SQUATTERS OUSTED Priest and Fogarty Receive Patents to Homesteads. VICTORY FOR SETTLERS Decision In Test Cases .Arising Out of Disputed Claims on Siletz Reservation Causes Re joicing at Newport. NEWPORT. Or.. Sept. 7. (Special.) What will the squatters In the Slletx reservation do? Is the question asked to day. Word has been received from the Portland Land Office that Frank Priest and John Fogarty. on whose claims squatters were located by Portland at torneys, had been awarded their patents. As these two cases were the test cases of the Government there Is not only great jubilation In Newport over the outcome, but there is also the problem of what the squatters will do. These men paid large sums of money to be located on the disputed claims and have steadfastly refused to recognize civil writs, asserting that their rights were defined and that they would not quit under any circumstances. The word of the decision of the Land Office In the test cases is taken as an earnest of the promises made by the Washington authorities. Inspector Horace Jones has been de tailed to Investigate the other con-tests now pending and he Is now on the ground. The settlers are much rejoiced at this opportunity to assert their rights and are confident of a speedy hearing. AGENTS .ARE INVESTIGATING Commissioner Desires to Dispose of Contests Without Delay. The report that the homestead claims of Frank Priest and John Fogarty had passed to patent was confirmed by the Land Office officials here yesterday. Regarding the position of the men who squatted on these claims, it already has been published that they have gained nothing through their efforts to establish a rightful claim to the land originally filed on by Priest and Fogarty. It is the policy of Commissioner Den nett, of the General Land Office, as he recently declared, to consider all squat ters in the light of trespassers and a further occupation of land by them after patents have been Issued amounts to trespass and all such trespassers can be arrested and prosecuted under the state statutes. If the squatters paid a fee for being located on the lands that were being held up in the General Land Office, they are the loser and have absolutely no recourse. In the first place the proceeding was questionable and Commissioner Dennett has said that the Government does not for an instant propose to back them up In their efforts unlawfully to Intimidate or to acquire land that had'been settled on in good faith by others. Several special agents have been sent Into the Sllets district by L. R. Glavls, chief of the field division for this district, to make careful Investigations as to the improvements on the different claims which are awaiting the issuance of patents by the General Land Office. These Investigations are being conducted at the direction of Commissioner Dennett who Is desirous Of disposing of the contests against these lands which have been held up for about eight years in many in stances. Where there is evidence to show that the original settler acted in good faith and complied with the land laws. In residing upon and cultivating the land included within his entry, favorable re ports will be made by the special agents and patents to the lands will.be issued to settlers without further delay.
