today Issued a challenge to Gover
nor Walter M. Pierce and Warden
Dalrymple, of the state peniten

West's challenge was a sequel to
a statement he gave to a Portland
newspaper Thursday in which he
criticized the warden in connection
with the escape of the prisoners
Wednesday night when two guards
and another escaping convict were
killed.
Governor Pierce defended the
warden against West's attack.
"Around the rim of the canyon
are several score men and boys of
the guard ordered to keen the mur

challenge. "They may shortlv be
ordered to enter the canyon. Some
of them likely will be shot.
"Now here is my proposal to the
governor:
"I ask him and Dalrymple to
meet me at Pratum school house
