'Will Institute Suit In Behalf of Gov ernment to Recover Railroad Land Grant. B. D. Townsend, special assistant to the Attorney-General, yesterday tele graphed Judge Becker from Spokane that he will arrive in Portland this morningr. The purpose of Mr. Town Bend's visit to the Pacific Coast at this time is to institute suit against the Oregon California Railroad Company In the famous land-grant case. In this Important litigation, which the Attorney-General was authorized to bring, Jlr. Townsend will be associated -with Judse Becker in prosecuting the case for the Government. Mr. Townsend visited Oregon over a year ago and gathered much Important evidence pertaining to the case which was submitted to Attorney-General Bonaparte. That official took the matter up with Congress which di rected him to bring such proceedings as might be deemed necessary to se cure for the Government Its full rights. It cannot be learned what sort of suit will be brought; whether an attempt will bo made to force the railroad cor poration to dispose of all the lands at $2.50 an acre as required under the terms of the grant, or whether the Government will demand that the grant be declared canceled by reason of a violation of its conditions on the part of the railroad. Mr. Townsend left Washington about a month ago, when it was announced that he would come direct to Oregon. There has been an air of mystery sur rounding his whereabouts in the mean time. Local Government officials de clare that for two weeks prior to yes terday's telegram they had no inform ation concerning the overdue special assistant to the Attorney-General. Looking Over Business Conditions. W. Vt. Broughton, traffic manager for the Great Northern,' will reach Portland this morning for a short stay to look over business conditions. H. M. Adams, gen eral frieght and passenger agent for the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway, and William Harder, general agent here for the Great Northern, went up the line yesterday to meet Mr. Broughton and ac company him to Portland. SENATOR CbMES SECOND McCue Thinks First Duty of Legis lature Is Enacting Laws. "I think -the members of the House of Representatives would make a mis take in attempting to organize the House on Statement No. 1 or anti Statement No. 1 lines," said John C. McCue, Representative-elect from Clat sop County, and probable candidate for Speaker, last night in discussing the organization of the Legislature next Winter. "In my opinion the election of a Senator la a secondary considera tion. The great Interests of the state demand the enactment of legislation to meet its needs. The Senatorial fight should not be allowed to enter Into the organization of either branch of the Legislature. So far as the ques tion of a pledge is concerned" in the election of Senator, the Legislator elect should be governed by his own individual conscience." - Mr. McCue was a member of the laet Legislature and at the June election ran for re-election on a platform pledging himself to Bupport Senator C. W. Fulton first, last and all the time. He was elected without any ef fort. While Mr. McCue expects to be an active candidate for Speaker, he will not begin a thorough canvass in the interest of his candidacy until aiter his return from Dallas, Tex., where he goes next week to attend the Grand Lodge of Elks.

Members of the club will gather to consider the question and there will be a thorough discussion of ways and means to bring about better water transporta tion into the interior. It is hoped that an agitation will be started that will accom plish much along this line. Members of the Commercjal Club are business men directly interested in the improvement of the waterways leading to Portland and in taking up the subject they are working in their own Interests,' it is pointed out. Cheaper transportation to the large distributive territory served by Portland Jobbers is the great goal toward which the business interests of the city and state and the tributary country in neighboring states are work ing. Just what steps will be taken to night to bring about the opening of the rivers Is not yet known but the subject will be discussed fully and a plan prob ably worked out that will result in better water transportation throughout the in terior. The meeting tonight will be called to or3er at S o'clock. The committee in charge of the gathering is made up of the following well-known club members: Henry Hahn, S. M. Mears, T. D. Honey man, O. M.

Fair and Walton, both of whom are old men, were thrown into the gutter and sustained serious injuries about the head and shoulders. Walton will recover, but Fair is subject to heart failure and It is feared that the shock will prove fatal. Doctors tonight declared the patient's condition precarious. The late James G. Fair left his brother $50,000 in his will. Fair's Brother Badly Hurt. SAN JOSE Cal.. June 29. Andrew Fair, brother of the late James G. Fair and uncle of Mrs. Willie K. Vanderbilt, Jr.. and Mrs. Hermann Oelrlchs, was prob ably fatally injured yesterday in a street car accident on the outskirts of this city. Fair In company with W. A. Walton, his FISHER GIVEN GOLD MEDAL President of Travelers' Protective Association Is Honored. As large in point of attendance as any this year was the regular quar terly meeting of the Travelers' Pro tective Association at the Commercial Club Saturday night. A number of Im portant matters were discussed. President Willis Fisher and Secre-. tary J. C. Gibson provided a complete surprise to the members of the Asso ciation in the form of music and re freshments. An interesting feature of the meeting was the presentation by W. B. Glafke to President Fisher of a handsome gold medal. This was cent from the National office of the T. P. A. in recognition 'of the unusual growth in membership of the local branch during the Incumbency of President Fisher. A great deal of enthusiasm was aroused by the announcement that C. p. Frazer, a member of the local organization, had been elected vice president of the National association. Mr. Frazer is attending the meeting of the National association at the present time. President Fisher outlined plans for establishing permanent headquarters of the association in this city. The plans call for the leasing of one or more floors in a down-town building which will be equipped to suit the traveling men.

About "Mucho Dinero Innnne Boarder at the County Jail Thinks Dins Sent Him Five Checks, and Tells About Them in Castillan Tongue. UCHO dinero! Mucho dinerol Mucha siesta! Muchas casas! Cinco cheques del Presldente de Mejlco! To no qulero dinero!" Beating the air with his arms In Imita tion of an aggressive political orator, Leislo Lona entertained the lodgers at Sheriff Stevens' free boarding-house all day Sunday and Monday with a rambling discourse, of which the above is only the introduction. The Mexican believes that the President of Mexico has sent him a large sum of money, five checks, and in his ravings builds air castles, with "puertas, ventanas, muchas ventanas, y porticos." He informs his fellow-boarders that he does not speak "Ingles," but asserts in Spanish that he tried to. cash the Ave checks In Olympia, Wash. As a result, he says, he was placed in jail. "Yo no trabajo. Yo tengo dinero, cinco mil, diecisiete pesos." I do not work, I have money, J3017, he says. After being ex amined yesterday noon, he was sent to the asylum. $2000 FOR SjjORT STORIES Sunset Magazine Is offering $2000 in prizes for stories.

It ought to be worth something to you to be able to get absolutely fresh, city dressed, home-grown meats these warm days. You get them at any of Smith's three markets. Meat that is brought to the city in ice-cars from other parts of the country, and then placed in cold storage until some butcher takes them to his market, cannot taste the same, cannot give you health and strength like the sweet, fresh, wholesome Oregon meats dressed in Smith's city abattoir.
