Undergo Big Cut

Astoria, Aug. 25.-The recent
report that the government in it's
plan of reducing the regular army
of the United States to approx
mately 10000 men instead Of
the 100000 minimum requested
by General Pershing, would leave
only a few lieutenants and a mere
handful of men to man the de-
,fenses Of the Columbia including
Forts Stevens, Or, and Columbia
and anby, Wash, is being given
serious consideration by the As
toria Chamber of Commerce and
personal attention by William P.
O'Brien, its president, who will
endeavor to check up the report
that only small detachments Of
care takers will in the not dis
tant future be the sole inhabi-
tants of the three forts guarding
the entrance to the Columbia.
Many citizens of Astoria, bust
ness men particularly, are taking
an interest in the matter as they
desire to see the three forts in
this vicinity fully garrisoned at
all times rather than reduced to
the smallest possible minimum
and have indicated that they will
do all in their power to keep the
troops here.

PRISON REPORTS
 HUNTER MISSING

Noah Hunter of Faulkner county is a. w. O. l. from the state penitentiarv. according to word received from pris- on officials today by Sheriff W. M. Brady.
 Hunter, who on January ? began serving a one-year sentence for mak ing whiskey, was granted furlough by Governor McRae in order to come to Conway to testify in a whiskey case in the Faulkner circuit court against E. L. Pence. He complied with the states request with such Willingness that he stole a ride on freight train in order to reach Con- way and it was largely upon his tes- tlmony that Pence was convicted and given a $200 fine.
 But it seems that after having dis charged this civic duty Hunter neg lected to return to the pen. His fur tough expired on April 9 and up to yesterday the penitentiary officials had seen nothing more of him. Hun- ter's wife and two children live at Hot Springs and the sheriff's office is of the opinion that he is probably with them.
 Pence still languishes in the Faulk- her county jail in default of payment of his $200 fine. As he is allowed credit of 75 cents for each day served in jail, Jailer J. I. Summers figures it will take him over eight months to discharge his fine by imprisonment and he will still owe the county the fine. As the county pays, the jailer S1 day board for Pence it is not finding the proposition very profitable and Judge E. L. Smith said today he thought he would give the prisoner a little exercise on the county roads.

whom regard as one Of the most careful
students Of finance in the country, and
asked him why a 10 per cent gold reserve
was necessary.

almost every book on the subject Of finance
and in none Of them does It explain the
necessity for a 10 per cent gold reserve.
