APPOINTMENT.
Prof. Robb, formerly of this place, has
been appointed to a place in the State
Reform School, ami the Capital Journal
remarks as follows:
“With the installation of Prof Robb
as principal of the State Reform school,
probadly all efforts at changes in the
management of the head of the institu
tion will cease. The whirligig of poli
tics brings men around together in a
funny way

Irwin and his man Robb, when they
were in charge of the Chemawa Indian
school, the editor of the Statesman little

,*Bob is very glad to have Robb where
he is because Mr. Irwin really wanted
him to have the first place but couldn’t

compromised on the next best thing for
his friend Robb* The hitter gentleman
made an excellent disciplinarian over
Indian hoys and will bo able to handle
American boys, who have a little of the
Indian in their make up, equally well.
“Bob’’ Hendricks learned his trade as
printer on the old Eugene State Journal
when he and Kincaid used to set all the

Kincaid is secretary of state he has a
little of the milk of human kindness in
him and does not like to semi his for

“Bob” Hend

trump card in the game of politics at

no one has a trump over his. The ap

and Boh is there like the rest of the
hoys entirely on his good behavior.”
The following items were clipped from

The allusion last month in the Puget
Sound Lumberman to a cedar stump
near Elma that measures 15 feet in di
ameter recalls the fact that a hollow ce
llar tree near Kumas lake, northwest of
Seattle, is 23 feet in the clear on the
ground and 15 feet in diameter 20 feet
above the ground
It is said that one
of the largest cedars known in Wash

abreast three feet apart and thirty men
standing on it. ('an anyone heat tins
