dlspose of it to other campers and for
that purpose went over to Perrlne's
camp. The J'crrlivca had gone to tho
beach and left tha lad, I.yle. to guard
tho camp. It Is presumed young Per
rlne saw Mr. Quick approaching and
mistook lilm for a burglar. .The shoot
ing was done with a SO-SO rifle, the
bullet striking the loft side and enter
ing the heart, death being almost In
stantaneous. The boy rushed out, and
meeting Thomas Anderson, told him
what he had done. Quick had expired
hen Anderson arrived on the scene.
Mr. Quick was 7G -years old and was
one of Crms .county's most well known
pioneers, coming here in 174. He first
cttled on Lampa creek, but moved to
this city. H was a member of the

for the extradition of the prisoners.
McQpwan was accompanied by Miss

When MeNamara and his daughtor
reached the Hotel Knickerbocker, they
learned for the first time that Mrs. Me

accompanied by Patrick Walsh, her,

for San Francisco this afternoon.
"They have become the tools of cor

"In particular," reads the. platform,
"the party decrees for direct primaries

ballot Is urged, "with responsibility to
the people secured by the Initiative, ref

On labor, the platform says;
"We believe that the issuance of in
junctions in caseaf arising out of labor
disputes sHould be prohibited when such
injunctions would not apply when no
labor disputes existed.
"We also believe that a person cited
for contempt In labor disputes; except
when such contempt, was committed In

near there as to Interfere with the
proper administration of justice should
have a right to trial by Jary."

oicott, custodian of the state canitol.
is scrimping and scraping In an effort
to keep up the state house and avoid
an unpleasant doficlency of the con
tingrnt fund. . He It known that the
last legislature deemed It advisable to
make no apeclal appropriation for tho
maintenance and upkeep of the capltol
otm.nntf.
IMwovery was made that a leakne-n
from a steum pipe had trickled down one
or the four eteel supports of the oapltol
dome and no loosened the clay soil that
It would be but a mutter of time until
the support would sua. Secretary ON
cott instructed the Janitor to have the
pipe replaced, even though there le no
money In sight' with which to pay the
bill.
Without an appropriation for the uo-
kecp of the capltol, the secretary of
state has been drawing for necessary
expenditures upon the contingent fund,
nn appropriation of $28,)00 made for
the purpoMi) of buying office reqtflsltes,
such as stamps, stationery, etc. And
there are bright prospects now that the
fund will how a deficit of about 15)00.
The last legislature approved the in
stallation df a new elevator In the capl-
loi, uui iaiiea to provide for the ex
pense. After the legislature adjourned
the old elevator fell down4he shafting
and a new one was Installed. The
elevator was' Installed and 14100 ws
drawn out of the contingent fund In pay
ment therefor.
The approaches at both main en-
trances to the building became so dllap-'
idiUed in appearance that Secretary 01
cott had tham painted. And there have
been numerous other small expenditures
which Olcott felt he could not well
avoid, although loosening up on that
contingent fund was like visiting the
dentist. -
Junltor Pninsford recently called the
secretary of Hate's attention to the
maty xunJiUoii-of Jthe fire escapes and
to their need of a new coat of palnCT
but there will be nothing more 'detng
in the painting line until the legislature
provides far It. (Secretary Olcott says
be intends to recommend that an ap
propriation be made for painting the en
tire building. He Is also going to rec
ommend that the law he amended so
each state department will purchase its
own office supplies.
When Olcott saw that a deflcljncy
of the contingent fund was unavoidable
he bought I r 0 0 0 worth of stamps, enough
to latst for the year.-;

Albany, Or., Aug. 8.-A4 alrfcf ex

tlie territory commonly known -as the
"blind pig" district, and three of the

the "blind pig trust" In Albany were
closed all day. Anonymous lettershay.fi L
been received by the proprietors and
by other citliens during tho last few
days, threatening to da bodily harm to
them and burn thftlr-places of business
If they do not desist In the Illicit sale
of liquor. The chief of police received
the first letter, the tenor of which was
that his duty wns as n day officer and
for him to stay In nights or he would
be filled with lead, and that If he
thought anything of his night men to
tell them to go slow. All the letters ap
pear to be written by .the same harfd

Speculation as to the origin of the
letters and the Incentive for the burn

followed the next dny by the burning of
another house that had borne th repu

Many are inclined to believe that tho

by the "blind piffms" themselves for

WHAT
STATES
A! RULED AGAINST
DUPLICATE FRANCHISES?
The states that have recently passed upon and decided against
competition between public utilities rendering the same character of
service in the same community areT
NEW YORK
MASSACHUSETTS
NEW JERSEY
CALIFORNIA
WISCONSIN
KANSAS
OHIO
Those holding to the contrary, none (so far as known).
What does the ruling mean? That Portland would make a hub
take if it legally authorized the duplication of all the poles, all the
wire, all the conduits, all the sub-stations and all waterpower plants
of the existing company, by granting a franchise to anqther light and
power concern.
In other words, it is not sound economic doctrine to fasten upon
the consuming public a yearly interest charge of several hundred
thousand dollars, when a regulative act, controlling rates, service and
tion is-within the reach of the community.
