County School Superintendent
Receives Many Appli

Ars Successful.
Nothing gives results like
newspaper publicity. Two weeks
ago the Globe published a brief
paragraph stating that Gilliam
county was in need of a score of
school teachers. The story went
to the Portland papers and Super
intendent Sturgill has already
received eighteen applications. .

which have not as yet secured
teachers will profit bv commun

Surveyors Seek
Grade Out of City
Surveying on the new electric line', which is to in
vade the infftior, is on at full blast, 0. Denny, the San
Francisco engineer, with a gang of men, having arrived
last Saturday. When seen last evening, Mr. Denny re
ported that surveys were now being made in several
different directions south of town in order to get the
best grade. The fore part of the week the surveyors
ran e line out toward Sniption Hill, west of Condon, and
on out to Hog Back and on the public road to Mayville",
but the route did not prove feasible.' Another survey
was made down the canyon south of town running down
Thirty-mile canyon, but this route was found too steep
and the turns too sharp. Today the crew started to run
their levels toward the Maddock canyon, and this will,
no doubt, be the moat feasible route out of the city to

MAYVlLLE GRANGE WILL.
DISCUSS WHEAT RATES
Farmers Fear Agreement they
Signed Is not for their
Best Interests.
At the monthly meeting of the
Mayville Grange held in their
hall recently matters of import
ance regarding the coming fair
were discussed. Master C."
Quinn, presided at the session.
After the transaction of rout
ine business, a committee con
sisting of Mrs. Taylor and Mrs,
W. G. Keys, was appointed to
solicit funds to provide for the
premiums to be ottered at the
fair. The members of the com'
mittee will concentrate their
efforts in the Mayville locality
only since the other granges will
work in their respective territor
ies. The fair is being better
advertised than formerly and
the, members of the Grange are
enthusiastic for the success of
the event
Mayville grange showed that
it is a live institution by bring
ing up a discussion of the re
duction of the wheat rates on
the 0. R. & N. to "Portland,
While some of the members ad
mitted havine stoned the agree
ment proposed by certain Pendle
ton parties, they expressed the
opinion that the scheme was not
favorable to their best interests,
some went so far as to declare it
some sort of a "graft" The
proposition is to be fully dis
cussed at the next monthly meet
in a of the srranere by the lecturer.
It was announced that the
wreaths for the lady officers, won
in a contest last year, had been
sent by the state orgnization.

EXTENSIVE ARRANGEMENTS
Committees at work for Adver
tising Fairs at Mayville,
The Dalles, and
Salem.
Agricultural fairs are of im
mense benefit to farming: com
munities. They promote the
development of various phases of
husbandry by stimulating larm-
ers to stow better crops ana to
raise higher grades of livestock.
There are three fairs that are of
interest to Gilliam county ranch
ers-the local fair at Mayville. the
district fair at The Dalles and.
the state fair at Salem.
During the past week the Con
don National Bank hat installed
for the convenience of its pat
rons a Safe Deposit Box Depart
ment which will enable the
friends of that financial institu
tion to find a safe place for their
valuable papers and articles.
The safety deposit department
is composed of fifty boxes of
different sizes made up in three
sections. The bank has placed
these boxes for the convenience
of its patrons, many of whom
have already taken them. Loca
ted in the big vault, these small
steel encased boxes are abso
lutely secure against theft and
fire. These boxes are provided
with two keys each, which open
none but the box to which they
belong, one key is given to the
renter, the other remains at the
bank. Without the two keys
the deposit boxes cannot be
opened.
The accompanying cut shows
the splendid concrete building,
the home of the Condon National
bank. The structure would be a
credit to a city twice as large as
Condon. Its appointments are
modern throughout

agricultural fair to be held at
Mayville October 8 and 9th ap
peals with more than common
interest because it is a home fair

special efforts to make the event
an unaualified success. The
premium list has been compiled
and will be in the hands of the
printers this week. . The entries
for livestock and agricultural
exhibits may be made at once
with the secretary. George B,

IMPROVED MAIL SERVICE
Coaches to Be Made Clean.
The new compressed air clean
ing plant of the Condon branch,
as mentioned in The Globe two
weeks ago, will be put into com
mission tomorrow, and the
coaches of the "flyer" will be as
clean as any Pullman traveling
in the United States. The plant
has a pressure of ni nety pounds,
thus enabling it to make all par
ticles of dust vanish before it
It will also prove a great inno
vation in the way of a germ
killer, thus insuring the patrons
of the company the best and
safest traveling accommodations.
Heavy Rain and Lightning Do
Considerable Damage In
Mayville Neighborhood.
An electrical storm raged
throughout this section Wednes
day evening and did considerable
damage in some parts of the
county. At Condon copious
showers fell, but in the Thirty-j
mile neighborhood a waterspout,
claimed by some to be the
largest that ever occurred in
that rection, played havoc with
property.
The worst of the spout struck
in the BucKnorn section, near
the Wehrli place. Thirty-mile
was changed into a raging tor
rent, and at the Max Smith place
the current is said to have been
so strong that it washed out a
barn and sent some of the tim
bers careering against the house,
doing considerable damage. Sam
McGilvray, the roadmaster, is
reported to have lost two valu
able cows. The road leading
from Thirty-mile and passing
near the McGilvray place was
washed out for quite a distance.
A. Shaffer, early Thursday morn
insr. lost a wheatstack, which
was set on fire by lightning.

Condon and Points on Colum
bia Southern Benefit
by New Schedule.
The inauguration of a more
adequate mail service between
Condon and points on this branch
and those on the Columbia South'
em railway took place last Tues
day and is proving beneficial to
business interests here. The
movement for the establishment
of better mail facilities was first
mentioned in The Globe two
weeks asro. Heretfoore it took
three days to get return mail
between points on these lines.
This slow sytem of mail delivery
was due to the fact that the
Pendleton local did not stop at
Arlington so as to take the branch
mail and connect at Biggs.
Now a closed sack is made up
by the mail clerk on the Condon
branch, placed on train No. 7 at
Arlington and carried the same
day to Wasco, Moro, Grass Val
ley and other points.
