Major Greenleaf and Adjutant-General Ganten beln were In Salem today looking over the proposed sites for the National Guard encampment to be held July 7 to 15. They have decided upon the Highland common, whieh, they say, is entirely satisfactory as a place for holding tho encampment. Tftey express themselves as well pleased with the arrangements the. people of Sa lem have made to aid the encampment. The location for the coming encampment was decided on today. This field is" 1450 feet Ions and 450 feet wtde, and is about a quarter of a rsile weat of the State Fair grounds. A small grove is in one corner, where the Infantry camps will be pitched.

State Hns Farms to SelL The report comes- from the office of the Clerk of the State Land Board that sales of farms owned by the state are rapidly Increasing, and that there Is an unueual amount of inquiry for farm land. Most of the inquirers are residents of the Mdddle States, those residing In Min nesota, Wisconsin and Nebraska being most numerous. The state now owno about 200 farms that have been secured through the fore closure of mortgages. These Include both grain lands and stock ranches, and are as a rule above the average In desirabil ity. They are in various parts of ttirs state, so that the Land Board is a&le to supply the wants of nearly all comers. The management of these farms has be come a Important pari of the official business of the State Land Board, and Is daily becoming more Important. Until recently, the department has kept no com plete record of tho farms under Ite con trol, and it has been impossible for the clerks to determine on short notice the cost to tho stato of each tract of land. Recently, D. F. Hardman, one of the clerks, has devised a system of keeping the records eo that he can Instantly turn to a complete record of any farm and tell an Inquirer exactly what It can be bought for. He has opened a ledger account with each farm, and knows exactly how much tho state has spent on account of the original loan, attorney's fees, court costs, repairs, etc., and how much the state has received for rent. etc'. In stead of delay in quoting prlce'-, to a would-be purchaser, the department Is ready to offer a rale when the purchaser is In the mood to Tuy. The department 1 requiring greater promptitude and exact ness on the part of its attorneys in mak ing reports, so that no items of expenee willbe lost sight of. Numerous Caies of Diphtheria.

Un profitable to Ha.ve to Feed and Carry Back the Rejected. TACOMA. Wash.. June 19. The soeclal board of inspection appointed tp examine tne Japanese emigrants entering at tnts port has completed Its labors, and has re jected 6. These, with 31 of the Japanese who came over on the Glenogle and the Breeonshlre, will be deported on the next steamer leaving port. ' It is expected that the strict and. to the steamship company, costly, examination! of ail immigrants will go Tar toward checking the tide cf undesirable Japan ese Immigration. Since the special agent announced that If the steamship company did not feed the Immigrants pending their examination, he wouM take them to a retaurant and charge their bills to the company, ..the steamship companies realize that "they are doing business at a loss. The contracts mado with agents In Japan w.ero at a low rate in consideration, that the agents would feed the passengers. When, however, the steamship companies found that they were compelled, to feed them on this side three days to a month tho profits quickly disappeared, and on top of this heavy charge, they will have to transport all the rejected ones back to Japan at their own expense. One of the officers of the steamship Duke of Fife says that the fact of so many men being rejected quickly spread through Japan; also the fact that there were no tasy positions to be had In this country. He says he looks for very little immigration from now on. The critical condition of affairs In China. Is causing the Japanese officials to discourage the emigration, as they look forward to need ing all the men they have, in the near future. v IRRIGATION DITCH BROKE.

William Middleton, secretary of the Western Central Labor Union, assisted by a committee, has succeeded m raising just one-half of the required amount to Insure the erection of the proposed labor temple at Seattle, and it is expected the other half will be forthcoming before many weeks. The first payment of $725fl on tho building site will be made today. Another effort Is being made to have the shingle mills close for two or three weeks In July. It is customary for all the mills to shut down for the Fourth, and the proposition Is to curtail the cut by keeping the saws quiet for several weeks. The reason is that labor troubles and strikes In tha East have delayed buUdlng operations, and materially re duced the demand for lumber and shin gles.
