They been going from bouse to bouse among the farmers, ami indie ing them to invest in cloth from which to make eight suits of clothing, for which they charge $I.,0. If the farmer has not the ready cash on hand, his note for the $150 is readily taken. "When they came to Powell's Valley they first got some one t. take them around to those farmers who were well situated, so that all the notes are on gfod men. It is stated that no less than $18,000 in notes were obtained in this way, and hv othecatcd for cash at Oregon City. At Pleasant Home settle ment nine made purchases of the ped dlers. Ibit the seiiial of the whole atl'air is that the parties making Jthe purchase for f 150 did not obtain more than 23 worth of goods for the money. At Pleasant Home the following were among those who were victimized; Hoffman, the two Kellys, Lusted, Hub erts, Lake, IJoss, Ilejnobls and Williams. They all deHare they have no idea how they came to buy the good-, as they bad no use for them. One man is reHirted to have bought four packages, which amounted to $G0O. When the peddlers came to Mr. Lusted's place they werejmetic." Thinks text liooks of mental told that none of the goods were want- ed. Nevertheless, they obtained per- mission to show them, and w hen thet peddlers left they hid $130 from Lusted, and he had about $23 worth of goods in return. Our informant says s.ome c.f those who gave their notes w ill certainlv be seriously embarrassed before they are through with it. The peddlers are still at work securing fre-h victims. Ore- gonian.
