that even that idea of ifistitutins pro-

Moving With Caution.
Meanwhile. taking their cue from
the presidents statement regarding
military and naval movements, the Of
fctals Of both the war and navy de-
partment were endeavoring to avoid is
suing any orders or statements that
would contribute to sensational re-
ports of unusual activities in their de-
partments. A number Of army Off
GERS were ordered to Hawaii, but only
to rejoin their commands.
At the navy department., Secretary
Daniels positively denied any. con-
nection between the few naval move
ments recorded during the. last twen-
ty-four hours, and the Japanese sit
uation. He took pains to point out
that the departure from San Pedro for
San Francisco Of the big armoured
cruiser Maryland was simply in con-
tinuation of a test trip Of vessels of
a certain grade of coal which was ar
ranged by the navy department about
a month ago. The Maryland will end
these coal tests at San Francisco. The
navy. department, it was stated, does
not intend to send any vessels from
the Atlantic to the Pacific side Of the
continent at this juncture.

PIONEER INDIAN
PASSES AWAY

Jack Oyo, probably the oldest
member of the Hoquiam branch of
the Chehalis Indian tribe, died dur
ing an epileptic fit yesterday while
being brought from Satsop to Ho-
quiam by Salmon Charley, his ne
phew.
Oyo has been subject to fits since
1888, when his head was split open
with an axe during a drunken row
at the Indian village, which was To-
Gated on the present site of the Ma
tional MILL
Oyo was a nephew of old Chief
Chemanus, who refused to sign the
treaty agreed upon between repres-
entatives of the government and most
of the chiefs of the Northwestern
tribes in the early sos and his father
was a noted "tamanamus man." or
doctor. Not more than half a dozen
members Of the Hoquiam clan sur
vive him, among them his son,
Johnny Oyo. Oyo was about 60 years
old and was born and raised on the
site of this city.
Besides having $4,000 on deposit
in the First National bank of Ho-
quiam, the old Indian owned consid.
cradle property in this county.

DEMOCRATS TO
CELEBRATE
Democracy Of Chehalis Coun-
ty Will Observe Jeffer-
son Anniversary
BANQUET AT MONTESANO
Central Committee Has Ar
ranged for Qualification
at County Seat

MONTESANO, March q. (SpeciaD
With the smell of new hay in his
nostrils, the Democratic Donkey is
stepping high, with ears afront and
kicking up his heels behind, witness
the fact that this party, that has been
in moribund condition in this, the
county seat town ever snce-two
dates-Governor Rogers died, and Au-
ditor Sells surrendered his Office to
a republican successor, way back in
the '90's.
The reason need not long be look
ed for. A year ago the most care
full census of this mans town would
not have revealed to exceed 200 open
and above board democrats. Today
it is fairly and literally alive with
them. To explain the altered cir
cumstances belongs to the province
of the philosopher, not the mere
scribe, chronicler of present and past
political events in this, the seat Of
government of Chehalis county.
1t suffices to say that all this
palaver is preliminary to the an.
nouncement that the Democratic
County Central Committee, through
L. B. Bignold, president, and DR.. s.
L. Moak, secretary, has arranged for
Jefferson Day banquet in this city,
on the anniversary Of the patron
saint OF Democracy, Thomas Jeffer-
son. on Saturday evening, April 12.
With true Jeffersonain simplicity,
the affair will be democratic. Al
$1.0O per plate, the occasion will be
celebrated in Eagles hall, and an
effort is being made to secure Gov
ernor Lister and Hon. Thomas Vance,
of Olympia, as the principal speak
ers.
1t goes without saying that the in
vitations of Secretary Moak will meet
with cordial responses, and 1t IS ex-
pected that leading democrats from
all parts of Chehalis county will be
present to lend aid and encourage
ment upon this, their first opportun-
ity to rejoice in sixteen years.
