A private letter from ]. II. Middleton,
received Friday, states that he and his
are enjoying the sunshine, fruits and
flowers of Southern California, but that
they are one IN the opinion that there
is no place so pretty as Hood River and
its big oaks, and all look forward to
fhe time when, as Mr.. Middleton puts

Al Lawsen, the man arrested fol

being aired In court. That he viii get

earnest wishes of Judge Bradshaw that
the law would allow more, is Il fore

Mr.. Joseph A. Wilson received re-

Wilson went to Portland Monday
night, and it is quite likely that he.wil
proceed in the near future to Ashland
and to develop the mine.
