to stealing one hog, while the other
men are charged In an Information
sworn out yesterday by G. Hagen with
the theft Of the hog he lost.
The Fourth Attempt.
It will be recalled that in the former
thefts, the clue was left by the club
footed, blind and decrepit horse used
by the thieves and the bloody stains
on the buggy. The thieves had also
their own peculiar way of doing the
work, and this was featured by the
unique plan Of action shown In all
cases but that of last night The hog
would be stuck with a knife while in
the pen or sly of the owner, then
rolled over or under the fence, and
carted away to be butchered. The
butchering might be at the home OF the
thieves or some convenient place else
where AS might be expected this led
to the arrest of the first two captured,
Al and Emmett Burton on West Me-
chanic street. and subsequently after
some little sleuthing by the sheriff S

The rounding up of last nights rob

covery, but the thieves scented his
coming and reached their buggy, rid
ing to safety for the time being. G..
Krun1bolt living in the same vicinity,
saw the horse and buggy Of the two
men on Asbury avenue headed toward
the Blaclhawk bridge, having been
from the Van Wrinkle place. He did not
feel equal to the occasion singly OF
taking the two men and before he
could secure aid the men had flown.
The hog lot on the Van Wrinkle place
showed a fine hog knocked in the head
with a sledge or some such tool and
was quite dead when found. Its squeal
upon being hit. however, caused Cum
Gift to awaken and led to the escape of
the thieves.

Thus far the love for pork I'M
purchased has led to visit to three
places in that section of the county
which is almost in the city limits, and
three hogs have been slaughtered ard
carted off, but last night the attempt
was failure. Mr.. Van Wrinkle is two
hogs poorer than three weeks ago.
while G. Hagan and T. P. Box have
doubt as to the fixing of the guilt in
the killing of the first three hogs and
the attitude of the Burton brothers to-
ward the sheriff since the capture of
the Gaylors has been that of contempt
and the feeling of safety from convic-
ton on the charge of larceny.

sent into oblivion a large number of
other bills passed by the legislature.
Unconstitutional, Says Governor.
In his veto message dealing with
the Rusk bill, the governor says:
1T seeks to deprive the voter of his
constitutional right to vote for one
person for nomination under the title
to every Office where more than
twice as many persons of one politi-
cal party are candidates for nomina-
tion in one political office division as
there are positions to be filled there
in,' unless he also expresses a second
choice among said candidates. He
may not have a second choice, and
the legislature cannot, under the con-
stitution, compel him to name a sec
ond choice under penalty of losing
his constitutional right to vote for
the nomination of one person.

That the city of Portland will be

tion was eliminated

This bill was one Of those recon-
mended by the Oregon Development

not the intention to ask for any ap-
preparation. The plan was to have

ton and the measure was desired
passed solely because It would give
