The Rural Spirit, a paper which
draws its chief support from the Ore
gon farmer and woolgrower, the two
principal industries in the state af-
fected by the extortlon OF the sack
and jute trust, is opposed 10 a jute
mill at the Oregon penitentiary, and
makes the same stereotyped excuse
for opposing it that the politicians Of
the Willamette valley make. In a re-
cent issue it says of the subject:
Especially since the visit Of the del
egation of Oregon legislators to the
Washington state penitentiary for the
purpose Of examining their jute mill
and investigating the feasibility of es
tablishing a similar industry at the
Oregon penitentiary, there has been
quite a little discussion of the subject
in our exchanges, some of which are
in doubt about the matter, while 9TH
ers strongly favor the PROJECT.
There can be no question Of the ne
cessity of something being done to
relieve the grain bag situation, which
has become especially serious this
year. All things considered, however,
we are inclined to seriously DOUBT the
propriety of the state of Oregon en-
barking in this line of business.
If the business could be operated at
a small profit to the state and a full
supply of bags furnished the farmers
it would be different proposition
but since the state would pe at the
mercy Of the combine in securing the
raw material, could only furmsh
small part of the sacks required, and
to furnish them at reasonable price
might have to do so at loss, or at
best a very meager profit the pro-
priety of the undertaking is question
able.
For the state to make only Few
bags and furnish them at about cost
to those who are fortunate enough for
any reason to secure them would not
be right. 1t would not be DONG JUS

UP. LETS BIG CONTRACT.
Line VIII BE Double Tracked for 14t
Miles.

That the Union Pacific proposes to
double track its main line just as fast
as the work can be done in order to
meet the growing conditions of traf-
fic Is evident from the fact that plans
ave now ready and within a few days
the company will ask for bids for the
construction of Ill miles of new
double track which will be opened
and the contract let during December
so that work can begin early In the
spring, says the Cheyenne Tribune.
One hundred miles of this double
track will be constructed on the Ne
braska division which did not get its
quota of improvements this year, anh
the remaining Ala miles will be be-
tween RaHlins and Wamsutter on the
Wyoming division.
During the past summer and fall
plans and estimates for this work was
made by the resident engineers Of
flee of this city and these estimates
have been approved by the higher Of
ficials and the work authorized. The
bids will be asked for by Chief Engi-
nc"r tluntley and among the bidders
viii be Kilautrick Brothers, who have
Just completed a contract for building
I6 miles Of double track between
cheyenne and RawliEs.
At present the Union Pacific has
l4l miles of its main line between
Omaha and Green River double
tracked and next year an equal length
of road will be equipped with a sec
onl track When this new work is
finished over one-third of the entire
main line Of the Union Pacific will be
doa5le-track railroad. The double
| tracking of the entire system is now
recognized as an absolute necessity, as
at times 1t is almost impossible to
handle the great traffic enjoyed by the
Union Pacific, the most dense handled
bv any sngle-track railroad in the
| world.

Of armor came north and settled at
Anadir bay. They were kindly re-
ceived. and for time there was peace
between them and the tribes, but they
soon attempted to assume authority
and at the call of powerful chiefs thc
tribes gathered 5000 strong. The Is
white men fought desperately, but in
the end all were killed except two.
one Of these was bound and the other
was tied to rope of thongs, which
was siezed by the savage warriors and
the bare body of the unfortunate vic
tim was dragged over the Jagged ice
and tundra until he died.

They took the other man to the edge
of the icy sea and turned his face
southwark. Go" he was told, land
tell your white brothers what we do
to those who dare to invade the
north" What curious chance led these
hardy men to brave the terrors of the
north clad in arTnor and with weapons
only fit for European war will prob
ably never be known, as the history
of France and Navarro tells no story
of any expedition of the kind. The
superstition of the natives has caused
them to preserve the relies from gem
Grafton to generation.

HIGH SCHOOL FRATERNTTIES.
Three Years Investigation i'm All
Parts of Union Condemns Them.

Chicago, Nov. 24.-High school fra
ternities and sororities were dealt
crushing blow when the committee of
the secondary schools made its report,
after three years. investigation. con-
demning the secret societies as fetish,
comical. unsocial and of a degenera-
tive influence.
The report, which is considered the
most thorough study ever made of the
high school problem, was read by
Principal Spencer A. Smith of the
Wendell Phillips High school at the
nineteenth annual conference of the
academies and high schools in rela-
tions with the University of Chicago"
in Haskell hall It was adopted
unanimously.
More than 400 high schools and
preparatory institutions, situated in
nearly every state in the country, are
enrolled in the association and the
doom of the prep school Greek Let
ter societies. which exist in the ma
| iority of the schools, was declared to
have been marked by the conclusions
reached. Some of the high school
principals, in suggesting ways and
means to stamp out the evil, branded
| fraternity members with most severe
| names.
Principal T.. V. Robinson of the
Central high school of St Paul, TAX
ing the stand that the boards of edu-
cation should prohibit fraternities
rather than let parents work out the
problem themselves, described the
conditions In his school.
Il have found that in my seven
years experience at Central high
school the fraternity has a most de-
generating influence" he said, Boys
belonging to fraternitles, l have
found, will lie, cheat, do anything to
remain loyal to their societies. The
fraternity has developed professional
liars in my school,"

One of the most curious stories that
around an exhibit of ancient armor at
the Northwestern fair, in progress at
Seattle, says the Seattle Star. The
armCr is the property of John j. Hau-
gan. and was purchased by him from
the Eskimos at Anadr bay, Siberia
on 3ering sea, almost due west of
Nome, Alaska.
The armor consists of two complete
suits of mail of the kind worn by arch
ers Al the 18th century. With the suits
liz an ancient culver containing two
arrows and helmets to complete the
outfits. The suits are made of narrow
plates of the finest hammered steel
bound together by thongs of buck
skin. This forms the breast covering,
and a skirt that falls almost to the
knees. There is a back plate made
of wood covered with buckskin, upon
which Is worked figures of artistic de-
sign by means of something that re-
semhles modern typography. The
helmets are typical of the urchers of
the 18Th century, and are composed
OF the strips of steel completely COW
ering the skull, with extensions to
protect the ears.
Curious Workmanship.
The bow is curiously inlaid with sew
pral kinds of wood. The quiver is Il
remarkable example of painstaking
care in working buckskn, being COW
cred with braided cords of this ma
tcrial. one of the helmets Is inlaid

ppean warriors who died in the frozen
north SO many years ago. These are

play Randolph Macon here Saturday as
was stated exclusively in yesterdays

there might be a hitch in the cancella-

has been satisfactorily arranged, and a

would be here on the Sd.
As Randolph Macon has a strong team
this year the game should prove an in

the two teams took place year before

toriOus by II to O.
Last year no game was scheduled oyy-
ing to a misunderstanding between the
managers OF the respective teams Man

the 18th of September this season. but
was not successful and the Navy Yard
was played instead. AS 10th George
