O.D. TAYLOR ARRESTED

     Rev. O. D. Taylor of this city was arrested Saturday afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Kelly on a requisition from the governor of the state of Michigan, and turned over immediately to Mr. Parker Owens, an officer of Saginaw, Mich. The crime alleged is obtaining money under false pretenses, and undoubtedly grow out of the reverend gentleman's connection with the sale of property in North Dalles, Wash.
     The excitement after the arrest was intense, and everyone was anxious to know the crime for which he had been placed in durance vile by the officer.  It was managed very quietly, no one knowing anything about it, or the least inkling of what was going to happen, until the reverend gentleman was in custody of the officer from Saginaw.  Deputy Sheriff Kelly and Mr. Parker Owens drove in a buggy out to Mr. Taylor's residents, read the warrant to him, and he accompanied them to town, after changing his clothes and bidding his family good-by.  Mr. Owens immediately placed him in jail, and sent word for a horse and buggy to be at his disposal.  An attorney was consulted by Mr. Taylor, who pronounced the requisition papers in regular order, and the officer drove away with his prisoner, presumably to Celilo or some other point farther east where he boarded the train for Saginaw.  The eagerness to leave town on the part of Mr. Owens, it is supposed, was because he feared habeas corpus proceedings which would detain him and his prisoner several days.  The charge was obtaining money under false pretenses, and the complaint was sworn to by Joseph Seemer. Mountaineer.
     The Chronicle says the officer was from Michigan who arrested Taylor was about to apply handcuffs, but was persuaded not to by Deputy Sheriff Kelly and others, that he refused to allow Taylor can to consult his family, his attorney, or change his clothing, but taking him by the collar, marched him to a wagon at the courthouse door and drove rapidly out of town in the direction of Sherman county.
