GREEKS FILE LIENS
ON VALLEYPROPERTY
As attorney for twenty-live Greek
laborers, Attorney S. W. Stark has
filed twenty-five liens on some prop
erty belonging to Geo. VV. McCoy In
the valley, owing to the fact that
McCoy failed to pay the men, who
had been clearing land for him, after
Issuing pay checks.
According to the story of the
Greeks, McCoy, who Is stated to
have turned a similar trick several
times, engaged them In Portland to
clear the land and came to Mood
Klver and set them to work. After
working for two weeks they de
manded their money, and McCoy Is
sued pay checks, telling them to
meet him at the Mt. Hood Hotel the
next day. The checks aggregated In
the nelgliborhood of $'.. When the
men arrived nere next day tliey were
told that McCoy had gone to Port
land. A number of them tli'U went
to that city and, finding his ollice
address, again demanded the money,
and McCoy promised to meet them
In un hour at one of the banks and
pay them off. The Greeks waited
around the bank all day and when
McCoy didn't show up they went to
his house, where they were told he
had gone to Astoria. They then re
turned to Hood Klver and laid the
case before Attorney Stark, who
went to the premises to sec If the
work had Iwen dime. While there he
discovered that McCoy had posted a
notice on a tree the day after the
men went to work, which stated
that he would not be responsible for
any labor ierformed on the place.
The Greeks, lelng unable to read, ;
worked with McCoy on the place un
til they demanded their pay without
knowing of his action In posting the
notice, and were unaware of Its con
tents until told by their attorney.
McCoy hail some trouble of a simi

who, It Is said, never received their
money.
