X,.- Dickenson Has Vanlslied a Completely as Harmon Snyder and Old Man Kirk: Did Before Him. ROSEBURG, Or., Sept- 10. (Special.) Z. IX- Wilson, a reliable citizen of Yon callaT Or., tells of the mysterious disap pearance of his uncle, James L. Dicken son, near the head of Grave Creek, Jack son County.

(Special.) The Supreme Court, in an important de cision filed today, rulesthal one corpora tion 'may have the right to condemn the property of another corporation of like character to be used for like purposes. Tho right to condemn In any particular case depending upon the facts and cir cumstances appearing therein. In the case before the Court the Samlsh Boom Company had been doing business under the laws of the state for a vear when the "Union Boom Company organized and purchased tide land booming grounds froni the state that had been in use by the Samlsh Boom' Company. The latter then sought to condemn the lands, but the. lower court denied its petition. The Supreme Court holds that Samlsh Boom Company, though having rendered itself liable to action for ejectment as trespasser by the owner, had not for feited its right to render Its possession lawful by the" exercise of its power of eminent,, domain. The lower court is or dered to summon a jury to assess the amount of damages under the condemna tion proceedings. CHILD MURDERER TO HAXG. Jlob Was Ready to Lynch Jackson if the Verdict Was Otherwise.-" MISSO'ULA, Mont, Sept 10.

SALEM. Or.. Sept 10. (Special.) In lew of the fact that the. loans from the school fund have exceeded the repayment of loans bv S300.000 in the-past year, the State Land Board is not worryinpf-tfver the action of the Corvallls School Board In selling $8000 i per cent bonds to a local investor. "We are lending money in Benton County at G " per cent Interest on gilt edge real estate security", remarked a member of the boaroV today, "and if some Benton County man wants to take the bonds at 4 per cent we shall not try to prevent him." The decrease in the surplus tunas mai- cates a radical change in business. Up to year- aeo the surplus was steadily in creasing. Borrowers from the school fund were making money and paying off their indebtedness. Since people have gotten out debt the ' Investment fever has pos sessed them and they are now borrow ing for the purpose of buying property. The board makes inaulry concerning tne use that Is to be made of the borrowed money and learns that in a large propor tion of cases the money is wanted for the purpose of adding to a farm or enlarging the present investment. "People are com ing here from the East and buying prop erty," said a member of the board, "and when Oregon people -see newcomers buy ing, they take the fever too and begin to buy. That accounts largely for the fact that our loans have exceeaea payments by about $300,000 in the past year. The sur plus is now less than JSOO.WW, The State Land Board is not oisposea to ask school districts to borrow from the state at 5 per cent Interest when they can borrow from private Individuals at 4 per cent The board does not tninic, now ever, that many loans can be made now at ner cent as -was done in uorvaiiis. Money is more in demand than it was a ear or two ago and the .rate oi interest. Is-'raislng. i . Whether 4 per cent bonds issuea wiuioui nfforfnir them to the State Land Board at 5 per cent are valid is a question the board will leave for tne district and the I purchaser to settle, for the board will not ask a district to pay 5 per cent if it. can get money at 4 per cent . .

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 10. A series of forest fires are now burning In the moun- together to elect a .new superintendent 1 tains of California, and much timber Is inquiry develops the fact that no change I In the management Is contemplated. "It- looks like a case of 'no candidate need apply,' rtmarked one member of the board when pressed for Information on the sub ject The members of the board express themselves as well pleased with superin tendent , Calbreath's administration and If there Is! any talk of a change no member of the board has heard of it The duties of the superintendent aro those of a business manager rather than of a physician, though his supervision over a hospital for the insane makes it advisable that the incumbent should be an experienced doctor of medicine. The policy of the board has been to practice rigid economy and in this they have had the un failing assistance of Superintendent uai- breath. The carefulness witn wnicn tne suDerlntendent has guarded the states' Interests Is frequently shown by criticisms made by, persons who have contracts for furnishing supplies for that Institution. During the present administration every contractor has been required to lurnisn the full measure of quantity and quality, according to the terms of his-agreement and the patients at the asylum navo re ceived what the taxpayers have paid for. The board has also adopted the policy of making the superintendent supreme in the management of the Institution ana holding him responsible for all that oc curs. There has been some friction at times, as there must always be where 150 employes are working, but the friction has served io disclose defects which were soon removed. Employes who could not get ninnir with the superintendent have learned that the board stands by the su perlntend'ent At no time has there been nnvthinir but perfect harmony between the superintendent and the other physl cians. The asylum physicians, DrS. William son. Grimtn, .aiciNary ana xamiesje were elected several months ago ana nave al ready entered upon their terms. Dr. Cal breath was elected superintenacnt rour years ago. after a long contest to succeed Dr. D. A. Paine, in political .circles uai- breath was known as the "Simon" candi date, because he had affiliated with that wlnsr of the party. Dr. J. N. Smith was the applicant who had hl3 principal hr dorsements from the "Mitchell" faction Whether or not politics cut any ligure in the election four years agq, it is certain that ' factional lines will have nothing to do with ' Superintendent Calbreath's re-election. The members of the board aro satisfied with. Calbreath's work, and, unless something now unforaeen happens, will re-elect him for another four years.
