"Harvesting is practically all done

says Clark Wood, editor of the
Weston Leader., who was a visitor in
Pendleton today., ' '.'The , ra.'n halted

Mitchell hit an easy one to Oarber,

through the first baseman, allowing
Phelps to score with the wlnlnng run.

' Wheat Is not in -demand now in
Pendleton, local grain dealers de
clare, practically no buying being
done at present. The' uncertainties
of the transportation situation are
blamed for the slackness that pre
vails, and no decided improvement
i:i expected until the railroad strike
is settled. .
Shipments arc being made rapidly,
but the wheat that is being sent, to
the coast now Is that part of the
crop which was contracted for dur
ing the spring and summer months.
To date H. W. Collins has shipped
approximately 600,000 bushels of the
wheat contracted for at around one
dollar a bushel.
. "If we can have two weeks moro
with as good railroad service as we
have had since we- started shipping
this year's crop we can expect to
finish shipping opr contract orderp
within the coming two weeks," Col
lins said today. ,

The criticism was misplaced, for
Xorthcliffe made the fortunes of more
subordinates probably than all other
Fleet street proprietors combined.
Xorthcliffe's political power was in
ternational. His newspr.pers have had
a wide Influence on foreign relations.
People discussed Northcliffe's policies
as if he were a prime minister. North
ellffe was independent and moderately
progressive in his views. Beforo the
war, he bitterly attacked Lloyd
George's radicalism. But once the
conflict began Northehiffe realized
Lloyd George was best fitted to be
come war premier. The weight of
Xorthcliffe's influence undoubtedly
had much to dj with Lloyd George's
selection. During- the progress of the
war, Lloyd George and Northcliffe
worked together without friction, de
spite their temperamental differences.
But, when the German break came
and the crisis was over, relations be
tween them ceased to be amicable.
The cause of their break probably was
the impossibility of two such inde
pendent and active personalities work
ing together except under the stimulus
of national self-preservation. North
cliffe attributed their- differences to
Lloyd George's refusal to recognize his
ministry in the Interest of greater na
tional efficiency Lloyd George's ver
sion Is that the split was due to North
cliffe's effort to dictate to the prime
minister the names of a peace cabinet.
Broke Under Strain
J After-the nnnrrel. Xorthcliffe began
to show the effects of the strain under
which he had been laboring during the
war. Several times he was ordered by
his physicians to rest, but he disre
garded their advice. Eventually he
was persuaded to take a trip around
the world. The- doctors thought this
would enforce quiet upon him. In
stead, Northcliffe turned special cor
respondent and searched ceaselessly
for news at all the stopping places. He
broke down under the strain and had
to curtail his tour. On his return to
Europe the doctors took him In charge
isaln. But he refused once more to
listen to them.
He became very erratic. He went
into Germany, disguised, to study con
ditions there. He severely -criticized in
public the action of his subordinate?
on the Dally Mail in agreeing with
other publishers to reduca wages. Two
of the members of tho board of direc
tors of the Dally Mail started libel
suits against him. His condition alarm
ed his relatives and he was finally
persuaded to give up all work and sub
mit to medical treatment. But, he re
tired too late. His heart became af
fected, and the end soon. He died
practically as he had lived, at his
desk. 1 .,
Northcliffe Is survived by his wife,
to whom he was married in 188. He
had no children. His principal heir I
expected to be his nephew, Hon Es
mond Harmsworth, son of Lord Roth-ermere.

SYRACUSE. N. Y., Aug. 14. There
!s a hornet's nest in a crevice of the
second story veranda at tho home of
lsadore Bellrff here.
The bureau of police and the bu
reau of fire, the department, of pub
lic health and the department of pub
lic works all have been solicited, and
fire, smoke and water, and even moral
suasion have been employed to drive
tho hornets away. But they arc still
Belloff's unwelcome tenants.
The hornets appeared suddenly
from nowhere. One day thero were
no hornets; the next they were in ful
possession of Belloff's veranda. The
veranda has been unoccupied, save by
the hornets, since.
Bellof f was completely at a loss. He
wasn't entirely sure Jus,t what the
proper procedure was In getting rid of
the hornets. ,
A neighbor volunteered his aid.
Surely, the neighbor reasoned, In a
country so abundantly legislated there
must be a law to which harnets are
subject. For have not the deep-think
ing legislators forbidden apple juice to
ferment In a barrel?
The enlghbor telephoned the police
and was told that the hornet niuna
had just stepped out. The matter,
however, would be Investigated, the
complainantt, was assured. The fire
department was equally at a loss. Its
duties do not cover that kind of u
fire. So, too, did the dealth depart
ment confess its shortcomings.' The
could see no statutory grounds upon
which either department could - pro
ceed against the hornets. "
S. f. C. A. Takes I land.
The Society for the Prevention o
Cruelty to Animals took th master to
heart. It was expiated that the
function of the soe'ety was' to .protect
our poor dumb cousins from ua, and
to rob the hornets of the- home they
had so painstakingly builded would
be utter cruelty. It was suggested,
but vainly, that the hornets wyre not
so dumb. , t
Another neighbor suggested to the
Belloffs that a dispossess action- bw
brought In Municipal court, then' If
the hornets failed to vacate, they
could be held in contempt of courti
This, however, seemed almost to for
mal and perhaps would take .; time.
Meanwhile the hornets were tif sh '
every hour and growing fresher.
Water Works, Hut '
i Finally a ne.'ghbor of genuine cour
age nominated tho water cure. Hous
es In the vipinity were carefully closed
and screened, and a sharp stream
played from the hose directed at the
hornet's nest. Within a minute the
hornet's nest was no more, and a few
thousand hornets were flying about,
seeking just one sting.
There was more or less of a neigh
borhood celebration well within
doors. Everyone congratulated every
one else. The hornets had been
taught how to take a joke.
Then came (he real tragedy. Bell
off stepped nut on his porch to' view
the wreckage. He was warned by a
steady, busy humming. Ho looked
aloft and then returned Indoors in
haste and in despair.
The Hornets had completed a new i
nest on the exact site of the ruined
one.
