Capt c. A. Murphy engineer at the

made superintendent OF the state
training school near Salem. The po-
sition is shortly to be vacant and Cap
tain Murphy is an applicant with
strong backing for the place. State
Treasurer Kay is urging his appoint

West is favorable to keeping the place
open until DR.. Withycombe becomes
governor so as to let the new COVER

quoted as saying:
There has been some talk OF a
change at the training school for sew

ted today. I'VE have been looking
around for a good man to take Hale's
place but 1t has run so long now
that I believe it would be just as well
to let it go until after the first Of the
year. Inasmuch as DR. Withycombe
will be a member of the board and
the new superintendent will work

he should be given a chance to name

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1s.-America
needs more soldiers. This was the
positive assertion in the annual report
today Of General Wotherspoon, chief
OF staff of the United States army.
Wotherspoon maintains that not
only is the United States unprepared
TO resist an invasion by a first class
power but also we are in no position
to defend the Panama canal, the
Philippines or Alaska.
He contends that the probable value
OF our coast defenses is questionable.
In his report Wotherspoon urged
that the standing army of the nation
be increased from 1O5, 600 to 200. 900
and that in addition there be a mo-
bile army Of 100000 first line troops
and 100000 second line troops.
He declared that the nation with
the present military forces cannot as
semble It fast enough and in suffi-
cient strength to cope with an enemy
disembarking on our shores.
The distribution of the nations
forces on a wide front was advised by
Wotherspoon because a wide choice
OF landing places was open to an
enemy. The first line of the mobile
force of half a million. he said.
would have thoroughly trained men.
equipped with supplies and provisions
for six months. These would be re-
inforced by second line OF 100000
men drawn from the recognized mi
litia and similarly provisioned.
Wotherspoon held that the troops
now distributed among our foreign
under the present organi-
zation plans. were totally inadequate
to meet the needs OF outlying dist
riots and that an effective defense of
the Philippines was "manifestly i'm
possible" with the present forces !
Likewise, he said. the Panama canal |
could not be protected against a for
eign invasion by the present garrison I
or by the proposed additions thereto. /
Unless the army was so euipped that /
hese garrisons could be rapidly re-
nforced

Ira Hughes, who has a wood-cutting
contract near Meacham, was in the
city yesterday and reported that on
Monday three mad coyotes came right
into Meacham and attacked the dogs
of Mrs, Ben Marlin just in front OF
her hotel. One of the dogs was so
badly torn that 1t will die and one of
the coyotes was killed by Mr.. Hughes.
As a result of battle with a coy
ote. the Airedale dog of Albert Gill
liam in the south end of the county
developed rabies and had to be shot.
District Attorney Fred Steiwer used
the dog on hunting trip during the
early part of September and IL was on
this hunt that the dog fought AMI
killed the coyote. Three weeks later
the dog, hitherto a very quiet animal,
went mad. racing all over the neigh
borhood and attacking cows and
horses. A bullet finally stopped its
career.
District Game Warden Averill has
received reports from various Sec
tion OF the rabid coyotes and believes
the disease is quite general among
the animals and will make them a Sc
rious menace not only to stock but
to human life. The disease appeared
among the coyotes OF Baker county
some time ago but not until recently
have there been indications OF its
spread here.

Rabies has appeared among the
coyotes in Umatllla county and the
infected animals are growing so bold
and savage that considerable conster-
nation has been caused in the outly-
ing communities. No less than four
different instances OF rabid coyotes
have been reported, one man and a
half dozen dogs have been bitten and
in some cases, according to reports,
even horses have been attacked.
Mack Gilliland. former janitor Of
the court house and brother OF ex-
Judge I. p. Gllllland, Is the man who
was bitten and he is now taking treat
ment at the Pilot Rock hospital as
precautlon against infection. The Sc
rum for the treatment had to be
shipped from San Francisco.
A week or more ago Gilliland was
doing the chores in the early morn

Nye when a coyote sneaked up behind
him and bit him in the leg, He kick

but II escaped. Proceeding on to the
ranch OF J. N. Burgess 1t attacked two
sheep dogs there and when the herd

tackled him. He secured his gun and
killed II.
