grasped the Governor by the hand. Gov
ernor Rogers responded with a compli-
mentary tribute to the excellent services
the Washington troops performed IN the
Philippines and then he went down on the
lower decks and shook hands with nearly
every man in the regiment.
Levy Ankeny. the Walla Walla million
aire, who generously offered to pay for
the transportation Of the entire regiment
from this city to their homes, went aboard
with his wife to see their son, who Is a
private in Company l., and when the men
cheered him to the echo.
The troops were out on the firing line
up and get ready for their long journey
home. They had to make unusual haste,
as the Pennsylvania was scheduled to sail
the next morning. In their hurry to get
aboard many Of the soldiers left behind
valuable trinkets and curios. which they
had been collecting ever since they set
foot on Philippine soil. At Nagasaki and
Yokohama the boys were given extended
shore leave, and they enjoyed themselves
sightseeing for two days.
The trip across the Pacific was an I'M
usually rough one. The transport encoun-
tered severe storms few days after leav-
ing Yokohama, which made matters ex-
tremely unpleasant for everybody aboard.
No deaths occurred during the voyage
While the troops were at Yokohama
John F. Convey, ex-Mayor Of Olympia,
who is now Consul General at Yokohama,
rendered the officers of the regiment a
banquet.
In addition to the Washington troops
the transport brought back eighty dis
charged soldiers from the Fourth Cavalry
and Fourteenth Infantry. Major Seaton
of the Twelfth Infantry was also aboard

The regiment will probably be marched
to the Preside this morning. Iieutenants
Lamping and Lemon have been detailed
TO take charge Of the transport until the
quartermasters stores are removed.
The Washington regiment was on the
firing line continually from February to
September L
II am proud of the record made by our
boys, said Governor Rogers when seen
yesterday aboard the transport. 'They
proved themselves to be fighters Of high
standard. and our State Is justly proud of
them. 1 am simply overjoyed at their
safe return"

Farmers School.

Every farmer should attend the far
mers school which beg ms it's annual ses-
sion week from next Monday, January
3Oth. The fsrmers should snow to the
legislature now in session that they are
deeply interested in agricultural educa-
ton, The presence OF large body of
farmers when the legislative committee
visits the college would do much to
strengthen the good cause. Besides, the
general good feeling that arises when
farmers get together, is of great value to
them. No class OF men find it harder to
work in unison than the farmers. The
instruction given by the professors has
been of great benefit heretofore and no
progressive farmer can afford to lose it
Begin to attend the first day, and keep
it up throughout,
