NEW NORM AL R EG EN TS.
Affil-
Men Placed on Board Have No
iation With State School*.
Salem—Governor Chamberlain has
named the members c f the new board
of regents who will have control o f all
state normal schools. <The regents are
C. E. Spence, of Car us, Clackamas
county, to serve one year: E. Hofer, of
Salem, two years; E. FT. Bragg, of La
Grande, three vears; W . B. Ayer, of
Portland, Four years; Henry J. M aier,
of The Dalles, five years; Stephen Jew
ell, of Grants Pass, six years.
Not one of these men live in a normal
school town, or lias any connection w ith
a normal school. It is evident that in
making the appointments the governor
studiously avoided appointing men who
might by past associations, geographical
location oi political interests, be pre
judiced lor or against any one oi the
lour normals. Not one o i tlie men is
interested particularly in either the
Unitersity of Oregon, tlie Agricultural
college, or any other etate institution.
This fact w ill leave them more free to
handle the normal school problem free
from other influence.
Spence is a farmer, a Democrat and a
member of the executive com mittee of
the State Grange.
Hofer is editor of the Capital Journal
and a Republican.
Bragg is county superintendent of
Union county and a Democrat.
A yer is a lumber manufacturer and a
Republican.
.Maier is a'm erchant and a Democrat.
Jewell is county judge of Josephine
county and a Democrat.
The state-board of education, com
posed of the governor, secretary of state
and superintendent of public instruc
tion, are ex-oflicio members of the
board of regents.
Am ong educational workers in attend
ance at the session of the State Teach
ers’ association, it waB generally re
marked tliat the governor has selected
a strong board that w ill be free to man
age tlie normal schools with a view to
the best interests of the state.
Albany— That net more than 5 per
cent of the sportsmen of Oregon know
that the open season for deer begins
this year July 15, is tlie opinion of
local hunter. The fact that the last
legislature changed the deer season has
not become known at all in this part of
the etate and men who always begin
deer hunting as soon as the season opens
are making no plans to go into the
mountains until next month.
According to the new law, tlie open
season ior buck deer is from July 15 to
November 1.
It was formerly from
August 15 to November 1. The season
for female deer remains tiie same under
the new law as it was under the old
from September 1 to November 1
’rtieee changes in the deer season are
embixlied in house b ill 151, which is
recorded on page 341 of the 1907 seg
sion lawe.
Another change in the deer law is
that it is now a misdemeanor to k ill
dogs chasing deer.
It was form erly
illegal to hunt deer with dogs and that
provision is also contained in the new
law. Under the old law many dogs
caught chasing deer were shot and
killed and the new provision was in-
serte»l in order to protect owners of val
uable dogs, which would break loose
and chase deer without tlie knowledge
of their owners.

Rockefeller S o L o n g O u t of Business
H e K n o w s Little Ab ou t It.
Chicago, July 8.— John D. R ockefel
ler, president of the Standard O il com
pany, of New Jersey, occupied the wit-
ness stand in the United States District
court Saturday, w h ile Judge Landis
plied him w ith questions regarding the
financial strength and the business
methods of the corporation of which he
is the head.
M r. Rockefeller was a vety w illin g
and an unsatisfactory wituees. H e was
ready to te ll all that he knew, but he
said that he knew practically nothing.
The net result o f his examination was
that he believed during the years 1903,
1904 and 1905, the peiiod covered by
the indictments on which the Standard
O il company of Indiana was recently
convicted, the net profits of tlie Stand
ard O il company of N ew Jersey were
approxim ately 40 per cent on an out
standing capitalization of $100,000,000.
T lie investigation by Judge Landis
was instituted by him for the express
purpose of determ ining whether or not
the Standard O il company of Indiuna,
which waa convicted of violation of the
law, was really owned by the Standard
O il company of New Jersey, w hether
the Union Tank L in e company, whose
cars were used for the shipmenis. mude
in violation of law, were sim ilarly ow n
ed, and also to obtain an idea of the fi
nancial resources of the convicted cor
poration in order to inflict a fine pro
portionate to the offense and the assets
of the convicted company.
I t was stated by otficeis of the Stand
ard O il company ol New Jersey that it
owned the greater part of the stock of
both the Union Tank L ine company
and Standard O il company of Indiana.
Specific figures as to the earnings of the
parent corporation were
given
by
Charles M . Pratt, its secretary, and
they were close to the estimate given
by M r. Rockefeller.

of the workmen engaged on the plant
have been rather mysterious and em

months or more did not know what
they were working at or for whom.

Weston — The proprietors o f the
Westn brickyard have purchased of
James D. Gish his addition to Weston,
consisting of nearly 10 acres in the low

demonstrated that the soil was well
