tough luck few days since. Mr..

hogs and "a lot of neatly sacked sau-
sage hanging in the smoke house
looked like "A nice addition to the
winter larder. The night after, hun
cry dogs scratched under the floor
and entered the meat house and
completely devoured all of the sau-
sage. but were considerat" enough
to leave the premises without mo-
testing any Of the pork.

God to do this work. We attended
three services at Liberty and can
testify to his ability to present thu
truth of the Bible and the doctrine
Of salvation by grace. He is also
very fearless preacher and de-
nounces sin in terms that are UNI
mistakable. He discards the use of
gloves in dealing with wrong doing
and news to the line without regard
to the falling of the chips. We were
told by several persons there that
his sermons were being endorsed by
the best people. in fact all admitted
that he was doing the kind of
preaching that was needed. and that
good would result from it. He will
take up the work shortly after New
Year and hold meetings at several
points in this and Lincoln counties
and labor throughout the year at
different points.

never failed to support every man
whose name appears under the DEM

trustee receives his support unless
he is a disciple Of Thomas jefferson.

rev. WALKER GOES TO
ANTI-sAL00N CONVENTION
esvrner Appoints DELEGATES From
kentuckv and Whisky Men e.
Criticize Him.

Rev. ID. NJ. Walker leavee next
week for Washington. where he will
attend the national convention Of
the Anti Saloon League. having been
appointed one of the delegates
from Kentucky by Gov. MeCreary,
together with n number of other
prominent temperance workers over
the state. Rev. +. M. finder. OF
Lancaster, was also made dele
gate. A number Of local temperance
workers made up a purse for the
rnrycee of defraving Rev. Walker
expense TO and from the convention.
In connection with the appoint
ment OF delegates bv the governor
10 the Anti-Saloon Convention. the
Louisville Herald saws that such an
act has "riled' the whisky men con-
siderably. The Herald saws:
When Gov. James Il. McCreary, "A
few DAYS ago. appointed delegates
TO represent the State of Kentucky
al conference of the Anti-Saloon
ington. December 10. he threw the
gauntlet to the liquor interests OF
Louisville and the entire state ~
Kentucky according to informatio
received in local whisky circles.
This practically means that the
Governor and the present state adj
ministration and the liquor inter
csts of Kentucky are out at outs
and that soon there will be some in
teresting complications.
The chief cause for complaint
against the action of Gov. McCreary
according 10 the view taken by the
whisky men. is that the appointment
Of the delegates by the Governor
gives an impression that the State
Of Kentucky lends approval of the
cause of the Anti Saloon League.
The whisky men point out that
Gov. McCrearv went out OF his wav
10 name the dele~ates To the WASH
ington conference. He was not re-
auired under the law to designate
anyone 10 attend the meeting. While
he had the right as a private citizen
il is argued. still it showed bad
Judgment on his part not TO say IN
difference to the interests Of the
people nj large to place the entire
State of Kentucky in a false att'-
tude.
II would have been proper for
him. according TO the complaints TO
have followed the custom establish
ed by his predecessors and thrust
aside any Advancement from an or
panization that would tend TO create
class feeling.
Apart from this. the liquor men
moi only viii send out their petition
10 explain the true conditions IN the
state, hut thew will delegate certain
men TO 81 to Washington when the
conference is held and nlace the is
sue fairly ind souarely up to the
representatives in Congress from
IN, State of Kentucky. In short
this means thew will work for the
defat of the Kenyon bill. pending
before congress. which holds more
than ordinary interest for the Anti
Saloon League people bv reason Of
the fact that il is favorable to their
cause and therefore, detrimental TO
he interests Of the liquor trade.

PLANT READY BY

RAPID PROGRESS MARKS WORK
ON ARMSBY PACKING HOUSE.
Euilding Really for Machinery Early
i'm Coming Week Says Contractor;
Prune Crop Light Here.

With a full force of men employed,
work is being rushed on the prune
packing plant of the j. K. Armsby
company in this city and Contractor
McIntire is authority for the predc-
tion that the building will probably
be completed by the first of next
week. The work of installing the
machinery will then begin and it is
hoped to have this completed and the
plant ready for operation by Septem-
Der 10.
Mr.. McIntire has just returned
from a trip to Roseburg and says
that the prospects for good crop of
prunes in that vicinity is not nearly
as bright now as few days ago.
The warm weather is having a ten
dency to cause the fruit to drop to a
great extent he says and this is bound
to have it's effect.
Crop Light Here.
ut is my belief that the prune
crop of Polk county will not average
more than 80 or 40 per cent" said
r. L. Chapman, the well-known
grower today. while the fruit is not
dropping more than usual at this
time of year, those growers who neg
lected to give their orchards a thor
ough cultivating early in the season
are apt to find that more of their
fruit will drop than is usual"

MACHINE PLUNGES
DOWN GRADE
JAMES V. CHITTY INJURED WHEN
ENGINE GOES INTO DITCH.
Accident Occurs Early Sunday Morn
Ankle Crushed Under Machine.

Plunging With his engine off the
road grade near Ballston at an early
hour Sunday morning, and being pin
ned down by the heavy machine for
some time, until companions succeed
ed in freeing him, James V. Chitty
road master in district No. 1, and a
wellknown citizen of Polk county
had a miraculous escape from serious
injury and possible oath. Mr.. Chitty
who has had charge of the road
work in Northwestern Polk started
for Dallas with the engine late Sat
urday night following the shutting
down of operations for the season.
The accident occurred about 2
o'clock Sunday morning at small
bridge near Ballston where the grade
is not as wide as the bridge. In the
darkness it was impossible to distin-
guish this feature and, while the
front wheels kept on the grade, the
rear wheels being wider, failed to do
so and the heavy engine plunged
down the grade and landed on its
side. The machine caught Mr.. Chit
tvs left ankle and held him so Sc
curely that companions found it nee
essary to dig away the ground in or
der to free the injured man. He was
brought to this city on the tank wag-
on where his injuries were attended
to and it was found that he was not
seriously injured, although it will be
some time before he will be able to
be about as usual
Sunday the engine was righted by
Lou Muscott and number of work.
men when it was found that the ma
chine was not seriously injured.
