Thos. M. McTaugtte arrived here lost
night from Deer l.oilge, .Montana,
He is of the firm of Connelly it Mo
Taiiicue, prison contractors of that

escaH'd convict und lontrucer. He
stii.ed oil' a' Sale in and procured a
stute warrant, with the help nl I'ou
stable Linton, for the man. The gen
tleman says Phllpot, alias Whiluev.
eseitied as follows: He was a trusty,
and Willi mo two oilier men, who es
caped at the same tune, was sitting at
Itie mess house lust tiefore supiier. At
supcr they were missed, and a guard
was sent lo looK tliem up when they
wtie seen running over a hill. A
guard was mounted on a horse aud the
blood hounds put on their trail. The
men killed one of the hounds with a
club, while the horse fell with the
guard disabling him, which allowed
all three men toescaia. Since that
time the 111 in has spent (1S00 In trying

A Qukkh Cake. Albany Democrat:
It bus always been supiiosed that
city warrants drew Interest from the
time when stamped by the treasurer,
und as a matter of fact interest bus
been paid ou them, hence the action
of the city council In repudiating In
terest previous lo Jan. :v, ibv-t, ami al
lowing it since sort of as a matter of
courtesy, Is hardly appreciated. While
our citizens may have no feelings In
the matter of brldire warrants, so fur
as Albany men are oonoerned they do
not like to see them lose the interest
always expected to receive. Any debt
ought lo draw Interest if not paid when
due. It would only seem right, if
there Is not money to nay the old In
terest that tome provision be tnude for
it, though as a mailer of fact it Is very
doubtful If It can ever be collected by
law suit and whenever one is bronght
the while warrant will be brought in
to uuestion on account of Its oelng Is
sued in excess of the charter limit."

Telegram: For the the past two years
the office of the Oregou slate board of

Chamber of Commerce building, but
by order of the iiiciiiIhts of tho board
the heailiitiarters will be removed to

The change wus determined upon in
the Interests of economy, as l rent
will have to tat paid for rooms in tne
stale building. In many resjHcts the
change will not lie satisfactory, es
pecially to those living east of the las-
cades, ami also to a great many up the
Willamette valley, who generally
come to Portland to t run sac t business.

Letter From t'.u Doiikih. A let
ter from K 1' Dorris gives the Informa
tion that he has moved from Farmlng

writes that prosects for full trade are
good in that section, uratu has icen
damaged to tome extent, but the main
dependence Is on stock raising and
rruit, or which ine latter mere is a
heavy crop along the Snake and Clear
w a' er rivers. "That Indian money,"
from sule of reservation lands, so long
looked for Is still with Uncle Sum, but
is now expected to be paid by Aug. 15.

A Good Point. The following from
the Corvallls Times contains a point
worth considering In balancing ac
counts: "If wheat Is fifty cents a
bushel this fall there will be more
clear money in It for farmers than
there was three years ago al wt cents a
bushel." That Is what a clear headed
farmer said yesterday, after saying
that lie had Just finished cutting his
irrain and that his crop was the best In
many years, lie has five Hundred
