Echo, March 22. It was currently reported here last evening that E. Metcalf. who caused a disturbance In the bar at the Hotel Echo last Sun day morning by shooting promiscu ously several times, and Inflicting a slight flesh wound on the person of John Venable, the bartender, has lert the city for parts unknown. He was engaged In n gambling game with Joe Banister of Athena, and others when a dispute arose. The matter was hushed up seemingly, after Ban'ster and Metcalf paid a fine of $30 each, Monday. Later reports showed that further trouble was brewing and that Metcalf might have to face a more serious charge, which Is thought to be the cause of his disappearance. Five carloads of cattle went out from Echo yesterday for the Frye Bruhn company, which were purchas ed from the W. J. Furnish ranch at Butter creek. Three carloads are be ing shipped out today to thj Union Meat company In Portland and three more will go to the Frye-Bruhn com pany today also. About 300 more head will clean up the shipments to be made from this section, with the ex ception of some to go from the Uma . tllla Ranch company. The price be ing received Is J4-50. This has been an excellent year In the cattle mar ket, the only drawback having been In the delay of cars. The wagon road along the railroad has been opened Into Echo, coming through A. L. Esteb's place, costing the city $109, besides some other ex pense. This will be handy for many of the farmers below town. The spring seeding of wheat will be completed in this vicinity In a few days, and the prospects were never better for an excellent wheat crop In this section than they are this year. Crops of all kinds are In excellent con dition. J. E. Taylor has purchased the car penter shop of the Echo Lumber company, and will have it remodeled for a dwelling.

Over 100 school child ren were vaccinated here in a few days' time, and there has been no further spread of the disease. Ilelng Completed. The ditch work on the east Uma tilla project Is nearlng completion through the town, and the blasting is about over In the vicinity of Echo.

I have just received 8 head of fine 3-year-old German Coach Stallions direct from Oldenburg, Germnny. The horses need no advertising; they show for themselves.

There are only eight head of them and they will soon be sold. Got one of these fine stallions and you will have the first German coach stallion in this part of the country.

Information comes from a reliable source that an order has been placed' for stcvl ai-.d ties for the extension of the Chicago and Northwestern from Lander, Wyo., the present western terminus of the road, to St. An thony, Ida., says the Salt Lake Tri bune. This Is but another step to the consummation ct the avowed purpose of the line to find an outlet on the Pacific coast, and It is confidently stated that the objective point Is Coos Pay. With the road built to St. Anthony to which surveys have been complet ed, the next extension will be t to Boise, and from that point It Is claim ed the route io a most direct one to the coast. Last year tho Northwestern was most active In Its work in Wyoming, completing the line from Casper to Lander. While that work was In progress surveys were being carried on to the north into Idaho and now It it Is said the line has been located at R. nthnny. The placing of the nror for nils Is a pre'imlnary to the beginning of grading. Steel factories ae far behind with their orders, so that a considerable time must elapse before the st3el Is delivered, and In thf Interval grading could be well forward.

Many of our readers are unaware of the growth of the broom corn In dustry In this valley; at least six small factories are running, Including that of J. D. Walker in our midst, says the Freewater Times. Mr. Walker has to omport his corn from Oklahoma, but he prefers the product grown In Walla Walla valley. He think the soil and climate here are eminently adapted for the growth of the Industry. It will pay our farmers to Investi gate the proposition, for they can be assured that there is a cash market for every bale produced. It requires but little water and can be grown on high land. WILL LOWER EXPRESS RATE. Denver Business Men Get After the Extortion. Denver, In nddltlon to lower freight rates, will also secure a lower cxprers tariff between the moun tains and New York within a short time, says the Denver News. This Is the opinion of Thomas C. Scott, traf fic manager of the Colorado Manu facturers' association, and it is form ed from replies received In answer to communications sent to the Wells Fargo and United States express companies, asking for a reduction In rates. Poth companies state they are un- 8TOP THE Grey Team and Yellow Wagon AND TRY Alfalfarm Dairy Bottled Milk CLEAN AND PURE PHONE FARMERS M OB UAHf 17. able to give the question of reduc tion consideration at present, be cause they are working night and day to prepare their tariff schedules for the Interstate Commerce commis sion, and have to have them com pleted by May 1. After this time, they give assurance the request will be carefully considered. Scott, figuring on the new freight rate grunted by the roads since the hearing before the Interstate Com merce commission, finds that on the express companies' own percentage basis, the express rate from New York' to Denver should be redured from JS 60 to (7.00, the last named figure being Just the rate which the Colorado Manufacturers' association asks for. BOISE ON MAIN LINE. Trains May Run From Cleft to Nnin- pa Via Bnlc. That the line trains will be run ning through Boise before the end of the summer solstice Is new al most certain, says tho Boise Capital News. The service, however, will be different from what has been ex pected. From a prominent railroad official a Capital News representative was given to understand that the road to be built will leave the main line at the siding known as Cleft, the first one east of Orchard. It will run In an almost straight line to South Poise and will form a Junction with the track that now extends up past the Nat. There will be no building toward Emmett or New Plymouth this year. Trains will come In from Cleft a.id go out over the Nnmpa road. This plan will place Boise on the main line so far as train service Is concerned and will only require the building of a little over 17 miles of track. The new route will be five or six miles lot.ger than the old one, but a gain of several minutes will be made by eliminating the Nampa transfer, which will fully offset the time lost by the longer line. The s;ub trains would all be done nway with, which would make quite a sav ing In operating expenses. The advantages to be gained by this arrangement are so many and of such Importance that It seems a won der Jhe change waa- not made long ago. 2100 Carloads of Celery. The celery raisers have certainly had a hurd time of It, says a Los An geles correspondent. From the very beginning of the shipping season th'.' car shortage made It almost impossi ble to get their product to tho market and the result was that thousands of dollars of loss ensued. The rains were unusually heavy "and as the crop could not be marketed decay set In and hundreds of acres were a total loss. Early In the season it was esti mated that the total crop would be fully SB00 cars, Instead of which only about 2400 cars went forward. At no time during the forwarding period were there sufficient cars to handln the shipments offered to the rail roads and unless growers can have some positive assurance that the next season will not be a repetition of what has taken pluce this year It is said the acreage will be considerably lessened. The tall end of the crop went forward early this week and brought 20 cents for first grade and 17 cents for second grade. Worked Like a Charm. Mr. D. N. Walker, editor of that spicy journal, the Enterprise, Louisa, Va., says: "I ran a nail In my foot lat week and at once applied Buck len's Arnica Salve. No Inflammation followed; the salve simply healed the wound." Heals every sore, burn and skin disease. Guaranteed at Tallman Co.'s, druggists. 15c.
