During the past summer and winter
the officials OF the Baden railroads in.

FORMER MAYOR IN WALLA WALLA
JOHN /. ROBERTS, OF TACOMA
NOTES MANY CHANGES IN
GARDEN CITY.

"Walla Walla is forging ahead at a
rapid pace and is now taking her place
in line with the leading cities of the
state" said John L. Roberts, of Ia
coma, who arrived in Walla Walla yes
terday on a short business trip. "Since
my last visit to Walla Walla I notice
with great satisfaction the many sub
stantial improvements that have been
made in the city. The numerous new
buildings and the paving of streets has
made a great change in the old town
and 1 am pleased to see that Walla
Walla is casting aside her swaddling
clothes and coming out for progress
siveness. There is a charm about Walla
Walla that makes me regret in GER
tain degree that fate destined me to
leave the city and cast my lot il
Tacoma"
Mr.. Roberts has a host of friends in
Walla Walla who are pleased to learn
that he is prosyering in his new nome
He was for many years a resident CT
Walla Walla, being engaged in tbs
as a member of the council several
terms and was mayor for seven years.
He also represented the county in t. 6
state senate from 1898 to 1897.

GRADUATED WITH HIGH sH0N0Rs
FORMER WALLA WALLA BOY
COMPLETES COURSE IN THE
NAVAL ACADEMY.

Among the Washington young men

Gnormley, a former resident of Walla
Walla. He is the son of Rev. D. O.
Ghormley at one time pastor of the
First Christian church in this city, but
now in charge of a church in Tacoma.
Young Gnormley has won the dis
tinction of being in the first rank In
point of standing am has made him
self popular by mis- many accomplish
ments in the athletic sports of the
academy. He was in the football team
and participated in the games with
West Point in 1904 and 1905.
In track and field athletics he was
also prominent, and wears a green IN"
as a reward for records broken in
events of that nature. For his football
playing he received a yellow "N'' and
also a yellow star"
This year he was chosen as cadet
lieutenant, commander of the first bat
talon of the brigade of midshipmen.
For holding this position he is allowed
the privilege of wearing three gold
stripes about the cuff of his full dress
blouse, which makes him a three
striper," in the language of the
academy.
He graduated from the University of
Idaho and entered the naval academy
from Idaho in September, 1898 He
has been in Tacoma twice on visits to
his family and has made many friends

tons. He is expected in Tacoma about
the 21st on a short furlough before
entering active service in the navy.

WHITMAN COLLEGE NOTES. y
q y y y y y y y y = = = = y = =

The regular midyear meeting of the
Associated Students of Whitman was
held this morning Immediately after
chapel. The revised constitution was
considered briefly and laid on the
table to be voted on two weeks hence.
The football management reportd a
loss on the season of about $50 and the
glee club report showed a loss of
about $40.
Joseph Allen, the new baseball man.
ager, in speaking on prospects for the
season said that an unusual number
of intercollegiate games will be played
in Walla Walla this spring since the
State college will come here for two
games, the U. of I. for one and prob
ably the U. of W. for two. In case
the State university does not take the
trip east of the mountains it is possible
that Whitman may go to the Sound.
Harold Ellis, track manager, said
that there will be one college meet
here this year with Pullman. The
team will take the trip to Moscow to
contest with the U. of I.
Resolutions were passed thanking
Professor and Mrs. Fischer and Miss
Edith B. Merrell for the work that they
did to make the mems glee club the
success that it was this year.

SAYS THE STATE HAS PRIOR RIGHT
HIGHWAY COMMISSIONER is AID
VIsED CONCERNING USE OF
MOUNTAIN PASSES.

State road locations in SnOqualmie
and COwlitz passes take precedence
over the subsequent locations of the
same rights of way made by the new
railroads, is the opinion rendered to
State Highway Commissioner Snow
today in an extended letter from Rob-
torney general, is the report that comes
from Olympia.
The opinion was in response to a
letter written by Mr.. Snow last De-
cember asking if the states location
would hold against the railways and if
it is necessary for the state to file
with the secretary of the interior a
map of definite location of state roads
across government lands as the rail-
ways do, in order to acquire undis-
puted right of way.
Mr.. Booth says the act of congress
of July 26, 1866, provided that the
right of way for the construction of
highways over public lands, not re-
served for public uses, is hereby grant
ed and that because of such law there
is no need of filing maps of definite
location with the interior department.
Mr. Booth refers to the act of con-
gress of March 8, 1875, preventing the
holding of a pass, canyon or defile eX-
clusively by any road, and says that
if the state road is in a pass, canyon
or defile the railroad can probably en-
force a right of way if necessary, but
that in such event the railroad would
