MAKING CRIMINALS OF THE BOYS

An investigation Of the records OF
the Missouri penitentiary recently re-
yealed the fact that there are 435 boys
between the age of 16 and 20 years
confined in that lnstaution. condemned
to spend three or four years In the
company OF horde of degenerates and
professional criminals Golfers
Weekly quotes this from the Kansas
City Times:
II appears that most OF the 435 boys
have been very careless. Usually they
began their mistakes by choosing the
wrong kind of parents. The next mis-
take follows readily. and II the State
finds II out. it means that the boys

The investigation of the primary In
which former Congressman Young was

cency and reform by declaring the prs-
mary null and void, Il was supposed

members of the Democratic rank ana

\ G. o. p. SPLIT
IN NEW HAMPSHIRE

Concord, N H. Sept 5.-With the
wind-up today Of the campaign for
the direct primary election, this rock
ribbed republican state is torn by
actional troubles as never before.
Ellis, the regular candidate for the
republican nomination for governor,
is opposed by Robert F. Bass, as the
standard bearer of the New Hamp-
shire "progressives." To what extent
insurgency has gained ground in New
Hampshire will be determined by the
primaries. AS a campaign argument
for Bass, it has been repeatedly al
legged by his supporters that he has
the sympathy of Colonel Roosevelt.
The progressive platform favors re-
ductions in freight rates, with amend
ments to the state constitution, if ne
cessary, to make such decreases pos
sible; the establishment of a public
service commission, similar to that
of New York state; q stringent en-
ployers' liability bill and the prohi-
bition of all political contributions by
corporations and enactment of laws
requiring candidates and parties to
publish complete expense lists.

ARMY ENGINEERS TO
Be At HERM|STON
REPORT FALSE THAT PARTY
HAS BEEN DISBANDED
+. III. Newell, Head OF Reclamation
Service is i'm Project Town Await
ing Arrival of Engineers-Hermis-
ton viii Entertain Visitors.

That the army engineers who are
the irrigation projects have
not disbanded but will be at Hermis-
ton Wednesday is the substance of a
phone message received this after
noon by the East Oregonian from F.
b Swayze of Hermiston. According
to Mr.. Swayze the Hermiston people
received word this morning of the
coming of the board but nothing OF
the story to the effect that the board
has been disbanded.
DR.. F. II. Newell, head of the recla-
nation service. arrived at Hermiston
this morning and is going over affairs.
He will wait at Hermiston until the
arrival OF the army men. The engi-
neers are to arrive in Hermiston on
train No. Wednesday morning. They
will go over the project during the
day and in the evening will be enter
tanned by the people of Hermiston and
vicinity. A delegation of business
men from this city will go down to
join with the Hermistonians in max
ing the engineers feel welcome.
In local circles much interests was
aroused over the report that the en-
gineers had been disbanded. The re-
port caused much speculation and for
a long time anything like definite in
formation upon the subject could not
be obtained. However the report from
Hermiston that the engineers are COM
ing is taken as a refutation of the Sc
attic story.
