The "run" was started by tele phone messages sent out from Grants Pars and tho attempt Is credited to a certuin element among the sal loon men, as a blow a1 Mayor Oilkey, cashier of the bank. The hostility to tho mayor is by no means general among the saloon men, though there is sn element which his firm staud in the enforcement of the city laws has antagonized. Telephone messages were sent cut to all the nearby towns in every direction, stating that the t-aiiK naa lost 1 10,000 and warning depositors to withdraw their money, saying that the financial condition was precarious. Pusinesa men in Grants Pass received similar warnings. Though Iho attempted 'run"caused a little money It lie withdrawn, tho hank's accounts the next day follow ing the attempt showed that the de posits of the same period excelled the withdrawals by ."iOOO.
