VERA CRUZ, April ti Utter chuos

the reports of refugees who continue
to arrive here, a few at a time. An
anti-lluerta revolt is unquestionably
Imminent, they said. The dictator is
declared to be drinking heavily again
and is in an irresponsible and dan
gerous condition. The people there
are beginning to realize that the
city's capture by General Villa is
seriously threatened. But what they
fear most is that General Zapata will
capture it first. Of Villa and his
men thoy are afraid, but of Zapata
and his Infinitely cruder followers
they are literally in abject terror.
The police is another source of wor
ry. Huerta is said to know that there
are Villa agents among them, but
he seems to hesitate ut any attempt
to disarm them, lest this precipilale
an outbreak on their part. There
are rumors that the Villa agents
among the police are planning to
seize the city.

Portland Oregonian: With the ar
raignment in the United States Dis
trict Court yesterday before Judge
Ilean of W. F. Mlnard and Henry J.
Harper, charged with fraudulent use
of the malls in selling "fake" loca
tions on timber lands within the Ore
gon & California laud grant, the ex
tra terms of the indictment against
these men and 111 others, six of whom
have been arrested, were made public
for the first time.
The indictment charges that Mill
ard, Harper and their associates
caused a great number of people, liv
ing in Seattle, Tacoma and other
Washington cities, to pay for value
less "locations" on the railroad land
grant lands. The scheme is outline''
as having been for some of the de
fendants to represent themselves as
agents of the railroad company. The
argument would be advanced, it Is
charged, that the compnny knew that
it was going to lose the lands In its
suit with the Government, but that
It was anxious to save the timber;
and that an option would be tuken
from the people making locations, so
that they could sell the timber at a
handsome profit.
Tne indictment further charges
that all these representations were
tulse; that the defendants knew they
were false, and that they used the
malls to further their fraudulent
scheme.

OREGON SHOULD HAVE
CONTROL OF OREGON'S
BIG NATURAL RESOURCES
Wm. Hanley, Progressive candidate
for U. S. Seuator. was In Roseburg
today, accompanied by N. D. John
son. They were being introduced by
(ieo. A. Lovejoy, of Portland, one of
the owners of the big Dumbleton
ranch at Winchester. Mr. Hanley
bus a wide acquaintance throughout
the state and is familiar with the
state's needs, lie is acquainted with
the enormous natural resources of
Oregon mid rightly believes these
should be controlled by the state and
developed ill a manner that Oregon
people will receive the benefit. This
slate is unexcelled in natural wealth,
but If this wealth is tied up by so
many restrictions from the National
capital that it cannot be developed
into a productive cond tion this bene
fit is lost to the i'ej.lv. Oregon's
control of Oregon's resources would
soon make this one of the rirhesi
stales of the Unioll.
