Illinium, the nig showman, anil king of fakirs, who said: "The Ainfr

of some of our competitors to the fact that even the big shows, with
all of their facilities for humbuging, steer clear of Pendleton. Mill
tlplicd yards of banners with their cartoons, rod and yellow paint,
announcing "destruction wiles" (?) etc., etc., do not draw trade In

Golden Utile prices. Golden Hole treatment and dependable goods are
the only things that reach tlio ieople in Pendleton.

which carried no light, and the launch
hit the smaller boat. One man seized
the third occupants of the boat, Ml

aboard. The others on the launeii
were so excited that they allowed the
boat to drift away without attempting
a rescue. The two left In the rowboat

Good Work of County Commissioners
Goes Up in Smoke.
in their efforts to provide good
roads throuKhni. the county the
county commissioners hnve expended
considerable money in putting straw
on the thoroughfares, says the Walla
Walla Statesman.
This act has been the oecnslon of
much praise for the officials from the
farmers and others who are compelled
to travel the roads. Recently, how
ever. It has been discovered thnt In
many places the straw has been
burned off. On one stretch of road
near Walla Walla a farmer reported
today the straw had been burned for
several hundred yards and left the
ground bare and much dust had ac
cumulated. The fact has been reported to the
commissioners and an Investigation is
being made. Whether the burning "f
the straw has been the result or pns
sersby throwing lighted matches on
the road or the work of miscreants, Is
not known.

Baptists Endorse Roast of
Rockefeller.
Springfield, III., Aug. 8. The 1111
nols Baptist assembly, which Is hold
Ing a Chautauqua at the State fair
grounds, amid a scene of excitement
today voted down a set of resolutions
which criticized Governor LaFollette
for his bitter attack upon John D.
Rockefeller last Sunday, when the
Wisconsin statesman vehemently told
the assembled Baptists that their fel
low churchman was the greatest crim
inal of the age.
The defeat of the resolutions fol
lowed the departure of Dr. R. S. Me
Arthur, of New York, who had been
billed to make a reply to LaFollette,
and who surprised his audience by
ttterlnff never a word In defense of
the oil king.
Why Dr. McArthur failed to say
anything on the subject cannot be
learned. This morning a synopsis of
his proposed address was given out,
and in it he bitterly arraigned LaFol
lette for his attack on Rockefeller.
