CLERKS COUNTING
SCHOOL CHILDREN
Annual Census Being Taken This Week
Under New Law as Basis for
!, January Levy.

The clerks of the 81 school districts of
Wallowa county are engaged in taking
the school census of their respective
districts this week under the new law,
which provides that the annual enum-
Grafton shall be made during the last
week j n November and all persons OF
school age are enrolled according to
where they reside on November 25.
Formerly the school census was
taken during February and the levy be.
ing made, in January it was necessary
to wait year before using the census.
Under the new law the enumeration is
made prior to the January session Of
the county court making the annual
tax levy, and better results are antici-
pated. The levy made next January
will be based on this November census.
| Mrs. Amanda Chenoweth, clerk Of
district 2, Alder, was the first to report,
she finding 43 persons of school age in
that district. This is decrease of Is
since the last er umeration, the falling
off being caused by the removal Ct sew
eral large families of children from tht
district and the coming OF age Of othel
children.

FOG DELAYS OCEAN RACE.
Lusitania In Ocean Speed Test Almost Overhaula Lucania at Queenstown.

Lusitania In Ocean Speed Test Almost
 Overhaula Lucania at Queenstown.
 Queenstown, Ireland, Sept. 1.-The across the seas speed test of the Gu. nard lines new turbine steamer Lust. tania and the incidental race with the older Cunarder Lucania began in fog here, and nine hours after the start from Queenstown the Lusitania had made but 1S0 miles and was moving slowly. The Lucania, which had a start of four hours from Liverpool, was so delayed at Queenstown that when she got away from here she had but fifteen minutes advantage over the giant turbine. ....##
 Probably never before has so much interest been displayed in the maiden voyage of a new vessel. This can be attributed partly to the intense rivalry between England and Germany in the transatlantic passenger traffic, partly to national pride in ownership-the Lusitania Is believed to be the great. est triumph of the shipbuilder's art and to no small extent to the sporting element given the event by the pros. poets of a race between the youngest Atlantic f1ier and the Lucania, st one time the holder of the record

1t the White House for more than two hours and was alone with the presi- dent. The interview between those two eminent men has been variously described by each and disputed by both. MT. Hartman has declared that MT. Roosevelt was most amiable and reassuring. The president has declar- ed that MT. Hartman was more con- cerned in promoting his own ambition to secure seat in the United States senate than he was in trying to learn the presidents views on anything.
 MT. Hartman, however, demanded certain assurances and returned to New York the same afternoon
 Oct. 29.-Harriman called up some friends of Senator Depew on the tele- phone and secured pledges for money; Senator Depew had a two hours talk with Hartman; the senator afterward appeared in the financial district and the street soon echoed with rumors that the president had pledged himself to influence the reelection of Depew and to prove his friendship too for corporations; Hartman and Depew secured between them subscriptions for $260,0O0, Hartman getting pledges for $175,000 and Depew for $S5,O0O.
 A Question of Veracity.
 Oct 31.-Harriman received the money and turned 1t over to Treas urer Bliss, who in turn gave it to Cor telyou; Cortelyou retained $6O,000 to carry out his plans for saving the state and gave the other $200,0O0 to Odell; Odell distributed it among the county and city district leaders; none of the money was expended for tho distribution of literature; neither Odell nor Cortelyou will tell to whom they gave the money or for what it was spent
 Oct. 29.-Judge Parker in a speech said: 'As I have said before, and I deem it my duty to say it again, the trusts are furnishing the money with which they hope to control the cleo tion. I am sorry to be obliged to say it. If it were not true I would not say it to gain the presidency or any earth ly reward"
 Nov. 4.-President Roosevelt, in a statement issued from the White House, said: Certain slanderous charges as to MT. Cortelyou and my self have been repeated time and again by Judge Parker, the candidate of his party. The statements made by MT. Parker are unqualifiedly and atrociously false"

RIOTING IN VANCOUVER.
A British Columbia Mob Throws Eigh
 Japanese Into Sea.

Japanese Into Sea.
 Vancouver, B. O., Sept 11.-Intense excitement continues throughout Brit oriental riots in which Chinatown and the Japanese quarters were raided and damage done approximating $15,OOO in an effort to put out and keep out Asiatics. A further demonstration oc- cured later in which Aikujiro Ishii, chief of the bureau of foreign com merce and head of the Japanese consu- lar service, and Consul Saburo Hisa- midzu of Seattle were mobbed by the rioters.
 In this riot number of people were bruised and injured by broken bottles and flying brickbats in the hands of a frenzied mob. Baron Ishii and Consul Hisamidzu finally made their escape through the mob, and the affair was immediately cabled to Tokyo.
 Coincident with the riot was the ar- rival of steamship having on board at least 500 Japanese. With a con- mon impulse the mob surged to the water front, and as soon as the Japa- nese came down the gangplank they were met by the rioters.
 Eight of the Japanese were uncere- moniously picked up and thrown into BuZzard inlet. The mob also broke loose on Howell street, where the Ja- panese live. Here windows were bro- ken, but the Japanese resisted and with bottles and boards attacked their assailants Several were injured in the counter attacks.

REGULARS WIN IN JERSEY.
Colby or New Idea Republicans Are
 Defeated at Primaries.

Defeated at Primaries.
 Trenton, N. J., Sept. 11.-In Essex county the Colby or new idea Repub. lican reform party lost to the regu, lars in the primaries with the excep- tion of three wards, and the indica. tions are that Justice J. Franklin Fort has defeated Sheriff Frank H. Somme1 of Essex, the Colby candidate, for the nomination for governor Reports from the various counties show that Frank s. Katzenbach, Jr., of Mercer is the choice of the Dem ocrats for governor.
 In Jersey City interest centered in Mayor Mark M. Fagan's fight for re. nomination for a fourth term. He won out with 120 delegates to the city con. vention out of possible 200. This in. dicates to the minds of the new idea men that the term of Colonel Samuel D. Dickinson as leader in Hudson is at an end. The regulars, however, said they would take the fight to the courts The regulars have apparently won throughout the state.

All things connected with the June

Il is quite natural that the bride-to-be
stocks her toilet table afresh.
First she wants a delicate sachet DOW

bureau drawers. A lasting and yet
dainty scent is secured by mixing pow

any floral scent alone.
An excellent lavender powder for the

mixing ten ounces OF dried lavender
