ties of a group of Portland shopkeep
ers to defraud Insurance companies

Albany. Believing that It la the
first step towards making the mem
bers a reserve of the United States
Army, Captain P. C. Stellmacher of
thla city, commander of the depart
ment of Oregop. lulled Spanish War
Veterans, has received an order from
the commander In-chief at Washing
ton to take Immediate action to re

sent to every state commander In the

STATE TO LEASE LAKES
Land Board Will Receive Bida for
Minerals In Water.
Salem. The state land board fixed
December 10 ns the time for receiving
bids for the lease of Summer aud Al
bert lakes, which have value on ac
count of iiiimr.il deposits contained In
the water.
The bidders will each be required
to file a surety bond In the sum of
Sin. turn to guarantee that they will
carry out the contract and the lease
will be on a royalty basis of so much
per ton. The bidders will also be re
quired to name n minimum annual roy
alty so that there will be no delay In
commencing operations after the con
tract is awarded.
Jason Moore a few months ago of
fered the board tl. 276,000 outright for
the lakes. Another bidder offered
more and the board decided It would
be well to decline all the offers and
take up later the question of dlspoa
Ing of the lakes.
Discussing (he problem at the moot
ing, Governor West and Treasurer
Kay, two of the three members of the
land board, favored action by the
board, rather than putting the ques
tion of developing the lakes over to
the legislature. The bureau of mines,
which has been making an investiga
tion of the hikes, at the request of
Governor West, will have Its report
re.idy November 1, said Governor
West.
C. M. Sain spent 176,000 in an effort
to develop the products of the Oregon
lakes some years ago and he was look
ed upon as a visionary dreamer by
many people of the state. He was
forced to drop bis plan because of lack
of capital. Since then several com
panies and promoters have offered
schemes for the development of the
lakes, most of them bearlug the ear
marks of wildcat propositions.
Shipping Bad Fruit.
Hood Riser. Because a large
amount of fruit has been shipped from
Hood Klver by private shippers who
have placed inferior fruit on the mar
ket, the Apple Orowerw' association Is
making investigations Into the matter
of the shipment of dlseaaed fruit and
will prosecute the violations of the
law regulating the shipment of apples.
Baker Cattle Have Blackleg.
Baker. The first cases of blackleg
reported In a long time have been
found on the Jamee Fleetwood ranch
at Hereford, on Burnt Klver. Mr.
Fleetwood has lost several calves and
ether ranchers in the vicinity are fol
lowing the example set by House
Bros., prominent ranchers, In vaccina
tion of calves.
Postoffice Is Robbed.
Dallas Safecrackers blew the safe
of the postoffice at Kickreall, taking
$160 in cash, but leaving all the
stamps. All Indications point to the
fact that it was the same pari) tBAl
bus been operating iu the valle) some
time, and which blew up the safe at
Alrlie about three weeks ago.
