FARMlNGTON PIONEER
TO HANG IN OREGON

Oliver Megorden Is to be hanged in
seven years ago Oliver was a pioneer
in the Pennington country, where
Pennington is now building and hold
ing Its head up for recognition among
the constellation of western towns
and cities. Just 81 years ago Oliver
where the Animas river empties into
the San Juan. with a smudge fire try.
Ing to cook his breakfast He had an
old. worn-Out comforter and blanket
which had been rained on the night
before, and was trying to dry them
under the clouds of the retiring storm
Asked why he had camped In the will.
lows he said that he was afraid OF the
Indians that they were devilish and
made lots of trouble. He had nothing
to steal, but was an adventurer with
nothing to lose.
Oliver had had the misfortune to
engage in the printing business and
had worked on the Pueblo Chieftain
and Canon City Times, and still hay
ing the smell, used to write 10 the
Chieftain about the new country, made
new by Its abandonment by the Aztec
race.
II might be said that Megorden was
a queer character. because he always
seemed queer In his ideas and actions.
He had ranch and sold 1t and kept
the money until he got married. He
| could have lived better the life OF a
hermit and had more money.
Not having peculiarly strong char
| acter, he could not afford to be pio-
neer, and the conclusion might have
been that he became demorallzed in
contest or conquest which he could not
! meet on grounds fair to himself.
There have been brighter people be
fore Oliver and there have been some
since. But his hanging for killing his
wife Will engage the attention and dis
cussion OF those who knew him.
II has not been learned why he Kill
ed his wife.

In the popular view" he continued
1t Is held that disease Is a calamity.
that its end Is destruction, and That
1t Is purposeless, except In one direc-
tion-that of doing harm.
Popular terms bear testimony to
the prevalence of that belief. A man
is said to be struck down by disease.
as by the avengiIg angel 1t seizes
upon him as 1t does a roaring lion. II
consumes him as does a fire. The
attitude of the medical man toward
disease is that of an opponent to
deadly influences.
He has to combat an enemy to
mankind whose every movement is
dark and malicious. There is no symp-
tom of disease that is not believed To
be noxious, and, as sucn, must BE-
stamped out with relentless determfn-
alton.

must be stayed. II he coughs, the

precisely than by saying that, If II

Special Phone to The Herald

TELLURIDE. Nov. s.-Monday fore
noon two men armed with rifles and
revolvers arrived in Marshal basin
from the ouray side OF the range.
They were hard looking Characters,
one having cut lip. They went TO
Rodgers livery and hired two horses
to make round trip to Telluride. SO
they stated. Arriving in this place
they put up their saddle animals at
one OF the stables and stating they
had urgent business at Ophir. asked
for team to be returned next day.
This was provided, but the team not
being returned next morning, inquiry
revealed the fact that the men had
continued to Rico, where they arrived
Monday night, making the remarkable
drive in less than four hours, tne
horses being in perfect foam.
The sheriff at Rico was unable to
locate the men and the sheriff of Mon
replied this morning that the men on
foot had stopped at ranch about 10
miles from Cortez last night and dis
patch about 10 O'Clock from the mar
shal at Dolores verified the Cortez dis
patch The sheriff of Montezuma
county wired later that he and posse
of men were on the trail and had no
doubt of overtaking the men, who were
evidently making for the Blue mount
aims. The men may resist arrest ana
a fight will ensue. officials in Tel
luride are inclined to the belief that
the men are desperate characters and
are making for the Blue mountain
country to escape from some crime

from Mr.. Causey at Denver, saying
that when he sold the $105. 900 water
bonds for Durango he had deposited
a certified check for $1,000 to carry
the faith OF selling the bonds; that he
had sold the bonds and desired to have
$1,000 returned to his credit Proper
action was taken to restore the
money
A communication was read from ].
c. Copeland, who had suggested that
in order 10 protect employment agen-
cies it might be well to fix a license
fee of s25; but that since an ordin-
ance had been passed to this effect
business had dropped off, and Mr..
Copeland thought SIS would be
enough. The council thought $25
would not be too much when times
are good, and decided to make 1t s25
and rebate when times are not good.
Attorney Willis A. Reese mad abb
sented himself from the city, but be
fore going had contemplated the coun.
ell meeting and directed communi-
cation to the aldermen regarding the
payment of ranch and water creditors
with reference to deferring the pay
ments of notes due the city.
The last months bills were read by
Mayor Mcconnell and approved The
detail was little longer by reason of
the greater number of people employ
ed in extinguishing the fire at the Fa-
nous store.
Ordinance No. 420 experienced its
final passage and then Ordinance No.
42l, affecting employment agencies,
went through.
When Ordinance i22 came on to re-
peal an older ordinance entitled No.
229," there was ripple and scurry
which had not attended the other or
dinances. No. 229 was passed fifteen
years ago to StOD bakeries and non
corn and bootblack stands on Sunday.
Alderman Rivers said he thought 229
should not be repealed until a new or
dinahce of intermediate character and
substance should be framed to take
its place. The council did not agree
with Mr.. Rivers and 229 was repealed.
The smallpox cases came up again
Whether the county or city should pay
all the bills had been a question AL
derman Balster said Chairman Logan
OF the county commissioners had
taken the position that the smallpox
cases were county cases and that DR..
Haggart, having direction, should have
full pay for his claim. Mr. Balster
urged that under the ordinance DIR.
Haggart had no right to delegate DR..

man Berndt said that the councils
offer to compromise on the payment
OF $4S6 had been turned down through

Gov. Hoch's Opinion.

TOPEKA, Kas., Nov. s.-Gov. Hoch
Rep, said;
THE most striking thing about the
election yesterday is the strong evi,
dence of Roosevelt's spirit of reform
abroad In the land. This is shown by
the election of men OF Roosevelt's S
party and again by turning down OF
powers opposed to his policy. The
astounding result in Ohio means that
the leadership of Cox Is not that Of a
Republican of the modern type. The
Republican defeat is due not to the
fact that the people loved Democrats,
but that they did not like Cox"
