SALEM, Or., June 3. (Special.)
Frlcea of text books, unlike price of
all other necessaries of life, Bhow no
advance today over six years ago.
While the bids submitted this after
. noon to the 8tate Text Book Commis
sion have not been made public, repre
i sentatlves of text book publishing
' houses say that tha figures will not
be above those named In contracts
! made in 1901, though cost of paper,
; waires and freight have very materially
Increased. No reduction in prices can
be expected either, though there is
some likelihood that changes will be
' made resulting in some reduction in
the rota! cost of books to the patrons
. of public schools. It is understood
that publishers of nearly all books now
; In use have offered to renew their
; contracts at old prices.
While members of the commission
are maintaining absolute secrecy as to
I their Intentions, there is a very well
; established opinion among text book
' men who have been talked with at
various times In the past two months,
that a few changes are practically
certain. Abandonment of the vertical
system of writing, adopted six years
ago, Is probable, with the adoption of
th- medial system, about half way be-
. tween the vertical and the old slant
style of writing.
1 Few Changes to Be Made.
If this change should be made, it
would not mean that a child who has
studied vertical writing for several
years would abandon it and take up
the medial. Those who have acquired
proficiency In one style would continue
It, but the beginners would take up the
new system.
Opinion among textbook men also
indicates a probable change in gram
mars and. perhaps in the advanced his
tory, the history now in use being
coneidered too heavy for eighth-grade
pupils. Objections to the grammar now
in use come from many teachers, but
this may not result in a change, for
a g:ammar Is a beok with which teach-
. ers have never been satisfied, whatever
the book. There will be some change
in geographies, though not necessarily
In authors, for the books now In use
have been revised to correspond with
the course of study, and the new books
are quoted at 35 ceDts less than the
old ones.
Drawing-books may also he changed,
nut this will make no difference in
cost, as drawing-books can be used
but once. These are the only changes
generally expected among textbook
men.
The textbook commission met at 1
o'clock this afternoon and organized by
electing H. W. Scott, chairman, and P.
, K. Lovell, secretary. Thirty-one sealed
bids were received from textbook com
panies, and as each bid contains quota
tions on a number of books and three
prices on each book the exchange price,
the introductory price and the retail
price. It was Impossible to make a com
parison of prices until they have been
tabulated.
Go Into Executive Session.
The clmmission set a force of stenog
raphers at work on this task, and then
went into executive session In a commit
tee room, back of the Senate chamber,
to discuss the books. This procedure
was absolutely necessary, for there were
about 30 wide-awake, energetic textbook
" men present who could scarcely be sup
pressed If the members of the commls-
( sipn undertook to discuss books In their
presence. The commissioners will make
tip their minds what books they desire
to select and will then hold a formal,
'. open session, take a ballot and thus
i make the selection.
Textbook men have compiled figures
; shewing that Oregon is now getting
- textbooks cheaper than any other
Western State. It is also shown by
figures compiled by Superintendent of
Public Instruction J. H. Ackerman
that the total cost of all the books
! in the common school course Is $9.80,
' or $1.2! per pupil per year if pupils
! never used the bonks of their older
: brothers and sisters. The actual cost
is probably less than $1 per pupil per
year. It Is quite likely that civil gov
ernment will be discontinued as a sep
arate subject, and this book dropped
from the list, thus reducing the total
cost 80 cents.
The State Board of Education today
. sent to the Textbook Commission a
, communication advising that no sup
: plementary reading-books be adopted,
la the new public library law provides
' for the supplemental reading in a
large degree.

SALEM. Or., June a. (Special.) The

egon was closed here today when Lach
mund & Plncus contracted E.OOO bushels

' figures are net. the buyers furnishing the
sacks. The contract calls for September
and October delivery. This is the first
potato contract reported in this vicinity
this year.
KICKED TO DEATH BY HORSE
Farmer's Wife Goea to Call Husband,
Only to Find Him Dead.
PENDLETON, Or.. June 3. (Spe
cial.) Alexander Malcolm, foreman on
the Barrett ranch, near Athena, was
instantly killed Sunday morning by
being kicked by a horse. The animal's
foot struck him under the point of the
chin, breaking his neck. Malcolm had
gone to the barn to feed his horses
before breakfast, and when he failed
to respond to her calls, his wife went
to the stable and found his body lying
behind the horse.
CITY TO MAKE OWN' ASPHALT
Members of Tacoma Council Anxious
to Try the Experiment.
TACOMA, Wash.. June 3. (Special.)
The city may undertake to do its own
asphalting Instead of having it done by
contractors. The matter is being talked
of among Councllmen and city officials.
r
Colonel 8. W. Roeseler, Appointed
Chief Engineer, Department of the
Columbia.
The reason given for such an enterprise
la that contractors this year are bidding
nearly 60 per cent above their bids of a
year aKO. Councilmen argue there is no
good reason for such a large increase.
They admit that labor is higher, perhaps
20 per cent higher. Asphalt, it is said,
is from 10 to lo per cent higher. There is
no change in the price of anj-thlng else
and hence there can be no excuse for
such high bids.

OUST EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES
Tacoma Councilman Plans to Place
License at $1000 a Year.
TACOMA, Wash., June 3. (Special.)
Councilman Doten will introduce an ordi
nance Wednesday night making the
license fee for employment bureaus $1000 a
year. The present license is $25. It is
admitted that a $1000 fee will drive them
out of business and In fact that is what
Mr. Doten is hoping to do. He eays:
"I know this sort of men like a book.
They make deals with some scoundrelly
foreman of a big concern who will take
all the men they send him, keep them
a day or two and Are them just to make
room for some more. They divide the
fee with the foreman."
Oswego Will Not Incorporate.
OREGON CITT, Or., June . (Special.)
The people of Oswego who have been
anxious to have the town Incorporated,
have become dissatisfied with the boun
daries as established by the County
Court and have filed a motion to be al
lowed to withdraw their petition. This
action will end the fight for incorpora
tion that was started two months ago.
The Oregon Iron & Steel Company came
into court and protested against the in
corporation of the town, and the court
finally ordered a vote on the question,
but cut down the boundaries, taking out
a portion of the land of the company. It
is everything or nothing, however, with
the people, and there will be no effort
made at this time to incorporate:

Last year he made the team and was
considered one of the best men.

ILL FBOMOVEHWORK
NERVOUS PROSTRATION CURED
BY DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS.
By Toning up the Blood and Nerves Pa
tient Recovered Weight, Strength
and Good Spirits.
When the nervous system is broken
down from overwork jOr whatever cause,
life loses iMjoys. !Not only is the ner
vous victim a sufferer himself but he is
usually a trial to the whole family.
Nervous breakdown is often gradual,
appearing at first to be merely an unu
sual fretfulness. Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills tone up the nerves in tie most
direct-way and not only cure minor
troubles but serious disorders as well.
Mr. W. W. Monroe, of 16 Hazel Park,
Everett, Mass., says: "About four years
ago this September I became all run
down from overwork and from confine
ment to work during warm weather.
For two months 1 grew steadily worse.
I lost in weight and strength and bad no
appetite. My memory failed me quite
rapidly and I became in a very low
state, both physically and mentally. I
took no interest in life, neither in busi
ness nor recreation. In my position, as
foreman in a large manufacturing
chemist's establishment in Boston, a
good memory is absolutely essential to
6uocess because of the immense amount
of detail that must be carried in the head.
"I grew very despairing, could not
bear to have people meet me and my
friends remarked on my condition.
About the middle of December a friend
told me one day that he had tried Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills and found them
reliable. I commenced taking them and
at the end of two weeks the change for
the better was remarked by friends. I
continued using the pills until I was
thoroughly recovered. I regard them as
a fine remedy and make this statement
voluntarily in gratitude for the benefit
I received from them."
These pills actually make new blood
and have cured such diseases as rheu
matism, nervous and general debilitv,
indigestion, nervous headache, neuralgia
and even partial paralysis and locomotor
ataxia. As a tonic for the blood and
nerves they are unequalled.
If you are a sufferer from any disor
der of the blood and nerves write for
proof of what Dr. Williams' Pink
Fills have accomplished in cases similar
to yours. Every testimonial used by
this company is carefully investigated
before being published and is authentic
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or direct by mail, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six
boxes for (2.50, by the Dr. Williams

admitted to citizenship. These were
Thomas W. Mangum. of Camas, Wash.,
and Frederick Stoller, of Trout TJake.
Wash. The former was a native of
Canada but had resided for almost 30'
years in this country; while the lat
ter was a citizen of the Republic of
Switzerland and had also been a resi
dent nere for a considerable time.
Both were granted their final papers.
TOO, HOT FOR STRAWBERRIES
Vines Drying fp About Puget Sound.
Price, However, Drops $1.
TACOMA, Wash., June 8. (Special.)
Discouraging reports on the strawberry
crop were received on the street this
morning from Fox Island and Hales
Passage. It is so dry and hot that the
berries are burning up on the vines, and
unless a refreshing Tain is bad, it is
stated, within a day or two, the upper
Sound ranchers will have no strawberries
left to ship to Tacoma next week. But
notwithstanding the bullish reports, the
market took a drop of $1 a ccate.
Why the Bay Island producers' union
cut the price In view of the fact that this
will be the last week practically of straw
berries, is more than the commission can
understand.
Goes Insane When Drunk.
JOREGON CITT, Or., June 3. (Special.)
Andrew Oresshaber was this afternoon
committed to the State Insane Asylum.
Gresshaber Is a New Bra farmer and is
not crazy at aril, except when he is
drunk, which is a major portion of the
time. When in an intoxicated condition
he imagines things and quarrels and
fights with his family. It is likely that
he will be discharged from the asylum,
where he 'cannot secure liquor, and his
condition is a good argument for a home
for inebriates.
Artesian Flow Is Dimmed.
LA GRANDE. Or., June S. Miller &
West, the well-diggers, who found the
artesian well in the railroad yards of this
city and later left for Riparia, returned
today to dig further In an effort to bring
the volume of flow back to the original
amount. During the last two weeks the
flow has decreased 60 per cent, no doubt
due to clogging. The diggers feel certain
that less than a week's drilling will
remedy all the troubles and give a flow
of 250 gallons per minute again.
Prunes Go Up Quarter Cent.
SALEM, Or., June 3. (Special.) The
prune market advanced another quarter
of a cent today, and contracts were made
in the RosedaJe district on a straight 6
cent basis, or 6 1-4 cents for prunes going
35 to the pound. This price is net and is
a. trifle better than that secured for
the Willamette Valley Prune Association
pool sold some time ago. which price.
6-2 cents net to the grower, 'was then
considered far above the market.
Salllng-Shlp Owners to Meet.
The date of the next meeting of the

Successful Fourth Assured.
CttEOON CITT, Or.. June 3. (Special.)

A Woman Tell How to Believe
Rheumatic Pains.
"I have been a very great sufferer from
the dreaded disease rheumatism, for a
number of years. I have tried many
medicines but never got much relief from
any of them until two years ago, when I
bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. I found relief before I had used
all of one bottle, but kept on applying it
and soon felt like a different woman.
Through my advice many of my friends
have tried it and can tell yen how won

CAUSE OF BOY'S DEATH.

MERRILL, Or., June 3. (Special.)
The people of thle city are Intensely
worked up over the death of Rowland
Barrows, aged 7 years and 6 months.
The deceased was treated entirely by
Christian Science practitioners and
died after about a week of serious ill
ness. The eexton of the cemetery, A.
Bchortgen, refused to permit inter
ment without a death certificate,' so
the child was , burled on the Barrows
property. A complaint -was at once
made to the Coroner. Dri William
Martin, who arrived .Thursday morning
from Klamath Falls and called a jury
of Investigation. Several witnesses
were examined and testified for the
Christian Scientists, that they had
done all in their power for -the child,
reading to him assiduously from Mrs.
Eddy's book, "Science and Health and
Key to the Scriptures," and praying; to
God. The little fellow repeated, "God

the pain, which they testified did not
exist. Witnesses for the Scientists testi
fied variously as to the cause of death.
It might have been croup, possibly
pneumonia and probably heart failure.
Owing to this doubt as to cause of
death and fearing diphtheria or mem
braneous croup, the jury demanded
disinterment. This was done Friday
morning in the presence of Coroner
Martin and Drs. Cartwright and Mer
ryman, of Klamath Falls, and Dr. Pat
terson, of Lakevlew, as autopsy sur
sreons. The result of the post mortem ex
amination was presented to the jury
as revealing the cause of death to be
bronchial , or catarrhal pneumonia, su
perinduced by a previous attack of
measles. The autopsy surgeons did
not think the disease contagious, but
said It was infectious. They were not
positive, but thought the child could
have lived under proper treatment.
The complaint is a very common com
plication arising' from measles, and
the greater percentage recover.
The Jury retired and returned a ver
dict that "Rowland Barrows died of
cardiacal paralysis of the heart, super
Induced by bronchial pneumonia."
The people of this community are
highly wrought up over the affair, and
trouble may arise.
