The Russian government feels that a
frank interchange of views between men
having the best interests of the two
countries at heart will be likely to result
in mutual concessions that will eventual

treaty between Russia and Japan.
there is a chance the Russian govern

one of Von Rosens rank. That is all
that is admitted at the Russian capital

likely to be admitted until tbe pleni

Drain, June 9. Whether tbe Drain
Normal school will be in operation
next vear is a question that was not
decided at the annual meeting of tbe
Board of Regents in this city yester
day. Tbe matter rests with tbe ex
ecutive board, which was authorized by
a resolution passed to employ teachers
for another year, providing they could
abtain sufficient funds, or a safe guar
antee thereof, with which to pay the
salaries. This executive board consists
of three residents of Drain. J. A. Black,
W. W. Kent and W. A. Perkins. Two
other.regents who were in attendance
were Geo. E. Chamberlain, Secretary of
State F. I. Dunbar and Supt. of Public
Instruction J. H. Ackerman, Attorney
Dexter Rice, of Roseburg; Hon R. M.
Veatch, of Cottage Grove ; Capt. B. D.
Boa well, of Boswell ; W. W. Wilson, of
Drain, and Jos. Lyons, of Portland.
What plans the executive board in
tends to pursue is not known, but tbey
must either raise funds from local
sources or take chances upon the ref
erendum petition being turned down
by the people, in which latter event
the legislature of 1907 would probably
make good tbe appropriation of 1905.

compel the Secretary of State to issue
warrants for the salaries of the teachers.
The Kay law specifies that warrants
be issued monthly for the payment of
salaries of "state" institutions, whereas
the normal schools are dependent for
support not upon the "state" but upon
special appropriations from the legis
lature. This distinction was pointed
out at the meeting of the hoard by
Secretary of State Dunbar.

In a few well chosen remarks Exalted
Ruler C. B. Cannon introduced Hon.
ieo. M. Brown as orator of the evening.
Mr. Brown seemed at his best. He said
since Governor Chamberlain was down
on the program for an address he would
only make a few remarks, however, he
aunched forth eloquently. He congratu
lated the live and ambitious Elks upon
acquiring such a palatial home and also
congratulated Contractor Hunter, the
builder, upon his conscientious and
painstaking work, the kind all Elks exe
cute. He paid a glowing tribute to the
Elks dwelling upon the cardinal princi
ples of the order "fidelity, brotherly
love, justice and charity" a truly
American order. No politics or creed
enters into the eligibility of a member.
He may be a populist, democrat, repub
lican or prohibitionist. Here the speak
er was loudly applauded. He concluded
bv demonstrating that the order was
founded on good moral principles and
that a man could lie but a better man
by adhering to the requirements of the
order.

rendered in a charming manner the

saying " I have gone down town to have

sarcastically replied the hospital attend

his wife to return home in the evening

his mistake called his wife by phone
who said she knew what he was going
to say that he would not be home till

asked the Senator. "Oh, because you'r

Hon. Binger Hermann res)onded to
the toast "Our Nation," and paid a
glowing tribute to the country and its

and progreesiveness. He said it hd
done honor to itself, to Ki-ehurK and
to tbe state. He said Oregon Elks now
number 5000.
Here congratulatory telegrams were
read by Exalted Kuler Cannon from
the Portland aud Ashland Elks lodges.
Mr. Cannon then introduced Judge L
T. Harris, who, he said, had insisted on
being erniitted to respond to the toast.
"The Ladle," but had requested that
the matter be not mentioned to his wife.
The Judge in reference to his subject

(Senator Carter of Jackson county was
called upon to respond to the toast,

reputation of being a very fair impromp

Beautiful specimens of elks' heads and

the room, for the use of members. Some
impression of the substantial elegance
of these furnishings may be gained
from the fait that the main alter cost
