KirKpatrirk of I'lfc county has promised to oflojierate with the Marion county court and the ritv of Salem in maintaining a free ferrv across the rivr. This promise was made to a committee apioiuted by President Alliert of the Commercial Club consisting of Fred W. Steusloff. Dhu J. Fry and F. G. Deckehach. The committee accompanied by M. I Meyers and James L. I. inn went over the proposition with Judge Kirk pat rick yesterday. The judge's recep tion of the committee was in the most friendly spirit. The committee CBVe the assurance that the city of. Salem and .Marion county would pay tnree fourths of the expense of maintaining a free ferry. With the two counties cooperating and with the promise given yesterday bv Mayor Keyee that tae city would be" more than glad to pay a share of the expense, there is every assurance that within a short time a free ferry will be established. The Polk county court has been vtryj prompt in building the roadwav and ap proach for the landing on the west side. In fact, it has been ready for several days. It is probable that ararngeaients can be made to lease a ferry ror a given amount and this will be decided within a day or so. The committee appointed by President Albert was busy yester day working out details and was in ses sion this afternoon. While it is probable that the ferry proposition will be brought before the council Monday evening, the city of ficials through Mayor Keyes have al ready given assurance that the city will pay a proportion of the cost and that within a week or more a free fer ry will be a reality and not a dream. Gold Medals Awarded In High School Contest Tine? gold medals were won by "stu dents of the Salem high school type writing department today. The medals were won by Blanche E. Applcgate, Mayme Ifoinyer, and Opal George, for meeting the requirements in type writing on a Remington machine. The test was conducted by Mr. Goldthwaite, Remington manager for the Oregon dis trict, and the medal given is valued at $10. The typewriting department is under the direction of Miss Gertrude Walling. In order to earn a medal the young ladies were required to write new mat ter tor ten continuous minutes at a rate of not leas than 55 words a min uto with five or less errors. Miss Ap plegate wrote a total of 635 words and made four errors. For each error five points were deducted, which gave her a net number of 615 or a percentage of 61.5. Miss ITomver wrote a total of 649 words in ten minutes and made four errors which gavjc her a net number of 629 woftls, or a percentage of 02.9 per cent. Miss George wrote 646 words, made four errors, and got a net result of 020 words, with a percentage of 62.6. It is probable that these gold medal tests will be given each month. The medals are sent out by the Remington company. 10 STATE FMEMIUIViS Expected $28,500 Will Be Voted for This at Tomor row's Meeting It is probable that at the meeting of the state fair board tomorrow at the state house that the sum of $28,- 500 will be voted for the payment of premiums at the Oregon State Fair of 1917. Should this sum be voted it would be the largest ever appropriated for like purposes west ot tne Mississippi river, according to a statement of A. H. Lea, secretary of the board, this morning. Heretofore, the largest sum appropriated for premiums has been $26,800, which was distributed last year. . Altogether, the operating expenses of the state fair amounts to about $50, 000 each year. To meet thiB sum the legislature allows the fair board the sum of $17,500 for premiums. The defi cit in the premium list and the general operating expenses must be made up from admissions and concessions- The board did not get any of the buildings asked for jCrom the legislature , and but a small amount for improvements. Secretary Lea is beginning to wonder where ail the money is going to -come from to conduct the fair this fall. On account of the legislature cut ting out the appropriation for the coli- seum, it is probable there will Be no horse show this season. The secretary said that horsemen were demanding higher premiums and new sets of pre miums are required in Hues not hereto- CABLE IS CUT Buenos Aires, Mar. 10 Cable coinniunicutiou to London via the Azores was suddenly cut off early today.

TRY JOURNAL WANT ADS MAY MAKE CHANGE IN TlfiEJlF PAYMENTS Desert Land Board May Ex tend The Oyer Period of 20 Years Change in the lime of pnymeuts on the land nold by the hoard were made by the last legislature, extending the time from ten to twenty year, and in the future contract to 1 made the state desert land board authorized the addition of the cliRnge in wording to the printed contracts. With this method of payment iu operation the state has one of the most favorable land contracts in this business. The contract calls for the payment of one-twentieth down and one twentieth a year until paid. The in terest is at 5 per cent and begins to run at the date of the contiact. The state's lien against the land is for the price of ronstrui-tion, or the price of the irrigable per acre, or $40. For the non-irrigable land the price is $2.50 per acre. The land comes from the United States government through the state to the settler and forty acres is the minimum that can be taken up and 160 the maximum. Every citizen, male or female, over the age of 21 years has a Carey Act right to take up land in addition to the desert land and home- steal right. I SAYS HIS ATTORNEY ' KNEV ABOUT DEALS Testimony p f Biilingsley Shows Attorney Was Really Party to Acts Seattle, Wash., March 16. Dr. Mark A. Matthews, former moderator of the Presbyterian church, was scheduled to take the stand today as a witness for the government in the booze graft con spiracy trial against Mayor Gill, Chief of Polieio die,ckingham, ex-Sheriff Hodgo and City Detectives Peyser, Poolman, McLennan and Doom. United States Attorney Clarence L. Realties has announced the government will probably close its case today. Dr. Matthews will be one of the last of the government witnesses. Logart Biilingsley, director of the giant bootlegging syndicate, had testi fied he gave Dr. Matthews $1000 to use in obtaining evidence "to help clean up the town" and obtain statistics on the amount of gambling and immorali ty that was existing under Mayor Gill. George Vanderveer, erstwhile attor ney for the Biilingsley" brothers was dragged farther into tne mire ot tne case and M. W, Palmer, Chief Beck- ingham s chauffeur, gave testimony contradictory to that of other govern ment witnesses at the booze-graft trial this morning. Testimony further involving Vander veer brought on another bitter fight between attorneys. "Vanderveer advised Logan and me to go to British Columbia where he said friends of his who had won out at the last election would give us full pro tection," Fred Biilingsley had testi fied in response to a question from Wilmon Tucker, one of Mayor Gill's attorneys as to whether he had ever told Vanderveer that Logan never paid the mayor $4000. "Did your attorney, George Vander veer know about the details of your crimes as they were being committed?' asked Assistant Attorney General Reams on re-direct examination. "Yes," said Fred, "he knew all the details of our business, even look ed over our secret hiding places for liquor." Fred volunteered the statement that he would have seen Vanderveer and his brother Logan Christmas eve when Logan had been allowed his freedom by Sheriff Hodge, "if Vanderveer hadn 't been drunk. ' ' "Would you be willing for Vander veer to come here and tell all he knows?" demanded Tucker. "Yes. I would," replied the witness. "Logan wants to protect him but I don't, lie can tell everything so far as I am concerned, and if he does he'll, be indicted for he's ,iust as guilty as the other defendants." Fred also testitied that he told Clnet Beekineham of bis plans to steal the Tim Vogel car of liquor that Hortge had stored in W. H. Pielow's ware house and said the chief told him to make quick work of it and not let Hodge know that Beckingliam knew about it. fore considered that it is a regular Chi nese puzzle to figure out where the money is coming from to do all these things and please the people. Tomorrow morning the board will go over the fair grounds and in the af ternoon hold its session at the slate house. $7.00 PLAYS ANY RECORD 'J. .r..U I I 1 1 JJ.

Ex-Manager Ray C. Baker represent ed Salem on behalf of Manager Otto Klett who was unable to be present. Kast Side and West Side 1'ortland teams and Salem still own franchises in the league and temporary franchis es were voted to McMjnnville, Wood- petition for the season of 1SI17, in class burn and Hillsboro.

A commit- tee was appointed to look after the j matter and as soon as the leagno is in-1 tact another meeting will be called and steps taken for permanent organiza-; tlon. The matter of applying for class D" rating from the National Base- ball association was not gone into on account or me iact mat mis racing re quires a 90 game schedule and a salary limit of $300 which would be out of the question. Jt was "Ppted to allow the visiting team a guarantee of $40 instead of playing on a percentage basis of 40 per cent to the loser and $00 per cent to the winner with expenses guaran teed as last vear. It was also voted to raise the en trance fee from $75 to $100 so that teams would not be so hasty in throw ing up their franchise and disrupting the league in mid season. The league will probably open on April 8th and close on August 19th. This will make the Beason twenty weeks long and with extra games on the Fourth of July and Memorial day will make the schedule about twenty three games. The salary question which always disrupts more semi-pro clubs than any other one thing was talked over very thoroughly. It was the cause oi all the trouble last season and steps will be taken at next meetinff to avoid as much bf this trouble as possible.
