C Students ami Graduates Every where (or 111m. was burned with a total loss of less thnn 14000. To those familiar with the circumstances of the fire, the Tribune's accounts seem remarkable. White It was a hard slirht to see the tnd''mirn'wlth helpless horses inside, It la harder still to conceive of the quality of bug Juice required to pro duce the Tribune's effect. Evidently the morning paper has a corner on the supply, and It Is said their next trance 'will show Major Edwards bo Ing burned at the stake by 100 paint ed Indian devils within a few miles of the "heart of the city." It Is feared by some that the "Omaha detective" who recently did such clever work In the Naylor case la utwork on the Tribune force, and thaci.it was he who discovered the monstrous fire yesterday morning. Dr. James Wlthycombe, republican candidate for governor of Oregon, ar rived last evening from Portland, and after spending the night here left this morning for La Grande. After a brief stay In Union county he will re turn to the Willamette valley and de vote the remainder of the campaign to that section and southern Oregon. He will not visit Baker City, leaving Johns and Brown to fight It out In that city. This Is Dr. Wlthyeombe's first reg ular campaign trip. His work as di rector of the experiment station and professor of agriculture In O. A. C, has prevented him from making a personal canvass, although he has been over the state considerable at tending Institutes and other similar meetings. But recently he attended an agricultural meeting at Klamath Fall". However, he has now been granted a leave cf absence from the college, and will be In the field per sonally from now until after the pri maries. Dr. Wlthycombe realizes he has the lead among the republican candidates for governor, yet makes no boasts re garding the outcome. He has made a clean, dignified campaign which will be of credit to him whether he be successful or not. One source of Dr. Wlthyeombe's strength has been the friendship which former O. A. C. students feel for him. Also, the 750 students now enrolled at the college are enthusias tic supporters. However, he has stead ily sought to keep the school out of politics, and but a few days ago dis couraged the students when they pro posed forming a club In his Interest.

The Place is Tallman & Co. Leading Druggists I Victor Talking Machines Edison Phonographs Columbia Graphophones SALOONS ARE BARRED. Idaho Will Not Permit a "Joint" Within Five Miles of Railroad Camps. About 25 applications for liquor li censes were filed with the commis sioners this morning by the sheriff, and of these 20 were granted and two refused. The total amount of money represented Is f?500, says the Lewis ton Teller. The two licenses not granted were thoe from Klppen and from Spald ing. The former is barred by the law that says that no saloon shall be es tablished within five miles of a camp of laborers employed on railroads or other contract work. Klppen Is within the five-mile limit of the rail road work. Both licenses turned down were tavern licenses, and the one at Spald ing was denied because a tavern li cense cannot be granted where there are more than 60 voters In the pre cinct. Such a precinct must take out a regular saloon license. TWO EDUCATIONAL ADDRESSES. Ackermon and Campbell at the Chris tian Church. On April 17 J. H. Ackerman, state superintendent of public Instruction, and P. L. Campbell, president of the University of Oregon, will hold a meeting at the Christian church In this city.

Traver, su perintendent of the city schools, and Frank K. Welles, county superintendent. AnBACTED AT COAL EASTERN CONCERN SENT AN INSPECTING AGENT.

Necessary to Develop a Certain Jour nalistic Standard. "The most spectacular and awe In spiring fire In the history of eastern Oregon is raging at the Immense stockyards of A. C. Ruby & Co. That the Umatilla county coal fields are attracting attention outside of the state. Is shown by the secret visit of A. L. Waterman, an agent of a strong financial concern of Ottum wa, Iowa., to the coal mine being opened up by J. A. McLaughlin at ?5r2?.D9 In the western part of this county. Mr. Waterman recently visited the mine, and took extensive data con cerning the country, the feasible routes into that district, the topogra phy and mlnerology of the country, carried away many samples of the coal and pronounced the mine to be a portion of an Immense deposit which would perhaps be encountered In the valley 200 feet below the tunnel now being run by Mr. McLaughlin. While Waterman declined to say whom he represented he was author ized to spend plenty of money In mak ing examinations of the mine and spent several days In closely Investi gating every feature of the coal de posits being opened by Mr. McLaugh lin. Mr. McLaughlin In accordance with the advice of Mr. Waterman, Is sink ing a shaft In the valley, 258 feet be low the mouth of the tunnel, which he has run Into the hillside. From the surface downward, almost the entire distance which the shaft has been driven coal veins of various thlckneBses and quality have been en countered and Mr. McLaughlin feels confident that an Immense deposit will be uncovered in the creek bot tom, i Water Is now so plentiful In the ground that It requires a two-Inch HOW MINNEAPOLIS SA- IXMNS ARE REGULATED. Doors Are Cloned From Saturday Night Until 8 O'clock Monday Morning High License of $1000 Has ' Driven Most Disreputable Places Out of Business City Keeps Record of All Suspects. "Saloons are shut tight In Minne apolis from Saturday night until 8 o'clock Monday morning," said Detec tive F. Helln, of the Minneapolis po lice force yesterday, says the Spokane Chronicle. He Is In the city to get P. Lee, wanted there on a charge of get ting away with liquor house funds. 'The lid Is on In the -city as tight as though it were clamped down with railroad Iron. The richest man in thu city could not buy a drink In a saloon on Sunday-, because such nrnoHur would mean the forfeiture of the sa loon man's license. Furthermore, the police court fine for being Intoxicated Sunday has been changed from II and costs to SO days In Jail or Its equivalent. It has been facetiously suld that the liquor men have asked for the Imposition of the heavy fines for being Intoxicated Sunday In order to make the men of Minneapolis stay at home and spend their money In town Monday. "It has proved a fact that the $1000 license, known as the high li cense, has driven the toughest and most disreputable saloons out of Min neapolis. We have no saloon boxes at home. "Regarding the social evil, the city of Minneapolis confines It to a district the same as it Is confined to a district In this city. But In Minneapolis the violators are not fined. Here they are fined monthly. To prevent street walking, two plain clothes men are aslgned steadily to its suppression. City Tabs Its Suspects. "The Minneapolis city government and police department have put In operation an excellent system of keeping track of undesirable people. Thin is done with the aid of the li cense for expressmen and tiuckmeiu No expressman or truckman there can move a family without writing In a book the name of the person moved and the address formerly occupied and the new address. This Informa tion Is turned over to the police de partment dally and a typewritten rec ord .of It Is kept by the department. This same rule applies to baggage pusslng to and from the depots. It provides the police department with an Index to the movements of all sus picious persons, I am told there Is no such system In Spokane. "Patrolmen In Spokane receive $10 a month more than they are paid In Minneapolis ana izo a month more than they are paid In St. Paul. I be lieve that there la fully 110 difference between the cost of living In Mlnne apolls and the cost of living In Spo kane, with the difference In favor of Minneapolis. It Is the belief of old police officials that $66 a month, the St. Paul rate of pay, Is not enough salary to get first-class men for the police department, the salary being so small that It tempts men to graft. "St. Paul Is a wide open town. The saloons run day and night and every day In the week. The police depart ment and the city government are said to wink at the conditions that prevail." "As regards the social evil, for In stance," said Mr. Helln, "I saw more women tonight In two buildings than in the whole city of Minneapolis.

Mr. Davis, who has visited Boston and Philadelphia twice during the past winter and kept In close touch with the wool market declined to allow (he clip to be sold at that figure. When seen Mr. Davis eexpressed the greatest confidence that Carbon coun ty wool would bring a much higher figure than ever before and believes that those men who contract their wool early are making a mistake.
