Workman on County Bridge Soiled
. With Cramps, Rinks.
Welser, Nov. 19. The first acci
dent on the new state bridge at this
place occurred yesterday. Two men,
Charles Walton and Clyde Baptiste,
were painting the steel work of the
bridge and were sitting on a swing
hung by ropeB, when, it is supposed
the knot slipped and dropped them
into the stream.
Boats were manned at once and
went to the rescue; Walton told the
men to save Baptiste, as he was a
good swimmer and' could take care
o himself. Baptiste was rescued
just as he was sinking for the last
time. Walton was swimming for the
shore, when he was seen to throw up
his hands and with a scream he sunk
end did not rise again.
The supposition is that he was seiz
ed with a cramp, as he was an expert
swimmer. The river is now being
dragged to recover the body, but the
treacherous Snake seldom gives up its
dead.
Walton came here Xrnm Bait Lake
and his parents reside in Bevier, Mo.
His wife is in this city and is an In
valid, and It Is feared the shock will
prove fatal to her.

YEAR'S RECORD
AT ST. ANTHONY'S
Two Hundred Eighty-three Fa
tients Accepted Its Hospital
ity Since Nov 8, 1903.
IIIHTIIS IN THE HOSPITAL.
"Jobbers and commission houses In
the Kant have put up the prices on
Oregon products so high that the
poor people cannot possibly reach
them and consequently the demand
for Oregon tuff -seems to be dull,"
said Elmer F. Cleaver, who has Just
arrived from Muncie, Ind., for a visit
in thia cltr.
Mr. Cleaver has been Kust neurly
two years anB lhaa ibeen a close ob
server of conditions, and especially
conditions that affected western pro
ducts in the sHaatern markets.
"If the producer in Oregon and the
consumer in the East could be
brought together, and could make a
direct exchange It would open up
the greatest market In the world for
Western prodnats, but as It is, such
profits are made on these products
that the consumer cannot afford to
use what he would, were prices with
in reason.
"When I left M-uncle, Ind., a week
ago, Oregon green prunes, of the 80-to-the
pound class, mere selling there
for 26 cents per dosen. The dried
prunerof the best grade were selling
at 20 cents per pound nnd the low
est retail price I saw quoted In that
'City was 7 cots tnef pound, while
the same grade of prunes 1b selling
In -Halem tbday for 1 .cents per
pound and the freight rate on a car
load lot is but one cent per pound.'
"People In the East doaH 'know how
cheap they are at the orcjaauid iln 'Or
egon, and naturally do not attempt
to mac ithem regularly, tteeajHe .of -the
extortionate prices charged by East
ern dealers for them.
The suns condition prevails 'in
Oregon lumber. Poor men In the
Rasrt who would build and (mswove
houses, cannot do so, because of the
high jn-ioes of Western lumber
their markets, while on the Pacific
coast asM lumber Industry has esse
to pieces because of the dull mar
ket "If the producer and consumer
could get together (ind make an ex
change, the market of the East
would afford an inexhaustible de
mand for Western stuff which today
Is a drug on the Western market
People need the products of the West
but the prices are out of reason and
the market is thus handicapped."
' Mr. Cleaver was formerly in bus
ness in this city and has been East
tor nearly two years In the interest
of mining properties tn which he is
largely concerned. His horns Is at
Anderson. Ind., where Mrs. Cleaver is
at present living. He has traveled
extensively In the past two years and
takes every opportunity to speak a
good word for Oregon. His observa
tions are worthy of the highest con
sideration by Oregon produoers.
