John Anderson Empties His Revolver at Mat Kasori. But Without Ef feet.. John Anderson, a farmer living In the Despaln gulch north of town, took four shots at Mat Kasori Monday and is now under arrest on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon. The story of Kasori Is that he and Johnson became involved in a dispute over the paying of wages. Kasori had been employed on Johnson's ranch and claimed that Johnson owed him for labor. In the excite ment it seems Kasori caught hold of Johnson and held him, making him promise not to do him bodily harm if he would turn him loose. Johnson promised to be good and Kasori turn ed him loose and went to hitch up a team. Johnson went into the house, procured a revolver, walked to the porch and began firing at Kasori, emptying four chambers of the revol ver at his enemy. Kasori v.ame to town and swore to a complaint against Johnson and he was placed under arrest Johnson claims he did the shooting in self defense. The trial was set for 2 o'clock this afternoon.

Chov Kon. organizer of tho now Chinese association which is work ing for the overthrow of tho Tartar dynasty which has been in power in China for the past 300 or 400 years, was in the city this week and held two meetings in Hondrick's hall, which were largely attended by Chi namen of all stations. Tho name of the now organization Is too much of a Chinese puzzle to appear In print, but the objects of tho organization, as outlineu oy uiu speaker, and by influential Chinese who wore interviewed regarding the matter, are to place on tho throne of China the rightful heir, according to the doctrines of tho original Chinese China a Conquered Nation. The present ruler of China is not a real Chinaman, but is a descendant of the Tartars, who in 1642 overran China and conquered the people at that time inhabiting the country. When Pekin, the capital city, was captured by the Tartars, owing to the treachery of his supposed friends, Sun-Che, the last emperor of the Ming dynasty and the last of the genuine Chinese rulers, threw himself Into the Yangste Yiang River and ended his reign. It is to place on the throne of China the lineal descendant of Emperor Schun-Che, re-establish the Ming dynasty and introduce many re forms in the manner in which the government of China is administered that the organization represented by Choy Ivan is working. Emblems of Subjection. Tho Tartar dynasty, of which the present emperor of China is a descen dant, Introduced tho wearing of pig tails, which at the time df its Intro duction was an emblem of the infer iority of the Chinese, and their sub-i jection to the Tartars, and many other customs which are regarded as essentially Chinese, are in reality only the result of rigid regulations inflicted upon a conquered people by tho Tartar conquerers. Do Away With Many Things. These and many other habits of the Chinese would bo done away with by the new organization, which repre sents not only the "royalist" or "rightful heir" party, but as well the more progressive element of the Chi nese people. The principal open mis sionary work for the new party is being done in the United States, Can ada and Great Britain, as the workers in those fields can do more for the financial support of the party and have not the danger of losing their heads, which is ever present with those who advocate the party within tho confines of China. Many Organizers at Work. Choy Kon is but one of many or ganizers who are working in the in terests of the new association, and it is believed that within a few years tho party will be strong enough to make itself felt in the management of the Chinese government. In this country tho organization in every city where there is a population of 100 or more Chinese, erects or maintains Us own hall or meeting place, and operates on the pattern of a well managed club, being not only a hot bed of rebellion, but a fountain head of higher and progressive education as well. Choy Kon will bo back this way on Friday, at which time it Is confident ly expected by tho Chinese of the city to perfect the organization of a branch of the now organization in Pendleton. ing when ho wont through tho pock ets. In ovldouce todny tho young man stated that he was not acquainted with Robinson and never told him to holp himself to tobacco. "Whether or not Robinson Bet tho room on flro with the idea of committ ing robbcrv during the excitement or not Is not known but tho evidence was such as to wnrrant Judge Fltz Gerald binding him over to the next term of tho district court. Robinson is a Toxan, claims to have been a soldier In the regular army in the Philippines and wns cIIb charged In February. Ho hns only been around Pendleton a few weokB and has been employed on a farm in Thorn Hollow. WOOLEN MILLS. FIRE IN LODGING HOUSE. Man Arrested Charged With Attempt, ing Arson and Robbery. About 5 o'clock this morning the occupants of the Penland Bros.' lodging house, were rudely awakened by the alarm of fire. Upon Investiga tion ono of the rooms was found to be In a blaze, but It was discovered in time to be extinguished before any serious damage was done. Whether or not tho fire wns set ma liciously or was an accident, no ono knows, and perhaps nover will know, but it looks suspicious. About 1 o'clock this morning D. Turner, who is on tho night police force, took a man named M, C. Robinson to the room In the lodging house and put hi mto bed. Robinson was drunk. At 5 o'clock fire was discovered in Rob inson's room. Ho claims not to know how the flro started, but during the tirao tho flro was being extinguished Robinson went Into another room and was caught by Penland going through another fellow's pockets. Penland and Karl Churchhlll took charge of Robinson and took him to police head, quarters where ho was locked up. When asked what ho was searching for ho claimed ho vtob acquainted with tho young man and asked him If he had Bmoking tobacco. Ho claimed furthor that tho young man answered that his tobacco was In his pockots and told him to holp hlmsolf. This was what Robinson claimed to bo do- A Little Information Regarding the Industry on the Pacific. Tnmmn Is to have a woolen mill. At least such is the declaration of the Tacoma papers. The enterprise and public spiriteduess that makes pos diiift thn Innucuratlon of Biich an In AnatrV In thn "CltV Of DCStini'." IS to be commended. It is certain that Tnrnma is In need of more Industries But just because Tacoma is to have n wnnlnn mill is no reason why tho Tacoma press should misrepresent tho woolen manufacturing situation on tho Pacific Coast. In a recent iBHim of tho Tacoma Evening News under the caption, "Tacoma's Great Woolen Mill Project," appears tno following enormous statement: "There is no woolen mill of any 1m portnnce on the Pacific Coast, and none nearer than the city of St. i'aui which is about 1850 miles distant." Either the author of this statement is ignorant of the facts, or else he wilfullv misrenresents the situation As for tho State of Washington it mav be said that woolen mills are not among the conspicuous Wastries. The stnte has but one little plant, and that is located in Seattle. Oregon. however, has made considerable pro gress In the manufacture or woolens, and while as yet but a Bmall propor tion of the annual clip is converted into cloth at home, the state has nine mills with a total capacity of 10 sets. Oregon City has a mill with 13 sets; Portland and Salem have mills of six sets capacity each; Albany, Eugene and Bandon have three-sot mills each, and Pendleton and Brownsville have mills of two sets each. Perhaps the total consumption of these mills is 3,000,000 pounds of wool annually, and as the annual clip of Oregon ap proxlmates 20,000,000 pounds, It Is to be seen that there Is a large Burplus for export. California has about a rlitaen woolen mills. Perhaps, the most Bingular an nouncement in connection with the Tacoma woolen mill enterprise is the proposal to import and manufacture the wools of Australia and New Ze land. This, in the face of an 11 cent duty, nnd the enormous wool production of the Pacific Coast, gives the enterprise a "fishy" aspect. John Sparks, of Reno, Nev., will not show at the California state fair this year, preferring to show at the Oregon state fair Instead. Ho has one of the finest herdB of Hereford cattle in the United States and will exhibit 20 head at the fair this fall.

Wheat Ib now being quoted locally at 48 conts a bushel and tho vfarmers are looking on with much apprehen sion. With a good crop and prospects of a good price the farmerB of Umatilla county were beginning to tlflnk they wero in luck, but now they are not feeling so good. At least, most of thom nro not. Some took ndvantnge of tho early sales when they could get from 50 to 52 conts aa bushel and let loose of tholr holdingB, but owing to the fact that the Indications wore such as to lead farmers to bolievo in stead of declining in price wheat would open strong and remain the Bamo or perhaps, go higher, many held hoping to realizo a profit there by. In fact, few farmers were in any great rush to got rid of their crops. It 1b impoBible to figure whether or not grain will continue to fall or will stand still for a while, then go up and consequently the matter of prices Is now about all the Umatilla county farmer haB to wory about. It Ib estimated that In Umatilla county 100,000 bushels of wheat have been sold out of tho 1902 crop. While this Is less thnn one-third of tho pres ent crop it has brought a large sum of money into tho hnnds of the lucky farmers. None has Bold for Icbb than 50 cents and from that to 52 cents a bushel at the present price the mar kets are practically at a standstill. Ambiguous.
