COLLEGE OPENS TOMORROW
Will Begin Years Work With Large
Enrolment of Students.

Dallas College will begin its eleventh
year of work tomorrow. The opening
exercises will be held in the chapel at
10 o'clock in the morning and the pub
lie is most cordially invited.
The students will miss President c.
A. Mock, who will spend another year
at Yale to complete his work. Acting
President Winter will also be absent,
as he is now in the East to attend the
general conference of his church. He
will return to his work about Novem-
Der l.
Acting President Winter has almost
completed a canvass for the endow-
ment of the college. In his campaign
he succeeded in raising the endow-
ment of the school to $4,000, which
was a condition upon which he is as
sured that at least Like amount will
be given to this fund by the church in
the East One purpose of his present
trip is to see that this assurance. is
made good.
The other instructors will all be in
their accustomed places, except Mrs.
Wright who, owing to i'll health, will
not resume her work in vocal music
and dramatic art. Mrs. Eta Weaver
Carter will again take charge of the
art department which place she ac-
ceptably filled during the first years of
the college.
The prospect is good for full en-
rollment of students Most of the for
mer students will return and some
new faces will be seen among the
group which will meet to begin the
work of the new year. The organiza-
ton of high schools will detain for a
time some who otherwise would en-
large the student body at this time.
But most of these will come later,
when they are more fully prepared to
enter upon the work of the college.
Mrs. Cummings, formerly of Cor
Wallis, will have charge of the dormi-
tory and the young people of the col
lege may expect to have their physi-
cal needs well supplied.

SEEMS LIKE USELESS WORl
Little Interest Shown by Voters In
Proposed New Laws.

Numerous readers of the Observer
have asked us recently why we do not
print an outline of the proposed meas
ures to be voted on in November and
at the same time give an editorial
opinion as to the merit, or lack of mer-
it, of each. AS this newspaper has been
doing this very thing for the last two
or three months, these requests make
it evident that few of our readers
have read what we had to say Is II not
a fact that the average reader is too
busy, or thinks he is too busy, with
his own affairs to give much time to
study of these proposed laws and
amendments?
The Observer would be only too will
ing to devote any amount OF time and
space necessary to a proper explana-
ton of these measures il IL could but
be made to know that it's subscribers
would read what il might say about
them. But under the circumstances,
such task would seem discouraging,
II not useless.
However, we shall grant the request
of these subscribers and give the voters
as much information as we are able to
obtain about each measure. We might
say in advance, that our advice on
most of the proposed laws will be to
vote No.

GOOD WORDS FOR M'CAMANT
Doctor Withycombe Resents Attacks
on Honest and Capable Man.

CDR. Withycombe in Corvallis Times.)
There are times when one finds it
difficult to hold his peace This is my
condition at present, and 1 ask your
indulgence for a brief space to enter
protest against the unwarranted at
| tack upon Mr.. Wallace McCamant. 1t
has been my pleasure to know Mr.. Nc
Camant for a number of years, and
know him as an able lawyer, states
man, scholar, and above all, a
Thorough gentleman. He has been a
citizen of this state for a number Of
years and his life among us has been,
as it We're, an open book without a
blemish upon a single page. AS law
yer he is the equal of any in the North
west and always found unswervingly
faithful to his clients.
Many of our citizens will doubtless
remember his eloquent and inspiring
address at the decoration exercises in
this city some two years since. This is
thoroughly characteristic of the man.
His voice has been heard all over the
commonwealth in behalf of civic right
eousness and higher ideals of civiliza-
ton. He is a man of sterling integrity
and absolutely fearless to do that
which he thinks is right, regardless of
public criticism. can assure your
readers that if Mr.. McCamant is nom
mated and elected to the high Office
to which he aspires, he will bring
strength and honor to the supreme
bench of Oregon.

BETTER THAN LAST YEAR
Hops in Independence District Better
In Quantity and Quality.

From reports from many of the
leading hop growers it is evident that
the hops of this section are superior
to the crop of last year, in both quail
ity and quantity, says the Independence
Enterprise. Krebs Bros. will harvest
about 1900 bales. G. A. McLaughlin's
yard will yield 100 bales, which is 800
less than last year. His hops suffered
considerably on account of the dry
weather.
w. w. Percival has the best yield
of any of the large yards. He has sixty
five acres which will average about
$500 pounds to the acre. Mr.. Damon
has a three-acre yard that will pro-
duce 1000 pounds which is the best
record of any of the yards reported.
Only a few yards have finished pick
ing. 1t lis safe to say that the yards of
j. H. Burton, Horst Bros, Walker
Bros, Davidson & Hedges ]. e. Hub
bard, Sloper & Patton, and a number
of others will yield more than last
year.

LOSES HEAVILY BY FIRE
Sheridan Lumber COmpany's Camp at
Cedar Creek Is Destroyed.

The Sheridan Sun gives the follow
ing account of the recent destruction
by fire of the Sheridan Lumber Com
panys logging camp in the Mill Creek
mountains:
The most damaging result of a for
est fire in this immediate vicinity was
the burning of the Cedar Creek log
ging camp of the Sheridan Lumber
Company, Monday. This camp is To-
Gated near the junction of Mill and
Cedar creeks in Polk county, some fif-
teen miles southwest of Sheridan, and
was a hustling, busy place employ
ing 80 to As men. 1t consisted of a new
cook house 20x54 feet just completed,
three bunk houses, foreman's resi-
dence, COW barn, supply house, and
blacksmith shop and an expensive
dam. Contained in the buildings was
practically all the winters supply of
feed and provision. All of this was
destroyed except the barn, dam and
blacksmith shop.
This fire was caused from the one
started near there accidentally two
weeks ago by sparks from the donkey
engine. At that time the high wind had
taken the burning mass and scattered
it high up the ridge, creating a ground
fire of the ferns and underbrush that
could not be prevented from spread
stamp it out, but it gradually worked
itself over the ridge to Pine creek, and
during the high wind Monday the
flames were famed into renewed life
and coursed down Pine creek to Mill
creek and thence up to the logging
camp. 1t was impossible to stop the
fire and the loss of the camp resulted.
The area burned over is estimated
at two thousand acres, with a loss of
perhaps a half million feet of logs in
the Jam and river. The fire was simply
a ground one and but little damage
was caused to standing timber. In
some particulars the fire was bene-
fit, in that it cleared the ground of the
underbrush and decayed timber. Some
loss will be occasioned by the fire eat
ing into the ends of the logs lying up
on the ground and this can only be
stopped by rains.
Both fires were the result of natural
conditions that could not be avoided
and were not the result of careless
ness on the part of employees, and no
blame is attached to anyone by the
company The actual monetary loss to
the company will be quite heavy. being
principally on provisions, of which
there were several thousand dollars
worth on hand, and the buildings and
logging tools, but no estimate of the
amount has been made.

BENSON WILL BE WELL
Condition 100 Per Cent. Better Than
Week Ago-WilI Soon Return.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15-Gov-
ernor Frank w. Benson, of Oregon,
when seen today in the Office of his
physician, DR.. George Culver, said to
a representative of the Oregonian that
he expects to leave for his home after
visit relatives in San Jose. Governor
Benson has improved rapidly, but it
was on the advice of his physician that
he decided he would not go to Oregon
for the present primaries.
The Governor has also secured from
DR.. Culver the following signed state
ment as to his condition and his i'm
provement. The report which covers
his case in detail, is as follows:
81 have seen Governor Benson at my
The local condition is steadily and rap
idly improving and his physical con-
dition is practically 100 per cent bet
ter than it was one week ago which
means a great deal, as he has been
making steady progress for the last
two months.
"Our only reason now for keeping the
Governor here is to get him in such
shape that he will be physically equal
to any amount of strain that may be
put upon him when he goes back to
his work.
'The many reports in reference to
his eyes being in danger are all false,
undoubtedly as they have been for
years. The fact is Governor Benson is
getting well and is getting well rapidly,
and he is going to be a perfectly well
man, fully capable of holding the
most difficult position.
