Hermiston Again Curries Off High
Honors by Graduating 100 Per
Cent of Students Entered and One
Pupil Making Highest Average.
Eighth grade students over the
county have retrieved their lost hon
ors and demonstrated their ability
to "come back." The examining
board has just completed the task ef
grading the papers of the regular
June examinations and it is discov
ered that 44 out of the 55 examined
have made grades entitling them to
be graduated. This is a much larger
percentage than passed at the April
examinations, scarcely a third at that
time being numbered among the for
tunate. A considerable number of
the present graduate, however, are
among those who failed in April and
many were only required to tak the
one or two subjects in which they
"flunked" before.
Hermiston", again carries off high
honort Besides graduating 100 per
cent of the students entered, one cf
that number, Matilda Callbeck had

XEZ PERCE COUNTY
SEAT GROWS FAST
it --
Xei Perce, Idaho, June 13. The re
port recently issued by the govern-;
ment census bureau, based on the
enumeration last year, shows that no
portion of north Idaho has developed
so rapidly and increased in - popula
tion to such an extent in the last de
cade as the territory tributary to Nez
Perce, and the Indications are that
the next 10 years will w411 show even
a more remarkable increase.
"I never witnessed such remarkable
development in the west," said Dis
trict Judge Edgar Steele, who closed
the first term of court in Lewis coun
ty yesterday, "as Nez Perce and the
surrounding country. I first visited
the town in 1898, Just after the res
ervation had been thrown open, hav
ing stopped over night here while
en route from Moscow to Mount Ida
ho, then the county seat of Idaho
county, to open court. There were
then but three or four buildings in
the place, and the surrounding dis
trict, now one of the most fertile a:,
prosperous farming regions I ever
saw, was inhabited almost entirely
by Indians and squaw men, but few
settlers having then begun to locate
on the farms tht-y sad secured when
the reserve was thrown open.
"My next visit was in 1902, and
while the rural population had largely
increased and the raw prairie had
been controverted into a productive
agricultural area, the town had ad
vanced but little, owing chiefly to its
being away, from the railroad",, Ihe
nearest transportation point being
Kamiah, on the Clearwater branch of
the Northern Pacific, which had but
mainly been put fn operation, and
the total population would probably
not exceed 3U0 people.
"Having this picture Of the town
in my mind I was not prepared for
the scene which was presented -when
I arrived here Sunday over the Nez
Perce & Idahq railway. which,
through the efforts f Z. A. Jehnson
and the tnri-geti supporters e-f the
enterprise aramg the people of Nez
Perce prairie, now affords rail com
munication with the Outside world.
"Instead of the crossroads trading
point I remembered, I found a thriv
ing, modern tovn, with well graded,
well lighted streets, substantial busi
ness blocks tind attractive homes."
Many Couches on No, 6.
When No. 6 pulled in from Port
land this morning, there were seven
teen coaches attached and the train
was being pulled by two engines. The
cause of the extra cars and engine is
the heavy exodus from Portland fol
lowing the conclusion of the Rose
Festival.

WALLA WALLA MAYOR
Winning over V. II. Rogers by a
majority of 265 votes, T." C. EUiott
was yesterday, given the republican
nomination for mayor in the city
election to' be held July 10, says th
Walla Walla Union. The defeat was
decisive. .
But it was not as crushing as the
one administered to W. S. Canton
wine, who aspired to succeed Chief
of Police Davis. Chief Davis snowed
his opponent under with an avalanche
of votes, winning 1619 to 840.
There was about a two-thirds vote
cast in the primaries for of the 3S12
voters registered, but 2596 went to
the polls yesterday. Of these 93 were
demoeras and 2503 repulicans.
Opponents of commission govern-,
ment claim the vote was an index to
the feeling on commission govern
ment; and that 'the nomination of T.
C. Elliott 'was given with a majority
that practically represents the stand
of the. citizens in this matter. Sup
porters of the movement allege that
this in Indicates nothing, that, the
fight yesterday was made along en
tlrely different llB.es.
Hot weather during the day, and
thunderstorms during the evening
were partially responsible for the light
vote cast, although there seemed to
be little Interest taken In the voting.
At no time was the voting lively; and
the crowds down town went home
early, the nomination of Mr. Elliot
and Chief Davis being assured by
o'clock.
Other raoea were close, however,
and particular interest centered In
the councilmanic fights. In the first
ward. John D. Ankeny overwhelmed
A. W. Eiler, 489 to 250. The demo-
carts nominated C, J. Bowers.

CAPTURE OF SLAYER
(Continued from page one.)
Physicians who have examined him
say there is no physical reason why
he should not speak.
The man Is evidently demented. He
was wearing two suits of clothes
when arrested, Is about 35 years old,
short but powerfully built, with enor
mously large hands. None of his
clothing showed any blood stnlns and
Is he Is the murderer, this fact Is the
hardest thing about him to explain.
It is not believed possible anyone
could have murdered the four mem
bers of the Hill family In the way
they were killed without covering'
hltffcelf almost from head to foot with
blood. .r "T"'
' Now Clue Found.
The Hillsboro suspect seems to have
no connection with the case whatever
and will probably be placed In some
institution for the Insane without fur
ther Investigation concerning the mur
der of the Hills. -
The burglary of a house near Os
wego, on the bank of the Willamett
river, between S and 10:30 o'clock
Saturday evening caused some ex
citement In Oregon City, where it w as
thought the burglar might have been
the Hill murderer.
The house is that of Edward Kuls
enga, and it is a little north of the
road bridge and beyond the town of
Oswego. The fact that the burglar
used an ax to pry open the window
and took food and a savings bank
with about $5 or $6 In it, leaving all
clothing except two pairs of tan shoes,
and a suitcase, untouched, made the
Clackamas county officials think per-haps-the
Hill murderer was trying to
escape down the river In a boat.
It Is estimated that no less tharr
250,000 electric fiatirons were sold In
the .United Staj.es and Canada last
year.
