QUATE NUMBER OF MEN TO
HANDLE COAST FORTS

DR.. Cortlandt Marsden, the well
known war correspondent and writer,
accompanied by his wife, mOther-in
law, and little daughter June. paid a
short visit to this city today. The
Marsdens made the trip from the coast
in their Franklin motor car, in which
they will make the return trip to
Washington, D. C. DR.. Marsden is a
distant relative of Dr. Howard Man
tell of The Evening Statesman, whom
he visited at the latter's rooms in the
Die Brucke building. Regarding the
possibilities of a conflict between the
probability of an uprising in Venezue-
la, Dr. Marsden did not care to say
much for publication.
Well 1 am virtually convinced that
war is inevitable: that is judging by
the present indications" said the doc
tor Neither the Japanese nor their
press are very friendly to this country.
If it should come to a conflict the
sooner this country buckles down and
gets into shape the better for all con-
cerned. The Pacific will be the battle
ground. the Philippines an objective
point. and with our seacoast fortif1ca-
tions sorely in need Of men to operate
the guns-well congress would better
get down to earth and deal with mat
ters of vital importance to the welfare
of this country"
The Marsdens left shortly a1ter
luncheon for a visit to the front and
then continued their trip.

OF STATE LAND COMMISSIONER

E. w. Ross, commissioner of public
lands. has submitted to Governor
Mead parts of his biennial report con-
tanning interesting statistics regarding
the condition of the various granted
land area of the state. The central,
though perhaps not the most import
ant, fact in the report is that OF the
2.552,O36.2 .21 acres granted to the state,
only 236,OS2.71 acres, or 9.25 percent
um. have been sold. For the land sold
the state has received an average
price of $16.15.
These figures are based on mini
mum figure for the area in the COM
mon school grant. That grant is sup
posed to include sections 16 and sc
in every township in the state, which
would mean. in round numbers, 2,4S3,-
200 acres in that grant alone. But

TELLS ABOUT CONDITIONS IN FRISCO

Purely business trip, no limelight
about it," said Ben C. Holt when asked
what he could tell of public interest
about his extended trip to San Fran
cisco, Chicago St. Louis, and other
eastern cities from which he returned
yesterday.
Mr. Holt said that he had seen more
cold weather and snow since getting
back to this part of the country than
he had in the east where it was wet
and windy When asked about the
state of things at Frisco he said:
"They say that much has been done
since the fire but in looking at the
ruins and debris on every hand l
found it hard to believe that the fire
was not very recent thing"
In regard to the reports from the
City tlldt SHdhcS Slill COH-
tinued but that they were suppressed,
Mr.. Holt said:
THAT is pure nonsense. With the
number Of visitors that are there all
the time it would be impossible to pre-
vent the fact getting out if it were
true. There may have been one or
two slight shocks but nothing to ever
amount to anything"
Mr.. Holt was also decidedly of the
opinion that conditions as he saw them
in the east did not warrant the re-
cent predictions made Of a coming
business depression.
There is no over supply" he said,
"either in goods or of labor. In steel
and iron for instance, the big firms are
way behind their orders There is a
shortage Of men everywhere, instead of
a surplusage."

COURT HOUSE JAN|ToR ROLLED
Frank Wynans Takes Strenuous CD
lection to Intimation That He Is
Turn Coat.

Frank Wyans. the janitor at the
court house is up in arms today be-
cause he has been accused Of being a
democrat in order to secure the posi-
ton which he now holds and later turn
ing into the blackest kind of a republi-
can.
Wyans said this morning it was all
right to say there might be a change
in the janitors when the new board of
county commissioners took their office,
but he objected to being called a turn
coat
When the new Jail was completed,
Wyans was given the care of the build
ing and his salary was raised to $S5
month and he was provided with a
place for his family in the basement
of the courthouse.
Several applications will be placed on
file for the position and Wyans is still
guessing as to how the wind will blow.
All of the county officers, however, re-
gard him as a good man for the posi-
ton, but in the meantime he will be on
his nerves until the question is set
tied.

COLLEGE GIRLS FIGHT MOUSE
He Was a Little Fellow but Enough
and More to Set 20 Whitmanites
on Hot Trail for Safety.

One woman and mouse is a circus,
but there was world beater in
Walla Walla the other day when 20
Whitman girls in Reynolds hall chased,
lodged, pursued and fled from and
finally attempted to drown a "wee
mousie."
The big thing happened just before
the Christmas holidays. The small ro-
dent was found in one of the bathtubs
Of the girls dormitory. The discoverer
of the lawful animal" enlisted a friend
or two and the three attempted to dis
pose of the title fellow by the water
system.
He was too agile, however, and sue
ceeded in jumping over the edge before
the water erached him.
Things were doing then. The news
was spread by shrieks instead of
whispers and soon a score Of girls
armed with brooms, sticks, books and
shoes joined the anti-mouse brigade.
The cause Of the rumpus mobiliZed
himself together for q double quick re-
treat and saved himself by making for
his base of supplies through a small
hole in a corner of the hallway.

The combination was a solar plexus

the streets were running rivers.

fit of his neighbors who were getting

on Pleasant street, and broke through
a part of the roof and smashed sew

the water was rising up the creek. No
unusual quantity of water was running
through the city this morning.
John Wagner, a fireman in Station
No. 1, has a sore head today as the
result of the Shiny slush which the
chinook made on the sidewalks this
morning.
He slipped and fell on the back of
his head as he was coming down to

wound which required four stitches 70

KANSAS CROPS AHEAD
OF ALL PREVIOUS MARKS,

TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 3.-The report
of the Hon. F. D. COburn, secretary
of the Kansas state board of agricul-
ture, shows that the crop in this state
during the past year beat all previous
records. Though the corn yielded
some 100000 bushels less than the
previous year it's value was far above
that of any crop previously raised in
the state. The values of farm produce
alt live stock are estimated at $424,-
22c,767, or more than $15,OOO,OOOO in
excess of the preceding year. The to-
tai yield of wheat is estimated at 93,-
2a2,ao0 bushels. The all-round in
crease amounts to AZ per cent.
