The evening session was devoted to an address on "The Mail Order Evil," by Tom Richardson, of Portland, and an" ad dress on "The Relation of the Merchant to PubHo Health and Public Morals," by a F. Mulkey, District Attorney of Jack son Caunty. Mr. Richardson declared that mall order houses had a .baneful effect upon the business of country mer chants and entailed extravagance upon the consumer. He spoke in opposition to the parcels post and suggested that the merchants appoint committees from their various sections to call upon their newspapers and urge them to look upon the parcels post from the viewpoint of merchants and business men and ask them to oppose the measure. He urged also that the merchants themselves de sist in patronizing mail order houses when they happened to want some ar ticle outside- their regular line. New Era Predicted.

GREAT DAM PROJECTED IRRIGATION OF 600,000 .ACRES WILL BE MADE POSSIBLE. Snake River Will Be Raised 3 4 Feet, Flooding Large Area Witli Reservoir Site. iBOISB, " Idaho, Jan. 26. (Special.) Through - the erection- across the Snake River, near American Falls, of one of the. largest concrete dams ever con structed by which water will be backed up the river, forming a reservoir several miles long. Eastern capitalists plan the opening of one of the biggest irrigation projects In the history of the reclama tion of the Inland desert, which will be known as the Bruneau. The tract will contain approximately 600,000 acres. It will require the attention of expert engi neers, several of whom have been work ing on the plans and announce -that by raising . the water in the river 34 feet, it will be possible to deliver, it on every acre of the tract. . It was stated by Irrigation men' in this city today, that the engineers have ap proved the construction of the dam. and that the day it was passed upon $5,500,000 In cash was paid over in Chicago. The remainder of several million dollars re quired to . complete the project will be forthcoming immediately. It has been- known for a long time that American Falls is considered one pf the greatest power sites . In the West owing to the steep decline of the river at this point. The available power has never been completely controlled, .but it Is the plan of the . promoters not only to control it but to make the power of great commercial value. The backing of the water up the river will extend the reservoir from American Falls to Blackfoot on the Snake and al most to Pocatello on the Portneuf. The land to be irrigated lies in Southern Idaho, reaching from Buhl in Twin Falls County west to Bruneau. At present It is a great range for cattle and Vsheepmen. Official surveys of . the .tract, has been made under the Surveyor General's De partment and the plats are now In Wash ington awaiting approval As soon as they are passed upon active work will start on the largest irrigation project ever promoted by Independent .capital In this state. SEARS TELLS TROUBLES Man Who Holds Up Crater Lake Road Appropriation Files Papers. SALEM. Or.. Jan. 26. (Special.) J. K. Sears, the Polk .

Mrs. Effie B. Robinson, of Firland Station, Multnomah, Falls to. Prove Claim of Relationship to Man Who Is Unidentified.' OREGON CITY. Jan. 26. (Special.) Declaring that the claim of ration ship made by Mrs."- Effle B." Robinson of- Firland Station, Multnomah Coun ty, to the man whose body was found near Oswego, Sept. .13, 1908, Is false and fraudulent. County Judge Grant B.-Dimick today made-an order-remov ing Mrs. Robinson from the administra tion of the estate, which consists of $663.80, found upon the clothing of the man, whose identity may remain a secret forever. The decision of Judge Dlmlck is two- edged, for while he will not permit Mrs. Robinson to act as administratrix of the estate of the man who she swore was her father, F. A. William son, he also says In his decislon- that the body was not that of Christian Haist, as alleged by Bernhardt Haist, who contested, the. claims of Mrs. Rob inson. " . Not in years has a Probate Court case -excited so- much interest or pre cipitated such a bitter ngnt as this one, and the whole struggle has been rendered profitless through . the ' de cision of Judge "Dlmlck. Unless the true heirs of the dead man can estab lish his Identity, the money found upon his body will escheat to the state. Woman's - Story Believed. - The body was burled in Mountain "View cemetery three days, after Its discovery. Only a few days later, Mrs. Robinson came to Oregon City and positively identified a tobacco pipe that was found on the body. She even called the attention of Coroner Holman to an almost invisible crack that was in the pipe. bhe also produced a silver watch that she claimed to have found near the place where the body was discov ered. In the back of the watch was a photograph of Mrs. Robinson and a note said to have been signed by her father and placed inside of the case of the watch.- Mrs. Robinson told a good story and convinced the authorities that her claim was a Just one. Attorney Hesse, of Portland, peered through, the glasses of speculation and requested the body be exhumed in the interest of his client, Bernhardt Haist, who was flrmi in the belief that the dead man was his brother. Christian Haist. Coroner Holman complied with the re- 3uest of Hesse, but at the same time he otifled Mrs. Robinson and she was pres ent at the disinterment. She declared the body to be that of her father, F. A. Will iamson, but a friend of Bernhardt Haist Insisted that the body was that of the brother to the man be represented: Mrs.. Robinson became active first, how ever, and filed a petition for appointment as administratrix of the estate. - -This waa granted, but Bernhardt Haist pre sented a petition alleging fraud on the part of Mrs. Robinson and declaring the body to bo that of Christian Haist. ' Deposition Tells Stories. Hesse and his partner, Beckett, pro duced the deposition of B. Stacey Core, of Richard Center, Wis., in which it is stated that Stacey is the step-father of Mrs. Robinson, having been the first bus-' band of her mother; that she was 6 years of age when her mother was married to him and that he never heard of F. A. Wllliameon. The deposition of Cynthia E. Lowery was also presented.. She is a sister of Mrs. Robinson's mother and states Mrs. Robinson is an illegitimate child and that her father was one Timothy Aebury Moore;, that Mrs. Robinson called herself Williams, the deponent swearing that criminal charges1 were filed against Jesse Williams, wherein he was accused of being the father of Mrs.. Robinson. Mrs. Lowery also said her sister, Mar garet Ann Wallace, told her Mrs. Rob inson's step-father induced Margaret Ann Wallace to .swear that Jesse Williams was the father of Jier child. The depo sition of Jesse Williams himself is also filed, but he adds little to the story. There ' was also evidence before the court 'showing that on May 18. 1895, Mrs. Robinson married her present husband, Erloy P. Robinson, and that she gave her name ' as Effle Williams and her father's name as J. E. Williams and her mother's maiden name as Margaret Wal lace, Her original marriage certificate was presented and plainly shows that tha letters "on" were added to her name to help along the fraud.

Cooper relative to the human stomach has attracted such widespread attention that the public in cities visited by the young- man has' been Joined by many physicians in a discussion of his beliefs and medicines. Mr. Cooper says that human health is dependent almost entirely upon the stomach. He says that no disease can be conquered without first alleviating all stomach disorders. He further says that most men and women of this gen eration are half-sick, owing to degen erate stomachs. And lastly, he claims that his New Discovery medicine will rejuvenate the human stomach in 90, days. Cooper has been traveling from one city to another, conducting in each what he calls a campaign of education. For the past year he has met the public in the larger cities of the country, and his success has been phenomenal. Thousands of people have flocked to his headquarters wherever he has gone, and the sale of his medicine has been beyond anything- of the kind ever be fore witnessed. Possibly the most interesting feature of the attention this young man has attracted is what his army of followers, whom he has converted to his beliefs through his medicines, have to say on the subject. The following statements are from two well-known residents of Chicago and Boston, respectively, and the enthusiasm ofl these is. characteris tic of Cooper's admirers generally. Mrs. H. B. Mack, of 3201 State street, Chicago, says: "I have been suffering for 12 years from a combination of stomach troubles, catarrh and constipa tion. I had a gnawing pain In the pit of 'ray stomach, a sort of dull pain that I could not quite understand.

It was through onu of my friends that I heard of Cooper'a preparation, and I immediately decided. to try some of it. It is two weeks since) I took my first dose of It, and I feel like a new woman. Tha headacha seems to have .disappeared, and tha' pain in my stomach along with It. Tha medicine is worth Its weight in gqld, and I want to thank Mr. Cooper for" what he has done for me." Mr. Edwin F. Morse, of 20 Oakley; street, Dorahester, a suburb of Boston, says: "For three years I had not h. well day. My stomach was in frightful shape; the mere thought of food wouM nauseate me, and I really had a horror of anything to eat.
