George Mansfield has returned from
two months spent In Oklahoma, where
he has been preparing his case for the
Choctaw-Chickasaw Indian Protective
association against the government In
an endeavor to recover valuable oil
lands. , He will return to his head
quarters In Oklahoma City in Septem

Mr. Mansfield says people , here
think It's hot, but It's only warm In
" comparison with Oklahoma where. It
has seldom been below luu at night
tor weeks, and from 105 to 110 during
the days. - Those who can,' ro else
where during the hot weather. - .
"The average working man of mod
erate circumstances in Oregon lives
In a good quarters, has as good
clothes and lives as well, and many
of them better, than the majority of
the well-to-do land owners In Ok la
noma," said Mr. Mansfield. "The
farms are mostly all operated by ten
ants and the woman and children
work along with the men In the fields,
hoeing cotton and doing other drudg
ery work."
Mr. Mansfield says the corn crop is
a failure this year and there will only
be a fair cotton crop In Oklahoma.

freight clerk of the Montlcelll Steam
ship company at Vallejo, Cal., died
suddenly yesterday near Central Point
while enronte with his family by auto
mobile to his home from Washington,
where they had been spending a vaca
tion.

I hemorrhage. It is said that Mr. Rey
inolds hod suffered a severe attack of
Indigestion the night before, but had
apparently recovered from its effects
I the next morning. When first at
tacked by tho hemorrhage, he ex
claimed, "Whup! Something's gone
wrong. A moment later he was dead.
Dr. Heckman of Central Point was
summoned to attend the man, but
when the doctor hud arrived he was
beyond earthly help.:
The body was taken in charge by
the Perl Funeral Home and shipped
to Vallejo for Interment. The remain
ing members of the family. Mrs. Rey
nolds and son and daughter, left by
automobile Inst night for theKnmc
city, where the funeral will be held.
AT GORE RANCH
The wheat crop on fhe 40 'acres-of
the W. If. Core ranch, adjoining -the
Jacksonville highway has been thresh
ed, and ran 70 bushels to the acre, one
of the best yields in the history of the
Rogue- River, valley.. The. previous
high mark was 65 buhels to the acre.
Right In the middle of the rejoicing
over the jjounteousness of nature, and
the productivity of the soil, a pot
monkey, belonging to Jay T..C,ore, su
perintendent of the farm, broke loose
.from hlB moorings, and wont over to
W. E. (BUI) Brayton's place, causing
a ripple of excitement to roll over that
rural section. ,;
Before the Simian waa recaptured,
he created havoc. Among his depre
dations at tho Brayton home were:
; Tearing a furrow of shingles ,
off the roof; - :
i;..; Pruning and uprooting vinos pna?
, the aide of the house;
Thowfng a pnil of cooking np
ples In the kitchen at tho birds;'
Entering the snld kitchen with
out the formality of opening tho
, screen door: t '- '
Mistreating Bill's Sunday
britches; .
Rending asunder a nice looking
hat belonging to Mrs. Brayton:
Chasing the family cat under
the barn, where puss remains in
spite of no milk for two days.
The Simian escaped when his cage
door was opened to give him his lunch,
and ilia master went after biin as soon
as he was apprised of the getaway.
Mr. . Brayton has a record crop of
' pears, but nothing that can do any
thing to the Gore collection of Per
sian rugs. ',...
The .monkey Is believed to be the
only one in the valley and is a mem:
ber of the Reese genus. It was given
Jay Gore by a friend living In Wyom
ing, Is two years old and worth J50
as he stands.
The creature kicked over the traces
once before, but his bump of destruc-
tiveness was not exercised then. After
an absence of three weeks, and all
hope for his return had vanished, he
was sighted one afternoon perched on
the ridge pole of the tool shed at the
Gore place,- making faces at a hired
. man. He was recaptured without the
aid of peanuts. .
As a result of the latest outbreak
an ultimatum has - been Issued that
the next time Mr. Monkey has a tant
rum, back to Wyoming he goes.

WASHINGTON'. D. , Aug. 12.
(A. H.) Renewed indications Uuil
Secretary Wttrks will retire us head
of the War Department were followed
today by preparations in severnl quar
ters to lay-before President Coolidge
the qualifications of various poten
tial candidates Tor the vacancy.
It Is likely that a great number of
names will bo submitted lo the Pres
ident hy senators and party leuderii.
Mr. Coolidge la expected to look into
the qualifications ufiall these avail
ables and others, of his own choice be
fore he makes his decision.
The first question he will have to
decide is whether to go outside his
cabinet In naming his new secretary
of war. Among the cabinet members
ar,e two whose names, have been held
In ,in ind In such tentative considera
tion ns he has given to the matter.
Secretary Work, as head successively
of the post office and inferior depart
ments, has made an administrative
record of which Mr. Coolidge thinks
highly and has some knowledge of
army administration through his serv
ice in the World War. Postmaster
General New, a Spanish War veteran,
and a former member of the Senate
military committee, likewise is re
garded by the chief executive as a
man of demonstrated fitness for the
war portfolio.
It is emphasized, too, that neither
the interior secretary nor tlie post
master general, is seeking a transfer.
Among those outside the present
cabinet, Charles 1). 1 lilies, of New
York, is conceded to rank high among
the uvniluhlcs.-but one influential sec
tion of the .Republican, leadership In
Washington, will advise strongly thai
the President look to the- West to
supply the cabinet appointee. ; s
: Western senators have a number of
names they want to present. ,
The., a p pa re n t co n v Ic 1 1 o n of Mr.
Weeks that he cannot return to his
post is a source of much regret among
many officials in Washington, but of
genuine gratification among many of
his personal friends. Some of his
closest intimates here have strongly
advised him not to undertake agliin
the serious duties which during tho
past four years have overtaxed his
strength and gradually depleted his
health.

9Ae Answer to the Burning Question
j"Gari't Fool
Mother Nature"
says the Doctor. "She's a wise old lady and she knows when
you work too hard over the washing. First she makes you feel
tired, and then if you keep on working after you've begun to get
'that tired feeling' well, you're really just looking for trouble."
Washing isn't woman's work and there's no need for any
woman to do it, with our moderately priced Rough Dry service
ready to wash and dry everything, iron the flat-work, and leave
only tho ironing of the lighter pieces to bo done al home.
