effect that Louis Kohlbagen has boon
favored with a decision in the three

H will be remembered that Kohl
hagen (lied on the land In question
about two years ago tinder the timber
and stone act, alleging as he did that
the tract was not (tf mincal or home

nothlrc more or lets than a timber

came a Portland party l.y the name of
Alvin It. Jones, who squatted upon
the land, nnd later fiUd upon It un
der the homestead act. A third entry
was also made In tho meantime, the
State of Oregon filing scrip. Realizing
that he would be forced to relax his
claim upon the land Jones caused
Kohlhuiren to be Indicted on a charge
of perjury, being acquitted when the
rasi came up for trial. Not content
Jones still went further in the matter
contesting Kohthagnfs rights be
fore the local land oftve. lu the de
cision made public this morning the
government holds that the State of
Oregon's entry was unlawful, and that

posspssion of the land. Accordingly
Kohlhagen was awarded tho tract. As
yet It is not krown as to whether or
not the case will be appealed.
