Wilson Greek Man Missing.
Foul Play Feared by Friends - Last
Heard of Wednesday is Influential.

C. E. Osborn, wealthy capitalist
of Wilson Creek has been missing
from his home since August Sth, and
fears that he may have been the vic
tim of foul play are entertained, says
Mount Vernon dispatch to the Bel
lingham American.
The last person who is known to
have seen Osborn is Cashier Davis of
the Mount Vernon State Bank.
For some time Osborn had had deal
ings in this vicinity. although prior to
his visit August Sth. all of his affairs
had been handled by one of his SONS.
On the day in question he withdrew
from the Bank his entire account, Sc
veral thousand dollars, with the inti-
nation that he was going to Seattle to
transact business and would return
for further business with with Bank.
AS he was known to have been ins
terested viii A. .soper in buying hof1
ses and stock, Davis supposed that Os-
born drew the money for such purpose
and thought nothing of it, especially
as the Wilson Creek banker was ap-
parentIy in the best of health and spi-
rits.
The next heard locally was on We'd
nesday, when messenger from S. A.
Osborn, the son, came to the bank in
quiring for particulars and announcing
the disappearance of Osborn senior.
1t seems that Soper and the two Os
borns had been in Sedro- Woolley sell
ing horses. and that the elder man left
the others to come to Mount Vernon,
saying he would go from here to his
home. That was the last they saw of
him.
Osborn is one of the leading men of
Wilson Greek. His financial interests
are varied and heavy. He has large
mercantile business. is stockholder
in two banks, operates several ranches
and is heavy dealer in cattle. We

Observation-Disclosures
Chief Executives Communication to
Congress Will Be the Longest
Official Document Of its
Kind on Record.

Washington, Dec. IA. When Presi-
dent Roosevelt returns to Washington,
Setember 25, he practically will have
concluded the writing of his message
to the first session of the Sixtieth Con-
gress.
Every portion of it will be in shape
to submit, as is usual, to the members
of his cabinet and to those senators
and representatives and high officers of
the government upon whose judgement
he largely relies for suggestions.
The message is to be the longest
that he has sent to Congress 1t will
be longer than that which he sent to
Congress- winter before last. which es-
tablished a new record in the presi-
detail message line. That was the
output in which railroad rate regul-
alton was made the overshadowing
feature. Rooesvelt's message to Con-
gress in December also will be notable
for the manner in which it will deal
with questions now before the nublic
or in which he hopes to make the
public take an interest. The matters
will be treated in an unusual way with
vigor that will make the message uni
que as state paper.
1t will virtually be statement of
issues upon which the Republican party
will make its fight in 1908.
Roosevelt will demand much legis-,
lation, but he will not expect to get
all he asks for, nor does he wish to
get it. He wants the first session not
to do too much, but to leave good
working margin, so that the issues
that will appeal to the people may
come from the second session next year
and be freshly impressed upon the vo-
tiers shortly before they go to the
ballot box, and previous to that upon
the delegates top the national Repub-
lican conv antion.

casion to meet fully and fairly the
obligations put upon him, and while
we may now be too close to his achie-
vements to value them correctly, the
stature of the man will lengthen as
we recede from the time in which he
has wrought so much for his country's
good.
1t is pleasant to reflect on these
things at time when the distinguished
secretary Of war is guest of Seattle.
1t is pleasant to know, too. that Secre-
tary Taft's achievements are due to his
rigid adherence to the high political
ideals of the nation, and to a willing
acceptance of the basic precepts upon
which the republic is grounded. Men
of shis beliefs of established the ma
tion; men of his type preserved it,
and even now make of it fit home
for high-minded men and noble wo-
men.-P.-I.

A Great Live Stock Show.

Not only will there be more animals
exhibited at the livestock show at the
coming interstate Fair this year than

ciaion.

bitors will be represented this year,
and there will be a number of new
entries. One of the leading herds

of fat steers, while the Pullman
agricultural college will also have a
choice collection on exhibition.
d. H. Looney of Jefferson, Oregon,
the leading breeder of Jerseys in the
United States, will have herd of l6
fine animals on exhibition, and it is
expected that this will be one of the
best herds of Jerseys ever shown in

Secretary Taft.

No other president in the history
of the American republic has been
more fortunate in the selection of men
for the really vital positions in his ca
binet than Theodore Roosevelt. When
John Hays brilliant diplomatic career
closed, Elihu Root was called to the
portfolio of state to continue, unbro-
ken, the noble policies which had
challenged the admiration of keen OBJ
servers everywhere. President Roo
sevelt owes much of his administrative
success. to JohnHay's worthy successor.
He owes much to Wilson, Moody,
Knox, Bonaparte, Cortelyou, Metcalf,
Strauss, and other men who have helped
to sustain and further his policies.
But among all the able men associat=
ed with the president during his ten
ure, it may be doubted whether a man
has occupied more intimate and IN
fluential position thanWilliam Howard
Taft, the present secretary of war, who
will arrive in Seattle today. Indeed
it may be doubted whether any cabinet
officer in the entire history of the re-
public has filled a sphere of broader
usefulness than Secretary Taft. His
achievements loom large in the history
of contemporary events. Tactful to a
high degree, he has COPIED successfully
with situations the most delicate and
the most difficult; and, if he has not
always solved problems assigned to
him, candor will force the confession
that he has vastly improved every sit
uation intrusted to his care and keep
ing.
Whatever success we have achieved
in the Philippines is due to Secreary
Taft, his close study and infinite know
ledge of natives, and admirable tact,
enabling him to do good where other
men would have failed utterly. So,
too, he brought order out of chaos
irCuha. r. Farama he has tee- equally

Following the usual custom, the
Spokane Chamber of commerce will
this year maintain bureau of info
nation for the benefit of visitors to
the Interstate Fair, which is be held
in Spokane from September 90 to Oc-
tober S.

who may not wish to go to hotel can
secure room with private family by
applying to George Dresher, at the
rooms of the Chamber of Commerce,
in the new Hutton building. Mr..
Dresher, who is assistant to Secretary
Monroe of the Chamber of Commerce,
will have charge of the work this year.

application to Mr.. Dresher, who has
already started the work of listing
vacant rooms.
Mr.. Dresher will keep complete list
Of all available rooms, together with
the location and price, and this will
be open to the inspection of all visit
ors who may wish to take advantage
of the work being done by the Cham

New irrigation Scheme near PasCO.

A company composed of Seattle par
ties has been formed for the purpose OF
building plant for irrigating a large
tract of land near Pasco. Thl com
pany announces that it is ready to COM
mence work Immediately upon accept
ance of their terms by the owners of
land to be watered. Their proposition
is that each person owning land under
the proposed bitches deed to the COM
pany one-half their land in exchange
for water rights for the other half,
says the Ellensburg Localizer.
As the land in its present condition
is practically worthless and would if
irrigated be worth from 800 to $500
per acre, it would seem a good pro-
position; yet many of the land owners
are holding back, and the company has
now issued an ultimatum to the effect
that unless the land owners accept
their terms within the next 80 days
the project will be dropped. If the
present scheme falls through it may
be long time before that land is vat

POLLY FINDS NEW HOME.
One Policeman McFeeley Took Home
Didn't Behave-That's Why.

Policeman Frank McFeeley, of the
Second Precinct Station, took a trip to
Electric Park last night, and while
there was awarded a poll parrot. He
is not particularly fond of parrots, but
he took the bird home with him.. The
rest of the family had retired before
the policeman reached home, and so
on his arrival he placed the cage con-
tanning the parrot in the dining-room.
During the night the bird ate its way
out of the cage, and made it's way to
the bedroom of McFeeley's sister. This
morning shortly before Z o'clock Nc
Feeley vas awakened by screams COM
ing from his sisters room, n run-
ming to her assistance found her al
most hysterical and pointing to the
parrot, which was perched on the foot
of the bed. McFeeley took the bird
into custody and returned it to it's cage.
McFeeley's sister does not like par
rots, so the bird goes to Roundsman
Feller. The presentation takes place
tonight, and Feller says that he is
going to put the bird, not in a ''gilded
cage but in a cast iron one.

BLEECKER STREET UPSET.
Assertive Rooster Annoys and Police
Are Asked for Relief.

While Police Captain Brown, of the
Second Precinct station. was serving as a
desk sergeant in the Fourth Precinct Po-
lice station he little knew what was In
store for him when the time arrived for
him to be made 4 captain. He had often
acted in the capacity of acting captain
during Captain Vogel's absence. and in
this way had become acquainted with
some of the strenuous duties of that CT
fee. but he never learned the worst until
he became Il regular captain.
Since assuming charge at the Second
Precinct station Brown has been asked to
do all kinds of things by citizens. and he
has lone his best to accommodate all.
But the worst has happened. Captain
Brown has been requested to stop a roos-
ter from growing. Captain Brown decided
and it did not take him long to make
the d~ecislon-that he would not and could
not make that rooster stop Growing. HI
thinks that ne might just as well ask
the iaen under his command TO stop eat
Ing.
The troublesome rooster has its abode
in Blocker street. \ ~neighbor has written
the captain asking him-not to kill 1t or
have it taken away-but to stop it from
growing. The sender Of the complaint
stated that he understood the police had
full authority In such matters He called
Captain Brown on the telephone this
morning to find out whether he intended
doing anything IN the matter, and the
captain referred him to the Boatd of
Health.

CARROLL'S MEN ARE HOT.
Martyrs to What Captain Considers
Observance of Good Form.

Until Captain Carroll took a hand. yes
terday afternoon, police headquarters. in
the City Hall. was a decided failure from
a sartorial standpoint, and all because the
thermometer saw fit to jump past 81. But
the captain Is not worried over the heat.
Whatever else may worry the genial co1n-
mandant of the bureau. no one can say
that Old Soils rays causes his brow to
wrinkle. So. when he saw that the heat
would be apt TO abolish all efforts at sar-
torial perfection, Carroll Jumped feet first
to the rescue of good form. and set about
to bring headquarters TO its place in the
world Of form and fashion.
Now the order from the bureau com
mandant is that no one must appear in
detective headquarters without his coat on.
Tho order cane about through Special
Detective GaffneY going TO headquarters
without his coat. The eagle eye of the
captain saw the special policeman minus
bis outer garment. and forthwith went into
his sanctum and decided that hereafter
coats must be worn, regardless of the tenn
perature.
It was 81 by the Thermometer when the
captain saw the special policeman waiting
in his shirt sleeves. You'll have TO gu
out of here if YOU persist in staying with
your coat off" said Carroll to Gaffney.

forehead and looked at his superior. whore

$40 FINE FOR OBSTINACY.
saloonkeeper, Warned, but Kept on
Operating monograph.

Tony Lamortie, a saloonkeeper at
"a Seventh avenue, was fined $40 by
Judge Herr in the Second Precinct
Court this morning for persisting in
playing a monograph in his place of
business after he had been repeatedly
warned by Captain Brown. of the Sec
ond Precinct, to stop 1t. Lamortie was
arraigned IN a charge of violating sec
ton 8 of the noise ordinance. He paid
the fine under protest.
q Complaint was made to Captain
Brown on Saturday night, and Ser
geant Jones sent Policemen Mink and
Mimi down to the place to warn the
saloonkeeper to stop the machine.
That was about 10 o'clock. An hour
later the cops claim they went past
the place and the photograph was still
going. When they first notified Lamor-
tie, they say he told them that they
had no right to interfere, and that
If they did he would make a test case
of it.
Captain Brown, hearing of this, de-
cided upon giving the saloonkeeper
an opportunity to test it.

A TRICK OF TRADE
ALLEGED IN COURT lNAREAL
ESTATE TRANSACTION.
Counsel for the Purchaser of Property
Claims That Its Value Wa Misrepre-
scented and Alleges other Chicanery.

What Edward Schoen, counsel for Louis
Kohn, a butcher, of Main street, East
Orange, declares Is a common trick among
certain real estate operators of the Hill
section to bolster up the value Of proper
ties, was set up today as cause for Mr..
Kohn's suit to compel Herman Schwartz,
of IS Broome street, and Alfred Krisses,
of Brooklyn, to reconvey to him the prem
ises at 429 Fifteenth avenue.
Chauncey G. Parker, representing Messrs.
Schwartz and Krisses. denied that his
clients had in any way misrepresented
the value of the property. and declared the
complainant was merely e~ndeavoring to
get out of a bargain clearly set forth in
the contract, which he offered as part
of his answering aff1davits to the rule to
show cause, issued to Kohn last week.
The Court reserved decision.
1t appears tact last April the parties
concerned agreed to an exchange of prop

he was induced to make the exchange or

a 1000 mortgage on the Boyd street prop.

subsequently, he ascertained that the $500
mortgage was loned on the Boyd street
and other parcels belonging to the defend
ant. He thereupon declined to receive the
defendants deeds to the Boyd street tene-
ment. and demanded the reconyeyance of
the Fifteenth avenue house and the return
of his $500.
In reserving decision, Vice-Chancellor
Howell directed counsel to furnish citations
on the question as to necessity of the COM
planant to show actual money damage by
reason of the disputed transaction to war
rant his maintenance of the suit.
