Choice for a few days..25' HE GOES TO BOISE Dr. Watson Will Head School for Defectives. RECOGNITION OF WORTH Ousted by CJovernor. MfHd From Van - rouvrr Institution, Idaho Offers' Him riacc at Institute It Will CrcHte. Tr. F. Watson, who was the head of the Washington school fr defective youth, at Vancouver. Wash., for more than 18 years and Is well known in Portland, has been appointed to take charge of a similar in stitution In Idaiio that will begin Its work tn September. Dr. Watson, who is stay ing in Portland for a few days, will leave later in the Summer for Boise, where Idaho's Institution will be located. Probably few men can bfs found in the country who will so admirably head a deaf, dumb and blind school as Dr. Wat son." His long experience and acknowl fdced leadership In the work are well known and while he directed the Wash in acbool hl method .wera. so euc- cussful and he so completely won the confidence and love of his unfortunate wards that children were sent to the Vancouver Institution from many of the Western states. Mrs. Watson Appreciated. Mrs. Watson, who had charge of the girls In the school, was a no less efficient director of the difficult work of teaching and caring for children singularly unable to care for themselves. The State of Idaho has secured the Central School building In Boise, which adjoins the capltol buildings, and until a permanent home for the deaf, dumb and blind children can be built Dr. Wat son will have charge of this building, which is capable of housing 4X day school children. Idaho school for de fective youth will open with more than W pupils. - Dr. Watson was ousted from the Van couver school last January by Governor Mead and his Board of Control. It was believed and openly charged at the time that the move was a political one, dis guised by the contention that Dr. Watson was too old for longer" effective service as a teacher. That this claim was wholly groundless Is shown by the model Institution he built up at Vancouver and maintained by his own active management. The Idaho au thorities, who sent the state wards to the Vancouver school, are so thoroughly well satisfied with their excellent care that they immediately began negotiations with Dr. Watson m soon as he severed his connection with the Washington Institu tion. Those familiar with Dr. Watson's work at Vancouver will be pleased to see him again enter a work for which he has euch a peculiar aptitude. Electrical Company Incorporates. John C. Baird. Frank K.

The robbery was committed between the hours of 7:45 and 9:30 P. M. while the residence was In darkness. By obtaining a stepladder la the back yard the burg lars placed it near the rear pantry win dow and gained entrance by prying It up. Valuable silverware was not stolen, al though It was pulled from the sideboard.

COOS' BAY PLEASED Portland's Efforts in Its Behalf Appreciated. IRA S. SMITH'S MESSAGE Will Tell His Home District That Merchants Deal Fairly Here, and Will Aid to Get Harbor Appropriation. Portland will receive a most flattering report when Ira S. Smith, representing the Marshfleld Chamber of Commerce, who has been In the city for the last few days, returns to Coos Bay. He is satisfied that there has been no move ment on the part of the wholesalers of Portland to bleed the merchants of his locality, now that they are virtually obliged to do most of their purchasing here, and that the business men of this city will exert their utmost influence in obtaining a Congressional appropriation for the improvement of Coos Bay. Mr. Smith is very optimistic relative to the future commercial relations be tween Coos Bay and this city, and. lias only words of praise for the business men of Portland. He says that he will do all he possibly can to convince his fellow-citizens that Portland possesses only the kindliest feeling for that section of If - J: ';. . '; V - ' Tx it . . i ii- . - . 4 -Sfr ; , S. Smith. Merchant of Marshfleld. the state, and he believed that In all matters Coos Bay will receive Its hearti est co-operatlon only for the asking. The business men of Portland are of the opin ion that much good will result from the vteit of Mr. Smith, and tbat it -will brlos about a better understanding between all concerned. "Before I came to Portland I, in com mon with many other of the people of Coos Bay. thought there was a disposition on the part of the Portland wholesalers to raise their prices because we now have to do most of our buying here." said Mr. Smith last night. "But I find that I was mistaken, and when I return to Marshfleld I will do what I can to allay this suspicion. "I found that there has been an ad vance of prices on some articles, but that !s not confined to Portland, and that it Is general. So far as I have been able to learn and I have made a very careful and painstaking investigation of the sit uation Portland has not tried to take any undue advantage of Coos Bay, as &ome of us were Inclined to believe. "In company with Tom Richardson, of the Commercial Club. I visited many of the most representative business men of Portland. Everywhere I received the most courteous treatment, and was assured by all that Portland was willing o assist the people of our part of the state in various matters of vital import to us. I am greatly encouraged, and I believe that the people of Marshfleld will feel the same as I do. "We have our hearts set on securing an appropriation for the improvement of our harbor. We realize that to obtain this appropriation we must have the support of Portland. Residents along the bay feel that Portland has not worked hard for the appropriation. But the business men with whom I talked Informed me that they would support the appropria tion, and I was told that the commercial organizations would do whatever they could. In short, I have been promised the Bupport of Portland. "We believe that Jl.000.000 to Jl.500.000 would be sufficient to improve our har bor. Tf we can get the harbor deepened we will set the railroads, and Coos Hit will be assured of a glorious future Outf great hope is that some day If the har bor is improved Coos Bay will be made the terminus of the Chicago North western. Our commerce Is increasing at a very satisfactory rate. The tonnage passing over the Coos Bay bar for the first seven months of 1W)T was between 201 and 300 per cent greater than that of Frank L.Smith Meat Co. 2ZS AI.DRR STREET, Between Flint and Seroml. t 6S1 SOITH F1HST STREET, Siear the Brldar.
