ALLLGED CHECK
ARTIST IS Alt BESTED.
Constable Randle has gone to Ash
land today where a man Is under ar
rest who is thought to be A. L. Baker,
wanted In this city for passing worth
ier checks upon local merchants.
Mr. Randle is accompanied by Carl
Hull, a clerk at Calhoun's store,
who is to identify Baker, he having
sold blm a bill of goods, and having
taken of the phoney checks.
Baker came here early In the
month and opened up accounts at
both the Josephine County and the
First National banks, making small
deposits at each. These accounts he
checked out, gaining a certain credit
at the business houses, and Saturday
night when he appeared at business
bouses and offered checks in return
for small purchases they were ac
cepted without question. On the last
Instance, however, the checks whic h
he offered were drawn on the First
State Bank of Rogue River, and were
signed "C. Owens." There Is a well
known and reliable farmer of the
Evans creek district by the name of
O. Owens, and as Baker represented
that he had been working for him,
the checks bearing that signature
were readily accepted.
It transpired, however, that Baker
had a side partner who claimed the
name of C. Owen, and under It had I
made a deposit of $25 In the Rogue
River bank. When the checks passed
by Baker appeared at the Rogue
River bank, the fund was too near j
depleted for payment of the paper,
nnd the checks were returned mark-'
ed not. paid for want of funds. Raker
disappeared leaving his suit case at J
the depot, and since then the offl-1
cers have been on his trail. In the J
suit case were other checks filled out !
for $10 and $15 each, drawn on the'
Rogue River bank, and signed by "C. I
Owens." showing that Baker had ex
pected to realize further from the
same source. The check passed at
Calhoun's was for $15, with which
he purchased a small amount of
goods and received the balance In
cash. A check of the same size was
handled in the fame way nt the IVor-
less.

"SERVANTS NOT MASTERS.'
Washington, June .3. Dei -taring
the occasion vital to the country at
large, President Wilson for the sec
ond I line in his administration today
came to the capltol to personally de
liver a message to congress. The
prerfdont demanded Immediate ac
tion on tho currency bill, which is to
be formally placed before congress at
once. The keynote of his speech was
that the currency measure is a twin
with the tariff bill, and that the cur
rency reform is vitally necessary to
enable the business Interests of theja fugitive in the mountains west of
country to adjust themselves to new ihere, following his sensational holu
conditlons arising out of the revision j ing up of the Ulendale State bank, to

' ' The LIFE of a wagon is what counts
that's why I buy a Studebaker"
"Th at's reasonable, isn't it ?"
"A wagon ih.-.t doesn't last is expensive no matter
what price you pay for it."
"Suppose you buy three wagons, one after tne
other, and the three of them don't last as long as one
Studebaker which is the best bargain?"
"I didn't find this out myself. I heard my grandfather lay it
a pood many year aijo. He said he had proved that it paid to buy
a Studebaker. 1 followed his advice to my own satisfaction."
"A wagon can't have life in it unless it has the material and
work and finish in it. The Studebaker people have been making
vehicles for sixty years. They ought to know how to make wagons
right and they do. They hnve the reputation because they've
produced the goods. They don't put the name Studebaker on
until the wagon's right, and when you see the name Studebaker
on a vehicle of any kind it is your insurance of quality.''
"That's why I buy a Studebaker. I trust a Studebaker wagon
bncaese i trust the people that make them. It's good business."
"A Studebaktr promise is always made good."
