Some Official Figures.

There has been so much discus.
sion since the beginning of the
Anti-License campaign as to the
amount of revenue derived from
/ liquor licenses, and the relation oi
the public schools of this State to
this revenue, that some official fig
ures taken from the last reports
of the Auditor of Accounts and the
State Treasurer may be of interest.
The Auditors 5 report shows that for
the school year ending June, 1906,
the amount disbursed by the School
Districts of the State, including the
city Of Wilmington, was S5o1, =
1880. 1t is a fact that of this sum
not one dollar came directly from
the fees for liquor licenses of any
sort.
The reports above referred to for
the year 1906 show that there was
received during that year as follows
Brewerstclassified as manufacturers)s 24s.9l
Saloons Including 3gSYg 493SY5
Total ..-..-...S77, 1905
If classified by counties, the to-
tails appear as follows
New Castle COunty.................. ... s66,9iS9l
Kent County. 6,5i04U
Sussex County 40O075
Tota............................... ST. 100 o.
All of these receipts from liquor
licenses go directly to the general
fund of the State Treasury, and not
to the School Fund, as they did
prior to 1897 when the new Consti-
tuition was adopted.
II the total of these receipts went
to the School Fund, their loss would
not be irreparable, if the State could
thereby be free from the evil Of the
saloon, and the counties relieved of
the expense of prosecuting and
maintaining criminals and paupers
produced by alcoholic liquors. Esp
ecially is this true of Kent and Sns-
sex counties. The Auditors report
shows there were disbursed for school
purposes in
Kent Countv......................... sSf. 500
sussex County l5. .55
Receipts from liquor licenses in
Kent County................... Sd. 5000
sussex County ............... 4OOO75
In both Of these counties the loss
would not be very material. But,
as a matter Of fact, as stated above
not one dollar Of these license fees
goes directly to the schools.

That the o. R. & n. company is
actually in desperate straits for fuel
on parts of its system, is shown by the
following dispatch from Spokane,
which says:
On the grounds that it was neces-
sary in order TO carry out their con-
tract to carry the United States mail,
the o. R. & n. railroad has recently
confiscated several cars OF coal con-
signed to Spokane fuel companies. So
acute were the needs of the railroad
that at the close of last week not a
pound of coal remained in their bunk
ers and in order to run the mail
trains the company seized sufficient
coal to send out the trains yesterday.
That the famine is vitality affecting
the great corporation is shown by the
fact that every freight train out of
Spokane yesterday was annulled, and
unless the supply is augmented at
once 1t is doubtful If the company will
be able to send out trains today.
The coal confiscated came into Spo-
kane over the Corbin road in the
Hartman company's cars, which were
sent north several days ago. One car
of high grade coal which was con-
signed to the Consumers Coal COM
pany was at once confiscated. E. F.
Waggoner Of the Union Fuel & Ice
company, said several cars of semi
anthracite coal consigned to his COM
pany had been seized by the Q, r, &
N, just how many he could not state.
Customers of several of the local coal
companies will suffer a shortage Of
fuel unless the railroad secures imme-
diate relief.
Move Mails Under Penalty.
The officials of the company sent
out their passenger and mail trains
yesterday, as they are under heavy
penalties to the government and must
keep the trains moving at all hazards.
The scarcity has been growing more
pronounced since the cent cold snap
and there is a brisk demand for coal
for private consumption.
The Corbin road is moving all the
coal it can with its limited rolling
stock and it has been customary for
llit OtilSI lOeiu W SSilu tihpllCo hOi I'll
for coal. Part of these are loaded and
consigned to local fuel companies and
the rest are sent down the o. R. 6;
n. to towns in the inland empire.
1t could not be learned yesterday
how many cars of coal have been
seized, but it is likely that fuel COM
panies along the o. r. G. n. will suf-
fer, as the railroad is no respecter OF
persons in the fact of the present
stringency. 1t is likely that the seiz-
ure may continue several days, but the
local officials are making desperate
efforts to replenish their empty bunk.
ers. 1t means loss of thousands OF
dollars to the company, as not pound
of freight can be moved and it is with
difficulty that mail trains are handled

JOE PARR ARRESTED
WANTED BY. AUTHORITIES a'
FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS.
Shot and Lamed His Cousin Nearly
Two Years Ago on the Reservation,
and Escapcd-A Thorough Search
Was Made for Him at the Time,
But He Escaped by Hiding Out-Is
Regarded as Bad Man as Result
of Many SCrapes.

Joe Parr, the half-breed Indian.
was arrested on the streets this fore
noon by Glenn Bushee, United States
deputy marshal and he is now a rris-
oner in the county Jail.
Parr was wanted upon a charge
that has been standing against him for
nearly two years. While at his home
on the reservation one day in the
spring of 1905, he engaged in a
drunken quarrel with his cousin, Ike
Parr. In the course of the same he
shot his relative and then escaped.
Ike Parr was brought to the hospital
and for time his life was despaired
of, but he finally recovered, though
ihs is lame in one leg as a result of
his wound.
At the time of the trouble a thor
Uugll search of the reservation was
made for Joe Parr by Deputy Bushee
and others: However. no trace of him
could he found, and 1t was decided
to await his return to the reservation.
AS was anticipated, he came back to
his former stamping ground and was
easily retaken.
Aside from his trouble with his
cousin the prisoner has been involved
in numerous other affairs during his
career and is regarded in the light OF
bad man.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-01-09

With the death of Skaloo, or Tka-
day before yesterday there passed
away one who had somewhat of his
tory. In many ways the dead man is
entitled to an obituary and the fol-
lowing is the story of his life as told
the East Oregonian yesterday by Uma-
pine and Motanic:
Tkaloo was the child of Tau-i.tau,
chief of the Cayuses when the white
men first came among the tribes of
this section. Tau-i-tau was a chief
of peaceable intentions ana during his
lifetime he was always friendly to the
whites. Consequently he allowed the
Catholic priests to baptise Tkaloo
while he was a very small papoose.
He was the first Indian cnild of this
section to be so treated. The old
chief likewise assisted in the build
ing of the first church upon the res
ervation. 1t was the Catholic church
which formerly stood where the gov
ernment school is now located and
was made Of logs.
In 1852. the year after the reser-
walton was established. old Tau-i-tau
died. However, his offspring did not
become the tribal leader but instead
showed no inclination along that line.
While filled with grief over his faith
er's demise, he Travelled about among
the other tribes of the northwest
When he returned to the Umatilla
reservation he found his ancestral
property and the position of chief had
been assumed by his relative, What
im-ini. The latter declined to lay
aside his mantle of authority or to
give Tkaloo the horses that were
rightfully his. When Wi-at-im-ini
died the leadership fell to Young
Chief the first. Upon the latter's
death his son, the late lamented Young
Chief, became the sovereign of the
Cayuses. He is now dead and Tau-i-
tau rules in the position occupied by
the original man of that name whose
cognomen the present chief assumed
apparently because of its historical
! prestige.
Tkaloo the rightful heir to the
leadership of his tribe, is now dead
| He died at o'clock Monday morning
and according to his Indian biogra.
pliers, he was in his 92d year. Hi!
father was buried with Indian pomI
and ceremony and his name lives ii
the memory of his tribe. Tkaloo, the
unlucky prince, was inferred undel
the auspices of Baker & Folsom anC
by those of later generations he is re-
membered merely as a queer old In
dian, regarded by white men as bug
house" Thus it seems that Fate il
sometimes no kinder to the redskir
than to his paleface brother.

Portions of Holdings.

The original grant was 400 feet. The
