Mrs. f. e. Vest Talks on immigration
Problem at Presbyterian Church.

| Although Mrs. F. E. Vest, wife OF
DIR. F. E. Vest, says she does not

| at the Second Presbyterian church last
| night, based on her observation abroad
and reading at home, was revelation
! to many who attended. The talk was
| illustrated by stereopticon views. The
lecturer has recently returned from a
! two years visit in Southern Europe.
According to statistics gathered by
Mrs. Vest, more than 100000 imm1-
grants enter the United States an
nuaIly. She said it had been estima-
ted that 1000 immigrants day was
about the average. Some times one
steamer carries 1900.

ITO help these great masses of inn
migrants said Mrs. Vest, 40 mis-
sionaries officially representing as
many churches work continually al

help the foreigners find their friends
and employment.
For this purpose the mission homes
have been established in the great At

IN HONOR OF UNCLE
JOHN MINT0'S BIRTHDAY

A social event Of more than ordin-
ary Importance will take place at the
Marion Hotel tonight when 25 or more
of the friends Of good Uncle John Min
ton will sit at table with him, and
unite in celebrating the occasion of
his nineteth birthday. There will be
speeches, of coursev many of them,
and heartfelt ones, but there will be
none that will do the subject Justice,
for words are weak to express the
tenderest feelings of the human heart
But those at the table with Uncle
John will not by any means comprise
the list Of those whose best wishes
and love go out to the grand old man.
All the old residents will be there in
spirit, and If their feelings we're all
written there would be enough paper
piled up in the Marion dining room to
smother all the banqueters. The
horse editor takes off his hat to Uncle
John. and expresses the wish that he
may enjoy good health for years yet
to come, and up to the minute Of the
final call.

e. L. Ballah, whose home Is in 0ma
ha, Nebraska, where he has wife ant
several children, died early this morn
ing in the city Jail as a result of in
juries received early in the evening
yesterday by falling down the stair
way entrance on the east side Of the
First Congregational church. 1t is not
known just how the accident happen
ed, but he was evidently wandering
around there unable to find his way
when he fell into the pit which is
about six feet deep. He evidently
landed on his head, which caused a
fracture of the skull just above the
left ear. A post mortem examination
was held this forenoon at the Leh-
man & Clough establishment by DR..
o. b. Miles, assisted by Claude V.
Nelson and l.. l.. Hoy, students Of the
medical department of the Willamette
university.
The attention of the police depart
ment was first called to the accident
about $3.50 last night, when a passer-
by heard groans of a man coming from
between the parsonage and the church
at the place where he was later dis
covered in an unconscious condition,
from which he never recovered. He
was taken Immediately to the city hall
where DR.. Miles attended him, dress
ing his wounds and making him as
comfortable as circumstances and con-
ditions would permit. During the
night he suffered a good deal and
died about o'clock this morning.
His wife has been serving as a nurse
in one of the hospitals Of Omaha and
was to have left there yesterday for
Seattle, expecting to arrive there on
the 18th. Chief Hamilton wired the
chief of police of Omaha this morning
advising him to ascertain if Mrs. Bal
lah was still in that city From let
ters found on the person Of the unfor-
tunate man it seems that nothing but
friendly relations have existed be-
tween him and his family and that
both were looking forward 70 a happy
meeting at Seattle on the 18th.

EUGENE TO

TION OF THE OREGON ELECTRIC
NEXT TUESDAY.

Eugene, Ore, Oct. 10.-Of great
importance to the whole Of western
Oregon is the opening on the 18th Of
this month Of service on the Oregon
Electric between Albany and Eugene.
For 1t marks the passing of Oregon
towns without transportation compe-
titlon. Salem, Albany and Corvallis
in the past have had the river to offer
at least nominal competition, but
Eugene, like the cltiNs Of southwest
ern Oregon, has had to depend on a
single railroad for all transportation.
Eugene, President Young says, is not
the terminus, and II is only a question
Of time until the Hill line will be
reaching out for Roseburg, Grants
! Pass and Medford.
The passing Of this condition is to
be properly welcomed by the city OF
Eugene, assisted by the officials Of the
Oregon Electric company. Excursions
| are to be run from all points on the
Oregon Electric, and fully 5000 visi-
tors are expected from the outside.
Carl Gray under whom the greater
part Of the preliminary work was
done, premises to be present If he
can get here, and answers are eX-
pected daily from Louis w. Hill, and
Iother high officers Of the Hill lines
in the east OF course all the active
officers of the Oregon Electric and
other Hill lines in Oregon will be
there
Invitations, too, have been issued
to the mayors members Of the city
councils, and commercial club officers
of all the cities Of western Oregon.
To entertain these guests there will
be a parade in which the industrial
riches Of the upper Willamette valley
will be featured, and there will be
other interesting events to mark the
event with the attention It deserves.

COLLEGE STUDENTS WILL
FIND THE RIGHT REMEDY

Governor West today stated that he
will refer complete data gathered with
relation to the salaries paid all county
officials in the state, together with
tentative plans he has worked out for
a bill to be introduced at the next leg
islature, to students 'of the University
Of Oregon and the agricultural college
with the request that they examine
into it all and give him their views on
the subject.
Under the present salary system
county officials are paid all kinds Of
salaries, and the governor contends
that they are unequal and unjust. For
sometime he has been planning to
ecualize them, and believes that If
they are based on the population, the
assessed valuation and the area Of the
county that they can be made some
what equal. He now has data show
ing Just how much each county pays
its officials, and this together with his
tentative plans, will be turned over to
the students Of the schools for analyz'
alton
