ing, lielegates will be sent from each

ly to secure a uniform schedule of

net mean any radical advance in

uniformity.
MIST STAMP OIJ JEWELHY.
Public and lloiicwt Dealers Hmcflted
by N'ew Law.
Royal M. Sawtelle has received no
tice from the National Jewelers'
board of New York, of the passage of
the silver and gold stamping act by
the last session of congress.
The provisions of this law are such
that It will work almost a revolution
In the Jewelry business and will be
highly beneficial to the public, and
also a protection to honest dealers.
The new law requires that all gold
Jewelry be stamped with the particu
lar fineness of the metal, and that all
silver so used be designated as
"sterling," or "coin." The latter has
been done for some time, and so the
clause regarding silver will have lit
tle effect However, manufacturers
have never been required to stamp
gold articles, and as a result the
public has had to rely entirely on the
Integrity of the Jewelers when pur
chasing goods made from that metal.
In the past New York has been the
only state prohibiting manufacturers
from stamping gold Jewelry as finer
than It really is, so there has been
abundant opportunity for fraud In the
othpr slRleS.
The new law has been approved by
the president, but will not' go Into ef
fect until next July.

VALIE OP IXDIAV TRADE.
One Thousand Dollars' Worth of Sud
dies at Ono Hlteti Hack Tills After
noon.
Tied to one hitch rack In Pendleton
this afternoon were 31 Indian ponies
each having a good saddle upon It, the
saddles and bridles upon each horse
being worth from $30 to $35.
At this one hitch rack were saddles
to the value of over 11000 sold by
Pendleton dealers to the Indians, and
this was a dull day for Indians, be
sides. A large percentage of the sad
dies were new showing that most of
the Indians had recently invested.
At another hitch rack were five or
six teams hitched to buggies and
hacks, another demonstration of the
value of the Indian trade to Pendle

DI LL IX WHEAT MARKET.
Drop pf a Cent Causes the Purmers
to Hold On,
There has been little doing In the
local wheat market for several days
past, and the decline of one cent w hich
occurred yesterday has made the
market even duller than before. In
speaking of yesterday's decline E. W.
McComas said:
"While wheat was 5S cents many
were preparing to sell, and there was
prospect for an active market. Rut
the drop of a cent has changed the
situation, and few are now willing to
let go of their yields at 57 cents."

HAD HIMSELF IJLACKL1STED.
I'lifoitunule Making a Desperate Ef
fort to Reform.
That all who became degraded
through the evils of drunkenness do
not wish to remain down was shown
by a case which occurred In this city
yesterday. At the morning session .of
police court the only prisoner was a
man under middle age and whose
name need not be given. He had been
thrown In for being drunk and he
had the remorseful feeling common
on the "morning after." The feeling
was further strengthened by a visit
from :i woman, doubtless a wife, or
sister, Just after the court session.
As a result of his reflections the
man decided to cut out the flowlm;
bowl in the future and to aid him in
his resolve he asked Chief of Police
Waters to blacklist him. Consequent
ly the officer and the fellow visited
all of the local saloons yesterday -Und
at each place notice was given by thq
chief that no more liquor should be
sold to the drunkard, or arrests would
follow.
Today the prisoner of yesterday has
been walking, the streets a sober man
for the present, at least.
