OREGON HOLDS RAIN RECORD.
Wilson, Tillamook County, Had 136
Inches OF Rainfall I'm 1904.

Wilson, in Tillamook county, is the
wettest town in the United States of
which the weather bureau has any
of 1856 inches every IL months. 1t
mists, patters, rains and occasionally
pours from beginning to end of the
year, says the Oregon Daily Journal
Fearing that something might be
wrong with the gauge for measuring
the precipitation at that place, As
sistant District Forecaster Wollaber
Wilson to make thorough inquiry
into the situation. The instruments
were found true and the only reason
for the large amount of moisture
which they showed was held to be
due to rain, rain. rain.
The station is In charge of Mrs.
Jennie Reehr, who has been measur-
ing the falling waters at the same spot
| for the past 13 years. Mr.. Wollaber
says that she is one of the most cap
able persons i'm the service-careful
and conscientious. Moreover. the
gauge and instruments used at the
station are perfect.
Wilson nestles in a canyon, on each
side of which the mountains rise to
a height of 1900 feet above the level
of the townsite. The weather experts
are of the opinion that the topog-
raphy of the country contributes
very largely to the excessive rainfall
There may be other points in Til
iamook county" said Mr.. Wollaber
-'at which there is an equal amount
of precipitation. but they are not ia
vored with a government rain station
It is probable that there are points
In southeastern Alaska where the an
nual rainfall is heavier. but of course
this is merely conjectural. Clear
Water, jefferson county, has an an
nual rainfall of 100 inches. That is
the next to the highest on record in

AGAINST THE MACQUEs.
Bill in the Legislature Seeks t
Abolish Social EVIL.


One of the most important of the
bills introduced before the legisla-
ture during the present session is the
one introduced before the house
Thursday relative to husbands who
connive at the prostitution of their
wives. says the Salem, Statesman.
This bill also applies to persons who
live off or accept the earnings of
prostitutes or who solicit persons to
go to the houses of iil-fame for i'm
moral purposes. II also provides
against the admittance Of females
under the age OF IS years Of age into
houses of ill-fame. For the violation
Of the law, IL enacted, the transgres-
sor would be arrested on the charge
of felony and IL convicted, sentenced
to a term in the state penitentiary Of
not less than one year or more than
five.
This bill is for the direct purpose
of driving out of the state the most
disreputable and Objectionable class
of men known as "macques." II such
bill was passed these degenerated
creatures would be compelled to face
the alternative Of supporting them
selves by going to work OF getting out
of the state.
The Salem authorities are now wag-
ing a persistent and unremitting war
fare against these leeches of society
but they are unable to do anything
more than to convict them on the
charge of vagrancy. A number OF
them are working on the streets un-
der charge of the authorities. having
been convicted on the charge of va
grancy.

thrill of pride in his citizenship and In

most beautiful OF its kind throughout

so great a state should have SO fine a

INVADE CEMETERIES.
Police Do This In Order to Obtain Evil
dence of Treason.

st. Petersburg. April s.-Enorts OF
the police to smother the present agi-
tation has led them to invade ceme-
teries in their search for evidence of
treason. II has become the practice OF
students to place on the graves OF
comrades who were active or who suf-
fered in the cause OF freedom wreaths
bound with ribbons on which political
sentiments are inscribed. The police
now make nocturnal visits to ceme-
teries In search OF these reasonable
notices. which are promptly confis-
Gated. Being ignorant, the police
make curious mistakes. The other day
harmless inscription in Greek, sim
ply expressive OF sympathy. was seiz-
ed. and on Wednesday a red ribbon
attached to a wreath. although upon
the grave OF former well known Off
cial. was interpreted by the police as
n revolutionary emblem, which was not
only cut Off. but created so much
alarm that a general order was sent
out to all vendors OF mortuary wreaths
prohibiting the sale OF ribbon.
Stories of sufferings on the part OF
widows. wives and families of soldiers
at the front are attracting general at
tention. and the public demands that
the government aid the sufferers. To-
cal charities are no longer able to cope
with the situation. In many places
funds raised for this purpose are en-
tirely exhausted and provincial papers
are filled with pathetic accounts Of
starving mothers and children begging
in the streets at Nizhni. Novgorod,
the palace of the governor. is besieged
by crowd OF hungry women whit
labes In their arms asking for bread.
The governor informed the women he
would appoint n commission to inves-
tigate the situation. His reply aroused
the ire of the local press. The Viedi-
mosti said: There Is always the
eternal commission. and while It in
vestigates women and children
starve."
Under the new press regulations the
papers are not permitted to publish
anything affecting the emperor or i'm
perial family without the consent of
the court censorship at the palace.
The imperial chancellory formally re-
quested the Kobek commission. which
is revising the press regulations. to
include this restriction. and such re-
quest the commission regards as be-
ing equivalent to an imperial order.
