West Announces He Will Move His
Office Force to Portland Until
"CIeanup" Campaign is Underway.

Portland, ore. Aug Ex-Governor
West announced this afternoon that
he would move his stenographers
here and make this the capital so far
as he is concerned, till he puts his
vice campaign we'll under way.
West declared the real prostitutes
he is after are the prostitutes in Of
flee. He said he did not expect to
make a saint out of every woman of
the north end but that he did intend
to clean out the prostitutes who are
in office and refuse TO do their duty.
He said further he did not know how
long he would stay in Portlapd but he
would stay long enough to accom-
plish what he set out to do. He as
serted Cameron's contention that no
one could be appointed special prose-
cutor without being a deputy appoint
ed by him is ridiculous. Evans up
TO a late hour t,1a afternoon had not
definitely accepted. He stated he in
tended to have another conference
with West before making a decision.
The reason for his indecision is that
he is not certain whether, unless ap-
pointed by Cameron. he could prose-
cute with success. He doubted if his
in ictments would stand. He is eX-
pected to give a final answer in a few
hours

new HIGH SCHOOL
WILL BE READY
NOVEMBER 1ST
Pendleton's 500, 900 Temple of Learn
ing Has Many Features That
Commend 1t Highly.

Those who want to see what an ex-
tensive and thoroughly up-to-date
high school building Pendleton is go
Ing To have will do well to make a
visit to the new structure now being
erected on the high school hill and
which will be the city's 100000 tenn
pie of learning.
Work on the new building has pro-
gressed to such a stage that people
may obtain a very clear idea of how
the building VII be when completed.
The brick and concrete work is fin
ished or almost completed; and much
of the finishing work is well under
way. on the third floor many of the
rooms are almost ~eady for occu-
pancy. However, there is still vast
amount of finish ng work TO be done
and it is not expected to have the
building ready for use until Novem-
ber l. BY that date, however. Archi-
tect c. T.. Troutman believes that the
work will be completed and the
school board can take charge.
Features of the new high school
are the splendid lighting effects, the
conven ence of the arrangement of
rooms and splendid heating and VEN
tilating facilities. Virtually every part
of the building is as light as day and
the good light is particularly notice
abl in all the class rooms. 1t is guar
anteed that every room will have a
complete change of air every six min
utes and the heating arrangements are
within the building will be maintained
automatically.
Now that the high school building
is well under way the problem of ar
ranging the school grounds is coming
in for some attention. While Mr..
Troutman has not drafted plans for
the landscape architectural work. he
has been invited by the board to make
SUGGESTIONS. 1t is the idea of the ar
chitect that there should be no CEN
tial walk leading from the entrance of
the bu lding straight to the fence in
front but that instead diagonal walks
should lead to the entrance from
either corner of the grounds, so as
to make the building as accessible as
possible. Nr. Troutman also urges
that the grade on Tustin street be re-
duced several feet Sc as to reduce the
pitch on that grade.

cr VIII Face Charges Rests
With E'rcdcricks.

Los Angeles, Aug. 26.-Presiding
Judge Wills of the Los Angeles coun-
ty superior court, today denied a mo-
tion of the Darrow defense to dismiss
the Indictment specifically charging
Clarence Darrow with bribing Robert
F. Balm, a Mcnamara case juror. The
case was then continued to tomorrow
morning to be set fo- trial.
1t is regarded as probable that
Fredericks will ask tomorrow for a
further continuance or urge sufficient
time before the trial date to enable
him to recover fully from the illness
following the first Darrow trial Rog-
ers, defense counsel, is also suffer-
ing from the strain of the first trial
and 1t is feared he VIII be unable to
continue work for at least a month.
1t is generally believed that a judge
from another county will be brought
here to hear the case If it goes to
trial.
The decision as to whether Darrow
will be tried on the Balm charge rests
entirely with District Attorney Fred
ericks. Speculation is rife as to his
course
