Spokane Fair Has
Large Deficit, Due
To Small Crowds
Spokane, Wash., Sept. 9. The Spo
kane Interstate Fair and Livestock
ehow ahowed a deficit of $20,000 when
the gates closed on the -9th annual
exhibition tonight. This statement
was issued by Thomas S. Griffith, pres
ident of the fair association.
To stage a fair next year it will be
necessary to raise the amount of the
deficit through a financial campaign,"
Griffith said. "Fifty per cent of this
deficit represents the losses on the 1921
fair, the remainder on this year's, fair,
due to lack of attendance. Although
the gate receipts this year considerably
exceed those of last year, the ex
penses have been heavier." .

Trying to Find Trail
Of Unknown Fiend
Olympia, Wash.. Sept. 9. Belief that
the unknown fiend who terrorized and
brutally assaulted Mrs, Kate O'Hare
and her four daughters and beat her
son and another youth Thursday night
in her home, eight miles west of Olym
pia, is still in that vicinity was
strengthened by the report today of
Matt Twohy, a farmer living within a
mile and a half from the O'Hare home.
Twohy, who had been away from
home all day, found upon his return
late Friday night that his cabin had
been entered and food taken. It is
believed by county and police officials
that the fiend was the intruder and
is still in hiding near the scene of his
crime. - Matt Starwich's bloodhounds
were again put on the hunt.
Road Construction
Program Given Up
Dayton. Wash.. Sept. 0 In an ef
fort to curb soaring taxes, the Co
lumbia county commissioners adopted
a program which, it is estimated, will
reduce the total about $75,000. The
road construction program planned
last year will be abandoned and only
enough work will be done on highways
and bridges to make them safe. County
agent work will be dispensed with, no
extra help will be paid for at the audi
tor's office, cars furnished county of
ficials may be used for county business
only, and the assessor will no longer
be allowed an office deputy. " Levies
for road districts will be reduced in
every case from two to four mills, and
the first of October the salaries of all
deputies will be materially reduced.

MISSING VOTES
FOUND; DO NOT
CHANGE RESULTS
Lost Ballots Are Discovered in
Sealed Envelopes in Unlocked
Drawer of County Courthouse
The ' missing bahots of the primary
election in precinct 197, for which dil
igent search was made for several
days. haVe been found. They were
discovered Saturday afternoon by
Deputy County Clerk James Gleason,
in charge of the registration and elec
tion bureau, and immediately thereaf
ter were taken into Judge Knowles'
court and recounted in connection with
the Coffey contest case. They made
no material change in the figures as
given by the election board, some two
or three minor mioiaites being discov
ered. Gleason Saturday afternoon began a
systematic search of all the drawers
in, the registration bureau, and eventu
ally was rewarded by discovering the
missing ballots in a sealed envelop, in
an unlocked drawer at the northerly
end of the long counter. With them
were some ballot stub of precinct 266.
, Gleason says hj recalls the placing
of the stubs within this drawer, but
has no recollection "of the envelop of
ballots having been placed there. He
believes that they ware brought to the
court house in the canvass bag con
taining other election papers, instead
of within the wooden box supplied for
the purpose, and that in the rush of
the work they were tucked into the
drawer where they were discovered by
him.
C. P. Benedict, chairman of the
counting board, had previously tes
tified before Judge Knowles that the
box was not opened after It was taken
to the registration bureau. Mabel
Eastman, a judge of precinct 157, had
testified that all of the ballots were
initfaled as they were counted. When
the ballots were recounted in court
after their discovery it was found that
they were not initialed.
As the count in this precinct makes
no difference in the contest case, it is
probably the incident of their mis
placement will be dropped.

as the center. Plans of
California Barrel company and otlu-r
Industries were detailed, all combining
to throw out a lure of promise which
attracted the Portland people.
The trip over the new rail line would
have been a tedious one for the Port
land people, had It not been for the
inspiration they received from the visit
to the embryo lumber town and indus
trial center.

Salem Prisows
Had Loot Stolen
From Oregon City
Salem, Sept. 9. Jewelry found in
the possession, of Ed Da via, Dick Mor
gan and John Augustine when they
were arrested here Wednesday was
today identified by a member of the
Boland family of - Oregon- City as a
part of the loot taken from the Bo
land home on the night of September
2. The Identification strengthens the
suspicions of Chief of Police Moffitt
that the three men may have been re
sponsible for several burglaries com
mitted in valley towns lecently.
Jewelry valued at $400 wa3 taken
from the Boland home, it is said, but
only a part of it was found. At the
time of their arrest the men were
peddling seemingly valuable jewelry
to Salem residents at suspiciously low
price's.
Chief Moffitt suspects that Morgan
is wanted in either Oklahoma or Kan
sas for breaking jail, and that Davis
is an escape from Leavenworth prison.
Early this morning the men were
detected in an attempt to break' jail
by picking the lock to their cells with
a piece of wirje. In a demonstration
this afternoon Morgan picked every
lock in the "city hall with simple tools
in a kit found on his person when
arrested.

we believe, by constantly using this

stantly, but the work is so glorious
that it is worth it.
"These waters also work wonders in
allaying leprosy and venereal diseases.;
Directly above our leper village there;
is another village inhabited mostly by;
syphiletics and by those suffering'
from rheumatism. Aside from the
bathing in the spring water, leprosy'
is treated by various uses of chamool

to allay the disease. It is so difficult:
to digest that physicians frequently;

"Kusatsu is located 4000 feet above
the level of the sea and is frightfully
cold in winter, everything freezes

one day and after the service told us
that he had felt called to Kusatsuj,

He receives no wages, just his keep

He chose of his own accord to live

and though at first we did not consent
to this, he is now allowed to do so." !
