KEW TRUSTEES FOR PACIFIC
Increase of Four Mado to the Uni
versity Board.
PACIFIC UNIVERSITY. Forest Grove
Or.. Aug. 8. (Special.) Five new
rmmoR havfl been added to the Boara
of Trustees of Pacific University. They
are:
Judge C. E. Wolverton, of the Oregon
Supreme Court; Hon. Beia is. numing
ton nf Th Dalles: Principal J. R. "Wil
son, of Portland Academy; Rev. "W. C
Kantner, of the First Congregational
rVinr-v Sniim. and Senator x.
Haines, of Forest Grove.
ThfiSA new members Indicate an ac
tual increase of lour In the numbnr of
trustees, raising It to 18. Senator
Haines fills the vacancy caused by the
death of Hon. Benton Klllin. The elec
tion took place at the' regular July
meeting of the board, but the- names
were not made public until today, when
it was announced that all had accepted.
The board now lacks only one name of
the full quota permitted by the charter
of the institution.
All the new trustees are well known
to the people of Oregon, and have beon
nrominent in public life for many years
President Ferrln and other members of
the faculty are especially gratified
because several of the men chosen come
from sections of the state that have
not been represented heretofore.
"With the addition of these men to
the Board of Trustees, are other fav
orable circumstances which promise a
wider .field of usefulness for the uni
versity in the future. The recent gift
of 510,000 from the daughters of the
late Henry Failing, raises the actual
invested funds of Pacific to 3220,000.
This is the largest endowment pos
sessed by any educational institution in
the state, aside from those which are
supported fay public funds. It Is ade
quate to meet the expenses of the col
lege as they have been in the past, but
the' faculty and trustees are hoping for
a still greater increase to provide for
the larger work before them. Efforts
are now being directed towards secur
ing the $20,000 bonus, necessary to ob
tain the $20,000 offered by Andrew Car
negie for library purposes. Besides the
new members the following men are
now on the Board of Trustees:
Harvey W. Scott, president; Rev. El

SALMON ARE OF GOOD SIZE
Some Heavy Catches Are Reported
at Astoria.
ASTORIA, Or., Aug. 8. (Special.)
Although not yet reaching the propor
tions of what is termed a "big run'
the increased amount of fish in the
lower harbor continued today and some
good catches are reported. Several of
the gillnetters delivered a ton to the
boat today, and the seines on Sand
Island made fair hauls.
The Tallant-Qrant grounds, which
secured 12 tons in two hauls yesterday,
caught eight tons today. In fact, near
ly all the gear in that section of the
river report good catches. On the oth
er hand, the gillnetters drifting along
the middle river did not average over
100 pounds last night, and the seines
above Tongue Point did little better.
Those who watch the "signs" claim the
present spurt is the advance guard of
the long-expected run, and predict big
catches tonight and, tomorrow. The
fish Are of good size and the quality is
fairly good, although a few whitcfish
are making their appearance.
RIGHT OF GUARDS TO REGISTER
Washington Attorney-General Gives
Opinion in Reply to Request.
OLYMPIA, "Wash., Aug. S. Special.)
The Attorney-General has written an
opinion in response to a request from the
penitentiary guards involved in the recent
election trouble, in which he assures them
that there is nothing to prevent them
from selecting their residence in any pre
cinct or ward in "Walla Walla, regardless
of the fact that they are employes of the
penitentiary.
Attorney-General Atkinson says that
the letter from the guard wax delivered
to him August 2. lust as he was about to
leave the city for several days. He left It
on his desk without saying anything to
his assistants, and when inquiry was
made by the Governor, Assistant Attorney-General
Fallen or replied that he
did not know of any request having Wen
filed. Mr. Atkinson returned to the city
Sunday night and prepared the opinion
today.
Governor Mead, when shown a copy of
the Attorney-General's opinion concerning
the right of penitentiary guards to regis
ter ana vote In walla walla, declared
that the opinion coincided fully with his
own -views as to the interpretation of the
jaw.
"My decision was based wholly on the
tacts as presented to me." said the Gov
ernor, "and the facts convinced me that
the men had not in good faith established
a residence in Walla Walla when they
registered. Had I received the Attorney
General's opinion earlier it would not
have altered my decision. So far as I am
concerned, the incident Is closed."

DAMS STOP THE SALMON
WARDEN" REPORTS TO THE
OREGON" cosonssiox.
Much Unlawful Fishing Is Carried
on in the Vicinity of River
Obstructions.
SALEM, Or., Aug. 8. (Special.) Ob
struction of rivers with dams so that fish
cannot reach their natural spawning
grounds, continues to be a subject de
manding a large part of the attention of
the State Fish Commission. The new dam
of the Oregon Water Power & Railway
Company on the Clackamas has stopped
fish on that stream, the fish are not yet
able to pass freely over the Portland
General Electric Company's dam across
the Willamette at Oregon City, and con
tinual complaints come from Rogue River.
where the most serious obstructions are
found.
The trouble on Rogue River 'is that fish
not only find difficulty In getting over the
dam, but unscrupulous persons catch the
fish while they are temporarily stopped
and are hunting for a passage through the
fish way.
At the meeting of the commission today.
Fish Warden VanDusen reported that the
Golden Drift Mining Company has re
moved defects in the flshway so that fish
can cet over.
Mr. VanDusen finds that the DeoDlo in
the vicinity of the dams are so little in
sympathy with enforcement of the law
that they will not aid in the discovery of
violations and it is difficult to secure con
victions. In one recent case six nets used
in Illegal fishing near the Golden Drift
Company's dam were solzed and stored
for safe keeping In the office of Justice of
the Peace Furman, at Grant's Pass.
Someone broke In and stole the nets.
The members of the Fish Commission
expressed their determination to see that
all proprietors -of dams observe the pro
visions of the law requiring the construc
tion of fishways and that fishlnir within
600 feet of a fishway be prevented.
The disastrous results of the conditions
on the Rogue River are shown by the
fact that few fish are taken above the
dam, while on the TJrnpqua. whore there
are no obstructions, fish are plentiful at
too natcnery.
The Government hatchery superintend
ent on the Clackamas has informed Mr.
VanDusen that only 100 salmon were
taken there this year for hatching pur
poses, whereas there should have bn
000 taken.

EMPLOYED TO LIE
Confession Made in Pine-Land
Case in California.
GO-BETWEEN ON THE STAND
H. L. Coombs Turns Stato's Evidence
Against G. W. Bruce, on
Trial for Perjury
at Eureka.
EUREKA, CaL, Aug. 8. The promised
sensation in the George W. Brace per
jury case was early forthcoming this
morning when the examination of Brace
was In progress only a few minutes.
Hugh L. Coombs, who was arrested
recently with Brace in connection with
the alleged fraudulent location of pine
lands in Trinity County several years
ago. took the stand and turned state's
evidence against the man who, he says,
employed him to testify falsely on many
locations and also persuaded others to
adopt the same course for the remunera
tion of ?50.
No less damaging testimony was given
by Ola Mulford, one of the many, it is
alleged, who were located on lands
through the instrumentality of Brace
and his go-between, a position held by
Coombs, according to his own testimony.
The action of Coombs as well as the tes
timony of Mulford came as a surprise
to everybody in the courtroom of United
States Commissioner Ford.

under agreement to sell to Cobban. He
admitted there was an agreement that
Grlswold would receive 5 cents per 10M
feet on timber secured by him.
Cobban said he knew the locators would
not be able to handle the timber and
would have to sell to some rich, corpora

about the purposo of their trip to For

combining business with pleasure, and
that their presence here had a bearlnc
upon the electric railway situation.
It Is inferred from their visit that
the Portland Consolidated is turning Its

with the intention of Interesting Itsolf

BOISE, Idaho. Aug. 8. (Special.) What
annears to be a phenomenally rich gold
district has been discovered 12 miles north
east of Idaho City, on what Is called the
Hay Fork of More Creek. The find was
made last Fall and the" rock was so rich
that the prospectors making the find were
afraid to let It be known, as they wished
to get their claims securely located. Defi
nite news of the find has just been se
cured. There were three ledges, several hun
dred feet apart, the ore In all of them
running high. C E. Jones, editor of the
Idaho City World, who has "been a real-
dent of that section since the gold placer
days of the basin, states it Is undoubtedly
the greatest strike ever made In that
part of the state. Chunks of ore taken
from the ledges are so rich, he says, that
they would be called nuggets, were they
found in placer ground. Assays of several
thousand dollars a ton are common.
