Hanley built 'up a big home
ranch. Hanley went into politics,
not as a candidate, but as a War
wick, as the man who made may
ors and sheriffs and recorders and
assessors, and as the friend of
United States senators.
One afternoon Pete French was
shot. Pete French was of the older
order of cattle kings, an order that
toted a gun and that made bad
men stand around. Pete French
had a row with a neighbor, with
the result that the neighbor filled
French fairly full of shot. French
dide, but his slayer was not pun
ished.
French had wide acres and many
herds. He was friendly with that
king of cattlemen, Lux of Califor-
mia. Lux had Hanley appointed
administrator of the French estate.
The estate included the "P" ranch
and the 90" property. magnifi-
cent kingdoms at the head of Lake
Malheur, where winter grazing was
always good and where grass grew
abundantly.
French had hired COW punchers
at $50 month and each COW
puncher became a homesteader on
handy quarter section adjoining
the French ranch, or range. Then
the puncher, when he had secured
title from the government, turned
over this homestead to his en-
ployer and received enough money
to stay drunk whole week in
Burns.

TON.

Just where the saloon vote lies in
the present campaign is a question
which has been asked pretty gener-
ally and the answer is plain to
those who have taken the trouble
to investigate. although the Royal
Arch and the Independent saloon
men are keeping it QUIET and max
ing no great fuss about it. J. T..
ONO, former city commissioner,
has practically the undivided sup
port of the saloon element.
ONO has been active and hts
work has taken him among every
class of men. He is making a per-
sonal canvass and has put in a.
great deal of his time in the First
ward. His headquarters have been
opened at SO7h Riverside avenue,
where he will organize his forces at
once to combat with the Fassett,
Hutchinson and Hinkle forces in
the race.
The effort to swing the saloon
and liberal strength to Fassett is
what is playing cat and banjo with
the Federated clubs. The clubs are
largely church organizations and
they naturally refuse to be ANAL
gamated with the other line-as
soon as they see what is happen
ing.

NO CHANCE TO PREDICT
THAT TAFT BLIZZARD

Chief Moore of the United States
weather bureau at Washington, D.
c., has been abused shamefully and
lampooned the country over for
that Taft Inauguration blizzard.
The weather bureau had forecasted
fair weather for March 4. CHIEF
Moore has stood it as long as he
could, but finally in defense OF
science he issues the following en-
PLANTATION of how It happened:
I'm the case of the storm that
visited Washington on March 4, the
fact is that the disturbance began
here on the morning of the Sd, and
was accurately forecast the day be-
fore. The bureau anticipated that
the storm center would pass over
the middle Atlantic states during
the night of the Sd, and that north
west winds and falling tempera'
lures would leave clear day for
the Ath. The center past precisely
as forecast, the wind shifted and
the temperature fell, but instead of
the northwest wind clearing the
sky as 1t does in nearly all cases,
precipitation in the form of snow
occurred and continue for IL hours
after the storm cetner had past
eastward. No forecastsr could fore
see this.

States weather bureau are the
equal. If not the superiors. of any
others In the world, and their pre-
