sion for the exhibit and building of
the Panama-Pacific Exposition, for

ing and bringing to the Southern Pa
cific tracks, two pine logs to be the

Farmer Slay Wife, Then Self
Sandy. To the belief that his wife
was "crazy" Is laid the cause of a
tragedy enacted seven miles from here
when Francis McCabe, aged 34, shot
and killed his wife, Amanda Kuhn Mc
Cabe, aged 24, went to the home of
hia parents, a quarter of a mile dis
tant, told of the crime he had commit
ted, kissed his 6-year-old son, fled
from his father's house and returned
to his own, where he fired tour Bhots
into his breast and head, dying in
' stantly.
WILL BOOSTJilGHWAY
Governor West Hopes to Get County
And Railroad Officials Together
Salem. Further steps to straighten
out the difficulties that have hindered
the completion of the Columbia river
wagon road from Portland to The
Dalles, will be taken by Governor
West, when he expects to arrange
meeting between the county court at
Hood River and the representatives
of the O.-W. R. & N. railroad company.
The question of right of way has
blocked the building of the road,
which, when completed will be one of
the scenic highways of the state. In
one place it is necessary to parallel
the railroad on the Company's right
of way, and so far the company has
withheld its consent for the highway
to occupy any of its ground, giving as
a reason that it would interfere with
double tracking its line. '
Klamath Expected to Vote Bonds
Klamath. There will be some op
position to the $300,000 bond issue to
be voted on next month for county
roads, but there is now every indica
tion that the bonds will be voted by
a large majority.
If the bonds are voted the lakeshore
boulevard along the east side of Lake
Ewauna will become a reality. This
will open a direct route to a large
fanning area, and will also make one
of the most pleasant driveways in the
Klamath country.
Election Frauds Charged by Wets
Eugene. Alleging gross fraud and
intimidation on the part of agents of
Governor West during the progress
of the recent local option election in
Springfield, T. C. Luckey, owner of
one of the saloons there, has filed a
suit in the circuit court here asking
that the county court be enjoined
from canvassing the results of the
election or from declaring that Spring
field is prohibition territory.
Rose Planting Is Begun
Medford. Fifteen thousand rose
cuttings have been distributed to the
school children of Medford by mem
bers of the Greater Medford Club as
the beginning of a campaign looking
toward establishing a rose festival as
a permanent feature in this city.'
Huntington Raid Made
Huntington. Direct effect of Gov
ernor West's activity in Baker county
was felt here when Ed Hanson, town
marshal and deputy sheriff, raided the
West Hotel, arrested the proprietor,
A. H. Clark, on a charge of conduct
ing a disorderly resort.
Delinquencies Are Few

OREGON -WETS" CONTEST
Question of Legality of Election Rais
ed in Local Option Elections
Portland. Though IS Oregon towns
classed previously as "wet" voted
"dry" at local option elections held in
conjunction with the special state ref
erendum election on Tuesday, Novem
ber 4, contests have been taken into
court in six of the towns.'
These towns arc Salem, Harrtsburg,
Oregon City, Springfield, Gresham
and Hlltsboro. All are In different
counties.
In general, the main point of attack
in each case is the same that the
local option election was illegal be
cause it did not take place on the date
of a general state or a city election,
but at a special election called merely
to pass on questions submitted under
referendum.

surance of seeing that the laws are
enforced."
