The flat iron with which Hasye was
killed was without n bundle, nnd bad
been used by prisoners for the pur

wns found in the brush near where he
disappeared.
Hoth Odder and b'agsdate had at
tempted suicide ten days before, the
former by poison and the latter by
cutting bis wrists.
The authorities are of the opinion
that it was J. !. HiiKsdnle's Intention
to break jail, foree IrvinK Oehler to
drive him to bis home in Lnke creek,
nnd there kill tho members of bis
family nnd himself. There Is abun
dant evidence of this intention, Kugs
dnle bad repeatedly threatened to kill
his family and it wuu largely because
of fenr for their lives that led to his
Initial nrrest on an insanity charge.
It is also known that when Hags
dale returned to Jull he told tho Jailor
that there was only one tlitiiK he
wanted befaro being taken to Salem
and that was to see bis family Hs.iln.
lie repeated this request several
times and ft is believed that it was
bis entreaty to be nllowed to speak to
bis family over tho telephone that led
to the traRedy.

10 LIBERTY BONDS!
If the patriotic, and the nenr-pn-triotic
residents of: Jackson eounfv
quickly don't "Watch Their Step,''
they may find nttached to the county
the stigma of fuilure in the lack of j
response to the efforts of the na
tion's government to sell in Jackson
county and Medford their just pro
portion of the Liberty" loan bonds.
Medford's allotment is $1(10.000;
Jackson county's outside of Medford,
is about $140,000. The county and
city' yesterday .were forty percent
"shy"; they arc still about 40 per
cent "shV
The foregoing is the opinion of nt
least four men in this city in position
lo know.
The four banks of Medford bnve
subscribed to nn aggregate of $7f),00l)
in Liberty honds. This amount, how
ever, was figured in yesterday's es
timates in the Mail Tribune.
Poor Are Kos)ondlng.
The "plain people," meaning the
poor man and the wage earner lately
has been responding generously. In
nroof of this, after reading in yes
terday's Mail Tribune of the possi
ble failure of Jackson county to do
its full duty and Friday noon, June
8, is the Inst hour in which it csn be
done the number of subscribers tak
ing ifoO nnd $100 bonds the last
twelve hours has equalled the total
number of all subscribers, big anil
little, since the bonds were put on
sale.
What is our nilment? The state of
Oregon, outside of Jackson county,
and the city of Portland, are report
ed oversubscribed.
The belligerent bird, bis mouth
twitching and swaying with anger,
nnd his incarnadined jowls bellowing
for revenge, nnd chiding the president
of the I'nited States for his efforts
to keep this country out of war, has
been a familiar ty here for two
years nnd his numbers were ninny.
Where is this war-lusty eaglet nowf
Probably to old lo meet the draft
requirements, he, at least, should do
the next best thing, namely purchase
powder nnd balls and shells, socks
anil food for those who are willing
to fight.
Another Boy Subscribes,
But there are pleasant angles here
and there. Robert Lee Rollins cele
brated his fourteenth birthday by the
purchase of a bond. The lad is the
son of Rev. and Mrs. J. C. Rollins, the
third youth to buy a bond.
The iledford Typographical union,
at a meet Tuesday night, voted unani
mously to Invest Its surplus in the
purchase of liberty bonds.
