March 7 To the Fdi t,,r i n n;y arrival tn Portland! lour weeks a&o this romillff Fruity I was a'rd to make a statement regarding te merger of the Klamath IeTelop mnt romiany'i Interest at Klamath Falls. 'r. In this Interview I Included tie Klamath Plonr Ires Publlsbln; lompanv. which at that time belonred to the Klamath development Company. About one week later, after a sale of lt- Klamath Pioneer Publishing Com tinv h.l been ejected to Samuel S. I'var. the Kvenms lleraiii. of Klamath Falls puhll-'ied my interview In their idumn. referring to the fact that I bad Inclosed the Pioneer Press Ptih lisMng I'omnany In the list of com panies that were merged Into one. also ; zzzzz- , Inferrirs that the Klamath Pevelor ment Company atlll owned the Klam ath Pioneer Press Publishing Com pany and that Mr. F.rana was the paid manasee. This la unjust and was used as nearly as I can determine in my own mind to benefit the Evening Her ald. There -baa been a local factional flsht in Klamath Falla for some tune. The Klamath Chronicle was onranixrd to oppose the Klamath revelopment Company in every effort It made to develop Klamath Falls and Klamth County. A paper with such a base as this one existed on eouW not prosper or riist. It went in debt and the backers of the paper finally refused to put up anv more money, an assign ment was made to E. J. Murray and Anally he was successful In selling to bamucl S. Hvans. Mr. Evans was first attracted to Klamath Falls when the Sunset ' xine sent him there to write up the country for their October issue of last vear. He came back later snd an nounced to the Klamath reve!npmcnt Company his Intention of entering the newspaper field at Klamath Falls, and asked toat If he were successful in buylnc the Klamath Chronicle would we sell him the Pioneer Press Pub lishlnc Company. We aitreed to do this, and he busied himself trytne to complete his deal with Mr. Murray. fter the completion of the deal we. the Klamath Development Company, transferred the Pioneer Tress publish ing Company to Mr. F.vans for value received In dollars ard cents. This ssle was made Just after my leavlns Klamath Falls the last time. We welcomed Mr. Kvnss' comlnR to Klamsth Falls c.catly. h " "Jf. of ability ami is a writer of note. We felt sure that tn selllnc him the Pion eer Press that we were benefiting Klamath Falls extremely. J have made this statement merely to Khoiv the Injustice of the Evcnlnc Herald and the wrong Inference con tained in dispatches to The Oregonlan that the Klamath development Com pany still owned the Pioneer Press. I wish to state publicly that our company lias no financial interest in this paper at all. JOnXi!ON Manaier the Klamath IeveIopmcnt Company.

Thus far two dogs have been kille.l and another was saved only by heroic means after it had twice been poisoned. A piece of the meat ealen by the last dog was an al sei yesterday by State Chemist walls and was found to contain crude strvchnlne in large nuantltirs. The persons thnt lost noKs are tleorae r Eisman. of 43. Fast Twenty sith street North, who lost a valuable bull terrier Sunday night, and O. .

The dog that was twice poisoned was for terrier belonging to Miss Nona Ijiwler. of 41 East Twenlv-siMh street North. Christina Herg. employed In the household of Mr. Eisman. almost lost her life by blond poisoning as a. result of the iloa poisoner's work. When she discovered the dog convulsed with pain Sundae nlht she attempted to admln lter an antidote and while so engaged her left hand wa bitten br the animal. She hurt led to a physlcinn living across the street, w hre prompt treatment averted possible fatal effect. As It was she suffered considerably from the wound, which Is t-tlll painful. Mis Lanier's dog was lirst stricken last Thursday nignt. She worked over It four hours before she finally relieved It. Wednesday night she noticed the dog pick up a piece of raw mcnt and hastened to take It away, but did not do so until the canine hail eaten part of !l From this It again exi-erlenced til effects. The meat was sent to the office of Ihe State Food and Inlry Commissioner, where Ihe strychnine was found. As a result of the mysterious at tempts at poisonirg. residents in the Irvlngton section are keeping their dogs tied up or muTr.ted. The police are Investigating them, hut thus far have met with nothing that would lead to a rolutlon. None of the Irvlngton resi dents appear to be able to trive any rrjsrt for the attempts at poisoning. Should the guilty parties be found they promise a vigorous .prosecution.

All the signatures were obtained In eight day circulation, an average of over TOO dally. - , . Everv mall brings to Selling hrad quaitrrs other belated petitions from different sections of the state, but it is not probable that these will be filed. Among the petitions arriving yester iliv, after the petition had been pre pared for filing, was one from Alsea. Hcnton County. It had 13 signatures and the precinct is a small one. Letters Aeeompaay PetUloaa. Accompanying the petitions as they are returned come most encouraging lettem from the men who attended to their circulation.. The letters nre uni formly optimistic. They report espe cially satisfactory conditions in all sec tions and predict the unquestioned suc cess of Mr. Sellings candidacy in the April primary elertion. "Conditions look very bright for vour success.' wrote one of the clrtMl iator In a Western Oregon county. "This county never has been strong for Senator Bourne and I believe that things will centralize and In the end the Lowell people will come to realize that you nre the strongest and decide their votes must bo enst for you." . In a number of precincts in which the Selling nominating petition was circulated, fully 4 per cent of the registered. Republican vote Is repre sented on tho petition. Prior to an nouncing hlB candidacy, Mr. Selling re ceived a letter front McCoy, Polk County, signed by 2'! men. It urged Mr. Selling to get into the contest. Yes terday arrived a nominating petition from that . same place, signed by 18 registered Republican voters. From an Kastern Oregon county came a petition witli 46 signatures which, the circulator wrote, were obtained In less than three hours. Another supporter eif Mr. Selling In a large agricultural d'strlrt sent word that the sentiment for the Portland man was decided! v strong In his section. The same report was received from two stock-ral.-lng counties or Central Oregon. Petitions Not lasg "Kaough. One circulator In Southern Oregon wrote that be was d Isappol n ted because lie had not been supplied wild sufficient petitions to accommodate thoee who asked to sign. The celerity w ith which the petitions were signed, the total number of signatures being nearly six times the requisite number, was only surpassed by the number of letters Mr. Selling received requesting liim to become a candidate. Mr. Selling said yesterday he was greatly encouraged by the reports lie Is receiving from virtually every county In the state. lie believes that the enthusiasm with which Ills; candi dacy lias been received augurs well for his success in the primary nominating election.
