'"J. B. Weaver, Colfax, Iowa.",
This was the signature by Gen. Wea
ver which was made pn the register, at
the Columbia hotel when The Dalles
Portland local pulled into town today.
He was met by ' A. L. Reese and - a
Chronicle reporter, who upon - being
introduced,' headed the reporter off .by
saying be never permitted himself to be
interviewed. : When asked hia reason
he replied that he was frequently mis
quoted, -or else the reporter couldn't
understand what he said. He 'stated,
however, that the etate would be thor
oughly canvassed this year by Populist
speakers-
Gem Weaver," who was the Populist
candidate for president of the United
States four years ago, has a very , vener
ab'e appearance, his hair and mustacb.9
having become silvered during the many
campaigns in which be has variously
figured. He dresses faultlessly in a
well-fitting suit of black, his carriage is
erect and hia walk sprightly." After
speaking tonight on Populist issues at
the Baldwin,' be will proceed to Rufus
on the 10:55 train.

little Banna Knox, who was severely
burnt through her clothes taking fire

the accident,' the child ha had to be
