An Elusive Prisoner.

Matthew Kizer, noted for his burg
larry and jail burning escapades In
Long Creek. still upholds his title to
the championship Of modern "Artful
Dodger." After having pleaded guilty
to larceny from store and being
sentenced to a two-year term in the
pen, he slipped out almost from un-
der the very eyes OF the sheriff Sum
day evening and made grand play
for getaway
He was bringing in wood when he
darted away In the gathering twilight
and hid in the haydn of p. f. Chand-
lers barn. A general search was in
progress when T. ]. Cozad called at
tentlon to the barn. Mulcare and
Sheriff Ambrose entered the barn
and began the search, when the lit
tie stowaway was discovered under
a pile OF hay. He was taken into GUS
tody and the next morning Sheriff
Ambrose started for Salem with him.

AFTER ARGENTINE TRADE.
Germany Landing Big Percentage OF
South American Commerce.

South American Commerce.
Buenos Ayres. Argentina, Dec. 2S.
THAT the United States is not taxi
ing proper precautions to protect its
commerce and trade with South AM
erica and especially with the rich
republic of Argentina is the declara-
ton of practically all the American
residents of Buenos Ayres, who have
become alarmed by the recent action
OF congress in granting a subvention
Of $4,000 gold annually to a German
syndicate for promoting commerce
between Germany and Argentina. AL
ready Germany has a strong hold on
the Argentine trade and threatens
soon to supplant both Great Britain
and the United States With proper
effort, it is admitted by all that the
United States might supply this
country with its millions of dollars
worth of machinery agricultural i'm
plements and other importations,
which now come principally from
Europe.
The total value of merchandise i'm
ported during the year will be near
ly $275, 100000 gold. OF this total,
Great Britain has supplied about 95
per cent, the United States Is per
cent, Germany IA per cent, France
10 per cent, Italy 9 per cent, and
Belgium, Spain and Brazil smaller
proportions. Germany has made a
larger gain in the percentage of ex-
ports to Argentina than any other
country, as has been the case for
many years, and, in the value of i'm
ports from Argentina, stands next to
Great Britain. With the adoption Of
modern methods in agriculture, Ar
gentina will soon become one of the
greatest pastoral countries of the
world and the amount of its imports
will steadily rise in volume. Euro
pean manufacturers understand this
and are making strenuous efforts to
obtain a portion of this rich trade
while the United States is doing prac-
tically nothing and barely holding its
own against the onslaughts Of the
English and German commercial in
vaders.

The police have refused to return
the money, and as they also hold the
tickets and all the other parapher-
MALTA used in the lottery games, 1t Is
probable that a suit fill be instituted
in behalf of the state to confiscate
the money
Not only may this raid result In
fattening the state treasury, but 1t Is
believed by the police that they have
administered the death blow to Chi
nese gambling in Portland. 1t is as
serted that Bing Kee, who was arrest
ed and released on bail, is the real
boss gambler among the orientals of
Portland.
OF all the games carried on In de-
fiance Of law and secretly patron
lied by thousands, 1t is said that Bing
Kee is the hacker. If he can be con-
victed and the $4,000 forfeited, the
police say that no one else will have
the temerlty to advance money to
carry on the games for a long time
to come.

al ldEgists from selling alcohol in
wholesale quantities to regular licens-
cd retail druggists or to public or
charity hospitals, or to medical or
pharmaceutical colleges. Neither
does the bill prohibit the sale by
druggists of wood or denatured alco-
hcl for artistic, scientific or mechan-
ical purposes, or grain alcohol for
acieriologists who are actually en-
gagged in that class of work for sclen-
tiflc purposes only
Under the provisions of the law,
prescriptions for alcohol must be
filled upon the day In which they
are dated or on the following day
Within 10 days afterward the drug
gist is required to file the prescrip-
tions with the ordinary of the county,
who will make a public record Of
them, open to inspection by anyone
at any time. No drugsis: who is al
so a practicing physician will be al
lowed to fill his own prescriptions
for alcohol, nor shall they be filled
at any drug store in which the ply
sician Is financially interested No
prescription may be re-filled, nor any
more than one pint of alcohol be sold
on any one prescription. The deliv-
cry OF alcohol under prescription may
be made only directly to the person
for whom It is issued or to the ply
sician, or in case Of minor, to the
parent or guardian, or in case of a
married woman, to her husband.
These provisions are expected to pre-
vent the sale of alcohol or any bev-
erage containing alcohol lin large
quantities, by druggists, a business
which has been carried on largely in
Maine, Kansas and other prohibition
states.
A feature of the law which has
caused protests from the religious and
reform element which was largely re-
sponsible for securing the passage of
the bill makes it unlawful to admin
lister wine at the communion table.
This protest Is as follows:
after January 1, 1908, every min
lister who hands sacramental wine to
his members will subject himself to
as many indictments as there are
members. Every deacon will also be
subject to similar prosecution. we
petition the general assembly to make
such amendments to the law as will
allow the Christian people Of the
state to worship God according to the
dictates of their own conscience"

n. Il. Cuts Off Trains.

It Is reported that 15 freight train
crews on the Pacific division Of the
Northern Pacific have been laid off.
on Tuesday the railroad reduced its
train service by dlscontinuing eight
passenger trains on the Pacific d.
vision. says the Yakima Republic.
All trains so discontinued with one
exception were doing but a small To-
cal business over short runs. Their
crews will go back to freight train
service. Following are the discon-
tinuances:
Train No. IS. leaving Tacoma at
1855 a. M, known as the Kanaskat
aocommodtion train. has been taken
off and the train running opposite is
also discontinued. The Puget Sound
Limited, running between Portland
and Seattle and known as Nos. 13 and
II have been pulled off. The Grays
Harbor express, Nos. and 10, have
also been discontinued. Nos. 80 and
40, passenger trains on the South
Bend branch, have been taken off.

KNOWS HOW TO FARM.
Produces More Than He Paid for the
Farm In One Year.

Farm In One Year.
r. w. Dougherty, who lives about
a mile west of this city, is one of our
most successful and up-to-date farm
ers, says the Freewater Times. He
has Is acres of land in cultivation and
this year the gross cash receipts
amounted to $2,S67.2O besides a large
quantity of potatoes and fruit yet un-
sold, which will bring the cash re-
turns up near the $4,000 mark and
still have an ample supply of vege-
tables and fruit left for home con-
sumption.
Mr.. Dougherty bought this small
tract of land four years ago, paying
$3S00 for it. These facts will enable
the intending buyers who come here
and find land selling from $500 to
$1,000 per acre to understand that
property that will in one year pro-
duce almost as much as the first cost
of the land. is cheap rather than
dear.
Mr.. Dougherty's success is parallel
by scores of other farmers in the
valley and nearly every week columns
of the Times contains some account
of the success of our Intelligent farm
ers and this paper never overlooks
an opportunity to boost for Freewater
and the Walla Walla valley farmers,
who in turn are all our fast friends.

GE0RG|A'S NEW PROHIBITION LAW AND
ITS PROVISIONS

Atlanta, Ga, Dec SO.-Only one
day more remains before Georgia will
become on arid desert, with never an
oasis in which the thirsty Cracker
may relieve his thirst from the flow
ing bowl. The state prohibition law
will go into effect when the church
bells ring in the new year. Mean
while, convivial ones are endeavoring
to save the saloonkeepers from loss
by making a brave attempt to dispose
of all the wet goods in sight, and II
Is likely that 1908 will he welcomed
by thousands OF Georgians in a con-
dition popularity described as "sous-
ed" Already the last great debauch
has commenced and will continue
without intermission until the saloons
close their doors for the last time to-
morrow night
Present indications are that prac-
tically all the liquor dealers will OBJ
serve the provisions Of the law to the
letter and will not attempt to con-
tinue in business after tomorrow.
Nearly all OF them have succeeded in
disposing Of their stocks and only
odds and ends of wet goods are now
left to satisfy the demands of the
thirsty.
That the state will be thoroughly
dry, however, is evidenced by a num-
Der of mysterious barrels and cases
received at freight offices all over
the state of late, and which bear wit
ness to the activity of the liquor job
bers and dlstillers of other states, who
have recently flooded Georgia with
their advertising literature, offering
whiskey direct to consumers.
The senate bill prohibiting the
manufacture or sale Of alcoholic bev-
erages in Georgia after January l.
1908, was passed by the lower house
by a vote OF 139 to 39 on July 30 last,
and was signed by Governor Hoke
Smith on August G. The signing or
the measure was the occasion of a
great demonstration by the religious
people of the state. who thronged the
capitol, singing praise God From
Whom All Blessings Flow"
The prohibition bills number was
23. The measure was originally
known as senate bill No. 1. 1t was
the 23d bill to reach the governor
for approval, however, and he gave
It the "skldoo" number which was
very significant, from the standpoint
OF the liquor dealers, BY signing the
bill Governor Smith deprived himself
OF a handsome income from the bar
of the Piedmont hotel.
The bill will cause a loss of reye-
nue., state and municipal, of more
than $1,OOO,0OO year. Under Its
terms no whlskey, wine, beer, or In
fact, anything that will cause intox-
cation. can be legally sold in Georgia
after tomorrow. Provision is made
whereby licensed druggists may sell
pure alcohol for medical purposes
only upon the written prescription OF
q regularly practlcing physician and
under conditions closely specified.
Nothing in the act, however, can
be construed as to prevent wholesale

the Idaho state penitentiary under
Warden Arney, was shot and killed
last Tuesday near Goldfield, says the
Boise Capital News. The Goldfield
Tribune of Wednesday gives the fol-
lowing account of the tragedy:
Hugh Fulton was shot and almost
instantly killed in a fight at Silver
Bow yesterday morning. Ed John
son was the man who sent him over
the range. Meager details Of the oc-
currence that caused the tragedy only
were In evidence last nighS; but
from those strlngers 1t appears that 1t
occurred over some claim jumping
in which the participants of the af-
fair took opposite views. Johnson
was armed with a rifle, when he met
Fulton and warned him not to pull
his gun. When Fulton reached for
it the rifle cracked twice, and 40
minutes later Fulton had breathed his
last.

SHOT DEER, LOST JOB.

Forest Ranger Killed Animal. Hid
Carcass in River, But Is Convict
cd.
Compelled to pay fine of $50 and
costs, to surrender his position as
chief ranger in the forest reserve,
and be mustered out without honors,
was the fate of E. NJ. Clarke, who
was found guilty of killing a deer out
of season, says a Lewiston item.
Clarke was tried at Sites last
week before Justice Roberts, on a
complaint filed by Game Warden
Harbaugh. The forest reserve rang
er, who secured his position after a
civil service examination, was found
guilty of killing a deer on July Z
last, and then hiding its carcass in
the Salmon river
Mr.. Harbaugh has been working on
this case for several months, the first
information being given by an In
dian who complained because the
Indians were prosecuted for game
violations, while the whites were al
lowed to go free.
The Indian told his story in court
He and Clarke were riding along a
trail in the Bitter Root reserve when
a large-eyed fawn crossed the trail
followed closely by the mother
Clarke leveled his rifle and shot the
doe to death, and then threw the
deer in the river, knowing that he
dare not take the animal to the camp
Three days later the carcass floated
down the river, and the Indian was
accused of killing the deer. He nam
ed the man who shot the deer. and
furnished information which resulted
in conviction. .goI
