PREMIUMS
FOR SCHOOL
EXHIBITS

The premium list for the educa-
tional display for the state fair in
September has just been completed
by County Superintendent Smith
and in its scope it takes in every
thing from the regular work pur-
sued by the pupils in the school
room down to the departments of
cooking and sewing.
The list will now be turned over
to the printer and when a sufficient
number has been printed it will be
sent to the various teachers and
schools throughout the county and
it is the earnest request of Superin-
tendent Smith that the teachers of
all the schools, and the pupils and
parents cooperate in movement to
make the Marion county display the
best on exhibition at the fair.
The list covers practically every
subject pertaining to school work
and liberal prizes are given in each
department. Special emphasis will
be laid on the industrial, woodwork,
agriculture and sewing and cooking
departments, and every effort be
made to make them in every respect
of a superior character. The sewing
and cooking departments are divid-
ed into two divisions-the A divi-
sion which is for pupils Of 12 years
of age and over, and the B division,
which is for pupils under ~ years
of age.
Special prizes are offered by Pres
ident Booth of the state fair board
to the pupils who shall succeed in
winning the most prizes in the dis
play.
The superintendent of the var
ious other counties in the state are
also busily engaged in the prepara-
ton of a premium list and it is pre-
dicted that the educational display
this year will far exceed that of pre-
vious years and that the contest for
prizes in the various departments
will be an exceptionally keen one.

RENO REFUGE or HEAVY
HEARTS and FOOLISH WEDS

Reno, New, April 14.-When
South Dakota amended its residence
requirement from six months to one
year, Nevada sent Reno and Gold
field to the post in the Great Divorce
Stakes as a coupled entry.
Nevada started as a territory with
the loosest divorce laws ever written,
and she didn't change them when
she became a state. Hence Reno is
to the unhappily mated what Mecca
is to the Mohammedan. Matri-
mony's gordian knot is no mystery
here. And what is said for Reno
goes for Goldfield, never heard of
until "Tex" Rickard staged the first
Gans-Nelson fight.
Within the past six months, SO
divorces have been granted by
Judges w. H. A. Pike and John s..
Orr. Fifty-four cases are now on
file. The divorce colony numbers
about $50, with additions coming at
the rate OF SIX a week.
Within the last six months,
women whose names are we'll known
in various ways have been divorced
from undesirable" husbands. The
most prominent are Mrs Frederick
Lewis Colwell, Mrs Keith Donald
son, Mrs. Henry Spies Kip, Mrs. VIM.
Lee Stoddart, Mrs. Elihu B. Frost,
Mrs. Daniel Frohman (who was
Margaret Illington), Mrs. Lucien C.
Shellabarger, Mrs. Raymond G.,
France, Mrs. Claude F. Day and Mrs
George Leeds Zell. The latest
prominent arrival is Virginia Harm
ed Sothern.
Split-'em-asunder lawyers at home
advise fair clients to try Reno when
quick action is wanted. They arm
them with an introduction to local
correspondent and are content that
the mills of the gods and Nevada
Jurisprudence will do the rest.
Reno is cosmopolitan. The petted

STRIKE
AT PULL M AN

Pullman, Wash, April 15.-The
entire student body at the dormitory
of the Washington state college are
on Strike" today because of the
discharge Of G. G. North, student
at the college and prominent mem
Der of the track team, following an
argument between North and the
steward over the quality of food
served in the dorm" An ultima
tum was sent by the students to
the regents a few days ago demand
ing better food and North had been
selected to represent them before
the college officials. 1t was ru
mored that the stewards action was
taken at the suggestion of members
of the faculty and when this became
known all the students, including
walters an dother employees left the
building. The students declare
they will not return until North is
reinstated. President Bryan is en-
deavoring to settle the controversy
today.

one. For my part 1 would like ITO
see it improved and am more than
willing to contribute my share and
the county with its $4,000 popula-
ton or more would not feel the cost
and should have pride enough to see
to it that the jury's recommended
tions were carried into execution"
That the tide of immigration from
the east to the west has commenced
is the consensus of opinion ex-
pressed by the hotel men of the city
and a glance at the hotel registers
and the statements Of railroad men
would seem to bear them out in their
assertion.
There has probably not a day
passed by within the last two or
three weeks but there has appeared
on the hotel registers the names of
people from the far away east, and
the list has materially increased
within the last week. Practically all
of the eastern states are represented
While the cities-the large ones are
contributing to the list, most of the
immigrants seem to be coming from
the country and the small towns.
According to the railroad men the
eastern immigration this year will
be heavier than ever before. They
say that thousands of people are
moving westward and that the ma
jority of them are coming prepared
to make investments and to make a
home. The major portion of them
are influenced to come to the west
because of a desire to secure land
obtain homes-but there are also
many who are coming because it of
fers better opportunities and larger
returns on capital and are looking
for business locations and invest
ments.

The colonists, as the supplicants
are known, live apart from the
Renoites. They have as much
chance to break through society's
barrier as high-grader has of
escaping if caught with the goods.
There is a reason.
A little more than year ago
Margaret llington-Frohman came
here with her mother, to secure the
residence necessary to apply for d.
vorce. She declared she was sick OF
the stage, and wanted to wed for
kiddies and to darn her husbands s
socks. Her ambition was IL chill
dren in 12 years, she said. Society
took up Mrs, Frohman, and no soon
er had her divorce been obtained
than she married, here in Reno, e.
J. Bowes of Tacoma. Society was
shocked, and now divorcee can't
break in with stick of dynamite.

hearts? Read the answer in the

Rather a peculiar kind of archi-
lecture that, said travelling sales
man in the lobby of the hotel Salem
as he took in mental survey of the
Marion county court house.
Il can not say that admire it,,
he continued, "but it is of rather
novel character and not altogether
unattractive, but it certainly belongs
to some other age than the one we
are living in".
Must have gone back to the
Grecian era for it,, was the cynical
comment of another commercial man
and then followed a lull in the con-
veTsation until a newcomer who had
just settled in the country and who
evidently has some progressive ideas
about him chirped in.
''If they went back to the Grecian
era for the exterior architecture"
he began, "they must have gone back
to the dark ages for the interior
design and equipment. I have seen
lots of court houses, he continued,
'but never a court house which was
as crowded as that one and which
was more poorly equipped and had
less accommodations for the county
officers and the public in general.
The grand jury made an inspection
of it during its last session and made
number of recommendations and if
they are followed it will result in
considerable of improvement; but I
am told that similar actions have
been taken by former grand juries
and that the reports have been filed
away and forgotten, and I presume
that this will be the case with this

When the electors of the state
shall have granted the desire of tho
people of Southern Lane and North
ern Douglas counties for the creation
of new county, the pioneers OF that
section have proposed the erection at
Cottage Grove of a statute OF Colonel
James Willis Nesmith, in whose
honor the county will be named, to
commemorate the loyalty and integ-
rity of this illustrious Oregonian who
occupied numerous positions OF trust
from 1845 until the time of his
death in 1880. This would certain
ly be glowing tribute to this sturdy
pioneer OF 1S43.
