Has Whit- arose and fired Blanchard. securing nan been handed a lemon instead of Cayou, the well known Carlisle In- a football ytar? The question Is one that Is arous ing considerable interest In sporting circles here and the general opinion I that Whitman will have neither material nor coaching this fall. Mer e!l Blanchard, for the past two years coach at Washington university, St. Louis, has been employed to look after the Missionary football interests and from his recommendations it was thought by the faculty he was a top notcher. Although no one had ever heard of him his reconimendatlons were good and he claimed to be able to coach football, basketball, base ball, track and everything else. The college authorities bit and he Is to coach the Whitman team. But when the Spalding football guide for the season of 1308 reached the city, the first of the week, It was found that Washington university ard Blanchard had been a football Jeke, that the nearest he had come to winning a game was the goose egg end of a 27 to 0 score with the T'nlverFlty of Missouri, a team Itself i Joke. Apainst St. Louis university the school which came wet to play W. ft. C, his 11 could lo nothing better tr.an keep the score down to 78 point", while his 11 got nothing.

The news of t!:elr desiring such a feature of amusement reached here a. few days coach for the coming dian. All this In spite of the fact thai j UR0 anJ wjtj,n fevv hours the $500 necessary for purchasing the outfit had ben subscribed by Honolulu cit izens. Aside from the necessary re straint Imposed upon them, there Is littlo that other people In the terri tory enjiiy that the lepers do not get also. The great Atlantic fleet even v. ent out of Its course In order to pass close to the shores of the settlement, and reduced spo.ed that the passage of Molokai might be made after daylight.

Crack Players Left. With the loss of Dimick, Spugle. Lyman, Dutcher, Perlnger, Rlgsby. Phllbrook, Brubaker, Stan, Borlcsk'j and Camp, all but one of whom were Whitman's heaviest men, It looks a If the local Institution would have to depend upon speed and tricks to win. Fut from the guide published by Spalding It seems that Blanchard Is one of the coaches In his part of the country who "relied on old-fashioned football. They were slow In grasp ing the possibilities of the forward pass. Having played only the old line bucking, close formation game, they were powerless when they at tempted to Impart the knowledge of open football." More Is said In the guide on pages 63 and 67, concerning the poor work done by him and his team, and the ffellng here Is that the college au thorities have certainly made a mis take In picking their coach for the coming year. With the backbone of last year's team gone und Its several members as well, there seems to be nothing in sight for the Missionaries this fall unless they can get Into the new gf.me and play It In better shape than trey ever have done. Of last year' fast team only Will Martin, Vincent Eorleske and Ralph Mathews are left.

This case Is not so much n consequence of -Increase In the gold supply as some would have ua believe, although that factor can not be Ignored. The present glutted condition of the money market Is c! i. f!y attributable to the accumula tion of funds which always follows a, panic, regardless of the production of told, nusiness activity nus ueeu ai u minimum and funds came out of hoarding as confidence revived. These two movement, caused a piling up of Idle funds In the banks, which now' hold extraordinary reserves In spite of the fact that the crop movement 1 as begun and that usiiully currency Is flowing freely to the west and souih at this season. They also ac count for the record-breaking accum ulation of gold In the American and European banks more than the enor mous production of the Rand district. What is the effect of such an ac cumulation of Idle funds? The own ers must Inevitably seek better em ployment than afforded by current low rates on call and time money. Since confidence, though rising, Is not fully restored and caution Is neces sary In making Investments, credit expands slowly. Only the best bor rowers and the best proposals are welcome at the bank. Discrimina tion is still necessary; the result be ing that large holders of Idle money are obliged to Invest In" the better class of securities. Money can. be much more profitably employed In these lines than In ordinary lending; good investments thus become scarce, and the big speculator with on abun dance, of cheap money at his com mand Is afforded an unusual oppor tunity. This explains the present stubbornness of the market to yield to artificial pressure, also the strong undertone shown in the face of un favorable news. Cheap money Is not only a powerful but under the circum stances it Is the most natural stim ulant to business that could be ex pected. With the prospect of low rntes of interest for several months to tome there Is little chance for any important reaction In either financial or mercantile circles, certainly not until money rates advance or reac tion Is produced from causes not yet apparent. All the European banks, It will bn noted are accumulating gold, and combined they are carrying the larg est stocks of the precious metal on record. Our crop situation continues satisfactory. Corn Is making good progress, and If early frost Is escaped a full crop at profitable prices is al most a certainty. Wheat Is also threshing out better trian expected and now Justifies the earlier expec tations of a full yield. Oats are somewhat of a disappointment, and cotton has been Injured to the extent of t to 6 points during the past month. In the agricultural. Indus trial, mercantile, financial and, politi cal fields ail the tendencies are of a hopeful character. Stocks, however, are now very high, and offer tempt In? profits to holders of long stand ing. A further advance may b? In prospect; but those with big gains are likely to step out before long and leave what profits remain to the late buyers. Investors may therefore await more favorable opportunities while speculative buyers will have to exercise, much deseretion. HENRY CLEWS. The New DRESS FABRIC For Fall and Winter 1908-09.

Maine fair grounds here late today, Charles Oli ver Jones, a well known aeronaut of Hammondsport, X. Y fell a distance f 300 feet to his death. Among the witnesses of the frightful plunge were Mrs. Jones and child, and they were almost the first to' reach the tide of the dying man. .The aero naut died an hour and a half after the accident. When the aeronaut reached height of more than 500 feet the spectators were amazed to see small tongues of flames Issuing from undwr the gas bag In front. of the motor, Many persons endeavored to apprise Jones of his danger, but several mln utes elapsed before he noticed the fire. Then he grasped the rip cord ii nd by letting out the gas endeavor -d to reach the earth. The machine c'.esi ended but a short distance when ; sudden burst of flames enveloped the gas bag, the framework separ a ting from the bag. Jones fell with the frame of his motor and when the spectators reached him he was lying under It. The gas bag was completely nestroyed.

Shea, Jr., rancher of Frultvale, thinks the grow ers' of fruit In and about North Yaki ma nie fighting unfair conditions tins season. Being ofered 40 cents per box for his peaches here. Mr. Shea tele graphed through to Duluth, Minn., to a large dealer there and asked the wholesale price on peaches. His ans wer, which cgme nbout noon today, raid "Wholesale market on peaches here Is 90 cents." Mr. Shea says he wants to know about that. Peaches he says, can be delivered at Duluth for 17 cents a box and he thinks thnt leaves too great a margin to the deal er here, If he buys in Yakima at 40 cents and sells at Duluth or some such market for 90 cents. "The grower hns got something coming to him,' I think," said Mr, Shea, "and this Is meat to work on. I would b? pleased to have you nn nounce, and you can use my name, If you choose, thnt the Duluth price Is 90 cents. "Another thing, and that Is the matter of agreement In price. Satur day night all the dealers were offer ing 50 cents a box when they closed for business. Monday morning, with not an Elberta In sight at any of the warehouses, the price, and they were ngreed on It, was 40 cent.. How did that come about?"

Upton H. Glbbs officiating. The groom has been affiliated with professional baseball in the Inland umpire for the past year, or so, and Is now conducting the Coliseum skat ing link until the next baseball sea son opens.

Bridge In Dad Condition. riih approaches to the bridge across t'je government ditch at the first crossing south of town are in very bad condition and are liable to cause damage that might Involve ex pensive litigation. Forqulte a dis tance each 'side of this bridge there are a great many weeds which If cut and placed In the road bed would keep the loose dirt from blowing away after being placed at the ap proaches, and It would seem the la bor of properly grading these places would not be very expensive. No Mifitter what the cost, however, the work should be done and" done quick ly. Echo Register. Percy A. Cupper, assistant state en gineer, was In Echo Monday on his way up the Umatilla river endeavor ing to gather Information concerning the amount of seepage and evapora tion of waters In the Umatilla river: There Is a determined effort on the part of the state officials, the Initia tory step having been taken by Gov ernor Chamberlain, to gather all pos sible data that will be of assistance to the people In determining their action when water legislation shall again be presented either to he state legislature or to the people through the Initiative and referendum. Mr. Cupper expressed the hope that at the next legislature laws would be en acted looking to the adjudication of water rights. The records of Umatilla county now show that four times the amount of water passing down the Umatilla at Its highest flood flow has been filed upon, which would natur ally lead to the conclusion that some of the rights are worthless and that no more water could be' appropriated, whereas there Is a great quantity of unused water up to about the first of June each year. This would Indi cate that the original water rights called for a great deal more water than Is needed. The water question In Oregon Is one that must be given careful attention, and It Is hoped that the engineer's department will be able to suggest some laws that will solve the problem. Echo Register.
