(From Oregon Dally Journal.)
The best part of the Oregon mili

300,000 of the total of 500,000 acres
is to be thrown open Immediately for
settlement and colonization. The
Oregon Valley Land company, com
posed of eaBtern people, with Port
land headquarters at 830 Chamber
of Commerce, has perfected a plan of
sale of llio lands In tracts compris
ing 11,992 tracts, varying from 10
ucreB with irrigation to 1000 acres
of grazing land.
The company is headed by R. J.
Martin of Kansas City, J. H. Borders
is secretary and M. C. Shimp Is their
treasurer. These men are the same
who successfully put the largest tract
ever opened in Colorado on the mar
ket last year in the San Luis valley,
and built an irrigation dam 80 feet
high, storing water for irrigation of.
a portion of that tract desired for In
tensified farming.
Clcur Title to Land.
H. A. Hunter, president of the
Oregon Military Road Land Grant
company, former owners of the en

land yesterday on business connected
with the formal conveyance of title
to the new company. At the Port
land hotel last evening, he said:
"The grant, which extends from
the-Klamath Indlun reservation to
Lakeview, and thence through Har
ney and Malheur counties to the
Snake river; should not be confused
In the public mind with one or two
railroad grants that have litigation
over titles. This title to the Oregon
military road grant Is absolutely un
questioned.
"It has twice been adjudicated by
the supreme court of the United
States, which has decided that Its
validity cannot be challenged. The
grant was passed from the govern
ment many years ago without any
strings to It as to . its sale, price -'at
hfch It should be sold, or auy other
somplication.
The lands comprise alternate sec
tions in a strip 12 miles wide
ihrough Lake and Harney counticB.
and a portion of Klamath county.
These lands are to be divided Into
.".974 10-acr,e farms, 4OS0 20-acre

The contracts for farms sold to
settlers are certified by the Pioneer
Trust Company of Kansas City. The
uniform price of ench farm, regard
less of size, Is to be $200. ,
Each 10-acre tract Is to have 5
acres of Irrigated land. The sum of
(200,000 to be held in trust by the
Pioneer Trust company will be de
voted to construction of an Irriga
tion system taking water from the
Cottonwood river to Irrigate about
30,000 acres In the Goose Lake val

The colonization of the grant is
guaranteed to be complete by the

MARSHFIELD, Or., July 18 One
of the most destructive fires in the
history of Coos Bay occurred at
North Bend this morning at about 1
o'clock In the Clark Woolen MUIb
building. The flames had gained such
headway before water could be got to
-be building that It was destroyed,
with all its contents. The structure

and three stories high. There was
also a large boiler and engine-room

STRONG BOX FOUND
Safe Burglar; of I. Abraham's
Store Recalled
CONTENTS CHIEFLY PAPER
OistoTerj Made by J. I. Hewitt at
His Faro 3 Dies Icnth ot City
Oilers no Cine
The strong box taken from the
safe cracked by burglars in I. Ab
raham's store In this city during the
early morning of October 31, of last
year, was found Sunday by James
Hewitt, on his farm on the Win
chester road, three miles north of
Roseburg. The box was half btfried
endways in the ground, the exposed
end attracting Mr. Hewitt's attention
as he. crawled through a stretch of
wire fence. His curiosity aroused,
Mr. Hewitt examined the box, and
some papers which It contained re
vealed to him the exact nature of hlB
discovery. He brought the box to
town and delivered It to Sheriff Fen-,
ton There are no circumstances con
nected with the And that furnishes a
clow to the identity of the burglars.
That Mr. Hewitt's farm is close to
the S. P. R. R. track, however,
might warrant the belief that the
cracksmen are transients and made
ihelr get-away on the train. '
Tbe strong box, which la made of
the most durable steel, was blown
ipen, and tbe remnant of the fuse
used Js still protruding from a hole
lrllled In the top. It had contained
about $15 tn money, some Rochdale
crade checks and a quantity ot notes
ind county warrants, the total value
)f which ran well Into four figures.
Whon found, the box still held the
notes and about one-halt ot the war
rants, .all powder burned at the
edgea. - After examining the paper
today, Mr. Abraham expressed the
opinion that the burglars carried
away. In addition to the money and
trade checks, such wnrrants as were
perhaps not scorched in order that
they might be used without creating
suspicion.
The discovery of the stolen box
will lessen Mr. Abraham's loss to an
appreciable extent, as all the paper
which It yielded Is valid regardless of
its marred appearance.

At the regular meeting of the
Roseburg city council tonight the
formal ordinances will be read au
thorizing the 18 blocks of street pav

Orcutt, and will doubtless pass the
first mid second readings tonight. As
provided by law they will then lny

two weeks hence, when they will
come up for the third reading and
final passage. This street paving
matter is now entirely In the hands
of the council, the bonds being al
ready voted and not a single protest
against the paving having been filed.
it is generally understood that the
councllmen are unanimously. In favor
of the paving aud even it they were
not it Is their duty now to go ahead
with the work as rapidly as possible,
as the people and property owners
have expressed themselves as being
very strongly in favor of It. As stated
above, the ordinances will doubtless
be finally passed upon their third
reading at tbe regular council meet
ing on August 3th. Immediately
thereafter, and at that name meet
ing, the elty recorder should be In
structed to call for bids for doing
the paving. Thus In less than a
month from today tho entire matter
would be in the hands of tho con
tractors and ready for the actual
work of paving to begin. They
would then have two or three months
before the rainy season would Intt-r-tere

WAIF -FINOS A, (iOOU HOME.
llaby Boy Found at . A. Slgnall
ness' Resldenre Saturday.
About five o'clock last Saturday
morning a baby boy about seven
months old was found In a clothes
basket on the back porch of the resi
dence of Mr. and Mrs. O. A. Slgnall
ness In North Roseburg. Among the
meager effects found with the waif
was a note written as follows: .
"Dear Madam: Please give me a
home, papa Is dead and mama, can't '
keep me. I was born the 16 of Dec; '.
1907."
Nothing at all was found that
would give any trace as to tbe Idcn
tity ot the youngster and no one waa
seen or heard about tbe place, it ev.
dontly having been left there before
daybreak.
Tho child's clothing was scanty
threadbare and of coarse material, '
evidencing the extremo poverty of
the mother. The little form was al
so sadly emaciated from lac of pro
per nourishment, but It otherwise
sppeara bright and In good, health.
Two or three other pieces of cloth
ing were found with It In a Btnall
und much ' worn hand satchel. A
nursing bottle half filled, with sour
milk was found beside the child,
i'he little one was almost chilled by '
the cool morning air. -.
Immediately upon finding It Mrs.
Slgnallness gave the child every pos
sible care and It is already showing
a regaining plumpness. If no trace
of the child's mother can be tound,
which i now seems unlikely, legal '
adoption of It by Mr. and Mrs. Slg
nallness will probably be made be
fore long, as they are excellent peo
ple, owning a very considerable
amount ot properly aud have no chil
dren of their own.
When seen by a Review represent
ative last Saturday in regard to the .
finding ot the child Mr. Slgnallness ;
explained that he thought his wife
was Just playing a joke on him and
that Mrs. S. had just taken the child
lo keep for a fow days for someone
who had gone away for a short time,
but today ho said that upon further
Investigation he found the waif had
been left at their door as above stat
ed. From the depths ot poverty it
lias now -found an excellent home.
