COUNTRY IS
TERRORIZED
BY DESPERATE
UNITED PRESS LEASED wInE.l


Spokane, Wash, June with a
high-power rife, plenty of ammuni-
ton and a determination to die rath-
er than be captured, William Byrd.
who killed C. H. Whipple, John Man
ski and probably fatally wounded
Justice of the Peace c. w. Meisner,
of Dishman, a Spokane suburb,
Thursday, has succeeded in Guiding
an army of heavily armed searchers
thus far, according to reports this
afternoon.
Byrd is an expert shot, and it is
feared that he may add several more
victims to his list before he is taken.
Byrds trail through the hills
southeast of Spokane was taken up
anew today by Sheriff George Estone
and force of deputies, who are now
following his supposed route into
the Saltese country. 25 miles south
west of here.
Justice Meisner, a member of the
posses, who was shot through the
lungs while pursuing Byrd. following
the murder at D'shpan, continues in
a coma, with little chance of recov-
cry.
CONSERVATION reigns among farm
ers throughout the country about
Spokane, and arms are kept within
reach, in anticipation of visit from
the fugitive at any time.

DISCUSSING
The IDEAS OF
LOUIS BRANDEIS

Boston. Mass, June 9.-Delegates
to the national conference of chari-
ties and corrections today are dis
cussing the ideas of Louis D. Bran
deis, on workmens compensation,
made in an address before their
body.
"A certain per cent Of wage earn
ers inevitably meet illness, accident,
death and lack of employment" said
Brandeis, "and these conditions must
be met with something more definite
than sporadic, emotional charity
The cost of insurance would be
high. Ten per cent of the wages
would go far, yet even such a
charge would afford mere alienation,
and complete indemnity probably
would cost % per cent of the aver
age daily wages. The apparently
prohibitive expense should not deter
us from acting now On the con-
trary, it brings clearly to mind the
enormous waste of social and indus
trial conditions"

PICK POCKET
RETURNED
The CHECK

The thief-whoever he was-who
picked the pockets of G. E. Grinfield,
an employe of the Portland Railway
Light G Power company, last even
ing, while he was standing at the
corner of State and Commercial
streets, evidently did not care to take
chances on cashing the check he
found in the purse and this morning
it was found tucked under the door
of the United States National bank.
The check was drawn by the Port
land Railway, Light & Power COM
pany in favor of Grinfield. 1t was
the only thing of value in the purse.
When he found out that his pockets
had been picked he conferred with
Day Officer Burkhardt and this morn
ing when the officer went to the bank
to stop payment on the check, the Of
ficials told him that they had it, and
that it had been tucked away under
the door.

At last here is instant relief and
a lasting permanent remedy for sore
feet. No more tired feet. No more
aching feet. No more swollen, bad
smelling, sweaty feet. No more
corns. No more bunions. No more
callouses, no matter what ails your
feet or what under the sun you've
tried without getting relief, just use
TIZ.
TIZ is totally unlike anything else
for the purpose you ever heard Of.
It's the only foot remedy ever made

other remedies merely clog up the
pores. TIZ cleanses them out and
keeps them clean 1t works right
off. You will feel better the very
first time its used. Use 1t a week
and you can forget you ever had
sore feet. There is nothing on earth
that can compare with it. TIZ is for
sale at all druggists % cents per
box or direct if you wish from Wal
ter Luther Dodge Co., Chicago, III.

JONATHAN
TALKS SOME
POLITICS
UNITED PRESS 1EAsEp wire. ]

Washington, June y.-Discussing
the reported split in the ranks of the
progressives in the senate today SEN
ator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon de-
livered a near-prophecy and without
mentioning names, outlined method
for telling who would be next presi-
Dental nominee.
"The apparent efforts of some
newspapers to mislead the people by
conveying the idea that there will be
no protest to the denomination of
President Taft is the most asinine
and idiotic piece of politics ever in
dulged in," he said.
Il would suggest to newspaper
editors and representatives that they
PROFOUND these questions to the first
hundred Republicans they happen to
meet.
Who'll be the nominee of the
next Republican national convention,
second, who'll be PRESIDENT then on
the assumption that no convention
ever nominates man whom the del
egates inevitably believe will be de-
feated see what conclusion they'll
come to regarding who will be the
Republican nominee"

/ COLORADO DRAWS ON
OREGON FOR INFORMATION

Attorney-General Griffith, Of Den
yer, Colo, has written Secretary of
State Olcott for forms of the petit
tions used in this state in initiating
laws, and in referring them to the
people, and the secretary is sending
him blank forms today.
In his communication he says that
the state of Colorado at its last cleo
ton, adopted the initiative and ref
erendum laws, and that it is the de-
sire of the people to refer some laws
passed by the last legislature, and to
initiate some legislation. AS the
time limit in which to do this is linn
tied, and the laws passed are pat
termed after those in force in this
state, he desires blank copies of the
petitions used here.

PURCHASING
BOARD HOLDS
FIRST MEETING

The state purchasing board held
its first meeting yesterday afternoon,
and besides mapping out in gem
eral way the policy to be pursued in
purchasing supplies for the state, it
also decided to meet once each week
Monday forenoons-in order to
keep in closer touch with the needs
and wants of the institutions and the
market.
The board when it comes to pur-
chasing staple supplies-such sup
plies as do not fuctuate in the mar
ket-will follow the policy hereto
fore adopted, that of advertising for
bids every six months, and lay in a
supply to last for that period. When
it comes to buying articles of mer-
chandise which fluctuate, however,
the board will only buy such amounts
as are needed at the time, and then
lay in large quantities when the
price is low. Illustrative of this may
be cited the case where one of the
institutions put in an order this time
for $4,000 pounds of prunes. Prunes
are now at the top price, and the
board will not purchase enough to
last for period of six months, but
just enough to last until the prune
crop is on the market and they can
be secured at a fair price.
VIII Raise More Hogs.
Meat is another product which the
board can not buy in quantities to
last for six months-especially dur
ing the summer season as it would
not keep, and it will be obtained
from the bidder from time to time
as it is needed The board intends to
raise poultry and hogs more extern
sively than ever before, and hopes to
bring about a great saving to the
state in this manner.

WILL PAROLE
ANOTHER LOT
IN SHORT TIME

Excepting several men who follow
special trades and cannot pursue com
mon labor, Rev. Bauer, superintend-
ent of the Oregon Prison Aid Associ-
alton has succeeded already in find
ing employment for the 22 or more
convicts who were paroled by the
parole board at its meeting several
weeks ago.
One of the men for whom he has
not yet found labor is a harness max
er. The harness business is rather
dull at present, and that is the rea-
son he has not succeeded in placing
him. He hopes to find employment
for him very soon, and also for one
or two others following their trades.
He states that he has found no diff
Guilty at all in finding common labor
for the convicts. The aid societies
organized by him to cooperate with
the state association has done much
valuable work in assisting him in Sc
curing employment for the paroled
convicts, and will be exceedingly val
liable in the work of seeing to it that
the paroled men are kept in proper
surroundings, and not allowed to
drift back to the old life.
The parole board will meet again
about the middle of the month and
then the balance of the SO applica-
tions for parole will be acted upon.
The members are now investigating
the history of those applying for pa
roles, and it is understood that in
the majority of the cases the rec
ords of the prisoners have been
found to be good. and another large
batch of paroles may be looked for
when the board holds its next meet
ing.

San Francisco, June &C. Freder-
ick Kohl, millionaire clubman, shot
yesterday by Adele Verge, French
maid, who had just lost suit against
him for false arrest, today was rest
ing comfortably at the Adler sanitar-
ium, to which he has been removed.
Although at first believed that his
wound would prove fatal, it was said
by physicians today that he had a
chance for recovery. An X-ray ex-
animation, it was stated, would be
held today if Kohl's condition per-
mitted.
Mrs Kohl, summoned hastily from
her San Mateo home yesterday, has
been constantly with her husband.
Adele Verge today is in a semi
hysterical state. She is wildly ex-
cited, crying and laughing in turn.
In every sentence she asserts she
was bounded from place to place by
Kohl and by detectives whom she
charges he employed, and whose
statements about her made it impos-
sible for her to retain situations.
She was placed under the influence
of opiates last night and at midnight
transferred to the city prison.
Ever since my first trouble with
the Kohls in 1909 when, after the
elder Mrs. Kohl had brought me from

BASEBALL AS
PLAYED AND
SCHEDULED

Inc DaSeDall team OF the Mlldu-
cite University defeated the Indian
team from Cul de Sac, Idaho, yester-
day afternoon on the Willamette
grounds by a score of Is to 2.
st. Pierre, of Willamette, made a
home run. Whip and Henry pitched
for the Indians and Beauchamp
twirled for the local team, while
Benjamin and Steelhammer worked
behind the bat
The Senators will tackle the Uni
versity team on the Willamette
grounds at o'clock Saturday after
noon. The Senators are more ex-
perienced at the game than the var
sity players, but the college boys
have had plenty of practice this year
and the game should be closely con-
tested.
A series Of three games of this
kind will be played on the Willamette
grounds this season. Beauchamp
will pitch for Willamette, and it is
expected that Manager Jerman will
play his clever twirler, Allegaert in
Saturdays game, and also against
the Hubbard team Sunday at the
league grounds here. Jones probably
will do the receiving in both games.
State Treasurer Tom Kay will UNI
pire Saturdays game.
A baseball game that should prove
exciting and interesting is scheduled
for next Sunday on the league
grounds, Twentyffth and State
streets, when Jerman's Senators
meet the Hubbard team for the first
time this season. The Hubbard ag-
gregation has the distinction of be-
ing the only team in the league that
has defeated Woodburn, and the Sa-
lem team is now tied with Woodburn
and Albany for first place.
Manager Jerman, of the senator's,
has had a grader working on the
home grounds all week, and the field
will be in good shape for Sundays
game.
1t is said that Corvallis and Jeffer-
son each will have a team in the
Willamette valley league after next
week This will put the league in the
six-team class.
McElroy's Salem Military band
will give a concert for an hour pre-
ceding the game Sunday. This alone
is worth a trip to the grounds, to say
nothing of witnessing game of ball
between tOp-notch teams.

The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-03-11

Six months ago, there was doubt whether a Republican Governor would reappoint Highway Commissioner Macdonald. criticism of his manage ment being widespread and severe. Now. the question has become wholly political. and the cause of this change is found in the following statement by the Ansonia Sentinel:
 It concerns an office which has come to be looked upon as having political ramifications, reaching well nigh over the greater part of the Commissioner one of the best paid of ficials in the State, but he has the appointment of great many subor- dinates and lieutenants and the awarding of great many valuable contracts. and his influence, therefore in time of poll .tcal necessity is con s1dered of party consequence.
 This is evidently the reason why the Republican managers desire the re- tention of Macdonald-his usefulness as Republican agency. What the people desire. and what Gov. Baldwin will probably endeavor to secure, Is a highway department which shall deal promptly and properly with road mat ters and which shall be wholly divorced from politics. It should not be political agency. whatever the political affiliations of it's head and however great the possibilities of its political use. We believe that Gov Baldwin will act along this line. and that. should the Republican Senate block his way for wholly partisan req sons. that party will "hear something drop" at the first opportunity.
