SALEM, Ore, Fob. 20. Oovonior
est is Rtill limping from n sprained
kneo received irnibblug Mumps on 'his
Canon bench ranch Saturday.
"How did you do it governor, slid
ing down 'in n hole'f " lie was asked.
"No, I did llmt climbing out of the
hole," bo retorted.
Speaking of tho excitement caused
by bin disappearance tho governor
said:
"This is the firet titnc I ever heard
that tho governor of this pinto mast
get permission from tho legislature
whenever ho wants to go away for a
day or two."
Hiked for SeaMdo
"I wan on tho job hero for forty
days and nights waiting for tho leeis-
laturo to do something, and as my
desk was clear of nil lcgislnUvo work
last Friday I decided I needed n rvt
end to ro down to my ranch near
Canon jtench and cut somo brush
and perform other clearing up work.
"Tho time I spent on tho ranch wn
such a lovely one. The roar of the
ocuntTj was delightful much more
pleasing that tho roar of tho legisla
ture ono hears about here. All day
Saturday I spent about the ranch. In
bo doing I sprained my knee. In the
utcning I sat and watched the firc
plnco listening to the yarns, stories
related by some friends and neigh
bors. "On Sunday I sat and watched the
fireplace some more, and also listened
to canned sacred music. Of conrso
in view of my moral and vice cru
sade on,' no one would expect mo to
travel on Sunday.
Horso Threw a Shoe
"On Monday I started on my return
trip to Salem, departing from the
ranch on horseback for Seaside where
I could catch a train. But that
horso threw a shoe en route. It was
then up to mo to cither disappoint the
legislature or hurt the horse, so I de
cided on tho former course, and
turned back.
"I walked as far ns I could, then I
met a farmer from whom I got a
horse Tho horso wasn't shod and
tho road was rocky. It was n ques
tion of speeding tho horse and hurt
ing its feelings or letting him tnko his
time and hurting the filings of the
legislature. I decided in favor of the
horse.
"Wliilo I was riding along I over
took a man on a loaded wagon. He
was going to let mo pass when bo rec
ognized me.
"No I won't do it,' ho yelled at
roe. 'I've got you just where I want
you. Tho longer I keep you hero the
longer I keep tho legislature from
raising our taxes.'
"And you can believe me, I
didn't rnn across any taxpayers down
there who cared whether I got back
to Salem or not. They weren't wor
rying about tbo appropriation bill)
not being bigned."
Ad Wolgast, cx-llnhtwclKhl cham
pion ot tho world, ts due In Medtord
In tho next day or two for the pur
pone ot concluding tlo purchase ot a
1500 aero stock (arm near this city.
It was orlRlnally announced that ho
would reach Medtord Wednesday
evening but his arrival may bo de
layed a few days.
Accordlug to Jack King, tho Port
land tralucr who has Just returned
from San Francisco, wolgast was
better pleased with what he saw ot
Medtord and tho Hoguo river valley
than any other section of Oregon.
King states that Wolgast Intended
to return to Medtord to close tho
deal.
A return match betwoen WoIruhI
and Murphy Is now unlikely owing to
tho demands ot tho two boys for bis
money.

LOCAL SOCIALISTS TO
GRANTS PASS, Feb. 20. Upon
the application of lien claimants,
Judge Calkins has appointed Dr. J.
t Itcddy ns receiver for tho Old
Channel Mining company, a corpora
tion holding one of the most noted of
the placer mines of the a.-ilice dis
trict. Numerous labor and material
claims had been filed against the
company during the part winter.
The court hns also recently ap
proved tho claim of J R. Harvey of
this city to a lO-Soth interest in the
Old Channel Mining company, he hav
ing brought action against Tlios. W.
Browning, Geo. Sanders, ct al, to es
tablish his right in tho matter, and
the affirmation of his contention fol
lowed. Mr. Harvey was already own
er of one-sixth of the stock in tha
company.
Theso orders of thp rircuit court
put tho affairs of tho Old Channel in
a fair way to settlement and the ad
judication of the claims against the
company should follow with the least
possible delay. Dr. Reddy is well
known ns a thorough-going business
man, and under his direction the Old
Channel will undoubtedly seo the end
of its difficulties.

"We find that the people demand
un hourly service," states Mr. Bar
num. "and mi we have put one on

timo by the forelock by providing u
