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, Those of an official character are,'0 or tnroe ypar. the sawmills are among the records of the Surveyor-' a11 busv cutting lumber and railroad general s office, others or a private I llCH' Bnu new nouses are going nature, he said, were in a drawer in'uP- Tne probable Construction of an his desk ln the office at" Portland.

It. Greene, special i does tne llooi Rlver country, and it Is private Inspector for Secretary Hitch- claimed that the. Sandy apples will 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." Edwin Bates, Sr., prominent resl- ' P V inni. i ,n a m Vl . es- day. J. vwmmmwmmmxm -.-r.y-Lr-!

Nowhere In Clackamas county is the country scttllDg up with a better dais of new ople than ln that sec tion drained by the Sandy river. Peo ple from there report that acreage 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 ed to the production of fruits as well 08 ther crops, j Property has more than doubled in value ln that section within the last ! ecl"ai tnose grown in the latter coun try ln the matter of quality and size. 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 al park, the Cascade forest reserve, but has soil wealth that cannot be surpassed ln Western Oregon, and there Is the advantages of climate and scenery with an early probability of electric railway connection with Port land. 1 MRS.
