The Tribune has undertaken to
raise funds for some sort OF memorial
tn behalf OF life that was spent
wholly in aiding the sick and the az
ficted. A life like his should not
have passed entirely from the COM
munity with the passing Of his body
TO it's last resting place. Something
to remind the younger generation
that he has lived. and lived well, in
the service of his fellow man. IS

Undoubtedly were he here to direct
and care for it himself. there could
be no better use of the funds to be
raised than in the establishment of
An orphanage. But the practical
conduct of such an institution re-
Quires the services of just such per
son as Father Tisdel himself The
ordinary small orphanage easily b.
comes the vehicle for some inefficient
failure in the guise of a man or
woman to prey upon the public with
their begging schemes, while doinE
no real good and frequently great in
jury to the children placed under
their charge.
The Tribune wants every sugges-
tion that can be had as to the best /
way in which to expend this money .
when raised, as it will be. Write, or
or call, il you have
thought upon the subject.

NORMALS MAY BE CLOSED
Regents Require Deposits Monmouth
Complies and Will Probably Fin
ish Term.

1t is probable that nnless the nor
NAL schools of Oregon make deposits
with the state treasurer from the pri-
vate subscriptions which go toward
their support from the first Of the year
until the close of the present semester,
they will be required to close their
doors on March IL. according to an
order issued by the State Board of
Regents at it's meeting Tuesday under
which no indebtedness may be in
Cured by the institutions.
The Monmouth Normal alone has
made deposit of the money on hand,
about $1,000, with the state treasurer
and in consequence will not come
under the edict of the board and will
probably be allowed to continue its
work until the end of the year.
The presidents of the three normal
schools at Ashland, Weston and Mon
mouth are to be instructed that the
schools are to be operated, if they are
to be operated at all as state normal
schools, under the direction of the
Board of Regents. No indebtedness
must be incurred and no expense will
be authorized, unless a sufficient sum
to cover such expenses must be frs
deposited with the state treasurer
All private donations and subscrip
tions must be deposited under the pro
visions of the resolution made by tn
Board in 1907 which says, in part: Il
is the policy of the board to receive nj
gifts or donations without the expires
understanding and agreement that n
claim will be made on the state
Legislature.

Hon Market Active.

Operations against the future are
being conducted actively by most of
the hop dealers in the state. Last Fri
day, McNeff Brothers closed several
large contracts around Dallas at 10
cents per pound for one year and
a hop contract. including 100000
pounds, the crop for the George L.
Rose 150 acres near Independence,
was signed and filed. The price stip-
ulated is 10 cents and the hops will be
sold to Isaac Pincus & Sons, OF Ia
coma, Washington. This is the largest
hop contract so far drawn up in
this section and the Rose ranch is
famous for its quality. The ranch is
two and one-half miles east of Inde-
pendence.

POlk's State Tax Lowered.

The revision of the state taxes as
made last week by the State Board of
Equalization reduces Polk county's
share of the levy $3,2l7. The amount
originally required was $39,142 while
the amount under the new apportion-
ment is only $35,925. The assessed
valuation Of the property in Polk
county as returned by the County
assessor, was raised by the State
Board of Equalization from $40, ,O75, 900
to $16, ,867, ,377, difference Of Sc, 1872, 377.
The valuation in many of the other
counties was raised considerably
while in others it was reduced, the
heaviest reduction IN valuation being
made in Multnomah county, where it
was lowered nearly SAG, 100000.

Can You Truth
fully Answer Yes!

During the past year have you been
absolutely satisfied with all your gro
ceries-your teas and coffee, your but
ter, canned goods and havoring
extracts?
Can you truthfully answer yes?
These things are all within the con-
troll of the merchant, and as long as
painstaking care is exercised in their
selection, you are pretty certain to get
first class quality and flavor.
We do not claim to be perfection
we are only human and sometimes
make mistakes-but there isn't store
in town that strives more faithfully TO
have its customers absolutely salts
fed. or that will so gladly and quickly
rectify a mistake. We deem 1t
favor to have an error called to oul
attention, and to have any goods re-
turned that are not everything they
should be in quality and freshness.

Returns From Extended Vacation.

J. G. Hayter, former editor and pro-
prietor of the Observer, arrived in
Dallas, Wednesday after an absence
of eight months, during which he
travelled extensively in Colorado, Ari-
zona, Texas, California and other
southern states. This has been prac-
tically the first vacation Mr.. Hayter
has taken in the II years in which ne
has been in the newspaper business.
During his absence Mr.. Hayter took
surgical treatment for the benefit OF
his hearing and, although his cure is
not yet complete, his progress thus fai
has been so encouraging that it seems
probable his hearing will be practlc
ally restored to normal condition IL
the near future. He was met in Los
Angeles by his cousin, Miss Emmf
Dempsey, and together they spent
month touring among the various
points of interest in Southern Cali
fornia before returning to Dallas.

RECEIVES APPOINTMENT
C. L. Starr Is Unanimously Chosen
AS Secretary of the State Tax
Commission.

The Salem Statesman OF Wednes-
days issue contains the following
concerning the recent appointment OF
@. L. Starr to a position as secretary
of the state tax commission.
sc. L. Starr, for the past year and
one-half secretary of the state board OF
normal regents, was yesterday ap-
pointed secretary of the new state tax
commission by unanimous vote OF
the board.
starr is one Of the best known men
In the Willamette valley and as secre-
tary of the board Of regents he has
made a splendid record in building
up beautiful system OF schools. He
had the disappointment of seeing his
work go by the board at single stroke
of the legislature but nevertheless it
is not disputed that through his guild
ance as secretary the schools attained
place as high as any west of the
Rocky Mountains.
"He has an excellent record as al
1
educator, among other positions being
superintendent of schools in Polk
county. He was also editor of the Falls
City News and his varied experiences
give him excellent training for tht
more than arduous duties which come
as perquisites of his new office.
"The board will have another meet
ing in two weeks, when the first actua
work of the commission will be out
lined. 1t is considered that Starr
position is one of the most importan
in the state as the tax commissio
deals with every taxable interest II
Oregon.
"Mr. Starr still retains his place a
secretary of the board OF norma
regents, although there is no salar
attached to the Office. At the meeting
of the board last week at which tn
affairs of the schools were wound uE
Mr.. Starr volunteered his service
without compensation until such tim
as the schools shall be formally dis
posed Of"

E. E. Staats, of Airlie, received from
Kentucky, Thursday, one of the finest
bred, registered coyote or fox hounds
that he could secure in the south. Mr..
Stats is already the owner OF one OF
the best trained packs of coyote
hounds in the state and is recognized
as one Of the most successful coyote
hunters. In the unceasing war that
has been waged against the coyote
pest by the farmers and stockmen OF
Airlie and vicinity, Mr.. Stats hounds
have been almost indispensable and
those who are benefited by them will
no doubt appreciate the recent valu'
able addition that he has made to his
pack.
