Serious Offense Against
A Young Girl to Be
Punished
The man. who coininite I a statuto
ry ciime agaiust a girl les thau It ;
years of akie, one James Clifford, it I
Mee'ns realizing the gravity aud hein- I
oustiess nf his act, succeeded in allud I
lug the otlicers of the law, and so far1
has escaped arrest. The County j
Co"rt realizing that such crimes;
hhould not go u n pun s cd, have
ott ered a reward of oj tor bis ap
pehensioo and arrest. i der tbe fol
lowing order of tbe i.rt:
Whereas, it apps e from tbe re
cords of tbe Jul. tl Court, of tbe
towu of Lakeriew, Oregon, that one
James Clifford has committed tbe I
xwfiil crime of Contributing to the!
delinquency of a female child, and J
that James Clittord is (dill at large, j
It therefore ,, becomes tbe duty of all I
good citizens to assist the officers of :
the law to apprehend the said .lames ;
Clitrord so that the majesty of tbe ,
law shall) not only tie vindicated and 1
the guilty punished, but that every '
father and mother within the confines
of Lake Cwuuty shall feel safe aud ;
secure iu the protection of their!
daughters und all ) as to the purity ot
their childhood lives guaranteed
them by the laws of the State of Oie-
Now, therefore, iu conformity with
the law and tu the end that justice !
may be done aud the guilty pun- '
isned : It is hereby ordered by the
I'nuiity Court, ot Lake County, Ore- :
gon, while Mttiig for t tie transaction '
of County btisino.-s, that a reward in ,
the sum nf K1VK Hl"NI)KI) i?")H0i
D JLLAKS le and the same is hereby !
ottered for the arrest and convict iou j
of the said James Clifford tor the :U- !
leg" ! crime Contributing to the '
('el i inp-ieucy of a tetnale child.
There are uo extenuating circuin-j
stances for this crime. The fact j
that the girl contributed to Iter own
delinquency is uo excuse, The age
of couseut iu this state is 18 years,
consequently she had no consent to
give. And any man who breaks the
law in this respect is puuisbable by
imprisonment (if not less than 25
years.
If caught this man Clifford will pay
pretty dearly foi' his crime, and so
will auy other man iu u like predica
ment. Tbe officers are deterimued to
stop this crime against young girls
aud any caught in snob reprehensible
uouduct will suffer tbe full penalty
of tbe law, no matter who may be tbe
defendant. , i

ANOTHER TARIFF
INCONSISTENCY!!
Beef Trust Wants Tariff
Removed Because j&ef
Is Getting Scarce
CHICAGO. Oct. 19. The . Ameri
can Packers, who are in session here,
will probably urge tbe abolitiou of i
tbe tariff on meats unless tbe cat lei
raisers of the west do something to
relieve the preseut comparative short- j
age cf cuttle.
This Iv as the prediction made to- !
day bv tieueral Michael tiyan.the pre-
ideut of the American Packem Assocl
Htion. In mi interview with tue I'nit
ted t'ress he said " The coo.utry is
confronted with a shortage of meat
and if the present shrinkage contin
ues there will not be enough. Unless
more cattle Hie raised it is u sure
thing that thw tarill' will! have to lie
removed. Argentine is shipping beef
to Englahd aud this ia being sold at
reasonable prices. Without the tariff
the greater part of tbe shipments
I could be diverted to 'his country.
If all of tbe packers joined iu a peti
tion for tne removal of tbe tariff it
would uot be a difficult matter to
have it removed." ' !

Tbe Czar of Russia is to engage in

Valley. It is very likely tl at, be-is

ment, and iniy consider that 'bing ;
