Other Investments Bad Too.
'Dld the concerns turn out suc
cessfully?" he was asked.
"Not the onea I Invested In." was
the reply.
Elliott said that Keller bad been
told by O. P. Coshow. then president,
that etock could not be exchanged as
had been proposed to him by Keller,
and that Coshow "did not see why he
(Keller) hsd made such representa
tion." Elliott said he had first purchased
two ahares, paying cash. Ten days
later he subscribed for 60 more, pay
ing (1250 and giving a note for the
balance. He waa told by Ralph Wat
son, salesman, that Westerner stock
hsd been sold for W3 or 32.50 a
share, but that some could be "pick
ed up" In Salt Lake City not to ex
ceed 125 a share.
Elliott said he believed Hagerty of
Newberg to be president of the cas
ualty company, a subsidiary of the
Empire concern, and when shown a
letter In the prospectus signed by
Hagerty to the effect that Hagerty
had decided to accept the position,
the statement meant the same thing
to htm.
Hagerty Paid Nothing.
He satd he .thought Hagerty had
put In $30,000. but later found out
he had "not put in a nlckle," he
testified under cross-examination.
Other wltneses calleU during the
morning were M. J. Newland of Rose
burg, who paid down 1350 for 10
shares of Empire stock and who later
subscribed for 30 shares to West

Can a "cave-man" type, who has
spent many of his years on the
fringes of civilization, be expected to
know the polished manners of the
modern drawing-room Its many con
ventions, likes and dislikes?
If you really desire that question
be adequately answered and coupled
with a roaring laugh visit the Fox
Cratertan theater tomorrow or Thurs
day and see that riotous laugh-hit.

Claudette Colbert, Edmund Lowe and
funny Stuart Erwln.

the things they wanted, and asked
no questions. Miss Colbert Is the
social butterfly, who manages to get

CAUSE OF UPROAR
IN LOCAL CIRCLES
The hands, which have guided the
steps of Medford's working population
to and from work; urged wayward
children on to school, and told Gus
Newbury, Tom Fuson. Harry Hansen,
Dr. R. C. Mulholland, Heine Schwar
aenhola and hosta of otbers. when to
go for a coke for more thsn half the
past decade, are still today and the
populace la crying. "Somebody wind
the Jackson County Bank clock."
The cry of dissatisfaction, which
started last week end, when the
clock's hands failed to pass the 6:30
mark, assumed greater proportions
this morning and the futile craning
of necks was supplanted by a general
uproar, which far excels the murmur.
Ing which marked closing of the
bank.
Several auggestlons and recommen
dations have been made, all demand
ing operation of the faithful time
piece. Some ask that the city rinrnea
operation of the electric clock, others
that It be moved to a new location.
The latest solution advanced to re
porters, asks that the power company
furnish the electricity required to
keep the clock ticking.
No answers have been voiced try the
proposed donors of time, and the pre
diction la that many people will be
late to work again tomorrow.
