So Declares the Outlook In Editorial
Which Is Supposed to Reflect
Views of Roosevelt in Regard to

proceeding In eoiiKre relative to
another third resolution the current
Iiwue of the Outlook significantly
dlBciiwioH Colonwl Theodore Hoose-
volt'H statement!! In 1904 and 1907,
In which tho former president refused
to again become a presidential can
didate. Iiecnuse of Colonel Itooso
velt'n connection with the magazine.
polltlciaiiH here think the editorial
reflects his views. The editorial says
In part:
"Those thinking It unsafe to elect
a president for a third term should
recall the fuct that objections to a
third term were formulated against
a third consecutive term. A man
who leavos the prosldoncy and who
Is re-elected, nfter four or eight
yoars have elapsed and has not a
body of office holders behind him,
does not possess the power of pa
tronage but stands on the same foot
ing as any other private citizen.
"In Colonel Roosevelt's specific
cose It is Hometlines said .that, his
Btatcmonu In 1904 and again In
1907 that he would not accept an
other nomination would make his ac
ceptance of the nomination this year
Inconsistent. Whatever Colonel
Iloosovolt said In 1904 and 1907 re
ferred to a third consecutive term.
"Mr. Roosevelt believes that the
settled policy of the country makes
a third competitive presidential term
Impolitic if not Improper but the
Outlook has u better appreciation of
his intelligence to suppose he hnd In
1904, or has now, the slightest Idea
of defining a third term excepting In
the way It has just beon defined.
"Tlio situation perhaps can be
made clearer by the following home
ly Illustratien:
"When a man says at breakfast,
'No thank you, I won't tnko any inoro
coffee' It does not mean that he
won't take any more coffee tomor
row, next week or next year."

pointing out thnt it va Judge Wol

that the answers of the defendants

LAFEAN MEASURE
IS
AGA!NJNHOUSE
Congressman Sulzer, Pressed hy
South and East, Reintroduces Ob
noxious Apple Box Bill Killed Two
Years Ago.
Western horticulturists must pre
pare to defend themselves from injury
to their tipple industry us a result of
the reiiitroduction of the Lafean ap
ple box bill by Congressman Snlzer
of New York. Until recently it was
believed no attempt would be made
to secure this legislation, but pres
sure from eastern growers was
brought to bear on tlio New York rep-
resenlntive to introduce the bill.
The measure has been referred to
the interstate and foreign commerce
committee this session instead of to
the agricultural committee, in hopes
it will be more favorably received by
the first named body. The agricul
tural committee would again refuse to
report the bill, it is understood, but
the majority of the interstate com
mittee is believed to bo favorable to
the Sulzer measure. Hearing will be
had on the bill early in March, and
unless western apple growers take
concerted action it is believed strong
influence of eastern nml southern
people will be exerted to pass the
measure.

Perry Knotts of Gold Hill Consults
With District Attorney Concerning
Elopement of His Wjfe With Ar
thur J. Smith of Gold Hill.
SAID TO BE SECOND WIFE
SECURED IN THIS WAY
First Mrs. Smith, With Whom He Is
Said to Have Eloped, Died
Some Time Ago.
Perry Knotts, miner, a long time
resident of Gold Hill, is in this city
today consulting H. F. Mulkey, dis
trict attorney, regnrding the issnnnco
of a wnrrant for the nrrest of his
wife, Ida," hnd Arthur J. Smith of
Gold Hill, who are nid to have eloped
on Monday, leaving for California.
Smith is well known in Gold Hill, hav
ing resided there for some time and
being a member of Gold Hill lodge I.
O. O. F. and the Canton nt that place.
Adultery in charged in the complaint
filed by Mr. Knotts.
The couple is said to have eloped
on Monday. On Sunday night Smith
left Gold Hill, presumably for Wash
ington. He is said to have doubled
back from Grants Pass, going through
to Ashland on the Into train. Mrs.
Knott left Gold Hill Monday' morning
for Medford on the motor to do some
shopping. She has not been 8e.m by
her husband since. She is supposed
to have gone direct to Ashland where
she joined Smith" ifriu left with him
on No. 13 for Sacramento.
In Ashland the couple were seen by
a number of peoplo who knew them
and they at once telephoned to Gold
Hill, so that Mr. Knotts lost little
time in getting on the trail of tho
elopers. Today ho asked for a war
rant for their arrest.
Smith is said fo have drawn $'SO0
from a Gold Hill bnnk and $137o from
a bank at Nampn, Idaho. He is sup
posed to have this money with him.
The intimacy of the elopers is sup
posed to have dated from last sum
mer. Eighteen months ago Mrs.
Smith died and Smith took tin hU
residence with the Knotts as a board
er. Knotts' work took him away
from home a great deul, leaving the
children, Mrs. Knotts und Smith alone
in the house. However, Mr. Knotts
evidently did not suspect that any
thing wits wrong.
Smith is said to have secured his
first wife in much tho satne manner,
eloping from Uoise, Idaho, with u Mrs.
Vandewalker. Her husband pursued
them und had Smith arrested for
adultery. He then divorced his wifo
and forced Smith to marry hor. ut
the X)int of a shotgun, nccerdinj: to
people of Gold Hill who clnim to Imvo
knowledge of tho nffuir. Thoy lived
for some time in Gold Hill and were
suid to he apparently contented. Mrs.
Smith died 18 months ago.
Smith is siiid to hnvo first met
Mrs. Knott in a hotel at Uoise, Idaho,
where she was employed at tho tinto
of his nrrest for eloping with Mrs.
Vnndewalker.
It is believed thnt tho couplo aro
now at some point in California.
