ONTARIO GOING AFTER COAL.
Company VIII Develop Beds Already
Prospected.

There is a probability that Ontario
and this immediate section will not
be placed at the mercy of the coal
trust this winter, and that a company
of local business men of Nyssa will
be able to supply the demand for fuel
in this section, says the Ontario Ar
gus. e
The new company will be known as
the Eastern Oregon Coal company. J.
Bordall is president and H. J. Ward
is secretary.
Their property is located on Dry
creek, 12 miles from where that
stream empties into the Owyhee riv-
er. and 80 miles southwest of Nyssa.
There is a good road to the mine and
should 1t develop all its owners hope
for an electric line will be built to
ship out the fuel. 4
At meeting held at Nyssa July
22, George Ward Of that place and J.
Cozart of this city, members Of the
company, were appointed a commit
tee to take charge and thoroughly m
vestigate the prospect. J. Cozart and
H. j. Ward were also appointed a
committee to purchase core drill
to be used for that purpose. The
members of the company are all sub
stantial business men of Nyssa, ex-
cept Mr.. Cozart, who Is a capitalist Of
this city, and they are willing and
able to finance the enterprise and
have no stock to place on the mar
ket
Two men have been employed at
the mine about 16 days and have
mined out about 20 tons Of coal. A
tunnel has been sunk about 90 feet
and the vein of coal has increased
from tc II inches. The prospect is

The Salem Journal of which e.
Hofer. member of the new board
cf normal regents, is editor, says of
the normal situation in Oregon at
this time:
The state board in charge of the
four state normal schools has COM
pleted its preliminary work of admin
istration.
Each school has been visited by
committee of the board and an in
ycntory and financial and statistical
statement has been secured.
Suitable repairs and renovations of
equipment have been ordered to put
the institution in first class working
order.
The state has between two and three
hundred thousand dollars worth of
property on its hands. in the shape Of
normal schools and equipments.
Each of the schools has faculty
and officers elected by the outgoing
local hoard of regents, with salaries
fixed.
The new board, which entered up
on its duties early in July has no
power to abrogate any of these con-
tracts, except for cause shown.
The new board, which has central
ICED power Of control over the schools
has no power to abolish any of these
schools. 81
There was an effort to amend the
law to require the new board to dis
continue two of the schools, but the
amendment was defeated.
The new state board of regents has
no authority to dispose of any prop
erty of the normal schools.
It has no power to create any in
debtedness or pile up any bills against
the state for the conduct of such
schools.
The appropriations for Weston and
Ashland viii be carefully admins
tered, and it is the purpose of the
board to Increase the revenues of the
schools by making all fees payable
to the state.
IL the friends of the two schools
without appropriations because they
were vetoed by the governor, put up
the money to run them, the board has
no option but to keep the schools
open.
The law creating these state nor
NAL schools were not repealed, and
it is not good public policy to let the
property and equipment of these
schools stand idle.
The board is working hard to in
crease the quality and quantity Of the
work turned out by these state nor
NAL schools. The number of students
attending for professional work viii
he nearly doubled.

Through her rare presence of mind
Miss Rose o'Reilley, daughter of a
railroad man at Buford, last evening
prevented what might have proved to
be a seriouse accident to train No. 4
on the Union Pacific at Colores sta
tlon, says the Cheyenne Tribune.
Miss O'Reilly boarded the train at
Buford and was riding in the chair
car on the rear of the train when
one of the wheels broke and the car
began to bump over the ties.
The train was travelling at high
speed, coming down Sherman hill.
and Miss o'Reilly promptly grabbed
the bell cord and gave the signal to
the engineer to stop. This was done
as soon as possible and only the rear
trucks of the chair car had left the
rails. Had the signal not been given
1t is possible the car, which was filled
with people, and perhaps other
coaches would have been thrown in
to the ditch when a sharp curve was
encountered.
The chair car was cut off and the
rest of the train brought into Chey-
enne, wrecker going out to pick up
the chair car.

sIDE-DooR COACHES.
Hartman Building New Style OF
Passenger Coaches for His Lines.

Hartman Building New Style OF
Passenger Coaches for His Lines.
President Hartman of the South
ern Pacific short time ago gave or
ders to have number of new fine
passenger coaches built at the COM
pany's car shops at Sacramento with
side doors instead of end doors.
Hartman believes that cars thus
constructed will be much stronger and
more durable than the style now used;
and also that in case of wreck, there
will be little danger of the coaches
telescoping each other. The new
cars will have a small passageway
by which passengers may go from
one coach to another, but this will
be so arranged that 1t will not weak
en- the end walls of the cars.
Another feature of these coaches
iy the use of round instead of square
windows. New patent ventilators,
now being used by the Union Pacific
on its motor cars, will be placed on
the new coaches, and the cars will
present an appearance so little in
common with the ordinary coach,
that they will at first hardly be rec
ognized as a passenger vehicle.
Some of these cars will soon be
completed and placed in commission
on the Southern Pacific western
roads.
