The Governor will arrange to see that

the clerical work that la needed. If the

Confession of Artilleryman Kevoais
Organised System to Sell Co
caine to Victims.
" ASTORIA. Or.. Sept. 17. (Special.)
Startling disclosures made by mem
bers of the 14th Company of Artillery
stationed at Fort Stevens. Or., makes It
evident that the practice of using
drugs has enslaved members of this or
ganization beyond hope of recovery.
P. T. McMahon. of thla Company, haa
made a detailed confession Involving
one druggist and two women. He has
used the drug for a number of years, he
said. About 10 men have been placed
on a suspected list apd several of this
number are non-commissioned officers
In good standing In the company. From
McMahon's confession and admis
sions of other members of the com
pany It Is believed a regularly or
ganised band of cocaine fiends who
buy, distribute and arrange the sale of
the drug, ara preying on the soldiers.
Some of the accused admitted that,
though they were not addicted to the
vice. It had been repeatedly urged upon
them when In Astoria to try some of
the dream stuff. Others admitted that
out of curiosity they had been pre
vailed ipon to try the dope. Tha bal
ance of their month's pay dleappeared
vary mysteriously on such occasions,
they said.

searching all aspects, of the case and

TENDLETON". Or.. Sept. 17. (Spe
cial.) "Because I am a negro, the
bucking contest Judges Jobbed me."
This tii the declaration of "Nigger"
George Fletcher, runner-up in the
championship of the Northwest In tha
burking horse contest of the Pendle
ton Round-I'p.
And with Fletcher seems to be gen
eral sentiment. It Is asserted the col
ored man was denied the championship
by reason of his color solely.
John Spain, of Union County. Or., was
awarded the championship after he,
Fletcher and Jack Sundown, an Indian,
had been selected to contest for the
honor.

Swcenev Fletcher made by far the
finest showing of the day.
"Spain pulled leather when his horse
fell over the fence," said Fletcher. "My
horse fell over the same way and I did
not -null leather." I know I am entitled
to the championship and I believe the
Judges Jobbed me on purpose."
"I am perfectly satlsnea wun mo
award." declared Spain this evening.
"I figure that If the Judges made the
award to me. I must have won it and
I am willing to let it go at that."
Raley Make Comment.
Rov Ralev. president of the Round-
TJp Association, declares that In hts
opinion the Judge might have been in
Judicious, but that they had not in
tended to show any preferences.
"We picked three men from widely
different parts of the country," eaid
Mr. Kalev. "They were Silvester Tlb-
betts. of Wallowa, Or.; Ed. Gilson, of
Rltzvllle. Wash- and J. McGrain. of
Lewlston, Idaho. They are recognized
by everyone as Judges of riding and
horses. If they say that Fletcher did
not win he did not win.
"I cannot deny that popular senti
ment Is vastly In favor of Fletcher, but
then the Round-Up Association should
not be blamed for the faults. If any
were committed by the Judges."
Further unpleasantness wa added to
themixup by the refusal of the Round
up Association to allow Long Tom, the
horse that it Is asserted no man can
ride without "pulling leather," to be
ridden by George Fletcher to settle a
bet of $250 between backers of the
rivals.
Taylor Stop Performance.
Early In the afternoon Sheriff Tay
lor, one of the officers of the Associa
tion, asserted that the Oregon feed
yards corral could not be used for a
benefit performance of bucking for
Fletcher on the ground that the corral
was leased by the Round-Up Associa
tion. A little affair had been arranged
there and the spectators had gathered
after paying admission. ,
Frederick Steiwer. one of the board
of directors, summed up the situation;
he said: "Had any three men In Pen
dleton been JudKes of that contest they
would have hesitated to make the
award to Fletcher had he rightly de
served It. In my opinion, however, tne
Judges, who know bucking:, were right.
Yet. they took the wrong procedure.
Had they ordered Fletcher to ride
Lightfoot It is very probable he would
have "pulled leather.' as the horse is
not suited to his riding.
"If the Judges were prejudiced
against Fletcher's color, they could
have eliminated him from the finals as
his riding had not been remarkable.
Many do not like Fletcher's style of
riding. He bounces about In his saddle
and does not 'scratch' his broncho. This
Spain did. Many good Judges of riding
eay Spain "pulled leather.' Others
equally aa good assert he did not.
'It was announced the decision was to
be made on the finals. If the decision
were made on that and Fletcher not or
dered to ride again there could have
been no question of the Justice of the
award."
"Nigger" George's popularity arises
from the fact that If at any time a
"bad" horse Is brought Into Pendleton
from anywhere be can be pursuaded to
tackle the animal for $5 and the im
pression Is general be can ride any
thing. However, Pendleton Is vastly
excited over the affair, it being the
one subject of discussion by the crowds
still here.
president Raley, of the Round-Up
Association, announced tonight the
total attendance at the three days of
the Round-Up as 62.618 persons.
