BLOODHOUNDS
You'll Be Pleased Tomorrow With the Number of Savings in the

The first Friday in our "Inauguration Month" will see such extraordinary offerings from
Board of Control Decides It
Would Be Too Expensive
to Keep Chasers,
Salem, Or., Nov. 4. Governor Wlthy
eornbe's i'lea that bloodhounds should
be secured at the- state prison to trail
escaped convicts got a setback at the
meeting of the state board of controi
yesterday afternoon. A letter from
the Wed Lumber company of Weed,
Oal., offering to sell two bloodhounds
for $2i0 f. o. 1. at Weed, was read and
during the discussion Warden Mlnto
told the board that It would be neces
sary to have one man devote his time
to taking: care of the dogs in order to
make them efficient.
As this would mean an expense of
$100 per month in taking care of the
dogs, State Treasurer Kay announced
that he was emphatically opponed to
making the purchase. Olcott also did
not favor It.
'Minto wa8 not In favor of the plan.
It became apparent during the dis
cussion. He said the greatest value
probably would be In having the con
victs realize that the dogs were kept at
the prison and would he available for
use. He said bloodhounds were not
used to any extent In northern prisons,
' but that nearly all the southern pris
ons had iliiin.
rutier'g Salary Increased.
Warden Minto was given authority
to increase the salary of Captain of
the Guard Kirfher from $75 per montn
to $100 per month. He said the force
of employes would be greatly increased
shortly be a use of reduction in outside
work. j
The warden was given authority to
sell surplus of hogs and cattle. Ho
was also authorized to make some im
provements on botli sides of the road
way It-udlng to the institution in the
way of lawns and rosea and shrubbery.!
Unless the state game and fish com-1
mission pays for a certain fence pur-
chased of Superintendent Stelner, com-!
plication may arise and certain deer
may be freed, according to Stelner. j
Secretary (Joodln was Instructed to j
seek long-delayed payment of the
amount claimed.
Boys on Increase.
During the month the state training
school for boys had the greatest num
ber of boyg in Its history, the number
November 1 being 132. In October 23 j
were rei-ivca, six were aiscnargea ana
one died.
The board decided ft. modern X-Uay
machine necessary for the state hosp
tnl for the insane and that one would
have to be purchased. The plan to
mov the otif iiKpii hv iIia Btuto (n,iiul
trial accident commission to the Iidh
pltal was not feasible, It was decided.
Board of Control
Rejects Club Offer
Gift of 9300 Fer Month Toted by the
Woman's Federation Can Not Be
Used by State Institution. ,
Salem, Or., Nov. 4. The state board
of contiol voted yesterday afteriion
to decline the gift of Sl'OO per mriiith
for a year, which the Oregon Fed
eration of Woman's clubs voted at
the annual convention last week to
ward the maintenance of the state tu
berculosis SHtiltarlum.
Both Secretary of State Olcott and
State Treasurer Kay took the position
that the state should not accept alms
from any source for the support of
an institution and that If there was In
nufficlent funds to support the im
tlents out of the regluar biennial ap
portionment, the slate emergency bn;ird
should be called together and money
provided. Governor Withycomhe was
absent In San Francisco.
Treasurer Kay declared that If the
Institution needed any additional
money for its support it could Ket it.
The fund I ad been secured by the
sale of stamps by the woman's clubs
and is a part of $3700 derived iu that
manner.
It appeared that Superintendent Bal
llnger of the state tuberculosis insti
tution had written the Federation of
Woman's clubs requesting that the
amount be spent in maintenance of
his Institution, but he had no author
ity so . to do from the state board of
control. In a statement to the board
be said that the members wore out
r.f town the day when he learned that
the federation would probably be .will
ing to expend "it In the support of the
state institution. He figured that he
would make the money go twice as far
as they could.
Treasurer Kay argued that if (he
clubs' fund was to be expended In get
ting luxuries or extra comforts at
the tuberculosis Institution It would
be all right, but that it could not be
accepted for regular maintenance.
