der Trial.
Canyon City. June 23. Great In
terest Is being taken here in the trial
0f Deputy Sheriff Casaday who is
charged with complicity in the kil
ling of Ollla Snyder last December.
The entire week thus far has been
consumed by the attorneys in secur
ing a jury and it is probable that the
12 necessary men will not be secured
before next Monday or Tuesday. There
' are now 11 Jurors In the box but It
is expected that the defense and pro
secution will each use some of their
premptory challenges and materially!
reduce the number. ,
The regular venire of men was soon
exhausted and .two special yenlres
of 40 men each havoeen summoned.
The attorneys are now working on
' the second bunch of 40 men. The work
is progressing slowly and consider
able time Will be 'consumed before
he Jury is ..finally completed. The
-state has used two premptory chal
lenges and the defense five. ; ;
Although there is great interest In
the trial and many people from out
fide points are in Canyon, there is
very little feeling for or against the
prisoner. The peopel are Inclined to
let the law take its course and it is
i.ot likely that there will be any dem
onstration if Casaday is found guilty
or If he is freed. ,
' There Is " considerable speculation
as to the evidence against Casady.
It is known thet.Ben Hinton Is now.
being b fmght-here and it is expected
that the prosecution will place him
'; on the stand against Casaday. The
cuestlon is, whether or not the jury
will convict Casaday on the evidence
which Hinton. has produced.
tells of the worn nroeress.
After the meeting held by the ex- f
ecntive board of the campaign com-j
mlttee of the Eastern Oregon Normal
school, a most gratifying announce
ment was given. The committee, af
ter making a canvas of the returns of
the petitions for the referendum to !
determine whether the Eastern Ore-j
gon Normal Bchool be maintained,
found that they had received 12,000
names' on the petition.
Thi9 number exceeds the number
originally set by the committee by
nearly one-third, and it was extremely
gratifying to secure not only the 12,
000 already received, but also to learn
that there are several hundred more
on their way to the committee for
filing. - ...
George W. Proebstel was selected
by the committee to represent the
board, and to file the peltlona with
the Secretary of State at Salem. Mr.
Proebstel left for Salem last, Tues
day with the paper. Those petitions
coming In later will be filed also, and
from all that can be learned, It is
probable that the total number of sig
natures will reach as tfgh as 13,000.'
Twenty counties of the Btate were
represented Jn the petitions received,
located In different ' sections of the
state. - "

The Addition with Character
When all of the proposed improvements have
been completed in Ladd Park, Portland will have
no, more beautiful spot within its limits. Ladd
Park exceeds any of the city's parks in grandeur,
and now it is proposed to improve it with scenic
driveways and walks, to enlarge the present natu
ral lake and to create botanical gardens there.
Do you realize that property fronting on or
adjacent to any high-grade public park is always
considered the most desirable for residence pur
poses? Do you realize that it is an ideal invest
ment for the simple reason that it is desirable and
that property of this sort is very limited in area,
and because there are only a few public parks lo
cated in the residence districts of Portland?
Do you realize that Ladd Park lies in the heart
.of Laurelhurst, and that values in Laurelhurst lots
in the neighborhood of this park will advance very
high as soon as the proposed improvements for
the park have been completed? and do you real
ize that the prices of lots in Laurelhurst, close to
this park, are at present as low as lots in some of
the less improved sections of Portland which are
much farther out from town and on only one car
Jine? ,
Do you realize that, under the building re
striction, houses fronting on this public park must
cost at least from $4000 to. 7500? : Others not front
ing onthe park, but in this section, must cost from
$3500 up. '
. , Realize this, if you can, and you will then real
ize the exceptional opportunity which is offered
you for investment or home purposes in Laurel
hurst, being improved with asphalt streets from
, 28 to 48 feet wide, cement walks, nine-foot parking
strips, shade trees, , handsome cluster lights and
large water, sewer and gas mains, and with this
beautiful natural park in its center, is today the
most desirable residence property in Portland- '
Bear in mind that all of Laurelhurst South of East
Glisan Street is still selling at original prices
' ','.-.' '.'; ; V','V'.J': 'A;.:; ::"-':'."':'y '" '':V;'V' ''';'' ::
The prices on this section have not been rais cd. They are at present lower than what is being "
asked for lots in other residence sections of the city not nearly, so -well located or improved,' and '
with poorer car service.
