THE 3IORTING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, STONE 23, 1906.
It
IT LEAST TWELVE
ARE INDICTED
It May Be That Fourteen Will
Have to Answer for Vio
lating Law.
SELLWOOD PRECINCT VOTE
Grand Jury Brings In Two Batches
of Indictments, and in the
List Are Well-Known
Citizens.
After voting at least a dozen and per
haps 14 indictments against employe of
the Oregon Water Power & Railway Com
pany at The Oaks, freeholders, election
officials and electors, involved in the al
leged illegal voting in Sellwood precinct,
at the general election, the grand jury
stood adjourned at 4 o'clock last evening
and will not take up its work again until
Monday morning at 10 o'clock.
The names of those who have been
voted In violation of the election laws,
and subject to prosecuton when the in
dictments are returned, are kept secret
and are not known positively, except by
those who are conducting the Investiga
tion. The character of the evidence gath
ered Indicates that J. W. Reed, Mayor of
Estacada, president of the Bstacada Bank
and superintendent of construction at The
Oaks: B. K. Boynton, assistant superin
tendent of the O. W. P. & Ry. Co. : W. P.
Jacks and T. R. Baldwin, electricians for
the O. W. P. Co.: G. Plass, secretary of
the Mount Hood Brewery Company; John
Schneider, foreman of Pfelffer Bros."
Leather Company; A. E. French, a barber
of Sellwood: Chairman John A. Miller, of
the Sellwood election board, and George
It Read, another election official, are
probably among those named in the doc
uments. It Is also possible that A. R. TMmlek, a
Sellwood freeholder, will be Included in
the list.
Other Freeholders Also.
The other four will doubtless include
some of the other freeholders whose
names appear most frequently upon the
electors' certificates, who swore in their
votes, and one or two of the electors
whose alleged violations of the election
laws appear most flagrant. It is not
thought that any effort will be made to
make any arrests before Monday mornr
Ing. as none of those whose names have
been brought out prominently in the in
vestigation hue shown a disposition to flee
and all of those indicted will be kept un
der pretty strict surveillance to make cer
tain that hands can be laid upon them
when they are needed.
Since Judge Sears has replied in the
affirmative to the questions contained in
the presentment made Thursday morning
and the Jury and District Attorney feel
more confident of the ground upon which
they stand, a great deal more activity
has been shown in the investigation and
some additional evidence was furnished by
five new witnesses which appeared be
fore the lnqulsitory body yesterday. Be
fore the investigation of the election
frauds is concluded, it la understood, a
great many more indictments will have
ben voted and returned, involving no lees
than nine of.he freeholders who signed
the affidavits and attested to the qualifi
cations of the alleged illegal voters, and
other prominent men and officials who
were especially active at the polls in Sell
wood precinct.
New and Interesting Phase.
If it Is true that two of the election
officials in Sellwood preclnot are among
those named in the incriminating docu
ments to be returned by the Grand Jury,
probably upon the charge of official
misconduct, a new and more interesting
phase will be placed upon the situation.
If they are convicted of the charge to
be placed against them, it will have the
effect of invalidating the election in that
precinct, and. if this should come to pass.
an action at law will probably be brought
to set aside the vote in that precinct.
As Sheriff-elect Stevens recetved a ma
jority of 17 votes in that precinct, the
casting out otf the entire vote there
would affect the general result, and
might ' determine whether Stevens or
word should he the next Sheriff. Other
wise the result of the Investigation will
have no effect upon the election so far
as the general results are concerned.
Witnesses Before Grand Jury.
The witnesses who appeared before the
jury during yesterday's session were H.
J. Crouse, Edward H. Bollinger. Ran
dolph Brown, R. B. Urfur. W. T. Kinsey
and Mr. Bell. Chairman John A. Miller,
of the election board, whose official con
duct at the polls is said to have been
brought into question, appeared before the
Jury voluntarily and. It is understood,
tried to explain his actions. E. H. Bol
linger, who geta his mall at the home
of his mother, 139 Seymour avenue. South
Portland, said he voted in Sellwood pre
cinct because he had practically been
making that his home since last Spring,
and stayed at the Sellwood Hotel as a
matter of convenience, as nobody asked
him to go there or to vote. T. J. Crouse
voted in precinct No. 17, and testified
that he was not asked to vote In Sell
wood precinct. He Is employed at the
Oaks.
W. T. Kinsey also voted in precinct
No. 17, and R. B. Urfur voted in precinct
No. 39. Both had understood that their
actions had been called Into question and
called to Inquire and explain, but they
were not summoned as witnesses. Ran
dolph Brown resides at 846 Powell street.
but it Is understood he signed the affi
davit of R. C. Reed, who was among
those employed at The Oaks, and swore
in his vote. J. A. Beckwtth, an attorney,
was sworn In as a special deputy sheriff
and as a challenger at Sellwood, and the
principal scope of his testimony was In
explanation of some of the actions com
plained of on the part of the election
officials. The Indictments returned so far
were voted upon in two sets, the last,
consisting of eight true bills, having been
voted upon Immediately prior to adjourn
ment last evening.
HEAVY FREIGHT TRAFFIC
A Thousand Carloads Going: East by
the O. R. & N.
Traffic officials of the O. R. & N.
estimate that fully 1D00 cars of freight
are on their way east from Western
Oregon, between this city and Pendle
ton. Regular and extra freight trains
ere working- like mad to clear up the
traffic that was congested by the re
cent washouts, and the heavy business
amounts almost to a blockade.
The westbound movement of freight
Is normal, but this cannot be said of
products of the state going East. A
large part of this enormous business
is lumber destined for Colorado, Ne
braska. Utah, Idaho, Kansas and other
Eastern points. While the tracks were
blockaded by washouts,- the piling up
of freights at this end of the line went
merrily on, and when the road was
finally opened, there was a tremen
dous number of cars that had accumu
lated. It will take some time yet to
clean up the business that is en the
waiting list.
Reports from Pendleton state that
five and six doubleheader freight
trains are running- over the Blue
Mountains every day bound for the
East, and that the traffic passing
through the Pendleton yards Is unpre
cedented In volume.
Train crews are working overtime
to man the long strings of cars going
East. With normal conditions, the
traffic eastward would be heavy, but
with a week's tleup of the main line,
extra efforts are required to work off
the freight on the waiting list.
MAKES TOUR OF THE O. R. & If.
General Manager O'Brien Inspecting
Branch Lines in the North.
LEWISTON,. Idaho, June 22. Special.)
J. P. O'Brien, general manager of the O.
R. & N. Co., accompanied by his wife and
daughter, arrived here today In his private
car Oregon, which was attached to the
regular Northern Pacific passenger train.
He has been on a tour of inspection of
the company's lines, and will leave on the
steamer Spokane tomorrow for Rlparia
to look over the work being done on the
Lewiston-Rlparla branch.
He sent his private car around to Rl
paria, and from there will go to the Pom-

A
DISCOVERED AT EAST EIGHTH
AXD EAST MORRISON.
Had Been In Water at Least Two
Weeks and Identification
Could Not Be Made.
A badly decomposed body of a well-
dressed man, apparently about 35 years
of age. was found in a slough at East
Morrison and East Eighth street last
night. No identification was possible
owing; to putrincatlon of the remains.
No marks were found on the body
which would lead to the supposition
that death was caused other than by
accident. But from the peculiar place
in which the body was found Chief
Grltzmacher started an investigation,
and detectives are now trying to learn
the dead man's identity.
The body was found by residents or.
the East Side, and the police and the
Coroner were notified. How long the
body had been in the shallow water is
not known, but from the condition of
the corpse, it is believed that it lay In
the mud and slime for more than two
weeks. When taken from the water
the features were so swollen that recogni
tion was impossible.
In the pockets of the clothing were
found a silver watch and leather chain,
a few cards, one of which bore the
name of Card & Edgar, contractors,
some loose change and a bunch of
keys.
The body was clothed In a dark suit
and on the feet were a pair of white can
vas shoes. The head was covered with
brown hair, and the upper lip with a
sandy mustache. When alive, the man
nrohablv weighed about 150 or 155
pounds. The body was buried last
night.

LORD TENNYSOJ must have pictured
Just such a spot as beautiful Cedar
Hill when he wrote his ldylie
comedy, "The Foresters," and Robin
Hood and Maid Marian never vowed their
troth in a more quaintly picturesque
forest, a more delicately tinted twilight,
nor before a more deeply appreciative
audience than last night on the hills
of Portland. There have been many per
fect productions of this ever popular
comedy. The dare-devil acts of bold
Robin and the toewitchery of fair Marian
have been 'enacted both Indoor and out,
but never with a more perfect and
effective setting. The longest day of the
READY FOR Li
FRAUD TRIALS
Government Will Soon Begin
the Prosecution of the
Indicted.
HENEY EXPECTED SHORTLY
Special Precautions Are Taken
Against Possible Loss ol Impor
tant Papers and to Prevent
Tampering With Them.
With the near approach of the time
for the land fraud trials to begin, a
chess-like movement appears to have de
veloped among the chief actors In the
great Federal drama, and from now on
Portland will prove the point of attrac
tion not only for those whose reputations
and liberties are involved in the vortex
of governmental investigation, but will
also be the goal towards which those
clothed with official authority are also
heading.
At least 150 persons are affected by the
miscellaneous lot of Indictments already
returned, and while it is not contemplated
in the order of things that all these
different cases can be tried at the en
suing term of court, or of several terms
for that matter, it is well understood
RESERVATIONS SHOULD BE MADE
PROMPTLY.
Those who are desirous of accom
panying The Oregdnlan party to the
Yellowstone park and other places of
unusual Interest, such as Salt Lake
City and Boise City, will do well to
make their reservations u soon a
convenient, aa there are but a few
more left. Reservation will be made
upon the receipt of $80, which In
cludes railroad fare and all accommo
dations while In the Park. But it
does not include meals and Pullman
reservations while en route.
Those who will accompany the
party will benefit by many advan
tages which they would not other
wise enjoy If they made the trip by
themselves. For example, the party
will travel in a special train, which
will follow its own schedule. The
special train will be one of the finest
ever made up in the Northwest and
will consist of three Pullmans,
coach, diner, baggage-car and
engine. Many entertainments will
be given' In honor of the young la
dles and there are many other things
which will make the trip epeclafly
delightful for all who compose the
party. A rare opportunity Is offered
to visit the Yellowstone Park at mini
mum expense.
that a sufficient number will be .brought
before the bar of Justice to furnish in
teresting material for a great many sen
sational incidents before the trials have
progressed anywhere near their end. As
sensational and graphic as those which
have already taken place are known to
have been. It is confidently believed that
many of those to follow, especially where
in Blnger Hermann figures, will surpass
them.
Heney Is Expected.
It Is not altogether improbable that
Francis J. Heney, the Government's spe
cial prosecutor In the land fraud cases,
will reach here some time next week,
although his coming is all a matter of
speculation, even with himself, as he has
much private business that demands at
tention In San Francisco before he will
be able to get away.
Judge Hunt will probably arrive about
July 10. in which event the new Federal
Grand Jury may be convened a few days
later.
Judge Gilbert, of the United States Cir
cuit Court, is expected on July 1, although

weather, and the last rays of the sun
seemed to linger for a parting look at
the beautiful scene. The pink and ame

of the gently swaying cedars and the
thick undergrowth of the hill easily trans

abode of bold Robin and his band.
But it was not all in the perfect setting.
The complete success of this production
by the Collegiate Alumnae was due to
the many talented members who stepped
into the quaint and chivalrous characters
of the days of Richard the Lionhearted
with a naturalness and grace of pro
fessionals. Amateurs they proclaimed
themselves, but amateurs they failed to
prove themselves and were freely for
no special significance in connection with
any of the land fraud cases attaches to
his presence here then.
Secret Service Agent Burns, who Is
rated as one of the shrewdest detectives
in Uncle Sam's employ and from whom
Puter made his sensational escape at
Boston March 27, will accompany ilr.
Heney here, as will also Irvln Rltten
house, who has been detailed by the Sec
retary of the Interior to assist Inspector
Neuhausen in the arrangement of all
documentary evidence against the ac
cused. Burns Is already in San Francisco
with Heney, while Rlttenhouae Is mo
mentarily ' expected there, and after
checking over a lot of the papers that
escaped the flames, all hands will come
direct to this city.
Guarding the Documents.
So important has the safety of the
multitudinous quantity of public docu
ments that will be used at the trials
been considered that yesterday a parti
tion was constructed in the hallway ap
proaching the United States District At
torney's office, Miutting off all direct com
munication with the three main rooms
and compelling visitors to dance attend
ance until such time as the prosecuting
officers are ready to receive them. Every
precaution will be taken to guard against
the possible loss of public documents of
any kind or the tampering with records
belonging to the different cases. In all
probability special agents may be kept
on constant watch for this purpose, and
it Is evident that It Is the Intention to
take no chances of this character..

Van Dusen Thinks He Will Not Be
Removed. '
Htmors that H. G. Van Dusen, State
Fish Warden, may be decapitated next
year, after the new Board of Fish Com
missioners shall have come Into office, do
not stick to the credulity of Mr. Van
Dusen, who says that he does not believe
the new board would turn him- out. after
his faithful service, any more than the
existing board would do, which is con
trolled by Secretary of State Dunbar and
State Treasurer Moore, against the mi
nority member. Governor Chamberlain.
The reason for this division on the pres
ent board Is that Mr. Van Dusen, like
the two majority members, la, a Repub
lican, while the Governor is a Democrat.
"I do not believe the stories are true,"
said Mr. Van Dusen last night, speaking
of them as being the hothouse crop of
somebody's Imagination. "If Democrats
had secured control of the commission, I
shuld expect to be forced out to make
room for a Democrat, and should have no
complaint to make. But Republicans will
continue to control the commission, and,
as I have always been a staunch Repub
lican, I do not see that politics can be
Invoked against me. As for my conduct
in the office, I have devoted myself Indus
triously to protection of the fish Indus
try." The two new Fish Commissioners are
to be Frank W. Benson, Secretary of
State-elect, and George Steel. State Treas
urer-elect. Since their election, enemies
of Mr. Van Dusen have been preparing for
a campaign for his removal. One of the
aspirants for the $2500 a year job Is said
to be H. A. Webster, of Clackamas, now
Deputy Warden. Should either Mr. Ben
son or Mr. Steel combine with Governor
Chamberlain for Mr. Van Dusen's re
moval, they would control the board, and
it is likely that the Governor would be
willing to go Into the alliance. Mr. Van
Dusen expects the opposition of the Gov
ernor, on account of the difference of their
politics and the fight which Van Dusen
made for WIthycombe In Clatsop County

GIVES ft ROSE SHOW
Grace Church Filled With the
Blossoms.
QUEEN OF AL FLOWERS
Frederick V. Holman Delivers Lec
ture in Which He Urges Port
land to Plant More Roses
and Keep Its Title.
The Portland rose was queen at Grace
Methodist Church last night. The Ladies'
Aid Society eave a show of roses that
splendidly represented the beauty of Port
land's favorite flower. Blossoms of every
color and variety known to Portland rose
gardens were there, the parlors of the
church being lined with them. .The roses
showed to splendid advantage, and the
large crowd, attending commented most
favorably on the exhibition.
Frederick V. Holman delivered a short
address on the rose that was the feature
of the evening, and was carefully listened
to by those who love the queen of all
flowers. Mr. Holman urged the planting
of more roses and the making of this city
worthy of the title of the "Rose City"
above all other places.
Urges Planting of Roses.
"Plant roses," said Mr. Holman, "plant
more roses and keep on planting roses.
Then get your friends to plant roses. I
am not fighting other flowers. Plant them,
too, if you want to, but plant roses first.
Give Portland a wider fame as the city
of roses.
"Roses have been the flower of the dom
inant races of all history. The Persians
grew them when at the height of their
power. Rome cultivated the rose while
the city on the seven hills was in her
prime. The flower is not found south of
the equator, but grows to perfection
among the conquering nations.
"The masters of Greek poetry wrote
of the rose, the Biblical authors praised
It. With the Aryan races the rose goes
back as far as tradition goes, and the
flower has come to be almost the em
blem of the race. But the roses of those
days, were not the roses we have today.
The flower had not reached the perfec
tion It now presents.
Portland Specially Suited.
"But few places anywhere are so well
suited to the- best development of the
rose as Is Western Oregon. In England
and Southern Germany the rose is cul
tivated extensively, but In neither place
does It grow-so well as In this climate.
The Winters in England are more se
vere; It takes more care and expense to
bring the flowers to a good stage of de
velopment, and while the wealthy classes
of England spend a good deal of money
In the cultivation of the flower. It doea
not have so general a culture nor en
joyment as It has here. In Germany the
rose Is also confined largely to the richer
classes, but here in Oregon there are
none so poor that they may not enjoy this
beautiful flower.
'California lacks the icllmate for the
perfect roses that Western Oregon grows.
Experts have tried for years to make the
rose attain Its best development In Cali
fornia, but in vain. While they can grow
the roses in houses to shut out the hot
rays of fhe sun, they cannot substitute
the moisture In the air of .the Oregon cli
mate that brings out the roses in the
Spring.
Appeals to Beauty Hunger.
"In growing roses all over Portland it
Is not the commercial spirit that animates
us. In growing more of this queen of
flowers we are feeding the beauty hunger
In the child, which is just as Important
as to meet the wants of the physical or
mental hunger."
Mr. Holman commanded close attention
throughout his address. He closed by
exhibiting some rather rare roses that
are not' In general cultivation, which he
picked from his own garden.
A rose drill by 11 young ladies from the
Gillespie School of Expression was a fea
