FOREST PROTECTED.
Keno District Provided With Trails
and Telephones.

Keno, Ore.-That it will be impos-
sible for fire of any consequence to
occur in the western part of this
county this season, is the statement
made by Supervising Fire Warden
Harry Pearson, who is in charge of
the fire protection in this end of the
county for the klamath and Lake
County Fire Association.
1T will be practically impossible
for fire to get away from us this
year. A telephone line has been COM
pleted from Spencer over Buck noun
tain to Parker station. This makes
line from Pokegama to Courtrades
in the Aspen Lake country, 80 miles
in all. All fire breaks and trails
throughout that section are in good
shape, there being some 40 miles of
these, and with the fire fighters scat
tered throughout the most dangerous
sections in close touch with all sta
tions by phone, fire can be easily
extinguished before it gets started
very far.
"Six sections of land where slash
jngs were left some years ago by the
log cutters in connection with the
Finley & Cook Co. sawmill have been
burned over This is at Klamathon,
near Hornbrook! and eliminates pos
sible fires there"

MAYOR in TROUBLE
Gold Hill Executive Wanted BY Some
and Cndesired BY Others-Peti-
tions Are,i Circulation.

Gold Hill is again torn by munic-
ipal strife in which a great many of
the citizens are pitted against the
city council in their action in ap-
pointing DR.. r. c. Kelsey of that
city as mayor to succeed L. C. APP
plegate, who resigned July 1. The
result is that petitions are about the
city which would refer the action
of the council to the people and thus
afford a chance to oust Kelsey.
According to the opposition of the
council, the matter is a very tan
gled affair and not at all in accord
with the wishes of a majority of the
citizens of Gold Hill. Dr.. Kelsey,
they claim, was made the nominal
head of the Voters League prior to
election, from the fact that he organ
lied the league and took the leading
position. The league, they assert,
obtained promise from Kelsey that
in no case woud he be a candidate
or accept position under the coun-
Gil of the city. When election time
came both the Voters League and
the regular party agreed on the name
of l.. c. Applegate as mayor, who
was elected unanimously.
Applegate apparently did not like
the job and talked resignation after
the first council meeting His resig-
nation was rendered to the council
at their last meeting, July l, and the
council filled the vacancy by appoint
ing Kelsey.
Following the action, the political
bosses of both cliques held minia-
ture indignation meeting on the
street corners in groups OF three and
four, and finally decided the wise
course would be to circulate the in
itiative petition of the action of the
council.
The names of 10 per cent of the
voters were secured when the peti-
tion was sent to the city recorder to
be filed. However, Kelsey, say the
opposition, had conferred with the
city attorney, Robert G. Smith, of
Gold Hill and as a result Smith or
dered the recorder to refuse the pc
tition.
More Indignation meetings and the
committee appointed to obtain names
decided to obtain a majority of vot-
trs of the city instead of 10 per cent.
Their next move, they state, is to
issue mandamus proceedings against
tie council and then invoke the ref
erendum petition.

TRAGEDY AT GOLD HILL.
Train Runs Over Young Man From
Salem.

Another fatality in the Gold Hill
vicinity occurred last Friday night
when young man 23 years of age.
by the name of LIE Roy Garden. of
Salem, Ore, was killed by train No.
4. The cause may probably never
be known
According to the train crew. he
rounded a cure about a mile and a
half this side of Gold Hill. The
young man was walking down the
track at that time about $50 feet in
front of the oncoming locomotive.
He turned when he heard the train,
but continued on his way. The en-
gineer claims that he applied the
emergency, but as the train was 60
ing at 30 miles an hour the accident
could not be averted.
Death was practically instantane-
GUS. The skull was crushed and the
lower limbs broken in several places.
He died before the train reached
Gold Hill.
A fishing license issued at Salem
and few letters addressed to him
at that city gave the clew to his iden-
tity. According to the fishing license
he was 23 years of age, five feet
seven inches tall and weighed 1870
pounds

SENATE GUSTS LORIMER 2 TO Vote
BLONDE BOSS NEVER WAS MEMBER OF BODY ACCORDING tn
ADOPTION OF MINORITY REPORT OF COMMITTEE

Washington, d. C.-Senator Will
liam Lorimer of Illinois was expelled
from the Senate Saturday afternoon
by vote of 80 to 2S. BY that over
whelming verdict his colleagues
found him guilty of having been
elected on May "a, 1909, by corrupt
methods and practices"
With Lorimer's dramatic assertion
that his expulsion would be crime
of the senate" his colleagues voted
nearly to l to oust him as a bene-
ficiary of the fraud.
Lorimer did not vote on his own
case, but his aged colleague, Senator
Cullom of Illinois, turned against
him after having formerly voted to
keep him in the senate.
With smile on his face Lorimer
arose from his seat and with a
swinging gait walked toward the re-
publican cloak room. AS he reached
the door, Senator Smoot grasped his
hand and some friends from the
house Joined him. Senators Dilling-
ham, Jones and others who voted for
Lorimer Joined him in the cloak
room and bade him good bye.
Three senators were absent. Sew
eral were paired" and could not
vote. Senator Culbertson of Texas
originally voted to oust Lorimer and
then, being paired with Dupont of
Delaware, who was absent, withdrew
his vote.
At 1:40 p. m. the minority resolu-
ton was called up, holding it TO be
the sense of the senate that William
Lorimer's election was corrupt.
Resolved, That corrupt methoos
and practices were employed in the
election of William Lorimer to the
senate, and his election was, there
fore, invalid"
Lorimer's election followed a
three days speech by the senator,
dramatic and replete with invective
for his opponents. Beginning Thurs
day, Lorimer had spoken in all II p
hours when he relinquished the floor
at 1:90 Saturday afternoon. Lori
mer's fight for his official life began
almost Immediately after his election.
Charges and counter-charges of
bribery and corruption. elimination
and recrimination. indictments, trials
and confessions" galore have filled
the history of the case. Saturdays
vote in the senate ended one of the
most sensational legislative imbrog-
lios that the country mas ever known
1t began on April 80, 1910, about
year after the election of Lorimer
to the senate, with the publication in
the Chicago Tribune of a story by
Charles A. White, a member of the
Illinois legislature, exposing corrup-
tion in that body and charging that
White had been bribed to vote for
Lorimer for senator Lorimer was
elected by a combination of demo-
Gratis and republicans in the legisla-
ture. Shortly after the publication
of the White story, the new senator
arose in the senate chamber and de-
manded an investigation of his cleo
-tion. A senate investigation was or
dered and "a committee, headed by
Senator Burrows Republican, Michi-
GAM took up the task.
For nearly four months. Septem-
Der to December 1910, the commit
tee took testimony at Chicago and
Washington and finally submitted a
report eXonerating Lorimer. A mi

WRIGHT HOLDS SECRETS.
Aviator VIII Be Asked Never to Fly
Again.

Orville Wright, as the sole deposit
tary of much precious knowledge.
will be asked by the directors of his
company, it is said, never to fly
again. There is a certain synical
frankness in the reason given for
their solicitude, but the desire seems
to have at least sound commercial
basis.
Right here, however, there arises
a question as to how far a man to
whom nature has revealed amazing
secrets is justified in placing those
secrets in jeopardy by failure to COM
NIT them in writing. For the danger
of death in an aeroplane accident is
only one of the tragic possibilities.
Without loss of life there might come
loss of memory.
Since Wright has in measure left
the study and the workshop for the
board session and other incidents OF
financial life, he is in peculiar danger
of forgetting. Scarcely a trust hear
ing but reveals one or more witness
es physically hale. but utterly bereft
of the power to recall the simplest
details of transactions involving
large interests. 1t was only the other
day tnat financier, still young and
vigorous, was unable to recall what
he had done with $250.O00 sent to
him by business associates. New

Senator Beveridge of Indiana sus-
tanned the charges against Lorimer.
Alter a lengthy debate, in the
course of which Lorimer delivered
sensationally brilliant speech. de-
fendlng himself the majority report
was adopted by the senate on March
1, 1911, by vote of 46 to 40. five
not voting.
meantime the case had startled H.
llnois, and the state was ablaze with
developments. Indictment after in
dlctment was found against the men,
bers of the legislature which elected
Lorimer. White had Confessed"
that ne was given $1,000 by Repre-
sentative Lee O'Neil Browne. demo-
cratic leader of the legislature. and
$SOO by Representative Robert o.
wilson, to vote for Lorimer. Browne
was indicted for bribery. At his first
trial the jury disagreed and at the
second trial he was acquitted.
Charges of jury bribery in connec-
tion with his acquittal were made
but jury which tried the jury brib-
cry case disagreed. REPRESENTATIVE
Wilson and Michael Link were in
dicted for perjury.
Ihe Illinois legislature took I'M the
scandal, and the Helm" investigat-
ing committee was appointed after
the United States senate had exoner-
ated Lorimer. While this committee
was in session, Clarence S. Funk.
general manager of the International
harvester Company, testified that he
had been asked by Edward Hines. the
wealthy lumberman who had been
closely interested in the Lorimer
case IN the senate, to give $40, 900 of
$lOO,OOO fund to help put Lori
mer over at Springfield.
This created another sensation and
resulted in the reopening of the case
In the senate. A special committee
OF elght began demonstration of
the case. Once more the sordid stor-
les OF alleged bribery and corruption
were dragged out and once more the
numerous confessions" made their
appearance. Nearly 16O witnesses
were examined.
meantime Lorimer took his seat
daily in the senate chamber and con-
Quoted his own defense against the
charges that his place had been
bought.
The second committee, headed by
senator Dillingham; of Vermont.
brought in a majority report again
generating Lorimer, and a minority
report condemning him. Again the
debate began, and for months the
matter was under discussion. Final
ly an agreement was reached that "a
vote be taken on the Legislative
day" of July 6-last Saturday. But
the debate again grew bitter. and by
recessing instead of adiourning. the
senate kept itself on the Legislative
day of July 6" until Saturday, when
the final vote was reached.
There was well-defined belief in
the senate Saturday when it reas-
sembled to continue the Lorimer case
that the pro-Lorimer forces were
working to delay further the final
vote in the hope of changing several
waVering votes to the support of Lor-
inner.
The anti-Lorimer forces practically
had conceded that his speech of Fri
day had put back on Lorimer's side
two senator's counted upon as antag-
onlstlc to him on the second vote.
One of these was Ben Tillman.

TRAINS SLOW DOWN.
New Ordinance in MedfOrd to Guard
Against Accident,

The Southern Pacific has taken Of
ficial notice of Medford new ordi-
nance regulating the speed of loco
motives and trains within the city
limits, and all trains have cut down
their speed within the limits of the
city to eight miles an hour. The
change is pronounced, and it seems
impossible now for an accident at the
crossings in the city. In addition to
cutting down the speed the bells on
the engines are kept ringing contin-
uously while the train is in motion
within the limits of the city.
The Southern Pacific Company will
probably place gongs at the street
crossings in the city in addition to
cutting down the speed of its trains
Several of the officials have already
recommended this step after the re-
quest of the city had been received.

AFTER DATA
MRS. l.. NJ. p. REID OF NEW YORK
VISITS ASHLAND.
DELIGHTED WITH SURROUNDINGS
Finds That Ashland Has First-CIass
Hotels in Spite of Advice TO the
COntrary-Scenic Beauty Makes
Strong Impression.

Mrs. l.. NJ. P. Reid of New York
was in Ashland several days last
week gathering data for lectures to
be given throughout the east for the
encouragement of immigration to
Oregon. Mrs. Reid is working in the
interest of the Southern Pacific Com
pany and at present is making a tour
of the coast country, studying condi-
tions and laying up store of knowl-
edge in order that she may intelli-
gently and honestly present the facts
TO interested parties in the east. Her
work is but part of the immense
advertising plan of the railroad COM
pany. which plan includes the giving
of publicity lectures, illustrated with
photographs of the localities men
toned. Photographers of the COM
pany has already been here and are
continually looking for new scenes
for this work.
Mrs. Reid relates an interesting in
cident while coming to Ashland from
the south. AS the train neared the
state line, she inquired of a gentle
man regarding the cities of the
Rogue river valley, stating that she
would stop in both Medford and Ash
land. She was told to go direct to
Medford as Ashland could not fur
nish suitable hotel at which to
stop, Medford being the only place
in the valley with a decent hotel.
She accordingly made her plans in
line with his advice and went direct
to Medford. Before reaching this
city she asked the conductor as to
the Ashland hotels and was informed
that this city has first-class hostel
ries where the most courteous treat
ment would be accorded her. Mrs.
Reid had already made her plans,
however, and could not change.
Mrs. Reid is delighted with Ash
land and has made a number of trips
over the scenic roads of the city She
has words of praise for the pure air
and water, the beautiful park and
the splendid possibilities afforded
here. In her future lectures Ashland
will have place and will be pictured
as an ideal spot for a home or a va
cation. Mrs Reid took several pho
tographs OF beauty spots in the city.
She found, upon arrival in the city,
that hotel accommodations here are
of the best and the treatment accord
ed is courteous. When met she
was in company with Prof and Mrs.
H. G. Gilmore, who were assisting
her in the gathering OF data. Mr..
