Mr. Brock has lust returneJ from a visit to the recent find of coal on the Willow Creek, 25 miles southeast of the county seat of Mor row county, and he Is very enthusl astic over the prospects of a rich thing for that country. He continued: "There is now no doubt but that there Is an immense quantity of coal in tho Willow Creel: country that the only thing that hat) worked against its development up to the present time was the fear that thi quality was not up to the standard. That has now been settled and n longer Is there any fear on this score. The company is developing the field as fast as possible and as soon ar the railroad Is built into the country the magnitude of the fields will begin to bo felt by the outside world. These coal fields will be a great thing foi Eastern Oregon. The time is fast ap proachlng when the country will havj to depend on coal for fuel and wit!. this vast body cow in sight It will be a boon for the country." Mr. Brock has a sample of the coal, which may be seen In Brock & Me Comas' drug store. Not Written by Mollneux. New York. Nov. 6.

CUT! DONATES TOWARD RAISING BANKS OF THE WALLA WALLA. Contract Let for tho Building of a Wing Dam Above the Railroad Bridge. Tho county court has donated $150 toward raising tho banks of tho Wallu Walla River, at Milton, to keep it from overflowing this winter and du stroylng valuablo lands and property along the river bottom. It will bo remembered that a meet ing was held between tho Umatilla and Walla Walla county commission ers a few months ago to determine what steps should be taken by the two counties in protecting this land. Each winter the water overflows and damages moro or less very valuable property and It was decided to have the railroad company build a bridge at that point to prevent obstruction in the river. As the railroad company will not build a bridge now, the citi zens living along tho river decider! that they would do what they could to protect thomselvcs temporarllv this winter. Tho two counties were asked to donate toward this repair lug and "Umatilla gave $160. What Walla Walla county will give, has not b'een made known, but tho con tract has already been let for the building of a wing dam above tho railroad bridge and what Is needed In excess of tho donations from tin; two counties will bo furnished by the citizens Interested. This dam will only cost about $600. WAS WOMAN A8SAULTED7 Ed Gaston, Charged With Rape, Is Now In Jail.

Name the Farm. A delightful Innovation might be made In our country districts at very small expense. How much would It add to the beauty and home-like ap pearance of Umatilla county to have a name for each farm. It would cost but little and Its value would bo last- Inc. It would show the originality and Individuality of every farmer in the county. IT would give tho ap pearance of a permanent and content ed hove-lovlng people. Just a plain, suggestive name of the owner's choice placed over tho great bam yard gate, would bo sufficient. Wo name all our other possessions. Tho steamboat, the blooded colt and calf, the dog, cow, horse and mule are all christened. Our streets are named, our Pullman cars have titles that reach up and down tho entire cate gory of saints; our rivers, mountains, valleys and towns all have distin guishing cognomens yet that pride of tho American heart, the home, goes through the -nviii without the sem blance of a title. How delightful It would be to the visitor, to rjde through the great Umatilla wheat belt and find the homes of our citizens so reverenced and loved, as to be named as sweetly as the twins and tho shepherd dog. Name the farms with' out delay. Moody a Delegate. It Is stated on good authority that Hon. Malcolm A.

Clopton, of tho sower commltteo, made his report nnd recommended that a special election- be held for the voters to decide whether or not a 30,000 bond bo voted by tho city for a seworago sys tem. City Attorney C H. Carter was In structed to drnw up tho necessary pa pers preparatory to tho election and report nt tho noxt council meeting Then the dato for tho special election will bo set, probably In December. It Is thought that $30,000 will bo amplo for 'he purpoao of Installing a sower system. It has been decided by tho city that a now system should bo Installed nnd the council was unanimous In Baying that tho sooner this was done tho better for the town and those who owned property here. The $30,000 bonds. If voted by tho citizens, will draw Interest of not more than 5 per cent. Tho time Is coming when tho prin cipal streets will have to b'o paved or macadamized. If this Is done bo fore the sower pipes are put In, It would bo necessary to tear up the paved streets In many places to al low the excavating for tho sower and this would not only make the laying of the sower more difficult, but' would add many dollars to the cost of again repairing tho streets, If the sower pipes arc laid first, then when the streets arc paved the work will be completed. Little other huslness was transact ed by the council other than tho al lowing of the following hills: Mat Carney, $2; W. J. Clarke & Co $3.75; Pendleton .Machine Shops, 50c; O. B.

Strawberries in tho market on tho 5th day of November and the mercury clown to the 30 mark, with heavy frosts and tho ground frozen would be a revelation to many people liv ing in less favorable climes than Uma tilla county. Nevertheless, this is just what was seen in Pendleton Wednesday. F. S Younger & Son had several crates of these delicacies. They were grown on tho Weston mountain and aro tho second crop from the same vines This last statement would also bo de nled by people who are not familiar with the Oregon climate. To say that sirawnernes will blossom and grow nno rruit early in the spring and re peat the same thing in tho fall, mnk Ing two crops a year, can hardly bo ueneveu Dy tnoso wno have not seen it actually occur. These strawberries, although out of season, aro just as fine as can be found In any country at any time of year. They have grown to large size ana matured well. !
