MELDRUM AT
HERMANN TRIAL
GIVES IMPORTANT TE8TIMONY
IN REFERENCE TO 8CHOOL
LAND 8TEAL8.
Washington, March f The trial of
Dinger Hermann was resumed In the rate at Increased figures, and a spirit
District Superior Court today. The of improvement and progress per
hearlng was marked by the Introduc- - varies the air. The operation of a doz
tlon of evidence tending to prove an en saw mills, large and small, for the
alleged conspiracy to defraud the gov- last ten years, has left a lot of stump
ernment of land upon which tho pros- lands that make desirable farms, and
ecutlon rellea to show a motive for
the destruction by Hermann's order
of letterpress copybooks used by hlra
whllo Commissioner. The testimony
which the Government contends,
shows conspiracy, waa gJven by Hen-
ry Meldrum, former Surveyor-general,
who was convicted of complicity in '
land frauds In Oregon. Meldrura was
on the stand when the court adjourn-
ed for the day and his testimony will
bo resumed In tho morning.
Meldrura testified that he was dls-
missed In April, 1903. Ho said he had
received many letters from Hermann,

cock. These letters. Meldrum said
related to public land.
In response to questions by District
Attorney Baker, Meldrum admitted
that ln the private correspondence
mentioned, Hermann had requested
him to provide a place In his office for
a Miss Silverstein and when inform
ed that this could not be done, had
suggested that It be arranged so that
her name could be used In taking up
public lands. The plan, as explained
by the witness, would provide a way
for Miss Silverstein to be paid $300
or $400 for the use of her name.
According to Meldru-: in interview
which the Government alleges was In
furtherance of the allecr i conspiracy
took place ln his office In the fall of
1901. Desldes himself, State Senator
Franklin Pierce Mays and Hermann
were present The trio, so he explain
ed, discussed a plan for taking up
"school land." Mays pointed out on a
plat parcels In Umatilla, Grant, Har
ney and Union Counties, which he
wanted Included In forest reserves.
When this school land was reserved,
It was to be sold for $1.25 per acre. It
made no difference whether the land
so taken up was good or bad, for any
practical use. so long as It was situat
ed within a forest reserve, as the gov
ernment would Issue scrip for It, the
scrip being available for the acquisi
tion of any unappropriated Federal
timber land.
Meldrura said he had four conversa
tions with Hermann about this school
land. Hermann each time reminding
him that It was a "good thing to In
vest in." He had no money and told
Hermann he could not for that reason
"Invest."

Nowhere In Clackamas county is

land Is changing hands at a rapid
as a rule can be purchased at reason-
able prices. Much of the land that is
being sold is unimproved property,
and many of the old-timers are selling
off small tracts from their holdings
that will soon be made Into homes for
new settlers.
Past experience has demonstrated
ne fact that the soil along the Sandy
river and Its tributaries possesses
wonderful fertility, and Is well adapt-

j Property has more than doubled in
value ln that section within the last

This section has not only the ad
vantage of being sheltered by the
high mountains of the Cascade range,
Is convenient to that great nation

but has soil wealth that cannot be
surpassed ln Western Oregon, and
there Is the advantages of climate and
