The Committee of One Hundred,
the organization of business men OF
Oregon fighting for a dry state, has
received a copy of Bonfort's Wine
and Spirit Circular, one of the otfl-
cial organs of the liquor dealers, un-
der date of August 10, 1t says:
THE information received from
the backgrounds of California ore

ginia. where statewide elections on
the prohibition question will be held
this Fall, would seem to indicate
that all save Oregon are reasonably
safe. although some doubt is express
ed in regard to Virginia. >.
The Circular says the National or
ganization of liquor dealers should
center work on Oregon and Virgin
ia.
From reliable information it would
seem that the wet forces plan to
spend about 100000 on the fight in
Oregon this Fall. While they hope
to win, leaders of the wet forces in
Portland, admit they expect to see
the state go dry, while saloonmen
frankly are making preparations to
go into other lines of business.

OREGON MAYORS FAVOR DRY

The Mayors of cities and towns OF

MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
Thursday. August 27. 1914.
THREE PROPOSITIONS TO UN-
LOAD UPON THE TAXPAYER.

This is the period of the year
when the incubator of new schemes
to unload upon the taxpayer is work
ing overtime. At least three such
propositions are being got in shape
to bring before the legislature.
One of these is the Gano free en-
ployment bureau and coffee house
combined. Its promoter estimates 1t
would cost $4,000 to set up one in
each city and town, the expense to be
shared by the municipality, the
county and the state.
Fifty of these establishments
would cost the taxpayer s150.00o,
and then whatever employment was
given would be paid by the employ
er. The s150,0o0 would not be ex-
nended in employing labor but for
salaries of officials.
The expenditure would not stop
with that sum if these institutions
are once established. All such func-
tions in the name of the state once
organized grow and their expense in
creases from year to year.
A state rat catching campaign has
been inaugurated. Rat surveys are
being made. The state food commits
sioner is asking for legislation to
exterminate rats. That means a
State Rat Catcher or Rat Commits
sioner.
The third proposition to be sprung
on the legislature is the creation OF
the office of County Advisor-an ex-
pert to give advice to all county Of
ficials about the duties of their Of
fees.
This is now the duty of the coun-
ty attorney and the Attorney Genera!
of the state. But the County Adj
visor would be giving advice about
Office duties and business matters.
The legislature is blamed fol
many foolish laws and new burdens
laid upon the taxpayer, which really
are organized and put over from the
outside by those interested in thu
proposed crafts.

THE sound of his native tongue, the tongue of his
family table, caressed Hauser's lonesome ear
with infinite tenderness with wistful and pleas
urable sensation. Here was German. German
like himself And New York seemed SO big, SO
cold, SO formidable, and he SO alone in it. Quickly,
with heart that gushed forth it's silent thankfulness
at having thus soon and thus providentiay en-
countered a possibly companonable soul in this
great, bleak city, Hauser replied to the man in
German. And, after brief continuation of the
conversation Hauser being forced to do most of
the talking-the man consented to point out to
"the stranger" (Hauser) place where he could
get "rea Wurzburger." Once arrived at the in
stitution-it was in Third Avenue near Fourteenth
Street.-The man. after some hesitation allowed him

that he could speak no English)-he was "broke"

the shadowing Stood was the criminal In fact,
Hauser was grandly calm under the shadowing and
the Chief consequence certain he had muir
dered Florence Brunner that the Chief-contrary
to what most detectives might have done in the same
case-took the three shadows off Rettund and set
the whole pack of six to continue the mock and
melodramatic shadowing of Hauser For it is one
of the Chiefs beliefs that it is frequently better to
make sought-after criminal sure that you suspect
him than to pretend you do not. The criminal may
then possibly "overtrain himself which is to
say, everyday his Innocence" that the fastening of
the guilt upon him may be accomplished with less
delay than might otherwise be the case It is easier
to trap man who is acting role than one who is
not concerned with what certain people are thinking
of him-and who consequently, may apply all his
mental powers to figuring out ways to protect him
self.
The Chief knew that so long as Hauser remained
in the little town it would be impossible to get any
evidence against him. No one had seen the murder
and, SO far as the law went, there was not way,
even remote, in which he might be connected with
the crime, not an ounce of evidence on which he
might be arrested, much less convicted Assuming
that his analysis of the mystery of Florence Brunners
murder was correct, the Chief was thoroughly aware
that the only manner in which to "get" Hauser
would be through confession by Hauser. He
alone could con0ict himself And so long as he re-
NAMED in the little town. where it would be utterly
impossible to put real shadow at his heels, not
only would the obtaining of this confession be
out of all question: but SO, too, would be the
possibility of obtaining any clues from what,
were shadowing possible, might be "given-away"

Nervousness, in such crisis, he would have realized

The Picture of Girl in Blue

II ERE then, was the Chiefs problem How to
force Hauser to leave town against his will, to
leave this small place where he we'll knew he was alb
soutely safe, and, after he had been weaned away
from the town, how to persuade him to confess? To
confess bear in mind despite the fact that there was
not shred of evidence against him and despite the
fact that he knee there wasn't shred of evidence
against him.
The situation, clearly enough, was battle between
the young Germans mind on the one side and the
Chiefs on the other And the odds seemed obvious
ly in favor of Hauser because Hauser through the
agency of the six shadows the Chief had attached to
him. thoroughly cognizant of the fact that he was
under suspicion.
Therefore, as the facts of the murder were locked
up in Hausers mind the Chief set to working against
that mind. As the first step in this campaign, the
detective called of the shadows off Hauser's
trail and simply told the shadow to go out and steal
dog. To buy dog might excite comment and
comment in this initial stage of the campaign would
be undesirable.
The shadow returned to the boarding house
where the Chief was stopping an hour later. A dog
was with him.
"Now," said the Chief, take the dog down in
the cellar, tie him up and-et me see, it's now ten
thirty a m.-don't give him anything to eat un-
til"
"Until when?'' asked the shadow, as the Chief
failed to finish
Until tell you, ended the Chief
At twelve O'Clock that night, Hauser, tossing in
his bed and unable to Sleep heard dog bowling
and whining in the street below his window. The
weird sound made Hauser feel queer He didn't
know the dog was bowling for food. He didn't
know, to be sure just what the dog was bowling for
But he did know the bowling produced very shiv-
cry effect on him.
The next night, as the town clock struck twelve,
Hauser heard the bowling and whining of the dog
again. And again it sent strange feeling into his
veins. Why should dog howl two nights in sue
cession and at the same hour under his window?
The young German Wonderland his nerves

began to CULVER little He got up and looked out
of the window. He couldn't the dog. But he
could still hear its dismal waiing the wailing that
more than anything else in the world sounds in the
death-quiet of night like the wailing of some lost
soul. And of course, he could not know that the
hungry dog, which had been given just enough food
to keep life going in its body only bowling at
the end of leash held firm by the shadow for the
piece of meat which the Chief held foot away
from its nose.
The third night, Hauser again at midnight heard
the bowling. Could this be coincidence? he
asked himself. Or was there something else to it?
Why should this inexplicable bowling come to his
ears on three successive nights and at the same
hour, the hour of midnight? 1t struck him some
thing unearthy uncanny. And when, on the night
after that, the bowling still continued to drive sleep
from his aching head the sleep he had SO vainly
wished for these last three ights-he made up his
mind he could stand the terrible thing no longer.
There something more to this than coincidence.
Of this, he certain. There something that
sent the shivers deep into his SOUL There was some
thing that sent before his eyes the picture of girl
dressed in blue lying on the ground, her hair, once
golden, now smeared with red.
The next morning, Hauser sneaked out of town.
And the Chief knew now for certainty who it
that had murdered Florence Drummer.
But still there was no evidence against the man,
still hope to apprehend him save through his
confession. The first step in the battle had turned
in the Chiefs favor-but it was little step indeed
when compared to the steps that must lead to the
final landing.
Hauser, through the agency of a couple of new men
whom the Chief had drawn on, apparently to sell
magazines and install slot-machines respectively in
the depot of the little town, but really to watch for
the German boys departure once the dog was set to
play it's share in the strategic game against the muir
derer's mind, was Swallowed to New York and fol-
lowed to boarding house in East Fifteenth Street
where he engaged ROOM That night, when he
came down the steps of the house and started to walk

had been momentarily diverted by cry of pain
behind him from a newsboy who had given his
ankle an inconsequentia but for the second nasty
wrench.

pleasantly "Nein, nein," he exclaimed; Sag
