For the simple reason that Don H. Upjohn, editor of the Morning Her ald, this city, In a fit of anger, threw a rock larger than a man's head through a rear window of the Pa cific States Telephone & Telegraph company's building, Manager D. S. Wilkeson Insists that the newspaper man either pay the costs of the brok en window or stand prosecution for dlfaclng the building. Upjohn claims he tried or half an hour to get "central" a few nights ago Just before time to go to press, and as he was unable to reach the girl with his dulcet voice he conclud ed she was asleep, whereupon he walked over to the office, which Is' across the street, and hove a rock Into the room. The girl was frighten ed out of her wits for a minute, but saw who it was and reported him to the manager. He will fight the case to the last ditch. The bill amounts to $1.25. All the news all the tlmo In th East Oregonian. Nile Rank Examiner Gives Easy Jobs fi.t to Members of His Euinlly .e ther Have Had Any Banking Kxiierionee Xeixnlsm Is Sharply Censured. That State Treasurer Steel seems to 'be determined to keep himself in an unfavorable light before tho pub lie, Is shown by tho following from the Portland Oregonian, which says: Again members of the Stool family are in the spotlight, this time for ne potism. When George Steel secured for his brother James the $3000 of flee of bank examiner last year, gos sip ensued. Then came the wreck of the bank of the Title Guarantee & Trust com pany, in which went down $400,000 state money, afterwards redeemed by W. M. Ladd, thereby saving George Steel from responsibility for a heavy public loss. Next was uncovered the political pact between George Steel and Bank er Ross for control of state funds and their deposit In the now defunct bank, and for enactment of a "friend ly" bank law, under which James Steel was appointed examiner. All this and more brought the Steels Into the limelight and made them very uncomfortable. Now again they are In the glare, this time be cause James Steel has appointed as assistant examiners, two sons-in-law, each of them without previous exper. lence In banking, and one of them a failure in his own mercantile af fairs. These young gentlemen have exam ined the German-American bank, Lidd & Tllton and Hibernian bank. and comments in banking circles ar anything but favorable to them. Warrens was life Insurance solic itor of Indifferent fortune and then plunged Into the lumber mill business In Yamhill county near Xewberg, under the firm name, Warrens-Hun Lumber company. Tills venture made big debts and caused its credit ors heavy losses. Next Warrens is seen examining banks, possessed of the authority of the state so to do, reposed in him by his father-in-law. This gave the cred itors of his lumber venture and others who know his unfitness for the posi tion, a rude shock. The talk immediately found its way Into business circles and bankers who have been examined are jesting about the unpractlccd Inspectors that paid them a visit. The bankers are a queer lot, they Imagine that years of training are needed to make a good banker or a good examiner. Ewlng Is well and favorably known n. a teacher in Portland Academy and as a prominent figure in the First Presbytcri in church. Being without a school Job this .summer he his fit ted snugly Into the position of bank examiner. Ewlng Is regarded as a man of considerable ability and merit but of little experience in bunking. The work of the two examiners ap pears satisfactory and they seem to nccompllsh what the law requires. But State Examiner Steel and State Treasurer Steel both find themselves once more charged with nepotism. Lard Laden Stomachs ''Necessity" is the mother of invention. Lard is the father of mdigestion. More than half the indigestion in the country to-day is directly attributable to greasy, indigestible food prepared with lard. Cottolene is the original anti-lard product. It was the first, and it is the best. It is purer, more healthful, and will give better results than any other shortening medium. Just as the original is always better than the imitation, Cotto lene is superior to its imitators. Ask your grocer for Cottolene, and see that our trade-mark, a steer's head in a cotton-plant wreath, appears on the pail. Cottolene is never sold in bulk; therefore, is a cleanly prod uct, absolutely protected from all the odors and dust to which lard is usually exposed in the ordinary grocery store.

Sheep shearing Is about completed In this part of the country. The clip has averaged fairly well, but there will be little or no selling at present prices. Sheepmen think a rise In prices Is to be expected and almost without exception will hold for It Offers have been made as low as 13 cents. T. S. Dickens of San Fran cisco lately passed through the county, but made no offers, saying he could not meet tho 16 cents which was asked by the growers here. The closing of the California mills Is held to be responsible for the low prices. Last year at this time wool was bringing 21 and 22 cents.

The names of 73 instructors appears In t'.e faculty for the coming yeaf, with four places yet to fill, quite a number having been added since last enr. , A fair per cent of last year's grad uates are from the agricultural de partment and It Is encouraging to note that the percentage In this depart ment Is on the Increase.
