Immediately after arrival the company piled out of the train, began to unload their camp equip ment and baggage onto trucks, after which they marched awuy to their (luurters at the armory and wero dismissed.

It Is under stood that these eots will be used for s lee il ilk purposes at the arm ory during the Legion convention by the various visiting drum corps. I'nder tho caplhiii. "Pro fan It v in tho Classroom." the 1'ortluiui oreg.miau today prints the fol lowing editorial, which will be of interest to local mining men, iuifsmuth as It was tho report of tho parly most eomerned that .deflated the great Jackson county tin boom of Ht2? : Public opinion wilt uphold the action taken by the ro . gents of Oregon Agricultural college in asking for the res ignation of the dean of mines of that Institution, in view of the facts as given out offi cially, co ii tied with other In formation that has been made public. i Protest against the regents' ; decision was made by tho Kastern Oregon Mining asso ciation, which cited as tho grounds for the dean's dis I misKiil his "exposure" of so called tin and platinum dis coveries in southern Oregon and his use of profanity in the classroom. The associa tion urged an investigation of the charges. J. K. Weatherford, presi dent of the board of regents, declares that tho controversy over southern Oregon miner als did not enter into the sit' nation, but that tho hoard acted "solely on the busts of personal and administrative conduct on the campus, which tho board deemed incompat ible with the high standard insisted upon at this Inst it u linn." No denial Is made that tlTo 'use of profanity In the class room was alleged, and Mi. WVatherford says that there was a detailed hearing of tho accusations. From unofficial but reliable sources it is known that the retiring head of the school of mines was charged with using extremely violent and blasphemous lan guage before his students, in- eluding groups of freshman boys. The vote to oust him was unanimous. Io tho mining Interests which have come to tho de fense in this case intimate that such conduct should bo condoned? More latitude is allowed these days than for merly in methods of teachnig and of scientific Investigation, but academic freedom cer tainly does not extend to per sonal conduct that violates the proprieties. Our colleges, public or private, are not .the place to introduce barroom standards of expression. 4 ss iik. i i i a, i r ii - R; R.

Inc., for a railroad right of way over a tract east, of Hear i creek, designated by tho county court as a county road, yielded a crop of conjectures, locally. The j county court denied the applica tion, with tho proviso that If any thing more definite was produced favorable action would bo granted. Commissioner' Victor liurs e I I said this morning: "I told Mr. Crouch, that If he , would get the backing of the Mcd I ford and Ashland chambers of commerce, and show ho had sub tuntial hacking, that the county cturt would go further than half way." Commissioner Jtursell also said that about a year ago un applica tion wus made for tho right-of-way "by two other parties." who said they would file formally If "they ! Interested the partlctt they thought i they could. Nothing ever came of this. j Mr. Crouch In his application jgnvc no hint of his financial back ing, or if ho was representing in terests other than his own com pany. The county road right-of-way extends from Agate to Kant Jack son street. According to Mr. Hur sell, a survey has been made from Agate up Antolopo creek for about ten miks into the mine and timber holdings of the Pacific Shnlerles. The stakes have been driven. "I also understand," mild Mr. Iturm-ll, "that there Is n low divide between this section of tho coun try and the Klamath country. A road could bo built to tho Weyer haf user holdings without serious engineering problems, I am In formed." It has been known locally for -some time, there was considerable nil! maneuvering going on In southern Oregon, one . outstanding Incident being the granting by the Grants Pass city council gC an option for (10 days to Jr. J.
