artillery is shelling the outer
defenses of Warsaw and des
perate fighting is in progress
between Blonie, fifteen miles
south of Warsaw, and Jozefe,
for possession of the railway
leading directly to the Polish
capital. The fall of Warsaw is
predicted in a fortnight. The
Germans are rapidly encircling
the main defenses. They are
within the artillery range at
Novo Gorievsk, twenty miles
north of the city. The Russi
ans directly west and south
west are retreating. The kais

WHEAT QUOTED HIGHER
IN PENDLETON THAN IN
PORTLAND MARKET TODAY
The opening of the local wheat
murket for the 1915 crop came yea-
terduy when John Crow, prominent
leservatlon farmer, sold about 2000
sacks to Henry W. Collins for Imine
illate delivery. The wheat was off
the quarter section which was badly
burned and made a test of fifty only
but nevertheless brought a price said
to be 75 cents. It Is being hauled
now and will be sent on to Portland
nt once to help make up a shipment
being prepared there now.
This Is about the only sale of 1915
muff yea recorded in thelocnll market.
Local buyers declare they will pay
from "G to 82 cents for good wheat
but none of the farmers are showing
any dlsposotlon to sell at this price.
It Is anticipated that there will be
little doing in the transfer of wheat
for a week or more.

Everything possible to bring Oregon

thut several Oregon bands ana

here to participate In one way or an
other. An orchestra and vocalists
will furnish nursic each day and at

ial programs. Eastern Oregon will
have one day all its own and In all
probability Representatives Lackey

At the snme time the Pendleton
Round-up will be featured in some
unique way. The Wllllamette valley
representatives are In correspondence
with the various commercial clube
and are hoping to stir up aomethln
new and novel that will make their
day the greatest of all. Taylor, Durs
niore, Freytag, Warren, Stevenson,
Proctor, and Orlsenwalte, all repre
senting the Willamette valley coun
ties, make up a formidable organiza
tion. The Coos Bay man, J. A. Ward,
figures on a clam bake of which Cal
ifornia and the world knows little.
The Oregon building, located within
a few feet of a sandy beach, offers
Ideal conditions for such on affair
and if Ward can pull off this stunt

SAX FRANCISCO, July 21 Pre
paredness for war as the best guar
antee of peace and preparedness that
humiliation and a frightful price in
blood and misery man not have to be
l aid In case of attack, was the na
tional doctrine expounded by Roose
velt before thousands at the Panama
exposition. Roosevelt urged a navy
superior to any possible foe which
miKht attack us and an adequate, suf
ficient army. He advocated universal
military service on the Swiss plan
toward building up the national de
fenses. In conclusion Roosevelt said: "Fin
ally and most important let us re
member there can be no efficient pre
paredness against war unless we pre
pare our own souls. If we become soft
and flabby physically and morally, we
shall fail. No nation ever amounted
to anything if population uas com
posed of pacificists or poltroons, if
its sons didn't have fighting edge, if
its women did not feel as the mothers
of Washington's continentals felt, as
the mothers of men who followed
Grant apd Lee felt. Men who are not
ready to fight for the right are not
fit to live In a free democracy. The
only women fit to be wives and moth
ers In a free republic are those who
feel their sons are not sons of the1"
unless when their country calls their
souls are eager and they feel jubilant
to answer, th- mighty trumpet note
Mhich announces that the hearts of
men are being sifted before the judg
ment seat."

CARDIFF. July 21. "England faces:
a situation so serious it calls for the'

every man. woman and child in the j
nation.'' This was the statement of
Llod tieorge in his address before
the representatives of the miners of
South Wales, following the ratifica
tion of the agreement which ended
the strike. The serious situation faced
by France as well as England was
pointed out to the miners delegates
when the minister called attention to!
the fact the bulk of the French coal
fields were in possession of the Ger
mans. "Show France," George de-
ciared. "you are prepared to assist!
in the struggle for world freedom by I
filling the bunkers of her navy as
well as England's. With your help
Great Britain will defy the most po
tent enemy In the world. Peace at
home is essential if England is to be
victorious." George was given an
ovation by the miners.

BERLIN, Ji' -The capture of Warsaw will not only
make possible-. irate peace with Russia, but will remove
the possibility of Ihe Balkans joining the allies, a semi-official
statement from the government press bureau declared. The
peace sentiment is rapidly growing in Russia, it is declared and
France is entirely unable to undergo another winter campaign.
It is the popular belief in Berlin that a victory before War
saw will do much toward hastening peace. With the Russians
completely crushed and the great armies of the east released
for operations against the French and British in Flanders it is
believed Germany will be able to discuss a cessation of hostil
ities with her enemies.
