Tb board of fire underwriters of

tion will be a reduction "of premiums
and a general readjustment of rates.
The idea is advanced that premiums
may be lessened by remedying matters
of bazzard, and - certain precautions
taken by householders may lead to a
promised decrease In the premiums

First Day of Hchool.
As bad been expected, The Dalles
public schools opened Monday with-a
fuller attendance than ever before.
The enrollment was 611 as compared
with an enrollment of 575 on the first
day of school last year, a gain of 36.
Teachers and students evidently
have improved the time during
their vacation, as all entered the
school rooms bright and cheerful,
ready to take up the work of another
year with energy' and a determination
to make this a most successful year In
6chool work. With 611 enrolled on
the first day, It is expected that the at

expiration of the first quarter. Shou)
this expectation be realized, the pre.
ent school rooms will be inadequate to
mast the requirements, and the com
pletion of tbaooDtemplated new school
building will be fouad a necessity.

TWO CONFLICTING STATEMENTS.
Were the Authorities Justified In I'slnr
force at Latimer?
The first reports published of tbe
unfortunate occurrence at Latimer,
Pa., on the 10h, indicated that the
deputy sheriffs were justified in firing
upon the marching strikers. Sheriff
Martin made a statement that he was
assaulted by the leader of the moo.and
ordered bis deputies to fire only when
it was necessary. In speaking of the
occiiFf en.e Jie said: '
i'his is an unfortunate affair, but I
think 99 men out of 100 wpulj .bave
done just as I did. Now that the crisis
has been reached, I don't propose to
shirk my duly. Some say my action
was premature. I bad been parleying
with the mob for four days. They
were gradually getting the 'ftest of the
situation and I think In 24 bouFS more
things would have been worse."
As the matter is more fully invest!
gated it appeaf s that f be officers acted
hastily, to say the least, and .here are
some indications that tlfo strikers ytp.e
led Into a trap, and were murdered.
Dr. Lewandowfrky, representing; the
Po'iish spcieiies pf New York, is at

holes iu it. In an insidei porket was
found a cheat 32-coliber Imlldog re

riot, because the chambers" contained
neither empty nor loaded shells, and
it could not have been fi -ed before the
owner was shot, because lie would have
had no timo to unload it. It is es
tablished that this is the only weapon
found in the. who'e mob of miners, and
indicates that the first shot could not
have been fired from thir side. There
were three companies of deputies, and
one of these was made up of men who
had served as mine police in the past
and had much trouble with the strik

said to be in a revengeful mood against
them.

An Enjoyable Experience.
The following is an extract from a
pamphlet gotten up by the Pennsyl
vania C. E., describing their itinerary,
and it is interesting to note what they
say of the irrepressible Capt. Waud.
"A trip up the Columbia river was
on the program for Monday, and by
9 o'clock we had embarked on the
Steamer Regulator. Orrin S. Waud.
captain, is as good natured and accomo
dating a man as even sailed a beat.
The Northeastern Pennsylvania ladies
seemed to have captured the captain's
i heart or mavbe it was bis ordinary
every day good nature which prompted
; him to turn his private cabin over to
! the party for their exclusive use on
I this trip, with all its pharaphenalia
a kindness that was doubly acceptable
owing to the crowded condition of the
vessel. The ride occupied a greater
portion of tbe day. At the junction tf
the rivers stands a small light house,
the establishment of which was gravely
reported by our genial captain as due
to an accident wl.ich had occurred at
this point. Eagerness was depicted
on the faces, of all in the party, and
our excursion manager the one from
Pittsburg, be it known to all could
not resist asking for details. He then
learned that it was here that tbe Will
amette ran into tbe Columbia, where
upon the excursion manager at once
made it his business to see that his
friends were made acquainted with tbe
direful calamity. , The captain was
very careful to comolete bis story and
to remark that the damage was Blight
and nobody was hurt."

available, and tbe officers of the assoc

out the district are more than anxious
to make exhibits of their various pro.
ducts, and there is every lodicatio
that tbe pavillion will present a better
exhibit this season than ' ever before.
As the state -appropriation is available
only for premiums, it will be necessary
in order to have a racing season con

shall hang liberal purses for trials
speed. It is hoped that $1200 can be
raised for this purpose, as in this case
the association can hang from $1500 to
$1800 in purses, which would attract
tract large numbers of the best horses
on the coast to compete for the purses.

C'I.ASSIr'IKI ASHKletJlltSTH.
The Mow IMan Adopled by he A. I
W. and How It Work.
At the last session of the grand
lodge. A.O. L'. W., there was adopted
what is kuov.-n as the classified assess
ment plan, dividing the membership
into-groups or classes of live years
each and charging each class the mor
talitv rates of its class, bistd upon the
American expectancy tables. The
membership advancing from one class
to the other until they reach their
fiftieth birthday when the rate remains
level thereafter, giving protection at
current cost. The Oregon grand lod
also provided for reducing the number
of assessments uoon members over
fifiy years of age who have bten con
tinuousiy in the order for twenty
yeara thereby reducing the cost to the
old man when his earning power de
creases. This plan was evolved after
much thought, covering; months of
careful deliberation by some of the
brightest minds in the Uoited States
There were fiftv-four deaths in
Oregon last year, calling, for $108,000,
Had the classified plan been in force
seven assessments would I axe pro.
duced $109,960, which would Lave paid
the deaths end left over $1,600 In the
treasury. The cost per thousand dol
lars would have been as follows:
Ages 18 to 24 $ 4 20 per annum
" 25 ' 2't 4 55 " " "
" 30 " 34 5 04 "
35 ' 3!) 5 81 " "
" 40 " 44 7 07 "'
" 45 " 49 9 17 " "
" 50 and over, 12 4 " "
And this after the Oregon grand
lodge has been doing business for
nearly twenty years, which speaks
volume? for tbe care that has been ex
ercised in the risks that have been
taken. Under the new plan a renewal
of interest can be seen iu tie lodges
and at Tillamook where the grand
lecturer of the order has just visited,
fifteen new applications were received,
ages ranging from 19 to 43 years.
This plan is a radical departure from
the beaten paths of co-operati ve organ i
zations, and the result will be watched
with interest by all. Fourteen grand
jurisdictions have already adopted
this plan and the results are eminently
satisfactory, California initiating over
4,000 men in the last year, the average
age of which was 29 years, and New
York running into the thousands with
an average ase of 28 years. The A. O.
LVW. has the largest membership of
any secret society in Oregon and we
will endeavor to give our readers tbe
result of the change from time to time
as tbe work goes on.
COMPLIMENTARY TO THE DALLES
A Railroad Man Gives Oar City m Good
finaie.
General Agent Wm. Harder, of the
Great Northern, was in Portland lust
Saturday after a visit to the Inland
Empire, and in speaking of his trip to
an Oregonian reporter, pas-ed some
very happy compliments upon Tbe
Dalles. Among other things he said:
"At The Dalles everything Is hum
ming, all the merchants are busy ship
ping goods in all directions by team
into the interior. Farmers and ranch
ers are pouring into the place with
wheat, which they readily dispose of
at 80 cents a bushel. Wool shipment
have b33n. going East for . several
weeks, all the buyers having purchased
their quota and left for home. W. E.
Jones, partner of the firm of Hollowell
&Donall, in B3ston, is tho largest
shipper, and Is still grading and baling,
his output amounting to over 2,000,000
pounds, he expects to finish iu about
10 days.
"Tbe D-ilies Commis-ion Company
bas shippeu a large quantity of green
fruit, which has realized good prices
in the East. Considerable cattle and
sheep traffic has been going on all
summer, but during the next' two
months ranchers and stockmen expect
to make very heavy fall shipments to
Kansas City and Chicago. Portland
and tbe sound cities also draw their
supplies of cattle and sheep from this
section. Hogs are very sc.trce in Ore
gon and Washington. Prices of all
kinds of livestock have advanced in
sympathy with all other commodities,
and stockraisers feel very comfortable
over tbe prices tbey now realize as
compared with those of a year ago.
"Fall salmon-picking has also begun
at The Dalles. Mr. F. A. Seufert
started bis fish wheels on tbe morning
of the 10th, and in Jess than 24 hours
he had secured over 30 tons of silver-
side salmon. He reports the Columbia
teeming with nsh. and expects to put
up many thousand cases.
'The Dalles is a smart city, being
the distributing point for a vast terri
tory in all directions. Its merchants
are a live and progressive lot of men,
fully determined to make their city an
important commercial certer, and with
every indication of success."

Two San Francisco grocers Ring Bros, and T. Salomon
won $100.00 each because they sent the most yellow tickets
before June 15th.
But grocers and clerks can get more tickets than other
consumers; so we also paid $10000 each to the two persons
named below:
Mrs. Wm. Funk, Winnemueca, Nevada, 132 tickets.
Mrs. L. During, 819 Bryant Street, San Francisco, 72 tickets.
Mrs. During got a number of friends in San Francisco
and near by (one keeps a boarding house) to give her their
tickets; and she used the tea herself.
By the way, she uses Schilling 's Best baking powder and
extracts too bad she doesn't know how good Schillings Best
spices are! But she says the extracts and baking powder
are wonderful.
A woman in Stockton, who keeps a restaurant, came very
near getting a prize. She deserves one for supplying her
customers such good tea.
Better read our advertisements every day some contain
suggestions how to win the prize.
By the way, grocers can't compete for the two $150.00 prizes oflered for tha
most yellow tickets in one envelope between June 15th ad August 31st. They
can, however, compete for the fioo.oo prize. B4
