trade was held last week ln New Zea
land to discuss the question of the
Importaticn of Oregon pine. The
press was excluded, but several of
the delegates asserted after the con
ference that owing to recent whole
sale Importation of pine fully 50 saw

Governor Chamberlain has Issued

California for the extradition of

for the construction of the state high
way via Crater Lake, at any time
the additional funds necessary to

toria for operating a purse seine in
the Columbia river. The defendant
held a license for his seine from the
Btate of ' Washington, which has a
special aw which provides for licens
ing them.
All business organizations of Baker
City have united on a plan of action
to secure the branch Insane asylum
which It is proposed shall be located
In Eastern Oregon. Letters have
been mailed to every senator and rep
resentative in the legislature setting
forth many reasons why Baker City

A great deal of Importance Is at
tached to the proposition of the Ore

The Girls' Collegiate Debating
League of Oregon, the first organiza
tion ever formed in the state for ex
clusive contests among the co-eds,
was organized ln Albany Saturday af
ternoon. The following officers were
chosen: Rhoda Stalmaker, of Albany
College, president; Beulah Spauld

Jennie Tlllbury, of McMlnnvllle Col

Frank Jennings, alleged to have
been working the "green goods"
game on a number of people ln
Southern Oregon, has been arrested
and locked up at Grants Pass upon
advice of the United States marshal.
Jennings has been representing him
self as a deputy United States mar
shal. Jennings was at one time a
pal of Bertha Etta Gordon, who was
murdered by a bartender at Marsh
field last Summer. At the time of
the killing it was rumored that she
was mixed up with a counterfeiting
gang to which Jennings also be
longed. Probably the most important piece
of legislation before the next legisla
ture, so far as the motorist Is con
cerned, will be the attempt that will
be made to have all vehicles using
the roads at night carry lights. The
fight will be made for this law by
the owner of the automobile, not so
much for his personal safety as for
the safety of the public. In every
state in the Union there is at the
present time a law requiring the mo
torist to carry lights, both in front
and in the rear of his machine, but
in few places Is there any restric
tion on the other users of the public
highways.

Oregon for equipping troops during
the Civil War.
Grants Pass will soon have a com
peting telephone system, a new com
pany having Incorporated with a cap
ital of $30,000. It will ask for a
franchise from the city and county
for an up-to-date telephone system.
The First Presbyterian Church of
Corvallls have decided to erect a new
edifice to cost from $20,000 to $25,
000. The church building now used
by the Presbyterian church was built
ln 1856.
Improvements of a public nature,
including new residences, water
works and sidewalks ln La Grande
for 1908 came close to the $1,000,
000 mark. The coming year will see
an expenditure of $400,000 for Irri
gation alone. ,

reer of highway robbery, Al Miller

Roseburg will pay the heaviest
tax in Its history for 1909. This will

sence of the saloons, which have

the reasons for the heavy city ta,x.

at Scio, Linn county, has been un

printer, is in the Linn county Jail
