He served warning on the publio to this effect thru the Mail Tribune. If McDonald as a deputy sheriff of Jackson county persists in his an- nounced course he will invite much trouble tor himself, as the conductors and trainmen have received orders to eject him from any train on which he attempts to examine any baggage of any passenger, or interfere with the , passengers' liberty, without a war rant ; ' . This news was announced today by . -M. Coturri, chief detective for , this division of the Southern Pacific, Who came to Medford today to per sonally convey the news to McDonald. .' The latter explains his inactivities here for a week past thru his absence at Portland looking after the. prose cution of a man there on the charge of smuggling liquor into the state, and whom he followed from Monta gue, Calif., to Portland.
