Paisley has joined the League, steps have been taken for the organization of a commercial club at Fort Rock. . which later will join the big organiza- j tion. and exhibits will oe prepared for Bend. Leaving Friday morning. Mr. Saw hill with C. S. Hudson, S. D. Bennett and P. C. VanWinkle. in the former's car. and returning Sunday, made a trip which included stops at La Pine. Silver Lake. Paisley and Fort Rock. "Il is a revelation to see the devel-1 cpment in the southern country." said Mr. Sawhill. "La Pine is growing like a mushroom but it is not 'mushroom growth,' but the best kind of substan-, tial development. Silver Lake and the ' splendid territory tributary to it is prosperous. Particularly perhaps, I was impressed with the wonderful . strides the Fort Rock country is tak ing. Where two years ago there was practically no habitation now are scores of houses and hundreds of acres of cultivated land, all with promising crops. One result of the Paislev visit is that the commercial club there will get up an exhibit to show at Bend." "I would rather do business in Ore gon than in California, and just (is soon as the railroad gets to Bend I shall get much of my freight from there," wbb the statement of V. Conn, one of Pais ley's largest merchants. The Chicago Tribune is obtaining the views of the different newspapers of the Untied States relative to the traiff bills now being considered by Congress, and in connection therewith the Examiner Tuesday received the following message : "CHICAGO. Aug. 7.- To the Exam iner. Lakeview, Ore: In your judg ment should President Taft sign the wool bill, the farmers free list bill and the cotton bill? Do you believe the President should veto these bills and wait for reports from the tariff com mission on which scientific tariff re duction can be bated? Please tele graph reply at our expense. "THE TRIBUNE." In reply the Examiner sent the fol lowing : LAKEVIEW. Ore., Aug. 7.-The President should veto the tariff bills. Congress should await the report of the tariff commission before taking action. "LAKE COUNTY EXAMINER." Back to Nature Quite a unique exhibit is now on show in the north window of Bailey & MaBsingill's store. It represents an ordinary sportsman, such as may be seen about town. any day now, in khaki uniform, large straw hat. high-topped boots, etc., stretched out at his ease in a large hammock. Scattered about him on the ground are shot guns, rifles, fishing poles, and other implements of this kind, as well as a email bottle of mosquito dope. The work was the creation of Miss Bernice Massingill. Wool Cleaned Up That the 1911 wool clip in Oregon is more completely sold than has been any previous wool clip at this time of the season in years is declared by Charles II. Green, the well known buyer, "There is scarcely 150,000 pounds of unsild wool in the state." says Mr. Green. "Practically all the growers disposed of the clips while the season was active and prices at this time in dicate that they did very well to sell. At times the market has shown up ward spurts but in general the price situation is the same now as when the wool, was purchased." In an interview given out by Attorney-General Crawford, Secretary of State B. W. Olrott ii'impliedly charg ed with unjustly eriticininjr the official acts of late Governor F. W. Benson, and it is stated that no star-chamber meetings have been held by the Desert Land Board until recently. Attorney General Crawford says: "Relative to statements in the pa pers recently, insinuating, if not di reetly asserting, that the meetings of the Desert Land Board in the past were of the 'star-chambered' secies, I wish to say tnat while I have been a mem ber of the Board, since May, 1909, no closed sessions were held until recent ly. 1 was not a member of the Board prior to the time when Mr. Benson be came acting Governor of the State and cannot speak with authority for the previous administration, but during his incumbency, no secret meetings were held. "I was for many yean intimately associated with ex-Governor Benson, now deceased, and while, like many of the rest of us mortals, he may have had his faults, he was a man possessed of many noble qualiitea and always I courted the widest publicity in all his official acts, as did all the other mem bers of the Desert Land Board during his administration. I very much re gret that it is deemed necessary for any one. eitner officially or privately, j to in any way disparage his memory or unjustly criticise his official acts. j "During his incumbency, no closed door sessions were held, and if such sessions are a relic of the past it was prior to his incumbency, or the practice has been inaugurated since he ceased to act as Governor. "Further I wish to say there never has been a rule of tne Board providing that so-called secret sessions might be held, and I know of no instance of ever holding one, unless it was recent ly, when the chairman of the Board requested the representatves of the press to retire and relative to that re quest I wish to be understood that it was not in pursuance of any action of the Board or a wish ot the majority of its members that such request was made. In the past attendance of rep presentatives of the press waa always welcomed to any and all meetings of the Board." Governor West took up the battle for Secretary Olcott, and in reply to the Attorney General's statement said : "The Attorney-General is attempting to hide his own delinquencies behind the tombstone of ex-Governor Benson. Not a word given out to the press relative to the irrigation projects was meant to or did cast reflection on Gov ernor Benson. Personally. 1 nad the highest regard for Governor Benson, and know if it had not been for his ill ness, these matters would never have been allowed to drift into the unfort unate condition we have found them. But. owing to his illness he was oblig ed to leave these matters almost' en- tirely to the Attorney-General and the otner members of the board. Had they given then the attention tnat he would have given them if his health had per mitted, the many settlers would now be harvesting bountiful crops instead of being stranded in the desert, pray ing for water and reading opinions ot the Attorney-General." State Treasurer Kay is making a brave attempt to quell the rising tide of fury between Attorney-General Crawford and Governor West and at the same time bring abeut an amicable settlement between the board in gen eral and the Deschutes Land Company. Klamath Herald: Trouble which has been brewing for some time ! twren Constable John Lambert of Fort Klamath and Bill Donald and Al F.I wood came to a crisis Sunday night at the Fort, when Lambert shot each of the other men through the log and was himself wounded by F.lwood. As a result of the injuries Lambert re ceived, he died at 6 o'olork Momiay morning. The trouble took place late last Sun day night at Jack Berry's saloon. According to the story going the rounds al Fort Klamnth, Ijimbert en tered the saloon where the two men were sitting at a table, and making some remark to them pulled his revol ver and shot at Donald through the card table, the bullet breaking his leg. At this F.lwood started to get up, and he. too, was shot thrugh the leg by a bullet from the officer's weapon. Following this the two wounded men went out the front door and Lambert went out the side door. Barely had the tirt two cleared the threshold before Donald collapsed on account of. his broken leg. Evidently thinking his friend dead, F.lwood went around toward the side door and seeing Lam bert, advanced on him. at the same time pouring a steady fire on him from an automatic pistol. After Lambert fell he was beaten over the head with the weapon. Whether or not Lambert shot durintr this encouter is not known. There has been trouble between Lambert and the two men for a con siderable time, and it is said that this has been bitter since the Fourth, when they had an encounter. Many' charge Flwood and TDonald rwith making threats against Lambert, declaring that they would "get him." Lambert ' has 'been a resident of Klamath County for a number of years, and was well known in Klamath Falls. He was for some time the driver of the stage between here and Merrill.
