Men Have Narrow Escape In Runa-
way.

Frank Turner and George Elder,
his hired man had a narrow escape
from death, or severe injuries at
least, when they were victims in a
runaway at the Turner ranch last
Monday. They had gone up to
grain field, which is situated on
steep side hill, and were driving
four horse team to hay wagon. All
the horses got excited when one
young animal on the wheel started
them going. Mr. Turner was driv-
ing but when the horses started down
the hill he was unable to hold them.
By piece of rare good fortune the
wagon turned over up hill after
the runaway horses had made quick
turn. The occupants were thrown
from the wagon and the horses piled
up in the ditch The wagon was
badly mutilated and one horse was
injured.

Loses Car, But He Is Really Money
Ahead.

While Fords were still more ex-
pensive than talking machines, john
ny Welsh, one of Portlands most
prominent craw fl S h consumers,
bought one.
By talking hard, Welsh was able
to convince an insurance concern that
it was insurable to the extent of $400.
Two days after Henry Ford put an
other premium on the jitney profess
sion somebody stole Welsh's car. At
ter an insurance adjuster had looked
through all the hooks in the Welsh
house to make sure the car was not
misplaced, his company paid over the
S400.
Welsh went out and bought a new
Ford and put the rest of the money in
the bank.-Portland Telegram.

More Fish Planted In Morrow
County Streams

Game Warden, Robert H. Young re-
turned from Condor Tuesday, where
he had been supervising the plant
ing of 1875, 900 young trout in Gillian
county streams. Of this number, not
all were placed in streams of that
county, but about 10000 we're taken
to upper Rock creek, not far from
Hardman in this county. Mr.. Young
reports that with the exception of a
consignment taken to Fossil, all the
fish were put in the streams in fine
shape. However, at Fossil, mis-
take was made in supplying the fish
cans with air from a garage tank, and
result about half of the fish taken
there did not survive.

Hen Tries Birds Style.

Mrs. Martha Heisler of Dufur has
a hen which is not contented with
the regulation nests which Grand
ma provides for the layers of her
flock, but built nest about ten feet
from the ground in large tree
growing in the chicken yard. The
nest had IA eggs in it when found.
Mrs. Heisler had noticed this hen
was missing from the flock most of
the time for several weeks past and
had watched to see what became of
her and finally saw her fly out of
the tree where she had built a per-
feet nest among the branches. 9th
erwise the hen is normal and of or
dinary breed.-The Dalles Optimist.

of grade pupils for a model training
school, wherein the seniors could pur-
sue the study of methods by observa-
tion and practice. The assumption
that Pendleton will turn over all of
its grammar grades to a Normal
school for practice work we regard as
amusing. 1t would be easy for the
Weston school seniors to acquire lc-
tual teaching experience in the rural
schools of the neighborhood. In view
of the fact that many. of the grad
uates would be required for the rural
schools of this section of the state,
such experience would be invaluable.
''As to climatic conditions and at
tractive environment Weston is an
admirable location for Normal
school. We are glad to say this in
justice to our neighbor, although
Weston and Athena are to certain
degree rival towns for the trade Or
adjacent territory.
From the vitwpoint of the tax
paying public outside of its immed'-
late environs, Pendleton's claims
would seem absurd. Speaking for
themselves, Athena taxpayers object
to paying their share toward S125,-
600 school plant at Pendleton, when
an adequate plant at Weston is al
ready available. They further object
to paying an annual tax of one
twenty-fifth of a mill for Pendle-
ton school, when one-fortieth of a
mill would reopen the Weston school
with an annual income of more than
double its former maintenance.
Whatever the indictment Pendie-
ton may bring against the Weston
Normal is also an indictment of the
Monmouth Normal.

eral years ago it was burned and then
new, modern and up-to-date machin-
cry was installed so that it is first
class mill today. Mr.. Trester has
had much experience with milling and
nothing but first class product will
be put on the market. There will be
some few changes made and probably
by September the fall run will start.

ATHENA OPPOSED TO
PENDLETON NORMAL
Citizens at Mass Meeting Go on Rec
ord in Favor of the Weston
Plant.

Athena, Aug. AT a meeting
held in the office of B. B. Richards,
city recorder, and presided at by May
or Homer l. Watts, citizens adopted
the following protest against the pro-
posed bill for normal school at Pen
dleton:
I'VE, the people of Athena, Una
tilla county, Oergon, in a mass meet
ing assembled, do declare it to be our
belief and opinion that the Pendleton
Normal school bill should be defeat
ed. When the voters and taxpayers
of the state deem it advisable to re-
establish a normal school in eastern
Oregon, we believe that the state
school now in existence at Weston
which was never abolished, but mere
ly failed of support-should be re-
stored to usefulness. We regard the
abandonment of this school by the
state senate in 1909 as highhanded
act of political reprisal
1--WE deplore Pendletons act in re-
newing the Normal school agitation
at this time as precipitate and ill-ad-
vised. We fear that Pendleton's S over
weening ambition, which is we'll un-
derstood in the Athena community,
has in this particular instance warped
her judgment. In our opinion Una
tilla county, itself, will cast a sub
stantial majority against the Pendle-
tin bill, and its defeat is practically
certain. We fear a fiasco resultant
from Pendleton's campaign that will
react against the normal school pros
poets of this section of the state.
"The statement published by the
Pendleton committee that the state
school plant at Weston it worthless
and the administration building
cracked from top to bottom is false
and misleading. Athena is situated
but three miles from Weston and We
are familiar with conditions there.
We consider the plant as ample for
the requirements of an eastern Ore
gon normal school. 1t is In good con-
dition for use, and is now in fact be-
ing used under lease by the Weston
school district. Were it true, which it
is not, that the principal building IS
cracked from top to bottom, such
unfitness should initiate against in
vestment by taxpayers of $125,O00 in
a new school plant at Pendleton. The
state built at Weston. The Pendle-
ton charge of failure implies its in
competence.
1--WE know of the good work done
by the Weston Normal under serious
handicaps and of the professional sue
cess of its graduates. IT, as the Pen
dleton statement claims, this school
has cost but $174,000 during an 49,
year period, we consider that the
money was unusually we'll spent. Had
it been maintained until the present
time we feel assured that it would
have become a flourishing and sue
cessful institutional standard nor
NAL school in fact.
"The district of Weston is large
enough to furnish an ample number
