T. W. Lusk Returns From a
Through the Interior.
T; W. Lusk, who resided for 20
j ears In the Ukiah locality, but who
ic at present located at La Grande,
returned to this city last night from
an extended trip through the Interior
of Eastern Oregon.
Mr. Lusk reports the roads in fair
coudltion as far south as Susanvllle.
Stock is In good condition and feed s
plentiful. Mr. Lusk reports an unpre
cedented settlement throughout East
ern Oregon during the past six
months.
' He Is engaged In the land and tim
ber business and has had occasion to
visit many of the most remote cor
ners of this section of the state and
finds new settlers constantly locating
on all the available lands of the great
mountain regions.
Recently he visited the country ly
ing between the Wallowa valley and
the Washington state line, where he
was surprised to And many new loca
tions. This has been considered one
of the wildest sections of country left
In Oregon, but the settler has invaded
this domain and roads are being built
through tho canyons and forests to
the outside world.
tion, writes H. J. Stlllman that the
Pendleton shoot Is attracting tho at
tention of sportsmen from all over
the Northwest, and beyond any ques
tion, the attendance will bo large from
other points. The membership of tho
Pendleton club, which Is now between
PO and 100, will have Its hands full
to properly entertain and arranco foi
tho visitors. The buildings out at tho
range are being gono over In readi
ness for the event, and In addition,
quite a number of commodious tents
will be provided for tho accommoda
tion of the refreshment booths, and
tho secretary's office will also be in
a tent. The latest phase or develop
ment of tho tournament Is a sorics of
prizes offered for the best exhibition
ot shooting by lady contestants. First,
Becond and third prizes are offered as
follows: Five dollars for tho first, by
Frank Frazler; 2.50 for tho second
best score Is offered by the locan man
ager of the Coe Commission Co., nnd
$1 for the third prlzo, offered by N. T.
Conklin. W. W. Hoch will furnish
tho targets, nnd N. E. Mosser, travel
ing passenger and ticket agent for tho
Great Northern, will furnish tho shells.
It is proposed that the association
furnish the guns used by tho ladies,
and this proposition will probably not
be dissented to by any member.
Little Wheat Left.
Ei W. McComas, the grain buyer, es
timates that of last year's crop of
3,500,000 bushels or wheat in this
county that not over a quarter million
bushels remain in the hands of tho
farmers of the county. As a rule It is
held by well-to-do men who are hold
ing It for C5 cents per bushel, which
fipure seems to' be tho acme of ex
ptctation. General indications point
tv a strong market, though, as Mr.
McComas cays, "If wo all knew just
what the market would go up to,
there would bo no question about
everyone becoming rich."
Brick From La Grande.
William Roesch has purchased at
La Grande, brick enough to go ahead
with the construction of the new
biewery for which he could not se
cure the material from Weston before
May 15, In a quantity sufficient to fin
ish it. The inability of the Weston
ards to meet the demand for brick
h causing the delay in the construc
tion ot a number of buildings in this
tributary to Weston 1s aB gieat as at
Pendleton, why Is not the yard's ca
pacity enlarged to meet the demands
upon it?
