on Governor's Initiative, Traces Evidence Re sulting In Arrests-Banker to Be Called by State. ROSEBTJRQ, Or., Aug. 16. (Special.) Witnesses and attorneys Interested in the case of Riley Cooley, charged with the murder of Thomas Van Pelt, n the isolated Chetco distrlot of Curry County, on February IT, 1898, were summoned to Gold Beach today, where evidence will be taken by the Grand Jury next week. Attorney Cardwell, who has been retained to defend the accused man, is on his way to Curry County, and should arrive there Mon day. The Cooley case is somewhat remark' able for tne reason that the defendant's arrest did not occur for 15 years after the alleged crime was committed. At the time Van Pelt , was killed Cooley lived on an adjoining ranch in the ex treme Southwestern part of Curry County. The Cooley and Van Pelt fam ilies had been on unfriendly terms for long time, and suspicion naturally pointed to the former. Although the Grand Jury of Curry County twice in vestigated the affair, they refused each time to return an indictment charg ing Cooley with the offense. About a year ago Van Pelt s son, who still lives in Curry County, appealed to Governor West for assistance in finding the slayer of his father. Through a Bpecial appropriation,' the Governor procured the services of Stephen Doyle, a Spokane detective. uoyie visited curry county several times and interviewed a number of persons who were living there at the time of the murder. The detective later went to San FranclBCO, where he subse quently arrested Riley Cooley. Cooley was brought here and later taken to Curry County, where he was placed under ball in the sum of $50,000. This amount of ball he furnished without difficulty, a number of prominent Coos County people going on his bond. - Cooley left Curry County shortly after Van Pelt was found, dead, and for several years prior to his arrest had been employed in a San Francisco brewery. He has a wife and grown daughter. Detective Doyle declares he has evi dence to show that Cooley received $500 from the cashier of a Spokane bank a few days after the murder oc curred. This money, Doyle will charge, was paid to Cooley to commit the crime. It is understood the man who was acting cashier of the Spokane bank at the time the money was paid will be an important witness for the state. In the event Cooley is indicted he will be tried some time this month. ROAD WORK BEING PUSHED Pnciflc Highway nils South of To ledo Almost Completed. CENTRALIA, Wash- Aug. 15. (Spe cial.)

After Government Takes Over Sunny side Irrigation Ditch Land Be comes About as Productive as Can Be Found In West. BY ADDISON BENNETT. MABTON, Wash., Aug. 15. (Special Correspondence.) This Is Mabton, a little town on the Northern Pacific Railway in Yakima County, about 18 piles southeast of Toppenieh. Just wny it was nrst canea iuaoton ana just what-jthe name means I cannot say. T. H. Howell is one of the oldest residents here in point of arrival. He came 22 years ago, when there were but a half dozen buildings here. It was known as Mabton then. He has been told it ls.an Indian name, but has never found an Indian wno couia ten nim wnat in name signifies. Anyhow. Mabton is a prosperous lit tie burir which is set down in tne cen sus of 1910 as having 666 people. The western borders of the town are on the eastern boundary line of the Yakima Reservation. The Nrthern Pacific de pot was formerly on the reservation, a few hundred yards west 01 wnere 11 now stands, having been moved a few vears aso. To tell the honest and unvarnished truth, the town had a great mishap about two years ago, from which it has not recovered. That was tne Durning of the Mabton Hotel. This was a fine three-story building, was so well' con ducted that the traveling men centered here for over Sunday and other travel ers knew it far and wide. In March, 1912. this house burned to the ground and has not been rebuilt That was a sad day for Mabton. G. S. Martin Is Progressive. One of my first interviews was at the newsDaDer office, the office 01 the JViaD ton Chronicle. , Tnis paper nas Deen runnlne for more than 10 years. It is a newsy little weekly and its pilot and chief engineer is a newsy and versatile individual. His name is u. ts. Martin, He seems to be glad he is here and does not care to move. He is willing to take his chances with the town he thinks It will be a big place before many years roll around. Mabton is under the Sunnyslde ditch, which was built by the Northern Pacific Railway. In fact you cannot turn around in this section without finding out that the aforesaid railway practl cally made this country. And they now give It about as good a service as anv section of the West nas. 'ine un nvsldn ditch was taken over by the Government. The main canal is on the north side of the Yakima River. About six miles east of here a portion of tne water Is syphoned under the river and waters about 6000 acres tributary to Mabton And perhaps this area of 6000 acres is about as productive lann ss can He louna in tne west wucu watered. ' Of course to raise fruit and pfnernl rods this section nas to De watered artificially, the precipitation hninir nnlv about 10 inches a year. The elevation here is 725 feet. The climate is superb for the production of fruits, alfalfa, corn, etc. As to corn, Mr. Martin says he thinks the area of that cereal and the nuhiber of hogs and dairv cows in the vicinity have doubled during the last year and will go on doubling. There is no creamery uero s-vet. but wagons come daily from across the river and gather the cream and pay the dairymen tne casn tor it. Two Hotels In Town. Tin not think because I said the Mab ton Hotel burned that the traveler cannot find good entertainment here. There are two hotels running tne Mabton, which consists of a good res taurant and plenty of nicely turnisnea rooms, and the uxioro. ino one flnrf fault with either of them. The town has but one bank, tne jviao- tnn Bank. It has a capital 01 zo,uuu and deposits of $90,724. Its president is A. J. Carlson, cashier Earl Larrlson. It must be remembered that the deposits ore now at their lowest eOD in tnis sec tion. This bank often has nearly siKn.nno on denosit. Thtn must be a bid mercantile busi ness transacted here, from the stocks of goods carried. There are two large Incorporated general stores, the Globe Trading Company and the King & Pressor Company. These concerns also have fine buildings and have the air of city establishments. There are also two large lumber yards, the Tum-a-lum and the White River. There is also a hin- hardware store and the usual com plement of drug, grocery and similar establishments. There is also a gen eral store on a smaller scale, run by a farmora' co-orerative company. There is a garage and general repair shop. which seems to be doing a Dig dusiubbo, Town Has Five Chnrches. ThAr are a number of splendid brick buildings in the town, notably the home of the Globe store, tne unaieiioa Hall, the high school building, the crr-ammar school building, the City Hall and numerous others of lesser impor tance. There are five cnurcnes cam- olic. Christian, Episcopal, Mniraii i'r,ianr.i and Presbyterian and no saloons. It has long been a dry town. Miinnln; the school buildings re minds me that the people are proud of their school system, in tne nign scnuui the pupil may go as high as through the 12th grade. Never having passed hpvnnrt the second grade my own self. it .trikea me as very, very high. The city has a good water system, the supply coming from a aeep wen ana distributed through a standpipe which o hie-h nressure. The electric lights and power are from the usual source in this section the Pacific Light & Power Company. Th Oreeonlan Is now nanaiea at Mabton by Karl Herold, who keeps a nice confectionery, cigar store ana news stand in the heart of the business section of the town. nr. nurum is hv the Globe Company and Mrs. Herold manages their little busi ness enterprise.
