Prospects are for a sharp advance In
tna price oi miia ana pernaps in out'
ter.
The reason for It will not ba any
combine of the milkmen, but to tha
great famine now existing in tha mill
feed market. At this time there are
practically no supplies of short to ba
had in this territory at any price, aim
ply because tha mills do not have the
snorts to sen. in a wora, tney are
short yes, very short of shorts, and
while tne present pric Is long It may
go higher.
The reason for tha mill-feed shortage
Is the general lack of oriental flour de
mand tnus far this season. Miners say
they never saw a time when such small
business was shown. Even during the
days when the orient was beginning to
learn its A B C's In the use of flour,
the call waa quite good from the Euro
peans living there.
What little amount of mill feed Is be
ing ground 1 in demand several times
over. " Millers usually contract a por
tion of their expected output of shorts
or other feeds, and at this time do not
have mora than sufficient supplies to
fill these contracts alone. The live
stock men must therefore let their
herds grace out in the open or else feed
them expensive oats or barley. If this
is done the price of all dairy products
will be advanced because of the In
creased cost. If, on the other hand, the
dairymen do not supply their herds
with oats and barley, they will produce
but little milk and cream. That will
surely cause dairy product prices to
reach toward the upper regions.
Dealers are charging $29 a ton at
this time for white oats, and supplies,
while fair, are not any too liberal at
that figure. A further advance Is likely.
Two holdups occurred last night n6

with no success In their efforts to ap
prehend th thug. So far aa Is known

proachlng triangular debate with Pacific
and Willamette universities. Harry Dav.

ford Rigsby, '08, will compose the team
against Pacific university, and Frank
Fletcher, 09, Lester Livengood, '08, and
Calvin Crumbaker, '11, the trio against
Willamette university. This division Is
not necessarily permanent, but will
stand unless some contrary reason de
velops. Against Willamette, Whitman will
have the affirmative of the question,
"Resolved, That the Japanese should be
admitted to the United States on the
same basis as European Immigrants."
The debate will be held in Walla Walla.
At Forest Grove Whitman will uphold
the negative of the same question. Both

The pollea have been asked to keep
a lookout for W. D. Darling, who haa
been missing from his home In Van
couver since last Sunday. He waa for
merly employed as a watchman at th
new bridge being built across th Co
lumbia river, but lost hi place there
on the firat of the month. Slnca then
he haa been drinking heavily. Finally,
when tho saloon proprietors In Van
couver refused to sell him any more
liquor he declared he would go where
he could get all he wanted to drink so
long as he had money to pay for it.
Sine that time he has not been seen
by any of his friends or acquaintances,
and it is feared hia threat may have
had a hidden significance.

Everything that has been published .

quoted the old colonist rates of $25 from
Missouri river points and $33 from Chi

come to Oregon next spring on these
rates. ,...,.,'..
It I feared that should tho rate be
cancelled and higher rates substituted
th expected colonist movement will not

Tha position of the UUI lines In tha ' .
fight is not yet authoritatively given
out, but It has been repeatedly stated,
without denial, that they hava been op
posed to continuing the old rate. It la
stated by local railroad men that Gen- ,

Great Northern and Cleland of th :
Northern Pacific have voted In favor
of Increasing the rate. , . -- ,

with favoring the abolishment of tha

for 2-cent passenger fare laws in middle ,

Should the old rat be Increased tha ,
reasons therefor will. It is said, be that
the roads desire to make up for reduced
fares on lines in 2-cent far states. - ,
Th Union Pacific system Is in a po
sition to maintain the old colonist rates -if

the standnolnt of self-interest in In-,
creasing the population of th sparsely

population and stimulating development. -The
Harriman lines laat year, during
two months of colonist seasons respec
tively In th spring and fall, brought
through the Huntington gateway up
wards of 25,000 people on one-way tick
