SHERIFF
HAS THE
REVOLVER
Culver Has the Pistol With
Which Desperate Smith
Did the Deadly Work

The revolver of the outlaw, Smith
with which he killed three of the best
officers of the state, Hanlon, night po-
liceman at Oregon City; Sheriff Shaver
of Claekamas county, and Captain O..
D. Henderson, is in the possession of
Sheriff Culver. Many called at the
sheriff's office to look at the weapon
that did the deadly work. 1t is Colt
4l-ealibre of the most modern model,
of blue steel, with fve-inch barrel, and
is in fine condition. Smith had the end
of the barrel corked with cotton, so as
to prevent dirt from entering the bar
rel. Just where Smith secured the gun
has not yet been aseertained. The des-
perado g little blue, Inflated cap is also
attracting much attention from the
curious ones. 1t is a sort of boys golf
cap, with a narrow band over the
crown. E2sat he might wear it, Smith
ripped it in the back about two inches.
The cap was stolen at Candy, and the
boy who owned it identified it yester-
day, after the fugitive had been killed.
Sixteen cartridges were found on Smith
six were in the magazine.

or car companies and oil companies 10
pay an annual license upon gross earn
ings. The per cent to be collected IS
8 per cent. The Oriano would not al
wise you in this matter, but would sug-
gest that you ask yourself whether you
think it best to tax these corporations
who do business of this kind to pay on
their goods or not. These companies
usually are not the same companies
that run the regular trains, but are
special concerns organized and doing
this special class of business.
The Oriano would be willing to have
almost anything in railroad laws to go
into effect if we could just get some
roads through central Oregon. 1t will
come, too, but then this has no bear
ing on the law.
Vote "Yes' at 32O, which requires
express companies, telegraph compan-
les and telephone companies to pay an
annual license upon their gross earn
ings. This would undoubtedly increase
the amount of tax that would come TO
the different counties.
The constitutional amendments
should be studied by every man in the
county before election day. They
mean important legislation and they
are of more importance than will be
in a session of the state legislature.
The law allowing laws to be initiated
is a good law, and puts the power in
the hands of the common people but
you should know what you are voting
on or you should not vote at all. II
you don't know what a law means
you have no right 10 jump at eonclu.
sions and vote as the idea strikes you.
Write to the county clerk and ask him
for the law or write the registration
officer in your precinct and get copy.
You can then find out what they are.
Talk TO your neighbors and study them
so that you will know all about these
laws before the election in June comes
on.

MOUNTAIN SHEEP.
They Are Held Sacred by Laws Of
Colorado.

State Game and Fish Commissioner
Jim" Woodard declares that the
mountain sheep in Colorado is in the
same class as the sacred bull of India
It must not be touched, says Woodard.
II the animal is seen browsing upon
the mountain side the gun of the hun
ter must not be pointed in its direction
The animal therefore may be called
are not many of them left, but under
the protection of the law they are in
creasing every year. There is band
of them on the hills between Florence
and Victor and Mr.. Woodard has pho
tograph of bunch grazing on a hill
side a short distance from Florence
But for the passage of law which
heavily fines those who kill this anil
NAL the species would have been ex-
tinct long ago.
A letter received in Mr.. Woodard' 8
Office recently tells of the arrest and
conviction of one Fred Klantzsky for
killing a mountain sheep. Klantzsky
was fined $500 and costs in the county
court at Canon City last Saturday The
costs amounted to S140, and II the ac-
cused man does not settle he will have
long term to serve in the county Jail.
The state game and fish commissioner
is authority for the statement that
Klantzsky is an old offender, having
been arrested before for killing noun
tain sheep. 1t seems that Klantzsky
shoots the animals for profit and not
for pleasure, and that on one occasion
he received $50 for the head of one Of
the sheep.
"Klantzsky is an old hermit" said
Mr. Woodard yesterday, "and he sent
out word that any game warden that
got him would have to get him dead.
Game Warden w. F. Givens got on his
trail and followed him into an aban.
doned miners tunnel, where he had
taken refuge and gone to sleep. When
the old man woke up he was looking
into the muzzle of a AS and he made
little resistance, though he tried at first
to reach for his gun."-Denver Repub.
