BACK ON BAY
Returns Again to San f rancisco
For Trial Astro Wants to
Settle.
Capt. J. A. O'Kelly, whom Astro
and a fair partner attempted to
"fleece"' on the "lost daughter" stunt
in San Francisco, spent Sunday Iiere
looking after" business. He arrived
on the M. P. Plant yesterday and re
turned to San Francisco today, being
under bond to appear at the arraign
ment of Astro and his pal in San
3?ranclsco, December 20.
Capt. O'Kelly took the joshing to
which he was subjected here good na
turedly, merely telling the "joshers"
-to wait a while and seo the finish
"before talking too much.
Capt. O'Kelly confirmed the stories
in the San Francisco papers of the
affair and is inclined to bo easy on
-the "woman In the case" but "he is de
termined to make Astro sweat blood
lor the game he tried to work on
him.
"While Capt. O'Kelly eould not be
seen personally, friends who convers
ed with him stated that a brother of
JVstro's had come to San Francisco
and is endeavoring to do everything
Jn his power to settle the case. It is
intimated that the brother has offered
to recompense Capt. O'Kelly very
liberally for his time, trouble and in
jured feelings If he will drop the pro
secution. Astro has been making "bis money
in San Francisco and the Nevada
brother Is reputed to be wealthy and
it now appears that instead of C3p't.
O'Kelly being "fleeced," he maj1 be
liberally repaid for his ""sight sbe'fhg
tour." '

campaign methods which have been
employed. Thp alignment may be
said to bo L. J. Simpson and his
friends on one side and the others
including Djin Shannon on the other
side. A few months ago, Mr. Simp
son resigned tho office of mayor, giv
ing as his reason that ho expected to
be awayfrom North Bond too much to
longer serve In that capacity. Be
fore the date of tho nominating con
vention, his business matters so
shaped themselves that he found It
unnecessary for him to go away as
ho had expected to do so, he yielded
to the request of his friends and be
came a candidate for re-election.
This has been mentioned in argu
ment against him but without effect.
Some of the opposition to Mr. Simp
son finds expression in the phrase,
"A one-man town." Mr. Simpson's
friends point out the fact that Mr.
Simpson has made North Bend what
It Is and his business position is such
that he can ln great' measure dictate
its future whether he is elected
mayor or not, and that he will be
mo're likely to use his influence for
tho building up and betterment of
North Bend If tho people copperate
with him and show a spirit of ap
preciation than he will If they vll
II fy him and turn him down.
The heat manifested in this cam
paign seems to be generated in the
tabernacle where tho revival meet
ings havo been devoted largely to
politics on the destructive side. The
attacks which have been persistent
ly made in those meetings on Mr.
Simpson have been carried on re
cently by means of dodgers distribut
ed every afternoon about town.
These have bore no signatures and
are said on good authority to be in
violation of the statutes, and the au
thor or authors subject to criminal
prosecutlop. These extravagant at
tacks and questionable methods have
caused Mr. vSlmpson's friends to ral
ly to his support and have alsb been
the means of deciding many votes in
his favor which otherwise would
have gone to the other side. ,
The basis for the personal attack
which has been made on Mr. Simp-j
son, seems to be that under his
earlier administration the town was

that was not the cusp, dnrlnc his m- I
cent administration. The town
seems to have outgrown the wide
open sentiment and is not likely to
ever roturn to It as all the candidates
now stand pledged to enforce exist
ing laws regulating saloons.
