ABERDEEN, Wash., March 2. (Spe
cial.) Deserting their homes at Tahola
, during last night all the relatives and
friends of Fred Pope, the Indian who
' Monday shot and killed Adam Hawk and
Hoh William, fellow tribesmen, have fled
into the woods to join Pope and it is
feared that an lnter-racial war will re
sult. Empty cabins and many missing canoes
told the story today and the situation
greatly hampers the mission of Deputy
United States Marshal J. F. Statter, of
Tacoma, who, after being; delayed on
; the harbor by a stalled passenger train,
' left for Mocltps on a freight this morning
to attempt the arrest of Pope.
The deserting Indians are led - by
Johnny Pope, the 19-year-old eon of the
fugitive. It Is stated on good authority
that Joe Chenoise and his 15-year-old
daughter, whom Pope was alleged to have
assaulted, were the intended victims for
Pope's bullets Monday, when he attacked
the wagon in which the party was driv
ing to Moclips.
Friends of Pope say that the slayer
was enraged at the reports which Che
no tee and others are said to have spread
and goaded to desperation attempted to.
put the cause of his trouble out of his
way. Hawk was a brother-in-law of
Pope, their wives being sisters.
Alloting Agent Archer, of this city,
who went to the reservation today got
word through to this city tonight that
the Indians were quiet at present but
that the result ' when the two factions
are brought face to face is problematical.
S. G. Morse, of this city, for many years
Indian agent and who Is familiar with
the Quinault territory, says that Pope
and his band can elude capture for
months If they desire.

Hawk. William and Washington, three
; policemen, and found Pope with his face
j fcrtween his hands and Bitting in a chair.
Without speaking to the Indian, Chenoise
said he had his daughter gather her be
longings and depart with him. From the
time of entering until leaving, not a word
was spoken to Pope by any of the party
nor did he address the visitors, said
Chenoise. .
The father of the girl then stated that
he believed Pope thought he was going
to the police to have Pope arrested and
started on his murderous trip to the
beach and William's house. It is said

before surrenderlrg, although the officials
... believe he will come in voluntarily when

N. P. MUST PAY ITS TAXES
Albany Secures Approval of Survey
of Scripped! Land.
ALBANY, Or., March 2. (Special.)
If efforts now being made by the Al-
Dl
bany Commercial Club are successful, the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company will
soon be compelled to pay taxes on 21.160
acres of the best timber land In the world
on which it has escaped taxation for
seven years.
In 1903 the Northern Pacific filed scrip
on the best timber land In townships 10.
11 and 12, south, range 4 east, in Linn
County.- Since then the company has
held the land as against all claimants but
the Government surveys have never been
approved and accordingly patents were
never Issued.
It was therefore Impossible to levy and
collect taxes on the land. For several
years County ' Assessor D. B. McKnight
listed the lands on the tax roll. Dut the
company allowed the taxes to ' become
delinquent. This clouded the company's
title but It calmly ignored the. .entire
matter. , .
- The Albany Commercial Club took the
matter up with the Oregon delegation In
Congress and as a result the survey of
township 10 south, range 4 ast, was ap
proved about three weeks ago. This
township contains oply 400 acres of the
Northern Pacific -lands.- The .remaining
20.760 acres are in -townships 11 and 12,

BRIDGE CRY HEARD
Tri-County Push Club Paves
Way for Action.
BUTTEVILLE IS IN FAVOR
Marion, Yamhill and Clackamas
Open Campaign for Legislation
for Steel Crossway Over '
Willamette River.
SALEM, Or.. March, 2. (Special.)
The Tri-County Push Club has been or
ganised to secure the enactment of leg
islation that will pave the way for the
construction of a modern steel bridge
across the Willamette River at
Butteville. The bridge propaganda
is already being exploited in Marion,
Tamhill and Clackamas counties, and
a committee has been appointed by
the Push Club to Invade Washington
County and enlist the support of Its
people in the plan.
Butteville is considered the best place
for the bridge, because the river banks
at this- point are about 80 feet high, and
because there is a good road from Sa
lem on the east side of the river and
a good road from Butteville to Port
land on the west side. A bridge would
connect the interrupted highway at this
point and leave a fairly good wagon
road from Portland to the capital.
Survey Made at Butteville.
Another point urged In favor of
Butteville for the bridge Is that the
Oregon Electric Railway engineers sur
veyed a line through that place, and. It
Is said, found an excellent point for
bridging the stream.
The Push Club has held several meet
ings to arouse enthusiasm for its project.
The last meeting was held at Butteville
Saturday evening and in spite of the
storm that was raging, the farmers came
from several miles in all directions to
hear good roads and bridges discussed.
County Judge William Bushey, of Marion
County, talked on good roads. Colonel E.
Hofer, of Salem, discussed the need of
co-operation in securing public improve
ments; L. R. Webster, of Portland, out
Jlned the plan of campaign of the Oregon
Good Roads Association for obtaining a
constitutional amendment permitting the
counties to bond for a complete system
of rock roads.
Will E. Purdy; president of the puBh
club, presided, and made an earnest talk
on the need of a bridge at Butteville,
pointing out the fact that there is now
no bridge over the Willamette between
Salem and Oregon City. A feature of
the meeting and of the dance and enter
tainment that followed was the music by
the Parrott band, every, member of which,
is a member of the Parrott family.
Hard-Surface Highway Planned.
The push club has the lumber on the
ground and this week will build a plank
sidewalk along the county road the en
tire two miles from Butteville to Chop
punish, the nearest point on the Oregon
Electric. Later it la proposed to build
a hard-surface highway between these
points.
The rich French Prairie to the east of
Butteville and .the fertile hills . on the
west are being cut up into small tracts
end fruit culture is rapidly supplanting
the growing of hops.
"Hood River hasn't anything on us,"
declared one of the Butteville boosters
Saturday evening, and in proof of his
assertion cited the case of A. J. Stevens,
living west of the village, who cleared
$615 on one acre' of apples in 1909. This
yield is not considered remarkable in
this part of the Willamette Valley.
The next meeting of the push club will
be held at Aurora, to be followed at fre
quent Intervals by get-eogether sessions
throughout Marion, Yamhill, Clackamas
and Washington counties. The officers of
the club are Will E; Purdy, president;
Henry Spiney, treasurer; R. Woolworth,
vice-president.

Pioneer Resident of Castle Rock
Country, Samuel D. Laughlin,
Buried Near Farm Home.
CASTLE ROCK, Wash., March 2.
(Special.) Only an apparently insignifi
cant sliver in his thumb which was pulled
out, and no further attention paid to it.
caused the death of Samuel D. Laugh
lin, a pioneer resident of this vicinity,
who died last week in a Portland hospital.
The thumb began to swell soon after
the eliver was removed, howevep. and
was quite painful, but he refused t call
a doctor, thinking he could cure it him
self. His condition, became so serious,
however, that the doctor pronounced Mr.
Laughlin in a dangerous condition from
blood-poisoning and ordered his removal
to Portland at once, where an operation
was performed, but in vain.
The body was brought to this city and
taken to his home four miles north of
here, and on Sunday the Masonic
lodge of this city, of which he was a
charter member, went to his home and
conducted the funeral services.
Mr. Laughlin was born near Linn,
Osage County, Missouri, May 28, 1843. be

Sermon by F. E. Oliver.
Y. M. C. A. INVITES SPEECH
V. of O. Men Present Petition to
Prevent Evangelist, Who Attacked
Institution, From Address
ing Student Body Friday.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON'. Eugene,
March 2. (Special.) If Evangelist French
E. Oliver persists in his intention of
speaking on the University of Oregon
campus Friday evening in response to the
invitation Issued to him by a few mem
bers of the etudent Y. M. C. A., which,
stirred up such a storm of protest among
students yesterday,, his meeting will ba
generally boycotted.
This was the simple remedy discussed
on the campus and which the Oregon
Emerald, the student body publication,
advocated officially In a ptinging editorial
against the preacher and his methods.
Mr. Oliver's attacks on the university as
"rotten" and a place to be "wiped out or
cleaned out" because some of the stu
dents and faculty members are outside of
the pale- of orthodoxy, and his abuse of
President Taft on the ground of his reli
gion, alone have caused deep feeling
against his speaking on the college,
grounds.
Many Sign Protest.
The real sentiment of the students
against Oliver was Indicated when the
petition of protest against the Invita
tion isued by the Y. M. C. A. was pre
sented yesterday with nearly 175 signa
tures attached, to President Campbell.
A large majority of the men- in the
college including many Y. M. C. A.
members signed the paper. in inci
dent has put the Y. M. C. A. in the di
lema of having to withdraw their invi
tation or of hearing' Evangelist Oliver's
address regardless of the student bady.
The Emerald editorial follows:
"After vile language the revivalist
has aplled to the University and all
things herewith connected, it is sur
prising that he should risk contamina
tion by actually coming onto the cam
pus and associating with the unregen
erate. After the slanders and abuse he
has heaped upon us it is equally
strange that we should care to listen
to him or that the authorities should
allow him on the grounds.

"This type thrives on persecution. It

needed, the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten
and strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such
as physicians would sanction, because its component parts are
known to be wholesome and the remedy itself free 'from every
objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents,
well informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones
enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its bene
ficial effects, is Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna and for the
same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by the
fathers and mothers.
If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines when
medicines are not needed, and when nature requires assistance in
the- way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and
gentle Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna. As you value the
health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which
unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to increase their profits.
Please to remember, the full name of the Company California Fig
Syrup Co. is printed on the front of every package. To get its
beneficial affects it is necessary to purchase the genuine only.

Remedies are Needed
Were we perfect, which we are not, medicines would
not often be needed. But since our systems have be
come weakened, impaired and broken down through
indiscretions which have gone on from the early ages,
through countless generations, remedies ore needed to
aid Nature in correcting our inherited and otherwise
acquired weaknesses. To reach the seat of stomach
weakness and consequent digestive troubles, there is
nothing so good as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery, a glyceric compound, extracted from native medic
inal roots sold for over forty years with great satisfaction to all users. For
Weak Stomach, Biliousness, Liver Complaint, Pain in the Stomach after eating,
Heartburn, Bad Breath, Belching of food, Chronic Diarrhea and other Intestinal
Derangements, the "Discovery" is time-proven and most efficient remedy.

medicine of known composition, not even though the urgent dealer may
thereby make a little bigger pro6t.
