The 127 pound cougar meas ured exactly 7 feet from the tip of its tail to its nose and, according lo officers of Bly, has been the object of several recent search parties. A party of searchers had been out the previous day in hopes of ridding the area of the large cat that had been killing their sheep. Mr. and Mrs. Josephson ar rived in the Doming creek area early Sunday morning and set up their camp for a week's vacation and hunting. According to Mrs. Josephson, they spent the first day sight seeing and scouting deer in the area. Upon returning lo camp she spotted the cougar down hy the river before they reached camp.

NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent Grant Matternick was a caller here Monday. He said his brother-in-law, who was operating a large dairy in the Coos Bay area, lost the big dairy barn, flattening some 70 dairy cows inside, during the recent big wind storm. Several local people attended the funeral of Vern Pendleton in Medlord recently. Vern Pendleton came lo this district with his parents when a small boy in 1892, and spent most of his life here, attending the local school and taking an active part In community affairs and social life. The Pendlctons were good neighbors, always ready to lend a helping hand and sympathy to those in distress or need. Mrs. J. C. Pendleton, Vern's mother, was a helper and teacher in the local Sunday school for many years, and was the Table Rock corres pondent for the Mail Tribune back in the nineties. Pear Picking Completed The picking of pears at Modoc and Klamath orchards has been completed, and the packing of pears was fin ished Tuesday at the packing house, according to Ernest Hamilton, manager. The digging and storing of potatoes and onions has been completed and the harvesting of lily bulbs is nearing completion. Next on the agenda is the plowing of the fields for next year's crops. Summer goes, and winter comes, and spring returns, but the farmers' work it seems, goes on forever. Sam Glass, the ex-Marine and associate farmer. Jias put on a night shift man, and his name is Samuel D. Glass. Floyd Charley mentioned to us the other day that he liked lo read our stories about old times. He said his father, when a boy, worked at the Bybce farm and operated the ferry boat, which crosses where the Bybee bridge is now. We will say to Floyd that the trouble with getting the old time stories is that it is hard to find anyone that has been here longer than we have. Election Choices Now, as to the 10 measures to he voted on at next election, we are going along wilh the Oregon State Grange, as it has committees to go over the measures and make recommendations as a guide to the members. Seven of the 10 measures were endorsed. "Yes" voles were suggested for Nos. 1 to 5, inclusive, Nos. 7 and 9. "No" votes-were advised for No. 6, and 8 (now off the ballot). No recommendation was made on No. 10. As to the candidates for the various offices, we are personally acquainted with most of them, and feel that there are many good ones in each party, but feel there is nothing to cause me to cross party lines, so as of now, I will be voting Democratic right down the line. Some of the candidates we feel should be elected, and would vote for them even if they were on another ticket. One of these is Senator Wayne Morse, whom I have known for several years. Sometimes 1 have throught he was wrong, but only to find later that he was dead right. He is a towering giant in Congress, where he fights long and hard for what he believes is right. Yet he is never too high up to reach down and give a helping hand to the little guy. We know no man in his position that has done so much for as many people who needed help. Another we have known and worked with, and would especially recommend is Ralph James, the Democratic candidate for county judge. He is experienced, efficient, impartial. Bob Duncan, we haven't known as well, hut we have known of his record in Ihe stale legislature, where he proved himself a man of ability who ran make decisions. We believe will go far in his line of endeavor. Can't Remember A Better Slate In conclusion, we would say that we have been around here for a long time and can't remember when the Democrats in this county and stale have ever had a better lineup of candidates. Space will not allow a description nf each one, hut If the Lord Is willing, we will be at the polls election day lo make our mark in the right place. We would recommend that every voter read the Voters Pamphlet, which gives much information 'regarding elections and a good description of the candi dates and what they stand for, and even what they look like. Things nationally, and internationally are beginning to look rather gloomy, so to change the subject, we men tion the following: We hoard Dr. Brower, a 00-year-old minister, on Art Linklelter s radio program, tell of preaching a sermon which he thought was going over good, when a man in the audience got up and walked out. After the sermon was over he asked Ihe man's wife what offended him. She replied: "He wasn't offended; he just has a habit of walking in his sleep."
