IDAHO WOOL IK1 SHOWS NO 1
mum
The Boise News says of the condi
tion of the wool market in that city
and In southern Idaho:
What are eastern wool buyers going
to offer for 'the Idaho clip this year?
This is the question which la puzzling
local sheepmen who are at a loss to
understand the peculiar market con
ditions. The fact that the eastern buyers
in the city and have been here ever
since the clipping season opened,
without making any advances, causes
endless speculation as to what the na
ture of the nrlers are under which
they are acting.
For the past month as many as five
representatives of eastern wool firms
have been stopping ta the Idanha
and h.ive been quietly watching de
velopments with the clip. They wlln
make no advance to local woolmen
and are offering no Inducements.
When seen this morning by a rep
resentative of the Capital News, one
of the prominent sheepmen of the
state and an officer of the Idaho asso
ciation said that he failed utterly to
comprehend the situation In the wool
market and would very much like to
know what the eastern buyers, who
are here. Intended to do.
It was learned that approximately
1,000.000 pounds of wool from this
year's clip has already been shipped
out of this state to the eastern mar
ket on consignments which were made
before the clip started by local sheep
men. The clip Is better than usual and
as large as that of last year, the grade
helng finer.
When a.kfe l if it would be possible
Uiat the Idaho producers would at
tempt to centralize their wool with
the purpose of holding it for future
delivery and until the market opens
up and better prices are offered, the
sheepman said that he had heard
nothing to this effect and that he did
not think this would be done, al
though the conditions right now are
so unusual that It would be hard to
tell what would result.

A query was advanced as to whether
any of the Idaho clip this year had
been sold at 10 cents and this was in
stantly denied with the answer that
the Idaho wool would bring a better
price than that anywhere.
Several of the eastern buyers were
consulted at the hotel this afternoon,
but without exception they had noth
ing to offer. When asked how long
they intended to stay in this territory
and what their plans or offers are
about "buying the Idaho clip, the buy
ers failed to comprehend the drift of
the conversation and said they did
not know. They are apparently wait
ing. Local woolmen have been Informed
that business rushed for the Utah
Woolgrowers' association recently
when the Salt Lake office filed with
the sheepmen from different parts of
the state who had come to make ar
rangements to store their wool In the
east.
JOIXt R EPKES E XTATI V E,
(I'matlUa and Morrow.)
Editorial from Irrlgon Irrigator.
Morrow county being Joined to
Umatilla county as the XXII Legisla
tive District, we have In this county
no chance to be represented at Salem
save by the good will and liberality of
the people of Umatilla county, for
they poll over three votes to our one,
or about 4000 to our 1200.
In all fairness between the two
counties that would entitle us to the
representative every third term, and
we are glad to say that the good peo
ple of Umatilla concede that much to
us. always without any quibbling
At the elections In 1904 and 1906
Morrow county made no effort to se
cure the representative, acknowledg
ing the Implied agreement that when
we elected Bert Phelps in 1902 we
would not present a candidate again
until 1908, consequently at the two
last elections we have taken the nom
inees as given to us by Umatilla
county.
Now It Is "our turn," and the people
of Umatilla recognize the fact, and
we believe they will "tote fair" with
us as they always have done. In
fact, before the primaries numbers of
the leading citizens of that county
sent word to the Irrigator, and nu
merous others of the county, that
Umatilla was going to stand aside and
let Morrow have the representative.
And we nominated Mr. T. J. Maho
ney, of lone, of course we are speak
ing exclusively as to the republican
party), and Umatilla cast a solid vote
for him, the same as we did, at the
primaries.
Mr. Mahoney is not generally known
In Umatilla county. Since his advent
into this county some seven or eight
years ago he has kept pretty busy at
tending to his business as cashier of
the Bank of lone, and has not been
over Umatilla county generally, so he
Is not personally acquainted with the
majority of the voters.
But the Irrigator wishes to say to
the voters of that county, that this
district has never had a better man
presented for this responsible office
than Mr. Mahoney, and there Is no
man In either of the counties who
would be more conscientious In th
discharge of his duties than "Tom"
Mahoney.
He Is a good man In every way. As

straight as a string, as true as steel,
honest and reliable In all things; but
beyond that he is gifted with rare In
telligence and fine business acumen.
In offering him to the people of
L matllla as our candidate (speaking
always as a republican), we have pre
sented the best man we have for that
office, and ask from our Umatilla
friends and neighbors the same loyal
support which we gave their candi
dates at the last two elections, and
the same support they gave our can
didate, Mr. Phelps, in 1902.
That Mr. Mahoney will get such
support, and that he will be trium
phantphantly elected, Is a certainty,
and Morrow thanks Umatilla In ad
vance, and will stand aside for that
county at the elections two and four
years ' hence. Republican Central
Committee.

runners, Look Here!
. Look out for a lying poster gotten
out by the liquor men at the last mo
ment, comparing Linn county. All
we need to say Is that Mr. Wylle of
Pendleton Is from there where
Re hade his home. He says as
others do that Mayor - Mat
lock's son has no drug store and nev
er had. That entire poster is a tissue
of lies. There is not a word of truth
In It. Two years ago they published
declarations from men In Texas, and
from various parts of the land when
the mater was looked up by telephone
It was discovered that these wholesale
liars had printed a lot of letters, every
one of which had been forged. This Is
simply filled with a lot of lies. If you
ask the saloonmen here about It they
know nothing about it and will
not own it because they know It is
full of lies and made out of whole
cloth. The farmers and businessmen
are supplying all the money for this
campaign. They are tired of having
their labor ruined and their taxes
Increased so much. Like North Car
olina, they will vote It out. Fifteen
farmers were Interviewed the other
day. Fourteen out of the 15 are for
local option. Umatilla County Local

another bottle of Hyomel to ue with

Ask them about It They will recom

. The Chicago American prints the
following entertaining story of the
rapid conclusion of the Chicago, Mil
waukee and St. Paul railroad to the
Pacific coast and describes as fol
lows the country through which It
passes.
By reason of an unusual spurt in
work representatives of the Chicago
Milwaukee & St. Paul road say they
expect to have the great transconti
nental line finished from Chicago to
Seattle and Tacoma next spring. .

Not In the history of railroads has!t It, and that Ills wn' business had
a line been constructed with such
speed. The route from Butte to Se
attle and Tacoma, with towns, dis
tricts and engineering feats, was giv
en out recently.
From Butte to Garrison, 53 miles,
the line goes through the Deer Lodge
valley. Then comes the valley of
Hellgate river, the timber district.
West of St. Maries the road runs
through the Coeur d'Alene Indian res
ervation. The well known Palouse
district Is reached. This Is one of the
richest grain and fruit belts of the
Trans-Mlssourl country. At Tekoa

it reaches the shores of Rock Lake.
The banks of the lake are rocky and
precipitous, excelling In beauty the
far-famed palisades of the Hudson
From Palisade the line follows the
banks of the lake five and one-half
miles to the new town of Lavlsta, at
the foot of the lake; thence 37 miles
through a country capable of produc -
Ing grain, but which has hitherto not
been developed for lack of railroad
facilities. Six miles east of Rolston
the line passes over Cow creek on a
steel structure 1405 feet long. From
Llnd to the Columbia river at Bever-
ly, 73 miles, the line passes through
the new towns of Roxboro, Warden
and Othello.
The crossing of the Columbia river
is made on a bridge of 15 spans of
steel trusses, supported by massive
concrete piers, the channe span being
placed so high a draw Is unnecessary.
Twenty-five miles atfer leaving the
Columbia river the line enters the j
well known Kittitas valley, which Is ;
Irrigated by water drawn from the !
river. j
The line passes through a timbered
country to Snoqualmle pass, through !
the Cascade mountains, at an eleva- j

then followed Into Seattle. The line !
