THURSDAY - OCT. is, 1908 Railroads and the election It is not likety that there will be any definite announcement bi' railroad cuiisiiuclioii in Oen iral Oregon before the end of the year. It la true that both Mr. Harrimau and the Oregon Trunk Line people, supposed to have the backing of James J. Hill, have announced their in tention of building lines into this country, but there is a dif ference between that and an an . nounceinent that actual con struction is to begin. An nouncements of this character, involving the expenditure of live or six million dollars, can hardly be expected on the eve of a presidential election, and although the election is less than three weeks distant, it will require some little time for mar ket conditions to settle down to the normal again, after the election is over. The money markets are invariably affected by a presidential election, and railroad securities are among the first to feel the effect. Should Mr. Brvan be elected to the presidency, the announce ment of railroad construction and of similar undertakings . 1. 1 .. .11 3 mi ? iuuy uu lunger ueiayea. 1111s is noha partisan view of the sit uation, but an observation of ..the geoeral feeling of uncer taint j' us' to what the outcome will be should Mr. Bryan be elected. And, it is this feeling of unrest and uneasiness which is responsible in almost every instance for the tightening 01 tlie.money majket, and the haid times wuiou ensue.

In the meantime both the Harriman interests and the Or egon Trunk Line are hurrying their surveys and ouch prelim inary work as must be done be fore construction can be begun, ana tnere is every maicaiion 'that one or both of those roads -It 1 f f I "IT ?

Of this amount U,000,000 pounds was markeied at 8hauiko, which was Ihe latg- est amount sold at any point in uregon. Not only is Shaniko the banner wool market of the state in point of Quantity, but 'Shauiko wools," as the clip is known among buyers, rank first in this state, in duality, and the big clips marketed at that place have brought the top price eacn rear. Ciook county wool is all. mar keTeU at Shaniko, and is the Mmo factor in making that itoint tiie banner wool market hi tiie state. The largest clip tf wool iir the state, and doubt less1 ttie finest taken as a whole, is tiie Balhwrn clip from Hoy- creel iir tliis cbiiuty; which is j annually sold at Shnniko. This year the Baldwin totnpany did not sell its wool at the public sales, but later it was sold at a pritfe which maintained the pre miership of Crook county wools. At tho first public sales iho top piico was secured by Joe Wagner, another Crook county sheepman. The Dalles, which this year marketed only a quarter of a million pounds of wool, was tho biggest market Jor yaw wool in 1 he United States before the railroad was built to Shnniko, but the latter point doubtless holds that honor now. ENFORCING THE LAW Umatilla county voted "dry" in the Juno election and there appears to be a determination on the part of the oflicera of the law to make the county dry in fact. At least thej' are making it an expensive business to vio late the local option law. Two saloonmen of P.endleton were convicted, last week, of selling liquor in violation of the local option law and were fined $700 each. There are a number ol other similar cases on the Cir cuit Court docket in that coun ty, and if the other defentants iare similarly, it promises to be a profitable term of court for state and count'. The local optioti law, where invoked, should be enforced, and a few convictions and heavy tines for offenders will have 11 deterrent, effect on "boot-leg gers" in any coummunity. All good citizens, irrespective ol their personal opinions on the prohibition question, will desire to see the law enforced, and u ill applaud the efforts of the offi cers of the law in that direction. BAD.FOR THE FAIR The unusually protracted rains 5f this week will be dis couraging to the management ot the countv fair at Prineville which opened last Tuesday an continues through the remain der of the week. The Jissnr.hi tion h liberal puree ... 'or Hie various speed events anfl jg doubtles8 depending the &l receipts for con 8iderubie llejp in defraying th .xnenses of the mtwtiiifr. Tim rainy weather will have a ten dency to decrease the attend ance, but iCis to be hoped that the last da's of the fair Mil be bright ones, and that the attendance will be large enough to make up for the shortage o tue jjrst day8 Quite a number of people from this section who had planned to attend the fair were deterred by the rain and th Inuddy roada. triumph of the "combine jt is estimated that fully 50 per cent 0f tie wheat crop o Oregon, Washington and Idaho was harvested this season with combined harvesters, the crop of the three slates being eslimaled at 60.000,000 bushels. Twenty two hundred and lifty combined .ers are 0perated in the three states, and it is. claimed for them that they effected a saving of 5 cents a bushel and two bushels f waste grain to j, .,t,in"onnn 000 (Q (,JH reVe,lue of tlw pro duceis. The "combine" is rap idly replacing the. old style threshing machine, ud in the older and more prosperous farming districts the thresher will soon become a rarily.
