OF
POLICY HOLDERS
IN PACIFIC LIVE STOCK
ASSOCIATION ILLEGAL
According to Attorney General AtlSin-
son of Washington, an Attempt to
Do So Will be FTaud-He Regrets
Any Straits the Company May Find
Itself In, But VIII Protect Present
Policy holders.

Olympia, Aug. 26.-Attorney Cen
eral Atkinson, on having his atten-
tion called to an interview of the Of
ficers of the Pacific Livestock asso-
citation of Spokane, said:
"All matters relating to the insur,
ance department have generally been
assigned to my assistant A. j. Falk-
nor, and have no intention of modi-
flying or reversing any opinion given
by Mr.. Falknor relative to an assess
ment attempted to be made upon the
policyholders of the Pacific Live
Stock association. / have independ-
emily looked into the law relative to
such assessment, and the bylaws of
such association incorporated I'm the
policy. In the policies by the asso-
citation is an express provision that
the policyholders, after payment of
the stipulated premium, should not
be under any further obligation what
ever.
"The law provides that the trustees
may by laws so limit the liability of
its policyholders. The trustees hav-
ing passed such bylaw, and the same
having been solemnly incorporated in
their policy, It would be little short
Of fraud for the company thereafter
In violation of such express provision
Of the policy, to attempt to levy
against the policy holders an assess
ment to meet the unpaid losses of the
company.
at is unfortunate If the premiums
collected by the company have not
been carefully preserved so as to meet
the losses, but having failed to be so
preserved, the company ought not
not now to be permitted, in violation
of the express provisions of its poll
cies, to compel the policy holders to
dig up for unpaid losses.
"As to the question OF the appoint
ment of the receiver, in view Of the
cancellation of the certificate by the
insurance commissioner ON the ground
of insolvency, I see no reason why
any creditor of the concern can not,
of his own motion, bring about the
appointment of a receiver"

MONMOUTH AND
DRAIN N0RMALS
FORMER WILL CONTINUE,
LATTER PROBABLY WILL
Regents VIII Elect Faculty for
Monmouth at Once, All the Re-
Quirements Having Been Met
There Is Yet Uncertainty Relating
to the Drain School, But Its Friends
Are Hustling Private Donations.

Salem, Aug. 26.-The normal
school at Monmouth will continue
This was definitely established yes
terday at p. m, when President
Ressler deposited $4,000 with the ex-
ecutive committee of the board of re-
gents to be used in conducting the
school during the first half of the
year.
This sum was raised by absolute
donations, and all moneys received
from tuition and other sources will
be to the good. The tuitions alone
amount to $4,000, and this makes
$4,000 in sight. As $4,000 will be suf-
ficient to run the school, there will
be no difficulty. This money has been
raised by contributions from the citi-
zens of Monmouth and by the alumni
and other friends of the school.
A meeting of the board OF regents
will be held in the near future for
the purpose of electing a new facul-
ty for the school. The election by
the last board of regents is held 10
be void, as 1t was done when the
school had not the right to exist
What the new faculty will be is not
known, but it will probably contain
part, If not all of the members of
the old one.
This ends the Monmouth contro-
versy. While Drain has not yet COM
piled with conditions. appearances
seem to indicate that 1t will also run.
1t is probable that the Drain nor
NAL school will continue for the citi-
zens of Drain anticipating the recent
action of the state board of regents,
have pledged funds for the conduct
ing of the institution. In recent in
terview at Roseburg, Professor o. c.
Brown, vice president of the normal
school at Drain, stated that there was
sufficient money already at hand to
carry on the work Of the school for
the coming year.
The Umpqua Valley News says: In
conversation with News reporter
the normal school at Drain, stated
today that enough money was already
on hand to carry out the work for
the coming year. The citizens OF
Drain have made ample provisions
for any obstacles that may arise in
connection with the continuance of
the Drain normal and no matter what
action is taken by the states authori-
ties the school will go ahead and
continue to run. The school is rec
ognized as a state normal institution
and there is little doubt but that 1t
will receive its share Of support from
the state at the next session OF the
legislature
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-08-26

With rush that was unprecedent-
ed in this county the wheat market
opened up Saturday and 1t is now es-
timated close to 100000 bushels Of
this years yield have been sold. or
that amount million bushels or more
bushels changed hands between FRI
day afternoon and Saturday evening,
the prevailing price being 10 cents.
Until the latter part of last week
the local wheat market had been
dead, though some selling had oc-
CURED from time to time. During
the week &C cents was quoted for
club and it was evident that the grain
companies did not want wheat then.
Just what brought on the advance i'm
the quotation is best known to the
brokers themselves. Local buyers say
some ships were but recently charter
ed and that their houses needed grain
with which to load them. At any
rate the price advanced with a Jump
and scores of farmers were found
ready to sell. That the entire crop
of the county was not sold Saturday
was seemingly due to the fact that
such was physical impossibillty. /.
While 1t is difficult to ascertain the
exact extent of the selling Saturday,
the buyers all assert that it was the
largest days business ever transacted
here and that the total sales were
close to a million bushels. Seeming
ly the grain was we'll divided among
the various buyers, for all declare
that they "got their share" The
mills both here and at Athena were
also heavy buyers and the selling was
not confined to any particular section
of the county.
Sope of the individuals who dis
posed of part or all of their Yields
were Louis Anderson, Weber &
Wright, Marion Jack, Grant Earhart,
Charles Carpenter, Peter Geiss, Hen
ry Taylor, George Peringer, Ben Ogle
of Athena, who is said to have sold
$4,000 bushels; Frank Richmond,
10000 bushels; Charles Campbell.
Gerking Bros. and William Scott.
This forenoon the phone wires
were down between here and Port
land, and no prices had been receiy-
ed by the local buyers.
