HIS NAME WON'T GO
ON HIS TOMBSTONE

Los Angeles, Cal, Sept. 2-Count
August Schoffelysky de Mukadel de
Castelane seymore, of Germany, who
for tin last week has been earning a
living by acting as a male model
for gentlemen's clothes in a down
town store, was thrown from horse
today and fatally injured. The count
came to Los Angeles from San Fran
cisco a week ago. He had been in
this country for some time before
seeking employment.
Count de Castelane Seymore was
riding a spirited animal on Figuerra
street when the animal shied at a
passing automobile, throing its rider
against the eurbing with great force.
Physicians say the injured man can
live only a few hours.

ENGINEER SMASHED ROBBER
CONTINUED from Page ~

suddenly lodged under the express
car. The bandit on guard turned nd
fired at him. AS he did so Engineer
Stewart picked up rock and brought
it down upon the robbers head with
crushing force. The bandit toppled
over and in an instant Stewart had
wrenched his revolver from him and
opened fire on the other two masked
men.
The fire was returned and a fusil-
lade sent shower of bullets in
Stewards direction. The engineer
fell with bullet in his leg but con-
tinued firing until his revolver was
empty
At this juncture some of the train
men and a few passengers who had
procured weapons began a flank at
tack upon the highwaymen, who, see
ing their plan had failed, fled. They
continued firing until out of sight.
When the excitement had abated
somewhat it was found that a tramp
who was stealing a ride had been
struck by bullet and seriously
wounded.
Stewart was carried to his engine
and after the precaution of searching
for hidden explosives or loose rails
had been taken, the wounded en-
gineer started the train for Divide.
About four miles from the scene of
the attempted robbery the came up
on train No. A, which brought the
news to Colorado Springs
The engineer and the wounded
tramp were taken to local hospital,
Sheriffs and deputies in automobiles
and on horse back set out for the
scene soon afterward and descrip-
tions of the bandits were sent
throughout the mountain country,
where it is believed the robbers have
gone into hiding.
Although scores of persons, includ-
ing railroad detectives, viewed the
body of the dead bandit, which was
also brought to this city, none could
identify him. The robbers left no
clew and their faces were so effectu-
ally masked that it is possible they
may escape recognition.

WHY
HE WAS NOT
APPOINTED
SENATOR AIULKEY CHARGES
ACTING GOVERNOR BOWER
MAN WITH TURNING HIM
DOWN BECAUSE HE HOLDS
PINCHOT'S VIEWS.

Portland, Ore, Sept. State
Senator Frederick Mulkey today
charges that Acting Governor Jay
Bowerman of Oregon had refused to
appoint him a delegate to the St.
Paul conservation congress because
Mulkey favors the Pinchot policies
of conservation and is opposed to
state control of the national forests.
He said
Governor Bowerman knew that
I believe in Pinchot policies of con-
servation and on this account he re-
fused to appoint me delegate TO
the st. Paul congress after my name
had been recommended by the State
Conservation association.
He knew 1 would go to the con-
gress opposed to state rather than
federal control of national forests
and water power sites, because l be-
iieve the state incompetent. He
knew 1 would be opposed to throw
ing open our forest lands so that the
railroads. could scrip it all. There
fore, accordingly Governor Bower
man refused to appoint me. Conse-
quently my appointment was made
by the oregon Conservation associa-
ton, because the real conservation
lists of this state believe in the things
for which 1 stand and want such
representation there.
"The railroads will try to manip-
ulate the st. Paul conservation con-
gress. 1t is to their interests to for
ward the plan proposed by BallingeE
while in Portland, namely that the
states should be allowed to control
and to reap the benefits of the for
est lands within their borders. IT
is to the interest of the railroads and
of the Ballinger crowd to secure
such a change of control. l will
say why.
"The national government is now
expending about $250,000 in pro-
tecting the forests of oregon. The
state is appropriating the niggardly
sum of $3.50 a year for the same
purpose.
1.-THE money expended for protec-
tion Of Oregon forests by the gov
ernment comes from revenues paid
by the people East of the Mississippi
There is a creed, long and well es-
tablished that the national resources
belong to the people of the whole
nation. For this reason the peopis
of the whole nation have been pay
ing for their upkeep; now they
should reap their benefits The peo-
pie of Oregon will not lose but gain
by keeping the control of the for
ests in the national government.
'It is reported by mendaciou'
persons that the Pinchot policies OF
conservation mean withdrawal of al
national lands from use. This is ab'
solutely false. Pinchot stands foI
opening the agricultural lands tc
bona fide settlers. He believes in
selling the ripened trees of our ma
tional forests and letting the people
get the benefit of the sales. He
does not believe in wholesale de-
struction of our forests such as
would inevitably follow should the
railroads and the corporations gel
their contemplated hold on them y
