proposition to ex. lude the two town,
from terminal freight rates. A e'mU
of prominent men of Honu.am has
fceen -elected to attend the meeting of
tne Chamber of Commerce of th.s cltj
T.day nucht and take definite action
. to the plan of campaign to be fol-
lr,Aerrieetir of lumbermen of Aberdeen
snd Hoquiam was held in this city today,
and while it is not recognized particular-
as a lumbermen fiKht. owing to
ti-e"f-t that lumber has been eliminated
fr'nm the new schedule. It was the con-i-lulnn
that indirectly it affected the
lumber Intereots. for the reason that if
a millowner decides to put in new ma
chinery, for Instance, the schedule will
affect this line of freight. The point was
also made at the merlins that in taxing
all other manufacturers and dealers other
than lumbermen, the Northern Tacific is
discriminating and is violating one of
the chief feature of the interstate com
merce law.
Road Violates Old Contract.
It was the consensus of opinion that
under a contract made by the Northern
Pacific Company in IK'T. when the rail
road was extending to Hoquiam, that
the exclusion of the harbor cities from
terminal risht annot be applied.
At the time this contract was made the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company had
Just been reorganized and was without
available funds to make extensions to its
system. In HS7, throush the Grays Har
bor Company, the Katft Hoquiam Com
pany and the Harbor Land Company,
negotiations had been Tending for sev
eral yeans for the extension of the North
ern Pacific, which then terminated on
the east side of the Wiahkiah River in
Aberdeen, to the mill situated on the
west ide of the Hoquiam River in llo
iiuiam. During these negotiations the
railway company went through foreclos
ure ' proceedings and w as reorganized,
f'pon final termination of the negotia
tions the only terms which could be se
cured for the exlenston of the railroad to
Hoquiam waa Included in the contract.
Ilnqtiaini Raised Fund in 189 7.
These terms were very hard and very
difficult to consummate in the hard times
of lsl'7. The land companies believed it
vital to restore tile value of their prop
erties that the railroad be extended at
that time. The conditior imposed were:
First A free right of way from the
railway station in Aberdeen, east of the
YVishkah River, thence across the Wtsh
kah River throusli the ity of Aberdeen
and the towo of Hoquiam to the mills in
Hoquiam. together with free sitea for
d-pots in both cities.
Second The Grays Harbor Company, in
whose name the negotiations had been
pending, was to put in JM0 in cash, and
the further sum of fc-T.IM) if required.
To secure the right of way the mills
and the citizens of Hoquiam raised the
sum of $10.x0 for the purchase of water
front on tile Wishkah River and for the
right of way through Aberdeen, and this
fund was all uxed In securing it.
Lumber Companies Issue Bonds.
To raise the cash required, the Grayo
Harbor Company, the Harbor Land Com
pany and the Kast Hifciuiam Company
bonded their lands for the sum of J10O,
0"0. of which was first mortgage
bonds and JlO.tvo pecond mortgage bonds.
These bonds were then sold at a dis
count at a net price of ) cents on the
dollar, which netted the amount required.
The Northern Pacific, under this con-t-act.
agreed to refund the 1W.00O or more
if put up by the Grave Harbor Company,
hut nothing for the right of way or de
pot sue. Only K-o.O.O was required, and
'this sum was paid back by the railroad
e mpany. thus leaving the land com
panies with a d-ht of Jfct.on). These bonds
were paid off by the land companies three
years ae".
Agreed to t;ive Favored Rates.
In addition to this sum. JtS.'X was sub
scribed by mill companies and land com
p.irle. Kor this large outlay the North
ern Pacific Company entered into an
agreement guaranteeing' rates on lumber
specifically, and which ail shippers of
t.h harbor say should be applied to other
commodities. It is believed by some bus
iness men that the proposed action means
a Ions and stubborn fight. One or tne
plar.s advancrd is to raise a fund or
:. to eecure an Injunction and carry
on the war in other directions. Others re
gard the contract of 1W as sufficient and
that the company cannot act contrary to
Its terms.

SHEEPHEB AHBEHED BT BUT
BELIEVE RANGE ALLOTMENT
SHOULD NOT BE REDUCED.
In Three Years Reduction Has
Amounted to 40 Per Cent in
Wenaha Forest,
PENDLETON', Or, Nov. 22. (Spe
cial.) "The Forestry Department Is
simply trying to drive us out of busi
ness." declared William Slusher, ex-K-presentative
from Umatilla County
and a prominent sheepman, when told
yesterday of the big cut to be made in
tlie number of sheep to be allowed
upon the Wenaha Forest Range next
year. Announcement of the cut. which
amounts on the average to about S
per cent, has Just been received from
J. !. S'-iimitz. the Supervisor In charge.
Three years ego a cut of 20 per cent
was made. last year it was 12 per
cent and the new cut brings the total
reduction for the three years to 40
per cent.
The reason they give us Is that
the range will not stand to be pas
tured so heavily as last year, but I have
been in the sheep business long enough
to know something about the range
and what it will stand. I have run
sheep in the Wenaha Forest for a num
ber of years, and I never saw the
range in better condition than It was
this Fall. This. too. despite the fact
that the present Summer was one of
the driest in the history of the sheep
Industry In Eastern Oregon. I cer
tainly cannot see any real need for re
duction. Neither can any other sheep
man who is using the range in the
Wenaha Forest."
This year's cut affects the large
sheepowners more than the small ones.
Flocks of over 3noo will be cut 20
per cent, while those of under 2000
will be allowed on the Range without
any reduction.
News Notes of Portland
High Schools.
East Side.
TT1 the week the students at the East
f Side High School have been plugging
away at their mid-term examinations, and
the regular school programme has been
omitted. A week's vacation has been an
nounced for Thanksgiving.
The Lens staff has turned out the finest
specimen of a school paper that has ever
been seen in this city. The paper has im
proved remarkably and every department
Is doing better work than has appeared
In the Lens yet. Printing, illustrating and
binding are remarkably well done, and a
good quality of paper has been used
throughout. In this last number are some
very good stories, poems and editorials.
Earl Robinson, the editor, has turned out
a number without a poor article in the
whole issue. A number of really good
poems are the gathering of a live poetry
committee. Elolse Clouse. Elllce Shearer,

ON TRIAL FOR LIFE
Walter Johnson Must Answer
for Killing E. Perdue,
PRISONER HAS CONFESSED
Washington County Authorities, So
Far, Have Been Unable to
Positively Identify John
son's Victim.
HILLSBORO. Or.. Nov. 22. ( Special.)
Judge Thomas A. McBride will open
Circuit Court In this city tomorrow morn
ing. The criminal trial of interest is that
of Walter Johnson, charged with the
murder of Elmer Perdue. The crime, ac
cording to Johnson's confession, was
committed early on the morning of July
4. in a cabin a few miles above Buxton,
the terminus of the Pacific Railway &
Navigation's proposed line to Tillamook.
Johnson, after arrest, stated to the
officers that he and Perdue slept in the
cabin on the old F. C. Burgholzer place.
About 4 o'clock the next morning they
were both awake, when an altercation
was indulged In. Johnson claims that
Perdue started for his gun when he
(Johnson) fired, killing Perdue almost in
stantly. .
He then robbed the body of something
like J140. after which he carried It into
a deep ravine and hid it beneath some
fallen timber. Johnson then returned to
the cabin, cooked and ate his breakfast,
and then walked to Buxton. From there
he walked to Forest Grove and took pas
sage on the Southern Pacific Into Port
land. The officers suspected Johnson from
the time the body was discovered, about
three weeks after the crime. Johnson
went into hiding, but was finally appre
hended In an East Portland restaurant,
arrested, and. after making a confession,
lodged In the Hlllsboro Jail to await trial.
All efforts to locate the former home
of Perdue have so far failed. A woman
writing from Sparta, N. C. claims that
Perdue must be her husband, but the
tenor of her missive shows that she Is
more interested In the financial end of
the transaction than In he fact that her
husband might be the victim, for she sev
eral times asked Sheriff Hancock to send
her any money that was found on the
body. The Marshal of Morencl. Mich.,
writes that a Henry Perdue, of that
place, says that in 1880 he had a cousin,
then a young man. running a drugstore
at Allerton. Ia.. and the authorities are
taking up this thread, with the hope of
finding something tangible about Per
due's past.
Johnson first met Perdue In Portland,
looking for timber land. He took Perdue
out on two trips to the mountains, and
on June 29 Perdue filed on a piece of tim
ber land, with Johnson as the first of the
four witnesses on his filing. This' was
the first reliable clew that the officers
found showing that Johnson and Perdue
had been together, and from this Infor
mation followed that which eventually
landed the prisoner in the custody of the

fathet being the late Charles Johnson, at
one time a saloon-keeper at Cornelius,
and later a hopgrower on Chehalem
Mountain, near the Yamhill line. He is

has borne a not bad reputation. He is
married to Jessie Thomas, a daughter of

section. One child is the product of the

HNS TO FORM SOCIETY
MOVEMENT AHOXG XEZ PEKCES
FOR ASSOCIATION.
Will Be Both Political and Social in
Character and Has Sanction
of Chief Moses.
LEWISTON. Idaho. Nov. 22. (Spe
cial.) Leaders of the Nez Perces Indian
tribe will meet In Kamiah November
2s to organize an Indian society for
social and political purposes. The
.movement has the approval of Chief
Moses and Is expected to grow into a
large and powerful organization. It
will be the only one of Its kind in the
Northw-est. if not In the United States.
Corbett Lawyers, secretary to Super
intendent Lipps. a Carlisle graduate,
and James Stewart, of Kooskia. a Gov
ernment civil engineer, will organize
the association and draft the constitu
tion. While it will have a social side,
the association will have considerable
political significance, as the Indians
will devise plans for tribe protection,
which will be sought through the me
diation of the association with the In
dian Department.
As the association wUl be organized
by Government employes who are rec
ognized leaders of the progressive In
dians, it is believed that much good
can be accomplished. The scope of the
organization will not be absolutely de
termined until the meeting called for
November 29 Is held, but it is believed
that it will be of such a nature as to
attract a large membership. The In
dians will follow the suggestion of
Chief Moses, who will assist in the
organization.

MEN STILL KEPT ON SHIPS
Authorities Continue Negotiation!
Between Manila and Washington.
MANILA. Nov. 22. The ouestlon of al
lowing the men from the Atlantic battle
ship fleet to come ashore on account of
the cholera situation in Manila is still
under discussion. There has been an ex
change of cablegrams between Governor
General Smith and Secretary of War
Wright on the subject, but no orders have
yet been received from .Washington.
The decision of the Washington author
ities, it Is believed, largely hinges on the
special report made to the Secretary of
War by Commissioner Dean C. Worcester,
giving a history of the cnoiera m mo
Philippines, discussing and criticising the
methods of fighting the plague and which
is said to Include strong criticisms of the
municipal officials of Manila for failing
to clean and drain certain portions of
the city and outlying districts.
In response to the request of the Secre
tary of War for a report upon the pres
ent conditions in Manila. Commissioner
Worcester declared that the epidemic was
over more than three weeks ago and that
there ia no danger whatever now. in per
mitting the men of the fleet to land.
Governor-General Smith has written to
Rear Admiral Sperry proposing that a
part of the programme originally planned
by the city for the entertaining of the
fleet be now carried out.
There has been but one case of cholera
and two suspects in Manila during the
past four days.
HUES OUT STRDKG CASE
SHERIFF TRACES MOVEMENTS
OF SUSPECTED FOOTPAD.
Forges Link in Chain of Evidence
Connecting Cartridges and
Coat With Prisoner.
SALEM. Or., Nov. 22. (Special.)
Sheriff Minto has materially strength
ened the case against Homer Black,
who is under arrest charged with
shooting Dr. C. H. Robertson last Fri
day night. The footpad who held up
Dr. Robertson fired two shots. The
revolver found on Black showed un
mistakable signs that two chambers cf
the cylinder had been recently fired,
though all were full when the revolver
was taken. Today an examination dis
closed that two cartridges in the re
volver are bright, while the other four
are tarnished. It is well known that
if kept for a time in a revolver cart
ridges become tarnished but if carried
loose in a pocket, as Black carried his
supply of ammunition, they keep
bright. Further comparison of the
cartridges In Black's possession when
captured with those in the pocket of
the overcoat that had been thrown
away, proves conclusively that it was
Black who threw c way the coat.

When their boat was smashed on the

they reached shore, where for a week
they subsisted on raw clams. They
