A well attended meeting ot the

above the Hall & Reynolds Drug store.
A great many letters hsve been re
ceive! by the Secretary from atrangera
who have heard about Lake Countv.
and all of them were reported aa being
attended to in the way of supplying
the information deaired. The members
of the club are making an endeavor to
aecure furniture and other neceasitiea
for the rooms thev are now located in.
and with that end in view an October
assessment of SI. 00 has been called for
from each member.
T. F. Duniwav. General Superinten
dent of the N.-C-.O. Rv.. or a reore-
aentative having power to act for bim
will be in Lakeview in a day or ao to
definitely decide upon the location of
the depot grounds. A few weeks ago
the Examiner stated that a site at
the foot of Center and Fine Streets
had been tentatively agreed unon. and
the word tentatively was used advised
ly. Manv ofcfectiona were met with in
connection with the proposed site, and
now it is likelv that th original loca
tion at the foot of Center street, next
the fair grounds, ia to again receive
consideration.
It is well known that Chief Engineer
Oliver favors the Fine Street location.
and iust what the result will be is
matter ot much speculation. II. W.
Drenkcl has withdrawn his offer of a
free light of way and depot grounds in
his addition, and other complications
have arisen which make it seem prob
able thst it will be necessary for the
railroad people to abandon some of the
grade arleadv constructed and come in
to Lakeview further west.
The entire grade from Davia Creek
to Lakeview is now practically com
pleted and the steel gang Tuesday com
menced laving rails around Sugar H;ll.
Tha railroad officials are anxious to
comr icnce work on the Lakeview de
pot at once, and it is likelv that next
week will see ground broken for the
erection of the tuilding.
To whom it may concern : Owing
to tne lack of appreciation, mv free

We desire to tender our sincere

J. J. Watson who was reported lost
on the headwaters of Camo Creek.

Salem. Oct 4. R. E. Lee Stiner.
auperintendent of the Oregon State
Insane Asvlurn. was re-elected to that
position for another four vears by the
board of asvlurn trustee todsv. hia
present term exoirfne January 1. 1912,
and his second four-year-terra itartins;
at that date.
, Mr. Stiner was aopointed when Got- ,
emor Chamberlain. Secretary of State
Benson and State Treasurer Steel
formed tbe board. It waa understood
that Mr. Stiner was the personal choice
of Secretary Benson, as they were
close friends.
During- troubles which arose daring;
tbe last legislature, in which Dr.
Stiner was attacked, the members of
the State Board, including Governor
West. State Treasurer Kay and Secre
tary Benson, warmly espoused the
cause of Stiner. and were not backward
in declaring that Stiner was being at
tacked purely through political motives.
Thia appreciation, which was shown
Dr. Stiner bv tbe members of the board,
made It a foregone conclusion that be
would be retained as superintendent of
the largest institution controlled bv the
state. He will, in addition to bia duties
as superintendent of the central aavlunu
have much to aav in the development
of tbe Eastern Oregon Branch Insane
Hospital. A superintendent probably
will not be name! for that institution
inside of a year at least, and Dr.
Stiner will have the principal dictation
aa to the apparatus and furnishings of
the buildings.
A five-niece orhestra will be present
and render music for the occasion, and
as the committee members are all
hustlers it is expected that a very
lurge attendance will be present.

Dr. Andrew C. Smith State Senator

A special election to be held Tues
day. November 7. 1911. has oeen called
in Silver Lake. Summer Lake. Paisley.
Lake and Fort Rock precincts to deter
mine whether the sale of intoxicating;
liquors shall be prohibited therein.
At first it waa thought that the-eoeoial
elcetion held at Paisley Tuesday of this
week would invalidate the election on
the liquor Question, but in considering
the question later on it was ascertained
that Paisley will not be an incorporated
town until after the result of the Nov
ember election is known.
It seems that after passing upon the
election at Paisley bv the Countv Court
the matter haa to be passed upon by j
the Attorney General before it becomes !
a full-fledged town, and therefore it i
was decided to grant the petition for I
tne election to vote on tne liquor ques
tion. As both the Silver Lake Leader and
Chewaucan Post favor a license system
over existing conditions, and thev pro
bably represent the wishes of a ma
jority of the people in their respective
sections, it is likely that the wets will
again be in the majority. However,
it Is absolutely certain that thev will
know that they are having; a scrap be
fore the election is held.
