An advanr .wu made late yesterday
afternoon In the quotations of wheat.
The. prices now stand: Walla Walla. 11

The unusually high rates for bluestem is
caused by the shortage In that product

Ion and now shows some strength. Al
though there are very few actual sales
made. It looks as if there will be some
light advances -soon In quotations. It Is
aid that there are now about 20,000 bales
In the entire state. Including those in the
hands of the brokers. About 16.000 of
these are yet In the hands of the growers.
fThe New York market is showing addl-
tional strength and it is very likely that
this market win pick up soon.

Is Not Receiving Support
in South
"Lily Whites" Have 'Stirred Up
Troubles That Will Not Be
Readily Allayed.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27. There is a
lingering feeling in the South for Senator
Manna for the Republican presidential
nomination, and if he would permit an
indication of the use of his name this
feeling would become exceedingly strong.
It is predicted. The declaration Is made
that the president has not by any means
crushed the white movement In the Re
publican party In the South. In Alabama,
where he has removed a United States
attorney and a collector of Internal reve
nue, and has a big axe poised over the
heads of District Attorney Reese and
Postmaster .Hughes of Birmingham, the
"lily white" faction has not been crushed.
Instead of promptly surrendering and
changing front that they might remain
around the federal pie counter, the "illy
white" leaders have defiantly announced
that they would continue their policy, and
in addition would fight the renomlnatlon
of the president. This fight has been
made more bitter by the recent declara
tion of Roosevelt that he would appoint
negroes to federal offices. It so happens
that in Alabama the Republican organiza
tion is well dominated by "lily whites."
M. Bingham is the national committee
man from the state, and In nearly every
other way the organization is well in
trenched in the hands of the white men
who proposed to overthrow the negro In
fluence In politics. This fact is not fa
vorable to the negro faction securing con
trol and defeating the alms of the "lily
whites." There is no doubt that the ne
groes In the party largely outnumber the
whites in Alabama, but the control is now
on the other side. The same thing may
be said in North Carolina, if Senator
Prttrhurd jtnd his organisation should -de-
clde to fight the president. There has

Backache, Uric Acid and Unitary Trouble.
Among the manv famous cures of
Swamp-Root Investigated by The 'Oregon
T5:iilv Journal the one we uubllsh today
for the benefit of our readers speaks in
the highest terms of the wonderful cura
tive properties of this great Kiuney

Dr. Kilmer & C o., BInghamton, N. Y.
Gentlemen hen 1 wrote you last
March for a sample bottle of Swamp-
Root, my wife was a great surrerer irom
backache, rheumatism and urinary trou
ble, also excess of uric acid. After try
tng the sample bottle ahe bought a lurge
bottle here at the drug store. That did
her so much good she bought more. The
effect of Swamp-Root was wonderful and
utmost Immediate. She has felt no re
turn of the old trouble since.

, - Ex-Reoresentitlv Romulus Z. Llnney
and -other Republicans In the state have
corns out if or Senator Hanna. iney a
doing so without caring whether Senator
Hanna gives his Indorsement or not. air.
Llnney was a familiar figure in Congress
several years ago.
'Whtta KemibticBTw la the South are
charging that the president Is violating
his own position on the civil service ques
tion by summarily removing men from
office whose, records wort- good. It Is re
called that when air. Ilingham was re

duct of his office was not a consideration

WORK OF l lti WHITES.
A peculiar fact Wii noticed by
Gen. J. S. Clarkson collator of the Port
of New York, and Southern manager of
political affairs of the administration. This
was that In nearly evi iy Southern state
where the "Illy white movement was
making progress an l the negro was being
eliminated there wis seeret hostility to
the president..- Mr. Clarkson is -declared
to have had some fe:irs that the "lily
whites" proposed to secure control of the
various state organizations, yet the negro
completely out of the way and then turn
on the president The latter had a friend
In Senator Pritehanl b North Carolina,
but there Was constant!- a strong senti
ment amongother white leaders for Sen
ator Hanna or some one else. Negro lead
ers in the South, especially Booker Wash
ington, thought they saw indications of
treachery, and they notmed Mr. Clarkson
and General Payne. Mr. Clarkson has
had some experience with Republican ma
chines in the South, and he concluded that
the president had mote genuine friends
among the negroes in the South than
among the small number of whites.
THE N FAROES.
In most of the Southern states the ne
gro has. If he exercises It, the voting
power In conventions to overturn any at
tempt against the president, especially In
those states where he still retains a par
tial control In the state committees and
county organisations. Texas and Louisi
ana are largely dominated by a white ele
ment, but in the latt. r state the oUlc-j-holding
habit may be too strong to Induce
any rebellion against the president there.
The president made some enemies In Ar
kansas early in his administration by re
moving several white officeholders whose
conduct of their offices was not lo his
liking. So there.. Is a nucleus for opposition
to lilm In that state. Tennessee, with a
white organization. Is supposed to be
friendly to the president, but this Is not
known.

SOME EARLY
BALLOONING
What Was Done Before Damont
Was Heard Of.
LA MOUNTAIN, AERONAUT
He Travelled 1,100 Mtfes Through
the Air and Barely Es
caped Death.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27. In these days,
when flying machines have taken so large
a place In the world's eye, there are still
those whose memories go swinging back
43 years to the triumphs of the great bal
loon Atlantic. There are many who clearly
remember her two great air voyages, one
from St. Louis to Henderson Harbor, N.
Y., the other from Watertown. N. Y., to
the Canadian wilderness of the Hudson
Bay country.
The Atlantic set SMI on the-first- of
these famous trips from Washington
Square, St. Louis, on the evening of July
I, 1869. In her capacious basket were
John La Mountain of Troy. N. Y., who
owned and controlled the craft, Prof. John
Wise of Lancaster, Pa., a notable aero
naut, William Hyde and O. A. Geager of
Bennington, Vt. .
The four hoped to cross the country to"
this city and with that end In view La
Mountain had expended the care and ex
perience of many years ballooning In mak
ing the Atlantic the biggest alr-voyager
ever constructed. The citizens of St.
Louis became vastly interested In all the
preparations for this Undertaking and
when the Atlantic swung up from among
them at Just 7:20 o'clock there was a
cheer of goodby from all the folk, who
wondered If the men In her were not
bound for certain death.
The balloon rose into a northeastern
current of air and In an hour St. Louis,
with the broad and twisting Mississippi
beside It, faded from sight, and the short
summer night began.
OVER THE LAKES.
At 4 o'clock in the morning La Moun
tain fancied that he espied beneath him
the yellow street lights of a large Indiana
town. Within another two hours the bal
loon had swept over Toledo and upori the
surface or lAke Erie. As'rhe Atlantic
iwissed 8unduskya small steamboat put
out from shore and its pilot, greeting the
ulr voyagers, told of the Intense excite
ment their trip was creating throughout
the country. The entire Northeast was
watching the skies for a sight of the
wonderful Atlantic.
The balloon passed rapidly down the
lake, keeping well out from shore and
saluting each of the passing craft. By
noon she had dipped Into Canada near
the mouth of the Welland Canal, had
crossed the Niagara River, and had put
Buffalo upon the right and Lock port upon
the left of her course.
It was then decided that the balloon
had traveled too far north to reach New
York City. The gas was beginning to fall
and It was thought advisable to make a
landing near Rochester, leavlne: Hvde and

scan the course of the Erie Canal for a
convenient landing place. They dropped
within a thousand feet of the earth again
and then discovered that a gale "was
springing up near the surface of the
ground.
The four knew that certain destruction
awaited them if they should attempt a
landing then. The Ai-antlc made terrific
dips downward. She neared the tops of
forest trees, until Wise, who was In
charge of the gas valve, shouted:
IN SORE STRAITS.
"For God's sake heave over anything
you can lay your bunds on, La Moun
tain!" La Mountain prepared to cut loose the
heavy boat, yet hesitated, for the balloon
was swinging north again and out to
ward Lake Ontario. He dropped over a
final 151 pounds of ballast, the Atlantic
shot up even In the terrific wind and her
crew hoped to reach the Canada shore.
ki this extremity everything went by
the board. First the ci-rpet bags and per
sonal belongings of the travelers, and
finally the heavy Instruments were sacri
ficed to the waters. The Atlantic would
rise only to sink dowrt upon the rough
surface of Ontario. The balloon swooped
upon the turbulent water and finally Its
boat crashed against the waves, breaking
it into firewood.

IhA Atlantic -swung into -the air-again.
The wind continued to sweep the balloon
along at a fearful rate, the half-distended
gas bag serving as a broad sail which
carried her forward at 70 miles an hour.
The balloon kept above water and the
four knew that they stood a good chance
of being bllwn upon the east shore of
Lake Ontario. Fifteen miles off shore
was a small steamboat, evidently bound
from Oswego to Kingston. When its
captain saw the peril of the aeronauts he
put about and followed in the Atlantic's
wake.
But the steamboat was soon left behind
and the Atlantic swept upon the shore
and over the treetops of the forest while
her dangling anchor hook tossed against
its highest branches.
When the hook finally caught in a tree
top the Atlantic's speed was such that
the Inch-and-a-quarter Iron Instantly
snapped. The balloon, thus freed, contin
ued Inland for a mile iurther, crashing
and breaking down trees until finally the

The tree held the airship captive for
nearly a minute, then It too, gave way
under the strain and high into the air
went the balloon, basket and the greater
part of the tree. This last load was too
much for the Atlantic and hardly had she
risen before she settled gracefully down

.The four found themselves. Upon the'

20 miles from Watertown. It was a little
after 3 o'clock. St. Louis time, and La
Mountain found that his giant ship had
covered over 1,100 miles in the incredibly
short time of 20 hours. ,
No record Is in existence of so long an
aerial trip either before or after this voy
age of the Atlantic. The balloon was cut

town, where it was exhibited to great
crowds of wondering country folk. La
Mountain repaired It and reduced its size
about one third.
The fame of the Atlantic and her long
trip had spread to every corner of the
country. Ballooning was proclaimed as a
perfectly feasible method of transporta

The balloon started at nightfall and took
a rapid course due north. It crossed the
St. Lawrence River and lost itself In the
wilds of Canada, about 150 miles north
of the city of Ottawa. Three hundred
miles were traversed In the wonderful
time of a few minutes over three hours.
The two aeronauts found themselves
lost In the great forest of the Far North.
The Atlantic was abandoned, and for four
days they stumbled through the brush be
fore they found a party of lumbermen
bound south toward Ottawa. It was 11
days after their ascension before the outer
world knew of their whereabouts, and long
before that time they had been given up
as dead.

THE MARQUAM
CASE ON TRIAL
Disposition of .Big -.Portland .Prop
erty Not Yet Settled.
Arguments In the case of P. A. Mar
quam's right to redeem his property
which is now held by a corporation known
as the Oregon Company, and was bid in
by J. Thorburn Ross, were made before
Judge Sears yesterday.
Attorney E. B. Watson argued the case
and contended that the Title Guarantee
and Trust Company as trustee for Mar
quam was not discharged by the court
until after the property had been bid In
by Ross, Its manager. Many legal points
were brought out. He contended that a
trustee Is not permitted to obtatn prop
erty In the execution of a trust, and a
trustee cannot make a bargain advan
tageous to himself.
Some of the legal points discussed and
read were:
"A trustee is absolutely disqualified,"
read the attorney, again referring to an
authority, "from becoming a purchaser at
a sale, for his 'own 'benefit. A party hold
ing property for "a"ni6rtgagof will "take
the property subject to the trust relations,
and all its consequences.
"Trust relations could not have been
passed upon In a foreclosure suit.
"Equities between parties could not be
determined In a foreclosure suit. The
party to a foreclosure . suit cannot be a
purchaser without permission.
"An executor, trustee or anyone noiaing
a fiduciary T-elaTiBtr t m .-another- is --uot-permltted
to purchase trust property, nor
have any Interest In the purchase. He 1s
hot" permitted to purchase property for
another, nor to manipulate property fqp
his own benefit, when he has a duty to
perform for another. The purchase is
not absolutely void, but voidable."
After reading many other authorities
which brought , out the same points, Mr.
McCammant responded with an argument
of some length. The case will be taken
up at a near date.
