Scarcity of help in the Office and a
rush OF advertising and job printing
are responsible for this issue of The
Herald being a little late. We hope
the readers will overlook the delay
and promise that it will not occur
often.
Ivan Putnam is now travelling in
the middle west and Will go as far
as Kansas City He went from Spo-
kane Immediately after the game
with Denver University, and stopped
in Montana, Nebraska and other
points. He is distributing literature

will be absent two or three weeks.
Hugh c. Todd formerly of Pull
man and a graduate of Washington
State College, is in Washington, D..
c., where he is taking a special
course and studying politics at the
national capital. Mr.. Todd wrote
The Herald recently, that he likes
Washington and is enjoying his work.
Hugh is representative in the legis-
lature from this district and his
friends are urging him to enter the
race for senator to succeed Peter
McGregor, who has moved TO Spo-
kane.
J. f. Chaussee, whose children
have been cared for by kind hearted
people of Pullman since their poverty
was discovered, wishes to extend
thanks to all who assisted him and
the children and asks The Herald
to make this announcement. Mr.
Chaussee refuses to permit the
adoption of his children by others
and they have been returned to him,
after being well clothed and cared
for. Several of those who took the
children had planned to adopt them,
feel greatly disappointed, for the
children are bright. intelligent and
loyable and several families became
greatly attached to the children they
had and hoped to keep them until
they reached the age of maturity.
Mr.. Chaussee will try to keep the
children at home and care for them
himself. They are still in need of as
sistance

RIFLE TEAM is AT WORK
Washington State College Team Max
ing Coed Scores and Hopes to
Win Championship

Friday afternoon the gallery team
Of ten of W. S. C.s best marksmen
shot for their first record in a seri es
Of shooting contests which is to last
through the winter.
This series of contests is under the
direction of the National Rifle Associ-
alton of America. All colleges and
Universities have clubs affiliated with
the N. r. A. and are classified as
fourth class organizations.
Until the weather will permit out
door shooting there will be a con
test each week in which each college
team will be matched against one
other college club. This arrange
ment will go on until each college
club has held one contest with each
fourth class club affiliated with the
n. r. A.
There are seventeen colleges and
universities affiliated at the present
time, including the leading educa-
tional institutions of the country.
Among these are represented Har-
ward, Yale, Columbia, Michigan A.
c., Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, University of California and
the University of Idaho. This partial
list shows the interest that target
shooting has created in our educa-
tional institutions.
The w. S. C. rife club has about
100 members at the present time. 1t
is thought more interest will be TAX
en- when the results of the first con
test becomes known.
The scores are telegraphed to
Lieutenant A. e. Jones, Secretary,
N. K. A, Washington, ID. c., immed-
lately after each contest for the as
ISOLATED press.
w. S. G. has but short time in
which to get team together for the
first contest The members of the
club have had but four days in
which to practice. But A. j. Morgan,
range officer, has given such efficient
instruction to the members Of the
club that a team was picked which
m ade a score almost equal to that
made by w. S. C. championship team
of last year. Seven of this years
team were members of the cham
pionship team.
Following is the score made by
w. S. C.s team at their shoot last
week:
For the beginning of the season
such score is very encouraging. Last
year the same score took sixth place
in the championship contest
A tryout will be held each week
which will doubtless result in sew
eral changes in the team before the
final championship contest takes
place

DIARIES ARE INSPECTED
Washington State College Dairy
Ranks High i'm Estimation of
Dairy Inspector

Friday F. H. Bothell state dairy
inspector, came down from Spokane
and inspected the diaries which were
furnishing milk to citizens of Pull
man and the state college dormi-
tories, and he paid high compliment
to the state college dairy, ranking
it first, here and second in the Pa
louise country, being exceeded only
by the Broadview dairies at Rosalia
and Marshall Junction, and the Ell
gin, at Fairbanks. He ranked these
three in the same class, being first
and Washington State College sec
ond This is high compliment when
one considers that Washington State
College has just started it's dairy and
it is less than two months since the
buildings were erected and the ,ws
bought.
On a basis of 100 per cent, being
perfection, Washington State Col
lege was given a percentage of 80. s.
per cent, which is unusually high.
Other diaries here ran as low as 80
per cent. The rating was based on
light and sanitary condition OF build
ings; hHalth of cows, and cleanliness
and care used in the handling OF the
milk. In speaking of the State Col
legc GARY Inspector Bothell said:
Tho new barn, with four feet of
glass to each COW, the separator
house and means for cooling the milk
and holding the cream at a low
temperature, are almost ideal
would advise farmers and dairymen
who content plate building for dairy
purposes to inspect these buildings
and equipment and copy after them
as much as possible"
The Cloyerleaf dairy was given
second place among those supplying
milk here, it's percentage being 65
T. Z. Moore was a close second
Nth so per cent. perfect. Inspector
Bothell announced that farmers and
others furnishing cream to the cream
stations and dalr,es of the state are
required to deliver 1t at least twice
q week, and cream held longer than
that will be condemned.

NEW RAILROAD
FOR PULLMAN
Surveying Parties Now at Work Loo
eating Branch To Connect Us
With Main Line

The Lacrosse Clipper has the fol-
lowing story of railroad operations
in that section Of the country. w.
5. Yearsley, who is mentioned as
having charge of the surveying party.
was formerly at ColfaX and knows
this country as well as any man in it,.
Mr.. Goarsley was one of the men who
selected the route from Rosalia to
ColfaX for the Spokane & Inland EN-
pire electric road. That this line of
road, connecting Pullman with the
main line Of the Hin roads, the Spo-
kane. Portland 4 Seattle or North
Bank road, is soon to be built, adj
mits of little doubt. 1t is certain
that the Northern Pacific will not
continue much longer to haul freight
from the Palouse q Lewiston branch
TO Marshal Junction, thence back to
Connel, or Hooper distance of more
than $50 miles. when it can be haul
ed to Hooper by building new line
molly GO miles long, thus saving 1870
miles OF haul both ways. The Clip
per story follows:
When w. S. Yearsley is seen spend
ing valuable time driving through the
country with party of surveyors it is
safe to assume that there is some
thing doing in the railroad line. II
is no secret in railroad circles that
the S. j. & S. railway has had an eye
on the vast amount Of traffic which
would accrue to that road were a
branch to be built to Pullman Ii
has only been about two years since
the people of Lacrosse were looking
to see new railroad constructed
and at that time the Pullman, La
Crosse d Columbia River Railway
company made a complete survey for
a proposed road and even secured
rights of way,
Whether one of these routes is COLI
templated by the powers that be in
the present interest is problem atical
That the surveyors are making use
of field notes already in their pos
session would indicate that one of
these routes is contemplated
1t is also intimated that the branch
will be built from the main line at
Hooper, running along the river UNI
It'll it reaches our town, thence along
through ColfaX to Pullman. John
Merit, the liYeryman, has been out
again with surveyors the past week
but as mum seems to be the word
with them nothing definite can be
learned, but We who know Yearsley
know that he isn't riding around
with any hot air bunch at this par
ticular season of the year.

PALOUSE PEOPLE HELPED
Chaussee Family Helped by Men and
Women of Palouse, when Mrs.
ChausSee Died

The Palouse Republic republished
the article from last weeks Herald
in regard to the Chaussee family, and
denies the charge that the family
was neglected by Palouse citizens
when Mrs. Chaussee lay dying. The
Palouse Republics statement is here
given:
a rather severe indictment against
the good people of Palouse is implicit
in the last paragraph of the Heralds
story. While The Republic does not
wish to injure Mr. Chaussee in any
way, it is only fair to say that much
# the care which his children and
his sick wife received, was due to
the efforts of the noble Palouse wO-
men. During Mrs. Chaussee's illness
she was waited upon for the most
part by women of the neighborhood
and finaIy taken to the hospital,
where she died. During her illness
and after her death, the women Of
the town furnished clothing for the
children and did sewing for them.
On one occasion meeting was held
at the home of Mrs. w. Wolheter.
where arrangem ents were made to
provide clothing for the children.
The family would have received
more aid, but the father refused, at
different times, to accept aid, or to
allow the children to accept homes

In Foundry

Thomas. A Bryne, who for the
past three years has been in charge
of the college foundry, was found
dead Tuesday morning in the me-
chanical building.

employed in the Tacoma Northern
Pacific foundry and afterwards in
the Union Iron Works of Spokane.
He leaves a widow in Pullman and
relatives in Spokane.
The funeral was held Thursday
at II o'clock. The college closed
during the afternoon out of respect
for Mr.. Byrne, who had made many
friends during the three years of
his stay in Pullman. This is the first
death in the college in a long time
and has cast pail of gloom over The
bic institution.

G. II. KEGLEY CoMPLIMENTED
Official Organ Of National Grange
Pays High Compliment to WASH
ington Master

The last issue of the National
Grange Official Organ. a newspaper
devoted to the interests of the Ma
tional Grange, which held its last
session in Des Moines, Iowa, last
month. pays the following tribute to
c. b. Kegley, formerly Of Pullman:
From the Far West
We hear much about the wild west
and naturally associate certain
roughness with men who come from
that section. This Is not the case,
however, with c. b. Kegley, who is
state master of the Washington
Grange. At the same time Mr. Keg
ley is a fine representative of the far
west. He belongs to that class of
men who are pioneers and he has
done his full share in building up
that magnificent young state. Mr..
Kegley is a man of very strong char
acter and positive opinions. No OPP
position can swerve him a hair s
breadth from what he considers to
be right and just. His opinions are
carefully formed. but when once fix
ed he is very determined in sustain
ing them. He is one of the ablest
debaters in the order and usually
takes an active part in discussing
great questions which concern its
welfare. By his side sits Mrs. Keg-
ley, who likewise is very marked
character. and a general fayorite in
the convention. Together they own
a whole half section of land near
the town of Palouse. which Is con-
sidered the best wheat growing sec
ton in the west. SO closely has Mr..
Kegley been identified with the
growth of the order that he may well
be called its father in that state. lie
has the whole-souled, hearty and hos
pitable style so characteristic of the
far west, and as well might be ex-
pected he has made host OF friends
in the order. He is believer in the
west and its destiny. Such men are
natural pioneers and their influence
is indelibly stamped on any commun-
ity where they may reside. Partieu-
larly is this the case with Mr.. Keg-
ley, and his influence in the state OF
Washington is widespread and Will
be enduring

and he has done grand work there.
Following so strong a man as Pro-
lessor Elliott was no easy task, but
Professor Severance filled the posi-
ton with honor and credit to him
self, his friends and to the school.
He has promised to furnish The Her
aid with some interesting articles
after he takes up his new duties.
These, We know, will be full of in
terest and information, for Profess
sor Severance is a good writer and
close observer and his articles. as
well as his talks, are filled with
good sound, sense and valuable in

FARMERS
UNION
HERE
OFFICERS
Executive Committee and State or
GERS Hold Business Meeting In
Pullman

Monday and Tuesday of this week
the state officers and the executive
committee of the Farmers Educa-
uonal and Cooperative Union held
a session in Pullman at which vast
amount of business pertaining to the
union was transacted The matter
OF continuing the sales agency for
farm products at Seattle was discus
sed and IL was decided to not only
continue but to enlarge this line of
work. Reports show that the agency
has been a great factor in advancing
prices of grain and local unions have
asked that the agency plan of handl-
ing farm products be extended to in
clude live stock, hay and other pro-
duce from the farms.
Those present at the meeting were:
l.. {. Crow, of Palouse, president of
the state union; George l.. Reid, of
Spangle, state organizer; p w. Cox,
of ColfaX; Y, c. Mansfield, of Endi-
colt; w. b. Davis, of Lind; H. RI. Nc
Lean, of Walla Walla; and e. Mel
son, of Nezperce, all members of the
state executive committees; George
Sievers, of Moscow; o. d. Stevens,
VI nay anu q. VI, ElHOll, Oh COlldAs
The meetings were held at the Aries
ian hotel parlors and occupied Mon
day and Tuesday. with a night ses-
sion Monday night.
Colfax Rebuked
The state executive committee took
occasion to hand one" to Colfax as
a rebuke to that town for having
gone wet" at the recent local OPP
ton election, The question Of the
place for holding the next state con-
vention was taken up and Colfax and
Occur d'Alene were placed in nomi-
nation. The first vote stood a tie,
three to three. Mr.. Mansfield re-
minded the committee that Colfax
had voted to retain saloons over the
protest of the farmers and after the
latter had signed pledges to not
trade in town that had saloons,
and he asked that Occur d'Alene,
which went dry at the local OPP
ton election held in Idaho, be CIV
en- the convention. The next vote
was unanimous for Occur d'Alene.
As the convention will probably be
attended by $500 visitors and they
will spend week, the loss to Col
fax is quite heavy The farmers
were we'll pleased at having this OPP
portunity to show ColfaX, in an un-
mistakable manner, that they re-
sent the turning down of their eff
forts to put the town dry.
A call was issued by President
Crow while he was here, for a mass
meeting of members of the Farm rs'
Union to be held at Walla Walla, on
January II, 8 and 10, for the pur-
pose of transacting a great amount
of business of Importance to the or
der. 1t is planned to make this mass
meeting a great rally for the order.
