BOARD or DIRECTORS
IN COMPANY WITH sUPERIN-
TENDENT VISIT SCHOOL.
Report the School in Better Condition
Than Was Ever Known
In History.

Athena's efficient school board,
consisting of A. M. GilIis, A. B. Nc
Even and David Williams, directors,
and o. g. Chamberlain. clerk, in
company with County Superintendent
of Schools Frank X. Welles yesterday
made the public school an official
visit.
These gentlemen, after careful
observance of the workings of the
various departments of the school, re-
port that under the management of
Principal George B. Marquis, the
school has gained degree of excel
lency never before attained in its his
tory. The students in all departments
evince most flattering interest in
their studies, and are advancing with
surprising rapidity in the years work.
This gratifying condition doubtless
is due not solely to the untiring efforts
of Mr.. Marquis and his excellent corps
of teachers, but to the helpof parents
as well, who are in harmony with the
aims of the former to make of this
the best school Athena has ever had.
Let these conditions continue and
the present years work will tell in the
future of the beginning of a new era
in Athena's public school history.

REJECTED THE COMPROMISE.
County Court Turns Down o. II. q N.
Conpany's Offer.

County Court Turns Down o. II. y N.
Cornpany's Offer.
AT a session of the county commits
sioners held yesterday the compromise
proposition recently made them by
the o. R. N. Co., was formally re-
jected, and the railroad company,
through its local attorney, Colonel j.
H. Raley, was notified of the decision.
What action will now be taken by the
company is not known. However, it
is presumed that they will either
make more liberal offer to the coun-
ty court or else file suit in equity in
hopes of proving the assessment of
$12, 200 per mile to be unjust.
From an official source, says the
East Oregonian, it was learned that
the proposition made by the railroad
company was that the assessment be
placed at $40, 900 on back taxes as we'll
as that for this year, but that all
penalty and interest charges be with
drawn by the court. Apparently the
objection to losing the interest and
imposed penalties was largely respon-
sible for the refusal of the commits
sioners to accept the offer. Whether
or not the company will now offer
to settle on a basis of $40, 900 per mile
and also pay interest and penalties re-
mains to be seen.

NEW DECISION MADE.
Agent Must No Longer Retain Money
Due Indians

Agent Must No Longer Retain Money
Due Indians
Hereafter the Indian agent here
will have no authority for retainin 3
money due Indians from the sale of
their lands and to deliver it over to
them in small allotments. This is the
result of decision made by Circuit
Judge Ellis yesterday afternoon. The
case in court was that of John w.
Martin against J. J. McKoin, agent
at the reservation, and was suit to
compel the defendant official to deliver
over to an Indian money alleged to be
due him from the sale of land.
Judge Fee, attorney for Martin, pre-
sented demurrer to the answer that
was filed some time ago to the suit.
In addressing the court he called at
tention to decision that had just
been given by United States Circuit
Judge Hanford, in which it was held
that as an Indian was a full citizen
he was entitled to immediate possess
sion of any money coming to him from
the sale of land. After some consid-
GRAFTON of the matter the demurrer
was sustained by Judge Ellis, and at
the request of counsel for plaintiff
Judgment was rendered in favor of
Martin, no objection being made by
counsel for the defendant. EAST Ore

EXCURSION ARRIVES
PORTLANDERs VISIT OUR CITY
AS PER SCHEDULE.
Over 100 Of the Leading Business
Men Of the Metropolis Were Met
By Athena en- Masse.

The special excursion train bearing
over one hundred of the leading spirits
In the business world of Portland, ar
rived at the Athena depot as per
schedule yesterday morning at 1920,
and were met by Athena's CONNER
cial Association, in body, headed by
the following. reception committee,
specially appointed for the OCCASION:
Q. A. Barrett, A. b. McEwen, David
Taylor, d. Fl. Preston, Will M. Peter
son and Ed Manasse.
The business men of the city, the
school children, headed by their
teachers and large crowd of citizens
had gathered at the depot to welcome
the governor and other pilgrims. y
Governor Chamberlain was intro
duced by Attorney Will M. Peterson
of this city, who gave short address
of welcome. The governor responded
with brief speech, in which ne men
toned the vast improvement he noted
in the city since his former visit,
shortly before his election. The
speech was met with applause, and
the governor was greeted by many
with handshake.
The excursionists proceeded up town
where 80 minutes was spent in viewing
the city as well as SO short time
would permit. The various business
houses were visited and many COM
pliments showered upon our enter
prising merchants and store keepers.
All were enthusiastic over the appar-
ent prosperity and thrift of the city
and surrounding country, and ex-
pressed themselves as we'll pleased
with their short visit.
The following Greeting was
handed out in neat pamphlet form to
a representative of the Press. and is
SO expressive of the general tone of the
visitors and the spirit of the occasion
that we reproduce it:
I'm early summer Portland's gates
were opened wide for you, and we are
pleased and proud with your response.
We're coming to tell you SO. And the
gates are never to be closed. We are
to break bread with you, our neigh
bors, in your fertile valleys--the best
bread basket i'll the world. The same
mountain ranges margin our maps;
the whistles of the same locomotives
sound in your ears and ours; the
waters that freshen into life your fer
tile fields carry from our wharyes the
commerce of the sea.
'Bct closer than any bond Of the
south bank or of north bank or of
stream between, is the bond of good
fellowship that grows by each others
fireside. Something more than com
mercialism, something more than the
swapping of bargains, something more
than common pride in the growth
of our common empire, binds us all
together. And we think this some
thing can better be expressed by a
little journey upstream across the inn
aginary state lines than by postal
cards from home. We are coming to
call on you, friends; we're hoping to
see you all "

A GOOD IDEA.

waiia walla Business Men Talk of Fol-
lowing Athena's Example,
The business mems excursion from
Portland suggested revival of the
discussion as to the advisability of the
removal of the 0. r. & N. depot from
its present location to the west end of
Main street, says the Walla Walla
Union. In interviews with some of
the prominent local business men they
expressed the view that inasmuch as
there would be number of railway
officials among the excursionists, it
would be good time to get together
and talk the matter over with them.
The reasons advanced for the pro-
posed change Of location for the depot
were many, but the first reason was
that the change was desirable on ac-
count of the fact that q travellers first
impression Of city as seen from the
depot is the impression that is most
lasting. With the depot at the west
end of Main street the best initial
effect possible would be produced in
the minds Of passing people and as
this view of Main street would be
almost the last impression of the
town, this reason is all the stronger.
Another reason for the change as
brought forward by one of the city's
most progressive merchants is that of
convenience for the travelling public.
Under the arrangements suggested
they would have the two depots of
the city on the same street.
