THE MEXICAN
REVOLUTION COLLAPSES
UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE.


Ell Paso, Texas, May 2O,-Collapse
of the Mexican insurrection is hour
ly expected here today following the
receipt OF apparently authentic re-
ports that General Pascual 0rozco's
rebel troops are deserting by the
score, and surrendering to General
Huerta, in command of the govern
ment forces Confident that he has

hua well in hand, General Huerta to-
day sent General Hernadez south with
a detachment of troops to meet the
rebel force commanded by General
Zapata, which has been active in the
territory adjacent to Mexico City.
El Paso is in a state of suppressed
excitement this afternoon over re-
ports that the federals are planning
an attack on Juarez. Late this af-
ternoon a force Of government troops
under Colonel T. d. Sanchez, was re-
ported advancing on Juarez, and
Colonel Jose orozco, a cousin of Cen
eral orozco, with 300 men, went to
meet the advancing federals.

ROAD BELIEVED TO BE CROSS.
ING MARION COUNTY TO REACH
THE HEART OF THE WILLIAM.
ETTE VALLEY.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
roalroad is believed to be coming
across Marion county, and to be among
the early transportation possibilities
of the Capital City. Some time ago
an effort was made to get a franchise
through Silverton by representatives
of that line, but they were turned
down, and the enterprising men of
Mt Angel took up the matter. They
not only gave the promoters a fran
chise and rights Of way through Mt.
Angel, but a bonus Of practically $780,
900 in the shape Of depot grounds and
terminals. The right of way has been
secured across the county almost into
Salem, and that company will be
knocking at the doors OF our city for
a franchise shortly With the S. p
company building across east to Fir
station, with the Welch system in
cluding a direct line to Silverton in
its plans and the Milwaukee system
coming in by way of Oregon City, Mo
lalla and Mt Angel, the outlook for
Salem as a railroad center is very flat
tering and real estate east Of the city
is not declining in value

WEST WILL
EQUALIZE
SEEKS TO ASCERTAIN A MORE
EQUITABLE BASIS FOR SALAR-
les OF COUNTY OFFICIALS In
EVERY COUNTY OF THIS STATE

Declaring the present system under
which salaries for county officers are
paid to be discriminatory, Governor
West today announced that he in
tends to present to the next legisla-
ture a bill which will establish uni
formity of salaries in all of the coun-
ties, and with that end in view, he is
gathering data on the subject.
His plan is to ask the counties to
submit lists of the salaries now
paid. Then he will ask the tax COM
mission to give him the valuation Of
each county. These lists will then
be sent to bank presidents, heads Of
oranges, farmers unions, and they
be asked to give their idea of what
the salaries should be.
He will then strike an average, and
will fix in the bill to cover the ap-
preparation for all certain levy and
place all of the counties on mill
lage basis. The county officers sal
aries will be placed on a percentage
basis so that the county court can
compute them.
In fixing the salaries Of the coun-
ties three things will be considered,
their valuation, their population and
their area.

Abraham Ruef, former political boss
of San Francisco, now serving SEN

have been discovered today as "a re-
suit of the accident at the Colman
dock, when the slip on which the
passengers were clambering aboard

way, and 60 persons were hurled fun
, nelwise into Elliott bay. The known
dead are: Mrs. Florence e. Learned
and Carl Bruder, one-year-old son OF
Mrs. b. c. Bruder.
Several narrow escapes occurred.
Newton Johns, a negro bootblack,
proved to be the hero Of the occa-
sion. He tied a rope about his waist
and for half an hour continued TO
drag one person after another to
shore. AT least a dozen lives are
credited to his rescue work.
The accident resulted from a worn
out gear which winds the chains that
raised and lowered the gang plank.
The gear slipped the cog wheels and
the chains fell back The end Of the
slip nearest the boat tilted back and
plunged into the water. Every one on
the gang plank was caught. There
was no escape Those on top pushed
those below them into the water so
