NO MORE DRIVES
ON GRAND RONDE
LOGGING WILL NOW
BE DONE BY TRAIN.
For 20 Years the Spring Log Drive of
the Grand Ronde River Has Been
Big Event-Hundreds OF Skilled
Drivers Have Found Employment
There Each Year-Fifteen-Mile
Railroad Now Supplies Logs for
Perry Mills.

This season for the first time in 20
years there will be no log drive for
the Perry sawmills on the Grand
Ronde river. Hereafter the logs for
the seasons run will be hauled from
the Blue mountains by trains.
The company now has about 2,00O,-
600 feet in the dam at the mill,
which were run down during the high
water of the fall months, but this
was perhaps the last drive that will
ever be attempted on the Grand
Ronde river.
For 20 years the annual spring
log drive from the Blue mountains
down the Grand Ronde has been the
most important industrial event in
the mountain districts. Hundreds of
skilled log drivers from all over the
Pacific coast have made Perry and
Hilgard their objective point in the
spring months and for two and three
months braved the waters of the river
In bringing down miles OF logs for the
big mills at Perry.
Now this work will be done by a
railroad train which will be kept in
service ev"ry month in the year. The
log road has been built up the river
for Is miles and will be extended
every season as the supply of logs be-
comes scarcer.
large number of teams are now
employed in banking out the logs at
the dumps along the railroad and en-
ployment of several hundred men is
still furnished by the logging indus
try in the mountains as well as at the
Perry mills.
The mills will start this year about
February Is, month earlier than
usual, because a supply of logs will
be on hand through the operation of
the railroad.

Kaneko is $50 Sorry"

Toxic, Feb. 2.-"As sincere friends
of America we cannot but regret that
San Francisco officials should have
chosen innocent children for effect
ing their political ends" said Baron
Kaneko, member of the japanese
house of peers, who recently visited
the United States to study political
economic conditions. Not soul
ever thought the San Francisco af-
fair would endanger the friendship of
both nations. Japan owes too much
of her progress. to America. The
question is a local one and not en-
dorsed by the American people, a
statement confirmed by the presidents
message, which is the greatest docu-
ment since Washington's farewell"

Wrecker Here Today.
Foreman ]. H. Watson, of the me-
chanical department of the o. r. &
~. arrived last night with the large
steam wrecker and left this morning
with a large crew of men to replace
the derailed cars on the track at
Barnhart.
The cause of the derailment was a
mass of loose rock washing under
the cars as the train passed. Small
rocks to the depth of about four feet
were washed down upon the track,
lifting one car bodily from the rails
and derailing several wheels on 9TH
ers. The work of removing the rock
was very slow and tedious owing to
the small size of them.

Washington, Feb. 2.-The presi-

the California school officials, claim
ing the main board of education of
San Francisco did not act within the
law of the state in passing the reso-
luton of expulsion. 1t appears the
board acted under section 1862 of the
civil code of California, which en-
powers the board to exclude Mon

claims the japanese are not Mongo-

Stockton. Feb. 2.-Heavy rains are
falling in the San Joaquin valley and
all streams are rising. 1t is feared a
large section of the valley will be
overflowed by Monday and guesday.

New York, Feb. 2.-Bernard Gerst-
man, aged 80 years, married, was Sc
lected as the twelfth juror at 4:37 p.
m. yesterday, and court adjourned
till Monday morning.
Thaw's ATTIC ueys are ready to be-
gin their pr issntation of the case.
The states ,ttorneys conferred with
Thaw's thii tmorning, Hartridge, Pea
body an,f O'Reilly being present. 1t
is not sepfed who will make the open
ing statement.
Upon leaving, Peabody said he
found his client in good health and
spirits. He said, IF the state closes
Monday morning as Jerome intimated,
the defense will be ready to go on i'm
mediately after recess.
Peabody denied the report that
Thaw will take the stand in his own
behalf. I'VE will not cross that
bridge until we arrive at it," he said.
1t is evident the defense thinks
they have been too lenient with Je-
rome in the matter of excusing jurors.
Peabody says he thinks the Jurors Je-
rome most desired excused remained.
Garvin spent today in final review
of the case. being closeted for hours
with various witnesses for the state.
Evelyn visited her husband over two
hours.
From the fact that Thaw's counsel
have closely questioned the talesmen
as to any prejudice against the de-
fense of insanity, it is generally con-
ceded that the plea of emotional in
sanity will be the main reliance Of the
defense. This will probably lead to
cross-questioning of the states wit
nesses, in which event the conclusion
OF the states direct testimony may
take longer than is anticipated

Hereafter those who desire to file
coal declaratory statements or TO make
entries under the coal land laws must
appear in person at the local land Of
fee and take the oaths before the reg
lister or receiver. Under the new regu'
lations declaratory statements are not
assignable. This requirement will pre-
vent the hiring of Tom. Dick or Harry
to make q coal declaratory statement
in the interests OF q corporation OF
course either Tom, Dick or Harry may
make entry Of coal land and thereaf-
ter transfer 1t to any person, corpora
ton or syndicate. 1t Is provided that
lands known to contain workable veins
of coal may be sold by registers and re
ceivers at prices stated in schedules
and maps to be furnished them, but 1t
Is not probable the minimum price
will be less than ten dollars per acre,
nor the maximum price o than
twenty dollars per acre. depending up
on the quality Of the coal and the loca-
ton as to transportation facilities.
Another important change requires
publication for thirty days before coal
lands will be passed to flEal receipt
and patent. Notices are also required
to be posted upon the land and in the
United States and office for the dis
trict in which the land is situated.
