ACT OF BOARD OF REGENTS
Agree to Supervise bat Refuse Cash
Aid Fight May Eosue in
the Legislature
SALEM, Or., July 1. The ard
of regents of Oregou normal schools
has voted to recommend to the leg
islature that Drain Normal School be
abandoned and that appropriations
be made for Monmouth, Ashland and
Weston only. This actiou was taken
by a vote of live to four, the four fa
voring the reduction of the number
to two. Secretary of State Benson
and Colonel Hofer advocated the
maintenance of four normals, V. B.
Ayer, Governor Chamberlain, E, C,
Speifcer and H. J. Maier stood for re
duction of the number 10 two. Sup
erintendent Ackerman led the fight
for the reduction to three, und w
aided by E. E. Bragg and Stephen
Jewell and also by Benson and Hofer
after the motion to maintain all fou
had been lost. Mr. Ayer indicated
his Intention to make a minority re
port still advocating reduction to
two.
The Drain school may decide not to
reopen next fall. There Is a possi
bility that the people of Drain will
continue to maintaiu the Bchool The
board agreed to supervise the school
and keep it under favor as a state
institution If the people of Drain
cared to maintain it. For the pres
ent no faculty Vas elected for the
school and the annual budget will
not include any provisions for th
Drain institution.
The board agreed to give the
Drain school district free use of the
normal building for a public school
Superintendent Ackerman argued
that the state is naturally divided in
to three parts. Eastern, Western and
Southern Oregon and that conven
lence required the maintenance of
three normals.
Presidents Ressler and French
were re-elected at Monmouth and
Weston, respectively, and Henry M
a-haefer. formerly president of
Washington State Normal, was elect
ed president at Ashlond.
It was ordered that the entrance
requirement be advanced one year
niakine the normal course a nve-yeu
course as compared with what it has
been In the past. It was also ordered
that English be carried through ev
. ery year of the normal course.

Of course, the board has no power to
iscontlnue any of the schools, but
they have recommended that the leg
islature do so and they refused to
elect a faculty for the Drain school,
Ithough they elected a faculty for
the Monmouth school, as well as for
Ashland and Weston, although the
omnouth and Drain schools were
placed in the same category by the
last legislature. Secretary of State
Benson, and Col. E. Hofer, of Salem,
stood firmly for all four schools, but
ere overruled by the other members
the bonrd of regents.
Since the Institution at Drnln was
established as a State Normal school
r 250 graduates have been turn
out there, and nearly all of the
e the school has been without
state aid. A splendid class of 14
as graduated there this year and a
uch larger class is in prospect for
coming year. In addition to
Is the people of Drain and vicinity
ave already pledged sufficient funds
keep the school running until next
arfti. More than this, we have not
et heard one absolutely sound rea
son why all four of the Normal
hools should not be kept running.
the recent election the citizens of
cgon voted $125,000 annually for
e support of ths State university,
hlch Is more than twice the amount

rising generation, if they Ignore this
recommendation of the present board
f regents and continue all four
schools and allow them a reasonable
nnual appropriation for properly

With but two Normal schools, as
some of the board wants, the annual
expense to the state will not be less
ban $50,000, while for three schools
will perhaps be a little more, r or
arrying on the four schools instead

Special to the Evening Review.
PORTLAND. Or., July Con
vinced that the evidence submitted
by the government cannot convict
their client, the attorneys for J. H.
liooth today introduced no testimony
tor the defense. Malarkey is now
making an address to the Jury. He
will be followed by Webster, and the
coho will probably go to the jury to
morrow afternoon.
V'diHsdiiyn ProTeedliiKK.
Portland Oregonlan, July 2:
I'nlted Slates Judge Wolverton yes
terday denied the motion of the de
fense for an instructed verdict of ac
quittal in the James Henry Booth
bribery trial. The motion was pro
posed immediately alter me govern
ment rested its case and alleged that
the prosecution had not presented
sufficient evidence to justify or sus
tain a verdict.
Judge Wolverton ruled that the
agreement alleged by Bridges to
have been made among the three was
relevant and should go to the jury
as corroborating and leading up to
the subsequent agreement alleged to
have been formed between Krlbs and
Booth. The court announced that
the Jury would be Instructed that It
was not pertinent for that body to
ouslder the alleged $2Ti a selection
agreement between Booth. Bridges
and Krlbs in establishing the proof
of the agreement between Booth and
Krlbs.
Mr. Malarkey demanded that the
court Instruct the "jury to that effect
before the defense proceeded wltTi its
case, but United States Attorney Mc-
Court objected to the delivery of any
instructions to the jury before the
testimony had all been Introduced
Judge Wolverton sustained the ob
jection of the government and
fused to deliver the desired Instruc
tions before the case was finally sub
niltted to the jury. The application
of Mr. Malarkey for the wlthdrawa
of the testimony of Mr. Bridges re
lating to the alleged agreement be
tween himself. Booth and Krlbs was
also denied by Judge Wolverton.
May Recall WltnesscM.
The government rested Its case at
1 1 o'clock yesterday morning, but
in answer to a question from Mr. Ma
larkey, Judge Becker admitted that
the prosecution might deBlre to recal
ex-State Land Agent West and Joh
(il vens. a timberlnnd locator. T
this program Mr. Malarkey demurrei
aid insisted that the goverumen
conclude Its introduction of all di
rect testimony before requiring th
defense to present its case. The sub
stance of what Mr. West would t
tlfy was stipulated by opposing coun
sel and Judge Becker concluded that
the testimony of GIvens was not ma
terial to the government. With thl
understanding the prosecution close
its case.
The final witnesses for the govern
ment were Walter S. Threlkeld
George W. Kruse and O. A. Houst,
who. In January. 1 90. filed tlinbei
land applications on three quarter-
see! ions of land tii at were Includf-d
one of Krlbs' cancelled applica
tions before Krlbs learned that his
election had been rejected. The
purpose of this testimony was to
show that prior to the alleged agree
ment between Krlbs and Booth. th(
former lost valuable lands by not be
ing ail vised of their cancel la tion sc
that he could protect himself hy
making subsequent filings before thf
lands were seized by outsiders under
the timber and stone act. These
witnesses testified that after making
final proof on their claims they sold
the land to Krlbs for $9'.0 each
Krib being required to purchase the
land from the entryn.en In order to
clear the title to the land which he
had sold to other parties aftet
making the purchase thereof from I
the state and before his select Ions
had been approved at Washington.
Mahtrkey Agitln Overrule!.
Mr. Malarkey Interposed an objec
tion to the testimony of these wit
nesses and demanded that the pur
pose of its i nt rod net Inn should lie
limited to show that Kribs lost these
lands: that such testimony was ad
missible for no other ptirpose since
the evidence was collateral and in no
way related to the case. Judjr
Wolverton held that the evidence
wan ertlnent to the case for two
reason: First, because It proved that
Krlbs lost the lands and was corro
borative of the testimony of Krlbc
on the MiU4 subject; Steoad, because
It showed the rummer of filing appli
cations at th land otHcs after tb
original selections had been patted
on by the government.
It is general!); believed that the
lurtner prosecution or me tauu-iruuu
cases at this time actually depends
on the result of the Booth trial. It
is known that the next case sched-
led to be tried is that In which ex-
State Senntor R. A. Booth and a
umber of others, including James
Henry Booth, defendant In the case
now on trial, are under inuicinieni
for alleged conspiracy to defraud the
government ot its public lauds.
Should the Jury acquit James Henry
Booth, it is not considered at all
probable that the government would
proceed with the other case iu which
nmes Henry aud his brother, K. A.
Booth, both are defendants. On the
other hand, it the Booth Jury should
fall to reach an agreemeut, the gov
ernment wants to be In position that
may retry the case Immediately.
At all eveut, It will not be long be
fore the court will adjourn for the
usual summer vacatiou period, sc
that it would be useless at this time
to set any great number of cases for
rial.

Upon arriving in Denver the Tam-
