No Pomp For Wilson.

Trenton, n. j., Jan. 1I.-Devoid of
much of the pompt and show which
marked such ceremonies in past years,
the Inauguration of DR.. Woodrow
Wilson as governor of New Jersey to-
day was characterized by democratic
simplicity. There was no parade,
and the induction into office of the
former president of Princeton Uni
versity included merely the formal
taking of the oath, delivery of the in
augural address in Taylor's opera
house. a luncheon at the Hotel Stir
ling and reception to the public at the
state house.
Governor Wilson's inaugural ad-
dress was largely a repetition of the
principles of real democracy which
he expounded during the campaign
Democratic leaders from all over the
state attended the ceremony and in
formally banded themselves together
in a Wilson for president" commit
tee. 1t is understood that from now
on the friends and admirers of the
new governor will bend every energy
toward securing for DR.. Wilson the
democratic presidential nomination
in 1912.

In a phone message to the East
Oregonian this afternoon Ralph Wat

West said:
Governor Vests message relat-
ing to the eastern oregon branch asy-
lum, in which he asked that a special
legislative committee of five be nam
ed to cooperate with a committee
OF five named by the state board has
not yet been fully acted upon by the
legislature. In each house "a resolu-
ton was introduced providing for the
appointment of such committees
Those resolutions were referred to the
resolution committees and at 3 O'Clock
they have not been reported back to
the house and senate. / believe that
the resolutions will be adopted as
there seems no opposition. l under
stand that Bowerman has said that he
Will not oppose the resolutions in the
senate"
That no move is on to take the
eastern Oregon branch asylum from
Pendleton is plain from private infor-
nation received by local people, from
a public interview given yesterday by
State Treasurer T. b. Kay. and from a
reading of the message sent the leg
islature by Governor West yesterday.
Evidently the governor and treas
urer both consider the asylum as hav-
ing been definitely located at Pen
dleton. But they do want to secure
a better building site if possible than
can be found on the Oliver-Carpenter
site, So they have asked for author
ity TO purchase more land and also
for a committee to investigate the site
and make recommendations.
From Engineer Murphy.
Engineer Charles A. Murphy, who
has been here investigating different
building sites west of the city stated
today that he has already submitted
TO the board a report covering five
different prospective sites. OF these
sites one is entirely new 1t is the

and an option upon that property has
also been secured by the state, al
