While events have proved the
Justice of the reflections upon the
boards work of last year i'll re-
gard to the presidency, it is but
fair to some of the regents to
remark, that their action at that
time was not altogether undefens-
ible, but the excuse that was
proper then, no longer exists.
The people of Corvallis and of
the state have faith in the board,
and believe that it will not be
controlled by narrow and i'm
proper influences.

Mr.. Miller's application to be
appointed consul to Munich,
makes impossible his candidacy
for reelection as head of the COL

to any man who has the slightest
respect for dignity and the fit

reflection upon Mr.. Miller to con-
slider him candidate.

HE is THOUGHT TO BE INSANE
Downfall of Once Prosperous
Merchant Who Was Driven to
Drink by Business Reverses.
Friends Believe His Mind Is At

Driven to drink by business reverses,
William FHederichs, jeweler, at 1925
9 street northwest, and in former years
me of Washington's most prosperous mer-
chants, closed a long period Of dissipa-
ton 10y disappearing last Monday, after
pawning large quantity of jewelry
which mad been left with him for repairs.
The family of the missing man, who
believe that lis mind has been affected
by his iHdulgences, have had certificate
of insanity issued, and have requested
tire police TO look for him, and when
found he VIII te placed in an institution
for treatment
Mr. Friederichs has residedin Washington
nearly all his life He was formerly
large stock broker here, but failed in that
business and became a manufacturing jew
eler. This business also prospered poorly,
and h. was forced TO move from place to
place, his money and patronage dwindling
on each occasion. About six months ago he
moved TO 1922 6 street, residing with his
wife, above his place of business The
habit of drink had by this time become
fastened upon him, and he went upon
several protraCted sprees, which finally
eliminated in his wife sending him TO
Providence Hospital for treatment His
wife in the mean while decided to separate
from him and went to live with her mother
Last Monday his wife visited his shop
which lie also used as d living apartment,
and could find no traces of her husband
but discovered among his effects number
of pawn tickets, showing that various
valuable pieces OF jewdry had been dis
posed Of Upon inquiry she found that
no one had seen Mr.. Friederichs that
day The disappearance was reported TO
police headquarters and the police were
notified TO arrest the jeweier on sight
Nothing among the papers OF the missing
man could throw any light upon his dis
appearance, and in spite OF 3iiigent
search. no clue to his whereabouts has
been as yet discovered.
Mr.. Friederich's wife does not believethat
thinks that while under d mental aberra-
tion he left town and VIII eventually he
found. It is rumored that he has been
seen In Norfolk.
The pawn tickets which were found have
been turned over to Inspector Holm
berger, who delivers them to the owners
Of the jewelry as fast as they appear to
claim them. Other articles which were
given to Mr. Friedrich to retain, and which
he left behind him in the shop, are in the
custody Of Mr.. A. ]. Marsh, a hrother-in-
