EIGHT IVndloIon ln-sbytery, Formed of the Counties of Unmtllla, Wuco, Wliee lor, Crook ami Part of Grant, "Was Ci-cntiil liy Action or this Eastern Oregon Presbytery HI Enterprise Pendleton Academy Eittliiilnstlciil ly Supported Good Prospects Are Aheml of the Institution. Revs, n. F. Harper, H. J. Dlven and W. L. Van Nuys linve returned from presbytery tit Enterprise. Wallowa cuunty, fatigued with the long stage ride, but rejoicing over the enthusiasm and other evidences of a prosperous besslon, and the warm welcome ex tended by the people of Enterprise. The most Important feature of the presbytery was the resolution to di vide the Eastern Oregon presbytery, which now consists of every county oust of the Cascades, except Lake and Klamath. The Inconvenience of handling the affairs of the church through such a geographically cum brous organization has become for midable, and hence this step by the presbytery, which only needs ratifi cation by the synod, which meets at Portland about October 10. to be an accomplished fact. The division wilt be made along the crest of the Blue mountains from the state line southward until Grant county Is reached. A portion of Grant county will be In this and a portion In the other presbytery, and It will be the only county not entirely In one or the other. Grand Hondo presbytery will con sist of Harney, Malheur, Baker, Un ion. Wallowa und a portion of Grant counties. Pendleton presbytery will comprise Umatilla county, a portion of Grant Wnsco, Wheeler, Crook, and In fact, till of the rest of the territory east of the Cascades not Included In the urand Itonde presbytery and Lake und Klamath counties. This division will render necessary a revision of the articles of incorpora tion of Pendleton academy, but by no premises a division of loyalty to it. In fact, the loyalty to Pendleton acad emy was never so pronounced as at this session of the presbytery, and It was expressed by ministers and lay members alike. U. a. Couch, editor of the Wallowa News, claims thnt the academy has a fruitful but almost untouched field In Wallowa county, and expressed the greatest confidence In the present head of the Institution, clalmug that the entire county shared In that feeling. Wullowa and Union counties will next year send sovernl students to the academy who have never attended before, and from all parts of the presbytery come news of a great re vival of Interest In the Institution. There Is a new minister at La Grande Dev. E. P.. Hayes, late of Placervllle. Cal., who will be Installed November 6. HACK I'llOM BOISE. r. c and .loll Ilalley, Jr., Attended a Happy Family Iti'ttnlou. Attorney T. G. Ilalley and United States Court Commissioner John Hal ley, Jr., returned last night from Holse where they visited their father and mother and other relatives. T. G. Halley spent one day at the Ontario convention. "Wo neld a sort of family reunion last Sunday." said John Halley. "and there were IS members of the tribe of Hully who sat down to dinner. All the members of our Immediate fam ily, with the exception of my young est brother, were present." Mr. Halley says the fruit crop In the Holse country Is exceptionally large this year. "Huslness," he con tinued. "Is very good and there Is a large amount of building going on." FIGHTING 1 T iT FORMALIN BOTH ANKLES FRACTURED. Viloi Farmer Foil 20 Feet and I.lt on MU Feet.

Walker was Injured Monday I Isfactory; while vitriol was used afternoon by the overturning of a load of hay. He was coming down a steep grade when the accident occur red. Walker was thrown from the wag en and landed on his feet In the rocks 20 feet away. Had he struck on his head. It Is thought he would have suffered fatal injuries.

Moes ClirNtensen, Goicrnmcnt Fur liter on Umatilla Iteerviitlon, Gives Sure Itemedy for Killing Smut SiMires In Seed Wheat Increase or This Damaging Pest In Umatilla County Demands Quick Action Formula Suggested by an Expert eneed limner. Owing to the large amount of fire loss to Unmtllla county threshing ma chines and harvesters this year, caus ed by spontaneous combustion of smut dust, leading farmers are now studying means of killing the smut germ In seed wheat. Among the most practical agriculturists of the Northwest Is Moses Chrlstensen, fanner on the Umatilla reservation, who has made a long study of this subject and who contributes the fol lowing short formula for the benefit of Unmtllla farmers. Umatilla Indian School, Sept. 19. (To the Editor.) I suppose by the amount of blue vitriol being placed on sale at Pendleton, that the farm ers In this section vitriol wheat to kilt smut. Here Is an effective remedy: Mix thoroughly with 50 gallons of water on pound of formalin; Immerse the grain In the liquid, letting it remain 10 minutes. The above solution was used on both wheat and oats that wus black with smut spores, by the experiment Station of Utah, and was entirely Bat on grain of the same kind with unsatis factory results. Formaline can be procured from any druggist. MOSES CHUISTENSEN, Farmer UmAtllla Indian School, the higher altitudes are not so well adapted for the raising of grain. It Is with hay that we hope to succeed, "A great deal of hay Is sold to the government, which desires only timo thy of the finest grade. Most of the farmers sell their product to n Wes ton dealer Who disposes of It to out side markets, "Weston mountain fruit this year In very plentiful. The berry crop Is al ways later than In the valley and as a result the mountaineer gardener en Joys 'a brisk trade after the lowlan der's market Is ended." LACK OF EVIDENCE. Who Can Proe That "Skipper" lllcks Fired the Pistol? The charge of discharging fire arms within the ctiy limits, which Is pending against "Skipper" Hicks, may not be tried until after he has served the two sentences of 10 days each, which were Imposed upon him Monday afternoon. There appears to be a lack of sufficient evidence to prove that Hicks really fired a pis tol. Persons saw him standing in the room with a pistol In his hands Im mediately after the shooting, but on the ground beneath the window was a second gun, and Mike Gratz. Jr.. declares one of the weapons Is his. Just which one fired the gun Is not known.

What is a Savings Account? THE USE of a Savings account Is not fully understood. It is a banking feature that does more service to a community that can readily be ap preciated. In every community, there nre numbers of people who have small sums and no means of using them to advantage. The Savings Department of this bank affords the means of utilizing these funds. One man has JB, another J50, another more, another less. These sums when placed together In a bank can be loaned out so as to pay Interest. The Savings De partment is the means of getting these small sums to gether and loaning them out safely. There are many peo ple who would be pleased to receWe Interest on their money for a short time. The Commercial National Bank Is the only Institu tion in this city which provides strictly for the receipt and care of savings and trust funds. Interest paid on all such accounts at the rate of Four Per Cent per Annum for each calendar month that the money remains in bank. Deposits made on or before the 4th of a month draw In terest from the first of that month. Interest Is credited on nil accounts February and August 1st, at which times, If not drawn, It becomes part of tho principal. Any part of a deposit may bo withdrawn without disturbing Interest on tho balance. Certificates of deposit are issued bearing Interest at the following rates: Certificates Pajablo In 0 months, -1 per cent. J Safety dcjioslt boxes for rent. . Don't overlook tho fact that wo are J a National Bank, under tho direct supervision of the ment.
