ANARCHIST HURLS KNIFE.
Crowds were so great and so unruly
at the registration for lands of the
Berthold Indian reservation in North
Dakota that the registrar threatened
to put them out of the building on ac-
count of their violence.
San Franiiaco Reds Defy Police and
Start Riot.
San Francisco Efforts of the police
to break up a meeting of alleged an
archists here Sunday showed net re
suits of three riot calls, the arrest of
10 men, and narrow escape of two
firemen from a hurled knife and a de-
tective badly bitten in the hand.
For several months the "anarch
ists" have been holding Sabbath meet
ings on the sidewalk in the Latin
quarter. The Italian Roman Catholic
church is not far distant, and a wor
shipper on h's way to mass heard le
marks from one of the speakers that
caused him to lodge a protest over the
telephone with the police.
Two detectives were sent to investi
gate, and were hooted at when they
nterrupted the speaker. Thereupon
the officers placed Michael Cenetrone
and Philip Perone under arrest and
started to take them to jail.
With a yell of rage that brought
everybody in the neighborhood on the
run, the 200 assembled "anarchists"
charged the detectives, who were
forced to take refuge in a Broadway
tire station.
A riot call brought a 'squad of pa
trolmen to the scene and seven other
men were taken into custody. They,
too, were lodged in the fire station.
As the big outer door was closing
on the retiring police, the alleged
leader of the "anarchists" created a
sensation in front of the truck house.
Shouting at the top of his voice, he
jerked off his gaudy straw hat, threw
it to the ground and danced madly on
it. Then, whipping out a huge clasp
knife, he sprung the blade and hurled
the weapon through the closing door.
It was a 75-foot throw, but the
knife went true as a bullet and
whistled past the ears of Firemen F.
M. Hogan and Jack Edgar, imbedding
itself in a wall.

Japanese Admiral Presents Costly
Souvenir to Warrior,
New York Admiral Togo paid a
warrior's tribute to Colonel Roosevelt.
Apparently Roosevelt, the fighter, had
appealed to the Japanese admiral,
rather than Roosevelt, the peace
maker, for when he marched up Saga
more Hill to meet the ex-president he
carried Mr. Roosevelt a two-foot min
iature of a soldier's armor.
' This unique souvenir was of glisten
ing metal, exquisitely carved, and was
encased in a heavy mahogany box,
adorned with Japanese colors.
Admiral Togo had kept the pros
pective gift secret, and had apparent
ly carried it on his travels from the
time he left Japan.
The Japanese admiral journeyed to
Oyster Bay on a special train on the
Long Island road. Colonel Roosevelt,
in a dark suit and immaculate white
vest, stepped out on the veranda and
greeted the admiral, who wore a
white service uniform.
"Delighted to meet you !" excaimed
the colonel, his face beaming.
The party filed into the broad recep
tion room and the admiral presented
his gift. The colonel expressed his
gratitude in a broadside of superla
tives.
After luncheon the party gathered
on the wide veranda whence sounds of
frequent laughter and the vigorous
voice of Mr. Roosevelt often issued
The luncheon was strictly private.
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AND
PROGRESS OF OUR HOME STATE
NEW FIRE RULE RIGID.
Precautions Must Be Taken in Burn
ing of Forest Slashings.
Salem New regulations covering
the burning of slashings have been is
sued by the State board of forestry
and incorporated into a press bulletin
In resolutions the board it is point
ed out that there are instances tend
ing to show that the law has not been
duly observed and that public safety
as well as private-property has been
endangered.
The regulations became effective
August 10 and are as follows:
""Burning of log piles, stumps, or
brush heaps without permit as pro
vided for under section 7 of the Ore
gon forest fire law, is permissible only
where the material to be burned is a
safe distance from other inflammable
material and where the ground sur
rounding the log piles, stumps, or
brush heaps is cleared of any substance
which will allow of fire spreading to
adjacent wooded, brush, or slash-1
covered land, either the property of
the parties engaged in burning or
that of another.
"Adequate precautions and personal
control are interpreted as meaning
that all fires set without permit musi
be continually watched both night and
day by a sufficient number of men on
the ground for that purpose, and
should fires escaie steps must be
taken at once to extinguish it.
"Burning done in violation of these
regulations will submit the party or
parties concerned to prosecution under
the fire laws. "
GOLD STAMPEDES BEND.
City Nearly Unpeopled By Report of
Rich Strike."
Bend What is characterized as the
most remarkable gold rush experienced
in Oregon for many years burst into
full swing at Bend last week. As a
result of the discovery of quartz,
which assays have shown to c mtain a
commercially valuable amount of gold,
the town is all but deserted. The
gold-bearing quartz was discovered 12

Victoria, B. C. Floods have caused

Arrivals from Shanghai by the Em
press of Japan say that the distress
which followed the floods is so great
that children are being exposed for

One eye witness from Hankow tells
of seeing a band of refugees camped

for a boy and eight strings of cash

Japs After Canal Trade.
Victoria, B. C. News was brought
by the Lmpress of Japan that the
Osaka Shosen Kaisha has in view the
establishment of a steamship line via
the Panama canal when it is com
pleted. At the annual meeting held
shortly before the empress liner de
parted, Nakagawa and Chiura, offi
cials of the company, were ordered to
visit the Panama zone in the United
States and South America to investi
gate trade possibilities in this connec
tion. The Japanese line proposes to
run into New York via the canal.

Judiciary Commission Sees Lack
"Stability."
Salem That the jurisdiction of the
judiciary commission on the revision
of the judicial system does not extend
to the recall of the judiciary is one of
the conclusions reached at a meeting
of that body. No definite action
along the line of its prospective work
was taken up by the commission, fur
ther than organization of committees.
Informally there was considerable
discussion of the questions with which
the commission must grapple and an
abundance of varying theories were
advanced, indicating that the commis
sion has a task before it to reach dis
tinct conclusions. There seems to be
harmony, however.
A feeling has been put into expres
sion by some of the members of the
commission that their present labors
are more or less futile, owing to the
possibility of repeated changes in the
system.
Even though the present commis
sion prepares an elaborate bill, after
months of study, and this bill be
comes a law, the constitutional amend
ment allows full opportunity for the
legislature or the people to revolution
ize the judicial system again in the
course of the following two years
"Stability" is considered the real
goal to be attained for the courts by
these members of the commission and
the possibility of repeated changes is
not encouraging to them.
miles west of here on the edge of the
forest reserve among the foothills of
the Cascade mountains. Several mer
chants deserted their stores and joined
the army of gold seekers. In the van
of prospectors are several ex-miners
recently come from Alaska, whose en
thusiasm concerning the discoverie
has had much to do with the general
excitement.
As far as can be ascertained, th
, first discovery, upon which work was
actually done, was made by Car! Lade
wig, a Bend man who has spent much
of his time prospecting in the adja
cent country. Ladewig let number
of local men of means into his secret
and a group of claims was taken. It
was not until several weeks after the
inauguration of this secret work OiHt
its nature became generally known.
Then the rush started.
Assays from the original group of
claims, which have been christened
the Golden Raes, have run from $5 to
$10 a ton, free milling ore. However
the rock assayed thus far has been
taken entirely from the surface. Sev
eral tunnels are being driven, and
according to the miners working
them, the appearance of the rock en
countered is becoming more promis
ing. Already over 50 claims have
been staked.
PAST WILL BE TOLD.
POTATO SHOW PROPOSED.'
Senator Treasure Ship.
Seattle. Seven hundred thousand
dollars' worth of Alaska gold was
brought to Seattle by the steamship
Senator. The gold was shipped from
the Nome and Iditarod districts. Half
of this gold will be sent direct to the
smelter in San Francisco and the re
mainder is consigned to Seattle banks.
Harrisburg Women Will Prepare Ex
hibit This Month.
Harrisburg A "potato show" is
being arranged by the women of the
Improvement club for the final week
of August. Unusual interest is already
created and unheard-of delicacies are
daily being concocted by local talent
from the common "murphy" for dis
play in connection with the show.
This section of the Willamette val
ley has long had the reputation of
producing an excellent potato, and the
product this year is exceptionally fine. I
Interest in the culture of this crop
has been materially increased through
the praise given to the quality and
yield by an expert potato-grower of
Greeley, Colo., the greatest potato
growing center of the UniUd States.
Alta Mine Gets New Equipment.
Grants Pass The owners of the
Alta mine near Kerby have just re
turned from Portland, where they pur
chased a steam plant to operate a 40'
ton Chile mill upon the millsite ad
jacent to the mining property. The
property is new and has one cut 150
feet above the mill where the ore is
sent down by gravity. The ore shoot
is about 20 feet wide. The mill car
nes six rolls with a crushing capacity
of 7,200 pounds.
Tannery Will Be Built.
Tillamook Paying $600 an acre.
Peter Remer and John Ponkner, of
Portland, have bought five acres of
land on the Trask river, just outside
the city limits, with the intention of
establishing a tannery. They expect
to begin construction work within two
weeks, and to have their plant in
operation by spring. They are buying
hides in the meantime. Twenty-five
men will be employed in the factory.
Historical Institute to Have Noted
Speakers at Astoria,!
Salem -Several more speakers who
will participate in the historical edu

COOS ENLISTS MORE MEN.
County's Naval Reserve to Be Trained
on Cruiser Boston.
Marshfield Coos county now has
better representation in the Oregon
naval militia than any other county in
the state. With the organization of
the new division at Bandon the county
has three divisions in the reserve and,
the Coos Bay band besides. The total
number of enlisted men is about 150.
Twenty-five from Marshfield and 10
from the new Bandon division have

which will be here August 16 to remain
two -months. In that time, all the
men will receive training on the ves

grain center of the state. The cereal

late, and on the board it has jumped
up almost a dollar during the past

The crop in this section is unusually
heavy, and the cash price is high.

N0YE.MBKR :) DESIGNATED
AS THANKSGIVING DAY
Washington, D. C- President Taft
will designate Thursday, November
30, as Thanksgiving Day, despite the
request of bankers that the president
name Thursday, November 23.
It has always been the custom to
designate the last Thursday in Novem
ber as Thanksgiving Day, and Mr.
Taft will adhere to that custom. The
bankers wanted November 23 se
lected, declaring that the making of
November 30 a legal holiday would
seriously interfere with their work.
The law requires that National hanks
make their statements to tin Treasury
department on the first day of every
month, and a holiday falling on the
last day of the month would be most
inconvenient, said the hankers.
There was some doubt as to what
Thursday in November would tie se
lected this year, as the month con
tains five Thursdays. The White
House has been besieged by theatrical
managers and those in charge of col-
ege football games to settle this
doubt, so that definite arrangements
can be made for the array of secial
performances and sjsirts that mark
the day.
