Two young criminals named
Armstrong and Ames were brought
in laHt Friday by Sheriff Elkins
from Sisters on a telegram from
the sheriff of Lane county, or
dering their arrest on a charge of
horse stealing.
The young fellows are a couple
of hobos who came to Oregon pre
sumably to work on the north
bank railroad. In their wander
ings they drifted down into Lane
county where they helped them
selves to a couple of horses and
then started across the mountains.
Sheriff Elkins was notified to be on
the lookout and when they arrived
at Sisters were arretted. Before
reaching Sisters the young desper
adoes held up and robbed an old
man by the name of Patterson, re
lieving him of 110.
The Lane county officials have
been apprised of the arrest and
officers from that county arrived
n Prineville yesterday morning to
get the young culprits.

people are getting ready to go to
Lakeview for the opening of the
reserve on uctober as, the fol

on October 28, when the lands will
be opened for filing or selection.
On September 28, settlement may
be commenced, but no filings will
be accepted for 30 days. This
ruling is in conformity with the
department's policy in giving set
tlers an opportunity to settle upon
lands released from withdrawals
over scrippers and timber land
seekers. There is a possibility,
however, that in favoring the
