THE MANY AXD DIVERSE
EXPERIENCES OF KVXEY.
Old Commercial Man Now a Member
of the Oregon Legtslatare Has
Traveled Over a Large Part of the
English Speaking World Went
Broke In Kansas In the Hotel Bus

Mr. Kuney Denies That He Is a
Politician.
county. C. C. Kuney was the result
of their choice, and he was elected.
Mr. Kuney denies that he Is a pol
itician and disclaims any knowledge
of affairs political In his district at
present. However, he says that al
though he supported Mr. Moody
u gal i) st Congressman Williamson, he
has much sympathy for the convicted
representative, and does not regard
him In the same light as the other
land thieves. However, for Senator
Mitchell he has no feeling of sorrow,
because he believes that the long ca
reer of that senator has not been good
for the state of Oregon, and that he
was probably convicted for one of his
Ifsser crimes.
From here Mr. Kuney will leave for
Ontario, where he Intends looking over
some of the Irrigated land In that sec
tlon.
C. C. Kuney, Join representative In
the legislature from Sherman, Gilliam
and Wheeler counties, arrived here
last evening from Salem, where he
has been living during the winter. To
day he has been visiting acquaintan
ces, and among others, called upon
the local members of the legislature.
An Interesting life Is that which has
been followed by Representative Ku
ney. Raised in the east he began lif
as a traveling salesman, and followed
the road for 13 years, during which
time he made nearly every portion of
the United States and traveled through
this section of Oregon before the rail
road was built. At that time he was
traveling for a machinery firm, and
on one of his trips to Pendleton the
stage upon which he was riding was
held up In the Blue mountains.
Aside from traveling In the United
States Mr. Kuney also made trips to
New Zealand and other south sea
Islands, and placed American made
machinery In those countries. ,
On leaving the road he went Into
the hotel business In Kansas, where
he invested til. 000 In a hostelry and
came out with (129.50 some time later.
Thereupon he went upon the road
again and afterwards purchased a
farm in Marlon county, for which he
did not secure a valid deed, and after
losing the place came out $3000 In
debt besides. However, he has met
with better success In Sherman coun
ty, where he has now lived for many
years, and where he Is ranked as one
of the substantial men of the county.
His land In that county has now be
come of such value as to make him
comfortably situated, and to allow of
his making his home in Salem during
the winter months.
Two years ago, when the district
nominations were being made at the
republican convention In Portland, the
delegates from Gilliam and Wheeler
counties were Moody supporters while
those from Sherman were allied with
the Williamson forces. As a result.
It became Incumbent upon the dele
gates from the two former counties to
do the unusual thing of selecting the
man from Sherman county for the leg
islative ticket, there being one mem
ber of the legislature allowed to each
WRECK DELAYS TRAINS.
Short Line Freight Trains Meet Head
on Near Border, Wyoming.
Just as the close of the Lewis and
Clark fair gave railroads a chance to
run trains on time again, the Short
Line interferes with Its regular freight
wreck and delays all trains from two
to 10 hours each.
Monday night at Border, a Bmall
station on the line between Idaho and
Wyoming, two Short Line freight
trains met head-on, demolishing the
engines, killing two tramps and fa
tally Injuring an engineer and brake
man. The trains met in a curve and were
running about 30 miles an hour. A
misunderstanding of orders caused the
wreck.
As a result trains Xos. 1 and 5, on
the O. R. & X. are seriously delayed.
No. 5 of yesterday arrived at 10 o'clock
and No. 1 at 3 p. m. No. D of last
night passed at 6 o'clock this morn
ing and Xo. 1 of today passed through
at 3 o'clock this afternoon.

IX FRAZIER'S CORRALi.
Tills Fact Was Developed In Uh Fu.
moua "Bay Mare Mule Case" From
Echo, After Mr. Frazicr's Nome,
OcctiiNition mid Place of Residence
Were Established In Regard to
Brand Altera ting Mr. Frazlcr Could
Only Tell From Judgment, Xot Experience.
Some Interesting testimony was
given this afternoon In the famous
Echo mule case, which Is being tried
in the circuit court, and which hue
attracted almost as much attention as
Uncle Si's Maud.
Shortly before noon Frank Frazlcr,
the well known horse trainer, was
placed on the stand by Attorney John
McCourt and questioned regarding the
possibilities of changing brands on a
mule or horse, and also In regard to
the probable age of the brand on the
particular "bay mare mule" Involved
in the suit. According to previous
evidence a JT brand on the mule had
been changed to W or vice versa, and
Mr. Frazier enlightened the Jury as to
how such work might be done.
Following the examination Judge
Fee took the witness for cross-examination
and after Inquiring his name
and his residence, which questions
the witness seemed to regard as su
perfluous, he asked Mr. Frazier on
what range he was running horses.
This the latter denied doing and said
that he kept his horses In a pasture.
As to the speed of his animals he said
that they were "mixed, some being
fast and some not so much so." How
ever, they were admitted to be high
bred animals and that he did not
brand them. As to his experience
with branded stock it wns developed
that the witness had run sheep on
the Touchet many years ago, and that
there was a corral and a public water
ing place on his ranch,
"Did you ever change any brands
there or see any such work done?"
asked Judge Fee.
"Xo," replied Mr. Frazier, "they
didn't do such things In that corral."
Several other questions along the
same line from Judge Fee brought em
phatic denials from the witness, who
said that what he knew of how
brands might be changed was from
"Judgment, and not experience."
now anxious to dispose of the fat stuff
and the wet weather Is unfavorable
to further feeding so hogs are plenti
ful on the local market, this week,
for once during tho season.
Several hundred pigs and feeders
have been bought In the south part
of the county by Pendleton butchers
during the past two weeks. The pre
vailing price for pigs has been from
33.50 to 33 for pigs weighing from
'ii to 40 pounds. A large amount of
this kind of stuff has changed hands
in the past 10 days and several butch
ers have secured a handsome supply
of future porkers, by taking pigs of
this size at almost any price.
In many parts of tho county fat
hogs have been worth their weight In
gold almost, and It has been veryTtlf
flcult to supply the local demands
with the fat stuff produced here.

LEADING DRUGGISTS.
Deceased Was an Old Resident of Pen
dleton, and later of New Jersey.
Word has been received here of the
death of E. E. Farrow at Barnegat
Park. N. J., on last Friday, October
20. The deceased was formerly a res
ident of Pendleton, and Is well known
to old residents. While here he was
deputy county clerk for a time, and
also ran an abstract business. He was
married to a sister of Mrs. T. B. Mor
gan, and was a cousin of C. S. Jack
son. He left Pendleton about IS years
ago to return east.
DESTRUCTIVE TO BUSINESS.
Three Plain Drunks.
In the police court this morning
Jim Bad roads and Tllllquats were
each sentenced to five days In Jail for
for being drunk. Tom Balcom, the
only other offender, was given double
that sentence. On being asked If he
were guilty of the charge against him
the prisoner said he was no drunker
w hen arrested than he was then. How
ever. Judge Fltz Gerald was not Im
pressed with Balcom s argument, as
he had seen the officers taking him to
Jail, and he gave him the 10 days
sentence as an Incentive to be more
truthful in court the next time.
High Rcntul Turns Prospective Pur
cluvscr Elsewhere.
The following account of an inci
dent which occurred here but a day
or two ago shows the way in which
the exorbitant rents on Main street,
caused by the saloon demand for lo
cations, tend to keep other business
off that street.
A. A. Quatermass and wife, of Albl
on. N. Y., came here a few days ago
after having sold their property In
that state for $20,000. They were de
sirous of going into the confectionery
business, and while here negotiated
with Mr. Irwin for the purchase of
the Delta. The location and the busi
ness was all that could have been de
sired by the Intended buyer, and he
said the terms were satisfactory to
him. However, when he learned that
the rent for the rooms was $65 per
month he dropped the deal, saylug
that such was entirely too high for
the business. Consequently he has
gone on to Portland In hopes of find
ing a suitable opening there. How
ever, he may yet decide to return to
Pendleton to live.
Popular Company Will Piny
Nights ut lliu Frawr.
One of the really good things that is
promised Pendleton theatergoers In
the near future Is the "Zlnn Travesty
company," In a repertolr of operettas
and extravaganzas.
The company will play five nights
in Pendleton, beginning Sunday. Oc
tober !'). and will play a different
piece each night. They are highly
spoken of by the press of each city
they have visited and are sure to
please those who attend their perform
ance. The llaker City Herald says of
the company:
Zlnn's Comic Opera & Travesty Co,
the pony ballet and the dancing girls
have caught on all right In Maker
City and made good before a crowded
house last night. The Zlnns are the
people who can deliver the goods with
three men on bases. The dances by
Venlta are alone worth the price of
admission and oyster supper follow
log. If you like this sort of comic
opera you will be In front of the spot
light every night and If you have never
yet found It to your taste you should
go so as to get the habit, for the Zlnns
serve It up In a style entirely their
own, and erstwhile captivating and
entertaining. Last night was the
"Jolly Musketeers" and tonight will be
"A Courtship In Japan." If you love
scintillating colors, dream glides,
sparkles of Jewels in the file light, the
sweeping folds of yards of drapery,
you must see the dances to realize
what music and poetry Is In them.

INDIAN'S XOT EXEMPT.
All Allotted Indluns Must Have License
to Hunt and Fish.
In tho case of the state of Idaho vs.
Joseph Peterson, an Indian, charged
with fishing on the reservation without
si license, the defendant was found
guilty by the court, says the Lcwlston
Tribune. It was contended by the de
fense that the right to hunt and fish
on the reservation waB reserved to In
dians In the treaties or agreements
with the United States.
The prosecution held that the agree
ment of 1893, opening the reservation,
made no reference to hunting or fish
ing and none of the treaties formerly
made with the Nez Perce Indians
made any provision reserving the
right to hunt or fish on lands claimed
by them. Prior to the allottment of
lands and the opening of the reserva
tions, the Indians had the exclusive
right to hunt and fish thereon. Since
the allotments have been made, the
Indians are citizens of the United
States and of tho state of Idaho, and
are amenable to Its laws. The state
requires a license to hunt and fish.
and Indians will have to secure it or
suffer the consequences.
