The vote was taken after six hours of debate, largely on the Wheeler and Own by cases around which the oppo sition has centered. The discus- - sion held the attention of an un usually large number of senators, many members' of the house and crowded galleries. ' : ( Only two senators, Hef lin, dem ocrat, Alabama, and Norris,' repub lican, Nebraska, argued against confirmation, but senators on both sides expressed opposition to es tablishment of a precedent in the Wheeler case that -the government i could bring an action in the Dis trict of Columbia that could , lie In the home state of the accused." Besides Heflin and Norris, sen ators voting against confirmation were Frazier, republican. North -Dakota; Tram m ell, democrat, Florida and Johnson and Ship stead, "farmer-labor, Minnesota.

Several small dairy herds were wiped out en tirely, and more than 20 miles of fence were washed away. Water Covers Valley The water came down Bully creek until It ran into Malheur river, at the junction six miles west of Vale. Here the rush of water spread out across. the val ley, taking everything before It.
