WOODROW WILSON HANDS
If HIS RESIGNATION
Princton, N. jr., Oct 20. President
Woodrow Wilson of Princeton Unf
verslty, democratic candidate for gov
ernor of New Jersey, today offered
his resignation as head of the great
educational Institution to the board
of trustees. Whether 'the board,
which, ,1s In session today, will accept
the resignation, Is doubtful. They
value highly President Wilson's ser
vices, and are reluctant to part with
him. It Is quite probable that the
resignation will be held In abeyance
until after Nov. 8 next, so that If
Dr. Wilson falls of election as gover
nor he may return to his old post.
The distinguished educator Is now In
the 'midst of a spirited campaign, and
devotes practically his entire time to
his political Interests.
Many names have been suggested
as possible successors to Dr. Wilson,
In case the latter Is elected governor.
Prof. Andrew V. West, dean of the
graduate school. Is s? favorite with
many Princeton men. Former May
or McClellan of New York, Dean
Henry Burchard Fine, President, John
Flnley of the College ef the City of
New Tork, and President Harry Oar
field of William College, son of Presi
dent Garfield, are among other prom
inently mentioned.
In some quarters the retirement of
President 'JV'ilson Is looked upon as
a solution of the strife of last year
regarding his graduate school politics.
As governor of New Jersey, however,
he would remain ex-offlclo president
of the Princeton board of trustees,
and would be able to exercise a great
deal of Influence over the conduct
of the Institution.

DAVID BENUET BILL
PASSES 10 BEYOND
GREAT DEMOCRATIC BOSS
OF NEW YORK IS DEAR
Man Who Has Been Great Faelor in
Politics In F.mplro State Answers
Last Sail Sought Presidential Chair
for Years.
Albany, N. Y., Oct. 20. David
Bennett Hill, democratic leader and
former governor of this state, and ex
Unlled States senator, died at bis
home here this morning. Ho had
been 111 two weeks with a cold when
convocations set In. He was im
proving but his age was responsible
for a relapso last night and he soon
died. Hill has been the dominating
power In New York politics for years
He was a truly great lawyer. He
was born In 1849, was admitted to the
bar in '64 and was a delegate to the
democratic national convention In
'77. Since then his rise was rapid.
With his eyes always on the
presidency, Hill, while governor seiz
ed the democratic Btate machlno.
Following Cleveland's dufe.it In 1888
Hill and Cleveland fought bitterly for
control in 189S of the New York del
egation to the national convention.
Hill won but owing to a political
throw down on the part of men
whom he thought friends, Cleveland
secured the nomination. . In 1891
however ho was eloctcd senator. Af
ter that term he retired.
Praise for Champion Raddle.
Mark Moorhouse, exhibition man
ager for the recent Roundup, has vol
untarily presented Hamley & Son with
a letter In -which he says: "I have
seen a number of prle saddles, in
cluding a half dozen that were pre
sented By the Union Pacific Railroad
company at the Frontier Day celebra

my opinion the saddle presented by
you at the Roundup is much more
handsome than any I have ever seen.
SCOURING DILLS
CLOSE FOR SEASON
After a' very successful run last
ing six months the Pendleton scour
ing mills will close for the season on
Saturday November 5. An announce
ment to this effect was made today
by E. J. Burke, secretary of the mill
company and who has been In active
charge of the plant this year.
According to Mr. Burke the local
mill has scoured two and one half
million pounds of wool this year. This
is a heavier business than was done
last year and is more than both the
other scouring mills of the state have
handled this season.
But while much wool has been
scoured here this year the total am
ount of wool handled through this city
has been less than last year. Last
year approximately seven million
pounds of wool was baled or scoured
here. This year there has been less
baling to do owing to the fact that
the railroads now give a good rate on
sack wool, and much of the north
west clip goes east without being
baled In the west
Through the season at the scouring
mill an average of 35 men have been
employed and the mill has paid out
approximately $800 per week in
wages. The payroll will cease on
November 5 as the plant Is to be clos
ed down completely until spring.
Work preparatory to the closing down
of the plant Is now underway. Ac
cording to Mr. Burke the plant will
not resume work until spring, even
should some more wool be purchased.
After closing up his work here Mr.
Burke will leave jipon a short trip
east but will return west and with
Mrs. Burke spend the winter In Port
land. 120 CARLOADS OF APPLES
FROM 100 ACRE TRACT
Spokane, Wash. Pomona ranch oi
100 acres at Dayton, Wash.. In the
Touchet valley, south of Spokane,
yielded 120 carloads of standard win
ter apples this season, which Is be
lieved to be a record for an orchard
of this extent. The yield Is 200 pet
cent greater than In 1909. The apples
are free from blemishes and a care
ful examination showed but one
wormy apple for each 1.000. The
acre average was 750 bushels from 70
trees, though Individual acres run as
high as 550 boxes. The owners paid
125.000 for pllcklng and packing and
boxes, and it Is estimated It will cost
135.000 to transport the crop to
eastern markets. The commercial
value of the yield is placed at 1100,
000. The orchard was developed by
J. L. Dumas of Dayton, ex-presldent
of the Washington State Horticultur
al association, who sold it to a syndi
cate of Walla Walla and Dayton cap
italists for $150,000 several month
ago, at which time It was estimated
the crop would reach a value of $76.
000 on the ranch.
STRANGE PAPERS ARE
PUZZLE TO SCIENTISTS
Calcutta. Some remarkably Inter
esting documents from Central Asia
have been acquired by the Asiatic
Society of Bengal from a Montene
grin gentlemen. They consist of five
leaves of brownish yellow paper,
measuring 8 Inches by 3 3-4 Inches.
The truo significance of these five
leaves, the genuineness of which can
not be doubted. Is that scholars ure
here confronted with a number of
consecutive passages In a language
to which no clue has yet been found
and of which hitherto only fragments
have been rescued from the sands of
Central Asia
It Is possible that by means of these
five leaves an Important literary lan
guage of whose existence the world
had no suspicion may be rescued from
oblivion. Tho paging on the reverse
side of each leaf shows that they
once formed a part of an extensive
work.
Moving to Pendleton.
Will Harris, a prominent stock buy
er of Portland, is moving his family,
consisting of a wife and two daugh
ters, to Pendleton to live. They have
taken up their residence in the
Daughtrey house on Lewis street.

Improving the government of the cit
ies on the Pacific coast and, as all
the important subjects in connection
with the administration of city gov
ernment are to be discussed. Mayor

meeting. The matter will be definite
ly decided at a future meeting.

Cleveland, Ohio, was last night award
ed the contract for supplying the city

dangerous condition. The property
owners will be formally notified to
rebuild the walks and In case they
fall to do so, the city will .build it
and take a lien on the property.
