FAIR NOTES.

All committees of the District Fair
are requested to be present at the
Natatorium ready for business next
Tuesday morning. Mrs. Vaupel also
asks the Tidings to correct a wrong
impression that seems to have gone
forth, that no article that has not
been produced within the past six
months is eligible for entry for pre-
miums. The rule is that any manu-
factured article can be entered which
has never been entered for a pre-
MUM before, providing the maker is
a resident of Jackson or Josephine
counties.
1t is particularly desired that there
be large display OF curios, relics
and the like. and especially of stuffed
animals. These are merely for dis
play, though should the gate receipts
warrant, it is the intention of the
management to give additional pre-
miums. The best possible care will
be taken of exhibits and so far as
possible they will be placed in glass
cases.

Eirst Saw Crater Lake.

Captain o. C. Applegate has re-
ceived a letter from j. w. Hillman
OF Hope Villa, La, the discoverer of
Crater Lake, in which the writer re-
calls his trip trip to the lake SO years
ago, and the impressions it gave him
at that time. Hillman was one Of, a
prospecting party hunting for yalu-
able minerals in 1852, and happened
to be foremost of the party when the
lake was found. In those days he
was in business in Jacksonville, Ore,
which was the principal trading point
OF the region, there being no white
people in the vicinity. Mr. Hillman
was at that time in business at Jack
sonville with Alexander Martin, Sr.,
now president of the First National
Bank of klamath Falls, to whom he
refers in his letter as Jerry" e
Among other things he says in his
letter.
y was very much pleased with
yours of July 10, as Jerry had mem
toned you in one of his letters to
me, and the postal cards were re-
minders of day long past, only
there was no. hotel at that point
when l first saw it. Wizard Island
looks very natural to me, as every
thing connected with the discovery
does.
There is one thing connected with
the discovery have never mentioned
in writing about it, although | have
often spoken of it in telling of the
popularity of the lake, and Others
may have imagined the same thing
that all of our party did. We rode
past Wizard Island, leaving it on our
right, looking for an outlet to the
lake. l was in the lead, and although
the snow was down to the water in
many places on the banks, yet oppo-
site the island the land was bare, and
just after passing the island
thought my mule flinched as though
his feet hurt. | placed my hand
down below my knee and called tC
the boys, telling them we were near
fire, as perceptible heat was arising
from the surface. 1t might have been
imagination on my part, but, if so
the entire party had the same imag
ination, for they all agreed with me

Refuse to Be Disturbed.

Topeka, Kan-With a ton of fire
works this city has begun battle
against the thousands of blackbirds
that have infested the great elms and
made the streets here dangerous and
unsightly. Professor L. L. Dyche,
state fish and game warden, told the
city officials that roman candles
would drive them out. Recently four
men spent several hours firing the
candles singly and by volleys into the
trees.
AS the flying tails of fire swept
through the trees the birds fairly
screamed at their disturbers. A few
took wing and flew to nearby trees,
but most of them had their roosts
and chartered noisily
Finally the firing squad gave up.

Transferred to Grants Pass.

Lawrence b. Rich, the Klamath
Falls shoe merchant who is accused
of polygamy by Miss Jessie Layton,
who has been known as his wife since
last February, was taken to Grants
Pass, Ore, for trial in Josephine
county.
Announcement of this was made
recently, and coincident with it came
the announcement that Rich would
drop his ideas of obtaining his re-
lease on a habeas corpus writ and
would not fight his transfer to
Grants Pass. where his alleged ille-
gal marriage with Miss Layton took
place.
Rich repeatedly refused to make
any comment regarding the so-called
wife No. =, or to add in any way to
the statement made last week.

CHINA PHEAsANTs INCREASE.
Grouse Are Especially Plentiful in
Northern Linn County.

Albany, Ore.-With a closed sea-
son last year, China pheasants have
been increasing in number rapidly
and farmers report that the birds are
becoming plentiful in this part of the
state. There is no open season for
them this year either and it is ex-
pected that they will be numerous
in 1913, when the ban will be lifted
unless the present law is modified
by the next legislature.
Grouse are especially plentiful and
in some places in the northern part
of Linn county there are more this
year than ever before. The open
season on grouse this year is from
October 10 to November 10.

Sad Death OF
Caldwell BOY

Last Saturday afternoon the citizens
of Caldwell and vicinity we're shocked
when the intelligence was conveyed
to them that Kent McVey, the second
SON of Judge w. S. McVey, had been
drowned in Lake Lowell.
The young man, with his companion
Bryan Harding, the 1s-year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Lem Harding, left
early in the day with the intention of
spending the afternoon in the pleas
ant pastime of skating on the lake. The
boys were enjoying themselves freely
and forgetfuI Of the soft, warm rain
of the night before, they skated too
far out upon the lake. Sunnedly
the ice broke, letting them both into
the water, with the result that Kent
McVey was drowned, and young
Harding barely escaped with his life
after making many futile attempts te
save his companion. The accident
happened about $50 o'clock.
After his friend had gone down fol
the last time, Bryan Harding skatet
to the construction camp, where the
casualty was reported.
As soon as possible about 50 mel
from Caldwell arrived on the scene o
the disaster, and the body OF tn
drowned youth was recovered, in goos
condition, short time afterward. /
was brought to Caldwell and place.
i in charge of the Platt-Peckham Fur
niture and Undertaking company.
l Kent William McVey, was borl
December so. 1896. in Charter Gal
Iowa. He is survived by his father
w. S. McVey. a sister, Vera Meve,
and two brothers, Donald and Roge
McVey. The mother died about tw
years ago in Caldwell, where tn
family has lived for several years.
The deceased was freshman in tn
Caldwell High School. He was know
as = good worker and popular DO,
: He was generally rather reticent an
,, quiet for one of his years. He wa
respectful and courteous to HI
: teachers, and was held in high esteel
by both teachers and pupils.
: The funeral services were conduc
ed at the Methodist church. of whic
! the deceased was member. at tw
/ o'clock on Monday afternoon. D

side of the mother in the Canyon III

Sixth: That a modern telegraph
fire alarm system be installed as soon
as fund sare available.
Seventh: That three paid fremen
be maintained at the city hall, at least
two of which to be capable of hand
ling the motor driven apparatus.
The value of having three compel
ent firemen as a nucleus for the de-
partment work, will become apparent
the first large fire occurring. Full
paid fremen should always sleep at
headquarters.
Eighth: No member of the fire
department either full paid or volun-
teer be allowed to keep liquor. at the
headquarters or stay there while in
subject the offender to dismissal.
Ninth: 1t is understood that the
present building ordinance is not act
lively enforced for various reasons and
a substitute is herewith presented for
your consideration.
Tenth: Enactment of a fire works
ordinance is suggested along the lines
of the copy enclosed. 1t is a matter
of public record that "Sane" Fourth
of Julys have materially lessened the
fire and death loss on this day.
Eleventh: Generally speaking the
accumulation of rubbish in the mer-
camille district is not alarming. The
worst yards being in the rear of The
Tribune Printing Office '(ouchD and
the Colonial Candy Kitchen. Lack Of
metal receptacles for ashes were
noticed in several instances.
In the rear of the buildings
on the north side of Main
Street was noted several wood pack
ing cases filled with excelsior and
paper. Owing to the close proxi-
nifty of the railroad tracks-this con.
dition is fire breeder.
After giving these matters your con.
sideration, I will appreciate a letter
addressed to the Board of Fire Under
writer's, Salt Lake City. Utah. setting
forth the improvements, that you will
be enabled to carry out in the neal
future and the report on your towr
will then be forwarded to the Fir'
Insurance Companies.
i Respectfully submitted.

Would Abolish the Senate.


Hon. Dow Dunning, state senator
from Owyhee county and candidate
for the Democratic nomination tor
governor two years hence, advocates
the abolition of the state senate. Sem
ator Dunning argues that proper ini-
tiative and referendum laws will do
away with the necessity for the higher
house of the state legislature. Great
things are to come from the initiative
and Acknowledgements we imagine
than their fondest friends ever antici-
pated. Without regard to the initia-
tive and referendum, great many
people will look upon the abolition OF
the state senate with indifference and
some will feel highly elated. There
are people who would not grieve to
any great extent if the entire legisla..
ture were done away with. Such OF
course are the extereme radi-
cal. In. this day it is pro-
ftable to be radical-the more
radical YOU are the higher you stand
in public esteem. The estimate place.
ed by the public measures the success
with which a politician meets. Poll
tics is the life breath of Hon. Dow
and if he will 60 the whole hog we
predict that he will be safely nominal
ed and elected governor Of the state
1t will be a good thing for the peo-
pie of Idaho when they will have fin
ished trying every fantastic idea ad-
vanced. The people are in a frame
Of mind where they must go. the
gamut before they will be satisfied
Let us hasten through the scale thai
we may again get back to pitch.
