TOL- IVII. IEDF0BD, JACKSON CODNTT, IHEGON, FRIDAY, JA DARY "6. 1905 " HO. I. INDICTED BY FEDERAL JURY. The Federal grand jury on Satur day, December 31st, returned indict- '.. menta against Senator Mitchell, Bln- 1 ger Hermann and George Borouaou. -Mitchell and Hermann were indicted jointly and are charged with having "conspired with all of the defendants heretofore indicted to defraud the government out of land Bituated in -township 11 aouth, range 7 east. SorenBon is indicted for. having offered a bribe of $5000 to District At 'tnruov 'Hull on March 28th last, when the indictment against the conspira tors who were couvioted in the recent trial was pending in the Federal court. The Mitchell indictment alleges that John 11 t Mitchell and Binger Her mann did, on January 2d, 1902, un lawfully and feloniously . conspiro to gether aud with each other and with S. A.'. D. Puter, Horace G. lvlcKinley, D. W.. Turpley,, Ehinia L. Watson, Salmon B, OrniBby, Clark B. Looiuis, W-Ullam H. Davis and others, to do fraud the government of the United - StatoB out of a portion of its public lands, Bituated In township 11 south, of range 7 east, by means of forged and false affidavits and fictitious per sons, and that in the furtherance of such conspiracy S. A. D. Puter did, on March 9, 1902, pay to John H. Mitchell the sum of 82000 to secure his influence with Binger Hermann, then commissioner of the general lend ofiico at Washington, and that in furtherance of the conspiruoy Mitchell diotated and caused to be prepared the Puter affidavits, knowing hem to be false. The indictmont against Hermann alleges that, aeting on the suggestion and the wish of Senator Mitchell, and innfluenoed .. . by him, knowing that the transactions .were unlawful and felonious, Binger Hermann used - his power as oommissoner of the gen eral land' office to expediate twelve claims in township' 11-7, and had them passed to patent when he knew them ; to be illegal and not aooording to the requirements of the law. The Sorenaon indiotment alleges that, oh March 28, 1904, George Sor enso offered John B. Hall, dietriot attorney for the- United States In Oregon, the sum of (6000 with iutonf, to influence the said JJohn H. Hall in his official capacity when acting on the indictments returned ugaluet S: A. D Puter, Horace G, Mcliinley, stl. "If an indiotment has been returned against me,1 says Senator Mitchell, "1 am prepared to meet It before a trial jury immediately and in this , oouneotlon, 1 defy tho .proseoutiug officer to produce against me one par ticle of evidence, worthy of a mo ment's belief. ' . .. v. 1 deuouueo this prosecution against mo as the re sult of a most damnable and coward, ly conspiracy, 'in which Secrotaiy Hitchcock and this man Heney aro the chief oouspiratorsY ' Binger Hermann says: "I believed the 'law had been complied with. I had n l acquaintance with the lauds, no intimacy or association with auy of those to be benefitted, no interest in the transactions, direct or indi rect, and had no promise, no consid eration, no: inducement, and 1' scorn auy suggestions that 1 ever hesitated to stand by my sworn' duty in this or any other trust imposed upon me. The indictmeut roturned against me is the result of the basest of conspira cies and malicious persecution'. ' ' It israllegod that United States Dis trict Attorney Hall has been a stumb ling block in the path of.the prosecut--tiou ; that he has .tried to obstruct tbo course of the investigation now bbing carried on before' the Federal grand jury ; that he has attempted to pre vent certain witnesses being brought before tho grand jury and that he Jms in the past shielded and recently, has attempted to shield those who were supposed to be guilty of crimes - against the government. : Francis J; Heney 'says: -Mr. Hall -. was removed by my personal request made to the president and or reasnis ' which to me were good and sufficient. Oilier than that I do not wish to dis cuss the matter at this time other than tigsay that it was upon my own personal request and recomnjeu'datlor that Mr. Hall Was re-appointed on tb - day following the November electict ifntl atithat time I had absolute faitt in bis Joyaltj to tho cause of the gcv ; --. armneit, I, thought it but fair to him t.h1tt he shoul.l receive assurance ih of continuing in' ollioo, knowing as 1 k did, tn' path wntcn the government v wouk:. lir.ke In the land-fraud divelrp- I Ml KVUl. A Serious Mlxup. . Lakeview Kiamluur. Last Sunday, everyone that eould get sleighs were' out riding and some who 03tud not get sleighs rgged up bob-sleds, and It was one of these poorly oouBtruoted contrivances that came very bear being the oauae of several children getting killed. A number of young folks from ten to fourteen years of age, with Kelton Unuther as driver, were out in bobsled on whloh they bad placed large box. In crossing a ditoh uori. of the school house the box, which was not securely fastened to t le sled, slipped forward (between the boises, and dumped the whole load of young sters under the horses' feet. Young Guuthbr, with rare presence of miud, brought the team to a standstill aud prevented a runaway ..which would, no doubt, have resulted In several of 'the orowd being dragged to death. Gazelle George, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. O. George, waB kicked down and fell uuder the frightened horse, which stood and kicked her several times. When the girl was rescued from her perilous; position she was unconsoious for several hours and it was feared that she would not recover. Charley Barry, Jack Barry 'bboii, was kicked in the face and had his nose broken and was severely bruised up. Jim Judge was'kickod in theaoe and Clny Pouland was kicked ; on the leg, the latter two were painfully but not seriously hurt. At last reports Ga zebo George was Rotting along nicely. Survey to Come Here. The incorporators of the Medford and Crater Lake railroad havo . in structed Engineer "J. A. MoCall to extend the survey he made from Butto Falls on to this , city. This insures the terminus of the road for Medford and. whatever, is ; dbhe on tho road will be done with this oity as the starting point. y Now the proposition is to have work commenced on the road. To do this capital is required, To interest oapi tal it must be shown to- the owners thereof that the venture will be a remunerative one. That should be easily done. , On the one band' there' "are 'many thousand aorea of ? productive agricul: tural land through which thi. road will pass that are not now worked to anywhere near full capacity, simply because tbe people find-jt difficult to reach the market witrperishable pro-' duote. Produce can be transported UUUU1CUB UL OlkAVB UJf 1 U Jl Ob IWDink than it can be handled a dozen miles in wauona. Then again there are un- counted -millions of feet of -lumber standing in tbe foothills of the CaB-1 cados waiting for the lumberman's ax. The same conditions as those apply-1 ing to agricultural products apply to ! the timber lack of transportation. The tapping of this huge timber bolt. ! the shipment of tte lumber to and;tls lsiaua.. through Medford, the natural increase iu population brought about by these big enterprises, all will contribute to the growth and prosperity of Medford.

The gentleman met with' very enthusiastic support by tho farmers living along the river bottom, and n number of- them sig nified their willingness to take power from the Condor Co.

THE SIEGE is e: Port Arthur, whose hills for months have run red with the blood of the bravest of two warlike nations, has at ust succumbed to tbe fierce" tenaoity f the Japanese attack. Geueral toessel, most stubborn in carrying out the will of bis sovereign, has seen the advanoe of the besieging army gain in momentum and energy, until to hold out longer would have been a orime against humanity. The conditions of tbe surrender are not yet known,' but in all quarters it is anticipated that they are such Hi an honorable soldier may accept from a hrave and viotorious enemy. At 9:45 Monday night the commis sioners completod signing of, tbe capitulation agreement. Both armies had suspended hostilities five hours eailier. The oity of Port Arthur was occupied by the Japanese Tuesday. -. The authorities at St. Petersburg in the abseuoe of direct official notice from General StooseBl that Port. Ar thur has surrendered, have 'not per mitted tho news to becomo public Emperor Nicholas is in the south of Russin, and his ministers are for the time beiug in the dark as to what; dlspatohes haveJJ been. sent, to' him from the front. Tokio is the scene of rejoicing, people find ng in the outcome oompensatiou for all tho sacrifice of life and money that was entailed in the. ten months' siege.

Frideger, became another addition to the colony and still later, Father Frederick and Mother Luolnda ar-' rived and located on the Merley ranch. So the colony now numbers thirteen. All are well pleased with tbe Rogue river valley and its genial climate, which' is quite a contrast with the climate of the good old .buck eye state. i On last Christmas the colony were gathered together at tbe home of F. Frideger and had a very enjoyable old-time chat- of goue-by days spent in the "Buokeyo" land aud partook of a bountiful dinner, suoh as "Buck eye" ladies are amply qualified to prepare. Next on New Year's day they gathered at the home of the father of tho colony in Harbaugh City, with the result of another en. joyableg, time. When , dinner was served remarks were made of having lettuce, onions, .parsley aud cabbage plaoed on ..the table, whloh. were gathered in the garden just before dinner, which was something un kniown In "Buckeye" stae at thh time of the year.
