STATE TO GAIN 840,000
THROUGH BONANZA LAND
The state of Oregon is in a fair way
to gain $10,000 through state lieu land
selections made several years ago and
concerning which an investigation has
Just been closed at Lakeview. In 1002
the stato made selections aggregating
5OU0 acres in a solid tract near IJonau
ica, Klamath county. The selections
were mode at the instance of persons
who made application to the stato to
purchase the land at the prevailing
price, $2.50 per aero. As the haw upon
which the land was selected was uncer
tain, the matter was held up for several
years in tho land department at Wash
ingtou.
When other land-fraud transactions
were uiub'r invest igat ion, State Land
Agent Oswald West investigated the ap
plicants who hail applied for this f000
acres, atid he found some suspicious
looking circumstances. When invest!
gated, the applirants became delinquent
in their payments, (inventor Chamber
lain moved the cancellation of the cer
tificates. A lot of homestead filings
were made upon the same land, and the
homesteaders proceeded to question the
state's right to the land under its se
lect ions.
In the meantime Mr. West had per
fected the title by subst it ut ing good
base for bad, whore there were defects,
and the state's right as to -4000 acre
was made safe as against the home
steaders, some of whom, it in believed,
were more nnxitniH to get the land for
it- timber than for its value as home
sites. The state stands upon its record
title, which is prior to the hoiu'siad
fili tins.
COMMUNICATIONS.

DEVELOPING PROSPECTS
IN WINDY HOLLOW
The gilt edged literally gilt edged!
prospects in the Windy Hollow hills
have at last passed into the control of
real live mining men. who have money
with which the develop them.
J. J, 4ii'ily, a. Nevada mining man,
novornl months ago prospected and sain
pled the Jumbo, Hut to and other claims
of the Loft us group. Ho liked it. all so
well that he interested other Nevadft
mining men, T. H. Oliver of Spokane,
M. 1(. Jennings of Ibiflalo and Marcus
Oilliam, and returned to Windy Hollow
pevernl weeks ago. The parly looked
over the ground, sampled it thorough
ly, and had assays made. Then they
went to work to acquire control of the
Jumbo and Hulte groups. Recently a
deal was consummated by which they
liave entire control of those two groups.
They are sinking on the Butte and are
highly pleased with Ihe showing. Last
wei-k a b-dge was struck, and the ore
in places is literally plastered with gold,
way the Lakeview (h-rnld.
Whilst in Xevnda, these gentbnien
snmpled many of the famous mining
camps, including the famous Ran'hide
group, and they state most emphati
cally that nothing in nil tlmtw ramps
could compare with tho proect iu
Windy Hollow.
These gentlemen did noi talk f'r pub
Hcation; they are not wiling stock, the
proposition is not a stork affair; tlo-y
are simply mining on their own Recount
and have nothing to sell or boom.
LAND LOCATOR HELD FOR
FRAUDULENT LOCATIONS
Information from Crescent City, f'ul.,
Is to the i Afoot that (ieorge W. Taylor,
known h-r. as a land locator, has b'en
held then. under bail of $4000 on a
felony chaise of obtaining money under
faNe pretences in fraudulently locating
land se. ki rs on Iel Norte county tim
ber laud. His examination took place
before a just ire of the p-ace in Cres
cent City on the 11th. it is said the
nut horities there have evidence that
Taylor fraudulently located 12 erons
and that they "now have him where he
cannot Ho any more def rnuding for

done considerable crooked work in Cur
ry county, nnd there hat aUo been com
plaint of his work in Pouglas county.
a jot. and unable to get work was to
do. His reply was "find knows; T
don t."
Tn looking over tho Medford Pnily
Mail of the lth I find that the editor
of the Mail has a remedy for hard
times. Here it is:
"Say, you knocker. Does it do your
self or anybody else any good to whine
about hard times, ral or prospective!
And would it require less effort or be a
less agreeable task to help the fellows
who are trying to build up instead of
tear down? Good times aud bad are the
result largely of the temperament of
the people, who seem to take spells
of being grouchy aud despondent for
no apparent reason. It is to offset these
periods that the philosophers of good
cheer and good times form their "boost-
" clubs and "don't worry" societies
-and you ought to bo initiated into
both before vou become a chronic nial- i
ontent. ' '
From the best information obtaina
ble at the present time, there aro from
l.nno.noo to o.OOO.OOO men nut of cm
ployment in the Cuited States fjuite
a large number tn become "grouchy'
ull at tho same time, "fur no apparent
reason." Xot long ago' Mr. Rockefel
ler predicted that there would be 10,.
OOO.nOtl of men out of employment dur
ing !uu7 and MtW in the Tinted States.
He did not give ns the reason that the
men would become "grouchv,' but that
ftidustrioR would close down.
Tho 4.000,1(00 or fl.000.00n nut of em
ployment today did not ijuit work on
their own account. They tpiit as' ftlitnn
would have it hevause t he owners of
t he different industries in the I'nited
States became " grouchy " and shut, up
shop. Some of the bankers got
grouchy' and closed their banks. Itli-
ron says to the hungry and jobless
man. don t "knock; if you are hun
gry, but "boost boost," no matter it
your wife and children iire without
rood and hungry "without any apparent
rensou. ' "Join the Pon t W orrv so
iety. " He should also have advised
them to join the Immunity Ralh club
and they would come out pure as AVas
son ea'nvon water.
Now, Mr. jobless man and men in
general, what do vou think of a man.

An Interesting Phase of the Temper
ance Question.
One interesting and peculiar phase
of the temperance ouest ion lies in the
fact that when certain leaders in Jack
son count v a lew vears ago were sac
rificing time and money and popular
ilv even in tin- interests of what thev
it that, t inie believed tn he a proper
and ueerssnrv work, t In same persons
who now pose as leaders in the move
ment were offering their ridicule and
abuse to those leaders in the most un
s'tnriug manner. And ministers of the
gospel even, as well as lay members
f the churches, went so far as to stab
iu the back men who had given their,
life to the "cause."
If tomorrow the tide were suddenly
to turn and the popular vote on the
temperance quest ion swing to its for
mer majority level for the maintenance
of tint saloon, you would witness the
;i musing spectacle of a general stam
pede ou thi part of t hesn pseudo-re
formers back to a favor-begging posi
tion. Why? Itecause tho weaklings as
a rule Hwing always with majorities.
thinking thereby to be always on the
popular and money making side of the
piestion. It is easy to go with the
Trowd. It takes a man of strength to
resist the crowd.

LOCATE TIMBER CLAIMS
UPON ABANDONED MINES
Myrtle CreeK Mail.
Through a desire to gain possession
of valuable timber land, much of which
will bo good for grazing and agrtcnl-
lural purxises when cleared of the brush
and timber, some' ."i different partus
have located claims in the vicinity of
the rdd North Myrtle mining region
during the past year. A number of
these claims are on nnsurveyeil land,
while others are on land h- ld as mineral
when the gold fever once singed through
t he veins of the ever credulous gold
seeker.

There is a righteous indignation
among the homesteaders as to the un
just and undeserved treatment which
they have received at the hands of the
government, aud it is uot to be won
dered that they do not feel friendly
disjKtsed when instead of reuderiug aid
to these men who have isolated them
selves from all civizilcd comforts and
buried themselves for vears iu the wil
lerness. Apparently every obstacle is
thrown iu their way. The lies by ma
licious falsifiers are allowed to in flu-
nee officials and the eager ambition
of men seeking promotion permitted to
sway the judgment against a set of
men who have done so much towards
the opening up and the settlement of
. country which a few years ago was
omparatively unknown. The govern
ment and homesteader should be found
in friendly attitude towards each other,
but this will not be brought about
if the present policy of regarding every
homesteader as a criminal is continued.
It is from the ranks of such men as
these homesteaders that the voters and
soldiers are drawn.
