Mr.. T. A. Rinehart, agent of the
state land board, has just returned
from an extended trip into Eastern
Oregon where he has been checking
up the securities of the loans made
from the state school fund. He has
also been investigating the Morrison
escheat case in whoich the supreme
court has decided that the property
of said Morrison, deceased, shall re-
vert to the state.
There is, at the present time about
$5,OO0,00O of the state irreducble
school fund loaned out on real prop
erty in the state and an additional
$1,OO0,00O loaned on school bonds
Mr.. Rinehart reports that most of the
real estate loans are made on suffi-
cient security but that a few are be-
ing recalled, or additional security
demanded, whenever the security is
felt to be insufficient.
This fund originated from the sale
of lands expressly set aside for
school purposes by the federal gov
ernment, when the constitution of the
state of Oregon was approved. 1t
was then stipulated that sections 10
and 36 in each township, as well as
all tide lands, swamp lands and land
that overlooked should be dedicated
to the use of the schools and that
from the sale of said land az. irreduc-
ible fund should be established. The
money In this fund to be loaned on
real property and school funds only,
and the interest derived from such
loans to be used in the maintenance
Of state schools.

Bessie Cochran owes her life to the
fact that just few minutes prior to
the accident, V. L. Bender, superln-
tendent Of the plant, had called her
to the drying room for change OF
work. The second girl, Eva Zavalo-
SEX, was knocked and showed out Of
the burning structure by some OF the
others.
Superintendent Bedler had just
started for the doorway of box car
when the flash which started the fire
came and blew him entirely through
the car and some distance beyond
where he landed against fence.
The fire occurred about o'clock
in the afternoon. With the exception
of Mrs Ethel Heney, the victims had
relatives in or about Chehalis. Ow-
ing to the fact that It will be impos-
sible to Identify all the bodies, 1t is
a question just what funeral ar
rangements will be made.
The Powder company built its Che

CITY PRIMARIES
NOT AROUSING
MUCH INTEREST

There is very little interest in the
city primaries to be held next Sat
urday from noon to seven p. M. The
amendment to the charter provides
for holding the primary on Monday
instead of Saturday. Saturday is a
very bad day for the holding of a
primary election, the very busiest
day of the week, when business men
and their employees cannot get out to
vote. The charter amendment Of
fered will give the people non-par-
tisan city primary instead of the
present one, at which only republi-
cans and democrats are supposed to
have a right to vote. 1t is under
stood that the election officers Sat
urday will allow anyone to vote at
the primary, although according to
the state law only republicans and
democrats can lawfully vote at that
primary election, and some of the
judges of election may enforce that
provision and shut out the prohibi-
tionists, socialists and Independents
That is why the amendment to the
charter should be adopted at the De-
cember election.

it is probable that the scope of the con- eress will be greatly enlarged by" 'his preparatory work, and the session, in ln- terest and importance, will be as lnuch an advance upon it's predecessors as that was upon the first session in Paris.
 The wider publicity which the congress will be given in this country is also to be taken into account. The circulation or the daily papers in the Austrian capital appears to be restricted. I have ;een more afternoon papers in hand on one suburban train out of Chicago than l saw

On the evening of the first day a grand

 patron of the congress. The city of Vii

 rest entertained them sumptuously. They
 were also given excursions on land and
 water to points of historical and com
