THE 3101KXIKG- OKEGOMAN, TUESDAY, JANUARY 3?, 1920 SPECIAL AGENTS TO FACE TRIAL TODAY Lake County Prosecutor to Take Charge of Cases. STATE CALLS FOR ACTION Slessago From Attorney-General Demands Trial of Sleutbs "Who Aro Accused of Baiting. SALEM, Or.. Jan. 26. (Special.) The trials of Charles Burton and Frank Davis, state agents, under ar rest at Lakeview on charges of using liquor as "bait" in running down vio lators of the prohibition laws, have been set for tomorrow, and will be conducted under the direction of T. S. McKinney, district attorney of Lake county, according to a telegram re ceived from the latter official today by Attorney-General Brown. Jn his message to the attorney-general the Lakeview official said he had been ill for several days, but had re covered sufficiently to assume charge of the prosecutions. Second Mennanre Emphatic. Failure on the part of District At torney McKLinncy to answer a pre vious telcirram sent to him by Attor nev-General Brown regarding the prosecution of Burton and Davis, -.aimed the state officials to send him another message vesterday. In this telegram the attorney-general called attention to the law describing the duties of district attorneys and cited complaints against him filed with Governor Olcott. The attorney-general's latest tele gram to District Attorney McKinney reads: "Message to governor from number of citizens seems to misunderstand instructions telegraphed. I asked that you exercise power conferred by sec tion 1796, Lord's Oregon laws, and appear on behalf of the state and con trol and direct prosecution. Citizens state ill message to governor that Burton and Davis freely gave whisky to whomsoever would drink, and that this occurred in numerous public places. If agents violated the law they should be prosecuted. Prosecution. Is Ordered. "Agents of the governor have no more authority to offend against the terms of the prohibition laws than the humblest citizen in the land. See to if that the law follows its true course and that it Is not used as an instrument for vengeance, but to achieve right and Justice. If these men violated the provisions of the prohibition law, birt thought they were in the right, this would not con stitute a defense but might be con sidered in mitigation of punishment. "The governor concurs in the views herein expressed." Although some reports reaching Salem indicate that the arrest of Bur ton and Davis was brought about to embarrass Sheriff Woodcock of Lake county in the enforcement of the pro hibition laws, Attorney-General Brown and Governor Olcott join in the be lief that if the agents have violated the laws they should be proscuted, and that such prosecution should be conducted by the regularly elected district atorney of the county in which the crime is alleged to have been committed. summer school the coming year are being made now.

County Banks to Finance Loan Se curing Importation Direct of-5 0 to 6 0 Heifers From. Island. TILLAMOOK, Or., Jan. 26. (Spe cial.) The Tillamook county Guern sey club held its annual meeting on January 20 and elected Erwin Harri son president, H. E. Tucker vice president and Homer Mason secre tary-treasurer. The directors are Rudolph Zwelfel. George Williams and J. L. Gay. It was voted to hold regular meetings this year on the third Tuesday in each month. The club decided to take over 50 or 60 head of Guernsey heifers which are bing imported direct from the island by the State Guernsey club.

Clack amas, Clatsop, Tillamook and Wash ington counties will take the major portion of these heifers, the local club in each one of these counties having guaranteed the purchase. Several local bulls will be consigned for sale at the time these heifers are distributed. The local banks have signified their willingness to back up the Juvenile Calf club and the Guern sey club went on record as favoring this work and will attempt to And pure-bred calves for all the boys and girls who wish to take up calf club work.

Losey of Port land, and Miss May Schmidt of Se attle, journeyed to Vancouver today to be married.

The wedding ceremony was per formed by Cedric Miller, justice of the peace, and the couple, -believing that no one would ever find that they had been married, went their way re joicing. LEWISTON. Idaho, Jan. 26. (Spe cial.) O. M. Elliott, president of Lew- iston normal school, recently prepared a questionnaire relative to teachers' salaries which was sent to the school superintendents of the 44 counties of Idaho, and the returns compiled by the normal office furnish interesting riguree. The average salary for teachers of one-room rural schools is $99.80, and the average for principals of three to five-room rural and town schools is $135.41. Only nine counties of the 30 reporting have enough teachers for all the schools. This represents a shortage of 77 teachers in 20 of the counties. A total of 963 teachers in the coun ties reporting hold second or third grade certificates, which means in sufficient preparation for a large number of the more important teach ing positions. Third grade certifi cates are issued to those who have only six to nine weeks of professional training after leaving high school, and second-grade certificates may be obtained with only 18 weeks of train ing. The poorly trained teacher in many cases is receiving as much sal ary as the normal graduate. In commenting on this situation, President Elliott states that the only way of curing the evil of inferior preparation is to adopt a graduated salary schedule with a minimum sal ary of $80 to $85 a month for teachers holding third grade certificates to minimum of $120 a month for those with a normal school diploma. SEATTLE, "Waeh., Jan. 26. (Spe cial.) Colonel Roland H. Hartley of Everett, candidate for the republican gubernatorial nomination, returned this morning from a two weeks' trip throughout eastern Washington. He spent most of his time In Walla Walla and Spokane, making a series of speeches in the latter city. Hartley reached Spokane just after the formal announcement of the gubernatorial candidacy of Senator E. T. Coman and after the publication of statements by two or three other rivals that they proposed making a campaign of the state by automobile. Coman's candidacy will make no change in Hartley's plans, the Everett man announced this morning. He is supremely confident that he has a strong working organization in Spo kane and northeastern Washington and that he is in no danger of losing. Kirkmnn Candidacy Evident. While in southeastern "Washington, Colonel Hartley ran across traces of the candidacy of Representative W. H. KArkman for lieutenant-governor. Thus far Kirkman, who is an old time resident of Walla Walla and who has extensive property holdings in Seattle, has made no formal an nouncement of his candidacy, but Walla Walla republicans are making strenuous efforts to get him into the race and start him off with a big fol lowing in the district south of the Snake river. Just as Colonel Hartley returned to western Washington. Representative Pliny L. Allen of Seattle reached Spo kane on a business trip, with which he is sprinkling a bit of personal politics. Allen was mentioned as a candidate for lieutenant-governor, and after business conditions permit him to do so it is possible he will enter the race. In any event, Allen will feel out east side sentiment during the coming week, and if he decides to make the run will come home with an idea of the men whom he can ask to lead his fight. Allen Ma Have Other Aaplrationa. If Allen does not run for lieutenant- governor there is a possibility he may elect to retain a residence in the Wal lingford hill district and seek a re publican nomination for state repre sentative from the 42d district. This section of the country, which com prises the territory lying north of the canal, elected two democrats in 1918, and Allen believes that if he runs he can reverse the judgment of the vot ers in the north end. However, he is not certain whether he will seek the leutenant-governor's berth or a re turn to the legislature. In political circles ie is expected the homecoming of Governor Louis F. Hart this week will add new interest to the gubernatorial race. Hartley to Visit Home. Colonel Hartley planned today to go to his home in Everett, then make trip through the northwest later in the week. Though he will not open headquarters or make a speech making campaign before the repub lican state convention is held. Colonel Hartley is pretty apt to continue an active programme of visitations. Governor Hart has said all along that he would begin active work for the nomination hefore July, but as chief executive he is apt to get about the state considerably before that time. With his return, the Hart supporters are expected to pick up interest, especially so lr nis wasn ington mission gives promise of suc cess for the reclamation programme submitted to congress. Other gubernatorial candidates who may enter the race are not showing early activity. The same condition prevails with relation to the can didates for lieutenant-governor. Clatskanie Gets Second Bank. RAINIER. Or., Jan. 26. (Special.) The First National Rank of Clatskanie has received a charter for a capitali zation of $40,000. Norman Merrill is named as the principal in the applica tion for a charter. This is the second bank for Clatskanie. n n Marketing Committee at Spokane Convention Favors Measure. Antis Expected to Win Out. SPOKANE, Wash., Jan. 26. (Spe cial.) A fight to the finish over the Kenyon-Kendrick packing bills will be staged tomorrow on the opening day of the 23d annual convention of the American National Livestock as sociation, when the marketing com mittee makes a report which is in process of preparation now. The committee will present a resolution favoring the Kenyon-Kendrick bills. which it will seek to have the con vention indorse. A fiirht is going to be made on this resolution by the producers and packers who will carry their oppo sition to the bill to the floor of the convention. More than 48 hours be fore the convention assembled the producers and packers were on the ground lining up their cohorts for what they believe will be a knockout fight. That the "politicians" of the asso elation will lose, and that the "pro ducers" of the association will win. Is the prediction of the "producers, who look for a lop-sided victory. A vote of four to one against the reso lution is confidently predicted in the gossip in which cow men from all parts of the United- States are join ing in the lobby of the Davenport hotel. The "producers" want their product to go from the range to the table without the interference of the "poli tician," according to the succinct phraseology of some of the south western cow men. r - - 3i3 UrW Thrills Big Double Bill!!
