Dr. Le wis. advisor to Gifford Pinchot, Chief of the Forest y Service, and though not famous, he should be noted for having expounded the doctrine that any Gov ernment official is empowered to "do anything which he is not specifically forbidden to do by the Federal statutes. It was on such advice from Woodruff that the Fewest Service reached out and undertook to do by regulation wliat any other department would not have dared do without sanction of law. When President Roosevelt made Mr. Garfield Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Pinchot secured the appointment of Woodruff as Assistant Attorney-General for the Interior Department this officer being the chief legal advisor of the Secretary of the Interior. In that office Mr. Woodruff remained only as long as Secretary Garfield, and then he resigned. It was a wise and timely resignation, however, for it is well known in official circles in Washington that on Questions of law, and partic ularly public land law, there is a vast difference between the Interpretation , of the statutes by George W. Woodruff l and the interpretation by R- A. Ball inger. Naturally a man as well versed in land law as Secretary Ballinger, would not desire as legal advisor a man whose ideas were at such strik ing variance with his own. The judiciary committee, that has charge of Woodruff's nomination, nas gone carefully into the record of Mr. Woodruff, and in addition to the fore going -facts, has found that Mr. Wood ruff, since his admission to the bar. has had no court practice. Members of that committee, all of them experienced law yers, hold the antiquated notion that no lawyer is competent to sit upon the Uench unless he has had considerable experience in court. In view of these facts their verdict is apparently in ac cordance with the evidence, and soon President Taft will be confronted with the facts, in the expectation that he will name another man. The understanding is that Woodruff's appointment was merely a fulfillment of a promise made by President Roose velt to Messrs. Garfield and Pinchot. It is also reported that the people of Hawaii are anything but pleased with the appointment of Woodruff, and their protest is likely to be presented along with the finding of the judiciary committee.

Woodruff, nominated some weeks hko as Federal JihIkc for Ha waii. In conseiiuence of this verdict, the committee has declined to report the nomination of Mr. Woodruff, and It remains nipreon-l'.oled in the com mittee room. I nless there is a challpe of sentiment hiiuuik members of the committee, the nomination is not likely to be reported, and therefore Wood ruff Is not likely to be confirmed. . Mr. Woodruff is little known as a lawyer; he has a wide reputation ns a football coach. A graduate of the 1'niversity of Pennsylvania, Mr. Wood ruff is written down one of the star players of the Institution, and as coach of the Pennsylvania football team in later years, he is even more famous. He producer a crack team, and more over, he originated some of the most effective of modern plays known to tiie football world. But It is solely on bis football record that Mr. Woodruff':! fame depends. As a lawyer he is practically un known outside of Washington city. For a number of years he was chief lerjal Boise Chinamen Rally to Side Asiatic Woman, Who Leaves Doc tor Husband for Highbinder.' Activities of the Highbinders who are creating: consternation in the Chinese quarters of Boise have evidently ex tended to this city, and now the lives of several prominent Celestials here are thieatened. Among local Chinese whom anonymous letters seem to place in jeopardy is Wong- Non Gar, grand master to tjte Saey Ga Choon Yee Tong Mission Society. He has already re ceived four warning letters, one of which contained a 44-caliber bullet. The Federal authorities, as well as the police of Boise and Portland, have been asked to ferret out the myste rious senders of the epistles. The present state of affairs is said to be the result of an internal im broglio that has been brewing among the Chinese of Boise fur the last sev eral weeks. The difficulty is believed to have had its origin when the young wife of Dr. Ah Kong-, a prominent Americanized practicing physician of that city, separated from her husband and was accused of taking up her abode with Lon Wee Doo, a well-known emis sary of the mysterious society. ' The highest Celestials in Boise's China town endeavored to effect a reconcil iation between the alleged wayward voting wife and her husband, more .than 30 years her senior. When a fac tional strife, as a result of the physi cian's difficulties, threatened to divide the Boise Chinese the police of that city were enlisted to quell the Incipient uprising, but all efforts on the part of the authorities to influence Mrs. Ah Four to return to her husband proved futile. In his capacity as missionary of the Saey Ga Choon Yee Tong Mission So ciety Wong Non Gar, of this city, then took the matter up and visited Boise with a view of pacifying the hostile sides. Despite his efforts the hostil ities increased, and fir.ally the life of It. Ah Kong was threatened. Now Highbinders have rallied to assist their i constituents and all the Asiatics who hoped to bring abut an amicable set tlement of the affaire of Dr. Ah Fong and wife have been threatened in anonymous letters. The subject has been placed before Moy Back Hin. Chinese Consul here, who Is exerting an effort to avert bloodshed. Ohio Church Dynamited. LEETOXIA; O., June 12.

Or.. June 12. (Special,)' Owing to the faot that the si-hool year is so nearly over, the installation of the local chapter of the At acta fraternity will not be made until next Kail. The Masonic Club i.nnounoe.l this week that it had been accepted as a chapter of th collegiate Masonic body known as the Acacia Kraternity. This makes the third national fraternity to enter the 1'niversity of Oregon, for the Acacia Is like Greek-letter fraternities except that each member must be a Master Mason. Oregon Is the smallest institu tion In the country to be thus honored. Some of the members of the old Ma sonic Club here are well advanced in Masonry, which, doubtless had Influ ence in obtaining the charter. Next year the chapter will be housed in a fine building near the campus. Only undergraduate members will live In the house, it is understood. In the roll of chapters of the Acacia Fraternity, 22 colleges and universities are repre sented. In part as follows: University of Michigan, Iceland Stanford, Jr., Uni versity.
