Look for WORD EXPENDED LESS MONEY THAN STEVENS Fifty-Five Extra Clerks in Tax Department Add to Ex penses of Sheriffs Office as Conducted by Present Incumbent Word Saved County Money. E-Sheriff Word'" economic! admin istration of business affairs during his term of office by which he saved tax payers of Multnomah county many thou sands of dollars, la on of the strongest and most effective arguments of his present campaign against Sheriff Stev ens. In one item alone, that of collecting taxes. Word's 'conduct of the office for which he is again a candidate, oost dur ing the first four months of 106 near ly 15,000 less than during the corre sponding months this year under Sheriff Stevens. Sheriff Word accomplished during those four months the same amount of work. Taxes were oollected by the reg ular clerks in the sheriff's office with the assistanoe of only a few extra em ployes. The total expense to the tax payers of the county during that time was 15.911. Mur Extra Clerks. In the same period this year. Sheriff Stevens has found It necessary to em ploy BS' extra clerks In the tax depart ment to collect the money due from the POLICE DOGS AT WORK. A Casual Encounter of Dona and Kogl on Duty tn Brooklyn. From the New York Bun. A night worker on his way home tn the Prospect Park section of Brooklyn at an early morning hour recently saw n dog with a Jingling tag fastened to Its neck oome running along the opposite side 'of the street. The dog ran up to the front door of a house, sniffed and was down off the porch and around to tha roar Ilka., a f lanh. Judging from 'the usual conduct of dogs the nrsi tnougnt was mac mis one was either Hearchlog for its home or looking hungrily for a stray bone. At the next bouse the same perfor- ance was repeated wttn equal inorougn ness. A little further down the street o man swung the gate open and entered the yard at about the time the dog ar . rived. The dog followed him up the steps, waited until he took out, his key and let himself in. then, satisfied went on about his business. The man, who had forgotten Just at the moment that the policing of the city Is now being done by improved methods, was at a loss to account for the dog's performance being repeated at every house until -he saw the animal run out Into the middle of the street and sniff at a;' dark object lying there. The dog circled around the object several times and then darted off at top speed. In a short time it returned, followed by another dog. Not far behind the sec ond animal was a policeman who had been trying: to keep pace with the dog. Under the policeman's prodding the ob ject moved and proved to be. a man who ?ot MP and walked off uncertainly down he street' Then the dog that had brought assist ance to the intoxicated man ran on In one direction and the policeman and the -etbe dog went the opposite way. It was Dona' and Nogl, two of the -police dog, doing their duty falthfjilly and withoutoany fuss.' : V . v ' ' the Sign assessment roll. In addition there are TO regular clerks on the pay list. The collection of taxes during these four months has oost Multnomah county 110. 707, as compared to the total of $5,911 under Word s administration two years ago. Sheriff Word at that time had 68 regular clerks to do the work. During the heaviest part of the, tax collecting period he employed, but 18 additional clerks, who put In all or part of their time. Used to Offset Stevens' Claim. The facts an if f Irures relative to the two administrations are being used ef fectively by word s aanerents to onset the argument advanced by Sheriff Stev ens and his supporters that during the past two years the sheriffs office has been conduoted as economically, and on as strict business oasis as it was durinar Word's retrlme. With only four months of the present year gone, and the expenses of the sher iffs office nearly $o,000 in excess of the sum found necessary to expend In the same period of 1908 for the same purpose. Word's argument of more econ omy and better business principles In the sheriff's office has been given a lorcioie impetus. WOMAN IS MARSHAL. She Carries a Gun and Knows How to Use It. From the Kansas City Times. Beulah Reynolds, "deputy United States marshal for the eastern district of Oklahoma. That Is the way It reads on the payroll, and the petite, handsome girl that answers to the hame is a real deputy marshal with authority to carry a she shooter, a privilege which she uses, serving under Grant Victor, nisrsnai or we district. Miss Reynelds was born In Randolph county, Missouri, and educated at Lex ington, Mo. She was born In Oklahoma City at the ODenlnr of Oklahoma. She regards her aDnointment under Victor as a political matter. She was taken on as a stenographer, but when she went In she Insisted, on taklna- tha ume oath that any other deputy marshal takes, and she also Is subject to the same rules and duties. So far as known she Is tha . only woman actually in service as a deputy United States mar shal. She has authority . to make ar rests, raids, serve papers and sven go into the field on special duty. When she took the oath of office Minn Reynolds was asked If she would go out and make an arrest if It were required and If she would take part In a real fight. If It came to a "show down": and it was pointed out to her Just what duties . are sometimes ' required of a deputy marshal in tight places. Her reply was short and to the point: I will take the oath, and I am not a quitter." The next morning when tha marshal came down he found lying on the desk of his new deputy a pearl handled six shooter of excellent make, handsomely engraved and every chamber loaded. He was Informed that it shot pretty well and that it was a better gun -than it looked. So far there are no notches on this gun, hut who knows when there will bet The fact is the young woman has been carrying the gun when she believed she, needed It. and aha knnwi how to use 1U v. .

Mr. Holman says Rawhide is tha ?:reatest mining camp in the world and hat It is booming now as it never has before. Starting barely a year ago witit one tent, the bUBtling young mushroom city has now a population of upward of 13,000, according to Mr. Holman, and he shows pictures of the ramp that go far to bear out this assertion. "You can say for me," said Mr. Hol man to a Journal reporter, "that there is absolutely no foundation to the story that the mines in this section have been salted to create a false boom, Samples Dioked Indiscriminately from my own properties In Rawhide havo assayed fig.uuv to tne ton, ana one sack of ore which I selected of picked samples went as high as $80,000. "The ore must yield $300 to make the mines down there pay, and every one is shipping as fast as the present lim ited faculties win allow, uoes mis look like the mines were salted? "We are building a 40-mile spur road from Schrdz, on the Bullfrog & Tono pah railroad, and when the line is completed I expect the ore shipments will startle the world by their rich ness. "Twenty-five new mines have opened ud in the past few months and hoists and other developing machinery aro being installed as racmiy as it lsvpos stble to bring the machinery in. The difficulty In bringing in machinery Is our main handicap at present, but this will be overcome with tne advent of the railroad.

FROM Look for the will, surely NERY IS GATE BIG ENOUGH FOR TWO FAMILIES JUDGE MUST DECIDE Mr. and Mrs. Joe Verando having de cided that the gate leading to the house occupied by them and Carl Schachtnger and his brother John has become too small for general use. Judge Cameron was called upon this morning to pass his opinion. Evidence brought out that the Verandos didn't want the Schach Ingers to use the gate. Since the latter had a part of the house and didn't want to use the back gate they contended SMOKING HAMS. A Bucolic Art, Memory of Which Sets the Epicure to Talking. From the New Tork Sun. "I read In the newspapers that beech nut fed ham from Virginia Is Quite the "age in London," said the man who mama ne snows good eating, "and I can understand it, for It's about the most tasty thing In the ham line ws get these uaj O. "But I can't help thinking that the ham t..U8ed t0 set In my boyhood had this Vlrgina product beaten. Maybe they have lost the trle.k of curing or smoking ham, or maybe my memory has run away with my imagination. However It is, I'd give a good-deal for one of the hams that used to hang in the low-ceillnged farmhouse kitchen I knew when I was a boy. I took a greirt Interest In those days in watching the pig develop from Its immature state, up through the alng and fattening process, and then, in the final porcine iiioiauioruiioBia. into sparer lbs. and sau sage, and ham and Just plain pork. 'It was a great day for me when they killed the pigs, especially if I was al lowed to" assist. And the next day, whn the pig was divided forcibly Into his component parts, was another great day. "We needn't follow the further dispo sition Of these Darts, eirent the hams. After being trimmed appropriately they were taken to a small outbuilding which contained nothing but a huge brick oven. In this oven they were hung, and in the mouth of it a slow fire was kindled. "Now, maybe it doesn't matter what fuel is used for that slow Are, but the Are that smoked the hams my boyhood knew was fed with corn cobs and noth ing else. The burning cobs gave oft a dense, opungent smoke. The hams were allowed to become saturated in this at mosphere for a day and then they were hung up In the kitchen. "A few months and the ham would be eminently fit to tickle the most partic ular paiate. "Speaking of pigs reminds me of an other delicacy which I have never seen in New York. That Is souse. When you speak of souse In these parts you mean either the state of Demg pickled or drenohed in alcohol or the person so pickled or drenched. The souse I refer to has no connection, real or Implied, with the souse of the barroom. "Souse you eat It, by the way la a flrst cousin to headcheese and a second cousin, to Philadelphia scrapple.

Morris Sheppard of Texas, was so eloquent In telling why "In Ood We Trust" should remain on the coins thst not a member left his seat, and he was frequently ap plauded by the Democrats and occa sionally by the Republicans. Once "Nick" Longworth himself joined In the cheering, and the happiness of the mi nority was complete. While the presi dent's name was not mentioned the en tire speech was directed against an ac tion of his, and there was no more in terested listener than his son-in-law. Sheppard told how the finger of God had shown In every great happening since tne beginning or tne government. and described eloquently the events whloh canned the inscription to be or dered oy congress during tne civil war. He attacked no one, but , hurled faot after fact at the house in what members of both parties declared to be one of the best oratorical efforts of recent years In congress, and when he took his seat . Republicans and Democrats swarmed around to congratulate him The house was In committee of the whole, and the chairman rapped full live minutes Derore oraer was restorea.

Representative Hardwlck of Georgia then proceeded to flay the Republicans. He provoked applause by showing that the united States Steel corporation was shipping rails to Swansea, Wales, and uimrB-mg oniy t21.su ior mem aeiiverea, whereas -the price to American consum ers at Pittsburg, f. o. b., was l!9 per ton. He declared that he would as soon think of asking that a committee of burglars be appointed t revise the laws pertaining to grand larceny as to leave the revision of the tariff to the" Repub licans.
