RECENT PAYMENTS ARE HEAVY Land Sold In Preceding Biennial Period Was Taken on the Partial-Payment Plan New Rules of State Board. SALEM, Or.. Jan. 8. (Special.)-Salcs of state lands in Oregon for the two years ending September 30 aggregated 433,83$ acres, and the cash received on sales amounted to $676,964. This Is a decrease In the number of acres sold as compared with the preceding two years, when the aggregate was 491.123 acres; but the re ceipts for the preceding two years amounted to only $511,553. The Increase In payments notwithstand ing a decrease In the number of acres sold may be explained by the fact that prac tically all land is sold on the partial payment plan, and In the last two years heavy payments have been made upon rales made in the preceding biennial term. These fact6 arc shown by the biennial report of the State Land Board, recent ly made public. The report also shows that during the two years -ans have been made from the common school fund to the amount of 51.617,303, while the loans for the previous two years were only J922.G07. The total loans from the common school fund now outstanding amount to $3,234,229.00, while two years ago the total -was only $2,423,014.87. show ing a net increase of $811,215.03. The amount of surplus in the treasury In the common school fund has been materially reduced by the purchase of school district bonds, and a large number of farm loans, leaving a surplus at the end of the term of $200,361.24. The report of the board sets forth a number of rules that have been estab lished during the past two years for the purpose of prjtectlng the state's interests in the handDng of the state lands, and after statins' that large repayments from the school fund "were made because of the non-approval of lieu land selections made by the state upon mineral base, the re port says: Mineral Base Selections. The adjudication of the mineral base used was made In the usual manner, and .on the ame kind of proof that had theretofore been ued, and which had always been approved at "Washington, but owinj; to the adoption of a new eot of rules by the Secretary of the In terior, which required that, in order to estab lish the mineral character of the school sec tions used as bane. It would be necessary to how that they contained mineral in paying quantities, and must be evidenced by mines in operation on the land. This made It Im possible for the etate to prove the mineral character as required, hence the selections were disapproved and the state's title- failed and the money had to be refunded to the pur chasers, as provided In sections 3310 and S311 of Bellinger and Cotton's Code. New Base Discovered. A few thousand acres of new valid base has been discovered by the State Land Aeent. which, by request of the board, has been used to reselect some of the lands heretofore selected which failed of approval. This was done upon application of purchasers of some of the re jected selections, the board rcquirlnr them in every case to pay $2.50 per acre in addition to that already paid or agreed to be paid, in or der to make the price for the new selection conform to the price fixed in the act passed by the last Legislature, ylr, $5 per acre. This ba saved the state the necessity of refunding 3Uite a sum of money, as well as assisted the purchasers of rejected oelectlons In securing cool title to tho land. Six thousand six hun dred and fourteen and thirty-nine one hun dredths acres have been so used. Lieu Land Predicament. In a number of cases the state found itself In the unfortunate predicament of having- used school sections as base for indemnity selec tions and of having also sold the same sec tions1 iu place. This ehould not have been done, and for your Information an explanation of how It occurred is here made. As before stated, a large number of Indemnity selec tions were made on mineral base during tho years 1900. 1901 and 1902. and it was on this class of selections principally that the double sales were made. In the two latter years large areas in the eastern part of the state were withdrawn from entry by the Secretary of the Interior, with a view to the creation of. forest reserve. Doubtless Information that these withdrawals would be- made had reached a number of persons in the state in advance, as within a few months prior to the with drawals nearly all the surveyed reboot sections included in the areas afterward withdrawn were applied for and sold, although they were IU the mountainous region of Eastern Oregon, practically worthless and only valuable for exchange for other lands under United States laws, in esse of the creation of a permanent reserve embracing them. At the came time some of these flections had been or were being adjudicated as mineral, and the State Land Agent was using them as base for Indemnity relections but not furnishing the board with description 'of the land used as base, the se lected land was also sold. This was owing to lack of co-operation between the office of the State Land Agent and that of the board. This has been entirely obviated during the last two yearn, so that it cannot now occur. The board renews its recommendation that applicants to purchase tide land be required to give public notice of their In tention to apply, so that shore owners, or others interested, may have an opportu nity to be heard. This recommendation is made because it sometimes happens that people who are not shore owners purchase tide lands and shut the shore owners from access to the body of water adjoining the tide land. The report gives a full account of the contest over the swamp lands in Klamath Indian Reservation, showing that tho state was defeated In the contest- The board employed W. B. Matthews to try the case In the General Land Office at Washington, fixing his fee at $4000 if he won and $1500 if he lost, the fee to be paid only In case the Legislature should make an appropriation therefor. The board recommends an appropriation of $1500 for this purpose. The financial report of G. G. Brown, clerk of the State Land Board, is as fol lows: Receipts.

It was learned during the day that Man ager McCreedie. did not know that Ely, who has nothing to do with the present management of the dub. had sent Cas tro's name to the National board. It is understood that Manager McCreedie In formed Castro that he, McCreedie, would wire the board that Portland had no claim to the South American's services. IN HOPE OF MONEY Officials Feel Harbor Bill May Yet Pass, LANGF1TT MAKES HIS REPORT Shows Amount Needed for River and Harbor Improvements During the Coming Year Plan of Im provement Under Way. The announcement yesterday that Con gress might yet make some provision for the continuance of the more important Government work in this district caused a more hopeful feeling among those Inter ested. It was stated that an appropriation might be allowed for work on the Jetty, the river from Portland to the sea, o Colllo Canal and possibly some provision for the acquisition of the canal and locks at Oregon City. These are the improve ments of most Importance to tho com mercial Interests of tho Northwest, and it Is a matter of gratification that the committees In Washington reallrc tho need for their provision. The accompanying statement Is com piled from the annual report of Major W. C. Langfltt. Corps of Engineers, dated June 30, 1904, and shows tho Improvements under way with the estimate of the amount which could be profitably expend ed during the fiscal year ending June SO, 1905, and that amount as recommended by the Chief of Engineers. The amounts shown as being available were the bal ances on hand June SO, 1S04, from prior appropriations. These amounts have been decreased greatly, however, by tho work performed from that date until January 1, IKS. In no case Is there a. sufficient amount to proceed with any further Im provement unless additional funds are available in the very near future. PROJECTS FOR IMPROVEMENT.

Prof. J. H. Hyslop la The World Today. THE vicissitudes of psychic research are an Interesting fact for the psychologist, even when he ridi cules It. Everyone knows what the frauds were after the Fox sisters confessed their trickery, and perhaps all Intelligent peo ple will have observed 'what a decline In frauds followed the publication of the re port by the Seybert Commission. But the Investigations of the Society for Psychical Research and the exploitation of the phenomena of Mrs. Piper have revived an Interest In the problem of immortality while throwing wide open the gates to those dupes who are fanatically desirous to communicate with departed friends, and the consequence has been that fraud is so rampant that a sane man hardly dare say a word on any side of the sub ject without Inviting social and scientific ostracism. But this is not the way to meet the situation. I consider that facts enough have been published In records and reports of the Piper and similar cases to settle the question of identity In reference to the real or alleged persons purporting to be "communicators"; and that the difficul ties of the spiritistic interpretation of the phenomena, as felt by both the general public and the average scientific man, arc not suggested by the supposition of fraud, telepathy, guessing, chance co incidence or any other ordinary causes, but are aroused by the triviality of tho incidents, the confusion associated with the "communications," and the absence of all that kind of information about the alleged communicators, their conditions of life and existence which the living are most curious to know. They can stand triviality until personal Identity Is proved, but they cannot understand why, after the demand for personal Identity has been satisfied, the "communications" still con tinue to be so trivial and inane, why spirits can talk about nothing but jack knives, old hats, toothpicks and the like. In the first place. I have shown In my report on the Piper case, by an elaborate system of experiments between living per sons, Imitating the situation In medium istic phenomena, that living persons will select unconsciously very trivial incidents to prove their Identity and that the facts sufficient to prove It are lees In number than we have always insisted upon In supernormal phenomena. But this neces sity of trivial facts Is not the explanation of them in the Piper case. The real rea son lies far deeper, and it represents one of the crucial factors in the determina tion of the spiritistic theory. Every stu dent and critic of the case will have to face It as a necessary part of the ex planation. It Is the mental state of the communicator while he is communicating. I do not mean his mental state In his normal ife hereafter, but that mental con dition which Is apparently necessary In order to communicate with the living at all. But this Ib not the chief reason that the" communications arc trivial and confused or lacking In the kind of Information wanted. The reason for these characteris tics Is deeper still. It Is that the com municator is himself In an abnormal men tal condition while communicating. It may be compared to a delirious1 dream, or to certain types of secondary personality In the living, or even to the trance of Mrs. Piper, In some of Its aspects. The only question for the scientific man to raise la whether there is any evidence for such an hypothesis. This question I shall answer very briefly, aa any attempt to supply complete evidence would take a volume. The reasons for It I shall enum erate. First Some hypothesis of the kind Is necessary In order to account for the triviality and confusion, after we have felt forced to apply the spiritistic hypothesis to explain the supernormal facts. There Is no excuse for this tri viality and confusion on the telepathic theory, which has to be conceived as capable of doing anything In order to make It apply to what we obtain. Hence, with the spiritistic theory once forced on us to explain the evidential matter, we are obliged to find an ex planation of the non-evidential matter and more particularly the confusion about incidents and proper names. This necessity suggests that the men tal unity of the phenomena is to be found In the mind of the communicator, while the form may be more or less affected by the medium through which the messages come. Second The peculiar confusion of certain messages which are evidential, but reflective of a mental state like our loss of the sense of personal iden tity. Many messages are of this type, and the fact that they contain super normal information confusedly told is one of the strongest indications of the truth of the supposition I have ad vanced, and the psychopathologlst would be the first to recognize this on any theory of the phenomena. It is, in fact, surprising that it has not been suggested much sooner than It has been. Mr. Myers and Dr. Hodgson, so far as I knew, were the first to men tion It. Third The uniform testimony of "communicators" is to this effect In some form or another. They have said that it Is something like our sleep, and so might be compared to the hypnotic trance. One of the chief "controls" (supposed dlscarnate spirits who can best stand the transcendental condi tion for communicating at all) in the Piper case has over and over again In dicated this fact, and corroborative evidence of it occurred in a most re markable message from one of his friends after death. This friend, while living:, was very much out of patience with the triviality, evasion and con fusion at the sittings when his de ceased friend (George Pelham in the report) was communicating. Soon afterward this living friend was him self numbered with the dead, and In his communications to Dr. Hodgson, through Mrs. Piper, he admitted that his first attempts were very confused, and that he "now understood why George Pelham had to spell out his words," and was so confused. There is one consideration of great value in this part of the theory. It shows what the limitations are for any rational knowledge of the next life. We know from similar mental condi tions among the living that rational conversation cannot be carried on in them, and that dreams and deliria re sult in Just such trivialities and con fusion, and the absence of rational statements about important questions: The fact that such a condition exists, as more or less necessary to any com munication, is one of great Importance, considering the Insane curiosity which ma.ny people have about another world when their duties He in this one, and the "otherwordllness" which has char acterized so many ages of superstition and persecution. Much of this curios ity is the reflection of a bad morality, and a desire either to escape present duties or to ascertain the limits which nature assigns to th habits of libertines.

Social Dissipation A A young woman from a nearby town, who was recently visiting' friends in Cleveland, was taken sick at the the ater. It became necessary to call a doc tor from the audience, and one prompt ly appeared at the manager's office to render her assistance. After learning her symptoms, he ordered her to take a Red Raven. She was sent home In her carriage. When the excitement was all over the manager said to the doctor. "I would serve Red Raven to every lady In my audience if I thought It would keep them welL" "That Is not exactly the idea," said the physician. "This is a particular case. This young woman has been suffering' from too much social dissipation. She has been going somewhere every night for the last two or three weeks, no doubt. A theater with refreshments afterward, a party, a late dinner and de cidedly too many luncheons. Her sys tem has become overtaxed. Had she occasionally taken a Red Raven she would readily haVe stood this strain. As It was; she allowed herself to break down. There is nothing like Red Raven for people in her condition.
