HALEY TO BE TRIED
With 11 Other Umatilla Men
Must Face Charges. .
LAND FRAUDS ARE ALLEGED
"Indictment Specifies Improper Ac
quiring of 50,000 Acres of Unal
lotted Indian jnd De
murrer I Overruled.
Colonel J. II. Raley and 11 other
prominent I'matina County citizens
will be required to stand trial In the
Ignited States Court this Fall on In
dictments charging them improperly
with acquiring possession of 30,000
acres of unallotted Indian lands in
that county. In the Federal Court yes
terday. United States Judge Wolverton
overruled the demurrer of the defend
ants to the indictment, which had been
attacked because of its alleged insuf
ficiency. In these cases, the Indictments were
returned June 8. 190S. The specific
charpe against the several defendants
Is that they solicited and procured per
sons to make fraudulent applications
and affidavits for the purchase of the
I'matilla lands, and. or a consideration,
induced the applicants at the time
they applied for the lands, or prior
thereto, to make contracts whereby it
was agreed that the lands so purchased
should Inure to the benefit of the de
fendants. In addition to Colonel Raley. the
other prominent defendants included in
the indictments, and who are interested
i KA tafnii nf th Ralev case, are:
William Slusher. Joint Representative
from Morrow and Umatilla Counties in
the 1907 session of the State Legisla
ture; Alonso Knotts. John W. Crow.
John M. Wynn. William Caldwell and
C. W. Mathews, wealthy ranchers and
sheepmen, and John Wert, formerly an
official in the First National Bank of
Pendleton. The other less prominent
, defendants are: Bailey Ross and
Samuel Olmstead, wooddealers, and
William Rahe. a horse trainer. These
are alleged by the Government to have
' acted as Held lieutenants for the others.
Colonel Raley Is named for defendant
In six of the seven Indictments, while
: Mr. Slusher and Mr. Rahe are con
i fronted with two counts each.
' REVENUE TAX MUST BE PAID
Judge Bean Renders Important De
cision In Federal Court.
The sale of goods liable to the lnter
; nal revenue tax In the different states
is not exempt from the payment of that
I tax even if the original owners of the
! goods do not have an established office
' in the state in which they undertake to
transact business. This was the effect
of a decision rendered in the Federal
Court yesterday by United States Judge
Bean.
The case decided was that of Adolph
de Barry against Partd M. Dunne, Col
lector of Internal Revenue for the Dis
trict of Oregon. This was a proceed
ing to recover from the United States
about $300 Internal revenue which the
complainant company had paid in this
state under a protest. It was j-epre-sented
by the complainant company
that it had paid a license covering the
sale of liquors In the state of New York
and simply maintained a warehouse in
this city from which Hs goods were
delivered to customers.
Judge Bean decided that the method
by which the company transacted busi
ness constituted a regular business in
this state, and for that reason made
the company liable to the payment of
a tax on Its' business in this state in
addition to a tax It was paying in the
state of New York. The suit was de
cided in favor of the contentions of
United States Attorney McCourt.
DOCKET TO BE CLEARED
ACTION TAKEN TO DISPOSE OF
FEDERAL CASES.
JTich Litigation I Found to Be
Pending When First Law and
Order Day Is Observed.
When United States Judge Wolverton
yesterday convened the Federal Court,
he was faced by probably the largest
delegation of Portland lawyers that ever
appeared in the Federal building at any
time: The occasion for this general re
sponse on the part of lawyers having
business before the United States Court,
was the inauguration of a new system
bv Federal Judges Wolverton and Bean.
This system provides that beginning yes
terday, every Monday shall be law and
motion day. when all cases pending on
the docket shall be called and all pend
ing motions and other proceedings to
the trial of cases not disposed of shall
be considered and passed on.
It developed yesterday when Clerk
Marsh submitted his initial calendar that
there were about 100 cases pending be
fore the court in which preliminary mo
tions had not been disposed of. Of that
number, however. Clerk Marsh explains
that at least 90 per cent of the cases had
been instituted within the last six
months. Clerk Marsh also is authority
for the statement that not more than
half a dosen cases have been pending
before the Federal tribunal for any
greater length of time and he says the
reason these cases have not been disposed
of has been due entirely to the failure
of the interested lawyers to appear in
court when such "cases properly should
have been- considered.
Of the 10 cases referred it, it is learned
that not less than 45 are suits brought
by Individuals against the Oregon A Cali
fornia Railroad Company, all relating to
the purchase of lands, alleged unlaw
fully to be withheld by that corporation
from purchase and settlement. Every
one of these cases, however. Is dependent
In its final adjustment, on the ruling
of the court In the suit of the Govern
ment against this corporation for the
cancellation of the grant by whloh the
title to approximately S.OOO.000 acres In
this state were acquired. In this main
suit, a demurrer by the railroad com
pany to the Government's bill of com
plaint has been argued and submitted,
end a decision by Judge Wolverton on
that feature of the case is pending. The
effect of this decision alone will vitally
concern the standing in court of these
a litigants.
Among the other cases Included m- the
docket are several suits relating to the
allotment of Indian lands. There has
been no particular disposition to hasten
these cases, but the new rules of the
court will have the effect of expediting
the conclusion of all litigation pending
before the United States Court. It Is
the desire of Judges Wolverton and Bean
to clear up the docket Just as rapidly
as the co-operation of the Interested law
yers and the- rules of the, oourt wiU-en-,

KRIBS PLEA IS REFUSED
JITST XOW DEFEND TITLE TO
IiAXD CLAIMED.'
Suit in Which Government Alleges
Fraud in Getting Timber Land
1VIII Continue In Courts.
Another echo from the celebrated "11-7"
cases Involved In the Oregon land-fraud
prosecutions was heard la the United
States Court yesterday, when United
States Judge Wolverton overruled the
plea In abatement of Frederick A. Kribs
In the suit of the United States against
Basil W. Wagner et at. to cancel patent
to 160 acres of valuable timber land.
It developed in the hearing of -argument
on this motion, that under the alias
of Zenas K. Watson, Wagner obtained
title to the IfiO acres of land and after
wards transferred It to Krlbs. Kribs
represented to the court that subsequent
to obtaining title to the land, which was
Included in a forest reserve, he sold it to
A. N. Johnson for $5.60 an acre, at the
same time giving Johnson a power of at
torney by which Johnson applied to the
Interior Department to exchange the
quarter" section for lieu land. In his
pleadings. Krlbs set up the fact that by
reason of this transaction. Johnson was
an indispensable party defendant to the
suit.
In overruling Kribs' plea in abatement.
Judge Wolverton held that the action of
Kribs in giving Johnson a power of at
torney did not vest Johnson with any In
terest In the land. Whatever was done
In the matter of relinquishment and ap
plication for selection of lieu land, an
nounced the court, was done by Johnson
as the agent of Kribs and not as tha
owner of the land in controversy or of
any Interest In It.
It Is now up to Kribs further to defend
In the courts his alleged title to the land
which the Government authorities Insist
was actually acquired through fraud.
Desfhutes Suit Transferred.
The suit of the Deschutes Railroad Com
pany against the Oregon Trunk and Por
ter Bros., seeking to restrain the de
fendants from trespassing upon the al
leged rights of way of the plaintiff cor
poration along the Deschutes River, was
yesterday transferred - to the United
States Court in this city for final trial
and determination. This proceeding was
instituted by the Karri man road In the
state Circuit Court for Sherman County
on August 2, last.
CHEAP PAVEMENT DECRIED
Mayor Simon Emphatically Not in
Favor of Wooden Improvement.
In vetoing the two ordinances passed
by the Council which provide for the
improvement of Harold avenue, from the
Milwaukee County road to the Midway
Annex, and Princeton street, from OHn
street to McKenna avenue. Mayor Simon
yesterday placed his stamp of disapproval
on cheap pavement, which he thinks in
the end is the most coptly.
The two ordinances provide for the
same kind of improvements, which In
clude wooden sidewalks and curbs. The
city, the Mayor thinks, demands some
thing better.
'The wooden improvements," said
the Mayor yesterday, "cost about half
as much as cement, but will only last
a phort time. But that Is not the only
objection to the wood. It Is unsanitary
and unsightly, and for these reasons
should not be Installed."
Ten ordinances for street improve
ment passed by the Council at the last
meeting of that body, will be returned to
It without the signature of the Mayor.
The improvements provided in these or
dinances are for grading and macadamiz
ing. kinds of improvement the Mayor
does not favor. It is his opinion that
hard-surface payement should be. made
wherever possible. He did not veto the
ordinances, for he thought it possible
that in some instances there might be
reasons why the more expensive class
of pavements could not be made at the
present time, and the Council can use its
own Judgment In each case.
Several ordinances passed by the Coun
cil providing for payments from the gen
eral fund of warrenta held by eon
tractors, were . signed by the Mayor
yesterday. Tl.ese represent payments
amounting to a total of about 10,000.
1
EXTENSION NOT FAVORED
Mayor Will Return Ordinance to
Lengthen Alder Street.
Msyor Simon will not sign the ordi
nance passed by the Council providing
for the extension of Alder street from
Chapman to Nineteenth street, and he
will simply return it in its present form
to the Council without his veto.
In speaking of the ordinance- yester
day, the Mayor refused to give his defi
nite reasons for refusing to sign It, say
ing simply that it did not entirely satisfy
him. 2. '
The report of the viewers, on which
tba provisions of the . ordlnanee was
based, provides for the payment of $43,000
to Mrs. Katherine A. Daly, who owns
the property through which the street is
to pass. This must be paid by the dis
trict which will get the benefit of the
extension.
Although the Mayor did not give this as
his reason, it is understood he is not
satisfied with the price allowed. The
property in question "is a triangular
piece of land, of rather small dimensions,
one side of which faces on Washington
street. If it ever becomes a part of
Alder street, the latter will open directly
into Washington street.
The ordinance will be returned to the
Council at Its next meeting, and it is
possible a new board of viewers will be
appointed to place an estimate of value
on the property. In case It Is found the
Mayor would favor such an action.
BIG BASIN IS FEARED
MOUNT TABOR CITIZEN'S WANT
CITT TO CHANGE PLANS.
Cluh Believes Property Will Be Men
aced if Reservoir Wall Is
35 Feet High.
That the new Mount Tabor reservoir,
which is to be built on the eastlds
of West avenue, will prove a serious
menace to the property below it, if it is
constructed according to the present
plans, was declared to be the sense of
the Mount Tabor Push Club, as its
meeting last night in the Portland San
itarium. The matter was brought to
the attention of the club by A. B. Jack
son, who has a home on West avenue.
It is proposed that the West avenue
side of the reservoir be filled up to a
height of 35 feet, whloh will raise the
reservoir wall far above Mr. Jackson's
home.
Mr. Jackson said he had laid the mat
ter before the Water Board and asked
it to Investigate the situation and
lower the reservoir so that the West
avenue wall will be only ten feet high.
Instead of 35 feet. He set forth that
there will be 75,000,000 gallons of water
in this reservoir. Mr. Jackson said he
had made arrangements so that over
200,000 yards of dirt could be dumped
on property below, and thought 500.
000 yards could be provided for, so the
Qisposal of the dirt would not stand in
the way of lowering the wall. to ten
feet. The club then passed resolutions
declaring that the reservoir should be
lowered to ten feet.
It was also declared to be the sense
of the club that the $10,600 left In the
appropriation for the purchase of
grounds and erection of a 11 re house at
Mount Tabor be used at once to erect a
building for that purpose. The com
mittee was Instructed to urge that this
be done. '
BIG CONTRACT IS LET BT CITY
Two Reservoirs to Be Constructed
at $444,760 Cost.
Robert Wakefield & Co. were awarded
the contracts by the Water Board yes
terday morning for the construction of
two new city reservoirs on the west side
of Mount Tabor, at a total price of $444,
760. The two new reservoirs will be similar
to the two now on the east side of Mount
Tabor, and will be auxiliary to the lat
ter. They will have a combined capac
ity of 25.000.000 gallons. Robert Wake
field Co. was the lowest bidder. The
other bidders were:
Northwest Bridge Works, $493,677.50;
Pearson Construction Company, $oSS,
311.45: Grant Smith & Co., $606,76; Celilo

The instinct of modesty natural to every woman is often a
great hindrance to the cure of womanly diseases. Women
shrink from the personal questions of the local physician
which seem indelicate. The thought of examination is ab
horrent to them, and so they endure in silence a condition
of disease which surely progresses from bad to worse.
