"It is to laugh." said Fouts after he
reached the Jail. "John Jeffrey said
that he would take the stand as soon

arrested me, but I guess he hasn't
quit going yet."
A little later Jeffrey showed up at

took place.
"Hello. Sen.
"Hello. John."
"Do any speaking after I left, John?"
"No, I didn't. I was out hustling ball

Fouts laughed.
"I asked the officers Just where they
wanted the street kept clear and they
told me," said Fouts. "I asked the

PRINEVILLE, Or.. Aug. 18. .(Spe

Crook County ranch, near this city, was
deeply engrossed today reading and
answering a mass of telegrams and
letters from all parts of the United
States, offering the support . bf the
writers In a fight for a political
cleansing of New York.
A telegram waa received direct from
Governor Sulzer. The Governor said:
"Your offer Is appreciated by those
who want honest government. The
battle Is worthy of your best efforts.
Answer quick when and where we can
confer."
Mr. Lawson had made, no reply late
today, but indicated that he would au
thorize his secretary to confer with the
Governor and act In his stead.
Another telegram from one of the
leading reformers of New York, whose
name Mr. Lawson will not make pub
lic at present, reads: "1 will enlist in
the fight for honest government and
the destruction of Tammany. I hear
tily congratulate vou on your splendid
offer to lead the fight."

language that might be misinterpreted
here In the westc "For Christ's sake,
come here and help the people. Gov
ernor's advisers spiritless. Am In posi
tion to guarantee quick victory. I
want neither credit nor cash, but your
directive genius. Act quickly or oppor
tunity lost."

"The Knickerbocker Press Sunday Is
calling on the big, true-hearted, patrl
ic men in the whole country to form a
committee to-j-ecelve contributions and
perfect an organization as you sug
gested, to drive graft out of our public
life and punish the murders of our po
litical system. The conspiracy to grab
the government of New York Is the
greatest since tho world began, and is
the confirmation of well-laid plans to
abolish In fact constitutional govern
ment In the United States."
'I ought to be on the firing line,"
said Mr. Lawson. "All these other com
munications are In the same vein; but
It Is impossible for me to go at this
time. When I left Boston ten days ago
I was about all In. For eight months 1
have been working about 24 hours a
day. I must have a few weeks rest.
"Tomorrow I shall go to the Blue
Mountains and be out of touch with
the world for eight days."
Mr. Lawson la suffering from a cold

BANDON ROAD RALLYBIGj
DELKGATIOXS FROM FIVE SEC
TIOXS COXVEXE. '
Bridge Shows Great Enthusiasm In
Sleeting and Coo, utile Sends
Business Men and Band. .
BANDON. Or. Aug. 18. (Special.)
The third good roads rally of the coun
ty was held Saturday night in Ban
don, at Commercial Club Hall. This
strles of meetings began with one at
Marshfleld, followed by a meeting at
Coqullle and then at Bandon, all with
in the last six weeks.
Delegations from Bridge, Marshfleld,
North. Bend. Myrtle Point and Coqullle
were present. Mayor Morrison, of Co
quille, president of the Coos County
Good Roads Association, presided.
George Starr, of Bridge, and vice-president
of the association, was present
with a large delegation from the lit
tle town of Bridge. The Bridge com
munity, manifested great Interest in
the question of roads and by their dem
onstratlon last evening showed great
enthusiasm. They carried, two large
flags, which announced that they were
for good roads.
'"One of these flags." said Mr. Starr,
"was made by a man who is deaf,
dumb and blind. The blue background
on the upper part of the flag repre
sents Qoaa County. The seven stars,
the towns of Coos County, working
for good roads; the red bars represent
the two port commissions, the one at
Marshfleld and the other at Myrtle
Point: and the white bar between the
two red represents the port commis
nlon of Bandon, to be authorized by the
election August 27.
Coqullle sent about half of its busi
ness men. and with them the Coqullle
band.
The question at Issue at these meet
ings Is one of taxation for the purpose
of building good roads and how this
tax will he distributed through the
county. The County Court will be
asked to call an election, but It is up to
the association to determine how the
tax will be prorated and how much
levied before the election is called. It
Is proposed by the association to build
a hard-surface road from the Douglas
County line to North' Fork bridge, a
short distance below Myrtle Point, and
from North Fork bridge to Coqullle,
then branching, one line leading to J
Bandon and on to Curry County line,
and the other branch leading to Marsh
field. The election will be called prob
ably in September, and the chances are
that it will carry judging from the
enthusiasm displayed at these county
road meetings.
