Bend Bulletin: As a result of aj
southern trip made by Secretary Saw- ;
hill of the Bend Commercial Club and
Central Oregon Development League. .
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.
