OREGON TO VOTE ON C0ES
TlON OF DEATH PENALTY
Governor West Will Submit the Prop
osition of Abolishing Hanging to
Voters of the State-Beiieves the
Same will Pass.

Salem Dec. 23.-As a sequel to the
recent declaration of Governor West
that he would not permit the legal
execution of any person in this state
during his term of office, comes the
announcement of the governor that he
would see to it that the mater of ex-
ecuting lnurderers convicted in the
first de2ree was submitted to the will
of the people through the initiative an
referendum, which is in vogue in this
state. The governor will abide by the
decision of the people.
Capital punishment is either right
or it is wrong said Governor West
Il believe it wrong, and | believe I
voice tfo sentiment of the majority of
the people Of this state when I sey it
is wrong and should be abolished
When l stated before leaving for the
east that there would be no hangings
in my term Of office, / did so because
l had firm belief that the people of
this state at the first opportunity
would vote to abolish it and it was my
intention, as it is now my intention, to
submit to the voters CT this state
through the initiative a measure abol-
ishing capital punishment,s substitute. &
life Imprisonment, and permitting the
granting of pardons in murder cases
only upon the recommendation of the
supreme court. In the me- ntime death
sentences will not be commuted, but
reprieves will be issued for the purpose
OF postporing execution until after the
people have declared their wishes.
''lf they declare for hanging, their
sentences shall be carried out to the
letter in each case, but l do not fear
such verdict, as l am firm in my be-
lief that the people will abolish this
relic of the dark ages, and that there
will be no more hangings in this state.

Patrons Please Notice
THE cost of all kinds of stock, ma
chincry ard everything used in the
printing business has increased about
forty per cent. in the past five yesrs
and the raise in the price Of printirg
to the customer has not increased
materially. The average business man
knows this and at the same time
knows the price of goods which he
handles has increased grestly. Thus
it is evidert that no printer can do
good, reliable up-to-date work in ad
vertising or job work at the same
price as heretofore.
''We do not believe any fair-minded
business man is adverse to any other
man making a fair profit on his out
put, and this applies to the farmers
the same as other business men.
MANY weekly newspapers have
raised the price OF their subscription
to $3.50 year but we propose to
stick to the old rate of 5000 for those
who pay absolutely in advance,
However no copy Of this paper will
be sent out to subscribers who have
not thus psid in advance, after Jan

delinquent has stated, when asked for
the money that he ordered the rura

word to the office to stop it, or make
some other excuse for not paying
This has been the most prosperous
year in the history Of Southeastern
Idaho and IL a man can't or rather
will not pay $500 for a subscription

Eterd8y morning. The fire. which ori-
ginated from small heating stove

heated took everything, and made
such short work of the small frame
house that the Mannings were unable
to save even their clothing. and the
flames spread SO rapidly that Mrs.
Msnning was unable to save SIS in
paper money that lay in one of the
rooms. The loss is estims ted at about
81 900.
The house was of three rooms, and
is located outside the city limits,
swhere the fire dep srtment is unable
to render service. Mrs. Manning was
alone in the house when the fire start
ed. She had lighted the fire in the
heating stove, which was in the front
part of the house, and had gone into
the kitchen. When she started to re-
turn to the front room she found it en-
veloped in a seething mass of flames.
Before she could even make an effort
to save any OF the furniture the flames
drove her from the house. Mr.. Man
ming carried some insurance on the
house. but none on the furniture. He
says that ne will Immediately rebuild.
Mr.. Manning is well known in Black

tervals for number of years as a
