winter wheat, raised in this country.

"GOT OFF WRONG FOOT"
Fulton Classcd AS u Rcactionary and
Encouragcr of Anarchy.

The fact that cattle and sheep men
viii pay more for range privileges H.
the mountains now in private con-
troll than is asked by the govern
ment's forest reserve service, which
is exercising healthy control over
the warning elements, and howl like
hyneas because they have to pay
anything to Uncle Sam, should have
caused Senator Fulton, putting it
moderately and modestly, to have
been little more circumspect, is the
opinion of the Blue Mountain Amer
lean. But, he has shot his wad,
and the explosion will prove reac-
tionary or we miss our guess.
The ranges should be under con-
troll and their policing by a corps of
rangers certainly means much to-
ward doing away with the wars that
have disgraced eastern Oregon hills
in which human life was no more
to some of the bullet-headed hire
!ings of the cattle barons than the
hulls-eye at a shooting gallery tar
get. The fact that the strong arm
of federal authority might get them
iabS utleIIcu tneSe fellows since the
statutes and the forest reserve ad-
ministration forces have been in the
field. This IL one instance wherein
the ethical rights are going to worst
the spirit of commercialism. This
spirit has heretofore grabbed every
thing in sight and known only the
law of might.
On rage three of this issue we re-
puf lish the writings of a Prineville
man anent the matter. The stock
men ana the fool friends of Fulton.
who take the umbrage at any criti
cism of him, for purely political rea-
sons, who may have been misled by
his rather anarchistes letter, will be
wise TO read and digest the contri-
button, because it may save them
much trouble. They should also
hear in mind that the test cases thus
far geetting into the tribunals of the
land have sustained the reserve Of
ficia's and the law creating them. II
may he characterized as court-made
law, but that is decidedly stronger in
its operation than senatorial fulmi-
nations of which Fulton was guilty.

Evelyn Said Thaw Mistreated Her.

London, March 11.-An unofficial
statement from the American embassy
gives what is claimed to be the real
facts concerning the connection Of
Craig Wadsworth with Mrs. Holman
during their visit to London in 1903.
It is declared that Mrs. Holman was
left without funds while Thaw and
Evelyn toured Europe. Wadsworth
allowed the attack of the society pa
per, The Throne, on Wadsworth to go
unnoticed officially.
Today's statement is expected to set
Wadsworth right. The statement says
Thaw, Evelyn and Holman say much
viously known in New York.
At lunch one day Evelyn told Wads-
worth that Thaw had been mistreat-
ing her Immediately the couple
went to Paris saying they would re-
turn in a fortnight. They left Mrs.
Holman at Claridge's without funds,
but in expensive apartments. She ap-
pealed to Wadsworth, who suggested
she remain until Thaw's return. Wads-
worth suggested that Mrs. Holman
appeal to the American society for
assistance. She did. The society Of
fered to send her home second-class,
but she refused. Mrs. Holman, then
Mrs. Nesbit, got Wadsworth to wire
her fiancee ]. c. Holman, who cabled
instructions to do all he could for Mrs.
Nesbit.

INDIAN REPORTED AS KILLED.
No Confirmation Can BE Learned
From Any Source.

That an Indian was killed on the
railroad track two miles east of Cay
use station was reported here yester-
day afternoon. Accordingly Coroner
Ralph Folsom left for the scene on
the switch engine from the local yard.
But on arriving at the place where
the accident was supposed to have
occurred no dead Indian could be
found.
A Jap section hand was the only
man to be found and he was poor
information bureau because he was
unable to speak English. However,
by sign talk the Jap told the party
that some Indians had come to the
spot and carried away the body Of
their dead tribesman. Not caring to
investigate further at that time, the
coroner then returned to town.
When communicated with by phone
at the agency this afternoon Agent
o. C. Edwards declared nothing
whatever regarding the killing had
been reported to him. Consequently
It is impossible to tell at this time
how much credence should be given
the story, If any.

New York, March 11.-Frederick
w. Longfellow, a former counsel for
Thaw, will be called by Jerome as
the first witness in rebuttal.
Like the beginning of new trial,
At the opening of the eighth week
this morning everyone was alert and
anxious to see the cards Jerome has.
Everyone expects a surprise.
Thaw showed signs of anxiety. The
court room was crowded and the
corridors thronged.
Frederick W. Longfellow was the
first witness. Two or three new
faces inside the railing are said to be
those of new alienists. Jerome has
revealed his intention of overthrow
ing Thaw's insanity defense.
beginning the examination of
Longfellow, he questioned the wit
ness about the suit Ethel Thomas be-
gan against Thaw in 1902, alleging
that he had whipped her. This was
suit brought by Hummel, but never
pressed.
Delmas challenged a question by
showed his hand. lie argued that he
proposed 70 show the tales that Eve
lyn told Thaw of other girls being
ruined by White and his friends
could not have upset his mind be-
cause he had known of the cases re-
cited by Evelyn before he ever heard
her own story.
hn oh
that Thaw secured this information
from lawsuits. Evelyn's story told
to Thaw, Jerome declared, could not
have caused the brain storm"
which led to Whites death.
Jerome went into details in his ar
gument, getting before the jury facts
he could not have brought out on
the stand.
Delmas fought hard, insisting il
was an effort to contradict Evelyn's
testimony of what she had told Thaw
and therefore was inadmissable. The
storm was precipitated by a seeming
ly little question. ''ln the suit
brought by Ethel Thomas We're pa
ro"s served on Thaw?"
Delmas read from the records of
the case, when the court had ruled
that the truth or falsity of Evelyns
story was not at issue: that it could
be considered only as to its effect
upon the mind of the defendant.
The records showed Delmas at that
time said he was perfectly willing
to state should go into the truth of
the story. "And now you object"
said Jerome.
Delmas read from his statement
that 1t was the law that prevented
him going into the case; that he had
to try tho case according to law.

San Francisco, March 11.-Ruef
had a day in three courts today, and
before the days legal skirmish is over
1t is not unlikely his attorneys will
have gone into another court for aid
In securing the release of their client
and further blocking his trial on the
charge of extortion.
The days battle began in Dunn's
court. AS early as a vast crowd
gathered in and about the court room
and at the hour set for bringing Ruef
before Dunno the court room was
packed. it being impossible to comply
with the courts orders to close the
doors and prevent any more entering
the room.
A few minutes after 10, Ruef, in
custody with Elisor Biggy and three
deputies, pushed his way through the
mob and proceeded Immediately to
the seat set aside for him. The
"curly boss wore a smile and SEEM
ed to be bubbling over with good hui
NOR. He hailed the newspaper men,
saying, "If it was not for me you fell
lows would have been fired long ago."
Heney began proceedings by NOV
ing that the writ of error to the SUI
preme court Of the United States,
granted by Judge Hebbard, be quash-
ed on the ground of lack of juris-
diction. Heney contended the writ
had been secured by trickery.
Attorneys for the defense opposed
the motion, contending that as long
as the matter is before the supreme
court of California on a petition for a
writ Of prohibition, that Dunno had
no jurisdiction.

Louisville, March 1.-THE street
car strike is assuming serious pro-
portions. only three lines are now
running. The strikers are persuad-

The company says the strikers
threaten to use dynamite.
The Street Railway company an
nounces the suspension of all service
with the following statement
THE city is in the hands of a mob.
The railway company has enough men
to run the cars, but there is no police
protection, and the lives of the loyal
men and passengers are in danger.
Therefore no effort will be made to
run cars until rioting is suppressed.
1t is rumored the company may put
armed Pinkertons on the cars tomor-
row.
