After going to Weft port, a s'ation fifty miles below Rose burg, the fist lot of farmers who went were met by a locator who agreed 10 put each of them on a first-class timber claim, provided they gave him $100 cash.

The report further says that the vice of intemperance ehonld be checked and the crime of easy divorces, which h.is made America too conspicuous in the eyes of the world, made impossible. The duty ot the gtange was declared to be to impress upon the farmer that he is an American citizen, with politnl dtnies to perform, and thnt the man who neglects them "because politics are too dirty for him" is just as mucii a criminal as the man who neglects to drain a cess pool that threatens his family because) it is ill smelling.
