NO. 33
NO DAIRY STOCK
ON REGULAR TRAIN
D una way 8 ays N.-O.-O.
Will Qlve Special Care
To Stock.
Owing to the fact that It la likely
tbat aeveral shipmenta of dairy cut t la
will ba made to Lakaiw during tha
coming Fall, am effort wai made to
have the N.-C-O. management attach
the cara to the regular paeienger train,
thua avoiding lay-overs and much
trouble and Inconvenience. In reply
General Manager Dunaway atatea that
it la Impoaaible to handle atock on
that train, owing to the epeed required
to aatlify the pa bile, and further that
In caae of accident the railroad com
pany would be In bad with every one.
There are awlaya two lidea to a ques
tion, and In thla Inatanca It would aeem
tbat the railroad company got off
right. While the ahlppera ot dairy
cattle would be greatly benefitted to
have their cattle brought in in VI
houra. Instead of being compelled U
atop over en route, yet none will con
tend that should an accident befall the
passenger train when hauling a car
load of cattle but that the railroad
company would be censured severely
for making a "stock train out of the
paaaenuer."
However, Mr. Dunaway adds that
bis company will give special atten
tlon to shipments of dairy atock and
endeHVor to set them through in good
shae. He also raqueata that the com
pany be given aeveral day'a notice of
the arrival of the shipments, in order
that preparations may bo made for
their care en route to Lakeview.
Death Change Schedule
Senator Joseph F. Johnston of Ala
bama die'd last week at hia apartments
in Washington. Hia death weakens
the democratic ma iority on the admin
istration tarilf bill in the senate,
though party leadera Insist tbat there
still will be no serious difficulty in
pausing the measure.
In the democratic aenate caucua it
waa declared that 44 senators aaid
they would aepport the bill on ita final
psHsage. At that time Senatora Rand
sell and Thornton of Louisana were
the only one to declare they would
vote against the bill because of tho
sugar schedule. On the basis of the
caucua alignment, democratic leaders
figured that tha vote on the tariff bill,
without deflections from each aide,
would be 49 to 47 for Ita passage. The
death of Senator Johnaton leavea the
calculation 48 to 47.
ENVOY LIND WILL
STUDYMNDITIONS
President Outlines Some
Actions To Be Taken To
ward Mexico.
John Lind, personal representative
of President Wilson, arrived safely in
Mexico City Sunday night, and the
Washington officials have oeen assured
of hia courteous treatment in Mexico.
Administration nflU-ials have declared
that no further steps would be taken
in carrying out the policy of the United
States toward Mexico until Mr. Lind
has made a careful study of the situa
tion there.
While Mr. Lind was enrouta to the
Mexican capitol a long conference was
held between President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan at Washington and
the aenate foreign relatione committee
brought no change In the attitude of
the administration tnward Mexico.
However, the president took the sen
ators into hia confidence far enough to
outline the following:
Tbat John Lind. hia special envoy to
Mexico City, does not bear any solu
tion of the present situation, but goea
to continue thia government'a effort to
induce Provisional President Huerta
to redeem bla promlae for free and
constitutional elections.
That under no clrcumstanoea does
the administration propose to recognize
the Huerta government.
That Mr. Lind has gone to Mexico
City to be the "eyes and ears" of the
Washington administration on the
ground, and to explain the attitude of
thla government when he has fully
familiarized himself with the situa
tion : tbat by withdrawing Ambassador
Wilson a-id sending Mr. Lind the
president planned to have a man on
the ground who waa In sympathy with
the administration here, and waa In no
sense a factor In the situation in Mex
ico City.
While tho president disclosed no
definite plan for the pacification of
Mexico, the implication remained tbat
upon Llnd'a reports would depend to
largo extent toe future policy of
thia country.
There was practically no talk of
lifting the embargo on the Importation
ot arma into Mexico, which some
members of tbe committee believe
would pot a speedy end to the diffi
culties. President Wilaon was firmly of the
belief tbat intervention will not be
necessary and some memtoro of the
committee, who went to tbe white
house disturbed In mind, came away
with the belief that perhaps much of
the recent talk In tbe aenate bad been
unwarranted.
It waa reiterated after the confer
ence tbat Mr. Lind'a movementa will
be left largely to hia diacretion, after
he had talked with William Bavard
Hale and other cloae friends of tbe
administration familiar with the sit
ae ion In the Mexican capital.
Forest Lands Eliminated
Senator Chamberlain, who has been
urging the elimination of agricultural
landa from Oregon National forests
has been notifies that by the Forest
Service that 350, 000 acrca in Paulina
foreat, near Cressor. and La Pine will
be eliminated and opened to general
public entry Immediately, also 60,000
acres in Descnutea Forest, along the
Deschutes Hlver. The service also
will revoke the order against listing
agricultural landa within the Siuslaw
forest. Thia will make available for
entry all agricultural landa in tbe
Siualaw forest suitable tor agriculture
or grazing.
IRISHlLLlVE
PICNICJiBOR DAY
Many Events Being: Plann
ed Which Will Be Open
To All.
At a meeting held Monday night by
the Ancient Order of Hibernians it
waa decided to have a big picnic at
the Hog Ranch, Camais Prairie, on
Labor Day. Thia picnic will be open
to the public, and aa a meana of enter
tainment a long list of aporta to include
horse racing, jumping conteats, foot
races, recitations, singing, band play
ing, etc. ia now being made up. All
wbo come are requested to bring along
their lunches. There will be no ad
mission fe charged, and every peraon
who desires is entitled to enter any of
the events. Those who attended tbe
big picnic given last year by the Irish
residents ot the county will look for
ward to this year's event with much
interest, and for the list of events,
prlzea, etc. should watch the next is
sue of this paper.
RAINBOWTRlT
AREUBERATED
Eggs Hatch Successfully
and over 100,000 Fish
are Planted.
Of the one hundred ami ten thousand
rainbow trout eggs recently received
from Crescent Lne, it is estimated
that one hundred thousand or the trout
in the fingering atage were liberated
in tbe various streams of tbe county.
Tbe longest haul made in planting tbe
trout was to Anna River at Summer
Lake. Quite a tew were lout in re
moving them to that place but other
from thia practically all the fiah were
safely liberated.
Among the st roams which were
stocked were Crane Creek, Thomas
Creok. Cottonwood, Crooked Creek,
Twelve Mile, Deep Creek, Chewaucan
River, Ana Klver and other streams
of the county. By stocking these
stresma with Rainbow trout it is quite
likely tbat in a few years that this
section will become a favorite retreat
for anglera and campers. It will take
these fish about two yeara to attain a
size which will permit ot their being
caught under the lawa of Oregon.

WILLISD0N1WAY
SUDDENLY DIES
R. A. Harris Is Appointed
State Printer State In
Embarrasing Position.
Willis Scott Duniway, State Printer,
died last week in Portland. He bad
been suffering from valvular heart
trouble for about 17 years, but hia
health did not break down until three
years ago. He 'was a native son of
the state of Oregon and was a aon ot
Mrs. Abigal Scott Duniway wbo has
been one of the most prominent wom
en in the state.
Mr. Duniwav hud long been in the
public eye. for he hud been identi'it'd
j for many years with important pol l i
!cal and economic movements. He
i an effective public speaker and a co n
jpetent public official. Ha waa var.
j much in earnest in bis efforts to se
cure reforms in the dudiic pruning
and he succeeded over strenuous an I
often aorid opposition.
James E. Godfrey of Salem Ural
loomed up as the successor to Mr
Duniway'a office, but on the day of
the latteTr'a funeral Governor West ap
pointed R. A. Harris, recently state
printing expert to till the vacancy.
Under a law paused at the session of
the Legislature in 1911 the aDpointee
will Berve aa State Printer until Jan
uary 1, 1915, at a salarv of $4000 a
year. An act passed at the 1913 ses
sion, which will become operative Jan
uary 1. 1915, providea for a State
Printer at a salary of $1800 a year.
The legislature of 1911 passed a flat
Balary bill for the state printer whioh
was to become effective January 1,
1915, when Mr. Dunlway'a term ot
office would have expired. Soon after
the close of the session of the legisla
ture they initiated a bill to put the
flat salary into effect at once. It was
defeated in every county.
Tbe Legislature at tbe recent session
passed a till providing for a new sys
tem in state printing, part of which
may be let by contract. Mr. Duniway
urged after the passage of thia meas
ure the repeal of the one ot 1911,
arguing tbat should be die or another
emergency arise, under the old aet tbe
state would have to purchaae a print
ing plant, which would become useless
when tbe law providing for tbe eon
tract ayatem become effective Jan
uary 1, 1915. The law repealing tbe
measure was paesed. bat tbe Governor
vetoed it, announcing that it might be
the meana of a referendum being in
voked on the 1913 law restoring tbe
old ayatem.
The Boose passed tbe bill over tbe
veto, but tba Senate sustained it by a
email vote.
An appropriation of 12000. for tbe
purchase oi a printing plant waa made
by tba flat aalary bill. Whether an
attempt will be made to purchase tbe
plant of Mr. Duniway or a new one
will be obtained baa not been divulged.
However the law makee it mandatory
tbat a plant be provided, and under
the law it will be of no use to the
state after January 1. 1915.

such pastime waa too tame to aatiafy
their lofty ambitions and tbe most of
tbeir time was spent in trailing the
restive deer. However, their tearchee

burned facea and improved appetites.
A near tragedy occurred when one
young man almost made a target of
himself for another ty being suspected
lor a deer, but this near castrophe loat
all phases of seriousness when it waa
learned tbat a real buck posed for
seven shots before the same young
man who was behind the kud in tbia
case. Apparently the deer did not
realize bia imminent danger aa after
tbe bombardment ceased, tirine of
remaining ao long in one position, be
peacefully meandered to other quar

Parisian Owners Return
After Buying Swell Line
of Millinery.
"I did not see them carry out aix
victims of heat and prostration a min
ute in Chicago but it waa hot enough
to make n e do w hat Spareribs is al
ways trying to do Call a taxi' and
beat it for the nearest depot and tell
the engineer to pull her wide open and
go aa fast as he likej aa long ai be
would bring us back to Lake County."
Thus ruminated J. Cbas. Smith, of
tbe Parisian Milliner", who returned
last Thursday evening in company with
Mrs. Smith from tue Windy City
wbe e they went several daya since to
purchase tneir all atock ot millinery.
"While in Chicago 1 backed up aa
close aa I could to the ice trust," ex
plained Smith, "but even the blocks
of congealed water radiated heat. I
hailed a passing mint julep, and my
thermometer went, clear over the
hurdles. 1 tried buttermilk, but some
how couldn't enjoy it parboiled.
"1 saw people go out and fall into
the lake with their olotbea on. Tbey
would come out steaming like a bot
towel. The nights were worse than
the dava. No breeze, no air, nn rest,
no comfort, no nothing, - but heat,
hellish and persistent.
"The sun made a perfect batting
average for aoout ten successive daya
and fielded hia position without an
error.
Mr. Smith also added "we bought a
line of millinery and ladies' furnish
ings that Is the best ever, which will
soon be on display at the Parisian."
