BUILD 10 WALLOWA
PROMOTER OF THE
JOSEPH RAILWAY SPEAKS.
.1. W. Cook Declares Ho Will Con
struct a Road Into Wallowa Valley
An Immense Amount of Traffic
Ready to lie Shipped.
"My intentions have been Incorrect
ly stated in correspondence from Wal
lowa county to Portland newspapers,"
said J. W. Cook, who is In Portland
on business related to the construction
of a railroad from Elgin to Enterprise
and Joseph by the Wallowa Valley
Railroad company, of which he Is the
rrganlzer, says the Oregon Dally Jour
nal. "I have started in to build this
road, and am going to build it, or
part of It. Should I be beaten in the
curts by the O. R. & N. company on
the right of way now in litigation
and I do not believe I will be I shall
construct the rest of the line through
the Wallowa valley to Joseph."
Mr. Cook says the people of the
Wallowa valley have a country of
splf ndld resources, and great possibil
ities for development, and they have
no transportation facilities aside from
wagons. Annually they haul 40 to 65
miles to the railroad at Elgin vast
iuanti;ies of products. This year 2.-1
BOO. 000 pounds of wool was hauled
over the mountain roads, requiring
six horses to a wagon load.
This season 40.000 sheep have been
brought out. and as many more are
yet to come. There are B0, 000 tons of
good hay that could be marketed by
rail, but the wagon haul makes It cost
SIS a ton. which is a prohibitive cost.
The IS small mills In the Wallowa
timber are annually cutting 20,000,
000 feet of fine yellow pine lumber,
-which has to be hauled on wagons
through the mountains to Elgin,
where It is shipped over the O. R.
A N. to points In Idaho, Utah and Wy
oming. The people of the valley, Mr. Cook
says, are with him almost to a man
In developing his railroad plan, and
have waited long and patiently for the
O. R. & N. company to dJ something,
and It has done nothing. Five years
Vigo It made a preliminary survey, and
under this pretext assumed that It had
possession of a right of way along the
Orand Ronde nnd Wallowa rivers to
Joseph. It has done nothing urther
while the people have continued to
drag their loads of rich products by
means of four and six-horse teams
over the weary mountain roads to be
delivered to the O. R. & N. at Elgin.
Long ago the country was developed
sufficiently to warrant the construc
tion of the railroad line to Joseph.
When the company made Its survey
five years ago there was every reason
for It to proceed with construction

immediately and give tho people tho
needed means of transportation. Mr.
Cook asserts that the people believe
the O. R. & X. will build only a few
miles no further than It Is forced.
It has long been known thnt there
is vast water power in tho Wallowa
and Grand Ronde rivers, and the op
portunities for electric roads In that
country are of the best. Eastern cap
ital Is already interested in the lum
ber and transportation questions
there, and it is a matter of only a
short time when the rich Wallowa
valley will be developed by means of
electric railroad transportation, which
In all probability will be extended to a
connection with the Columbia river,
giving that part of the state independ
ent communication with Portland and
the sea, and securing for It distribu
tive rates based on water competition.
FIGHTING FIRE IX IDAHO.
The Stnte I-and Hoard Assisting Pri
vate Parties.
Lewiston, July 29. Reports receiv
ed from the Clearwater country show
the forest fires are not yet under con
trol. A large force of men is now en
r iute to the district and it is hoped
that within the next few days the fires
will be extinguished. A large num
ber of men passed through Potlatch
Junction yesterday for the Pierce City
country to engage In fighting the
fires and it is expected several parties
will be organized within the next two
days and be hurried Into the timber
country.
Charles J. Jansen, who has been
active in agitating the matter of or
ganizing the timber Interests for the
purpose of fighting the fire, has al
ready the individual holders and the
large number of timber men who arc
willing to contribute to the fund to
send men into the mountains. The
subscription was started here, but was
simultaneously agitated in Spokane,
and other places where timber lands
are owned. The result is that a sub
scription list of about 30 names has
been sent down from Spokane that
will contribute to the amount of $10
each toward the protection fund. In
the Clearwater country and at Ken
drick and Moscow, definite action has
been taken toward fighting the fire,
and It is believed within th i next
few days a sufficiently large force will
be In the fire district to control the
fires.
Up to the present time the fires
have been in the districts owned by
Ue individual holders and the large
tracts of the lumber companies have
not suffered loss. The Weyerhauser
Interests, however, through their
agent, E. X. Brown, have employed a
large force of men and sent them in
to the timber not only to protect their
own timber, but as far as possible to
save the timber belonging to the set
tiers. At the beginning of the fires
Mr. Brown hired 16 men and placed
the same to work In extinguishing the
fires. Since that time he has secur
ed a large number of recruits In the
Clearwater country and has added a
large force from Moscow, which Is
now en route to the Pierce country.
State Land Agent Munson has also
taken an active Interest In the matter
and has secured a large number of
men that will be on the ground to
commence work today. The prompt
action on the part of .Messrs. Brown
and Munson Is responsible for the
fires now being within the possibility
of control.
Dry Farming In Rakrr.
i Baker county can raise dry land
I wheat Just as well as Umatilla coun
I !y, says the Baker City Herald. There
I are thousands of acres around Baker
I City capable of producing large crops
i If only put into wheat. A sample of
j this wheat Is now In the office of O.
i C. Johnson tnd w ill be sent to Port
land. The wheat will average about
40 bushels to the acre and was raised
on the farm of Mr. Ferguson, about
two miles from town. Another sam
ple of oats raised on the dry lands
will also be sent. This grain was
grown on the farm of M. B. Bond,
seven miles north of town.
The Marlon county hop crop has
been badly damaged by lice several
yards so badly as to be a total loss.

ASSAULTED
HIS WIFE
I'D SW1TZLER RAISES DIS-
Tl'RRANCE AT ins HOME.
Resident of Water Stroet Rudely
Awakened by Woman's Scrennis nt
4 A. SI. Well Known Gambler
rnnio Home Drunk and Abuses Ills
Estimable Wife May He Charged
With Wife Renting.
Residents of Water street were
awakened at 4 o'clock this morning
by the screams of a womnn issuing
from tho homo of Ed Swltzler, tho
well known tinhorn gambler, anil bo
fore the neighbors could realize what
was going on, Mrs. Swltzler rushed
out of her home nnd on to the street
closely followed by her husband.
He overtook her In front of tho res
idence of Major Lee Moorhouse, and
In a few seconds all the neighbors In
that vicinity were gathered around
them, and friends were endeavoring
to make Swltzler stop abusing his
wife, who exhibited evory Blgn of ngl-
tntton and fear.
It is alleged that Swltzler came
home from his gambling debauch and
Immediately began abusing his wife
and accusing her! Hor screams and
appeals to him awakened the neigh
bors and the greatest excitement pre
vailed In that vicinity for a few mo
ments. Swltzler was seized by friends and
held until he became quieted, when
he returned to his home. Mrs. Swltz
ler went to the home of T. W. Aycrs,
where she told, with almost breaking
heart, the story of her drunken hus
band's abuse nnd assaults upon her.
Swltzler is one of the leading tin
horns of Pendleton and has been on
a drunk for several days and In his
morose mood has accused his wife,
who is an estimable lady. In the most
disgusting manner.
Mrs. Swltzler has a host of friends
in Pendleton and the sympathy ex
pressed for her Is universal, but little
toleration is shown for her husband.
It is not known today whether divorce
proceedings will be begun or not.
It is possible that a complaint of
wife beating will be lodged against
Swltzler.
Swltzler Not Arrested.
At the time of going to press this
afternoon Swltzler had not yet been
arrested, no complaint having been
made against him before either the
city of state authorities. However, he
has been the subject of much stroug
talk on the streets all during the
day, and there has been a universal
desire expressed that the wife beating
law should be enforced. Under the
law passed at the recent legislature
the penalty for such an offense is Im
prisonment In the county jail from
three months to one year, or 20 lashes
upon the back administered within
the Jail by the sheriff or his deputy.
It is also reported that a divorce
will be sought by Mrs. Swltzler, nod
that papers are being drawn up for
the same today. However, no suit had
been filed up to 3 o'clock this after
noon. BOTH WERE DENIED.
Apparently Because lioth Parties
Proved Their Allegations.
In the divorce suit brought by Edith
M. Davis against James Davis, a de
cree was given this morning by Cir
cuit Judge Kills denying the com
plaint made by the plaintiff, and also
the cross complaint filed by the de
fendant. Xor is either side allowed to
recover costs in the case. '
In the summary of the evidence it
was stated that the allegations of the
plaintiff concerning the Indecency,
profanity and Immorality of the de
fendant, were true; also that the
charges of adultery and other things
made against the plaintiff In tho cross
complaint were true.
NO PRIVILEGE GRANTED.
Cnrnlvnl People unrt City Council
Make No Terms.
At a special meeting of the city
council held at 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon the proposition of the
Southern Carnival company to hold
a street fair here during a week in
August was considered, but evidently
the license to be charged for the
same was such that the showman de
cided not to accept. It was stated
by the recorder that under the ordi
nance $1235 could be charged for the
privilege, but thnt the same might be
lessened by the council. Various sums
were discussed, but the representative
of the company present held out for
a license of $60, and the meeting ad
journed without any privilege being
grnnted.
The monthly salary list for July wns
also read and ordered paid, and like
wise a liquor license granted to F. X.
Schempp.
OLDEST DRCMMER.
N. W. Flalslg Said to Hnvo neon on
tlie Road for Half a Century,

St. George while In tho city today, and
talks entertainingly of his long exper
iences. Hunters' Licenses Issued.
Up to dato 17 hunters' licenses have
been Issued by County Clerk Nlven.
This numbor seems small when Ink
ing Into consideration the fact that
there are no less than 500 guns In the
county and perhaps half that number
of persons who have more or less lo
cal reputation as being crack shots,
and who are often out after big game.
In Baker county nearly 150 licenses
have been Issued and Orant county
sportsmen should emulate the exam
ple set by sportsmen of that county
