Ha arranges the escort of tha Presi

Guard organization In tha place visited.
It is Mr. Wheeler's task to assign the
President's detail. In caaea where
there are regular troops present or
near they are given the post of honor,
onless there hsnpens to be present a
rra-k organisation like squadron A
of New York, the Black Troop of Cleve
land, the Philadelphia City Troop, or
Kssex Troop of Newark. N. J., then
these organisations get the ylum. The
civil escort in the parade Is more dif
ficult than the military to place. There
may be trade bodies, labor unions or
lodges uniformed and ready to partici
pate. It is tip to Arbitrator Wheeler
to get all of them In line and make
each organization feel that It has the
post of honor. He usually accomplishes
this. This programme Is followed by
Mr. Wheeler In every city the Presi
dent visits.
Taft Oeareed Beat.
President Taft is looked upon as tha
best-guarded chief executive that the
country has ever had. Each trip la
made better by taking advantage of the
experience of the previous one. because
Wheeler and i-loan. who Is the chief of
the Whlto House force. In making up a
new schedule make a particular effort
to perfect the weak points of the pre
vious trip. This progresa has been
made since the time that President tie.
Klnley was assassinated In Buffalo in
1901. Making preparatlona In advance
originated with President Ttoosevelfa
administration, and has steadily ad
vanced until secret service men say
that it Is almost safe to presume that
the President will complete his trip
without running any danger, unless it
la from a railroad accident, and every
precaution is taken to prevent that
from happening.
In this direction, for example, no of
tha most Interesting features of Mr.
Wheeler s work is with the railroads,
particularly those west of Chicago. On
all the lines running west of Chicago
tha heads of the roads give Mr. Wheel
er carte blanche in drawing upon the
employes of the road to make the
President's traveling over the road a
trip of safety and pleasure. On the last
big trip there was a track walker
every half mile on the roads over whlrU
the President traveled through the
Rockies. At every switch a man was
stationed for hours before and until the
President's train had passed. At term
inals every railroad detective available
was placed on duty subject to the or
ders of Mr. Wheeler. Every time the
President's train ran onto a new con
nection the private car of aome of the
railroad officials, containing either the
general superintendent or the presi
dent, and aometlmes both, met the
President and had the car hitched onto
the President's train. This alwaye as
sured a right of way for the train, al
though It was running as a section.
W seller's Career Notable.
Luclen Wheeler haa had a moat In
teresting career. He waa born In Iowa
and received his education In the
schools of Cedar Rapids and among the
people of the whole United States. He
Is 35 years old. and Is stocklly built,
weighing exactly 175 pounds stripped.
In his stocking feet he measures i feet
Inches In height. He has the reputa
tion of being one of the strongest men
physically In the service. His merve baa
been tested In many ways and never
has been found wanting. Hla greatest
achievement In the service wss the
arrest of two murderers In Colorado
who were armed and said they would
not be taken alive. "Jar" arrested
them by walking In on them when they
had him covered with their guns and
telling them they could not hit him
If they shot. His sally forced their
nerve to oose out their pores and their
guna to drop. It Is said hean throw a
man his own weight over his head with
a waist hold. "Jack la a man" la tha
way bis colleaguea slse him up.

about his domain he does It with less
Initial labor, bat with more pomp, cer

Life of Robert V. Cresap.

Virginia Grandfather of Clark
County Pioneer Wlna Kamo
Reaching Through History.
BT OLEXN N. RANCK.
The recent death of Robert V.
Cresap, at Vancouver. Waah.. calls
vividly to mind the many rapid and
wonderful changres which have coma
over the Pacific Northwest In the last
half-century. Mr. Cresap waa not only
a rallant veteran of the Civil War, but
waa also a fearless frontiersman and
Indian lighter in many conflicts with
the redraen in Creron and Washington
60 years go. Where hla children hear
the peaceful bum of Industry and the
scream of the locomotive, he heard the
war-cry of the painted warriors.
He waa born near Upper Sandusky,
Ohio. April 14. 183S. moved to Illinois
In 1890. and ; "crossed the plains" to
the Pacific Coaat - In 185, living- for
a while In Jacksonville. Oregon. Mr.
Cresap took part In Indian campaigns
In Oregon, Idaho and Washlnyton. and
aerved In the army during- the four
yeara of the Rebellion, all his service
being In the Northwest. In ha
settled at Battle Ground, Clark County.
Washington, being one of tha early
pioneers and backwoodsman of that
locality. Hera be married, cleared hla
farm and spent the remainder of hla
active Ufa. Ha passed away In this
county at tha home of hla son, tharlCt
Cresap. on August 81. lill. at tha aga
of 76 years.
Aaeestars Are Fteaeera.
Mr. Cresap'a great grandfather. Colo
nel Michael Cresap. waa one of tha
beat-known backwoodsmen along tha
Ohio and the family has an unbroken
record of nearly 100 yeara aa frontiers
men and Indian' fighters. Thomas
Cresap came to thle country from Eng
land about two centurlea axo and set
tled In Western Maryland, becoming a
leader In his community and an active
member of the Ohio company.
Hla son. Colonel Mlchsel Creaap. was
born In Allegheny County, Maryland,
June I. 1742. He became a hunter and
furtrader and moved west to the Ohio
River, where he estahllshed a settle
ment near Wheeling, W. Vs. He took
command of the ploneera In that vi
cinity, and upon the declaration of hos
tilities against the savages by the dep
uty of Governor Dunmore. in 1774. he
attacked and defeated a party of In
dians In a skirmish on the Ohio. Speak
ing of this period, Theodore Roosevelt.
In "The Winning of the West" says:
, -There were on the border at the mo
ment three or four men whose names
are so Intimately bound up with the
hlstorv of this. war. that they deserve
a brief mention. One wss Michael Cre
sap, a Maryland frontiersman, who had
come to the banks of the Ohio with the
purpose of maklna- a home for his fam
ily. He was of the regular pioneer
type; a good woodsman, sturdy and
brave, a fearless fighter, devoted to his
friends and his country: but. also, when
his blood was heated, and his savage
Instincts fslrly roused. Inclined to re
gard any red man. whether hostile or
friendly, as a being who should be
slain- en sight."
Creaaa Fasaely Aeraeed.
At one time a party of whites treach
erously slew the family of Chief Iogan
(Taa-Jute. on Yellow Creek. Chief
Logan.' who lisd been friendly to the
whites, mlstskenlr accused Cressp as
the leader of the white In that vl
daliy. aa responsible for tha deed. To
messengers from Lord Dunmore the In
dian chieftain made the following pa-the-lc
speech:
"i appeal to any white man to say
If ever he entered Logan's cabin hun
gry and he gave him not meat; If ever
he came cold and n aired and he clothed
him not? During the course of the last
long and bloody war, Logan remained
Idle in hla camp, an advocate for peace.
Such was my love for the whites that
my countrymen pointed as I passed snd
said. 'Logan is the friend of the white
man.' I had even thought to have lived
wlthi you but for the Injuries of one
man. Colonel Cresap, the last Spring,
In cold blood and unprovoked, murdered
all the relations of Logan, not even
sparing my women and children. There
runs not a drop of my blood in the veins
of any living creature. Thla called on
me for revenge. I have sought It. 1
have killed many. I have fully glutted
my vengeance. For my country I re
joice at the beams of peace; but do not
harbor a thought that mine Is the Joy
of fear. Logan never felt fear. He
will not turn on his heel to save his
life. Who Is there to mourn for Lo
gan? Not one."
Thla pathetic speech waa brought
back by the measenger and read to
Governor Dunmore'a backwoods army.
Including Cresap. dark and the other
scouts. Colonel Roosevelt thus de
scribes the scene:
"The tall frontiersmen, lounging in a
circle roundabout, listened to the read
ing of the speech with eager Interest
Rough Indian hatera though they were,
they were so much Impressed by it that
In the evening it waa a common topic
of conversation over their campflres,
and they continually attempted to re
hearse it to 'one another. But they
knew that Greathouse, not Cresap. had
been the offender in the murder of Lo
gan'a family, snd when the speech was
read. George Rogers Clark, turning
round, rallied Cresap at being ao great
a man that the Indians put everything
on his shoulders; whereat Creaap. much
angered, swore that he had a good
mind to tomahawk Greathouse."
It has been conclusively proven by
Roosevelt and others that Cresap was
absent In Maryland at the time of the
murder of Logan's family and had noth
ing whatever to do with It.
Governor Presents Sword.
Creaap received a commission as Cap
tain from the Governor, and aerved
gallantly throughout Lord Duamort'i
war. At the beginning of the Revolu
tionary War he was appointed to the
command of a battalion of frontier
riflemen, with whom he Joined General
Washington at the siege of Boston. Be
coming seriously ill from camp ex
posure, he secured a leave of absence
and etavrted for home, but died 91 the
way In New York City, October It, 1773.
He was burled with military honors In
Trinity churchyard. New York. While
on a visit East last year. Sheriff
Creaap, of Vanoouver, visited the tomb
of hla Revolutionary anoestor in that
ancient churchyard.
Colonel Cresap'a sons and grandsons
were also backwoodsmen and Indian
fighters, as waa his great-grandson,
Robert V. Cresap. In the present gen
eration he is represented by Edward E.
Cresap, a pioneer settler of Clark Coun
ty, and by Ira C Creaap, the present
Sheriff of the county, also a pioneer
and backwoodsman, whose early years
were spent In hunting bears and cou
gars and in clearing the ground on Ills
father's farm. But in 1898 the bugle
r,all of the Spanish-American War
aroused his patriotic blood, and as a
Clark County volunteer he fought un
der the flag of his fathers In the Phil
ippines. It was the writer's fortune to
serve as a comrade by hla side In the
thickets of Luson Island, and it can
truthfully be said that he gallantly up
held the courage and honor of hla war
like ancestry. .
'It Is Interesting to notice how these
pioneer families have handed down
from father to son not only tbelr cus
toms, habits and characteristics, but
their typical traditions, songs and
stories, which have never found their
way Into print. And we will close this
sketch by quoting one of these old
songs, which has been handed down
orally for several generations by these
bold yeomanry of the border:
The Barkwoodamaa's Ballad,
Away in the West we'd ever be.
Where nature Is wild and man is free,
we till oar own soil, we elesr our own
land:
We build our ewa hemes with rifle at hand.

It is pre-eminently the most generous plan of credit service that has ever been offered by any homefurmsh

Rain Halts More Hopplcking.
DALLAS. Or.. Sept IS. (Special.)
Hop picking- in most of the yards in
this vicinity was abandoned yesterday
about noon, owing to the heavy rain.
Growers are becoming alarmed at the
weather conditions, and every available
hophouse is being secured for drying
purposes. As yet no particular damage
has been done to the hope; but grave
feam are entertained that much dam
age will be done unless the weather
clears. Prune picking has been de
layed. The prunes are apt to suffer
more from a continuance of this rain
than the hops. Considerable injury haa
already been done to them.
