Evidence Of Incendiarism.
Positive evidence that many Of the for
est fires In Oregon are OF incendiary
origin has been discovered by government
agents, according to a telegram received
at the offices Of the forest service today
from Associate District Forester Cecil Of
Portland.
Mr. Cecil says in his dispatch that there
is no doubt that the fires in the Crater
national forest and at Medford resulted
from incendiarism and that new fires are
being set constantly. He reports that he
has started twenty-five men on scout
duty in an effort to catch the culprits.
Mr.. Potter laid before the army officials
his latest information from the fire re-
gions. His advices were that high winds
prevailed Sunday, which resulted In many
disastrous fires. At Wallace, Idaho, one
quarter Of the area Of the town had been
burned: Newport: Wash. was said to be
in grave danger and each town asking for
30 troops.

Twenty-Five fire fighters have been kill

Mr. Potter was inclined to believe that
these had all been in the employ Of the

only the loss Of two men at Wallace,
Idaho. Fires we're reported to be racing

LITTLE SMUDGERS LOSE.

Yesterday the Little Smudgers
went down to defeat before the Pali-
sade Huskies, after a valiant fight
and turn for the worse of baseball
luck in the 9th inning.
The victory was the story of q
game won in the 9Th. When the ia
tai inning opened the Little Smudg-
ers had the game apparently cinched
by the score of ? to /. For eight in
nings the locals had played with the
score at l. to 0 against them; and.
when they finally succeeded in get
ting two markers in the Sth, after
having played almost errorless bali.
II was taken for granted that they
could shut out Palisade at least one
more inning; but here is where the
luck interfered. Calderwood' was
walked; Carnahan weakened, and
three men in succession bingled, and
the game was over with the score at
) to in favor of Palisade.
1t was good game; and. although
1t was not witnessed by a very large
crowd, the fans who were there saw
some good ball and had only words
of praise for the plucky fight put up
by the local boys.
Palisade Will again try to frighten
Montrose into meeting them: but, II
they steadfastly refuse. will claim
