20 THE 3IOKXIXG OKEG051.0, THTJRSDAT, APRIX 14, 1910. LAND-FRAUD SUIT TO COVER STATE Government's Action Monday May Lead to Thorough Probing All Land. DUMMY ENTRYMEN USED IMane Under Way to Inquire Into Means by Which, Title to Every Acrc of Timber Land Has Ever Been Obtained in Oregon. Attempting to amend his bill of com plaint against C. A. Smith, the Minne sota millionaire. United States District Attorney McCourt yesterday asked the Federal Court to sustain the right of the Government to bring suit for the recovery of the value of any land which may have been obtained through fraud, the statute of limitations preventing either criminal prosecution or action to set aside patents. Should the court sustain the point niada by the Government prosecutor, it is believed that the Department of Jus tice will have opened the way to in quire i nto the means by which every n-cre of timber land has ever been ob tained in Oregon, and wherever it can be shown that fraudulent connivance entered into obtaining patent to lands, k suit may be entered for the actual value of the land. The question has never before been submitted to any court of the country. It will be argued on Monday. ex-Governor John Ijind, of Minnesota, and At torney J. K. Veland, of Minneapolis, being now In P6rtland to appear on behalf of the defendant. Corruption Is Widespread. "All the land frauds ever perpetrat ed in Oregon were not confined to l-'uter, Horace McKinley and a few of the men who were caught in the last few yeara." said District Attorney Mc Court yesterday. "Corrupt men have obtained valuable lands for years past through the use of dummy entrymen, forging names to applications filed In the land offices of the state and after ward transferring them by deeds which must have been secured in the same way. "In many cases the Government has ascertained that men were hired to make the filings and to allow the use of their names; in other cases which have been Investigated the men and women actually went upon the land and complied with the law, after mak ing a contract with a corporation by which they were to receive a certain amount of money, as was done in the V.op Angeles conspiracy case. "In that instance men were sent to pro ok County to secure land for the Pacific Furniture Company for an av prtlge price of about $800. As soon as Mtle was granted deeds were passed. "Heretofore the Government has been helpless to recover against such men and corporations unless suit to cancel the patent was begun within six years following its issue, or a criminal in dictment was returned within three years after the act was committed." Mill ions Ma y Be Recovered. It is believed to be the intention of the Government to enter upon an in restigation of the thousands of timber i-laims which have been acquired from time to time by the larger corporations operating in the timber belt at $2.50 rer acre. Many of the claims were ex remely valuable, possessing a market price of from $5000 to $20,000, and fchould the Government be able to make a showing of fratid in connection with the original entries it would mean the recovery to the National Treasury of many millions of dollars. Jn the recent investigation of the Oregon Lumber Company, resulting in the indictment of David Kccles, the Salt Lake millionaire; Grant Geddes, of linker City, and a number of employes of the company upon charges of having obtained a number of timber claims through the use of dummies who were supplied with necessary funds by the management of the lumber company, proof of 45 such transgressions of the law Is said to have been obtained through confessions from those who lent their assistance to the scheme, but the Government found itself unable to proceed because of the intervention of the statute of limitations. The indict ment was returned upon three overt acts found to be alive. It Is asserted that the investigation of Oregon land frauds which began with the advent of Francis J. Heney five years ago, has placed the Interior Department in possession of informa tion which may effect a number of the large companies heretofore escaping criticism. The Attorney-General has had the matter under consideration for some time upon suggestion of the District Attorney for Oregon. r.AXD-KTCAlD CASE DKOPPED Turebaser from Hyde and Benson Acted in Good Faith. By direction of the Attorney-General of the Vnited states. District Attorney Mc Court yesterday dismissed one of the civil caes pending against the California land frauders. F. A. Hyde and John W. Benson, for the recovery of title to 120 Acres of Clatsop County land alleged to Jiave been fraudulently obtained. The land is now owned by C. E. Holter and an invest Igatjon of the case satis fied the Government that Holter had Hcquirod it in good faith. Holter pur chased script from Hyde and Benson and placed it on the property. The script is aid to have been obtained by Hyde and Benson throuRh the exchange of a claim illegally acquired in their interest by C. V. Cook. -NATt'RE OF JUMPER ISSUE .Man Indicted for Cutting Wood Con tends It Is Not Tiirtber. Indicted by the Federal grand jury upon a charge of having illegally cut 3 200 cords of juniper wood from the slopes of Jackass Mountain, in Harney ('ounty, "William Han ley yesterday ap peared in the Cnited States Court in company with his attorney. Colonel C. hZ. S. Wood, and served notice of his intention to tight the case upon the ground that Juniper trees are not tim ber within the meaning of the law, and for that reason have no value. The millionaire sheep-owner from Bums believes that juniper Is an over grown species of sagebrush and an nounces that the present case Is the first instance of record in the Cnited States where a cltlxen has been arrested for cutting It. Mr. Hanley. as manager of the "Diamond-"!" ranch, contracted with several neighbors to furnish wood for use in a dredge being operated for the drain age of swamp lands and bogs located in part on the patented land owned by the ranch company and partially on the Government domain, and fully 25 miles from Burns. The plan contem plated the reclamation and settlement of the lands, the soil being extremely rich. Several miles of the ditch had been constructed and about 500 cords of the wood consumed before operations were stopped through action of a spe cial agent of the Uind Office in seizing the remaining 700 cords. Since taking possession of the big woodpile the Government on two oc casions had advertised the material for sale, but no bids were submitted. The Government demands $4.50 a cord for all the juniper removed by the defend ant. Mr. Hanley last year paid the largest fine ever imposed In Oregon tor unlaw fully fencing the Government domain. DR. ROLAND DWIGHT GRANT A Word About an Old Resident of Portland, Whom Many Remember. Dr. Roland D. Grant, well-known here in the pulpit of the First Baptist Church some 16 years ago or more man of marked indiivduallty of character and of unusual fluency and power as a speaker, writes from "Waterloo, N. H., that he expects to be In Portland in a few weeks -for a visit. First he will visit his daughter, Mrs. Wrllliam Dixon Hopcraft, 1431 Thurlow street, "Vancou ver, B. C.. where he may be addressed now by Portland friends. The following by Dr. Grant appears in the Boston Watchman. It is worth reading; Mystery Is the sweetest power In life. "When things are uncovered they are often unseen. Realism ma' be less real than the Meal; the hunt mora pleasure than the quarry. Thing to be revealed should be half-concealed. The subtle power of mys tery holds the heart, and without it there can be no religion. It is nnt only the "horn of light from God's hand" in Habbakuk, but more potent im the "hiding1 of his power." Fymbolic language only can long live. Even scandal Is only telling part, and the nude In art harm little while the suggestive in art may ruin. Desire is oft more desirable than attain ment; hence the millionaire can give away hi millions and pinch the poor for a penny's margin. Thin is why the total revelation, shocks, while a suggestion hoi da u firm to our doing or our undoing. This is why the prodigal son found the "famine' when he had "all that was coming to him;" for when he had it all, "he had rt all." and there was nothing more to have; whereas, as he him self said, "his portion was coming to him; hut he could not wait for It to "come" and go lost It by getting It all. The mad world rushes ever on from the seen to the unseen; to the novelty which when possessed thereby ceases to be pos sessed, and at the end of "all there is," lies the desert. Alexander the Or eat could only weep for other worlds to conquer when all worlds had surrendered to him. The rich may have more gratification in their ac cumulation but no more satisfaction than the widow with her mite, for gratification is not satisfaction. If a man gratifies an ap petite then it will never satisfy him, but if lie refuses to gratify the appetite then the appetite itself will satisfy him. An appe tite without a dinner is more to be desired than a dinner without an appetite. Things found are thereby lost." Peary did us an Inestimable damage if he discovered the Pole, because as soon as he found It we lost it. and had none. But Cook served us better In that he did not discover the Pole, but lost himself, and so Increased the mystery. PERS0NALMENTI01!. F. Mortensen, of Cascade Locks, is at the Lenox. J. F.

In passing down the river the Manzan ita collided with the dredge and tug. which were proceeding without proper lights. The Manzanita sank two miles below Waterford Light. Captain Patrick Byrne was her commander. After being raised the Manzanita was purchased at public auction by the Columbia Contract Company and was rechristened the Daniel Kern, but the changing of names failed to remove the hoodoo. The .night of August 18, 1909. the Daniel Kern again went to the bottom of the river in collision with the George W. Elder within one and a half miles of the. scene of the first accident. The vessel Is now employed on the jetty being con structed at Fort Stevens. AVAXTS TO DIVIDE DAMAGES Defendant in Suit Petitions Court to Apportion Judgment. Asking that the owners of the steamer Oregona be assessed with a portion of the 812.000 judgment recently awarded Virgil K. Poland against the steamer Ruth, the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company yesterday appeared in the United States Court with- a petition which recounts the story of the accident and states that the Oregona displayed just as much carelessness In the matter as did the Ruth. The Oregona is the property of the Oregon City Transfer Company. Poland lost both legs at Clackamas Rapids on October 15, 1907. by becoming entangled in a cable which had been picked up by the wheel of the Ruth. Both boats were bound for Salem and in attempting to pass the rapids put out cables to attach to a "dead man" on the bank. The Oregona was in the lead and finding her cables short was compelled to drop down stream. When alongside the Ruth, the latter attempted to steam past the Oregona and picked up the cable Poland was coiling. Astoria Marine Xotes. ' ASTORIA. Or., April 13. (Special.)

Mr. Taylor HW1E CUlEl I didnt find out I had contracted Contagious Blood Poison until it had made considerable headway. I had heard a great deal of the value of S. S. S. as a blood medicine, in fact had a friend who had cured himself of the same disease through its use, so as soon as I discovered the nature of my trouble I began taking it. I got along splendidly from the very first and my recovery was steady. When I first began the use of S. S. S. my face was so full of sores and eruptions that I could not shave. Other parts of my body were similarly affected, but there is now not a blotch, pimple or any other sign of the disease. I was cured by S. S. S. and I know I am cured to stay cured as this was several years. ago. There is nothing that equals S. S. S. for Contagious Blood Poison and I always recommend it in such cases. WALTER WEBER. ISO. 4304 fourth fct., Evansville, Ind. The acknowledged virtue of S. S. S. as a blood remedy induced i Mr. Weber to commence its use when he found he had contracted Contagious Blood Poison. 1 he good results he obtained is just another demonstration of its value as a cure for this disease. Contagious Blood Poison is the most powerful and destructive of all blood disorders. Its virus permeates the entire circulation and this explains why any one afflicted with this malady usually finds its symp toms manifested in every portion of the body. From head to foot the insidious poison breaks forth. The hair and eyebrows come out, the mouth and throat ulcerate, skin eruptions and sores and ulcers break out on the body, the bones ache, glands in the groin swell, and frequently the nails on hands and feet are affected. The only possible way to cure Contagious Blood Poison is to remove the cause by purifying tle blood. This is just what S. S. S. does; and it is the only medicine that absolutely and thoroughly cleanses the circulation of every particle of the germs and virus of the disease. Mercury, Potash, etc., are often used by despairing sufferers in the hope that such strong treatment will kill the poison. But this cannot be done; the disease may be checked temporarily and the symptoms improved, but the old poison is slumbering in the blood, and when the treatment is left off the disease always returns. The ability of S. S. S. to cure Contagious Blood Poison comes from its blood purifying properties. It goes into the circulation and removes every trace of the poison, makes the blood pure and healthy, and leaves no dregs of the virus to break out later on. S. S. S. is made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, each of which has a direct and Q. r ri fi r e-rrV in TMii-iFtrlnrr o PURELY VEGETABLE when S. S. S. has rid the circulation of the Contagious Blood Poison the entire system is left in fine physical condition. We want to help every Contagious Blood Poison sufferer to get well, and for this purpose we have prepared a special book for Home Treatment We will mail this book with any special medical advice free.
