REMARKS OF IMPORTANCE
TO WESTERN OREGON
Open River Free Locks Break Up Land Monopoly and Live Delegation
Walter Lyon talks on Progress.


Car shortage, alien ownership of
land and squeezed by the greedy
transportation corporations, is seri-
Gus enough to blight the prospects
of any community. These are ex-
traneous. But the most serious,
most dlscouraglng of all obstacles
are those which come from within.
That which presages dry rot and de-
cay and that against which all the
powers that be cannot hope to sue
cessfully battle, Is self inertia. The
man. Without aspirations to better
his surroundings, a man has no place
in the march of progress and cannot
be counted among the live forces in
n developing country. He is a draw
back, a drone. That apples can be
grown in the valley that compare
favorably with Hood River and
southern oregon apples; that pears
of superior quality can be grown,
and that II is the home of the cherry,
strawberry. L'oganberry and other ,
small berries has been demonstrated.

Will Begin Services at the Tempo
rnry Tabernacle Tonight.
(From Fridays Daily

Revivalist Jeffries arrived in ANA
rlo yesterday and last night held a
little preliminary service at the tenn
porary tabernacle on Fillmore street.
Last night the gathering was prin-
cipally for prayer service or help
during the meeting.
The preacher declared that he did
not have the courage to fight anyone
going anywhere IN the right direc-
ton, but instead he regarded all who
are doing good as co-workers, and
would only urge more activities on
the line of faith in the promises.
He seemed to be possessed OF the
notion that God has given us a real
ly good world II the people could
only be induced to believe It and act
accordingly, and thereby save a lot
Of trouble, labor and misery.
Rev. Jeffrles is stopping at the
Taylor street flats, whore friends
may find him between hours OF SER
vices. All are invited to be out to
the tabernacle services tonight.

PRAISES AMARILLO PLANS.
Manager Grecnwall OF Fort Worth
Will Assist in Booking Attractions.
(From Fridays Daily.)

(From Fridays Daily)
Manager Greenwall, of the Green
wallis opera house in Fort Worth,
and the virtual head OF the "theat-
rical trust" in Texas was enthusi-
astic In his praise or the plans for
the new Amarillo opera house when
he saw them last week, Manager
Henry Elliott, Of the Amarillo opera
house, has been visiting various cit
les and consulting theater men over
various details Of the plans as pro-
posed for the building. At Fort
Worth he consulted Manager Green.
wall, who in addition to being an
expert on theater building is an au-
thority on the booking of attractions.
The Fort Worth manager was sur
prised and delighted at the scale of
plans for the new house and the de-
tails of the building. 1t would be
a house, he said, that would be a
credit to any city in the state and
few cities could show houses that
would compare fayorably with 1t.
The size of the stage in the plans
for the Amarillo house is larger
than that of his own house in Fort
Worth and the arrangements are
better. He made several valuable
suggestions in some of the details
of the plans but the best Of his in
terest in the Amarillo plans was ex-
pressed in his hearty agreement to
routing good attractions through
here.
What is known as the theatrical
trust" is practically booking agency
which makes the schedules under
which all the big companies make
their circuits every year. These
schedules are made months in ad-
vance and once made cannot be va
ried. But Manager Greenwall says
that Amarillo will get the good COM
panies. The town is big enough. will
have house that will enable them
to put on their productions, and
moreover It is so located that the
companies can save a jump by stop

learned that the train would run
back into Wichita the next evening
so we waited for the men and we're

came in we had several officers near
the station and, as related on the
witness stand, we caught Ellsworth
as he was asking for the grips and
caught Burk in the car on the track.

denied ever having been In Amarillo.
Later he admitted having been here.

BIgamISt Bird Left With Mis-.

Ing 10 Face Charges
(From Fridays DailyO

- ANAA = aANF ANaAAe
In the convention OF wives and
former wives OF Harry d, Bird which
is soon to be held at the courthouse
in Jackson, Cape Girardeau county
Missouri, no Texas girls will have
the prerequisites necessary to repre-
sentatlon in the gathering, Bird
would have probably done his part
toward remedying the deficiency II
the Texas officers had kindly allow
ed him to continue at large here In
single bessedness for a few months
longer. At any rate, In the light OF
the alleged achievements Of Bird in
the way OF matrimonial conquests,
IL speaks much for the force OF char
acter OF Panhandle girls that they
have been able to resist his fasci-
nation as long as they have,
This morning Deputy Sheriff J. Il,
Cotner, deputy sheriff and jailor Of
Cape Girardeau county, Missouri,
left on the morning Rock Island for
Missouri and with him went Harry
d. Bird. From past experience with
the prisoner whom he now has in
charge, the officer is taking every
precaution for safeguarding the man
from escape so there is little posi-
bihty of Birds having another OPP
portunity to write further funny
comments on the work of Texas Of
ficers.
After he escaped last week from
the officers here, Bird was so well
pleased with his own ingenuity and
shrewdness that he wrote a letter
back to Amarillo saying that getting
away from the officers here was
like taking cake from children, The
speed with which the man was re-
covered and brought back here and
the precautions that have been TAX
en- with him since have given him
time for maturer reflection on the
ability of Texas officers and he had
no such comments to make this
morning.
Bird is arrested for higamy on
warrant "by information. He has
one wife in Bessville, Mo-, whom he
married last January and deserted
the same month. He has another
wife across the river in Illinois. In
these two cases the record is COM
plete and both the Missouri deputy
who took Bird away and the Prose-
cutting Attorney Alexander who
wrote to District Attorney Bishop
about the man, say that there are
we'll founded rumors OF more Mrs.
Birds to alleged number of a dozen
or so.
Deputy Cotner, who left with the
man this morning, will have trav-
eled over 1000 miles in getting the
man and taking him back to Mis-
souri,. He went clear to Austin,
Texas to get the requisition papers
and then returned to Missouri when
the man got away from here,
