OPENING JUST FORMALITY After Allotments Made to Yakima Indians, Xo Land Will Be Left. NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. June 23. (Special.) There will probably be no reg istration on the Yakima Indian Reserva tion this Fall, because investigation shows that after the allotments are all made to the Indians entitled to them, there will be no land remaining suitable for homesteads. This information was contained in a telegram received by the Commercial Club this afternoon from Senator Jones. The telegram reads: "Salzman reports to department that after allotments will be no lands suitable for homesteads and probably no registration. W. L. Jones."

COALSHIPPED TO NEWPORT Beach Residents Prefer Driftwood " Fireplaces, However. NEWPORT, Or., June 23. (Special.)
