a aU-sbooter and 'an unflinching de
termination, Mrs. Ella Watt, grand
organizer of the Order of Artisans,
this morning held at bay an Oregon
Electric construction crew which
'sought to cut down a big maple tree
in front of her residence.
The tree stands Just inside the curb
line at the corner of High and Mill
streets, where the Oregon Electric Is
constructing Its new "Y." The curve
of the "Y" encroaches upon the curb
llnei and, in anticipation of damage
to the tree, Mrs. Watt had appealed
to the city park board for protection
to her property. The park board no
tified the company not to cut the tree.
but bright and early this morning a
gang of men began preparations to
use the ax and saw.
Without hesitation. Mrs. Watt
armed herself and went to the rescue
Upon her appearance the men desist

DIVOItCK FROM TWO MUM.
HILLSUORO, Or., July 10. A
unique feature in Circuit court cir
cles In this county Is the two com
plaints filed by Bagley Hare where
in one woman, Mary Sims. Is suing
two different defendanta for divorces.
The woman in the case is Mary Sams,
and her first suit is against Gardner
Sams, who she married In Dayton,
Wash., In 1S81. She alleges that thev
lived together until 1895, when Sams
deserted her at Walla Wa:ia, after
telling her that their marriage aits
Invalid, because he had not compiled
with the law In procuring a license,
and because the officiating minister
was not duly ordained and did not
make proper return. Her second
complaint is against Rimer Nolan,
whom she married in Umatilla coun
ty late In 1S96, believing her forn.er
marriage void. She aaya that after
her marriage to Nolan the 'Irat hus
band had the two arrested for big
amy, of which charge she and N dun
were acquitted. During these years,
the complaint states, she was tx
poor to get her cases into oour'.. Old
she asks for legal separation from
both men and the custody of it minor
child by Nolan. She tlnda her firs,
marriage, to Sams, waa valid, and de
sertion Is her cause of complaint.

WILL C'ONTIXl'E PROSECUTION.
PORTLAND. July 13. Continued
prosecution of pending Oregon land
fraud cases will be the program of
the government according to Tracy
C. Becker, special assistant to the attorney-general,
who has returned
from San Francisco, where he has
been in conference with Francis J.
Heney since the close of the Jamea
Henry Booth trial a week ago. While
Mr. Becker would not discuss the sit
uation at any length, he ia authority
tor the statement that these trials
will be held, beginning with the R.
A. Booth conspiracy case next Thurs
day. It is the evident Intention or
the government finally to give the
various defendants the trials some of
them have been demanding ever
since the Indictments were returned
over three years ago.
There Is not much to be said,"
replied Mr. Becker yesterday, when
asked the result of his conference
with Mr. Heney. "These land-fraud
cases will De prosecute vte win
begin next Thursday with the trial of
R. A. Booth and others on a charge
of conspiracy as was arranged be
fore I went to San Francisco."
Has Mr. Heney altered his plans
regarding the land-fraud cases?" was
asked.
It Is the Intention of Mr. Heney
to take the part in the further trial
of those cases that he repeatedly has
suld he would. He will come to
Portland personally to try tue case
against Hermann and also to retry
Williamson whenever these defend
ants are ready to go to trial."
We are still working on the
case, responuea sir. tsecaer, wuen
asked It he could tell when the gov
ernment would Institute its suit
against the Oregon California rail
road company In the land grant case.
During the day Mr. Becker held a
conference with B. D. Townsend,
special assistant to the attorney-general,
and with whom he will be asso
ciated in the prosecution of the land
grant suit.
The announcement by Mr. Becl cr,
following a conference with Mr. He
ney, that the land-fraud trials are to
continue la taken to Indicate a de
termination by the government to
dispose of these cases not later than
next October, Including the Hermaun
and Williamson trials. Confirms
tlon of this program of action bv the
government la also found in the dis
patches from Washington last week
announcing that T. B. Vctihauaen,
former special Inspector, hut now
serving aa special agent and attorney
to the general land office, wo M l be
dismissed October 1, next. Ac sort
ing, to these dispatches, th re'na-
tlon of Mr. Neuhausen would be
ther prosecution of the land-fraud
trials snd for that reason no attempt
la to be made to oust him until Oc
tober. In the meantime the government
probably will be able to conclude the
trial of these cases or otherwise dis
pose of them, for there long has been
a rumor to the effect that some of
tne 10 or 18 untried cases, In which
Heney returned indictments In 191). '.
will never be brought to trial. It
was expected that Heney would dis
miss a number of these cases when
he was in Portland in February to
try the John H. Hall case. It Is now
surmised that Indictments over sev
eral of the defendants will be held
only until the government's prosecu
tor comes to Portland this fall to
tackle the Hermann and Williamson
cases, when some of the minor cases
will be dropped.
EXPLORES THE INTERIOR.
PORTLAND, July . Complet
ing perhapa the longest and most
thorough tour of Oregon since the
old pioneer days, H. A. Hunter, of
Minneapolis, and a party of a asoci
al es returned to Portland yesterday.
They traversed more than 800 miles
In Southern Oregon by wagon and
on horseback.
The party made a thorough atudy
of geographical, climatic and other
conditions of the vast unknown area
comprising the southern portion of
this state, instruments were used
to test not only the soil, but climatic
and atmospheric conditions at var
ious altitudes and places. According
to Mr. Hunter, the unknown, uncul
tivated empire of the aouthern
portion of this state offera greater
opportunitlea than any other part of
America.
The party traveled the old mili
tary land grant road from the east
ern borders of Harney county to the
City of Eugene. Not In years,
perhapa alnce the day when the ox
team and pioneer wended their way
Into the wilderness, has the famous
old route been followed more closely.
For yesrs Mr. Hunter waa con
nected with the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company in ita land de
partment. It la said that he haa sold
more land than any man of bis yeara
in thia country. He and bis assocl
atea are now arranging a huge col
onization scheme for Southern
Oregon.
The company he represents has
secured possession of the entire area
of land known as the old Oregon
Military Land Grant. The tract
comprises an area of considerably
more than 300,000 acres, and It waa
for the purpose of perfecting plans
for the colonization and settlement
of this enormous district that Mr.
Hunter and his party made the ted
ious trip. In connection with the
plan of colonization the company
has opened headquartera in this city,
nnd offices In various large Eastern
cities.
'We left the train at Austin, In
the extreme eastern part of the
state," said Mr. Hunter last night.
We traveled for more than 800
miles along the old route of the
Oregon Military Land Grant road.
And after, traversing that section of
the state, I want to tell you people
of Oregon that you actually don't
know what you have. An area big
ger than some statea, practically un
settled and Just as it waa when the
Creator made It, offers more oppor
tunities than any tract of land I
have ever seen.
'There are grazing lands, fruit
lands, mineral possibilities, and, in
deed, everything that man could
desire. In all that section, especial
ly In the vicinity of Lakeview and
the Goose Lake valley, we encoun
tered numerous surveying partlea.
Railroada are doing an extensive
amount of skirmish work in South
ern Oregon and are evidently pre
paring to attempt to get the better
of each other in opening up that big
territory."
