Chitwood and Simpson Creek.

The sleet storm of two weeks ago
had a telling effect on the timber in
this neck of the woods" We
have been here every since this has
been Lincoln county and several
years before but have never seen
anything like it before, 1t has de.
stroyed thousands of alder and
vine-maple trees and topped large
number of frs and has broken off a
great many limbs. The roads were
all so blockaded that one could
hardly get through them on foot
We have most OF them open now So
one can get through with a team
but there is a lot to be done yet to
repair them. The telephone com.
munication was entirely cut off up
Simpson Greek for several days. and
isn't much better yet, only a few
are connected. 1t will take a lot
OF work to get the telephone re-
paired in good shape,

acts Other Business

At the regular meeting held last
Tuesday evening the annual cleo
tion of officers was held and other
important business was transacted
The attendance was not as large as
it should have been. Every citizen
should consider it his duty to at
tend these meetings and help what
he could to boost the town and
county. Several themes of i'm
portance, to the town and county,
were discussed, among which were
the cruising of the timber by the
county so as to get it on the tax
roll, the dredging of the river be-
tween Elk City and Newport, the
betterment of the county roads, and
several other subjects of Importance.
The Development League is very
much in favor Of having the timber
cruised and are going to do all they
can to see that it is done. They
ask the cooperation of the other
Commercial Clubs of the county,
and that each precinct circulate a
petition to this effect. The Secre-
tary was instructed to remind Con-
gresham c. w. Hawley of his pro-
mise to aid us in having our bay
and river dredged and opened up
to navigation. The following off.
GERS were elected for the ensuing
year:

to make it interesting.

A few days since some dog or
dogs got into j. E. Wilson's flock
OF fine Cotswold sheep and killed a
fine eve. Joe says that is rather
trying on his nerves, after he has
gone to the expense to grade up his
flock so that they are about
thoroughbreds, then have some
worthless cur tear and mangle them
is almost to much to stand.
Subsequently to the above state
ment some hunters were out with
dogs chasing deer, ran through
Wilson's flock and chased them
over into Mr.. Longs field. So
there are several Of us going to see
what we can do to stop this unlawful
conduct. Better stop it boys or it
will not be healthy for you or the
dogs either. Mr.. Cooks goats have
been chased likewise, also Mr..
Trapp's sheep. We are not hunt
ing trouble but we do want our
hocks let alone.
There are some who 60 out hunting
with their dogs on pretence that
they are after bear, when at the
same time their dogs wouldn't run
a bear, cougar or wildcat and the
owner knows it. Still there are
some dogs that are a great benefit
to the country, help to clean out
the varments. 1t makes it bad for
the owners Of good dogs for those
fellows to hunt with those miser-
able ours after deer.

Protest Against Higher Salary
Hon. B. F. JONES, Representative,
Independence, Oregon.

Independence, Oregon.
Dear Strive are the Farmers
Association of Chitwood, Oregon.
In reply to your article in the
county paper in regard to salaries of
county officers. we think that they
are sufficient for the present.
While some of the officers sal
aries, perhaps, should be raised, we
think that the taxpayers should
have more time to consider the
matter.
In 1906 all candidates for office
in our county certified over their
respective signatures that they were
satisfied with present salaries.
We realize that this is delicate
matter and should be considered
from officers and taxpayers point
of view.
We would therefore respectfully
ask you to delay the matter at
present.

Why Cleveland Wasn't in the Civil
 War

The story of why Grover Cleveland did not go to war is told by George F. Parker in McClure's Magazine for February. MT. Cleveland, who had been criticised for his order for the return of the battle flags taken dur ing the civil war, said to MT. Parker:
 See how l am misjudged. It is charged in the press that I had no sympathy with the Union armies. When the war came there were three men of fighting age in our family. We were poor, and mother and sisters depended on us for support. We held a family council and decided that two of us should enlist in the Union army and the third stay home for the sup pirt of the family. We decided it by drawing cuts. The two long and one short pieces of paper were put by mother in the leaves of the old family bible. She held it while we drew. My two brothers drew the long slips and at once enlisted. and I abided by my duty to the helpless women. Later on I was drafted and borrowed thousand dollars to hire a substitute, and it took years of hard work to repay that loan. So of three men of fighting age, our family furnished three recruits for the Union army, and I would have been a monster if I had had no sympathy with that cause for which my brothers were fighting and for which I had sacrificed"

THE MARKET STRONG
 BUT RATHER HEAVY
A Clearing Up Tendency After the
 Late Apprehension.

New York, Feb. 1.-The dull strength of today's market was as cribed in a large part to foreign in fluences and an echo of the rout un- dergone by the bear element in specu- lation on the London stock market. The situation abroad has cleared up materially by political adjustments go- | ing on which removed the weight of the apprehension borne by the finan- cial markets for many months. Some buying here. it was supposed, was prompted by the action of the Cali fornia legislature in reconsidering and defeating the bill to segregate Japan l csc school children. Union Pacific moved up with a usual strong sympathetic effect on the whole list.

A GATHERING UP
 0F FUG|TVEs
Governor kibbey Has Honored Four Acquisitions.

There seems to have been a con- spiracy among criminals in all parts of the country to take refuge in Ari- zona- Four have been apprehended in the north and the south within the last few days, and Governor Kibbey yesterday finished honoring requisi- tions for them.
 Two of the acquisitions came from Governor Chamberlain of Oregon. The first was for Robert Lee Yoakum, who had been arrested and held at Doug las on the request of the Oregon au thOrities, charging him with construc- tive rape. The agent of oregon in this case was Robert Ashworth. who left for Douglas Wednesday night aft CT his man.
 Yesterday another agent from Ore gon applied for papers. His name is T. H. Bulger and the man he is after is D. H. Williams, who is now being held at Lowell. Williams is charged with larceny by embezzlement He was an agent of a mutual benefit as sociation of the United Brotherhood of Leather Workers of Portland and he is charged with having got away with Ol lllC lO 056.35.
 The pursuit of Williams has been very determined. He was followed to London where he was lost sight of. Then he returned to the new world and was next heard of in the City of Mexico. But before he could be defi nitely located he came to Arizona and a few days ago he was arrested at Tombstone. He was removed tlfence to Bisbee for safekeepng, for there was some sort of a demonstration against him by the union men of the former place. MT. Bulger left for the south last night.
 Governor Kibbey also honored a requisition yesterday from Governor Patterson of Tennessee for the return to that state of Alexander Ruberti, who is being held at Globe for fraud. Ru berti has been operating in all parts of the country. He was arrested at Globe for an offense committed there and the local authorities, when they heard that he was wanted elsewhere, were inclined to hold him for the req son that they believed he would get more severe punishment for his crimes here.
 The fourth requisition cane from Governor Sanborn of Louisiana. It re- quested the return of Nelson Woods, wanted for murder committed in the parish of Richland on December IA, 1906. The victim of the murder was a man by the name of Fred Banks. The hunt for Woods has been going on ever since. Not long ago he was ar rested at Prescott and is now in jail there The agent for Louisiana left for Prescott this morning.
