CRAZV, THREATENS, ARRESTED
On Monday, Jack Stone was ar
rested at Laidlaw by Constable
Lucas, A. E. Forguson nnd S. R.
Dorris by requost of John Wimer,
whom Stone is alleged to have
threatened with a shot gun. Stone
who walked over the mountains re
cently, was employed by the Wim
ers at Tumalo. Apparently he suf
fers from flu of insanity, during
which he is irresponsible. He was
taken to I'rineville.
That the first convention of the
Central Oregon Development Leoguc
at I'rineville thin Friday and Satur
day will be attended by a large dele
gation of Hend people ta assured.
The local interest is due to tho pre
liminary missionary work of J. J.
Sayer, field secretary of the Oregon
Development League, who was here
last week working on behalf of the
get-together meeting; the enthusi
asm nroused by Manager C. C.
Chapman of the Portland Commer
cial Club at his address last night,
and perhaps chiefly because local
people realize that Bend is primarily
responsible for the inauguration of
the Central Oregon League, and are
determined that this place be well
represented.
Friday morning the Bend boosters
who ore scheduled to forget their
location and become Central Oregon
boosters first, last and all the time,
go to the county seat, where ar
rangements for their accommoda
tions have been made.
Delegations from all the towns of
south-central Oregon are expected.
Many Portland business men will
attend. President Gray of tho Hill
lines will be one of the principal
speakers, many other prominent rail
road officials also being on hand.
Bill Hanley of Burns will preside.
There will be five sessions.
Friday morning there will be ad
dresses of welcome, Bill Hanley and
C. C. Chapman being listed among
the speakers. Friday afternoon
"Cooperation" will be the subject
for discussion, and in the evening
President Gray will be the principal
speaker, the subject being "Central
Oregon's Resources." Saturday
morning special commercial club
methods and the use of the local
press in publicity work will be dis
cussed, the afternoon session being
devoted to talks upon good roads,
dry farming, irrigating and experi
ment stations. In the evening
I'rineville will be the host at a ban
quet to the visitors.
