that we may date the beginning of a
new and prosperous Faisley from that
day. Governor West came among us
practically as a stranger. He left,
having made a friend of every man.
woman and child with whom he came
in contact.
On Thursday of last week, a com
mittee from the Paisley Commercial
Club waited on the Governor and his
party at Lakeview and invited ihcm
to come to 1'aislcy, to personally in
spect the 1'ortland Irrigation Com
pany a project, which haa so long re
tarded the growth of this community.
Through Dr. B. Daly an invitation
was also extended to the people of
Lakeview. to come and be our guests
at a banquet, to be given in honor of
the governor. So, when the automo
biles drew up in front of the hot' l at
noon on Sunday, the personnel of the
party was as follows : Governor Os
wald West. Attorney General Craw
ford, State Treasurer Kay. State En
gineer Lewis. State Land Agent Kine
hart. Dr. B. I'.ly. County 'Judge ; A.
J. Foster. County Assessor; L. V.
Conn and V. L. Snelling. of Lakeview.
A very nice luncheon was
be forgotten. We venture to any that
it was the best meal ever served in
I'ai.iley. Immediately at its conclusion
the governor and his party took the
road again to Silver Lake, where it
was planned to shiu the night. V,
Conn, R. B. Jackson and A. J. Foster
accompanied them and. on the wa)',
showed them the irrigation plant at
Ana Kiver. They arrived at Silver
Lake about midnight and left at 7. a.
in. the following morning. The Tais-
ley escort returned, arriving home at
noon, Mondav. Long live the Gover
nor! He has made a host of friends
in Chewaucan and Summer Lake

The county has appropriated 11.1.000
for the purchase of the land, and the
; legislature provided H.IHH) annually
j for maintaiiiance. The college has not
named the man to take charge of the
j work, but will do so at the July meet
i ing of the board of regents, probably
J aUmt the 15th. The best ilry farming

the Portland Irrigation Co,
sides of the tract were to lie seen
growing crops which the settlers were
raising by dry farming methods, prov
ing conclusively that this new science
is applicable to all the land in the
valley. But. most imiwrtant of all
the Desert Land Board saw that the
above named irrigation company hud
not done a thing toward fulfilling their
contract with the state. The virgin
desert luy there in all its nakedness,
not a shovelful of dirt had been turn
ed. It was at once a disgusted and
delightfcl Desert Land Board that re-
turned to town, disgusted that a com-1
munity should be hampered in its (
growth by a set of outsiders who only ;
desired to enrich themselves at the
peopel's expense, and delighted with
the prospects of future development
prospects which they have it in their
power to hasten to fulfilment.
Thee Governor very kindly consented
to say a few words to the people who
gathered to greet him. so an automo
bile was drawn up in the shade
it was surrounded by an eager
ex pectant audience. Dr. B. Daly,
a few well chosen words, introduced
the governor, who spoke standing on
the rear sett of the machine. He ex
pressed his pleasure at seeing so many
ladies present, admitting that he owed
his election as governor largely to the
ladies of the state. He believes in
woman sufferage, although Mrs. West
does not, and considers women more
nonest on the average than men. Tak
ing up the serious matters connected
with his visit, the Governor stated
that the Portland Irrigation Co. had
failed utterly to comply with the terms
of their contract and that he and
the other members of the Board are
1 in favor of cancelling it. This, he
assured his hearers, would undoubtedly
( be done. After that it is matter of
very serious consideration what is
! the best course to take with 'the land
sojas to secure its settlement and cul
tivation. He had in his mind several
methods but, until he has consulted
with the attorney general, was not
sure of their feasibility, lie would
like to make it a state project, bring
ing here about 200 convicts to do the
ditching and all the other work. "Why
not build a penitentiary here," he said,
"and when the work is all done, turn
it into a high school?" He promised
us a Government Experiment Station
for Lake county and also said that it
should be located at Paisley. Every
one was impressed with the candor and
frankness of the governor, for no one
who heard him could possibly doubt
his sincerity. In introducing State
Treasurer Kay, Governor West stated
that, while Mr. Kay was rather bald,
such had not always been the case;
that he had started out with plenty of
hair but coming across the desert the
wind had blown most of it off.
Mr. Kay, in a very pleasing address,
added his assurance that the Desert
Land Board would make short work of
the Portland Irrigation Co. He was
followed by Attorney General Craw
ford, State'Engineer Lewis, State Land
Agent Rinehart and two local spell
binders Dr, A. A. Witham and Rev. F.
L. Young. The close of the speech
On both If or 12 petition circulators may

Two suits will grow out of the ref

case to test the validity of the refer

fictitious. Deducting the frauds from
the genuine signatures would not leave
enough names to muke the referendum
hold water.
The circulators used names from
the city directory, the telephone di-
; rectory, and invented others. They are
j habitues of billiard parlors, and wrote
j the n'imcs in the poolrooms and in the
; lodging houses nearby,

interchange their nume sheets, ('dlcr, .

to a single sheet. One sheet, contain
ing many names, has just three genuine
signatures - all the rest being rank
forgeries. There is page after page in .
the referendum petitions loaded with
fraud in this manner. f
For several weeks operatives of the
detective agency have been working1
on the case and running down forger-

! Tne Dalles, Ore., July II. In one of
the worst disasters that fVtr befell a
railroad in Oregon, the southbound
local on the Oregon Trunk wn wreck
ed at the 2f.-mi!e post south of the
mouth of the Dchi'IiuUb river at 3:10
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The fatal derailment came while the
train whs trying to make up 40 min
utes 1. it-1 tune and was running about to
miles ii n hour around a "shoo-lly"
curve that pasres one of the tunnel
sites, of the new Hill line.
The killed are: Louis J. Hising,
Warm Springs Indian Reservation,
Mrs. L. J. Rising. Mrs. J. W. Rasmus,
Ellsworth. Wis., Mrs. C. II. linker,
Sheridan, Oregon. S. T. Arthur, 103.1

Seriously injured : ('. H. Raker,

Morris Baker. Sheridan, Ore., George I kikst BaCIIsI
McKillip, Vancouver. Ilreman.
Advices received by General Super
intendent J. Russet of the Oregon
Trunk line indicate that the probable i
cause of the wreck was excessive '
speed, with the probability that there
was a "sun kink" in the track. '
The place where the wreck oceurcd 1
is an 11 degree curve, safe for a pecii
limit of 10 miles an hour. It is es- j
timated the train must have been rutin-1
ing o miles an hour when the accident
took place, lici'iaise of the position of .
the cars. The baggage car, the only
one in the train that did not go down
the embankment, ran 2'.i.r feet over the
ties hefore stopping. Iwo other cars
piled upon the locomotive, thus scald
ing the passengers. Had it not been
for this unfortunate resting place of
the passenger cars probably no one
would have been seriously injured.
A "sun kink" is sometimes caused
by excessive heat and is the result of
the rails trying to expand, crowding
together joints and buckling out. The
wreck took place at what is called

charging Coler with forgery. After
Coler was arrested and locked up a
second warrent was applied for and
another circualtor is being hunted for

to have confessed not only to the

people hitherto not suspected in the

For circulating the petitions, of
which there were three, two against
the university and one against the
Monmouth appropriation, the circula
tors received 7 cents for each name

signatures to one petition 2 cents was
paid, although there were circulators

Sheep Decreasing
According to the Census Bureau,
the sheep industry has not shown any
material change since the last census
in l'JOO. Excluding lambs, because of
the difference in the time of year
when the census was taken, it is shown
that there were 39.470.:il2 wool pro-
-
to ducing sheep in 1910, as compared with
3!.Hri2,7 for l'JOO. Corrected figures
are expected to show an actual de
crease of about 1 per cent from l'JOO.
Taking the returns by geographical
divisions, there was a decrease of about
1.000,000 sheep in the North Atlantic
divison, in the South Atlantic, division
there was a decrease of about 151,000,
and in the South Central division there
was scarcely any change, lO.OMM&l
being reported in l'JIO, or only some
14.000 more than in l'JOO. The western
division showed an Increase of about
1.000,000 sheep.
