many instruments are acknowledg
ed by H. P. Jones, clerk of Lincoln
county, which Is now being done

clerk. It is certainly a relief to
Mr, Waters to know that he has
brought the important and partic
ular work to a finish, and the peo

prowd of having the neatest and
best-written set of records in the
state, for which Mr. Watters is
justly entitled the praise, as he used
his every effort in accomplishing

Newport has a tase 6 genuine
highway robbery. Yesterday while
Peter Stoker was fetwnin from a
fishing trip and was coming along
the trail towards his house be was
con 1 routed by a man with a mask
over his face and a shoe gun in his
hand, who ordered him to stand
and deliver. Mr. Stoker had a
coat on his arm and the robber
made him lay the coat '.ovn and
lay his money $4.50 on top of it.
The thief then compelled him to
stay there for about three quarters
of an hour. Mr. Stoker finally es
caped through the brush and ran
for home. When he arrived there
he found that his house had been
broken into during his absence and
ransacked, though tho only thing of
value he missed was his shot gun.
Mr. Stoker went at once down
and. gave the alarm and swore out
a warrant for the arrest of the high
wayman. Sheiff Landis and other
offteers were notirjed to be on the
look out for any suspicious charac
ter. The highwayman was de
scribed as being of a rather heavy
build, and wore dark pants, light
coat and dark hat; his face being
maskeij could not bs described.
The authorities have their sus
picions as to who the qujlty parties
are but no arrests have yet been
made
The Executive committee and
Buildinp- mmmlitfifl nf flip nn-ontc
... ' -o
of the State Agricultural College at
Corvallis met in flalem yesterday
says the Journal to consider school
finance and buildings. About
$16,000 in wan-ants were issued to
the treasurer Dr. Applewhite.
These are not available however,
but draw 8 per cent interest, and
are stamped "not paid for the
want of funds." Ttie college gets
$3.75o quarterly from Washington
B I . . a .a
lor ine station work, ana it is
thought by the regents present
that the school had enough funrjs
to run this year if the state war
rents can bu ensued by the latter
part of the year. The condition of
the accounts of the late Treasury,
A. R. Shipley, was discussed and
some light is thrown on the matter.
A few days before the bank closed
Treasurer Shipley drew a $10,000
warrant of the state treasurer, out
f a JPVi000 appropriation and do
posited it with Hamilton, Job &
Co. They endorsed it and sent it
to Lad l and' & Tilton to pay a
debt they owed there and the state
treasurer cashed it with their en
dorsement. They practically paid
a private bank balance with public
money. That is a matter of record
that will be shown in due season.
Proceedings will be begun by the
lixecutive committee both criminal
and on the bond of A. R. Shipley,
deceased. It was plainly a viola
tion of the statue forbidding bank
ers to use public funds or draw the
interest on them, and the most vig
orous steps will be taken by the
state to save itself. Judce Boise of
the regents is acting with Judge
Burnett of Corvallis as counsel for
the state.
