T. Hurlburt, a bunker of Condon, win in Prlnevllle Friday, and again on Monday, on his way to and from Cllno Falls, where he has a large In tercut in the Cllne Falls Power com pany. nys the Crook County Jour nal. Mr. Hurlburt In also one of tHe Incorporators of the company formed to project an electric line out of Con don Into Central Oregon. He spoke freely of the company's Intentions, and said that while the enterprise was no; yet under way It was under con sideration, and that a reeonnalsance wmiM shortly be made. The project will Involve the con- Mtrii"tlon of approximately 100 miles of trolley from Condon down Pine creek to Its confluence with the John. Day river: thence, after crossing the rlv.-r Into Wasco county, up Pine hol low to Shanlko, thence north, to tap the Agency plains wheat district, while a spur from o'.VII up Crooked river to Howard will look after Trine. vyie's business, and Is part of the gon er.il program. The members comprising the com ' puny are wealthy and their credit Is good for a whole lot more cash than they possess, so there Is no reason why Mi, -j' should not be able to make good their opportunities If they decide to .) ahead. It iiviy be stated that the timber I. mils south of He nil are being looked upon with covetous eyes by the com pany, which sees unlimited possibili ties in tonnage for an electric line. The c.ist will soon want It. The tim ber supply of the country will be ex hausted within 25 years If the present rate of consumption Is not materially reduced, and central Oregon yellow pine will bo needed long before that time. In fact, the Isolation Is all that has saved t so far. Ten sawmills In that district could easily keep two electric lines busy. It Is only a ques tion of months, not years, until our timber lands will furnish commercial lumber to the east and the coast. Itesldes the timber, the company re gards the Agency plains as no incon siderable factor In inducing the con struction of n railroad. It Is not too much to say that an average of a mil lion bushels of wheat may be pro duced there every year and this means at least 175,000 annually to the transportation line which first enters the field. Then the Irrigated district of the Deschutes Irrigation & Tower company and others will be another factor when occupied by the frugal settlers. Also, It must not be forgot ten that there Is considerable yellow pinp up Ochoco. While plans are not yet fully ma tured, Mr. Hurlburt says his company Intends to go ahead as far as It can with the work, or until Mr. Harrlman hold's It up, the latter having all the rights of way corralled. Mr. Hurl hurt thinks there will be little or no difficulty about that, as an electric1 line can negotiate curves and gradl riits tli.U would paralyze a steam road and It would be easy to get entirely around Mr. Harriman because of this fact. His company has splendid power a Cllne Falls on the Deschutes, for with an SO- font head in 150 yards there Is enough power going to waste to oper ate at least 10 miles of line; and tiieri Is also a gooj power site at Steelhead falls, and another on the John Day at the point of crossing the mouth of Tine creek In Wheeler county.

Many Elected In No Let Up On Truxts. Washington, June 22. According to Franklin Lane, chairman of the In terstate commission. Roosevelt's elim ination from the political field will not cause a cessation of the prosecu tion of the transportation companies for violations of the railroad rate li'w. "The commission has power to call the state's district attorneys throughout the country to secure In dictments of the railroads for grant ing rebates," said Lane.

Candidates Being Germany. Berlin, June 22. Leaders of the German social democracy assert that in 12 districts In Berlin six candidates will surely be elected when the defin itive Issue takes place tomorrow and that there Is a large .probability of two or three more. . One socialist was elected In Hanov er at the first ballot on June 3, and the second ballot may add one or two additional members to this represen tation. The elections are looked upon as a great triumph for the principles of Marx, since it is the first time in history that the socialists have gained representation In the Prussian ange ordnltenhaus. Their entrance into that stronghold of conservatism has created a sensa tion and may induce the government to grant the long demanded franchise reform. Women and children of the workingmens' quarter are taking part in the general jubilation and the pub lic demonstrations of joy at what is termed the speedy triumph of social ism. The victories of the socialists are all the more remarkable because the fianchise on which elections to the diet are conducted Is based on a property qualification, which confers the bulk of power to the wealthy and disfranchises the masses. The gov ernment hitherto has resisted success fully all demands for reform. Chan cellor von Buelow's attitude on this question and the resultant street dem onsirations last January are recalled as the latest Incidents in this peren nial struggle. j FIXTURES FOR SALE CHEAP. Prohibition Will Put Many Men Out of Business. Traveling salesmen for liqulr hous es are being discharged and the mar ket Is flooded with second-hand fix tures for bars as a result of the pro hibition elections in many Oregon counties, says the Portland Telegram. The large territory which many sales men made regularly in the past will seek elsewhere for employment. How many salesmen have been thrown out of work Is not known, but one Portland house alone is said to have released seven. There are said to be furnishings for 150 first class bars on the market, and at least 500 billiard and pool ta bles. Drummers are now flocking In to Idaho and Washington offering bargains in fixtures and tables. In the Lewiston country the saloonmen have been offered expensive billiard tables at their own price and they have been offered the most elaborate of bar fivtures for less than the cost of manufacture. The market Is lit erally glutted with saloon parapher nal, because so many saloons have been put out of business. In Pendleton the telephone com pany has also felt the effects of tho prohibition wave. Saloons In that city have to go out of business the first of the month, and they have no tified the telephone company to take out 40 instruments by that time. Joe Murphy, charged with assault on a young girl, and D. J. Dunning. convicted of forgery, have been sen tenced to the penitentiary from the superior court at Wenatchee, Wash.
