Three officers of the general staff of headquarters at Washington, D. C-, conducted the in spection, including Colonel' F. 'J. Mor row, Major James McKinley and Cap tain Klvtl Hunt. MORE IlfSTBUCTORS The 'college has been ranked as one of the'-small number of distinguished Institutions for the last two years. This year, under- the direction -of Major Jo seph K. Partello, the college 'military department has been . brought t6 a higher state of development by the ad dition of four .new units .to the college military course. These' are- the- field artillery, engineering, cavalry, and mo tor transport corps. Besides these are the infantry unit and a radio class, which, have' been conducted In times past. To supervise these differeht de partments, nine commissioned officers and 40 enlisted men are detailed to-O. A. C by the government war depart ment. Equipment amounting' to, more than $600,000 has been provided by the gov ernment from material produced for war 'purposes in order to provide real 'training for the men taking military Instruction. The government also meets ,u further expense of more than $200,000 annually for maintenance. The artillery unit alone has consign ments of materials amounting to more than $400,000. There is a single field piece, a big 153 O. P. F. gun, -camouflaged for war purposes and valued at $31,000. Another 155 American - how itzer is valued at $18,000. There are models of the famous 75s, not only French, but English and American as well,, valued at $10,000 apiece. A com plete' battery of St-inch guns round out the artillery unit.' Caterpillar tractors, motor transport trucks, touring cars, and motorcycles with side cars complete the equipment. 'There are 90 horses and four mules, one complete wireless outfit, and the usual complete supply of uniforms, arms and tunmtmition, all of the latest patterns. :ma:nt GO TO . CAMPS The O. A. C has been especially fa vored with a large amount of ma terial" sent here oy the government, the result of creditable work done by the military department in the past. The material was originally produced for war purposes, and it was felt that the best purpose to which it could now be put would be to provide practice- for men taking IV O. T. C. military train ing at the' land grant colleges, which are required by law to provide for mili tary instruction. ' The college military department is this year sending more than 250 men to the various summer training camps of the R. p. T. C, the largest number ever sent frbm O. ;A., C.

Tern pleton, president of the Linn County Pioneers association, is arranging for th,e thirty-fifth annual pioneer picnic and reunion, June 16-1S. Ses sions are held in Brownsville each year. - The organization meeting S5 years ago, was held at Crawfordsville, seven miles from here. - A second meeting was held at iialsey, where the pioneers : were forced to drink water out of a barrel and picnic in the hot sun. Since then the Linn county pioneers have voted to meet at Brownsville, where the facilities are held perfect. ; Another' reason for the popularity of Brownsville is the historic importance of this region, where some of the first industrial institutions of the state were located. The Rev. Mr. Spaulding, com patriot of Whitman, taught -f school, farmed and raised his children : here, and his wife was buried in the Browns ville Masonic cementery. Old Aunt Eliza, last ' living representative of The once populous Calapoola , Indian tribe, dwells at this city, a ward of the county. Many houses in Brownsville were con structed by empire builders and indus trial geniuses of the early.: days. And the forests that- border the town have looked down upon the stirring deeds of such pioneers as J. M., Moyer of woolen mill and sawmill fame; Captain Hugh L. Blakely, who took Linn county com panies of volunteers southward Into the Rogue river Indian war: A.' W. Stanard, farmer, Indian fighter, county clerk, one timer mayor of Albany, and man who, when surveying the buttes where Brownsville now stands, was followed for two days by grey .timber wolves ; and. Father Robe, first of the Presbyterian preachers, on. the Pacific coast. ' Templeton said that much will be made this year of the industrial and agricul tural exhibit by Linn county farmers 'and growers.'' Liberal premiums will be offered for the best displays. ' The officers of the pioneer association at present are A. M. Templeton, presi dent : Henry Blakely. vice president ; J. W. Craig, secretary ; and J, M. Coshow, George Drinkard and W. C- Cooley, di rectors. -, v Montana Minister; Arrives in Milton For Church Charge Milton, Or., May 22. The Rev. O. D. Harris and family have arrived from Kallspell. Mont. Harris was called by the.

Corey said that this matter , will be investigated, and that if necessary the interstate commission will be asked to stop such practices in states east of Baker, where cars are being di verted.
