SECURES NEW POSITION
ofossor L. r. Traver Is Chosen
Superintendent of Corvallis
Schools.

nao,oosorL R. Traver, for a num-
In Of wears principal OF the training
Sspartment of the Monmouth stare
rarr,al School has accepted the posi-
" 80 ennerintendent of the Corvallis
*ohools for the coming year. 1t is
IN likely that Mr.. Traver would have
IN eidered the change had it not been
III the unsettled condition OF the nor
|nal school situation at present.
Tn mentioning the selection OF the
om sunerIntendent by the Board OF
Fdncation in Corvallis, the Corvallis
STlmes pays Mr.. Traver the following
h;oh and we'll merited compliment:
@Refore taking charge of the work
In the Normal, Mr.. Traver was at the
head Of the Pendleton schools and at
|some time during his career was sup
|arintendent of Salem's schools. The
'leading educators OF the state concede
hat he is the strongest man in the
.state in his line. and Mr.. Traver comes
i corvallis with hearty endorsements
from Superintendent Ackerman and
others of highest repute. The Board
considers that the city is more than
Fortunate in securing the services OF
this able man.
"There is nothing In this change
that reflects upon Superintendent
Fulkerson, the present head OF the
Corvallis schools. Mr.. Fulkerson's
work has been satisfactory and at no
time has there been friction between
himself and members OF the board. de
enioyed their respect and has had their
hearty support. But the opportunity
10 secure Mr.. Traver was not to DC
passed by. Mr.. Fulkerson himself
readily comedies the exceptional abil
ity of the man selected by the board,
and thoughhe would have been pleasee
to stay here longer, he expresses con
Adence that the board acted wisely.
Though six or eight applications fol
the superintendency were sent to the
board, it is safe to say that only tina
of Mr.. Traver would have tempted the
board to make any change at thli
time"

BUY FARM In POLK COUNTY
Party of COlOnists From North Dakota
Will Settle on Yocom Farm
Near Sheridan.

A good insight into the quality of
substantial and progressive citizen
ship, which we are receiving through
the present colonist movement. is
given 10 the following article from the
Sheridan Sun, concerning party OF
colonists who last week purchased
fine tract Of farming land in Polk
county
A party of gentlemen were here last
week from North Dakota for the pur-
pose of selecting suitable homes in
this section of the state where the
climate is agreeable, the soil pro-
ductive and the labor and cares OF life
are not onerous. They investigated
the county carefully, not only in the
vicinity of Sheridan but elsewhere,
and were much pleased over the
opportunities presented to the wide
awake, progressive home maker.
In this party were John Botz. John
Botz, Jr., and John Gruber, of Minot,
North Dakota, and for themselves
and Mrs. Baumgardner, also of Minot,
they purchased the Allyn Yocom place
in Polk County. consisting of some
40 acres. This is considered one OF
the choice tracts near Sheridan and is
we'll adapted for fruit culture, and is
also an ideal place for a choice stock
and dairy farm. The price paid was
we'll up In the thousands, but was yet
cheap In comparison with other real
estate values in this vicinity.
These parties will return In October
bringing with them some choice stock
both horses and cattle. All of these
gentlemen are thorough stockmen anc
farmers, and in a conversation witt
Mr. Botz, he said: "Your people dt
not seem to realize the great results
obtainable in conducting systematic
farm where only the best grades o
both cattle and horses are produced
From my observation am confden

improvement in values" Mr.. Bot
said: "We are not changing location

AMBASSADOR A COMPLAINANT
FRAUD ORDER AGAINST A CHI
CAGo CONCERN.
Worry to British Lad Through Dun
ming Letters Almost Caused Him
to Commit Suicide.

Following a complaint by the British
ambassador that the practices and meth
DDS of the Erie Manufacturing Company
of o64o West Lake street, Chicago, ILL.,, had
barely missed driving a frantic young
English boy to suicide, the Postmaster
General has issued fraud order against
the concern on the ground that it conducts
a scheme for obtaining money through the
mails by means of false and fraudulent
pretenses.
On investigation the inspector learned
that one e. f. Hansell had been engaged
for several years in selling the trashiest
kind of alleged jewelry, exclusively
through the mails. He advertised to give
free" solid gold-plated watch, equal in
appearance to a thirty-five-dolar gold
watch. to boys and girls or any one selling
twenty pieces Of his handsome jewelry at
10 cents each. When the addressee sent in
name jewelry was to be sent postpaid,
and when sold the 81 was to be sent to
Hansell and the free gold watch would be
forwarded.
Among the complaints was one from the
British ambassador at Washington, in
which it was stated that an English lad
at school in New Jersey had received un-
solicited a package of this alleged jew
elry and had at once returned 1t to the
Erie Company. Nevertheless, the lad
continued to receive threatening duns, un-
til finally. in boyish desperation, he at
tempted suicide, and by the merest chance
he was prevented from accomplishing it.
The inspectors report that the stuff
sold as jewelry is manufactured at Provi-
dence, r. L.. and costs Hansell 81 for
IA pieces. The twenty pieces for which
he receives S. cost him. with the three
cent postage, when mailed to the party
who sells it for him, about Is cents, while
the gold watches which he offered and
only occasionally sent as premiums cost 40
cents apiece,

NEW YORK, November 22.-Confer-
ences of officials and leading counsel fol
the Standard Oil Company were held il

the adverse decision in the governments
suit against the company rendered Sat

Thirty days are allowed before the de-
cree of the court takes effect, and within

In speaking of the decision today John
D. Archbold, vice president of the Stand
ard Oil Company. took an optimistic
view of the situation. He said:
Il believe that the decision will result
in legislation looking toward the repeal
of the Sherman antitrust act. For un-
der that law 1t Is not only impossible for
practically any corporation to transact
business, but even cOpartnerShips may be
attacked | believe that the officials al

the law is too drastic and that even Mr.

at $50 Saturday, and the first sale today
was $50.
