LONGS NORMAL SCHOOL BILL.
1t Causes a Split In the Lewis County
Delegation.

The Lewis county delegation here Il
split up, and the whole county is In q
mighty fever over Senator Longs bill
establishing a state normal school al
Chehalis. MIR, Lohs lives in Chehalis,
and wants the school located there.
Representative Hcrren lives at Win
lock, and Representative Gilchrlst' at
cen,ralia. They are in favor Of leavlnp q
the question of the location of the schc ol
to vote OF the people, or to the county
commissioners, instead of having the
legislature select the site.
Mr.. Long claims that the Representa-
tives are not sincere in the stand they
are taking. and wnntto secure the school
for centraiia. This the representatives
deny.
This fact, together with the intense
rivalry between CcntrnIia and Chchalis
has brought about the present unpleas-
ant state OF affairs. Saturday might u
mass meeting ot citizens was held at
Chehalis. Senator Long and Represen-
tatiyes Herren and Gilchrist were pres
cnt.
Both of the representatives made
speeches, saying that they were ready
and willing to do anything for Lewis
county, but thought, in all fairness, that
the people of the county should have
something TO say as to where the school
should be located
senator Long followed IN bitter
speech, In which he charged that Mcssrs.
Herron and Gilchrist wanted to give the
school TO Centralia for no other purpose
than to boom IL.
Nlcssrs. Hcrren and Gilchrist finally
left the stage in disgust. MIR. Ilerren
was very angry, and after the meeting
he went UP to Mr.. Long, and said :
Henry Long, you are q Cd d--n liar,
and you know IT,"
Mr.. Long did not reply. During his
speech Senator Long said that Repre-
sentative Luli, OF cleallum, had pledged
himself TO support his U.ong's) bill.
Mr.. Lull was present ami interrupted
Sir. Longs speech and denied that he
had pledged lIis support to the bill r.
Representatives Gllchrist and Herren
say that they were grossly insulted at
the meeting and are highly incenscd at
the way they were treated. Mayor
Barry. of Chehnlis. who Is here regrets
tho way the meeting turned ont.
Mir. Gilchrist charges thnt Senator
Long has acted in bad faith. lie says
that Mr.. Long told him that he was sat
isiied To- have the bill amended 20 as to
leave the question to the people.
AT u meeting of the educntion com
mittee the ether night MIR. Gilchrst in
terrupted MI Longs speech and asked
him II he had made such an agreement.
MIR. long ans wered In the afli rmntivo.
but added that he had seen his constitu-
ents and had changed his mind.
The house educational committee met
Tonight and decided to report iayora-
bly, upon Mr.. Longs bill.

able excitement has been visible during the
past week over the discovery Of tin ore at
Riverside, twenty-five miles from Bohemian.
The Park brothers who are mining in that
vicinity recently procured a sample of tin
ore from Cornwall. England. They at once
saw that large bodies of similar ore existed
In their neighborhood. sample was &C.
lected and sent to Lenhen, of st. Paul, who
pronounced it fine sample Of tin ore, bear
ing over II per cent. Of mineral. At the
same time letter was received from a we'll
known gentleman of st. Paul stating that
he could raise a company to take hold Of
the property. if it was desired.
This news had the effect of sending a lot
of prospectors to the new find and at this
writing over forty claims have been staked
out. Samples have been submitted to Prof.
Riotte, of New York, who is now at Red
Bluff and the result of his assays will be
awaited with feverish anxiety. The coun-
try around-about this vicinity is said to be
covered with this quartz, which miners
have never deemed worthy of picking up.
There are very few miners in this part of
the country who have seen tin ore and it ia
possible that the find may amount to some
thing. II go We can look for an extension Of
the he'd Bluff railroad, which in sixteen miles
would reach the discovery.
