won by a length, with Wallace L. second
and Will Wehrung third. The winner
was brought out and shown to the -people
In the. grandstand, .when the .aji- ,

TO CUT DOWN PRINTING.
Senator Daly, of Benton, Says State
Pays Too Much.
CORVALLIS. Sept. 15. (Special.)
When- asked, for his vlewa on new legis
lation In Oregon, Senator John D. Daly,
of Benton County, said:
"I have no bills, no plans, and I know
of no proposed legislation, except -such
as is being freely discussed In the news
papers, that will come before the next
session of the Legislature.
"You ask what is my opinion regarding
flat salaries for state officers. Well, I
don't see any good place to build an opin
ion that Isn't wobbly. The salaries pro
vided for by the constitution are all too
small. If we make any change we must
raise them, and every dollar we raise
them comes out of the taxpayer, flat.
A few years ago a howl was raised for
flat salaries for county officers, because
it was thought some of the Sheriffs were
making too much money in fees. Well,
they got flat salaries for county officers,
and the result is the doubling of the
taxes in many of the smaller counties
and the increasing of the taxes in all
the counties, while litigation has become
practically free for all, without money
and without price. It Is as safe an axiom
as any in Euclia that fees will be abol
ished when there is no one interested in
keeping them up.
"The State Printer is the officer most
generally discussed unfavorably by tho
public. Let ua see hoV much-of it he
deserves. The constitution provides that
the rates to be paid to him for sucti
printing shall be fixed by law.' They
are practically so fixed. They are 'Union'
rates, and no Legislature will ever vote
to reduce those rates. The constitution
also provides that "he shall perform all
tho public printing for the state which
may be provided by law, and here is
the leak at the bunghole In the State
Printer's office.
"Tons of stuff are printed that is abso
lutely useless and, although I have no
data, I believe that a large proportion
of the printing is not 'provided by law.'
The officer or officers who order it done
follow custom, and not law, and so the
work Increases a little every year. Then
the printer Is abused for demanding reg
ular rates for work he has done:
"Much of the printing is done for the
state officers. Now I don't believe the
state should be required to furnish legal
advice or printing for the state officers.
Let them pay for their legal advice, as
men in o'ther walks of life have to, and
then we can dispense with the office of
Attorney-General, which is neither useful
nor ornamental. Let them pay for their
printing, as men in all other walks of
life also have to do. This will be legal
and constitutional, and then the State
Printer won't be able to raise his family
respectably on the emoluments of his of
fice. The elaborate and costly bi-annual
reports of state officers, and the. heads
of state Institutions, and of everybody
who has anything to do for the state
many of them several hundred pages In
extent, and some of them expensively
bound are utterly useless, for they sim
ply tell of the good things that have
been done. The people do not want them.
Page after page of the stuff le bosh and
was better done by some one else before.
They are never read, except by the au
thor, and to get it the dear man digs
through encyclopedias and dictionaries,
forgetting that every time his pen
scratches he Is adding m's for the
printer, as I am doing now; and that re
minds me that I must quit,"
Pulp-MHI Will Rebnild.
ASTORIA,. Or., Sept. 15. (Special.) A
force -of men has arrived at Skamokawa
to begin rebuilding the pulp-mill near
there, which was recently destroyed by
fire. Work In the logging camp that sup
plied the mill will also be resumfd as
soon as possible.

WOMAN'S INFLUENCE.
The Average Mother Is Serious, TJn-
selfish and Loving-.
-
Chicago Inter Ocean.
While It Is a common theory that no
matter what the. father, and husband may
be, the mother and wife must rise supe
rior to her environments, the fact re
mains that the home is as much the
man's as the woman's, and he Is relieved
of none of his responsibilities because so
ciety assigns it to her as iher special
province. No man has a right to shirk
his duty to his children because, per
chance, he has a good wife and they have
a good mother. The wife and- motherS
rules by love, If she rule at all; the
father and husband may rule by author
ity as well as love. Tho wife and mother
who finds that her love Is losing Its in
fluence over her children requires, but Is
too often denied, the disciplinary author
ity of the husband and father. Ihe
wrecks of children may be traced oftener
to the failure of the husband to come to
the assistance of the wife than to any
fault of the latter.
Too much, we believe, is said of the
shortcomings of women in these days.
Those mothers and wives who are neglect
ful of their homes constitute the minor
ity. The average American mother Is
serious, unselfish and loving. If this
wero not the case we should hot have,
as we have today, a higher average of
young manhood than any other country
on earth. The assumption that wives and
mothers are mainly to blame for the way
wardness of children 13 neither reasonable
nor fair. It is due usually to a few ex
ceptional cases which, because of their
exceptional character, "deeply impress the
observer. In general, woman's devotion
and love do not change as the child grows
old, save for the better.
Pre-Columbia Books.
New York Times. '
When hieroglyphs are mentioned, one
naturally thinks of the. records of ancient
Egypt; yet before Columbus landed on
these shores the Aztecs of ancient Mexico
had a most elaborate system of writing in
hieroglyphs. They formed long strips of
deerskin Into books folded screen fashion,
on which were depicted signs and repre
sentations of ceremonials. These old pre
Columbian books the Spaniards greedily
collected and burned so that but 10 are
known today In the whole world.
One of these has only recently been
found in one of the libraries of Europe,
and an exact copy presented to the" Amer
ican Museum of Natural History In this
city, where it will shortly be placed on
exhibition. The text represents the his
tory of the lives of several individuals.
One recounts the life of the Lary Three
Glints, who has two husbands and a child,
and goes through elaborate ceremonies.
Another portion of this old ''Codex," as
it is called, treats of the life of a great
lord and conqueror named Frle-deer, who,
in company with other chieftains, makes
many conquests. This old book proves
most conclusively how Jove, religion and
warfare went hand In hand in the lives
of the ancient Mexicans, Just as In peo
ple's lives today.

PIONEER CITIZEN AND
SALEM. Sept 15. (SpecIaL) Dr.
C. H. Hall, who died in this city
Saturday, was born in Lexington.
Ky., In 1833, and was educated at
Ashbury University, Indiana, where
he.recelved the A. M. degree) in 1854.
He went to Louisville, Ky., and be
gan the study of medicine, but in tn
following year his plans were
chax&ed and he Joined Captain Will
iam Craig's engineer 'corps and as
sisted in a preliminary survey for s
railroad to the Pacific Coast He
came' to Oregon in 1856 and occupied
the professorship of natural Bclence
in Willamette University, of this
city. Ho retained the chair for
three years and afterwards taught
In the Lebanon and Portland acad
emies. Alter graduating from the
medical department of Willamette
University in 1SC8, he Immediately
began the practice of medicine and
continued in active practice until a
few months ago, when 111 health
obliged him to retire.
In 1871 he accepted a professorship
in the medical department of Wil
lamette University on pathology and
-general practice, and also became
editor-in-chief of the Oregon Medical and Surgical Journal, with which h was con-
-nected until 1877. when the medical college was moved to Portland. In 1887 he
accopted a chair in the medical department in Portland, as professor-of theory and
practice of medicine and general pathology, devoting two days of each week to
college work, the remainder of the time to his practice at Salem.
Dr. Hall was married at Salem In 1S56 to Miss Mary Waller, daughter of Rev.
Alvin Waller, who came to this state as a missionary in 1840. Besides his wife,
he Is survived by a daughter, Mrs. John H. McNary. of this city, and two grand
children Gertrudo and Margaret children of his daughter, Mrs. George B. Gray,
now- deceased. '
up with weak pitchers, and the fans think
that Portland has a cinch on the series,
and a few go so far as to predict that
the Webfeet will win five straight This
Is unlikely, as no team, however strong
over another, stands a chance of winning
on five consecutive days. Three games
would please the Portland bunch very
well, and four would tickle them to
death. Each team will play 21 more
games this season. If Portland Is to win
the pennant It will have to win every
one of the 21 and obtain an average of
553.' Butte will have to lose 12 and'-win-nine,
and obtain a percentage of 575.
Seattle will have to lose seven and get an
average of 579, and Helena will have to
lose five and get an average of 579. If
all the teams will do this Portland can
win with Its 5S3 percentage. If Seattle
will lose half of her coming 21 games,
and Portland will win three-fourths of
hers, the Webfeet will beat the Clam
dlggers out It is better to let Improb
abilities rest peacefully In their graves,
however, than to dig them up at this
time.
Manager Sammy "Vlgneux, of the Port
land team, has Indefinitely suspended
Harris from the list of the local players.
His action In this matter has been forced
by Harris' frequent dlsobeyance of the
club rules and regulations.
Kostal, who pitched for four innings
Sunday, was in no shape to pitch at all,
nnd should not have had to go in the
game. His right hand Is swollen to twice
Its natural thlckness,and he can hardly
hold a ball In It, let alone try to curve
Stovall, the brother of Seattle's crack
twlrler, who has been playing with Pen
dleton during the season, has been signed
by Manager Vlgneux to play on first
during Zefgler's absence from the game.
Stovall Is a hard hitter. In fact the
hardest of the Inland Empire League,
and will, prove a valuable addition to
the Portland team. Weed, who has suf
ficiently recovered to go In the game
Wednesday, will be transferred to third,
and Stovall will hold down the Initial
sick. Great tales of Stovall's hitting
have ccme down from east of the moun
tains, and he will be expected to do some
things when he gets here. ' Fay, who
played third for the locals, won the ad
miration of all who saw him during the
game. He has a cool head, and is cut
out for a ball player. Van Buren has
been suffering for the past few days
with a severe cold that threatens to lay
him out of the game If its present sever
ity keeps up much longer. The tall fielder
would be hard to replace, even for a few
days. If he were to go out of the play.
Vlgneux has a very bad hand, swollen
with blood poisoning, and a very lame
hip. the result of his little encounter with
Drennan on Friday last Sammy was
holding down the home plate, and the
Seattle man came along on the hike, and
bumped Into him with such force that
he went sprawling. He has a slight
limp still,- but will be In the game as
usual on Wednesday.
The single-handed trlplc-play people are
hard to down, for they butt In from every
side. Here Is a short account from the
Sporting Lifer
"Lebanon. Pn., Sept 10 Frank Eustace,
third baseman of the Pottsville Club,
made a triple play unassisted In the game
with Lebanon AH-Collcglate here on Sep
tember S. With Black on third and Hoyt
on second. In the third inning. Locrcher
met the ball squarely and It shot at
Eustace with terrific force. The ball
struck Eustace's glove. As It was falling,
ho caught It, touched Hoyt, who was on
his way to third, and then he stepped on
the bag, retiring Black. The game re
sulted 6 to 2 fn -favor of Potsvllle."
Hogg snapped his arm square In two
Just above the elbow Joint Sunday, and it
will be many months before1 he can throw
a ball again. Some go so far ns to say
that he never will be able to pitch again,
but he Is young, and the break Is In the
best possible place for a quick and good
knit again. The cradk, when It broke,
could be heard In the grandstand.
Adams, who played first for a few min
utes on Sunday, Is not the Adams that
pitched in the Northwest League last
year. He Is a different man .entirely, and
comes from the Inland Empire League.
His finger nail was taken completely off,
but he wlll .be In the game soon again
when needed.
Manager Foster, of the Multnomah
Club team. Is trying to arrange a series
of games with the Everett team next
week. A number of the club's players
have gone off to college, and football Is
endearing Itself to- the others, and the
chance for the" trip Is small. It may
be pulled off, however, and Foster will
take his men over on the Sound to win.
Spokane seems to have a cinch on the
ceHar championship now, and will prob
ably win out
WHY THE GAME WAS CALLED OFF.
Diamond W. Manager Says He Re
sented Dictation of Other Team.
HILLSBORO. Or., Sept 15. (To the Ed
itorsReferring to an article In this
morning's Oregonlan from Forest Grove,
wherein the "coarse work of the Diamond
W. baseball nine" is mentioned, I wish to
stato that, as manager of the Diamond W.
team, IN arranged a series of four games
with the Cornelius-Forest Grove team,
two to be played at Hlllsboro and two
at Forest Grove. I did not ask to select tho
men who were to play on the Cornelius
Forest Grove team, but selected my nine.
Late In the evening before the day the
first game was to have been played, the
manager of the Cornelius-Forest Grove
nine virtually refused to play unless I al
lowed him the prerogative of selecting my
men for me. Of course, this ended the
dealings between the two teams. The
Diamond W. nine Is ready to meet any
team outside the Northwest League, and
will play on the diamond, not In the paper.
PHYSICIAN OF SALEM.
Dr. C H. Hall.
If President W. H. Lucas will permit me
to select his players and allow me to sign
my own team, I will beat any team In
the Northwest League. The Cornelius
Forest Grove team reminds me of a Wap
pato citizen who remarked: "Let me pick
my opponent and I am the heavy-weight
championship fighter in America."

unmercifully, reducing him to a plight
where, if the pace continued, the knock
out seemed only a question of moments.

on. Ryan "was the favorite at 2 to 1 to 10

MUST NOT FIGHT FOR PRIZE.
Kentucky Judge's Ruling as to Mc-
GoveriP-Corbett Contest.
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept 15. In his
charge to the grand jury today, Judge
Baker, of the criminal division of the
Jefferson Circuit Court, referred to the
McGovern-Corbett contest scheduled to
take place In this city September 22.
After quoting the Kentucky law In the
case and defining a prizefight as any
flght for a prize, whether a title, bet,
wager or stake, he stated that the statute
does not prohibit "sparring exhibitions."
unless the winner takes something he
would not have secured had' he lost
Continuing, the Judge declared:
"I have nothing to do with the policy
of this law. We have nothing to do with
the question as to whether prizefights
ought or ought not to be given. We have
to do simply with the enforcement of this
law, just as we find It on the statute
book.
"As to this particular prizefight, or
fight, whatever it is called, I understand
that the police authorities have it in
their charge, and that the Mayor has
said there should be no violation of law.
I want to say to you that I have every
confldence In what the Mayor says, and
I believe he, having given that word, will
see to it that there will be no violation
of the law, but If that Is not so (and I
have no question of Its truth), then It
will be your duty, should you conclude to
take It up, or the duty of the next grand
jury, to take the matter In hand."
Attorney-General Pratt arrived here to
night from Frankfort and will tomorrow
file an Injunction suit. In connection with
Governor Beckham's instructions, to de
termine the status of the contest
