While visiting la Wayilns, N. Y.,
few weeks ago, Harold J. Warner, son
of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Warner, had a
most interesting talk with a man who
Is entitled to pone as the founder of
Pendleton. .He Is J. D. Stevens, and
while he lived here but a short time
himself, yet it was at his suggestion
that the first family In' Pendleton
camped at this point.

at the mouth of Wild Horse creek
find when on the way to Swift's sta

met Mr. and Mrs. Goodwin, the first
people to locate In Pendleton. They
Inquired of hiin concerning a camp
ing place and located here, somewhere
In the vicinity of the Hotel Pendle
ton location.
Mr. .Stephens himself did not live
here long, but moved to Baker coun
ty and later into Malheur county.
However, he made the acquaintance
of many old-time residents while he
was here. He revisited Pendleton
five years ago.
The old gentleman left Oregon to
return to New York only four years
ago and at that time he was the
county Judge of Malheur county. Back

girl's parents objected to the marriage
at that time and Stephens came west
to make his fortune. It was CO years
later that he again learned of the
lady's whereabouts and .by that time
she had been married twice and was
a widow for the second time. But the

RAIN CAME TOO LATE.
Drought Cuts Down Crops Along the
Columbia River.
Reports received by the railroad
companies from the tier of counties
lying south of the Columbia river
show that the wheaf yield there will
be much shorter than last year's crop,
due to the long drought during the
spring months, says the Portland Or
egonlan. Rain which has fallen In
this district during the past few days
came too late, It is said, to be of as
sistance In saving the crop.
Morrow county, always a large
wheat growing district, reports that
the dry weather and the warm winds
have been disastrous to crops. Many
fields are said to be hardly worth cut
ting. It Is estimated the yield of
grain will be about 45 per cent of the
normal crop.
Reports from Gilliam county show
that spring wheat and barley have
been damaged about 60 per cent,
while loss to fall wheat is about 20
per cent. The crop situation there is
unchanged.
Crop prospects have slightly Im
proved In Sherman county since the
last report from that section on ac
count of the light rains Sunday and
Monday and cool north winds. A
strip along the east side of the coun
ty, however, about three miles wide,
Is considered utterly destroyed. Much
of the balance of the crop, particu
larly In early sown grain, will make
from 75 to 90 per cent of a normal
yield. It is thought that on the whole
the outlook Is good for 60 per cent of
last year's crop throughout the coun
ty. The electric storm the first of the
week In Wasco county, accompanied
by rain, has relieved the situation
there sowewhat. From half a crop
of spring grain to three-fourths of a
crop of fall wheat is expected in
Wasco.
WYOMING WOOL SALES.
Ilig Clips Sold at Low Prices This
Season.
The Evanston, Wyo , Times, says:
"The Tim Kinney wool clip of 400,
000 pounds has been sold. Eastern
wool buyers representing the B. Har
ris Wool company of St. Louis were
In Cokevllle last week and after a
lively and long drawn out scramble
tMs firm came out victorious over
many competitors. The fleece Is
considered the best in the west and
goes down as the largest Individual
clip in western Wyoming
"Covey Bros., next In line with 800,
000 pounds, sold to the same firm.
The price Is said to have been 14
cents. While a number of small clips
throughout Utah, Idaho and western
Wyoming remain unsold, the sale of
these two big clips practically marks
the closing of the wool season for
190S. There has been much rapid
buying during the past two weeks.
The Cody Stockgrower says of sales
in that locality:
an. uiair, tne wool King or Mon
tana, sold his entire 190S clip, whlcli
is said to be the largest Individual
clip In the world, for 15 M cents to
Silberman Bros, of Chicago last week,
"As the wool will not be baled
will fill 50 freight cars and the sum
Mr. Balr will receive will be In the
neighborhood of $155,000 for this
year's product from his wooly backs
"Rea Bros, sold a half million
pounds to J. Guthrie, for Silberman
Bros., at 15 cents, while A. H. Barth
received 16 cents for 300.000 pounds
and Ross & Runner topped the bunch
with 200,000 pounds at 16 4 cents,
Vegan Bros., received 16 cents for
their clip of 250,000 pounds, Williams
