charged by the officers. Ieputy Sher
iffs Colin McKenxle and A. V. Elmer,
were engaged In hunting brra when
they met death.
No one Is now on Tornow'a trail.
Since the bodlee of the two murdered
offlcera were found by the aearchlng
pr.ssea and taken from the graves
where their slayer had burled them
and brought here, no effort haa been
made to run down the wild man of the
woods. "The Ievll of the Wynooche." as
he has come to be called. But that diea

dropped. Instead It ta a time of plan

will co out with the intention of slay
Inn until they get their man. whether
It be one week or six months.
Pe e Saw Betas; Farmed.
Sheriff Payette la now engaged In or
ganlxing such a posse. His plan la to
send half a doien woodsmen on the
trail of the madman. Tornow. who. of
ficers say they are positive murdered
Ms l-ycar-old twin nephews. John and
Will Bauer. In the woods near their
home north of Satsop. September 3. last,
and also the two Deputy Sherlffa.
Who the members of the possa will
be. the Sheriff has not announced, mora
than to say they will be friends of Mc
Kenxle and Ktmer. He has picked out
Ms men already, but they will not un
dertake their task for soii-.e time. When
they do go Into the wood. It will be
quietly, with no announcement of their
purpose, and with the Intention of re
maining until something haa been ac
complished. The members of the posse
will be thoroughly experienced woods
men, familiar with the country which
Tornow has been Inhabiting, the head
waters of the Wlnooche Klver. and
men who have pawed a great deal of
time In hunting and trapping In the
woods In that vicinity.
In the meantime Sheriff Payette la
advising all persons ta remain out of
the district unless they be deputies
with authority to hunt th fugitive.
The reason for this la the fact that the
man Is considered dangerous In the ex
treme, and the officers believe he would
kill anyone now with whom he came
In contact. There are a few neces
sities whlrh even such a man aa Tor

way In which he can get them la by
preying on other people, even to the
extent of murder If need be, and tha
officers declare they believe the man
would now not hesitate to slay. In fact
would be more apt to do so than not.
expecting thus to leave no trace of
himself.
Iegglsg empeey Active.
A new feature which has been
brought Into the Tornow case Is the
fact that the Simpson Logging Com
pany Is preparing; to extend Its logging
railroad almost Into the very territory
where Tornow had his Winter camp,
the spot where his latest victims met
desth and where their bodies were
found, the vicinity of Oxbow on the
Wynooohee.
Reports have reached Grays Harbor
that the company already haa sent a
cruiser Into tha territory to locate a
route for the road.
The officers engaged In the running
to earth of the bloodthirsty flend will
be watched with Interest, for many
are the obstacles which confront them.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Can't you see what a subtle little ar

The mills at Fall River proper are

In arms at last. There are strong

These labor troubles are not causing
any great disturbance In the placid
auburb of Tiverton, where the Bourne
mills are located. Thla Is explained
by the fact that the master of the
mills always has dlscoursged the
union Idea. According to union offi
cials who at this time are In closest
touch with the every source from which
they may expect aid In tha Imminent
conflict, only a handful of operatives
In the Bourne mills have been aDle to
preserve the vestige oT a union. And
it Is doubtful, they say. that even tha
organised handful will have the cour
age to walk out In obedience to a posi
tive atrtke order.
For 20 odd years the Bourne mills
have been the life and the death of
Tiverton. The elder Bourne, a man
whose wealth aeemed unboundod In the
eyea of the simple New Englander. In
the ranks from which the mills then
drafted the great majority of their
bands, waa the founder. He had a
home In New Bedford. Mass.. and his
son, the present wearer of the Oregon
toga, apent hla boyhood there. Almost
from the day the younger Bourne as
sumed direction at the mills, conditions
there and In almilar factories have
kept changing. Kail River Is today not
the typical New hnenna city
it waa
then. Of its population of 119.Z93. aa
enumerated In the census oi isiu. oniy
about 15.000 persona are of American
parentage.
Mills Bleak-Looklag.
The Bourne mills hardly could be
nearer Fall River without being part
and parcel of the city and consequent
ly taxable. They are housed In a long,
bleak structure of stone, five stories In
height. The mill building is In a
swampy, unhealthy-looking depression
so close to the state line that a "fees
soned arm could toss a basebsll from
the mill gates Into Massachusetts.
Visitors are not welcome at the mills.
In fact. It Is evident to the trained ob
server that precaution has been taken
to keep undesirables of all sorts from
obtaining a peek at the conditions hid
den beneath the forbidding exterior.
Two fences exclude Intruders. One
stands 100 feet or more from the front
of the building and marks the begin
ning of the mill yard proper. The In
ner fence guards the factory entrance.
Barbed wire la strung across the top
of this fence and on the gates. Against
the fence standa a small office build
ing. It has so many windows that
front, rear and sides are almost a sin
gle sheet of glass.
Watchman Sees All
One Inside the office shack, without
moving from a fixed position, may ob
serve anything that transpires outside.
The approach of a stranger may ba
noted Immediately. Or. If one not Iden
tified with the mill should chance to
pass the Inner gate without discovery,
the occupant of the office, by a turn of
head, could glimpse him aa he made to
enter the mill door.
That there really Is avery efficient
guardian of the gate on constant watch
In the office cannot be doubted In tha
light of my experience tody. Ten min
utes' ride from the business center of
Fall River to the state line. I walked
a few hundred feet down a soggy road,
ankle deep In mud, and came upon tha
first gate.
Thla Children Attoaad.
The gate stood open, for It was the
noon hour, and a few of the operatives
habitually trudge home to their meals.
Some of these were returning. Small
children, thinly clad and shivering In
the raw wind that whistled around tha
corner of the mill were coming away ,
with tin dinner buckets. Other chll-

against the wind and also carrying din
ner pails, were scurrying toward the
mill, evidently belated.
Two boys, coatless. stoop-shouldered
and wan. came along.
"Io you work In the mill?" I asked
them.
The larger boy did not reply. The oth
er, who looked to be H, vouchsafed:
-Lh-huh; yep.-
"How old are you?"
What slight affability there had been
In the youngster's manner vanished. He
eyed me appralslngly and I repeated the
question.
"Sixteen." he replied at length.
"I'm not f n Inspector and I'm not try
rtr tn ret vour lob." I assured him.
fVConie. now: tell me the truth."

' 1 allpped a dime Into his hand and he
ongnienea.
"For for me?" he stammered.
"Why that'a about what I get for work
ing all day In the mill."
"How- old?"
Tha boy gulped and scrutinized the
dime. '
"Fifteen." he admitted, adding de
fensively, "goln" on sixteen, though."
"And how long have you worked In
the mllir
."Two years." he said: "don't peach."
The boy said his name was John Sll
Iva. and when I asked him where he
lived he nodded In the direction of a
group of "company houses" on a knoll
overlooking the factory: gaunt, ram
shackle dwellings, even less Inviting In
appearance that tha mills.
The other boy protesting he Indeed
had passed his 18th birthday, admitted
he had been working In the mill for
years.
Lads Sickly Looking.
More boys came along and I ques
tioned them as to their age. Lightly
clad and sickly looking they were, for
the most part, and few of them seemed
more than 14 or IS. Some had the faces
of old men set upon their narrow shoul
ders, belying their puny bodies.
They looked at me with open suspi
cion and each piped the pfrrot-llke IS
almost before the question waa out of
my mouth. The whistle blew a moment
after the supply of small boys had run
out: no more came after that. The mas.
ters of the mills frown on the habit of
tardiness.
At the Inner gate I came upon Its
guardian. I was considering the ad
visability of making an unobtrusive In.
spectlon of the premises when I was
observed. In one of the front office
windows stood the guardian who after
ward designated himself as an "as
sistant superintendent." Hands . In
pockets, he was sizing me up. I stepped
Into the office and announced myself.
Visitor la Barred
"I should like to take a look at the
mllls from the inside."
"Why?"
"I am a writer and might find some
thing Interesting."
"You can't."
"Can't find anything Interesting, you
mean?"
"Can't go through tha mills."
"Perhaps you will tell ma. then, what
the Interior Is like?"
"Can't It's against Instructions."
"But you could tell me something
about the wages."
"That's against orders, too."
"f was told you had a profit-sharing
system. I should like to hear about
that." I thought to ba Interesting.
Pront-Sbarlas; Explained.
"Tske a chair: take a chair. I ll tell
you all about that. Tou see. we have
no secrets." Then he told how. last
year, some of the mill employes had re
ceived a bonus of 5V per cent of their
wages. Next year, he explained. It
might be 10 per cent and It might be
nothing, but on what bases the profits
were shared he could or would not say.
Secretary Whitehead, of tha Weavers'
Union had prepared me for the profit
sharing plan. He had said of It:
"Thev use that gag to trap 'em down
there. "They get help from Fall River
mills If thel rown supply Is ever insuf
ficient. I understand they really do
give them a bonus, but believe me, they
take It out of their hides In more ways
than one. It's a trap, that's all."
At union headquarters It was said
that Rhode Island laws being lax. the
looma In the Bourne mills were stopped
and atarted about as It suited the will
of their master.

WASCO IS FOR TAR
Selling, Too, Will Lead Bourne
in April Primaries.
3-T0-1 VOTE PREDICTED
Senior Senator Will Be Snowed l"n
drr Is Declaration of Those Who
Are Familiar Wilson Is Dem
ocrats' Choice Apparently.
THE DALLES, Or.. March 30. (Spe
cial.) The general sentiment In favor
of the renomination of President Taft
la dally growing stronger In Wasco
County, and every Indication points to
the fact that hc will win by a large
vote In this vicinity on April 1. With
the exception or the Dufur-Boyd vicin
ity, where the Wisconsin Senator Is
strong. La Follette will not cut much
figure in Wasco, and Roosevelt Is los
ing ground every cay.
The slogan of voters throughout the
county is "Beat Bourne." and the senior
Senator will be snowed under in "this
neck of the woods" at the primary elec
tion. Stephen A. Lowell has many
friends In this county, but they realize
that Selling Is the man to beat Bourne
and they have rallied to the support
of Ihe Portland candidate for United
State" Senator, and he will receive an
overwhelming vote In Wasco. The busi
ness and professional men of The
Dalles, almost to a man. are In favor
of Selling. It Is predicted that he will
carry this county by a 3 to 1 vote.
There Is nothing to the Congressional
race In this county but "Nick," Sln
rott. of The Dalles, who represented
the -people of Wasco and Hood River
counties at the last two sessions of
the State Senate, lie will walk away
from his opponents here and In Hood
River County, and reports from other
parts of the Congressional district In
dicate that he will receive the Repub
lican Indorsement.
Wilson Democrats' Choice.
Woodrow WJlson appeara to be the
choice of Wasco Democrats for the
Presidential nomination, with Champ
Clark a close second. Judge Bennett,
of thla city, will fe the choice of the
Democrats In this section of Eastern
Oregon for -delegate to the National
convention.
Wasco County Democrata are taking
little Interest in the political situation
because they have little hope to elect
their candidates, of which there are
few. Wasco being about three to one
Republican.
Judge Butler, formerly of Condon,
where he was the law partner of Jay
Bowerman. but now of The Dalles, and
D. J. Cooper, of this city, are tho Re
publican aspirants for State Senator to
represent Wasco and Hood River Coun
ties. I. D. Driver, of Wamic. is the
only Democrat out for this place.
Dr. J. E. Anderson, of The Dalles:
Attorney George D. Brodle, of Dufur;
T. M. Schmeltzer and C. H. Stranahan,
of Hood River, are the Republicans In
the race for Representative In the State
Legislature, there being two to be
elected at the November election. The
Democratis have no candidate.
Three Out for Attorneyship.
There are three Republicans after the
District Attorneyship. They are W. A.
Bell and Carlton L. Pepper, of The
Dalles, and Ernest C. Smith, of Hood
River. No Democrat entered the field.
The Judicial district, the Seventh, em
braces Crook, Hood River and Wasco
Counties.
The Democrats have no candidates
for County Judge. County Treasurer,
County School Superintendent, Asses
sor, Surveyor and Coroner. F. 8. Gun-,
nlng and M. Remington are Republi
cans who are after the head of the
ticket, the Judgeship. H. V. Wood
cock, of Tygh Valley, haa no opposition
among Democrats for the Indorsement
as Sheriff, for which nomination the
Republicans have a three-cornered
fight between Levi Chrlsman. Incum
bent: Chief of Police R. R. McDonald,
and E. L. Height, a farmer. The Re
publicans will indorse L. B. Fox for
Clerk and the Democrats John H. Fitz

Claud S. Knight and Hallie S. Rice
are two Republicans fighting It out for
County Treasurer. Clyde T. Bonney. of

a candidate In the running for County
Commissioner. W. H. -Williams, of
Boyd. F. C. Clausen, of Boyd, and C
J. Llttlepage. of Mosier. seek the Re
publican nomination. Three candidates,
all Republicans, would, be County Sur

Closed Exits Delay Bescue.
FORT STEVENS, Or., March 30.
(Special.) With the tip of his nose
burned to a crisp, his face and the up
per portion of his chest scorched, the
heroic work In lifesavlng of Private
Thomas In an early morning fire here,
may cost his life. His hands and arms
were so badly burned that the akin
peeled off in folds.
Private Heiidrlx, who with Thomas,
aided In putting out the blaze. Is also
In a precarious condition and will lose
one ear. He may recover.
It was about 1 o'clock this morning
that fire broke out In one of the conical
wall tents of the encamped troops,
which have been In camp as a precau
tionary measure to check the spread
of scarlet fever and to permit the quar
ters to be fumigated.
Fire Mea In Tent.
The burned tent waa occupied by five
men. Before going to sleep they had
lightly closed the entrance to the tent.
Musician Taylor, one of the occupants
of the tent, was awakened by a burst
of flame In his face. He. assisted by
Private Thomas, proceeded to pull the
others out of their cots.
The tent by this time was a mass of
flames with the only means of exit tied.
By this time the alarm was given and
other aoldlers ruBhed to the rescue,
tearing the tent open from outside.
Taylor and Thomas grasped Mechanic
Mayfteld, who waa apparently stupefied
from some cause and hurried him out of
the burning tent. Thomas already was
badly burned and went back Into the
burning tent and rescued another.
Hendrix and Thomas are now In the
hospital.
Lighted C'aadle Canae.
The exact causa of the fire is un
known, but it is generally presumed
that a lighted candle, overturned on a
heap of clothing that was In the cen
ter of the tent, did the work.
The sudden, almost explosive, effect
of the flame is said to have been
caused by gasoline used in a soldering
outfit.

ACTION TO BE DELAYED
Home Rule Bill to Wait Vntil After
Easter.
DCBL.IX, March 16. It is generally
expected that the Introduction of the
home rule bill in the House of Commons
will be' delayed until after the Easter
vacation. There is a story in circula
tion that so convinced are the Irish
Nationalists in the United States that
victory Is at last In sight for Irish
Nationalism that quite a. strong con
tingent of anti-British politicians will
arrive from America in order to be
present in London when the home rule
bill is introduced. The chief personage
among the visitors will be Mr. O'Calla
ghan. the American head of the United
Irish League.
Mr. Sherlock, the new Lord Mayor of
Dublin, on the occasion of his formally
assumed office this week referred to
home rule. He said in a few weeks.they
would be discussing the new home rule
bill. "Falsehoods by the thousand," he
said, "will be circulated in England as
to the incapacity of the Irish people to
govern themselves, every little person
al difference, every word of bitterness
spoken here, every unfounded and un
sustainable allegation against the hon
or, probity or capacity of the members
of this Council will be utilized to arouse
public opinion against the bill. I have,
therefore, endeavored to make our po
sition as regards administration unmis
takably clear, and I do hope that you
will not take amiss my appeal to avoid
personalities, and allow the citizens to
see the genuine work done by the cor
poration. No chance should be given
by us for the 'carrion crows' to carry
on their fell work."
Augustine Blrrell. Chief Secretary for
Ireland, addressing hlB constituents in
North Bristol, the other night, spoke of
home rule. There were, he said, peo
ple who declared, "We don't know what
home rule for Ireland is." Then what
were they so excited about It for? But
they knew quite enough. They knew it
was a bill which would set up on Irish
soli an Irish Parliament, a House of
Commons and a. Senate, although not
composed of hereditary peers. They
knew that this Parliament would be en
trusted with legislative authority over
the whole range of purely Irish domes
tic -affairs. If they agreed that time
had come when the voice of the over
whelming majority of Irish representa
tives In the Imperial Parliament should
be heard, and animated by Irish feel
ing, and conducting Irish affairs under
the supervision and control of an Im
perial Parliament, then he should be
only too glad to consun mem, ana con
sider with them anything of pure detail
afterwards. But they were going, so
they said, to fight this bill as hard as
ever they could. They asked, "What's
going to be in your bill?"

fers to the claim of women to obtain
the Parliamentary suffrage. Hithert",
he said, the question was merely an ac
ademic one. Now it had come within
the range of practical politics, and was
a matter for weighty consideration.
Many Irish women would think it Im
possible that a measure for which they
never aRked, which public opinion in
Ireland had never demanded, should
be imposed on them. Yet it was pos
sible owing to the game of parties in
Parliament, and it was well for them
in Ireland to realise the danger of the
measure becoming law without their
consent.
