In the special election which was held here yester day on the question of bonding school district No. 31 In the sum of 140, 000 for school buildings, in which the people of Milton and Freewater had a vote, the matter was turned down, the total votes standing as follows Milton, yes, 128; Milton, no, 163 Freewater. yes, 36; Freewater, no, 247. -.Total, yea, 12; no. 410. - The election was for the purpose of bonding the district in the above sum In order that a 130,000 central school building be erected where the old frame school building now stands at Milton, and that Freewater have new 110,000 building. It Is almost necessary that these places bo provided with better school facilities, but as the two towns can come to no understanding as to what Is best to do In the matter, It will probably be some time before the dlf flculty Is settled. Freewater objects to Milton having the larger end more expensive building. A short time ago the people of Freewater made an effort to have the school dflctrlct divid ed but this wus denied by the district boundary board, the chief reason be ing that the district was In. debt. The matter of better schools In this sec tlon of the county Is an' Important one, and the people of both Milton and Freewater are making a hard fight. Each want new buildings, but they can not agree that either have the better one. Inspecting Idaho Sheep.

TO RAISE FREIGHT RATES Southern Railroad Officials Are Holding a Conference. Louisville, Ky., July 17. A con erence of executive officials of south ern railroads, operating south of the Potomac and east of the Mississippi, was called here today for the purpose of discussing a proposed Increase In freight rates on certain commodities. It can be stated that no Increase of cotton and lumber rates Is contem plated. It Is highly probable, how ever, that the rate on cottonseed oil will be raised, as well as rates on otb er commodities. It Is not likely that rates on general merchandise will be changed. It Is learned that the rail roads will plead, among other things, In Justification of any Increase of rates that may be deemed expedient, the necessity of overcoming rate re ductlons recently effective notably with reference to passenger traffic. The claim Is made that the rail roads have already gone the limit In the matter of reducing their operating expenses through curtailment of sal aries In every branch where a . cut could be made without inviting se rious complications. Hence, the ques tion now Is the raising of revenue suf ficient to meet the absolute exigencies of their properties. Another justification for raising certain rates will be the necessity of meeting greatly Increased operating expenses Incident to the handling of this fall's business; and the fact that In many instances salaries which were reduced last spring will be restored to their former basis. Notice of aa increase of rates on packing house and grain products August 1 has al ready been given. While rates on certain commodities, notably cottonseed oil, will be raised, as a result of the Louisville confer ence, It is said that the general ques tion of rate increase will be treated very delicately, and no rate raised that can be allowed to remain as now fixed. . r.' Only Slight Wheat Storage. " Charles F. Van de Water, traveling freight agent for the O. R. & N. com pany, is In the city today after a tour of the wheat 'belt and expresses I the belief that the crop this year In Uma tilla county will be but about 30 per cent short of last year's crop. He has visited every section where threshing is in progress and finds that the yields are far beyond the expectations of the farmers themselves, who were familiar with the crop conditions. While the wheat Is not as high nor aa thick on the ground as usual. In many places the heads are well filled and the quality of the grain Is excellent.
