It Is believed that the Jury la Inves

frauds, with a view to renewing the In
dictment against Jones. Potter and oth
ers, which was dismissed because of
the faulty wording of the document A
number of Slleti witnesses are In Port
land who are somewhat familiar with
the methods employed by Jones and
others In securing entrymen to file upon
Slleti lands and win tell what they knew
to the grand Jury. Publisher Soule of
the Lincoln County leader, at Toledo,
and Fred Stanton, county commissioner
of Lincoln County, the latter having done
con siderable cruising on the lands said
to have been fraudulently obtained, are
among those who will testify In this
case. J. T. Clark, an Oregon City ab
stractor, and G. A. Helm, of the same
place are on hand In response to sum
monses. They wftl probably tell what
they learned of the Jones entries by
contests which they filed against the
fraudulent claims. Mr. Clark is also
believed to hare acted as attorney for
the contesteea of the claims. Colonel
Robert A. Miller, a Portland land of
fice attorney, will appear to tell what he
knows about the Sileti filings, he having
acted as attorney for several of the en
trymen and for some of the men who
are understood to be subject to an In
dictment. W. S. TTRen, of Oregon City,
father of the Initiative and referendum,
has been summoned, and was on hand
this morning. He left after a confer
ence with District Attorney Heney. for
Oregon City, to bring down some papers
to be introduced Into the testimony. His
testimony will be to substantiate the
fact that Potter agreed to pay two sol
diers' widows, Mrs. Mullen and Mrs.
Lehman, both of Mllwaukie. Or.. JIOO
for their filing rights, they to take the
claims and to later transfer them to
Potter. This brought to Mr. TTRen's
attention by the non-payment of the
promised t200 because the claims were
held up. and his services as an attorney
were sought to collect the promised
J200. Potter. It Is said, paid the filing
fees, but withheld the 1200 because the
claims did not pass to 'final receipt

men. It Is alleged, have succeeded In
getting title to timber lands there by
equally doubtful methods as were used
In the Slleti reserve, the modus operandi
being almost Identical, the entrymen

hop man of the state, and manager of
the Albany Brewing Co.. Is here to tell

transactions. This accounts. It Is be

Prineville citizens who are to appear
before the grand Jury.
The grand Jury held a short session
this morning, completing organization
and adjourning shortly before noon. J.

member of the Jury, was chosen secre

HOP CROP WILL BE SHORT.
Dry Weather of July Did General Damage
To Growing Vines.
Based upon reports received from Ore
gonlan correspondents Jn the hop pro
ducing counties of the state, it Is esti
mated that the 1905 hop crop of Oregon
will amount to 86,850 bales, says the Or
egontan. This estimate Is based on the
present condition of the yards. X'nfavlr
able weather between now and the time
for picking may reduce the output. It Is
an exceedingly difficult matter to collect
accurate estimates In a matter of this
kind, as the correspondent's Informant Is
often biased In his views, but particular
pains were taken this year to secure In
formation from reliable growers, and It is
believed that the figures given below are
not far from right In the aggregate. Even
the most sanguine men in the hop trade
do not deny that the crop this year has
been damaged by the long drought and
insect pests, but opinions differ widely
as to the amount of damage done. It Is
to be regretted that Oregon has not pro
duced a crop in keeping with the exten
sive acreage, but the state Is still far
ahead of every other In the matter of
hop production, and will probably rank as
the leading hop state of the Union.
In Clackamas County,
Regarding the Clackamas county crop,
the Oregon Cltv correspondent to the Or
egonian had the following:
"Conservative growers estimate that
the Clackamas county hup crop this year
will not exceed three-fourths of an aver
age crop. The extreme dry weather dur
ing July did extensive damage to the
growing vines, in that many of the run
ners were scorched so badly that they are
fruitless. In addition to the drouth, lice
operated with more or less disastrous
results in many yards. There is also
some complaint because of missing hills,

but these are no more frequent this year
than other seasons.
"In the planting of a great many new
yards, however, the hop acreage of this
county has been Increased from 50 to TS
per cent during the year. But as these
yards will not yield this season, the esti
mate as to the year's crop Is based on
the old yards, which are not showing up
very encouragingly."
Pick by Weight
The meeting of the hop growers of
Woodbum and vicinity which was held
at the armory at Woodbum Saturday
afternoon was welt attended. Consider
ing the busy season. About seventy
five growers were present says the Salem
Statesman.
The meeting was called to order by
Acting Chairman Captain Pope, who
gave a short address, bringing out the
main object of the meeting, which was
to form an organization among the hop
growers, and to agree among themselves
to get good clean hops picked this year
and thus bring up the standard of qual
ity, which seems to have been shattered
somewhat by the many stems and leaves
sent to England from last year's pick
ing. The best way to overcome the dirty
picking, which presented Itself, was to
pick only by weight. By unanimous vote
Mr. John Kennedy was chosen chairman
and Captain Pope secreetary. After or
ganizing what Is known as the Willam
ette Valley Hop Growers' Association, of
Woodbum, the question of how the hops
should be picked this year, by the box
or by weight, arose. All seemed to be In
favor of picking by weight but a warm
debate started In regard to whether they
should use the standard weight box of
fifty pounds per box or do away with the
box entirely and pick by weight. It was
finally agreed to pick by weight.
The next question was how much per
pound. The first price named was 90
cents per hundred, but the majority were
in favor of paying Jl per hundred and In
sisting on clean hops and thus regain the
good name which, as Captain Pope ex
pressed it "has been given a black eye."
Francis Feller said that hop growers
may consider themselves getting their
hops picked very cheaply at 1 cent per
pound, because heretofore they have
been paying at the rate of $1.35 per hun
dred pounds, as they paid 50 cents per
box of from thirty to forty pounds. The
weight proposition will give all pickers
the same opportunity, whether they be
fast or slow, one alone or a dozen pick
ing together.
Poisons In Food.

pain poisons originate in your food, but
