COLUMBIA COLLEGE.
Work Progresses Despite the Recent
Destructive Fire.

Columbia, Oct. 1S.-Work at Co.
lumbia College is progressing well
and the classes are cared for as
though there had been no destructive
fire. AS is known the trustees OF the
institution leased the Colonia hotel

the patrons that all applicants would
be accommodated.
The college has found it necessary
to rent in addition to the hotel, the
Van Metre residence just across the

as large as could be desired.
In the meantime a large force of
men are at work out at College Park
getting things in shape preparatory
to rebuilding the school. 1t is ex-
pected that the college will be back
in a new building at the beginning OF
the next session.

BANK GUARANTY Law INVALID.
Nebraska Governor Deplores Decis.
ion of Two Federal Judges.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 1S.-1n state
ment on the action of two federal
judges who yesterday declared the
Nebraska bank guaranty law uncon-
stitutional, Governor Shallenberger
deplores the ruling as smacking, he
says of partisanship, and what he be-
lieves is distinct blow at remedial
state legislation. Gov. Shallenber-
ger declares that the reference of the
case to the federal instead of the
state judiciary is usurpation OF pow
er. He says in part:
"The decision is exactly what those
who for partisan or selfish reasons
are opposed to any effective guaranty
of deposits law desired. 1t goes to
the very heart of the question and de-
MES the right Of the state to require
the banks, which exist by virtue OF
their charters to pay certain tax
to create a guaranty fund or to pre-
scribe a form and manner under
which the banking business shall be
conducted. 1t appears to leave bank
ing no more a matter for public legis-
lation or Limitation than the grocery
or butcher business.
"The law which has been set aside
by the decree of the court was
fraught with great benefit to the peo-
pie. 1 am sure that the people desir-
ed the legislation and were anxious
to see it put into actual practice. One
result of the notification OF legisla-
ton by the courts would be to tnten-
sify the desire and determination that
our state supreme court shall not be
longer constituted wholly of mem
bers of one political party. 1t might
be noted in passing that the distin'
guished democrat of this state, who
was made a federal judge by reVer-
ed republican president, was not call
ed into judgment upon this case.
"The overthrow of legislative en-
actments, by Interference by the ex-
ecutive, by the use of patronage, or
the veto power, and by the nullifica-
ton of laws by our courts, has steadi-
ly rendered to degrade the power OF
the executive branch of our govern
ment, and to make it thing for poll
ticians and lobbyists to play with. u

he has no arms, William Kilton was
arrested at Blomsburg, near here,
charged with assault and battery and
fighting, and was held in $500 bail.
Grover Leiby, the complainant,
showed several bruises and marks OF
the encounter, alleging that Kilton
struck him with the stump of his
right arm, which is only few inches
long, kicked him and pushed him.
Kilton said that he thought Leiby
was one of the several men who have
been teasing him, and added that
while he could not fight the whole
crowd he was not afraid of any one

Plans Steamship Line.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 19.-The pros
pective establishment of a direct
steamship line between this city and

to-day by the transportation commit
tee of the chamber of commerce. 1t is

cotton mills of New England. The
line will be operated by the Clyde

steamers used will be comparatively
new vessels.

"The Mills of the Gods.

On Saturday, May s, at the Ore
gon theater, this New York Astor
theater success will be produced with
the metropolitan cast and production
that made It a hit.
This company, under the manage
ment Of Mr.. Ernest Shutter, is max
ing a tour of the large western cit
les, and is creating most favorable
comment, both on its merits as a play
and on the enterprise of the manage
ment in giving the west such an ex-
pensive and elaborate cast and pro-
duction.
The author Mr.. George Broad
hurst, is we'll known as the writer Of
THE Man of the Hour" one OF the
greatest successful dramas of the
century, and this Is another American
drama of the present day on the same
order. and It is doubted II Mr.. Broad
hurst's prolific pen has ever reached
greater heights of dramatic achieve
ment than in this present play.
The company, numbering 30 peo-
pie, is exceptionally capable and have
been chosen for their respective fit
ness to the characters they portray
The massive production requiring
a special baggage car to transport,
is most complete and is regarded by
many critics as certainly the most
costly and artistic Of any ever before
seen in the west.

FREE POULTRY COURSE
TO BE GIVEN AT o. A. c

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor.
Wallis, Ore.,-Professor James Dry
den, head of the department of poult-
ry husbandary, has just issued his
first bulletin to Breeders Of Chick
ems" 1t is a small eight-page PAM
phlet in the form Of reading lessoiI
and contains questions and blanks for
answering for those that care to take
up the course. AS something OF inter-
est and instruction to poultry breed
ers, it has never had an equal in this
state.
Professor Dryden first shows what
a wonderful industry the poultry busi-
ness is then takes up the different side
of actual poultry raising. He says:
"The United States last year was less
than the products of the hens. These
products-poultry and eggs-were es-
timated by government officials as
worth over $500, 1000 in 1908. The
poultry products of Oregon last year
were worth enough to pay all the ap-
preparations made by the last legisla
ture for two years.
He then takes up the classes of poul-
try and shows which is the best for
egg breeding, for meat breeding, gene
raj purposes, ETC., shows which is the
most profitable from the money stand
point, gives description of the differ
ent varieties of breeds and some gen.
eral advice as to the selecting OF
chickens.
The bulletin is gotten out through
the department Of college extension,
and any one wishing to enroll in the
course may do so free of charge by
sending in their name at once.
