CHt WHOLESOME
CRESCENT
Theodore Itoosevolt, president of
tho United States, was honored
again last night when about 100 of
the young men of tuts city organized
tho Itoosevelt Republican Club of
Pendleton.
Hoy W. Rltner was selected by the
members of "the organization to fill
the presidential chair, L. G. Frazler
was elected vice president, J. H.
Gwinn secretary, and Frank J. Slacey
treasurer.
The constitution and by-laws were
reported by a committee which has
for the past two weeks been nt work
on them, and tho organization was
made permanent.
It was decided to meet hereafter
on the second and fourth Thursdays
in each month until such time as the
work of tho club shall havo been
done and the success of tho reunited
party be a matter of history.
Special programs will be arranged
for tho meetings of the club, well
known nnd entertaining speakers
will bo secured, and the sessions will
bo both Interesting, instructive nnd
beneficial.
J. H. Gwinn, F. J. Macey and
Charles W. Myers wore appointed as
a committee who will at once com
mence to swell tho membership until
It takes In every republican In tho
city nnd vicinity over the age of IS
years. There will be no limit to the
maximum age.
Tho war-cry and trumpet-call of the
ciuo will ho harmony. It will rep
resent no faction, have no tendency,
acknowledge no leader except tho
great principle of the party. The or
ganization will not submit to the dic
tates of faction cramped bosses, or
pledge Itself to tho support of fac
tional seekers after nomination to
county, state or national 'offices. It
will follow tho example of tho state
convention and sow up the wounds
and heal .ho strife in the party In
this part of the stnte. Such Is the
plan as outlined by the managers of
the club, which will make Its first ap
pearance as an ontortnlner and In
structor at tho court house on tho
evening of March 21, when an elab
orate program will bo presented,
with music by the club quartet and
speeches by some of the republican
speakers of tho county who do not
represent one faction or tho other.
HABEAS CORPUS FILED.
Invoked to Secure the Release of
Deserter Who Did Not Legally En
list.
An action In habeas corpus was
filed in tho circuit court yesterday
afternoon and was argued this after
noon before Judge Ellis. Tho suit
was brought by William Shorbtirn
the father of Henry Joseph Shcrburn
asking that T. D. Taylor as sheriff
of this county, bo compelled to bring
Henry Shcrburn before tho court nnd
show cnuso why the boy should not
ho sot freo.
Henry Shorburn, it Is claimed, is
deserter from tho regular nrmy at
Walla Walla, and has been arrested
by the sheriff and Is being held un
der instructions from Walla Walla
until such a tlmo as an officer can
reach tho city from that place and
take tho prisoner to tho fort.
The petitioner in his request states
that tho prisoner Is not being held
under a service or process from any
court, cither federal or state, that no
charge has been preferred against
him In any legal body, and that he Is
Illegally detained. Tho complaint
further alleges that tho son is hut 19
years of ago and that tho consent of
tho parents to his enlistment In tho
army has nover been given, and that
he Is thus not of right enlisted, and
therefore cannot of right bo a tie.

APPRAISERS APPOINTED.
Will Look After Apportionment of
Wade Estate Among Creditors.
Judge Fltz Gerald yesterday ap
pointed Thomas Thompson, George
Perrlnger and Lee Moorhouse as ap
praisers of the estate of C. B. Wade.
Tho men will make an Inventory of
tho estate as soon as possible and re
port to tho court of bankruptcy.
Their report will then bo audited,
and If correct tho disposal of the
estate for division among tho credit
ors will he made as soon as tho nec
essary sales can bo made.
Tho board of appraisers was aiv
pointed ns it was, for tho reason that
tho men on It wore not In any way
connected with the estate. Neither
were thoy interested In tho bank.
They aro, therefore, In a position to
act in a perfectly impartial manner
in the appraisement.

i H. Gwinn Receives Letters From
All the Prominent Wool Men Who
Have Attended Former Sales.
J. H. Gwinn, secretary of tho Ore
gon Woolgrowors' Association, Is In
receipt of letters from all tho promi
nent buyers who have nttendeu for
mer wool sales In this city, and they
all Inquire as to tho prospects for
the wool clip in tills county this
year. '
It is evident that all the former
buyers will be on the ground with
several now faces, attracted by tho
excellence of tho Umatilla clip.
George W. Abbott, of Koston, the
buyer who hail the luisfortuno to
break his leg on tho depot platform
at The Dalles, last year, whllo at
tending tho wool sales in Eastern
Oregon, has written to Mr. Gwinn
that ho expects to be present, and in
closing his letter says In regard to
the market prospects:
"As tho situation now Is, wool will
bo sorao lower than last year. The
American Woolen Company, on ac
count of their large production, Is
tho chief factor in making prices for
goods, Thoy havo offered their goods
at less than a year ago.
"If sheep have done woll, growers
may perhaps realize as much per
head as thoy did last year, oven If
prices are lower, as last year's clip
averaged, from one to one and a half
pounds, less per fleece than usual, on
account of the sovere winter and the
scarcity of feed."
Mr. Gwinn has Written letters to
the principal buyers to the effect
that Umatilla county wool will bo of
tin oxtra good quality this year, and
that owing to tho general conditions
of tho market, tho grower hero will
oxpect a good price for his wool nnd
that It might as well bo understood
first as last that tho uhoopmcu were
not scared at tho prospects of alleged
low prices.
