While There are Plenty of Men to Work, There Is Also Trouble In Keeping Them In the Fields. Some comnlalnt Is coming from the farin?re that they cannot keep their men in the harvest field. While men seem to be plentiful they are very In dependent and will quit on the slight est provocation. Hardly a day passes that some farmer or threshing machine runner is not in town looking for men to re plenish his crew, saying that Borne of his men have struck for higher wages and If they could not get the demand ed price they quit. This is causing more or less annoyance and delay In getting the crops harvested. Fair wages are being paid all over the country and the farmers claim there is little room for the working man to complain. Men are being paid the usual price of from $2 to $5 a day for common labor in the field while some are only getting $1.76 and perhaps a few arc working for $1.50. Very few are working for this figure, however, ab Ib also the case with $5 a day. Somt skilled engineers, separator tenders and perhaps a few other kinds ot workers are gettting this high price.

Davenport, Wash., Aug. 8. The dis graceful scenes which attended the viewing of Outlaw Tracy5s body in the morgue here will not soon be for gotten. Everyone who could gain ad mission to the morgue was anxious to secure some relic of the notorious desperado, and it was but a short time until everything but the body was gone, and It seemed likely that this would be gone before long li the crowds were let alone. Sheriff Gardner took the outlaw's rifle and revolved, the cartridges wore divided among the nosse. while 1nnk of Tracv's hair and bits ot his nlothine were carried away by curl osltv seekers until the body was en tirely stripped and large patches of the dead man's scalp were aenuaea Bloody Handkerchief Taken. nicked un the blood Hotted handkerchief which Tracy had used in the endeavor to save himself bleeding to death, wrapped the bit of cloth, which was wet with the mur derer's blood.

Considerable indignation was ex nronanri hv mftnv over the manner iu which the convict's body was rob bed by relic hunters, and there wab some talk of having warrants issued for the people who did this, dui there would have been such a large number of arrests necessary that the nronosition was dropped. Hundreds came from the surrounding country and ,other towns to view the remains of the dead murderer. WILL PROTECT THE CABLE UNITED STATES WILL NOT ALLOW HAYTIEN TO CUT IT.
