THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, SATURDAY,' NOVEMBER, 10. 1906. 6 ROBNETT UP FIRST Bank Clerk Charged With Sub ornation of Perjury. TRIAL IS TO BE AT MOSCOW William Dwyer, Charged With De frauding the Government of Land in Idaho, WilJ Be the Xext Man to Be Tried. MOSCOW, Idaho, Nov. 9. (Special.) i Clarence W. Robnett, bookkeeper of the Lewlston National Bank, will be the first defendant tried in what is known as the land-fraud cases, which are to come up at this term of the Fed eral Court. District Attorney Kulck this morning notified defendant's coun sel to that effect. The second defend ant to be tried Is -William Dwyer. Rob nett is charged with subornation of perjury and Dwyer is accused of de frauding the Government out of land. It Is supposed the cases against these defendants are probably the strongest, and for that reason the District Attor ney has elected to try them first, for the moral effect a conviction would have upon the regaining cases. Trial of the case of Robnett will be gin Monday. The trial jury has been summoned to report on that day, and the grand jury, also. There is no spe cial significance in the assembling of the grand jury, which always convenes with each term of court. Some rumors are afloat to the effect that the jury has been called ' for the purpose of promptly dealing with any witnesses who may not adhere strictly to the truth in their testimony in the land fraud cases. It Is also rumored that there will be some probing as to land dealing of some who are not now un der suspicion in the public eye. PUTER.

SQUABBLE OVER THE RANGE SHEEP AM) CATTIEOWNERS CAXXOT REACH TERMS. Government Agent May Be Com pelled to Take Arbitrary Action in Blue Mountain Reserve. SUMPTER. Or., Nov. 9. (Special.) Just 208 cattle and sheep men, owners or their agents, have been here for the past three days In almost hourly conference with the forest reserve officials, endeavoring to get their allotment of range area adjusted for 1S07. These men represent over 400 owners. whose holdings In stock and land exceed a valuation of $10,000,000. Therange in this division of the Blue Mountain reserve is about 300,000 acres, and applications call for almost as much more, even with the previous announcement that cuts off from 10 to 40 per cent in the number of sheep and cattle allowed for ne,xt year. Cattlemen charge that sheepmen want to "hog" the whole territory, and the same charge is made by the sheepmen against the cattlemen. The result thus far is hot a single agreement has been amicably made, and reserve officials will probably have to take arbitrary action next week in order to dispose of the mat ter. Owners of private timber lands amounting to over 100,000 acres, are get ting two and three times as much per acre as Is stated to be the price of the Government. Sheepmen charge that pri vate owners are favoring cattlemen and using their influence to get the Govern ment owners to do the same. Superintendent Sheller has innounced that small owners and men who person ally reside In the hills and have sheep or cattle will be the only ones favored. The only matter on which the two factions are a unit Is the fight to keep out all who were not in the range last year. . The meeting will probably be prolonged until next week, to await the presence of Western Reserve Chief A. F. Potter, of Washington, who is expected to settle dif ferences that have arisen. WRIGHTMAN SLATED TO GO Benson Will Make Drennan Head of Corporation Department. SALEM, Or., Nov. 9. (Special.) Frank T. Wrlghtman, head of the corporation department in the office of the Secretary of State, will not retain his position under F. W. Benson, against whom "Wrlghtman was a candidate for nomination. He will be succeeded by Walter Drennan, who was Benson's right-hand man in the pri mary campaign last Spring. Though Ben son has made no official announcement, he has been in Salem for several days, conferring with friends, and it is learned from a reliable source that Wrightman's term will end as soon as Benson's begins. Walter Drennan is a resident of Port land. For a number of years he was a locomotive engineer on the Southern Pa cific south of Roseburg but in 1901 he wan caught in a terrific head-on collision and lost his right arm. Since then he has heen: traveling for a railroad insurance concern. His large acquaintance and pop ularity among railroad men made him a valuable political supporter. In the pri mary campaign last Spring he devoted much of his time to Benson's cause, and it is understood that Benson credits his success to Drennan's work." After the primary election in April, it was found that in a number of places in Eastern Oregon in which Wrightman was supposed to be particularly strong in his candidacy, he ran short in votes and Ben son took the lead. This seemed to con firm a report that gained circulation at the time that "Wrlghtman made a trade with Benson and telegraphed his friends to support the latter. Since Benson's first act will be to sever "Wrightman's official head, this report must have been erroneous. There have been many aspirants for Wrightman's po sition, whicu is a desirable one, though the salary is but I1S00 a year. RAN'DS MAY BE PRESIDENT Three Washington State Senators El igible for the Place. SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 9. (Special.) Only four members of the next State Senate have seen more than two sessions' experience in the upper house, and ac cording to precedent the President pro tern of the Senate should be chosen from their number. All four of these men have been in the upper house since 1901. They are: T. B. Sumner, Everett; E. M. Rands, Vancouver; Lincoln Davis, Ta coma, and A. S. Ruth, Olympia. The Senate is overwhelming in its align ment for the Piles-Ankeny interests and it is probable that the President pro tern, will be a Senator who belongs to that faction. If this conclusion is held, Ruth will be read out of the list of eligibles, for he is not in good standing with the Piles-Ankeny organization. It Is not known whether Davis will ask for the election. Both Rands and Sumner would regard election as an houor and one of them may be chosen. Sumner wants to head the appropriations com mittee and has been promised that place. Rands has not made known his desires, but his terra of service will give him pretty much "what he desires. Senator George ii. Baker, of Goldendale, was President pro tern, two years ago and at the same time was .chairman of the appropriations committee. Avowed candidates for Speaker of the House are Joseph Megler, of Wahkiakum, and J. A. Falconer, of Everett. George T. Reid, of Peirce, is expected to be a candi date and members of the House expect that George E. Dickson of Kittitas, who outranks Falconer and Reid in Jength of service, will also ask the Speakership. JUTE SUPPLY SHORT Washington Board of Control Neglects to Order. FEW BAGS FOR FARMERS Mill at Walls Walla Penitentiary Has Been Practically Shut Down for Two Months for Lack of Material. TACOMA, Wash., Nov. 9. (Special.) As a result of neglect of the State Board of Control to secure a supply of Jute for operation of the grain bag factory in the State Penitentiary, farmers in Eastern Washington will be mulcted of $500,000 to $750,000, possibly more, during the coming season. The jute mill has been practically shut down the past two months, running less than one day a week, on account of lack of jute. It Is announced today by Warden Kincaid, who was chairman of the board up to two weeks ago, that no jute had yet been ordered. It will require at least 70 days for it to reach here, after being shipped from Calcutta. This will mean that less than a month's run can be secured before the sack sea son next year, and the output will be so small that it will not affect the market in the least. The Board of Control ex cuses Inaction on account of not having' money In the revolving fund. RECOUNT PROBABLE IN PACIFIC Returns Show McGowan and Bell Are Elected by Small Majorities. SOUTH BEND, Wash., Nov. 9. (Spe cial.) According to returns from all pre cincts but one in Pacific County and dis patches from Wahkiakum County on the State Senatorial election, Kleeb loses by 82 votes and Collings by 36. The former Is in the Nineteenth Senatorial District and the latter in this county for Rep resentative. This means the election of the first Democrats to the Legislature from this county in the persons of H. S. McGowan for the Senate and T. H. Bell for the house. Recount of the ballots will be asked for, as there are a number of circum stances which give reasons for believing that the result would thus be changed. All of the Republican county ticket is elected, except that J. J. Brumbach, Dem., is elected County Attorney and Mrs. C. A. Murdock, Dem., is elected County Superintendent of Schools. Annls' Reasons for Divorce. ACOMA. Nov. 9. (Special.) Five di vorces were granted in the ouperior Court by Judge Snell today.

Worst of all. he alleges, his wife eloped with Ed Olds, and is now living with him at Willets, Cal. Small Lead Over Judge Smith. BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 9. (Special.) A mistake was discovered today in figuring the Judgeship vote in Washington Coun ty. Its correction added 36 to the total for Bryan In that county. Two other precincts cut him down so that he now holds a lead of only 26 over Judge Frank Smith In the three counties of the dis trict. Fouf precincts remain to be re ported. f TAKE OF SALMON EGGS WARDEN VAX DCSEX MAKES RE PORT FOR OCTOBER. Coast-Stream Hatcheries Do Good Business, but Inland Plants Have a Poor Run. SALEM, Or., Nov. 9. (Special.) The re port of i.aster Fish "Warden H. G. Van Dusen for the month of October shows that the season's work has been satis factory in all Coast stream hatcheries, but not so good in the hatcheries on trib utaries of the Columbia. Regarding hatchery operations the report says: With the exception of a few more salmon to spawn at Ontario, we are through with the work of collecting- Chinook salmon spawn at our different hatcheries tributary to the Columbia River, and from reports received the following collections have been made: No. eggs taken. Salmon River hatchery 875,000 McKenile River hatchery station. .5, BiOvOOO Wallowa River hatchery S06.OO0 Ontario salmon hatchery 2,130,000 Total 9,571,000 In addition to the work done with the chlnooks, we are - now collecting sllverside spawn at our Salmon River hatchery and at the Wallowa hatchery, with prospects good for a fair sfpply of this variety of eggs at each station. From present appearances, the result at our Coast River hatcheries will be very different, and all will do exceptionally well and make collections far in exceBs of the funds available for the work of taking care of the young fry and keeping them until they should be turned out. With the exception of the Umpqna River hatchery, where the work was finished Oc tober 7, and a collection of 6,026,000 eggs made," all of the stations are in the midst, of their egg-taking season, which, with the chlnooks, will last throughout the month of November, and with the sllversides will last until near the latter part of December.
