lu the State?
(Orogonian.)
"Tlio finest apple orchard west of
tho Rocky Mountains is at Ashland
this state," sahl V. N. White, one of
the leading apple buyers and export
ers of the world, at the Portland
Hotel. Mr. White is the leading
member of W. N. White & Co., 70
Park Place, New York City, perhaps
the leading apple firm in America.
For 30 years, according to Mr.
White, tho firm lias bought and ex
ported more apples than any other
concern in tne world.
"I have seen many fine orchards in
the West this trip," continued Mr.
White, "but that one owned by Mr.
Helms, six miles out of Ashland, i3
b) far the finest. I would gladly give
him $10,000 for hia ton acres my
self; but he holds them at $1-1,000.
Hood Hiver is a splendid apple sec
tion, but I predict that in time Ash
land will lead them all. Mcdford also
has lino trees, but tho head of tho
Koguo River is almost perfection for
borne, kinds of fruits, especially ap
ples. Tho grapes at Ashland are
equal to anything in California.
"Oregon does not yet realize what
is within hcrborders, For instance,
figs can bo grown practically all over
the state. Walnuts can be raised at
an enormous profit in this state. In
the long run few, If any, crops pay
better than walnuts.
Splendid Pear Crop.
"Tho pear crop at Medford has In
creased by late climatic conditions
fully 30 per cent. Salem has a great
future. Tho town is well laid out
and excellently placed to catch the
business of tho Willamette Valley.
Tho Willamette Valley, by the way,
has few equals in America. So far it
is barely scratched. Wasteful meth
ods are employed, land is held In
largo farni3 of 1000 acres or so,
transportation lines are poor or none
at all, and intelligent marketing i3
neglected. When this valley, Hood
Hiver, Medford, Ashland-and other
places are held In small plot3 of
about ten acres for fruit and berries
and say 40 acres for farming pur
poses, then such towns as Salem,
Ashland and Medford will be ten
times as largo and wealthy as they
are now.
"The only thing I see to object to
In this city and state is that tho peo
plo are slow. Easy natural sur
roundings, where nature almost gives
a good living if a man but holds out
his hand to tako it, and lack of com
petition has made tho people too easy
going, not allvo to tho main chance,
as the saying is. Take the case of
eggs, butter and milk for instance.
-Portland, right in tho heart of a
' natural dairy country, has the high
est price, on butter of probably any
city in the Union. Pure milk 13 al
most impossible to get. The price
of eggs is beyond all reason.' Now
with such a market as this, with a
great and growing city simply clam
oring for eggs, butter and milk, do
you sco anybody in Oregon allvo to
the chance to make a fortune out of
such a condition?
Says State Is Asleep.
"No, sir. They just move along in
tho same sleepy way. The first thing
they know Chicago, for instance, that
has more rustle in a day than this
city has in a month, will jump in
hero with Eastern eggs, butter and
dressed poultry and sweep tho mar
ket right out of the hands of tho al
most lazy local farmers.
"Tho average Oregon and Wash
ington farmor ignores chickens. Ho
leaves eggs, butter and milk to the
women folks. This part of the coun
try has for many years been In some
thing like tho position of China, sort
of cut off from tho rest of civiliza
tion. Tho railroads have been largely
responsible, but bo that as it may,
tno fact remains that tho Pacific
Northwest is on the eve of some great
changes. Tho easy-going mossback
must go to thp wall or else wake up
and get busy. Chicago, for instance,
with her railroads reaching for niar
lroiH nvnn nH fnr n.wnv as Portland,
is no respecter of 'old families. All
Chicago cares about is money, tho
good hard cash, and if she ever gets
in hero with her merciless financial
ways Oregon farmers and merchants
will have a poor excuse to howl. They
have their chance right now, they are
calmly sleeping over it. If they wake
up with ompty pocket books to find
tneir market in Portland and other
Coast cities being supplied at reason
able rates from 1000 miles nway.vit
will be no one's fault but their own.
They need not come to mo for any
sympathy. ,, .
"With such land, such a climate,
such a market, It is almost a dis
grace that things here should be in
the condition they are. Portland is
crying for butter, paying in some

AST0RIA WILL TAKE
WISE PRECAUTIONS
To Fumigate Coastwise Ships, Guard
ing Against Introduction of
Plague from Hay City.
Astoria, Or., Aug. 25. In a very
short time all ships in the coastwise
trade entering tho Columbia River
will be subject to a fumigating pro
cess as a precaution against tho bu
bonic plague, which has recently
broken out in San Francisco and
which 13 said to bo raging In many
of the provinces of Manchuria. These
fumigating periods will occur once a
month an?! may apply to foreign ves
sels according to their status.
Dr. John M. Holt, of the Columbia
River quanantlne station, with offi
ces in this city, is the Instigator of
the plan and ho will Issue necessary
orders or bulletins in a very few days
which will carry out this work. Such
precautions are neces'sary on the
face, a3 bubonic plague is quick to
spread and is carried around tho
world in ships. The medium of
transmission of the plague germs i3
said to be the rats, which are to be
found In all ships in great numbers,
and Dr. Holt's plan is tp make a cam
paign against these animals.
Vessels will be required to fumi
gate once a month when thdy have
discharged cargo at the dpek. The
process is to continue 12 hours,
when, Dr. Holt says, all the rats will
be killed. This order applies to all
vessels in the coasting trade, and
foreign ves3el3 will be subject to the
same regulations. Dr. Holt will have

INVESTIGATION OF
ALLIANCE COLLISION
Portland Inspectors Probing for
Illume Seven Witnesses Ex
amined by Heard.
Portland, Oregon, Aug. 24.
Seven witnesses were examined
yesterday before Local Inspectors
Edwards and Fuller, in the investiga
tion for tho purposo of fixing the
blame for the collision between tho
steamers City of Panama and tho Al
liance, which occurred on the morn
ing of August S at Nigger Tom Is
land, at the mouth of tho Willamette
Itiver.
Little testimony of value was
brought out beyond the formal ac
knowledgment of tho captain of the
City of Panama that his ship did
strike the Alliance in tho stern and
caused considerable damage.
The first witness was Captain II.
T. Grove's, suporintednent of the
dredges of the Port of Portland.
Captain Groves was in command of
the Portland at the time of tho
trouble, and testified as to the posi
tion of the dredge, signals given and
to the fact that he called to the offi
cer came under the observation of
each at tho time, the story did not
differ from published reports of the
disaster. Tho testimony of Captain
Jessen, of tho steamship George W.
Elder, was irrelevant and incomplete.
He stated that he was asleep at tho
time and knew nothing of tho mat
ter. Captain A. W. Nelson, master of
the steamship City of Panama, was
tho last witness examined. Captain
Nelson admitted the main points of
the story heretofore told of the ac
cident. During the progress of tho trial
Attorneys Snow and Flanders lnter
posed a number of questions, which
did not alter tho trend of tho tale
told by each witness. Captain Willis
Snow, pilot In charge of tho City of
Panama, was not called upon. His
testimony will be taken this morn
ing, as will that of other officers of
me City of Panama. As far as the
taking of testimony Is concerned tho
matter will end today.
Mr. Peter Loggle was in town yes
terday after having been at Bandon
for about a week. Mr. Loggle found
things at that city in a progressive
state and thinks the place is show
ing as great improvement as the
cities on Coos Bay. The Price ship
yard is progressing well and tho pulp
mill is now said to be assured. Ev
erything shows bustle and there are
no idle people In the place.
Mr. Loggie is thinking some of at
tending the Deep Water way conven
tion at Memphis, Tennessee, some
time in October, being one of the
two delegates appointed by Governor
Chamberlain. Tho only matter which
will keep him from going is the
great expense connected with such an
undertaking. There Is no provision
for defraying the expenses to these
conventions except by a plan's pay
ing it himself or for the community
which ho represents coming to tho
front and making up tho money. In
speaking of Coos Bay and its re
sources, Mr. Logglo said the beat
tiling in his estimation to aid in call
ing the attention of the country and
government to Coos Hay is to ever
lastingly present the fact of our coal
facilities ami tho convenience which
It would offer as a coaling station for
the U. S. Navy. He says we cannqt
get this fact before tho country by
simply printing it in tho local press,
but It needs somebody on yie outside
at conventions and national gather
ings to keep telling tho people about
It.

C. NORRIS MISTAKES
FOG BUOY FOR COW
Charley Norrls of Ten Mile was In
tho city yesterday. Wo might havo
overlooked tho fact only for tho story
that "Jack" Marsden of North Bend
was tolling on him. It appears that
a short timo ago Charley was among
a party of campers at Sunset Bay.
the next morning unnney puzzieu
tho rest of tho party for quite a
while by complaining about some
blamed cow that kept up a miserable
noise all night. Ho never had heard
anything llko that on Ten Mile. Tho
cow seemed to bo In such awful dis
tress. It was finally figured out that
ic was the. fog buoy he had heard.
Naturally Charley is coming in for
some good-natured roasting.
London, Aug. 24. Former Con
gressman Jefferson Levy of New
York, who again is in London after
a short sojourn In Paris, says ho ex
pects Europe to be in America's debt
this autumn to the extent of about
$400,000,000.
"By the timo this year's cotton and
wheat crops have been sent over
here," said Levy. "Europe will havo
to get ready to mako some heavy
shipments of gold. Last year only
about $G5, 000,000 In gold was sent
us. Tho balance of the amount ow
ing us is about $325,000,000, paid
back in American securities, which
incidentally helped to depress thp
market.
"This year, however, Europe has
no American securities loft to speak
of, and practically tho full amount of
what she owes us for our wheat and
cotton will have to be paid for In
gold."

ALLIANCE WILL BE
ON RUN SATURDAY
Salem, Or., Aug. 23. The board
of regents of Oregon State Normal
schools today rescinded its action of
July IS, ordering that the Monmouth
and Drain Normals be operated this
year and instead a resolution was
adopted declaring that tho snhnnls
shall not be operated unless dona
tions are received and that "no do
nations are received without tho ex
press understanding and agreement
that no claim will be made for re
payment by the state or legislature."
The faculty already elected at
Monmouth was discharged and the
executive committee authorized to
elect a new faculty when funds are
available. No faculty has been elect
ed by Drain Normal. Ex-President
Ilessler, of Monmouth, says that his
institution will meet the conditions
imposed and that the school will run
next year. Ex-President Briggs, of
Drain, could not say what the friends
of that institution will do.
Resolution Adopted Unanimously.
ine resolution tnat expressed tho
new policy of the board was intro
duced by W. B. Ayer, and was adopt-
ea uy unanimous vote; not, however,
until after an extended discussion
was held, during which Colonel E.
Hofer offered an amendment, which
proposed the acceptance of donations
iwlthout condition as to claim for re
payment. Mr. Ayer's resolution was
drawn in accordance with his view
of tho powers of the board under the
law creating it and it Is supported
by an opinion he has obtained from
George H. Williams, Dolph, Mallory,
Simon and Gearin.
He took the position that if tho
hoard of regents should accept dona
tions that have been made with an
announcement that claim for repay
ment will be made, there would be a
moral obligation upon the part of
tho state to repay tho money. Thus
the board would in effect be creat
ing a debt, which it is forbidden to
do. - '
Schools Must Go Alone.
So far as the board of regents has
now anything to do with the matter,
the Drain and Monmouth schools will
not run next year, and it is up" to the
friends of the schools to take action.
If thoy do not run as normal schools
tho heard will be willing to lease the
buildings for local school purposes.
Monmouth Normal lvis an tncomo
of $4500 from the local school dis
trict, $1000 from tuition and Presi
dent Ressler says that $0000 can bo
raised by donations. This, ho says,
will be sufficient, as tho teachers
have agreed to serve for $750 a year
each.
Tho board today adopted tho fol
lowing resolution offered by Colonel
E. Hofer and intended to encourage
the preparation of students for work
as teachers:
Whereas, The State University
maintains a department of education,
giving courses In tho philosophy of
education and higher pedagogy; and
Whereas, The State Agricultural
College is giving a training course in
agriculture at its Summer school;
therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Stato Board of
Normal School Regents, that we rec
ognize the State University and the
State Agricultural College as import
ant adjuncts to tho normal schools in
the training and preparation of
teachers, especially those required in
the high schools of the state, and In
order to secure harmonious co-operation
In tho development of tho edu
cational system of the state, and to
that end wo recommend that the
conmlttee on courses of study hold
a conference with tho heads of those
institutions.
SUIT BROUGHT TO

The' mayor and council of Marsh

adopted by tlio city. Mrs. Frances
McLeod owned certain property on
Cedar street and conforming to tho
Cathcart plat, when tho eradp of tlm
street was lowered built a costly re

Tho city council have not returned

it Is tho Intention of the contractor,
J. J. Burns, to tear down tho retain

MARSHFIELD WINS
FROM NORTH BEND
Game of IS to 12 Was Poorest
Played on Local Grounds
This Vear.
The ball game played hero on Sun
day between Marshfleld and North
Bend was a farce as thero was the
greatest exhibition of poor playing
that has been seen on Coos Bay thl3
season. Both teams wero short of
regular players and filled In with
substitutes. But the substitutes wero
not the ones who made the bad
plays. The old players were unable,
many of them, to pick up the easiest
grounders and when they did, they
threw the ball over the first base
man or the catcher. A great many
of the crowd left before the game
was finished. North Bend started out
as If she would win tho game, gath
ering four runs In the first Inning.
'tho gamo see-sawed until the fifth
inning, when each side had ten
scores. In the sixth, Marshfleld be
gan to pull away, and kept tho lead
to the end of tlio game. Tho score
was 18 to 12, a pasture score, but It
gave Marshfleld second place.
Bandon fell before tho leaders at
Bandon, and thus gavo tho Coqullle
boys another boost In the percentage
column. Tho score wns 12 to 1.
