LIEl'T. HOLLY'S RECRUIT.
Eugene, Or., Contributes an Alleged
rireuug to tne Army.
San Francisco Examiner.
Tb idea has for soma tin. been preva
lent in army circle that tb cIass of men
recruited from the' oountry districts are
much mors desirable for army purposes
then those generally obtained in the large
cities
lo pursuanc with this idea it ba been
recently tb custom of tb army authorities
her to send out to vsriou pails of the
Coast what are known as "local recruiting
parties."
Some time ago Lieutenant Holly of the
rirsl Regiment Infantry, while in com
mand of on ol these parties, enlisted at Eu
gene. Oregon, a certain W. C. Drug,.
However, Drugg, the supposed innocent
rustle, entloed by the gleam of brnss but
ton and tb neat nt ol tba trim blouses,
wa not so guileless a was th recruiting
offioer. In lb strong light of later devel
opment Drogg stands out a a scheming
camp of no small caliber.
LOXINO FOR A WAT OUT.
It seems that at th time of hi enlist
ment he waa soeking a mean ol quietly get
ting out of th stst. It i claimed that
Dragg wa instrumental In tb burning of
some property belonging to bis brotber-in-law
in Laos county, Or., which property
wa somewhat overinsured.
Drngg was assigned lo Company D, First
Infantry, stationed at Benicia, and for a
time all went well. He soon suspected that
he wa not safe at Benicia aud desired to get
away. He did not oar to take the obanoes
involved in a desertion, and so fixed np a
scheme to be discharged from the army. He
entered into an arrangement with a consta
ble st Benicia aud soon after stole a shirt.
Tb constable at once arrested him and be
was sentenoed to three months in Fsirfleld
jail. Tb army regulations provide that a
a soldier so offending shall be dishonorably
discharged. The otlloers of bis company
bad become suspicious and so did not dis
charge bim; but npon tb release from Full
field promptly uiurt-martialed him for con
dnot unbecoming a soldier and sentenced
bim to three mouths' fnrthor imprisonment
and to be then discharged.
ONI DAT TOO LATK
When he had served about two of bit
three months an aiient of the insurance
company concerned visited Angel Island
and made Inquiries concerning ilrugg ami
Colonel Bbaftur soon aftor received a let
ter from lb district attorney of Lan coun
ty, askini: him to bold him until an ofllcer
could come for bim. Instead of ooming for
Drugg at once and arresting him, extradi
tion papers were obtained from Sacramento.
During the interval Drugg' time expired,
snd having no authority to hold bim longer
b was released, aud the Oregon official ar
rived a day too late.
Tb lervioe of Detective Anthony wer
secured lo find Drugg, but in tbe mean lime
be bad taken passage to Honolulu. Tbe
guileless bsd proved too sharp for tb com
bined forces of tb army and lb civil au
thorities of California and Oregon.
Tb item quoted from the Examiner is
correct in moat particulars. However, tbe
building burned was looated in Benton
county, and tb Sheriff at Corvallis waa the
offloer that wanted tba firebug. Sheriff
Noland always get hit man.

The Junction City Times Gives the
Register a Dressing- Down.
Juuotlon City Times, May 28.
The GcAiin lakes a delight in copyiog ar
ticles from the Junction City Times refer-
lag lo the democratic sheriff, and tbey ar
always calling tb ) paper independent repub
lican. That gentleman' position is well
understood when it is known that he tried
to rrange to be paid to support tbe repub
licau nominee, but when he wa not taken
np went over to tb other side.
Tho RegUtor is unique in journalism; in
no other newspaper in the west or in th
east is tbe cheek of a mule so beautifully
grafted on the stupidity of a Jackass. Be
cause the Times bad headed off tbe bandy
legged editor of the Registor in every argu
ment, It resorts to wilful lie to stiffen it
argnmc t.
Wheu the editor of tbe Register state
that we made any overture or insinnation
to support lb republican nominee or any
other nominee, bit lie wilfully and mali
ciously, and we challenge bim to meet it.
Tb editor ui this paper ba no disposition
to engage ii. a mod-throwing contest with
tbe lly-up-tlie-creek editor of tb Register.
It is eiisy In impute dishonorable motives,
but this kind ol cheap journalism his bail
its day and ft practiced only by edi
tors wbo have no respeot for themselves or
their profession. However, if nothing else
will do lb Register man, be can be accom
modated. Com ahead and we will pluck
your lopping ears at tb first round.
Tb disgruutled Register calls lb Time
Sheriff Noland 's organ. Tbe Register is
owned soul and body by a spoils ring and
doosn't dare spesk it sentiments. It is of
In yellow dog older aud would sni.iort
Dr. Mary Walker or tbe devil if placed on
tb republican ticket. Th Time is
a bully paper in tb Register' eye when it
compliments republican candidates, but
whoa it defends th humane act of a demo
cratic official, it mars np on its bind leg
ud bowls. Take a baudlull of bile beans,
neighbor. Your -Ivor is out of order.
