EDITOR IN BED WITH A CORPSE.

Major James Morton, editor of the
Hardman Free Press, unwittingly
went to bed with corpse in Junction
City last night, says a Kentucky cor
respondent. He had missed his train,
and, going into the hotel, asked for a
room.
The clerk said the house was crowd
ed, but assigned the editor to a room
with another man. BY mistake the
clerk sent him into the wrong room
and the editor quietly disrobed and
| got into bed. Soon a young man and
woman came in and took seats near
! the open window. The major thought
the procedure strange, but said MOTH
| ing. Listening to what they said, he
heard a remark about sitting up with
| the dead.
Then he remembered that his bed
mate had not moved, and reached
over and touched his hand. with
yell the major jumped up with
sheet over him and rushed from thu
room. Believing that the corpse hat
come to life, the two watchers brok'
for another door and all met in th'
office of the hotel for explanations.

COLLEGE CLUBS DOOMED.

One of the most detrimental sads of
the educational life of the United
States, the college club or i:aternal
society, seems now doomed to be
abolished There is determined
movement against the aristocratic
club among conservative college mnn
and 1t is to be sincerely hoped that
their efforts are successful
The clubs have been the means of
driving thousands of deserving young
men away from colleges, simply be-
cluse they could not suffer the sharp
lines of caste drawn by the clubs. The
oregon Sunday Journal Magazine says
of the subject:
Possibly our young men may nave
to study at college in future.
Have you heard the dictum? Like
hombshell it has crashed from the
quiet walls of Princeton. Like the
yolley of the Minute Men, it will PROB
ably go on reverberating until neard
around the world.
Death to the club life which has
been in so many cases one Of the
main incentives to attending Ameri-
cas- largest colleges-this and Tie
total abolition of caste, so dear to the
iunior and senior, Is what the thun-
ders proclaim.
A committee, of which President
woodrow Wilson is chairman, has So
advised, and the idea has been adopt
ed by the Princeton trustees. includ-
ing ex-President Grover Cleveland.
According to this plan, either the
thirteen college clubs at Princeton
must be abolished, or the club houses
must be turned over to the college
to be presided over by professors and
to be occupied by the despised fresh
man and sophomore on terms OF
equality with the high-caste men wh'
built and furnished them.
One of these clubs represents $685.
900; others are nearly as luxurious
their aggregate value Is about $780,,
600. Membership in them is regard
ed as a greater mark of distinction
than taking class honors in studies
In fact, in the opinion of DR.. Wilson
the college has come to be sort o.
tail to the club kite.
Back of the Princeton innovation
lies a modern tendency to make
business of going to college, to abol'

BATTLESHIP ACCIDENTS.

Peace hath her dangers no less than
war, as the powder explosion on the
battleship Georgia has once again
demonstrated. In the engagement off
the Cuban coast which led to the de-
struction of Cervera's entire fleet the
American navy lost one man killed,
while another was injured. Since
then there have been several acci-
dents, so-called, on fighting vessels of
ours, each of which has cost more
lives several times over than the fa-
nous victory off Santiago.
1t has been remarked that curl
Gus feature connected with the ex-
plosion on the Georgia is that it is
classed by most persons as among the
unexpected happenings.
A disaster on a railroad train, or a
slaughter on a blasting job, would
not attract half as much attention
even If the killed and wounded were
several times as numerous. Yet the
handling of big guns, under conditions
of actual battle to the extent of burn
| ing gunpowder and hitting targets
cannot be divorced from risks to hui
man life. The wonder is that, all the
chances considered, the casualties ir
our navy in time of peace are moi
greater.
Naval contractors, like oteher NOR
tails, can not foresee, nor provide for
every contingency that may arise
Each disaster points out some hither
to overlooked danger, and the mos
that can be asked is that the lessor
it teaches be taken to heart.-Publi'
Inquirer.

THE GOLDEN RECORD.

The farms of the northwest states
will yield a golden store this year,
store greater than the output of the
gold mines of the Pacific coast. Hy-
man H. Cohen, a market reviewer Of
Portland, in speaking of the crop
record of the northwest this season,
says:
For but three Of the grain crops the
farmers of the Pacific northwest will
this year receive close to $60,000,o00
right at their farm gates. This vast
sum will this year be distributed
among the graingrowers of the inland
empire and the Willamette valley;
most Of the fortune, however, going
to those east of the Cascade noun
tains.
The wheat crop of the three states
alone will net the farmers s42, 900, 900
for their seasons work, while the bar
ley and oats crop will bring his net
sales close to the $50, ,O00,O 900 mark.
The wheat crop Of the Pacific
northwest and, in fact, all grain crops
north Of the California line, will break
records the present season. OF wheat
alone the production in Oregon, Idaho
and Washington will run to 100000
bushels-maybe more-for every re-
port from the harvest fields brings in
additional record-breaking figures.
Yields Of so and 60 bushels to the
acre are very common in the wheat
fields of the great Pacific northwest
grain fields this season. Some fields
have run as high as 10 bushels an
acre in spots, but these large yields
are very scarce and probably only a
half dozen or a dozen fields In the
three states will yield over 60 bushels
to the acre.
The average yield this season In the
three states will run close to 30 BUSH
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-08-12

els to the acre, so the average income
will reach s21 an acre for every acre
of wheat planted.
Quality viii break all records in
Pacific coast wheat production this
season by the three states of the north
coast, There was never a time pre-
vious to this season when so large n
percentage of the grain grown will
grade No, l. In fact, the 9er cent
that will grade less than the best is
so small that it can scarcely lie con-

MORE CHARTER CHANGES.

There is a strong sentiment in Pen
dieton in favor of the popular city
government which has been adopted
by Galveston and Des Moines where
all authority is vested in commissions
instead of a council.
This system is even more practical
for smaller towns than for large
cities having elaborate systems Of mu-
nicipal government to arrange.
Under the Des Moines plan the ad-
ministrative powers, authority and
duties are distributed into and among
five departments as follows:
l. Department of public affairs.
2. Department of accounts and fl
nances.
3. Department of public safety.
4. Department of streets and pub
lie improvements.
5. Department of parks and public
property.
In other words, the five commits
sioners may run the affairs of the city
as a business institution hiring
whom they please, discharging whom
they want to, and spending the city's
money just as they would their own
in the most economical manner pos
slble.
And to make certain that the gov
ernment is properly administered, the
men who. wrote the charter provided
the recall. This section permits the
citizens upon petition of 25 per cen
of the voters to enforce the resigna
ton of an offending commissioner.
The people also have another safe
guard in the initiative and referen
dunn. Upon petition of 10 per cent o
the voters an ordinance may be hell
up and with a petition of 25 per cen
the people may initiate legislation.
A 10 per cent petition require
the council to suspend action and sub
nit a proposed ordinance to the peo
pie. Upon a petition of 10 per cen
the council must either pass the pro
posed legislation or submit it to ;
popular vote.

The women suffrage advocates of
France are jubilant over the new con-
quest. The government has just pro-
mulgated the law recently voted by
the chambers recognizing the right
OF a married woman to dispose of her
own earnings independently of her
husband. The law in France con-
cerning the privilege of the husband
as hitherto in vogue dated back to the
Roman period, and made the wife
in many instances practically the
slave. A drunkard or an idler backed
by the law was able to compel the
wife to hand over every penny she
earned. The new law has abolished
the most Objectionable of these feat
ures.

FILIPINos MAKE GOOD"

Twenty-one of the original 100
young Filipinos sent to the United
States by their native government
four years ago to be educated in
American colleges, left Chicago last
night for the Philippines with diplo-
mas in their pockets, prepared to
tackle the intricacies of self-govern-
ment. Twenty-three of the boys start
ed back home a few days ago, and
the remaining 46 have decided to re-
main in America.
The students appeared happy but
prouder than any of them was Major
Edward ]. Vattmann, chaplain U. S.
A., retired, and assistant superinten-
dent of the insural bureau in charge
of all the Filipino students in this
part of the country.
81 am proud to say that every one
of them carried off some kind of hon.
or or prize in the college he attend
ed" said Major Vattmann. There
was only one trouble with them
they studied too hard and we hao
some difficulty in preventing them
from OVERRIDING. Their uppermos'
thoughts were of the day when they
would have a hand in conducting af-
fairs of the government. They are
quieter than American college stu
dents and absence of cigarettes is no
ticeable in the Filipinos."
After giving each young man hi
transportation, SIS and a work OF
"The Faith of Our Fathers" writer
by Cardinal Gibbons, Major Vattmanl
turned the party over to ]. E. Vandez
one of the older boys.
1t is said that not one in the entir'
100 failed in his examinations.

FLAG THAT INSPIRED A SONG

over Fort McHenry, near Baltimore.

that city by the British, and which

later became a Catholic, to com 'se
"The Star Spangled Banner" has been
received at the National Museum and
placed in a glass case for exhibition.
1t has been lent to the government
by its owner, Eben Appleton, of New
York.
The flag is so old and torn that 1t
had to be reinforced with canvas
backing. 1t is 2S by 80 feet. The
flag has had a checkered career since
the bombardment of Fort McHenry.
Colonel Armstrong, who command
ed the fort at the time Of the bonn
bardment, took charge of the flag and
later gave 1t to his mother. The lat
ter presented 1t to a granddaughter
who married a member of the Apple
ton family, of New York and Boston.
Later 1t came into the possession OF

 an interest when the property was not paying; and it was believed that if his l children were stolen he would "come through" with $5O,0O0 or $6o,O00 in ran- som. Orchard said that when he went
 to North Idaho he got Jack Simpkins
 to enter the plot, and together they went to Coates to renew the scheme Coates was asked to stand up and Orchard said he was the man. Or
 chard was then asked whether he had not himself proposed the crime to Coates, who immediately rehuffed him, and whether Jack Simpkins had not warned Paulson the minute he heard of the plot Orchard denied both sugges- tions; and, reiterating his first story, | he insisted that Coates had consented | to stay in the plot and handle the mon- | ey they hoped to get from Paulson. 1 Then the defense showed the witness
 in the commission of series of mean l crimes and reduced to poverty in which
 he had to resort to pawning, borrowing and stealing to live for long period. l First he pawned jewelry and guns for
 $25 or $3O. Then he accepted the hos- pitality of Paulson's home while he | was plotting to steal Paulsons child.
 After that, with Jack Simpkins, he
 broke into the Oregan Railway and
 Navigation company's station They
 were after trunk full of iewelry sam-
 pies, but instead got a trunk full of
 shoe samples Next he tapped a cash
 register at Burke, for $S0 or $40.
 Summing up this period of crime, poverty and hard luck the defense
 wanted to know why, if he were in
 Idaho on a mission of murder for Hay wood, Mover and Pettibone and with
 unlimited credit from them, he did not
 send to them for money Instead of bor- 1 rowing and stealing. Orchard replied
 that he did send letter to Mover at
 Butte and got $100 but did not send to
 Haywood for4more because he was tenn
 porarily off the Steunenberg murder
 and away from where Steunenberg lived Lastly there came a showing
 that Orchard had borrowed $500 from
 Paulson on the strength of fraudu- lent story that he was going to Los
 Angeles to sell mining stock for Coates,
 and that this was the money that actu- ally paid his expenses and when he
 went back to Caldwell on the final mis-
 sion of murder.
 Swiftly reviewing his meetings with his old partner, who had meantime be-
 come rich, the defense asked the wit ness, if, disappointed and angered at his own hard luck in selling out the Hercules mine, when Steunenberg sent troops into north Idaho, he had not
 suddenly decided to borrow enough
 money from Paulson to take him to Caldwell, where he would murder the
 man whom he blamed for his misfor-
 tune, Orchard strenuously denied that
 this was his motive.
 The earlier part of the day was con- sumed with a review, from the stand

Hartford. June 12-On the motion of Senator Chase the senate to-day recon sidered its action in passing the bill concerning the appointment of a fe- male deputy factory Inspector. Senator Chase offered an amendment increasing the allowance for the com pensation of deputies and expenses from $S,5oO to 5000 a year. Senator Chase said he was in sympathy with the amendment offered on Tuesday by Senator Donovan.
 Senator McGovern said that at the session of 1905 the appropriation was $14,0oO for tyo years, and the factory inspector turned $S04.O9 into the treasury. He asked Senator Chase if he was awere of that fact.
 Senator Chase replied that he was not.

point of the defense, of the alleged plots against Peabody, Judge Gabbert, Judge Goddard and General Sherman Bell. It developed that during August, 1906, when with shotgun and buckshot he was stalking General Bell, Orchard went to live at the Pettibone house. The explanation of this relationship of fered by the defense in it's questions was that Orchard had gone there to keep Pettlbone company while Mrs, Pettibone was absent on an eastern visit.
