The first car on the electric line between Portland slid Forest Grove was run Christmas day. A new $70,000 high school build ing In Albany next year Is assured by the action taken at the annual school maetlng last week. Canby poultry-raisers are prepar ing to organise an qoNoclatlon and to hold a poultry a b o i^ b e latter part of January. The Mothers A Teacher«' Club of Milwaukee expect to open a reading room and library shortly after New Year. Books for use of the room are expect«*d from the state library. The Firat State Bank of Milwau kee has filed articles of Incorpora tion with the clerk of Clackamas county, the capital stock being placed at $19,000. It has cost the people of the city of Portland over a million and a half of dollars to make Christmas merry for others and to bring good cheer to themselves. Rodney L. Weat, of Portland, died of ptomaine poisoning after eating hla Christmas dinner. None of the family were affected and Just what portion of the food contain«© the poison germs Is unknown. The family of Walter Johnson, now at the Salem penitentiary await ing execution by hanging, as a pen alty for the murder of Elmer Per due, will make every effort to have Oovernor Chamberlain commute the sentence to life Imprisonment. The third annual convention of the Or«*gon National Guard was held In Portland Monday, In the armory. Addresses were delivered by mem bers o f the organization and regular army covering matters pertaining to the National Guard and the «nllltary profession and were of exceptional Interest. Alumni and ex-studenta of the Ore gon Agricultural College residing In Umatilla county have formed an as sociation and gave their first ban quet Tuesday night. Among the guests who were present was Presi dent Kerr of the college. The mem bers of the association hope to make this banquet an annual event. An enlarged picture and a dia mond ring or a rocker chair for good measure, all for $2.98, w«?re the In ducements held forth by a trio of smooth-talking fakers who Induced a large number of Roseburg women to part with $2.98 each. After coll«»ct- Ing the $2.98, the fakers told their victims to call at a local store and get the prizes. Here they discovered the merchant knew nothing of the scheme. Appropriations aggregating almost $800,000 will be ask«© of the com ing session of the legislature for the maintenance of the State Insane Asylum and for repairs and Improve ments for the ensuing year. This is an Increase of $200,000 over the appropriations of two years aeo, or an Increase of 33 per cent. The re port asks for appropriations upon the assumption that no branch asylum will be provided for In Eastern Ore gon. The percentage of recoveries, computed upon the number received during the period. Is 22 per cent. Senator Fulton held a conference with the Director of the Reclamation Lorvtce, Sunday in Washington, rela tive to requests he has received from settlers on the Klamath Irrigation project, for an extension of time for making water payments to the Gov ernment. Settlers were under the Impression that their entries would be cancelled If payment were not made by May next. Director Newell Informed Mr. Fulton that payments on the first unit of this project will become due May 1, 1909, but set tlers will have one year’s grace In which to pay up. Therefore, settlers will not be In danger of having en tries canceled unless they are de linquent with payments after May 1, 1910. It is the policy of the de partment to give settlerB two full sea sons of Irrigation before requiring them to make the first payment. In the suit of the State of Oregon against the Columbia Southern Irri gation Company for the reclamation of an extensive tract In Eastern Ore gon. the state offered testimony to show that while the project proposed | the dev«»lopment of about 27,000 acres, there was only sufficient water for Irrigating about 1600 acres. It will be on this showing that the state expects to be authorized to re scind the contract that was originally entered Into with the Three Sisters’ Irrigation Company, which subse quently transferred Its Interests to the Columbia Southern Irrigating Company. A law Is being drafted to determine the water rights o f the state under the direction of a com mittee representing the Oregon Con servation Commission and which has called to Its assistance several prom inent authorities connected with the Government irrigation service. Christmas was made as merry as possible for the Inmates of the six public Institutions located In Salem. At the Insane asylum, where 1500 unfortunates are cared for, a musical entertainment and Christmas tree was given Christmas eve. An exoelent Turkey dinner was served. At the penitentiary a special dinner was served, minus the turkey, but with an abundance of roast meat and plum pudding. Christmas eve the prisoners gave an entertainment In the chapel. The Christmas tree In the Reform School was In the form of a huge bell, made of evergreen boughs. At the close of the exercises presents were distributed, each boy receiving some useful gift, together with a bag of candy and a box of nuts. The day was also observed at the Mute School and the Blind School, where everything was done to bring cheer to the unfortunate children at these lnnstitutlons. New To-day Wet weather i« now «1 ere.
