Unusual Specimen Bagged

you see the remarkable hide which
a Statesman reporter viewed last
night, you will either change your
mind or believe yon are dream

white, but It was as much white
as brown, the traditional deer ha
berdashery. This 300 pound three
point buck had a pure white belly,
white flanks, and a nearly white
rump. White patches on Its sides
ran up In spots to the backbone.
To say that it was at least 50 per
cent white is no exaggeration.

the Angora rug company, 1348

It Is supposed a scientific fact
that albinos may appear in the
animal kingdom. But these
"freaks" are extremely rare In
comparison to the number of more
or less normal animals.
This unusual hide probably will
be on exhibition, at the rug plant
as soon as It Is mounted.

LUPER HEARING
IS HELD HERE;
REPORT WAITS
Further Meeting Planned on
Thursday by Reclama
tion Commission
Newspapermen Barred From
Proceeding and Word
Not1 Given out
Newspapermen were barred
from attending a special meeting
of the state reclamation commis
sion held here Tuesday to consider
a recent audit of the books and
accounts of Rhea Luper, state en
gineer. Governor Norblad announced at
the conclusion of the conference
that the investigation virtually had
been completed but that another
meeting would be held Thurs
day. A statement will be issued by
the commission at that time.
Reports were current about
town that a "whitewash" for the
state engineer was in prospect al
though how any such information
could have leaked from the three
members of the reclamation com
mission was not clear.
Governor Had
List of Questions
Although the conference pro
ceedings were guarded carefully,
it was learned that Governor Nor
blad previously had prepared a
list of questions which he intend
ed to propound to Luper during
the hearing.
One of these questions was In
connection with the alleged reten
tion by Luper of approximately
$1,800 Interest accuring on Irri
gation bonds which he had failed
to credit either to the state or
any of its political subdivisions.
This money was said to have been
retained by Luper since October,
1926, and was paid to the state
treasurer here only 10 days ago.
Luper previously had contend
ed that this Interest did not belong
to the state for the reason that it
accrued from irrigation district
funds and was not earned by any
state account.
The report r the auditors also
disclosed a deficit to balance ac
counts of $1500, but this was said
to be technical. The charge also
was made that Luper had kept
certain state documents in his pri
vate safety deposit vault.
The audit also criticised Luper
in connection with the disburse
ment of funds from the sale of
Warmsprings Irrigation distri't
bond Interest coupons at a dis
count to land owners within the
district for the purpose of paying
their taxes and the proceeds used
' the bondholders' committee for
feamlttee's expenses.
Governor Norblad announced a
week ,ago that he also would ask
Luper to explain the payment of
certain attorney's fees and travel
ing expenses connected with his
department.
The state reclamation commis
sion is composed of Governor Nor
blad, Secretary of State Hoss and
State Treasurer Kay.
Summer Job
Is Unusual;

Talk about college students ac
cepting any kind of honest job to
help make expenses! They haven't
anything on Salem school teach
ers. At least one of the men on
the faculty worked on the road
part of the summer; several
teachers made house to house
canvasses in selling articles; oth
er teachers are working in the
canneries here, and probably will
be doing so right up to Friday of
this week. Another teacher
waited tables at one of the state's
summer playgrounds.
And that's just a few of the
things Salem teachers did.
But yesterday Superintendent
Hug discovered a teacher in a
new occupation for teachers; at
least women ones. He needed a
teacher to fill a last minute va
cancy; he sent for one recom
mended to him. He found she
was a mighty busy person oper
ating a header on a combine In,
the fields of a farm not so far
from Salem.
It's a safe bet Ae superinten
dent will recommend to the
board, when it meets next week,
that this woman be elected to fill
the faculty vacancy. . '
