rowed and abused by others-it will
not be amiss to explain that the pres
ent writer is not a resident of Camas
Prairie and has no reason to believe
that he ever will be. and has not a
dollar invested there. But practically
every man, woman. child and domestic
animal is either Iiets0aal sacquaint-
ance or Is known Of by the present
writer who is also familiar with every
foot OF the country. .';'a'"
The Impressions given out by Mr..
Smith. bring to mind many questions: {:
Does he really know how a pauper
lives? Did he visit the homes OF all
the families in Camas Prairie, or a
large or small per cent OF them or
did he visit the home OF any resident
of that section. or did he take the
word of some one else who had some
motive IN knocking the country.
If he did visit the homes of
any one there, did he stay for a meal,
or a day. or a week. or did he stop
| for five minutes and consult some
housewife whose modesty forbid her
celebrating on the board OF the home
Is it possible that Mr.. Smith dashed
through the valley In an auto. hur-
riedly sizing up conditions, leaving
the same day he arrived? Railroad
men do not spend much time in any
particular spot.
If he did take time to become IA
miliar with conditions. did Mr.. Smith
carry into the valley a stomach that
was capable of digesting the food that
| Is essential to the health and happi-
ness of sturdy folk. such as are found
in Camas Prairie. or did ,hesgo In with
his innards primed- for raw eggs. to-
matoes. and other articles that sooth

of dissipation and Jack. Of exercise?
| Home cured meats, although pure
buttermIlk BISCUITS, creamed potatoes
and peas, boiled cabbage and other
vegetables, mincemeat and other
rich pies, pound cake, and hundreds
OF other solids, such as are found on
the tables of the Camas Prairie resi-
dents. are strictly to be avoided by
persons carrying alcoholic blistered
stomachs. On the other hand, day

lies Camas Prairie. as beautiful and
twelve miles from east to west by
to find hidden away in the fastness
OF any mountain range in America.
Its area would measure probably
twenty miles from east to west by
ten miles from north to south. A
population Of probably one thousand
inhabitants is to be found within the
hounds OF this natural garden spot
For most part the inhabitants are

A short time ago some person.
writing under the name Of Smith and
who is reported to be representing
railroad interests. gave his impress
sions of the country in an article
which was circulated. Among other
unfavorable assertions, regarding the
section. he declared that the inhabi-
tants OF Camas Prairie lived like
paupers. This has brought storm of
indignant and just protest from the
residents of the valley.
Before saying anything to discred-
it the statement of Mr.. Smith-who-
ever he may be; there are so many
Smiths and the name has been bor-

of a COW pony or a day spent in nu-
mas Prairie, cause the stomach to cry
loudly for real food, and the peo-
pie of that section certainly do bark
en- to such pleading.
If Mr.. Smith will spend a week in
Camas Prairie, in any one of the pas
times mentioned in the foregoing
paragraph, he can safely lay bet
for all he has Of this worlds goods,
that he will gladly devour a meal of
"dough-gobs," '.lick-dob" and SOW
belly" and assert as strongly that Ca
mas Prairie folk live like kings as he
now asserts that they live like pau
pers.
After this experiment, Mr.. Smith
would then be able to cast an appreci-
ative eye on the many blessings which
have been bestowed on the residents
OF Camas Prairie. He could look
with an intelligent eye on the thous-
ands OF acres of barley. rye, timothy,
clover. alfalfa, and other grain and
hay that yield from four to seven tons
to the acre; on the gardens that con-
tribute extravagantly to the summer
fare of the residents and fill their cell
lars for winter; on the numerous
herds of milch cows that produce pure
rich milk and golden butter-too
| rich for abused stomachs-on the
poultry yards that supply an abund-
ance of eggs and fried springer with
country gravy: on the surrounding
hills which yield huckleberries by the
hundreds of gallons-Mr. Smith should
be able to eat a huckleberry short
cske-and furnish range feed all sum-
mer for the cattle, hogs and sheep
herds which enable the residents to
purchase the fruit and other neces-
stiles of life, that are not grown at
home, and keep their accounts increas-
ing at the banks in town. In fact,
| If the writer Is not laboring under
false impression, Mr.. Smith should
get acquainted with Camas Prairie
residents, and then read his article,
which is amusing to every one familiar
with the condition of the section, but
an injustice in view of the fact that
some, unacquainted with the country
and it's population, may have read his
knock" and believed a part of it.

CLASS RUSH ON
KINCAID FIELD

Eugene. Ore, Sept. 27.-Plans are
complete for the freshman-s sophomore
class rush. which will be held Satur-
day. and which Is to be one of the
most eventful days of the college
year because of the great number and
weight of the first-year classmen. The
class-rush programme, which has
substituted for hazing at Oregon, in
cludes the following events:
Tug War-10 men on a side;
counts 10 points; will be held across
campus pond Sandbag contest-In-
volving the capture OF the majority
of so 50-pound sandbags in 10 min
utes; counts 10 points. Pushball
contest-50 men on side play foot
ball in 15-minute halves with 10
foot push ball; each goal counts 25
points. Yells, decorations, general
appearance, most unique feature,
count 10 points each. Half-mile re-
lay race, with 10 men on a side,
counts 10 points.
Upper classmen act as judges and
the events are witnessed by the en-
tire college and townspeople on Kin
caid field The freshmen have or
ganized and are preparing to make
brave defense against the onslaught
of the smaller class.

ing in the Auten store for several
months. Only one shot had been
fired from the gun, which Craddock
had near his body, but two bullet
holes were found in the panel of the
office where Craddocks body was
found. There is no motive for sul-
eide and no letters or other clews
were found on the body that would
clear the mystery. j. B. Auten found
the body on his return from lunch
at 1880. Nothing in the store had
been touched and no one heard the
fatal shot. The general opinion here
is that deceased committed suicide,
although several matters are yet un-
explained. One theory to account
for the extra hole in the panel Is
that a piece OF the skull was blown
through It.

Pennsylvania. ReHresentqtive Hefin
rose to a question Of personal priv.
lege in the house and bitterly attack,
ed conditions in the Keystone state.
Mr.. Helm declared no such camps
as Mr. Focht described existed in Ala

man from Pennsylvania read" said
Mr.. Het1in, was anonymous. He
said it came from a gentleman in my
district who lived near my house and
was friend of his The camp where
he charged convict was whipped for
the entertainment of a Yankee was
never in the boundary of Alabama"
Mr.. Hefin related in infurated
tones revolving story of cruelty in
the Pennsylvania mining camps in
which he charged that the coal COM
panies of Pennsylvania erected stock
AIDES. shot, disfigured and wounded
men who tried to escape from the
clutches of industrial slavery"
Representative Palmer of Pennsyl-
Vanla interrupted with the statement
that the conditions charged by Mr..
Hef1in were probably true in past
days, but that Pennsylvania has seen
the light and driven out such condi-
tions." He requested that no further
reference be made to the past
Mr.. FOcht who Drecipitated Hef1in'S
attack, was absent.
