SUE FOR WARRANTS
Superintendents of State In
stitutions Combine.
REFUSED .BY 'SECRETARY
Employes Have Been Discounting
Their Claims for "Wages From
the State at From Five to
- Twelve lcr Cent.
SALEM, Or.. May 31. (Special.)
The superintendents of all the state
Institutions at Salem will meet at the
asylum tomorrow for the purpose of
perfecting plans for a suit to compel
Secretary of State Dunbar to issue
warrants for tlie monthly payrolls for
the employes-at the institutions. The
employes will join in bearing: tne ex
pense of the suit.
Secretary of State Dunbar will make
no technical fight, but will stipulate
the facts, so that the Supreme Court
can pass upon the question with as
little expense and delay as possible.
The sole question is whether the Kay
law, requiring that salaries be paid
monthly, repeals by Implication so
much of the general law as prohibits
the Issuance of warrants for salaries
where there are no appropriations. '
The general law provides that the
Secretary of State hall not issue a
warrant unless there Is an appropria
te available for its payment, but
when there is a law authorizing the
expense, but no appropriation, he shall
Issue a certificate of allowance. The
Kay law provides hat on the first of
eacn month the superintendent of each
institution shall make out a payroll and
the Secretary of State shall issue a
warrant to the superintendent for the
total amount, whereupon the superin
tendent shall pay the employes the cash
received by him on the warrant.
The contention of the employes Is
that under this act it is the duty of
the Secretary of State to issue a war
rant, even though there is no appropri
ation. Secretary of State Dunbar takes
the postion that this act was not In
tended to repeal the general law, but
that he should issue the warrant only
In case an appropriation is available,
thus construing the old and new laws
so that both will stand. Tne filing
of a referendum petition, holding up
the appropriations for the institutions,
was what precipitated the question re
garding the meaning and effect of the
Kay law.
Attorney-General Crawford was at
first of the opinion that under the
Kay law It is the duty of the Secre
tary of State to issue a warrant, but
he has since concluded that it will be
best to let the court pass upon the
question, and he has advised Mr. Dun
bar not to Issue a warrant- until di
rected to do eo by a mandate from
the courts. The mandamus proceed
ings will be brought next week before
Judge Galloway, and as soon as he
has rendered a decision an appeal will
be taken to the Supremo Court. o
that a decision from the highest trlb
unal may be had.
State employes have been discounting
their salary claims from 5 to 12 per
cent. Many have secured the face value
of their claims by taking the value In
trade from Salem merchants.
The board of trustees of the State
Insane Asylum endeavored to- induce
the Portland banks to take up the
salary claims at par, promising to
recommend to the next Legislature
that Interest be allowed thereon at 6
per cent. The banks declined to act
in tne matter.
The salary claims amount to about
$8000 a month for all institutions lo
cated here. As the annual estimate
of state expenses and the taxes levied
therefor included these salaries, there
will be money In the treasury -wltn
which the claims could be paid if an
appropriation had been made.
IMPORTANT LAND CASES TRIED
One Contestant Establishes Claim at
Vancouver.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. May 31. (Spe
cial.) Two contest cases of considera?
ble Importance have Just been decided
In the Vancouver Land Office. One is
Kestler Ray, contestant, against Ma
thew S. Latimer, contestee. Involving
homestead entry No. 11.272, for the
southeast quarter of section 32, town

agclnst the heirs of Peter A. McArthur
and Sallie Owens againct Annie Bowes,
The case of Ray against Latimer was
tried before the Register and Receiver
of the Vancouver Land Office, August
16, 1904. and was an ordinary claim
that the homesteader Latimer had
abandoned his claim. The trial lasted
several "days, and the decision, on ac
count of the large number of cases
before the local office for considera
tlon, 'nas just been rendered. Kcatler
Ray's contention is sustained in this
decision and the homestead entry or
dered canceled.
In the trial of Sallie A. Owens
against McArthur's heirs and Annie
Bowes, there were many conflicting
claims as to rights in the game tract
of land. Tne land Involved consists
o.t lots 1 and 2 and the north one-half
of the southeast quarter of section S5,
township 6 north, range 3 east, W. M.
In th contention, the register anl
receiver has decided in the favor of
Mrs. Bowes, beHeving that tne test!
mony shows a bonaflde settlement and
residence to- hold the claim.
The claim is likewise decided In
favor of Peter A. McArthur, as heir
of Joseph McArthur. who, it was
proved, had served in the United States
Army and was honorably discharged

The subject for next Sunday is Andrew Carnegie, of whom Jefferson's shade says: "He is the
world's greatest humorist and its peerless practical joker."
In these articles there is such skillful blctidiu? of satire and humor, combined with brilliancy of
theme that they must win instant favor.

. the Cloudburst.
HEPPNER, Or.. May 3L (Special.)
Full details have been received In this
place of the particulars of a cloudburst
that'occurred in Cason Canyon, on Rhea
Creek, about 12 miles southwest of Hepp-
ner, yesterday afternoon, between 2 and
3 o clock. The unfortunate affair. In
which four lives were lost. Is. due mainly
to the fact that the people were laboring
under great excitement.
The home of James Nuneraaker. from
which the people ran. Is located In the
Rhea-Creek Canyon, and directly opposite
the mouth of Cason Canyon, making it a
dangerous place In time of a cloudburst.
At the time of the storm O. J. Cox and
family were visiting at the home of Mrs.
rtunemaker. and as there are a number
of small children in both families, as the
storm progressed the people became
greatly alarmed.
Mr. Nunemakcr went out to watch one
canyon, while Mr. Cox stood on the front
porch of the house to give the alarm if
the water appeared In the other canyon,
the women and children having on their
coats and In wraps. In readiness to run
for higher ground at a moment's notice.
When the water came rushing down tho
narrow canyon. Mr. Cox gave the alarm.
and all made a rush to cross the Rhea-
Creek bridge, all running directly ahead
of the water. Just before they reached
the bridge they were caught by the fast
approaching current. In the party at
tempting to get away there were about 12
people, including several small children,
which very much retarded their flight.
AH succeeded In escaping with their lives
with the exception of Mrs. Nunemaker
and two small children, and the 13-ycar-old
daughter of Mr. Cox.
The news was sent to Hcppner by tele
phone, and a large number of people
from this place were soon on the way to
the scene of the calamity. A searching
party was soon organized, and the bodies
of Mrs. Nunemaker andTtne Cox child
were recovered yesterday evening, having
been carried down with the current for a
distance of several miles. The search for
the other two bodies was suspended, owing
to darkness, and was again resumed at
daylight. After a short search the two
missing bodies were found.
The volume of water that fell was not
great, and only covered a small terri
tory. No water entered the vacated
house, and if the people had stayed in
the houee all would have been saved.

Baptist Preacher Rises to Defense of

NEW YORK, May 31. The recent
criticisms of John D. Rockefeller,
growing out of his gift of $100,000 to
the American Board of Commissioners
for Foreign Missions, are declared, in
an article by Rev. Dr. Robert Stuart
MacArthur. pastor of Calvary Baptist
Church of this city, to be published
tomorrow In the Examiner, a Baptist
publication, to be coarse, cruel and
perhaps criminal, and to have ma
ligned the entire Baptist denomina
tion. .He "protests against the con
demnation of our churches by these
cowardly and unjust attacks," declares
that no one knows better than Mr.
Rockefeller that he cannot buy the
approval of Baptists by his millions;
that Baptists would advocate his ex
pulsion from the church If it were
proved that he had acquired his money
dishonestly or by means morally or
socially destructive. He adds that he
has Investigated certain business
transactions which have been fiercely
denounced by Mr. Rockefeller's crit
ics, and has found them In accordance
with the highest standards of commer
cial morality. Mr. Rockefeller, he as
serts, is worthy of confidence, admira
tion and affection, and he appeals for
