THIU'IY-TWO HOUSES RUNAWAY Mrclilno and Several Animals Were Duir.ngctf. J. I. Joy of the threshing firm of Joy Si Stanton, was In town today and while here told of an exciting combine runaway which they had near Helix several days ago. Thee were 32 horses hitched to the machine, and at the time of the run away the machine was at work and the horses became frightened at the noise made by '.he patent hitches that were In use. The entire 32 head got beyond control of the driver and ran for 200 yards before they finally "piled" In a small canyon. At the outcome of the runaway the machine was found to have been bad ly damaged, while several of the best horses were considerably Injured. Herbert Ruppe the high school student, was tending separator on the machine. During the runaway the driver held to his high seat, and though he was In grove danger came out with no In jury. Had be been Jolted from his seat it wculd have meant death, as tho would doubtless have been crushed by the machine. PERSONAL MENTION NO PAVING INJUNCTION. Dan .1. Malarky Hero for Ploiwiire, Noi for Warfare. The presence In the city today of Pan J. Malarky, who Is an attorney for the Barber Asphalt company, caused n suspicion for a time that he was here to secure an Injunction to prevent the Warren company from carrying out Its paving contract. However, the rumor was found to be unfounded as the Multnomah sen ator's mission in Pendleton proved to be one of pleasure Instead of warfare. To City Attorney John McCourt he stated that he was not here to secure an injunction and thnt no efforts In thnt direction were to be taken by the Barber people. Mr. Malarky Is here for the purpose of visiting the Cunningham ranch, where his boy Is now staying. Cuiuula Will IYcl England. Senator Perley, a pioneer farmer of the Canadian northwest, who last year said that within n decade the Do minion would produce sufficient wheat annually to feed all the people of the British isles, now declares at Ottawa that this will be accomplished within the next five years. The size of this task Is evident by the state ment that the United Kingdom buys yearly about 60,000,000 hundredweight of wheat and 20,000.000 hundred weight of wheat flour. The Canadian statistics show exports of $21,759,823 home-grown wheat nnd $2,744,153 wheat flour to Great Britain for the nine months ending March 31. The British statistics show much less wheat received from Canadu. J. L. Scale Very 111. J. I Scales, the well known nlonper Is critically 111 today, and owing to his iiiivHiicea age, years.

He was well pleased with what he saw and, wilt U-ave In a few days for northern Wyoming to Investigate other districts In that section. Although his plans have not been fully decided upon It Is very probable that he will pick out some desirable district In the slate and Induce Cath olic farmers from the east to settle In this state. Wyoming has hundreds of thousands i f acres, which can ba made to blossom ah the rose with arti ficial irrigation, and once under water these lands are worth as much If not more than lie best farm lands In east ern states.

We're going to move PRINK PRICES DROP. Price Is Now Hut 1 ', Cents Again 2', Last Year. A special to the Oregonlan from Salem, Ore., says: Step by step, the prune market in Oregon has dropped down from a 2 'A -cent basis early In the scuson to a 114 -cent hnsls now. Whether the bottom price has been reached Is a question upon which opinions differ and which will prob ably be determined chiefly by the course growers pursue In selling. East em Jobbers are confident that the price will be no higher, and some of them assert that it will i-n . fore the crop is marketed. The prices quoted are those paid to growers. Packers get one-half cent more. Early sales of the AVillamette Valley Prune association were made at as high as 2 cents, or 214 cents for the grower and at this price and a quar ter of a cent less, about 4 0 cars were disposed of by the association for Oc tober nnd November shipment. Be tween this figure and the presnt price about half the Oregon crop has been sold nnd the market seems now to be ramer inactive. Home sales are being mane, uut growers who did not sell at the higher prices seem disposed to wait now for further developments. DESECRATED INDIAN GRAVES.

Word has been received at Chema wa that more than 40 Indian graves have been desecrated in South Salem, Oregon, In the vicinity of Harbor, In Curry county, by parties searching for Indian money and relics. Sonie of the bodies dug up had not been burled more than a year ami a half. The re mains were scattered over the ground and left for the dogs and coyotes to devour. The Indians are very indignant ovei the matter and have appealed to Su perlntendent Frank Kgsclkn, the agent of the Hoopa reservation, who has general supervision over the 111 dlans of that neighborhood. If the federal authorities will take a hand In this It may go hard with the ghouls. Four persons have been urrested by the local authorities on Information made, but the officials are very Indifferent concerning the matter and not much is expected to come of the arrests. AT KOEPPENS' . FOUND CATHOLIC COLONY. Bishop Kruno, of Wyoming, Seeking for IwatloiiK. Bishop J. J.

SH-culutors Tolled In Attempt to Use Blue Mountain Reserve School Sections- its Base Only the State Can Use School Laud Base Speculators Now Huve $1,0(10.0(10 Worth of Raw Ijind for Kule. lost to the owners they are probably sick of their bargains. It would be possible, then, for the state to have the certificates of pur chase surendered to the state. By refunding the payments made thereon which would leave the state the orig inal owner of the lands and entitled to use them as base. The state land department, however, has no power under the law to take such step, so the only way to do It will be for the legislature to pass an act authorizing It and the matter will be brought to the attention of the next assembly with that end In view. The state of Oregon Is the loser to the extent of over a million dollars by the advance knowledge obtained by speculators in school lands, of the Intention of the government to estab lish the Blue mountain forest reserve. The reserve embraces altogether about 175 townships nnd In each of those townships nre two school sec tion1; 16 and 38 which means 224,- 000 acres. Tending the final decision of the government to create the reserve, the speculators who possessed Inside knowledge had filed applications with the siate land department for the pur chase of perhaps 10 per cent of the school lands at $1.25 an acre, the ex pectation being that as soon as tho .reserve should be proclaimed they would have the option of holding the lands or losing them ns a base for se lection somewhere else. In this calculation hey were mis taken. The rlsht to use such lands as base was taken Away from private owners and Is now enjoyed by the state only, so that the scheming avar ice of the fellow with the "tip" is that far circumvented. Previous to the regulations sur rounding this reserve the Individual had the same right as the state to use reserve school sections ns base for se lections elsewhere, with the additional privilege In favor of the Individual that he could select lieu lands In any state in which he could find public lands, while the state was confined to its own terltory. In this instance the state would have the best of It were It still the owner of any large propoitlon of Its 350 sec tions of land, but unfortunately there Is only about 10 per cent of it left. The state could dispose of practically every acre of It at $7 an acre as base, whuh would make a net gain to the school fund of over $1,000,000. There Is n way In which It Is pos sible to make the greater portion of this good to the state. The speculators did net want the school sections In that reserve for the lands they con tained, nine-tenths of them being worthless for practical purposes, hence with the power of using them as base Miss Lydla Potter was thrown from u horse near Eugene, and her skull and right arm broken. She Is un conscious and in a serious condition. WORK WU. 5 STAND PHI PENDLETON INSTITUTION GUAR ANTEES TO DEI-END ITS CUS TOMERS AGAINST CALIFORNIA FIRM. Pendleton, Or., August 4, 1909.
