IGNORANCE OF SANITATION.
Lower Classes In Russia Refuse
Be Vaccinated.
8t. Petersburg, Sept. 29— Since the
beginning o f the epidemic there have
been 15,083 eases of Asiatic cholera re­
ported in Russia and 7,102 deaths.
St. Petersburg aloae, since the presence
o f the disease was officially admitted
September 8, there have been 4,931 cases
and 1,871 deaths reported.
The figures with reference to the in
vasioa of this city by the disease can
not be relied upon as on a number
occasions authoritative sources showed
the number o f eases and deaths in
single day to be far in excess of tha^
announced by the authorities. There
an appreciable betterment of the a m
tary conditions and consequent decrease
in tho disease as shown by the figures
given out Sunday.
For the 24 hours ending at noon the
number o f new eases in the city was
268 and the number of deaths 143,
compared With 312 new eases and 153
deaths for the previous 24 hours.
Difficulty has been experienced
dealing with the workmen of St. Peters­
burg, who with their families comprise
three-fifths of the population for they
were unable and unwilling to comply
with the sanitary precautions.
The
ignorance of the lower classes and their
superstition greatly increase the d iffi­
culties of the situation. During the
earlier stages of the epidemic few could
be prevailed upon to undergo preventive
inoculation, which is provided free
charge, but latterly the authorities
have made inoculation compulsory
some quarters of th6 city.
SITUATION M O ST SERIOUS.

U A H ITEMS OF INTEREST
WANT GOOD ROADS.
L O O K F O R IN F L U X .
Enthusiastic Meeting Held at Medford tJumpor Crop in Southern Oregon Is
by Association. •
Bure to Attract People.
Medford.—That the people of Med
ford and vicinity are thoroughly alive
to the good roads campaign was em­
phasized last week, and a most en
thusiastic meeting was held. So
thoroughly are Medford citizens inter­
ested in the movement that the busi­
ness houses were closed in order that
the members might attend the meet­
ing.
The meeting convened in the Com­
mercial club rooms, and the hall was
crowded. Judge William Colvig. pres­
ident of the Commercial club, pre­
sided. John H. Scott, president of
the Good Roads association for Ore
gon, spoke of the importance of good
roads and outlined the formation of
associations throughout the state Rp
work for the enactment of legislation
providing for the appointment of state
hghway commissioner, and for appro­
priation to construct one or more
continuous lines of road through the
state. He also advocated a state ap­
propriation of $10,000 for each o f two
years, with a provision that the coun­
ty appropriate a like sum for the pur
pose of constructing a piece o f per­
manent road in each county, so that
eventually the roads so constructed in
the various counties would unite and
make some continuous lines of road
throughout the state.
Looking Glass Trail Complatad.
Pendleton.— Of deep interest to
stockmen using'the Wenaha national
forest grazing privileges is the an­
nouncement by J. M. Schmitz, the
supervising forester in charge, that
the Looking Glass trail has been com ­
pleted. This trail extends from the
Tollgate to Motett meadows, through
12 miles of as rough country as is to
be found, in that part of the Blue
mountains, and its construction will
result in a great saving of time and
expense to the stockmen, who have
been compelled to drive their flocks
across that section of country in get­
ting access to their allotments of
range. He also reports the comple­
tion of two rangers’ cabins, one at
Tollgate and one on the Umatilla
river.
Bureaucracy Weighs Dollars Heavier
. Than Human Ufa.
8t. Petersburg, Sept. 28__ The bu
reaueracy of St. Petersburg is weighing
dollars against human life, and as a re­
sult Russia is today threatened with
one of tho gravest eholera eeourgea ia
the history of the empire.
Premier Stolypin, into whose hands
the work of enforcing imperative sani
tary. reform* waa recently placed, ia
moeting with discouragement from those
la authority on every hand. They are
protesting vigorously against the enor­
mous expense involved in eleaning np
the eity, and as a result o f their oppo­
sition the work will probably be only
half done.
One of Premier Stolypin’a proposal*
it a complete new system o f sewerage,
the estimated cost of whieh is $40,000
000.
It is being pleaded that the advent
of eold weather will put an end to the
cholera spread, whereas the history of
all eholera plagues has been that cold
weather is but a temporary ehoek, being
followed in the ensuing spring by a re­
currence of tho scourge.
Bad as conditions are in St. Peters­
burg, they are hardly to be compared
with the menacing aspect of the dis­
ease in other parts of the empire. In
scores o f towns the wretched poverty of
the people, covered with the ignore nee
and superstition against remedial meas­
ures, makes the work of guarding
against the fearful outbreak ia the
spring an utter impossibility.
Doctors are appalled at Ihe prospect
and say that whatever the outcome in
8t. Petersburg, there is no hope of im­
provement elsewhere.
It ia estimated that throughout Rus­
sia there have already been 18,000
deaths from eholera. In many towns
75 per eent of the eases have terminated

Myrtle Creek.— The farmers in this
and other localities through this coun­
ty are in the midst of the harvest of
the large crop of prunes. The con­
tinued dry weather has brought the
crop earlier than usual, and the fruit
driers are taxetj to the limit.
The price paid to the farmers this
season adds evidence to the ever-
increasing possibilities of Oregon,
some o f the growers receiving as high
as 5i cents per pound for their crop
of prunes, this being the basis price
paid for the 30 to 35 size, and 4c less
per pound for each five prunes to the
pound smaller.
A representative o f one of the large
nurseries o f the state has sold several

During the past three months no
less than 20 new families (people who
have been attracted to Oregon from
the east by the many resources) have

WRECK IN MONTANA
Fast Pateenger Train Crashes
Into Standing Freight.
TWENTY PERSONS LOSE LIVES
Dead Nearly All in Ona Gar—Blinding
Snow Storm Prevented En-
ginaar Seeing Ahead.
Butte, Mont.. Sept. 86.— In the
worst wreck in the history o f the
Northern Pacific Railroad, 20 persona
were killed, 10 seriously injured, sev­
eral fatally and about 30 more or leas
injured in a collision between passen­
ger train No. 16, knows as the east-
bound Burlington flyer, and a west­
bound freight train, at 8:10 o ’clock
yesterday morning, at a siding known
as Youngs Point, about thirty miles
west of Billings. The faat traveling
passenger train crashed into tho
freight just entering on the siding dur­
ing a blinding anow storm, the en­
gineer o f the passenger failing to see
the signal flag o f the brakeman o f the
freight train in time to avert tbe
crash.
A heavy, wet «now which was fall­
ing at the time prevented the wreck
from catching fire, and undoubtedly
held the death list down to the figures
given. Every effort is being made by
the division forces, aided by volun­
teers from Livingston and Billings, t o
clear the wreck, and so far they are
able to prevent further loss o f life;
None of the passengers from the
sleeping cars was injured. The train
was made up o f an engine, baggage
car, smoker, a day coach and tw o
Pullman sleepers.
Tbe efforts to prevent fire were suc­
cessful and that horror waa saved the
wrecked passengers. On the arrival
o f the relief train the injured were
transferred around the wreck and
taken to Billings.
The express car was raised over the
platform o f the smoker, and swept
superstructure, seats and passengers
off. Not a passenger in this car es­
caped death or injury. The other pas­
sengers escaped with cuts and bruises.
The scenes around the smoker were
beyond description, heads, bodies, legs
and arms being interwoven with
broken seats and equipment. In one
place five bodies were packed on top
of each other. In another seven had
to be pulled apart. It was almost im­
possible to succor the injured without
trampling on the dead.
Railroad men, while refusing to be
quoted officially or allowing their
names to be used because o f tbe reg­
ulations of_ the road in connection
with publicity as to wrecks, intimate
that the freight train was stealing
time, that it had no orders to proceea
to Youngs Point and should have
waited at Park City, about aix miles
from the scene o f the wreck, for the
passenger train. This is supposed to
explain why the Burlington train was
traveling about 30 miles an hour past
the siding.
