A communication was received today
by the public service commission in
regard to the shortage of cars in the
Baker district from E. H. DeGroot, chief
of the car service division of the inter-
state commission. Three cr-
ders have been issued which, it is De.
lieved, will solve the trouble. The whole
Union Pacific system is to be treat
ed as a whole, and the surplus of cars
on the Oregon Short line can be divert
ed to the o. w. r. & n, company, which
is short. Loading of all cars by the last
named railroad will be made regardless
of the destination, it having been the
custom, in the past, to use this com
pany s cars only on their own tracks. A
distribution of the available cars among
the mills was also ordered.
1t is believed by Superintendent
Churchill that most of the prominent ed
of the state will attend the
meeting of the Inland Empire Teach
ers' association at Spokane in April.
The heads of the colleges, and most of
the county superintendent, and city of
ficials have signified their intention of
attending.
Three prospective candidates filed

one a democrat. DR.. j. w. Morrow of
Portland, is running for National com
mitteeman of the democratic party, and
a platform has ~ believe in the

whe has no slogan or platform, is a re-
candidate for state senator
from the 9th district, at Medford, and
Edward c. Judd of Astoria, would be
candidate for district attorney for
Clatsop county on the republican ticket.

DR. WRIGHT DEAD

pr. L. R. Wright was born Oct. 5, 1875 and died on Sun day, April ', while the noon- day sun was brightest.
 He attended the State Uni versity and finished with hon. ors at the Medical School at Memphis, Tenn, and was true to his profession.
 No one has done more to relieve the suffering and help those who needed help than he, and it seemed he was al ways looking for an opportuni- ty to do some one kindness.
 Twelve years ago Dr. Wright was stricken with paralysis which left him a cripple. But he never murmured. He would always say he was alright, and through those years of inward pain, he relieved many sufferers and truly gave his life for oth- CTS.
 When he was told he had pneumonia he told his friends he would not get we'll. He knew his strength, and said he was not strong enough to over come the disease, but told his parents and friends that every thing had been done and he was ready to die.
 He suffered much during his last illness but his friends were unnumbered and did all that could be done.
 No man will be missed more at home. His mother looked forward to his homecoming, when in the evening they could converse together, and how lonely it will be for her.
 But he left his assurance and she knows he is waiting for her.
 And to the aged parents and brothers we would say, what a consolation to know he lived a life of usefulness.

. ' GH ' ' &R y Y 4R 7 ' && WILD RUMORS &H J ' Y ' 4a ' y y 2 2 1

The circulating of of extrav- agent rumors and wild tales of victory is as harmful to the in- terests of this country in the present struggle as the spread ing of adverse reports.
 Recently the report was flashed from one end of the country to another of a great allied victory on the western front. In many parts of the country people went fairly wild with joy only to cast into corresponding depths of dejec- tion on learning that the report was unfounded.
 Our people should give ear to no reports that do not come from a reliable source. Tele- graphic news in the papers, from reputable news agencies can be relied on as being cor rect, or approximately so. The metropolitan dailies as  rule have reliable correspond ents on the front, and their reports can also be received as truth. But reports circulating from mouth to mouth frequent ly start from nothing but grow with the telling.
 In justice to the news agen cles and newspapers of the country it should be said that none of these fake reports have originated or been circulated by them. Such reports in most cases, if they could be traced to their original source would be found to have a sinister or igin-enemy propaganda, with view to disturbing the peace of the country and causing un- rest
 We should keep cool, and believe nothing that is not fully vouched for, trust in our government and our armies, and put our every energy into OUR part in the winning of the war.

PACE WINS BIG CASE
 AGAINST RICHARDSON
Little Rock Attorney to Recov- CT Big Fee Tn Connection
 With Erwin Case

The Arkansas Supreme Court on last Monday handed down a decision in the case of Frank Pace vs V. c. Richard son, in which the court holds that Pace is entitled to recover $12,500 from Richardson as an additional fee in the Erwin will case.
 By the terms of a will of ". J. Erwin his granddaughter, Mrs. Willie Richardson, was to receive the bulk of his large es- tate. Later he executed anoth- CT will, in which only $50 was left to Mrs. Richardson and the remainder of the estate to his wife. In order to protect the interests of his wife, V. c. Richardson, employed Frank Pace, an attorney to take the necessary steps to have the will set aside on the ground that MT. Erwin was not mental ly capable of trasacting busi- ness, he having suffered a stroke of paralysis, and also on account of his extreme old age. Pace was employed under a contract made with the guar dian of Mrs. Richrdson, she being a minor, which contract was approved by the Probate Court, and the same was also agreed to by Mrs. Richardson and her husband. By the terms of this contract Pace was to receive $25,000, in case the re- covery for Mrs. Richardson from estate of her grandfather amounted to a sum between $75,000 and S150,000. The suit never came to trial and a compromise was made by which Mrs. Richardson receiv- ed about S135,000 as her share.
 She paid Pace $12,500 and declined to pay any more or the grounds that Pace had neg lected the case and that she had to employ additional law yers to represent her. The chancery court held that Pace was not entitled to recover un- der his contract, but found that he had rendered valuable ser vices, whose reasonable value was $12,500, which had all been paid to him.
 The Supreme Court found that there was not sufficient testimony to establish the fact that Pace had neglected his clf- ents in the preparation of the case, and held that under his contract he was entitled to re- cover an additional $12,500, and reversed the decree of the Chncery Court, with directions to enter decree to that effect.

Little Rock, April 9.-W. T. Reynolds, State Comptroller, has just completed thorough audit of all the state depart ments and institutions showing in detail every cent of ex- pense and the source of every cent of revenue.
 The total amount available in appropriations for all pur- poses for the biennial period of 1917-18, is $7,237,258.93 This represents a cost of $1.80 for each $100 of assessed valu- aa9a atioa' and a pereapita cost of
 To secure these results the popluation is estimated at l. 753,033, and the assessed valu- ation of the state at $450,O91,- 234.
 The appropriations for the various purposes are as follows Agricultural -$ 523,6970O Boards and Commis-

 It costs each citizen of the state 60 cents a year to main tain the schools, and 58 cents to maintain the charitable in- stitutions and he contributes only IT cents year to the support of the various state
