Los Angeles, Cal, April 26.-Greet-
ed by scores of friends and support
ers Senator La Toilette arrived here
today to begin four-days cam
paign tour of Southern California. He
will formally open the Los Angeles

That he believes that the balance
of power which he hopes to control
will swing the Chicago Republican

Dental nomination was indicated by
LaFollette upon his arrival here. He
declared that If he carries California
he will go into the convention with
more than 100 dlegates and will be
able to prevent the nomination Of
either Taft or Roosevelt.
LaFollette is accompanied by Mrs,

The COST OF
SEEKING A
NOMINATION

The cost of running for office has
apparently been greatly reduced
from that of dozen years ago, and
the evidence of it is the expense ac-
counts filed by the candidates at the
recent election. According to these,
l., j. Adams, democratic candidate
for count yjudge, paid the most of
any of them, $S6.15, yet in old times
this would hardly have paid the cigar
bill, and is certainly a modest sum.
George w. Johnson for legislature
was next with $500. From that
they range down to nothing and are
given as follows:
Joseph Baumgartner and ]. F. T..
B. Brentano, nominated on the Dem
ocratic ticket for the legislature,
paid out during the campaign only
$3.50 and $500, respectively L. j..
Adams, who was defeated for the
nomination Tor county Judge by W..
M. Bushey, the present incumbent,
filed a statement showing that his
campaign expenses were $S6.15.
Other statements filed were as fol-
lows:
j. w. Roberts, Republican candi-
date for the nomination for represen-
tative, SLIPS; G. S. Welch, Republi-
can candidate for constable in the
Salem district, $142O; W. T. Clark,
Republican candidate for justice of
the peace in the Horeb district, no
expenses; ]. G. Moore, present in
cumbent Of the Office of city treas
urer's office, who defeated W. R..
Townsend for the nomination on the
Republican ticket, $31.7O; J. F. Jones,
defeated Republican candidate for
nomination for representative, $1,000.

or THE
ESCAPES ARE
CAPTURED

F. Tompkins, one of the insane men,
who, with five others, Monday effect
ed an escape from the asylum by
overpowering Attendant Bagley, has
been captured at Oregon City, accord
ing to information received at the
asylum.
This leaves but two of the six-Al-
len and Jones-at large, and it is be-
lieved that their apprehension will be
brought about soon. Conlin was cap
tured shortly after he escaped, and
Condor at Waconda the next day,
where he broke into the sub-station of
the Oregon Electric depot, and re-
ceived a severe electric shock from
the wires. Douglas, the Frenchman,
and considered the most dangerous of
all, was captured at Newberg, and is
now back at the asylum. In an inter
view given out at Newberg he declared
that he desired to break into the pen
itentiary by committing crimes SO
that he might study criminology, and
that he was not insane. He further
declared that he changed his mind
when arrested, fearing bad treatment
at the. penitentiary, and therefore
slammed insanity, so as to go to the
asylum. Now, he says, he is sorry,
and wishes he had become a candidate
for the penitentiary instead.

NO EVIDENCE
THAT WIRING
CAUSED fire

In the report which has been pub
lished about the cause of the fire in
the Sleeves building there being
nothing better to lay the cause of
fire to, it was mentioned that it was
probably due to defective wiring, but
there is absolutely no proof that the
fire was caused by poor wiring any
more than that it was caused by a
dozen other things which might have
led to it. In justice to the electric
cal firms of Salem, 1t has been re-
quested that this erroneous idea be
cleared until there is something
which would lead to the suspicious
that the fire was caused by poor wir-
ing. At present, however, there is
no grounds for such a supposition.

Oakland.-The tale of fortune that
was never known to have existed was
unfolded in the superior court here re-
Gently when application was made by
relatives to have Joseph Kelly declared
incompetent and guardian appointed
to look after his affairs. Until the pa
pers in the action were fled Kelly APP
parently was a plodding gardener liv-
ing on the pittance that work has
brought him. Testimony shows him to
be capitalist with extensive inter.
ests and large bank account. For
20 years Kelly has been gardener on
the estate of the late Governor Leland
Stanford at Palo Alto. He received
$40 month as wages. 1t now develops
that he is worth $4,000, of which
100000 is cash on hand. Kelly is 80
years old. In years gone by he was
an attache of the state legislature.

EDUCATION NOTES.

Arbor day has been introduced in
Italy.
Last year Texas put up an average
of two schoolhouses a day, the total
bill being $3,Ooo,Oo0.
Needing more money for their
schools than was being raised by tax
alton, the inhabitants of Wake county,
North Carolina, adopted the unique ex-
pedient of cultivating the land sur
rounding the schools, the money OBJ
tanned from the sale of the crops being
used for the benefit of the school.
Seventeen such school farms were oper-
ated last year. They were worked by
1000 persons, men, women and chill
dren, who contributed their labor free.
The net gain from the enterprise was
nearly $1,000.
Considered without qualifying cir
cumstances, the latest official reports
indicate that only three persons out Of
10000 in Germany are unable to read
or write, while the proportion of illit-
eracy in Great Britain is $50 per 10000,
as against no per 10000 in the United
States. The illiteracy among the native
whites of this country is only per
cent.
Every child in the elementary city
schools of the United States is to be

of his entire school career in the
grades kept permanently on file, ac-
cording to the plans formulated by in

ing entries, among others: Age of

GREAT BRITAIN IS cENsuRED
Attacked by Berlin Newspaper for
Peru Outrages.

Berlin.-The Berlin Tageblatt pub
fishes leading article assailing Great
Britain for the conditions in the Putu-
mayo rubber district Of Peru. The
newspaper demands that the United
States intervene, as the atrocities COM
mitted against the Indian rubber col
lectors have created a situation which
is variant to the Monroe doctrine,
under which the United States can
bring pressure to bear on South
American republic failing to observe
the standards of morality. Such
course, the Tageblatt adds, would be
far more praiseworthy than the pro-
lection Of delinquent debtors against
European creditors.
