TEXTBOOKS CHANGE
Only Four Are Retained and Two
Subjects Are Dropped.
QRAINGROWERS COMBINE.
USED BOOKS HAY BE EXCHANGED
Cost of Now Set, Omitting Nature
Study, Less Than Old Con
tracts Well Distributed.
Salem, Or., Juno 6. All but four
books now in use In the common
schools of Oregon have been changed
by the State Text-Book Commission
and new text-books will be substi
tuted at the beginning of the new
school year. The fourth and fifth
Cyr readers, the Thomas elementary
history and the Reed speller are the
books retained.
Civil government has been dropped
entirely as a separate subject and
will hereafter be taught in connec
tion with history. The mental arith
metic has also been dropped and the
mental exercises will bo given with
the aid of the books on written arith
metic. In the place of the two sub
jects dropped, an important one has
been added, that of elementary agri
culture. This addition has been
made In response to a very general
demand.
The principal changes are the sub
stitution of Wheeler's readers up to
the third book for the Cyr readers;
the adoption of Smith's arithmetics
in the place of "Wentworth's; the
adoption of Buehler's grammers in
the place of Reed & Kellogg's; the
adoption of the Natural geographies
in the place of Frye's and Doub's
United States history In the place of
Thomas' advanced history.
The total cost of the books used in
the schools under the list in force up
to the present time was $9.80, this
list not including the book on nature
study. The prices of those newly
adopted, not including the nature
study, aggregate $9.14, or a reduc
tion of 66 cents. If nature study be
included the new list will cost $9.S9,
or an increase of 9 cents in the cost
of all the books a child must use in
his eight years of schooling.

up their trains; confessed that he
cruelly fired charges of buckshot Into
the body of Detective Lyte Gregory,
of Denver, killing him Instantly; con

Farmers Will Hold Tholr Products
Until Proper Price Is Paid.
Omaha, Neb., Juno 7. Tho 200
delegates called into convention by
the American Society or Equity yes
terday practically completed tho or
ganization of tho most formldablo
combine over attempted for tho pur
pose of controlling tho prices of
grain, to bo known as tho Grain
growers' Department of tho Ameri
can Society of Equity.
It ndopted a constitution and set
of by-laws which plainly Indicated
its objects. Thoy state In so many
words that tho purpose of tho organ
ization is to control distribution and
namo a minimum price at which its
members may dispose of their farm
grain products, which are enumer
ated as being anything from wheat
to broomcorn.
Tho matter of finances has not
been overlooked, and tho organiza
tion makes a pledge to Its members
whereby they may borrow money In
any reasonable sum, which may bo
secured by. their holdings of grain
while It remains in a granary or ele
vator. It was announced to the meeting
that over 500 banks had pledged
themselves to make loans to tho
members of tho association when en
dorsements were made by properly
accredited officials. Tho convention
made itself felt in the matter of pol
itics during the day, when, Charlos
A. Walsh, of Ottumwa, la., a former
secretary of the Democratic National
Committee and at this time an or
ganizer of Independence League
Clubs for Hearst, was given plainly
to understand that his presence In
the capacity of an organizer was not
required.
Mr. Walsh dropped into the city
Tuesday, and it was stated that he
would endeavor to get his propa
ganda before the convention. This
Idea was quietly out promptly sat
down on. Many of the delegates did
not know of his presence at the con
vention until after he had left the
city yesterday afternoon.
With 'each committee report came
a revelation. When the finance
committeee reported it was to the ef
fect that all convention expenses had
been arranged for and that a good
fund was in sight for the field work
which is to begin at once. Chairman
Pauley of that committee and three
other members, an bankers, were
unanimous in a sttaement that 535
banks over the country were ready
to furnish all Ihe money necessary
to carry out the objects of the asso
ciation. The plan is to make low rate loans
to farmers on their grain after it is
threshed and hold it In society gran
aries and elevators until the price
demanded Is available. The plan
also contemplates a European
agency for shipping grain direct to
European markets.
A committee on crop intelligence
reported a plan whereby all informa
tion is to be withheld until it is
called for by the association statis
tician. A partial crop report was
made to the convention, In whfch it
was stated that wheat in Oklahoma,
Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota and
the Dakotas would average below 70
per cent of last year's crop.
BALLOONIST'S CLOSE'CALL.
OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST
LABEL ALL FRUIT.
Growors Find Sovoral Ways of Oboylng
Nov Law.
Salom. Now that tho fruit-shipping
season has begun, growers aro con
fronted with tho necessity of comply
ing with tho now law, enacted by
tho Inst Legislature, requiring that
every box or packngo of green fruit
shall bo marked with tho immo aud ad
dress of tho grower and pucker. Jlero
ut Stilimi thoro aro various methods of
I mintdvintr with tlio Inw. mill Homo fruit
is going out with no mark at all. Tho
only fruit shipped thus far is straw
berries, packed iu smnll boxes, i!4 in
a crate. Somo growers stamp their
names and addresses upon each small
box, so that tho consumor will know
by whom tho fruit was grown, and so
that if thoro is anything wrong with
it tho dealer will know whoro to mako
tho complaint. Others mark tho namo
ami address only upon tho crnto. In
almost all instances tho stamp placed
upon tho box or crnto gives only tho
namo aud address, and does not say
whothor tho person whoso name appears
is grower or packor, or both. Tho sec
tion of the new law bearing on tho sub
ject is as follows:
"Any person, firm, association or cor
poration engaged iu growing, selling or
packing green fruits of any kind within
tho State of Oregon shall bo required,
upon packing any such fruit for mar
ket, whether intended for sale within
or without the State of Oregon, to
stamp, mark or label plainly upon tho
outside of every box or package of
green fruit so packed tho namo and
postoflico address of tho porsou, firm
association or corporation packing tho
same; provided, further, that when tlio
grower of such fruit bo other than tho
packer of tho same, tho namo and post
oflico of sucli grower shall also promi
nently appear upon such box or pack
age as the grower of such fruit."

cording to tho latest advices from Cali
fornia, a 4-ccnt basis prico was offered
there several days ago, or 5 cents
for the 40-50 size. Now that buyers
aro active and tho market advancing,
the growers are doing a great deal of
figuring before making contracts. At
the same time, it is reported that quite
a number of contracts have been made.
W. C. Tillson & Co. report having made

Lyman Beechy, Well Known at the
Lewis and CJark Exposition.
Boston, June 7. The breaking
down of his motor, which allowed
the airship he was navigating to be
blown seaward, almost resulted in
the death of Lincoln Beechey off Re
vere Be'ech yesterday. Beechey made
a seven-mile journey from Revere
Beech to Boston. On the return
journey the motor became disabled
when the aeronaut was a mile off
shore, over Boston harbor, and the
airship was carried some distance
seaward.
Beechey managed partially to re
pair his engine so as to get back to
the vicinity of Revere Beach. When
several hundred feet off shore, the
airship settled rapidly, and it looked
as If Beechey would be thrown Into
the water. Men in rowboats and
launches seized the drag-rope and
towed him and his apparatus aBhore
before he struck the water.

San Francisco, June 5. A 12:20
this morning San Francisco aud the
cities about the hay were shaken by
a severe earthquake. The shock was
the severest since the disastrous trent

not violent enough to sever electrical
connections, aud although the entire
lire department was placed in readi
ness to fight any fires that might fol
low, there was no blaze of any con
sequence. ,
As far as can he learned at this
hour the damage was limited to the
breaking of dishes on the shelves and
the destruction of a few tottering
walls in the burned district.
In the residence district a number
of people ran into the streets iu their
night clothes. Along Golden Gate
avenue a genuine panic prevailed. Scv-
eral hundred women rushed to-the
street iu their night clothes. Three
women were treated for nervous
shock, but no one suffered injury, as
far as reported. ...

'two sharp shocks, the second follow
iHg while the cnrtii Mill trcmuicu
from the first. The coining of the
shake was announced by the rattling
of windows and the swinging of
chandeliers. Then came an adrupt jolt
and then a lessening tremble, to be
followed by another quick jolt and a
gradual lessening of motion.
Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda and
other liny cities reported a shock ex
actly like that felt here. i .
llitnnriii cm fnr received indicate
that the shake was felt at least as far

James II. Hawlcy, senior of the group
of prosecutors, the State of Idaho
today made the opening statement
against William D. Haywood, whom
it charges with the murder of Frank

of Miners, who were charged with
plotting wholesale murder and hiring
assassins, all iu a gigantic conspiracy
of vengeance upon those who ob
structed their sway, to destroy oppo
sition by terrorism, to control the po
litical destinies of the communities
covered by their organization and to
perpetuate their own power within the
organization.
It charged a widespread conspiracy
dating in inception from the North
Idaho disturbances 15 years ago,
reaching down to the murder of Frank
Steunenberg, and whose murdered
victims by bullet and bomb numbered
scores, flawlcy declared that wher
ever in the mining sections of the
Coast States the federation had been

of blood to mark its operations. Of
the hired assassins he cried:
"To them murder became a trade
and assassination a means of living.''
