Exciting Chase Through the
Tillamook Brush.
DOG, PROVES . A GOOD ALLY
Mrs. M. J. Cone Found Her Clothing
Cumbersome In the Rapid Pur
suit, So She Discards Much
of It on the Run.
TILLAMOOK. Or., Oct. 2 (Special.)
Mrs. M. J. Cone, who lives with her
husband at Netarts, and who rents the
well-known Maxwell place at the
rocks on Netarts Beach, showed Sat
urday that she was a woman of cour
age and pluck in an exciting bear
chase. She had' gone, to the Maxwell
place, and returning home alone on
horseback, and having as much garden
truck as she could carry, she game
across a large bear in her way.'
Avoiding the bear as much as pos
sible. Mrs. Cone drove her horse at full
gallop to her home, and obtaining a
32-40 Winchester and a shepherd dog,
she returned to the place where she
had seen the bear. The beast was
soon located at the sheep-corral, and
from that time on Mrs. Cone had a
highly-exciting time. Getting within
close range kof the bear, she tired her
first shot at the . animal, which broke
its fore leu. The wounded beast made
off on three legs.
Mrs. Cone followed it up and fired
again at close range, the bullet strik
ing the bear in the nose and coming
out at the side of the head. - For some
time the bear wallowed around with
Mrs. Cone and the dog after it. when
it dashed off into the thick brush. This
did not daunt Mrs. Cone in the least,
for she followed as fast as her clothes
would permit, some of which she threw
off so as not to impede her progress.
Every once In a while she came up
with the bear, and did not miss an op
portunity to fire. For over a mile she
chased her quarry in the thick brush,
and succeeded in hitting the animal
four times. The dog, nipping at the
bear'6 heels, forced him to take to a
log, when a desperate fight occurred
between the two animals. The bear
kept fanning the dog off with its paw.
Mrs. Cone came up and, at about 15
feet distance, took aim and shot the
bear in the breast. The bear fell off
the log and the do Jumped on it. when
another savage fight commenced. At
tacking the dog, the bear caught it by
the mouth and broke its under jaw.
Mrs. Cone saw that something had to
be done immediately, with the dog un
der the bear and likely to be killed, so
she approached with her gun, while the
tight was going on, and placed the
muzzle at the back of the bear and
fired. This shot ended the battle.
Mrs. cone retraced her steps out of
the brush and told her husband
and others what had occurred. Out
of nine shots fired, Beven had taken
effect. The bear was a large one, and
when dressed, weighed 337 pounds.
AV. S. U'REX IS VERY WILLING
If the People Demand It He Will Ac
cept United States Senatorship.
OREGON CITY, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.)
"I have never given an interview on
the question of my 'Senatorial boom,' and
I do not say 'pshaw' in reply to the sug
gestion," said W. S. U'Ren, of this city,
who was recently suggested by a Port
land paper as a likely candidate to suc
ceed United States Senator C. vV. Fulton
In 190S. About the same time an alleged
Interview from Mr. U'Ren on the same
subject was published in an Oregon City
paper. These published reports have been
followed by editorial comments of such
a character that Mr. U'Ren's true posi
tion with relation to the subject may be
considered of interest. When seen today,
he said:
I am not the kind of politician who expects
to succeed by conC(llns my plans. As to
running against Senator Fulton in 1908, I have
no plans. That any one should consider mo
worthy of the office, of United States Senator
Is high honor and for that I am grateful.
But I realize the advantages Senator Fulton
will have against all-comers in that race. If
he wishes to be a candidate before the people
to succeed himself.
One of my dreams has been that I shall
live to see nominations for office in. all po
litical parties seeking men in Oregon, Instead
of men seeking nominations, and this even
for such offices as Governor and United States
Senator. I never dVeamed, that this would
be true as early as in08, and I am not dream
Ins even now that I shall then be called on
to accept the Republican nomination for the
office of United States Senator. In saying
this, I do not wish to be understood that I
should not. be as proud of the honor as any
other man : in Oregon, for I am sure no one
In the state covets more than I do the op
portunity to give my whole attention to pub
lic Questions.
I shall continue to give as much time as
I can spare to presenting to the people of Ore
gon and to their Legislature measures that
have been tried in other states and counties
that, in my judgment, are likely to be of value
to the people of this state. The consideration
of such measures by the people and the Leg
islature Is high honor, while the adoption and
succwful operation of any I think is per
sonal success. If the Republicans of Oregon
at any time think I am worthy of the party
nomination for United States Senator and the
people think I am worth trying In the office,
they have the power to put me in that posi
tion. In the meantime I shall neither pull
secret wires nor scheme secret schemes to get
the office. Possibly I am Influenced some
what in this by strong faith that, whatever
others may do, I cannot get an office by run
ning after it.

County and City Superintendents to
Meet at Salem.
SALEM, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.) The De
partment of Superintendence of the Ore
gon State Teachers' Association will hold

intendents of Schools and all public school
principals. Superintendent E. T. Moores,
of Marlon County, ie president and George
W. Dcnman. of Clackamas, secretary.
There is no set programme for the meet
ing, but there will be a general discus
sion of the present status of school laws
and quite likely a committee will be ap
pointed to draft bills for such laws r.a
may be agreed upon as needed for the ad
vancement of the cause of the public
schools of Oregon.
Speaking today of legislation. Superin
tendent of Public Instruction J. H. Ack
erman remarked that the spirit of the
people -who control educational affairs is
very frequently of more consequence than
the laws themeelvcs. and in this connec
tion he mentioned the action of the Coun
ty Court of Lake County in levying an an
nual tax for school purposes aggregating
$11 per capita, whereas the law requires a
levy equal to only J6 per capita. In the
same county a levy of 30 cents per caolta
was made for library purposes, although
the law requires only 10 cents. This
means that Lake County, though one of
Watchman Shoots Emmett Marshal.
BOISE, Idaho, Oct. 2. (Special.)
At Emmett last night City Marshal W.
B. Banks was shot by a young man
named Ralph Black. The latter was
acting as watchman in a fruit-packing
house. During the night some hood
lums threw stones at the place. The
watchman fired through the roof to
frighten them.
The Marshal, hearing the shots, went
to investigate. He started to enter the
building, when the watchman fired,
thinking he was one of the attacking
party. One shot struck the Marshal in
the thigh, causing an ugly wound. The
shooter has been admitted to bail in
J2500.
Levy Reduced in Baker County.
BAKER CITY, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.)
Baker's tax levy this year will be 30 mills
less than half that in Baker City last
year, while in the country districts the
levy this year will be about one-third of
that of last. The County Court has based
an estimate, and although the levy has
not been determined, it may be stated
that the amount as computed upon the
valuations for this year will be only
about one-half of that last year. In the
city Itself 30 mills will take the place of
67, which was paid in Baker last year.
HMRKS OH SNYDER'S SKULL
BULLET RANGED UPWARD FROM
RIGHT TEMPLE. .
Dental Work Shows FJne Workman
ship and Edged. Tool Left
Traces on the Bones.
HILLSBORO, Oh., Oct.- 2 (Special.)
A. L. Croend. one of the jurors in the
Inquest case of Carey M. Snyder, today
brought in the remains, and stated to the
acting Coroner that he had found an ad
ditional $1.65, which had slipped out of
Snyder's clothes when the skeleton was
being placed in a box for transportation.
The spot where Snyder was found is
about 60 yards from the main traveled
road into Portland. The skull shows no
evidence of abrasions, although on two
places it looks as though at some time
it had been struck by. an edged tool. The
bullet entered just above the right tem
ple and came out at the opposite side,
slightly elevating .as. it took its course.
The remains were taken to the Patter
son undertaking parlors, where they will
be held until advices are received from
Kansas City. The skull will be held here
for a time In order more thoroughly to
identify the body. The teeth had had a
great deal of dental work and it was of
high-class workmanship. The front teeth
protruded slightly, and were rather large.
The skull has every contour of that of
a brother of Snyder, who was killed in a
Kansas City street-car accident prior to
his death, and a clipping of the report
of the accident, with the brother's half
tone, was found in Snyder's effects on
his body. Snyder's notebooks were in
his coat pocket, and in these were bills
from C. S. Reynolds, the Mountaindale
merchant, with whom the Snyders dealt.

0. R. & N. Will Soon Build a
Branch Line.
SURVEY IS COMPLETED
As Soon as All the , Right of Way
Has Been Secured the Work
, on the Road Will Be
Commenced.
PENDLETON, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.)
That the Pilot Rock branch of the' O. R.
& N. will be built within a reasonable
time is the assurance given the people of
that place by General Manager J. P.
O'Brien, of the O. R. & N. system, who
has just returned to Pendleton from a
trip over the survey of the branch line
to the town of Pilot Rock. O'Brien was
accompanied by J. W. Morrow, tax ' and
land agent of the O. R. &' N., and to
gether they closely Inspected the line of
the proposed road and investigated the
business prospects of that community,
and, after making their observation, the
people of Pilot Rock were assured by the
officials that the branch was a certainty.
It. is hoped to secure the remainder of
the right of way 'soon, that actual work
may begin. The line will have a junction
with the main line of the O. R. & N. near
the mouth of Birch Creek, and the branch
trains will use the main line between the
junction and this city. Pendleton will be
the starting point for trains and will be
the actual junction, although the switch
will be placed two miles west of the city
for convenience and to save building that
much needless track for the branch.
The officials were well pleased with the
outlook of the district surrounding Pilot
Rock, and on their return to this city
expressed the belief that portions of that
country would develop into as rich and
productive land as is found anywhere In
the county, or In the Inland Empire.
KELSO DEXIES KNOWLEDGE
County Seat Removal Campaign in
Hands. of Reputable Citizens.
KELSO, Wash., Oct. 2. in- the Octo
ber 2d edition of The Morning Ore
gonian there appears an article dated
Castle Rock, Wash.,' Oct. 1, and saying
that a number of Castle Rock's peti
tions had been stolen, presumably by
some one in the employ of Kelso.
The management of Kelso's cam
paign for the removal of the county
seat from Kalama to Kelso, in Cowlitz
County, Wasn., is in the hands of seven
reputable business men of Kelso, and
this committee absolutely denies all
knowledge of the above affair and chal
lenges the man in the dark who wrote
it to come out and substantiate it.
The campaign for Kelso for the
county seat of Cowlitz County, Wash.,
has been carried on in a. fair and
square, business-like manner, and on
the issue that the voters want the
county seat changed to a more central
location and to a town where the great
est number would be pleased to have
the seat of civil government.
As the men who circulated the Castle
Rock petition . openly announce that
they do not expect to win themselves
but simply to beat Kelsq, it would seem
that the black-legging is on the other
foot.

BEST EVIDENCE KEPT QUIET
Adams Trial Will Bring Out Sensa
tions, Says Detective McParJand.
BOISE. Idaho, Oct. 2. (Special.)
James McParland, Western manager of
the Pinkerton Detective Agency, re
turned today from Wallace, where he
was in attendance upon the hearing
of Steve Adams on the charge of mur
dering Fred Tyler. In referring to the
fact that Adams had been bound over
for trial, McParland said this evening:
"There was plenty of evidence at
hand to make' it necessary to hold
Adams for trial, and there was plenty
more forthcoming had it been neces
sary tp present it. In fact, not over
one-third of the evidence in the hands
of the state was presented at the pre
liminary examination. The strongest
evidence against Adums has not been
made public, and now it will not be
necessary to present it until the trial.
I have every reason to believe that the
overland route chosen to take Adams
to Wallace was the only course that
could have been taken to avoid
trouble.
"Attorney Darrow certainly had
things framed to tangle things up. He
is decidedly tricky, and we took no
chances with him."

NEWBERG, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.) This
is convention week for the State W. C. T.
U., and the delegates of this representa

royally entertained by. the people of New

Oregon?
