' mony With the Board.
' SALEM, Or., Dec. 19. (Special.) That
he members of the State Board of Medi
cal Examiners form a "jack-pot" of the
fees received and divide the mjt receipts
equally among them, is the charge made
by Dr. F. E.- Moore, of Baker City, the
tew member appointed under that act of
!he last Legislature, providing for the ap
lointment of an osteopath. He wants to
mow whether this Is legal and in answer
o an Inquiry Attorney-General Crawford
la.s replied that it is not.
The law authorizes the medical ex-
f miners to hold an examination and
liarge a fee of ?10 for the purpose of
defraying the expenses thereof. Accord
ing to Dr. Moore's letter, the Board pays
expenses and then makes an equal divi
sion of the balance. Attorney-General
Yawford says, among other things:
"I fail to And any statutes which pro
irte for the payment of any salary or
fompensation to the Examining Board
or the time. It is my opinion that no
member of the Board is entitled to any
portion of said funds as a compensation.
His services are supposed to be gratui
tous, and he can be reimbursed only for
liis actual expenses."
i,He also says that the balance should be
kept in the hands of the treasurer to
jhiret any expenses that may hereafter
rlse.
t Only Pay Given to the Board. '
.' Dr. W. S. Mott, one of the members of
the Board, says that it has been the
practice of the Board to divide the money
In the manner described by Dr. Moore.
Tho time of the members of the Board
has been considered one of the expenses
knd the money has been divided as a
jncans of paying the members in part for
ilieir time."" " "" "
'I think this is""a proper item of ex
icnsei" said Dr. Mott", in,, discussing the
natter. "If Dr. Moore does not think
ils time is -worth anything and does not
ant the money, I- presume the -board
will be willing to take him at his own es
timate and not include him in the divir
Bion. . ' '
"At the. same time, it is worth .while to
mention that at the last examination Dr.
Moore received the same compensation for
Expenses is otheF 'members of- the board
and perornied--no BefvioewhaSteVer." He
flld not examine any one: Since 'his own
estimate of himself is perhaps correct in
asking for no compensation, perhaps the
board would be wis l-fakin his; esti
mate of th"e, value 6f his' services. .:' 'rl,'
Members', Time Worth Something.
"Three examinations, are .held each
year, with about 35 applicants present.
Each member of the Board attends part
of one day-to conduct -a part - of the ex
amination. I do not know, the exact
amount received or the amount of ex
penses. I should Judge that sometimes
the amount . received by .-the members
would be mora than they -would make in
their offices at home during the same
time, and sometimes it would be less. We
believe that paying the members for their
time is a legitimate expense of the ex
amination." The secretary of the Board, Dr. By
ron H. Miller, of Portland, handles the
funds and keeps the .accounts. The mem
bers of the board are: Dr. W. E. Carll.
Oregon City; Dr. B.' E. Miller, Portlands
Dr. A. B. Gillis, Salem;iDr. W. S. Mott,
Salem; Dr. Panton, Portland.
Dr. Byron H. Miller 'i said last night
when Dr. Moore's criticism was read to
him:
Moore Not in Harmony.
"I think Dr. Mott's Idea is correct and
will be shared by any fair-minded man.
The members are never paid any more
than their time is worth. They devote
not only their time during the examina
tion but several days afterward, as there
are often many papers to be passed on,
some of the questions being .frequently
several pages In length.
"When Dr. Moore was made a member
of the board every courtesy was shown
him. He had, however, many ideas that
the other members of the board did not
concur in."
FRESHMEN WIN CLASS RUN
Fleet-Fooled Slevera Gets First
Place and $2 0 Gold Medal.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,

JOLT TO DEFENSE
State, Presents Testimony
Damaging to Pettibone.
CHARLIE NEVILLE WITNESS
Son of Man Orchard Was Sent to
Kill Because He "Knew . Too
Much," Tells of Talk Father
Had With the Defendant.
BOISE, Dec. 19. New and damaging
testimony was presented by the state
today in the trial of George A. Petti
bone, for the murder of ex-Governor
Frank Steunenberg. Charlie Neville, 17
years old, son of John Neville, whom
Orchard said he was directed by Moyer
to kill, because he "knew too much,'
was the chief witness of the day, tell
ingr of his hunting trip with his father
and Orchard. On the night of the In
dependence depot explosion,' the boy
said. Orchard left their camp early in
the night and- did not return until dawn,
corroborating Orchard's testimony on
that point. When the trio went to Den
ver, young Neville stated, he and . his
father went to Pettibone's store and
his father had a long talk with Petti
bone, parts of which he overheard.
"Then I will squeal," was one of the
remarks he said he heard his father
make. .They also went to Western Fed
eration headquarters, he said, and his
father had a long talk with a man
whom he did not know and' could not
identify.
Will Call Orchard's Wife.
Young Neville was not a. witness In
the Haywood trial. He was brought to
Boise but was not placed upon tho
stand. It was expected that Mrs. Ida
Toney, second wife of Harry Orchard,
would also testify today, but the cress
examination of Neville had been only
fairly begun when the hour of adjourn
ment was reached.
Mrs. Toney will be called- tomorrow
and the state will rest its case after
her testimony. , '
. Orchard was upon tlie sta.nd most of
the day. but his re-dlrect examination
brought out no new points.
How Over Fred Miller.
. When the trial was resumed this after
noon Senator Borah Inquired of counsel
for the defense If Fred Miller, the Spo
kane attorney, who assisted the defense
In the Haywood trial, would be In Boise
during the present trial. He is wanted
as a state witness. Wilson- said he was
not connected with the defense. A warm
argument ensued in which Judge Wood
took a hand, stating that it Miller was
no longer counsel In the case, his name
should be withdrawn.
Orchard again took the stand, and his
re-direct examination continued by Haw
ley. A letter written by Orchard to
Charles Shodde," Was placed In evidence.
It stated that If Shodde wanted -to take
a chance with him, to come on, as he
had plenty of mpney and the proposition
was a "two-time winner." Orchard said
the proposition referred to in the letter
was the killing of Governor Steunenberg.
Charlie Neville was next called. He
told of a trip he made with his father
and Orchard to Wyoming. . Orchard left
camp to have a wagon wheel Tepaired.
The witness said that before Orchard
left he saw him count out $500 and loan
It to his father. A' little time later, he.
said, Ws father was -arrested and taken
back to Cripple. Creek, charged with blowing,-.up
the Independence Depot. After
his release they went to Denver! he said,
and to Pettibone's store, where his
father and Pettibone engaged in a long
conversation during which he heard his
father say:
Threatened to Squeal.
"I will squeal." Then they went to
Federation headquarters 1 and his father
and another man he did not know
went into a room and had a long talk.
On cross-examination Neville said he
had been brought here by a Pinkerton
detective who slept In the same room
with him and was with him all the time.
He denied that suggestions had been
made to him in regard to his testimony
by Pinkertons or any one else.

MEMBERS OF MULTNOMAH THE
guests' OF FAIRVIEW.
Petition Relative o Amendment of
Initiative and Referendum
Law Is Adopted.
CLEONE, Or., - Dec. 19.-(Spedial.)-Multnomah
County Pomona Grange rget
here yesterday .the guests of Fairvlew
Grange. This being the last quarterly
session of the year the business done was
partially a review of the past, together
with preparations for an aggressive cam
paign next year. Several important mat
ters were discussed, the principal one
being a petition authorized by the ex
ecutive committee of the Oregon Btate
Grange in accordance with authority
from that body at its Hood River ses
sion last May. The petition Is on a pro
posed amendment to the constitution of
Oregon upon the Initiative and referen
dum, and provides that Article IV of the
constitution shall be amended as follows:
Article IV of tho Constitution of the
Btate of Oregon shall be and is hereby
amended by inserting the following section
after section 22 and before section 23 in
said article, and it shall be designated as
"section 22a" of said article IV.
Section 22a. The Legislative Assembly
she'll not, directly or indirectly, repeal, or
amend, or In anywise modify any act or
law enacted by the people or legal voters
of the State of Oregon in the exercise of
the Initiative power reserved to them by this
Constitution; the power to repeal, amend or
modify any such act or law to bs and re
main exclusively in the legal voters of the
State.
' The resolution to adopt was carried by
a large vote after a lengthy discussion
In which, several speakers asserted that
the proposed amendment was too radical
and sweeping in lta nature. A large
number of copies of the petition were
distributed to the representatives of each
subordinate Grange- for circulation and
signatures. In accordance with the in
tention of the State-Grange the . matter
will come up at the next general state
election for ratification by the voters of
the state.
Another question very dear to the
hearts of every Granger is that of postal
savings banks and the parcels post. Two
resolutions were introduced upon these
subjects and approved by a unanimous
vote. They express firm disapproval of
the action of Speaker Cannon and are
outspoken In their demands - upon the
Oregon delegation in Congress. The one
on parcels post follows:
Whereas, the Speaker of the House of
Representatives of the United States has
made use of the powers- of his office to
prevent the introduction of any bill relating
to-.the establishment- of sv parcels post and
the consequent discussion thereof.
Resolved. That it iBt the sense of Mult
nomah Pomona Grange that the executive
committee of the Oregon State Grange be,
and is hereby requested to make known to
the Oregon Congressional delegation the
posltlm of. our Grange upon said matter

Tho same proceedure was taken upon a
resolution concerning postal savings

deaths of Giistav Peterson, of Evening
Star Grange, and Mrs. Florence Robbins,
of Falrvlew Grange, were adopted and

A motion was carried fixing the yearly
dues hereafter at 25 cents a year. The
membership has grown to about 700 and
as the only expense is the cost of enter
taining once every three months, that sum
was deemed sufficient for all purposes.
The next session will be held at Even
ing Star Hall, the) third Wednesday in
March.
Reports from th secretaries of the 10
subordinate) granges of Multnomah County
show a total membership of 1062. Practi
cally all these members, live east of the
Willamette River and over nine-tenths
of them east of Mount Tabor. Their
numbers are increasing constantly, the
late fair at Gresham having been a great
Incentive to applications for membership.
The evening session was taken up with
conferring the fifth degree on 30 new
members and the rendition of a musical
and literary programme, under direction
of the Pomona lecturer, Mrs. Ida M.
Thorpe.
DISPUTES RIGHT TO FAME
Seattle Man Claims Honor of Tak
ing Scalp of Lame Deer.
SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 19. (Special.)
Charles A. Davis, of Seattle, a well
known man about town, arises a nemesis,
to confound the veracity of the author
of an article In the November Pacific
Monthly, which has to do with the kill
ing of Lame Deer, the Sioux Chieftain,
who attempted to assasinate General
Nelson A. Miles in an Indian village on
the banks of the Little .Muddy. May 6,
1877. The writer In question says that a
half-breed scout named Jackson killed
Lame Deer and presented his scalp,
which Included the ears, to General Miles;
Davis was a trooper in the Second
United States Cavalry and one of those
who hurried, but too late, to the aid of
Custer, and has documentary evidence to
support his oft-told story of how he
killed Lame Deer, Just In time, to save
General Miles, and he Is angry at the
author of the Pacific Monthly story.
Furthermore, Davis declares, and he has
often told the same story, that he re
moved Lame Deer's scalp in a neat
manner and presented It to General Miles.
Davis declares that the only scout who
went into the Custer fight was one Mitz
booy, whose body was never found and
who has never been heard of since. Davis
says Jackson is a myth so far as the
Custer massacre and subsequent events
are concerned.
