MUNICIPAL POLITICS.
All Candidates Will Bo Nominated by
iT)emunicipal political pot is
not simmering as has been its ac
customed wont in the past. "Scab"
and "ring" are words that have ap
parently sought the shades of all
else departed, for" we have not
heardjbeni-mentioned so hr'
From all appearances, Athena's
city election, wh?ch occurs on
March 3, will be a rather tame
affair, to say the least. But .then,
you cannot always tell which way
the ball will roll, and mayhap
thereis fun in store for the bovs
Klayor llollis informs a reporter
that after canvassing the question
as to: holding a convention, for the
nomination of candidates, he has
come to the conclusion that he will
issue ho call, but will leave it to
those who wish for municipal glory
to be nominated . by petition.
This mode of coming before the
people ''as a candidate for munici
pal office, is in vogue in many
other towns and cities whe,re non
partizan tickets are made up, and
has proven to be a much better
way of getting one's ; nama before
the people than when nominated
in convention.: Then too, you and
your neighbor, or your neighbor's
hired man can all run for office,
nobody is slighted,' and there is
plenty material to contest in the
battle at the polls.
" Petitions are now in order for
offices of mayor, five councilmen,
city recorder, city treasurer and
city marshal. . ..
council'meeting.
Couhcil Met Monday-Evening in Its
' Regular Session.
City council met Monday even
ing in regular session Councilmen
Spencer and Tharp wiere absent.
The petition of Cj A. Fischer,
asking permission- ta construct a
wooden awning on buildings within
the fire limit was granted.
i The ordinance committee were
instructed to draw up im ordinance
ftr the regulation of Athena's water
system. An ordinance was talked
of by the council in relation to the
recognition of Athena Hose , Com
pany No. 1, as an organization, but
nothing was done in regard to the
matter. It" appears that one who
serves for a certain number of yea'rs
in the capacity of a fireman in a
volunteer fire department is issued
a certificate which exempts from
paying poll tax, jury, dutv, etc.
This is the reason the department
wishes . the council toecognize it
by ordinance, As it; is now the
time thev are serving cannot he
ven credit on the certificate.
The council and the city marshal
came together again in, regard to a
bill. Mr. Gillis wanted $36 for 12
days carpenter work. Councilman
Kirk thought times- were too hard
to pay that amount'and thought
$2 per day reasonably Mr. Gillis
preterred if the bill was to be cut
to have the number of days lessoned
and not the amount per day, as he
did not wish to establish a pie
cedent of working at his trade for
$2 per day. Mr. Kirk jthen made
the motion to allow tjrtlhs.$24 for
8 days carpenter worky It re
ceived a Becond from1 ''vox and
carried. . i' ,.

Last of the Insurance Cases.
The last of the Cunningham in
surance cases was tried before
JudgVEakin yesterday. Marcus S.
Koshland was the plaintiff aad the
National Fire Insurance Company
of Hartford, -was the defendant.
The amount sued for was $4885.
The jury was out nearly three
hoars, and returned a verdict in
favor of plaintiff for $3750. Messrs.
Carter and Balleray argued tne
case for the plaintiff, and Chamber
lain for the defense. Messrs.
Reedcr, Raley and Chamberlain,
who appeared for the defendants in
each of the insurance cases suc
ceeded in cutting down the amounts
asked for about $800. -
A Peculiar Case.
The local larid office at The
Dalles has just received a decision
from the interior department in
rather a peculiar case. It is one in
which Lewis C. Baker, on August
21, 1894, filed a contest against
John Sperry. Shortly afterward
Baker became insane, and was
confined in' the asylum. W. T.
Weeks then appeared and filed a
contest for the land in controversy.
The department holds that Baker's
insanity was not a bar to his prose
cuting his claim, and dismissed
Week 8 contest.
MUST KILL CAYUSES.
Several Hundred Affected With Dis
eases and Will be Slaughtered.
Stock Inspector George T. Ellis
stated to the East Oregonian that
he has been giving some attention
to the diseased Indian cayuses
which are very numerous on the
reservation. The Umatilla reser
vation. Indians own in all several
thousand cayuses, though it is im
possible accurately to tell the exact
number. Among them, there ap
pears to be many affected with the
mange, and Mr. Ellis estimates
that from 300 to 400 are taken
with the diseise. This constitutes
about GO per cent, of the entire
Indian horse hands. These horses
must be killed, and the stock in
spector has interviewed the head
men among the Indians, who
promise to kill every diseased ani
mal.' The Indians, since horses
became valueless in the market,
havd scarcely known what to do
with their bands. In former years
they could find quite ready market
at $10 per head, and now it would
not -be -extreme to say that the
horses would not sell ot 10 cents
each. Were the entire reservation
band put up for sale, they would
find no takers at that price. It is
even true that were the entire band
hung on a Christmas tree for any
persoji who knew the conditions" of
things, it would not be taken- off
and Santa Claus would not receive
any thanks from the recipient.
The 300 or 4C0 sick cayuses will be
killed by the owners with little
hesitation, and the inspector will
not bo called on to exercise any
authority to compel them to do it.
Were the cayuses of larger size, the
well ones could be sold for canning
and shipment to foreign countries,
but the scrawny cayuse finds no
buyer, and all about him for which
any one has use are the mane and
tail, which could readily be sold,
were they not hampered with so
worthless an encumbrance as a
horse.
) THE WHEAT MARKET.
Higher Prices Expected in Portland
The Market,
In speaking of the wheat situa
tion in Portland the Commercial
Review says:
"The local market has main
t tiined its strength; that has been
demonstrated during the past fort
night. Exporters are buying spar
ingly and are paying full market
price, holders in the interior are
offering sparingly, notwithstanding
that lc per bushel higher is quoted.
With encouraging Eastern and
European advices they firmly be
lieve thev will realize better prices,
and we would not bo surprised to
see wheat sell still higher. Millers
are buying about on the same ratio
as shippers 631c for both Walla
Walla and Valley. We think that
about 15 per cent, of the crop is
still in thu farmers' hands but still
maintain that our crop has been
overestimated. We 6tated this in
September, and would not be sur
prised to hear that both the states
of Oregon and Washington had
only 15,000,000 bushels."
Portland, Feb. G. Wheat, Walla
Walla, GO; Valley, 64c.
Chicago, Feb. 6. Wheat, cash,
62$ to G3jjc; May, G7Jc.
