BRAKEMAN FIGHTS WITH
HOBOES AT WILSON CREEK
- f,-FFf Z a.,' ~ X '' .s.-
MR.. O'Hara Of this City is Shot in the
Shoulder by Thug1Only VIZ
Slight Injury. ~ g,,s 70:

. M. R, O'Hara, a, brakeman on the
Great Northern working, out Of this city,
received a bullet wound in'the shoulder
Wednesday, May 81, at Wilson Creek,
when he started a fight, with a hobo
who had thrown. him off his ,trainta short
time before. O'Hara had had an alter
cation with three men who were beat
ing their way on his train, and when he
attempted to put them off one of the
men drew revolver and ordered him
to move on.
Later while eating at a restaurant in
Wilson Creek O'Hara recognized the
three hoboes and started fight with
them. One of the men with whom he
grappled drew his revolver and COM
menced firing, the first shot striking
the brakeman in the right shoulder.
While suffering considerable pain from
the wound O'Hara did not give up the
fight and in the mixup that followed,
each man trying to turn the gun on
the other fellow, four more shots were
fred none however taking effect.
O'Hara finally succeeded in getting the
pistol and held his man until the Off
GERS arrived.
By this time he had become quite
weak from the loss of blood and was
taken to the Sacred Heart Hospital in
Spokane on the first train, where it was
found that his wound was not of ser
ious nature! He returned to this city
the first of the week. 1! will probably
be several weeks yet before he will be
able to resume his duties.
Much excitement prevailed after the
shooting which occurred about $3.50 in
the evening and lynching was averted
by Night Marshall Radley who pulled
his gun and kept the crowd back from
the Jail. For fear the mob might get
the prisoner he was transferred the
same evening in an automobile to
Ephrata for safe keeping.

 TATE, SUNDAY. SEPT. 21.

The twenty-third annual session of Central Baptist College will open on next Wednesday, September IT. Dr. John w. Conger, president of the in- stitution, states that the prospects for record attendance are most en- couraging, and that there is no doubt but that every available room in the dormitories will be occupied with boarding students. A large number from this city are expected to enter Central this session.
 On next Tuesday, the work of class flying students will be begun, and it is thought this work will be complet- ed on the second day. The public ex- ercises will be held in the college audi torium Wednesday evening at 8:30. On this occasion Dr. J. P.

 The opening sermon will be preach ed at the First Baptist church on Sunday morning, September 21, by Rev. c. F. J. Tate of Hot Springs.
 A number of improvements have been made at the college during the summer, many of the rooms being re- furnished, papered and otherwise made more attractive.

DRAINAGE PROBLEM
 PUT UP TO WILDMAN

President Jo Frauenthal of the Board of Trade today received let ter from Supt. c. B. Wildman of the Iron Mountain stating that he would come to Conway in a few days and investigate the matter of obstructing the drainage ditches running along the railroad right-of way through the public square. The company has dam med up the ditch on the east side or their tracks at the north end of the square and will endeavor to carry the drainage water through the one ditch on the west side of the track This, it is believed, cannot be done, as the entire square has frequently been flooded after heavy rains with both ditches in service. It is thought the extra water will result in flooding the city light plant as we'll as much other property on the west side of the square.

 SPECIAL SESSION
STATE IN DIRE STRAITS
AUDITOR WOULD BORROW QUARTER MILLION FROM
 STATE CAPITOL FUND.

Little Rock, Sept. 12.-The fnan- cial straits of the general revenue iand of the state is subject that is rapidly eclpsing all others in the states affairs. tSate Auditor l.. L. Coff'n,aT has made puplic the state ment that the general revenue is ex- hausted, and that the only remedy is to borrow $25O,OO0 from the state capitol fund This can be done only by calling an extra session of the legislature. The governor approves the plan, and says that if MT. Golf mans plan were carried out the state could repay the capitol fund in three years This would put the state on a cash basis.
 But Governor Hays is afraid that complications might get into the leg islature. Mr. Coffman, however, says he is not afraid to trust the men elected by the people to carry out such matters as are to the best interest of the state.
 "I believe" said he, that the mem-
 bers of the legislature would agree, beforehand, to consider only such matters as should be embraced in the call of the governor. Contrary to the impression of some, l believe that a very large majority of the members of each house are honest, patriotic men and that they would be ready to meet the emergency now confronting the state. Under the law, they could not remain in session more than 15 days at $3 each per day.
 { Arguments in favor of a special session of the legislature to remedy the present financial condition of the state cannot be answered by merely
The log cabin Democrat., 1913-09-12

calling the legislators names. If the legislature is really a nuisance and trouble maker, then the state had bet ter abolish the legislature altogether. But far from being a trouble maker, the legislature is now trouble saver.
 '"As the auditor of the state of Ar kansas, I would deem myself recreant to my trust if l did not offer some remedy for the financial crisis which confronts the state. Naturally the first question asked by the people throughout the state is What is the crisis of which you speak?' It is this: {: The great state of Arkansas, with hundreds of thousands of dollars in it's strong box, owes creditors throughout the state some $300,000 which it will not pay.
 Ut will not allow one of it's citizens to owe a just debt if he has a dollar over and above his exemptions, but it will set him the example of doing that same thing itself.
 At different times the newspapers carry advertisements asking bids to furnish the institutions of the state with meat, flour, clothing, medicine, and everything else needed. The to- tai cost, under ordinary conditions, is enormous. With warrants now de- preciated, and they will go lower, the bidder, in order to protect himself, must enhance his price. The state must have the goods, regardless of the price. Does it not seem the part of wisdom to spend small amount in order that a very large sum may be saved?
 Ut should be remembered that the
The log cabin Democrat., 1913-09-12

depreciation in state warrants must be paid by the people in the long run. Every excess paid beyond the regular. price is tax on the people which can be saved. If this be true, why should it not be done? The money is in the treasury, more than sufficient to meet the pressing demands of the state. Why should the people be taxed to pay the depreciation in warrants, when it can be avoided and without injury to any interest of the state?
 "The state is placed in the ridicu- lous attitude of lending money to banks throughout the state at approx imately 4 per cent, when it is paying more than 10 per cent on hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of SUD- plies which it is buying on credit
 What business man would be guilty of such childish financial man. agement as to do all of these things merely because he did not wish to use the money which he had locked away without bringing any interest what ever?
 1.-Two courses only are open: Eth CT bond issue or the one which l suggested few days ago, viz: trans, fer some $250,000 from the state capi- tol fund to the general revenue fund The last legislature showed too plain ly it's sentiment towards bond issue to hope for help b ythat course. Work on the capitol would go right along as it is now. Not so very much money will be needed from this fund now until January 1, when more will be added to it."

Grand Junction-The annual meet
ing of the Grand Junction Fruit Grow
ers' Association will be held here Feb

Because of the low prices received
for fruit the past year there is much
discomfort among the ranchers OF the
valley, who believe that the method
of selling their fruit should be
changed. In the past the fruit has
been sold through agencies and com
mission men in the east, often going
through the hands of as many as six
different middlemen before it reaches
the consumer. The finest Grand Vat
ley apples are selling for more than
SO per box in eastern markets, ye;
little more than Sl.25 is received here.
There are two proposals under con-
sideration. One is union OF the
three fruit growers associations OF
the Grand Valley, and the ultimate
combination of all in western Colo
RADIO. The other is that of employing
travelling statesmen. There is doubt
in the minds of some growers about
the legality of western slope com
bination. Some believe that 1t would
be monopoly and subject to dissolu'
ton under the Sherman antitrust law.
