Mike Oall.iKher, a contractor, who
hus been In Klamath County since
early last summer, died this morning
at thu Klamath House. Mr. Gallag
her was nbout flu years of ago and
worked for Money liros,, and later
had a sub-contract under V. II. Ma
son on the Kovurnment ditch. Ho Is
said to have been un cxporleuccd
railroad and ditch contractor.
Ur. Hamilton attended the man
Just before his death, and states that
death was duo to opium poison,
probably from taking an overdose of
lauuanum. .Mr. uauasner, wno was
nn expert workman, had one 'great
fault, drink. Ho had saved up about
a thousand dollars during the sum
mer, but for a number of weeks has
been drinking, heavily and squander
ed nearly all of his savings. Ho had
the delirium tremens a number of
times, und yesterday ho requested
the attendant to give him some laud
anum so that ho could go to sleep.
which wns refused. It Is helloed
that he feared another attack, and
must have persuaded somo one to
get tho laudanum for him. No bottle
or other evidence was found, and al
though n diligent Inquiry was made.
no kuowledgo was gained as to where
the opiate was secured.

PASSED EXAMINATION.
Tho following were successful In
tho teachers' examination last week
In securing grades for county pa
pers: It. II, Dunbar, A. E. Elder,
W. A. Boudlnot, H. E. Leo, Ernest
Ilurnham, ll. P. Alexander, Archyo
Klrkcndall, Cora Grltnth, Veda Mul
koy, Allco Lytle, Jano Olven, Rachael
Applegatc, Ida Orlmcs nnd Kuby
Nichols. There were 14 passed out
of IS who took tho examination.
Prcsldont Alex. Martin, Jr., of thu
Klamath Water Uavrs Asioclatlon,
received a telegram Saturday even
ing from Attorney II. S. Smith stat
ing that Secretary Garfield know
nothing aboui tho work being lu's
ponded on tho Klamath Project. Mr.
Martin was asked If tho Association
had any knowledge of tho work be
ing stopped, nnd replied that the
Astoclatlon had no oOlrlal knowledge
whatever of any action of tho lloclu
matlon Service stopping work on the
project.
Secretary Chastaln, ot tho Associa
tion, stated that no notification had
been received by tho office and that
tho only knowledge ho had of the
matter, further than tho letter from
Garfield, was from a personal con
versation he had with Mr. Murphy,
who told him that ho had been or
dered to stop worlt.
Tho news that Garfield did not
know anything about tho work being
ordered stopped Is not significant, as
all orders pertaining to tho Uoclamn
Hon Scrvlco would naturally omanato
from Mr. Nawell, tho head of that
branch of tho Interior Department.
In fact all of tho correspondence re
ceived by tho'Assoclatlon, which was
sont out under Mr. Garfield's signa
ture, camo from tho head of the Re
clamation Service, and tho only way
Mr. Garfield would be liable to have
knowlcdgo of any particular order,
would bo by his special attention bo
lug called to tho matter.
This was tho purpose, which It
given by somo of the director! of the
Association, for sending a represen
tative to Washington.' Tho Reclama
tion Scrvlco has mado Its decision
and order, and there Is not much
liopo to get this changed unless Sec
retary Garfield should order other
wise. There has been considerable mis
understanding among the people at
to Just what Attorney Smith wat or
dered to do In Washington. The res
olution authorizing sending him there
rends ho Is to go to Washington as
tho representative of tho Water'Us
ers Association "for and on behalf
or said Association to securo some
relief from the charges for water
rights." Tho letter received from
tho Department In regard to the, prob
ability of stopping work If tho Asso
ciation Intended to repudiate their
contracts, called for a reply, and Mr.
mlth was sent to Washington to
make the reply In person.
