WILSON HAS FRACAS WITH HORSE
Animal Kicks Daylight Out of the Cart and
Driver Has a Narrow Escape
J. E. Wilson, the fhoeruaker,
came nearly having hia brain?
kicked out Friday evening. He
had a young horse, which he was
breaking, hitched up to a go-cart,
and while facing a stable belong
ing to Jack Summers it commenced
to kick. Every time it would kick
the animal would turn a little and
finally got squared around to Main
street when it started to run. The
horse ran but a short distance
when it was stopped. Meantime, i
Mr. Wilson, who is a cripple, lost
hit foothold in the cart and fell to
the bottom, face uppermost, still
holding fast to the lines. Every
time the horse would kick iu steel
shoes would pass about two inches
above his face. The man was
rescued from his perilous ro ition
with severely cut hand and a bad
ly damaged cart. Mr. Wilson says
that he has been breaking horses
for a good many years but this is
the first time that he ever had
such a close call.
RAILROAD PROJECT
UP TO PRINEVILLE
(Continued from page 1.)
then the preferred stock would
share in voting power with the
common stock.
The incorporators of the road
will take their pay for construction
and engineering at the regular
rates which would be paid to con
tractors, in common stock. They
will receive the largest block of
6tock, thereby controlling the road.
The proposed Central Oregon
railroad will be in the line of a
north and south road to California
or that from Fortland east to Salt
Lake City, and would be desired
by such a road as a link in the
future system. Absorption of the
earlier road would in nowise
jeopardize the holdings of present
day investors or stockholders. A
through line will come much
quicker by building the proposed
Central Oregon segment.
Road Must Be Built for Tonnage.
The road will not be built for
nr-.y particular town or section of
t ie country. What is mainly de
Fired is to get it built far enough
ir.to the country from any outside
railroad connection to be within
reasonable wagon haul from this
portion of the country. It must
be built along a route to provide
tonnage which will make the road
pay. It must also be built where
it will not be rendered useless later
by another road paralelling it.
These considerations make it nec
essary to pass through the Madras
country to get the wheat tonnage.
After it passes Madras to the south
it should reach a point where it
will serve both Bend and Prine
ville, but should either city be
fearful lest the road would go to
one and not the other, provision
might be made that, after reaching
such a point, for each miie built
toward either town one should
likewise be built toward the other.
Much Preliminary Work Done.
The railroad company now has
a surveying crew hard at work in
the field, the right of way having
been already surveyed between
O'Neil and Madras. In the mat
ter of subscriptions the promoters
have met with success in -Bend,
Redmond and Sisters districts.
About 150,000 in preferred stock
has been actually subscribed and
much more promised.
It is not proposed to begin work
until the combined subscriptions
are sufficient to build enough rail
road to bring relief to this country
and one which will pay to operate,
but October is the time set. As
surances of a heavy subscription
come from Columbus, Ohio, and a
quiet meeting of Columbus capital
ists with this end in view was held
in Prineville last Saturday.
Remember, everybody! Satur
day evening, August 15. Be sure
and go to the meeting.
Where Did Willie Ike
Get the Firewater?
Thomas Miller, an Indian, was
pulled off his horse Sunday in a
state of partial intoxication and
arrested on a charge of violation
of the liquor law by Deputy
Sheriff Combs. After sobering up
in "the cooler" the red man was
taken before Colonel Draper, who
fined him $25. The fine was paid
and the Indian released.
Willie Ike, it was ascertained,
supplied the whisky which made
the Indian drunk, and the author
ities are now working to find out
where Ike obtained the firewater.
Urged onward by the Law and
Order league and the ministers in
this city, the original source will
be traced, if possible, and the ille
gal liquor supply cut off.

To Make the Catalog House
Customer Think.
An exchange publishes the fol
lowing Ten Commandments as ex
pressing the policy of catalog
houses. As they contain some
some good hard Eense, we com
mend them to the attention of our
readers:
1. You shall sell your farm
produce for cash, whenever you
can, but not to us; we do not buy
from you.
2. You shall believe our state
ments and buy all you need from
us because we want to be good to
you, although we are not acquaint
ed with you.
3. You shall send in the money
in advance to give us a chance to
get the goods from the factory with
your money; meanwhile you will
have to wait patiently a few weeks
because that is our business
method.
4. Send us your money and we
will skin you on the quality of the
goods.
5. You shall buy your church
bells and interior church fixtures
from us and forward the money in1
advance, for that is our business
method.
6. You shall collect from the
business men in your vicinity as
much money as you can get for
the benefit of your churches. Al
though we get more money from
you than they do, still it is against
our rules to donate money for
building country churches.
7. You shall buy your too's
from us and be your own mechanic
in order to drive the mechanic
from your vicinity, for we wish it
so.
8. You will induce your neigh
bor to buy everything from us, as
we have room for more money.
9. You shall often look at the
beautiful pictures in our catalogue
so your wishes will increase and
you will send in a big order, al
though you are not in immediate
need of the goods, otherwise you
might have some money left to
buy necessary goods from your
local merchant.
10. " You shall have the mer
chants that -repair the goods you
buy from us to book the bill, so
that you can send the money for
his labor to us for new goods,
otherwise he will not notice our in
fluence. 11. You shall believe in us in
preference to your local dealers.
12. You shall, in case of acci
dent, sickness or need, apply to
local dealers for aid and credit, as
we do not know you.
