All the lawyers for the defense here
ntered a violent protest, accusing: the

sponded with contempt:

That new red steel framework that
stands out prominently on the east side
of the river opposite Gltsan street and
which la being- augmented every day
Is taking- form as a railroad bridge,
and that Is what It will be as the
structure is extended westward across
the Willamette.
The work has progressed so far now
that the structure Is beginning to look
like a bridge. Persons standing- on
either the Morrison bridge or the Burn
side bridge now can obtain a definite
Idea of the slzo and elevation of the
new Harriman structure.
The steel work has been completed
from the street level on the. east ap
proach to the edge of the river. Prep.
aratlona are rapidly being made to p
In the first span from the east abu
raent to the east pier. No work has
been done on the west side as tbe ap
proach for the bridge there has not yet
been cleared. As soon as the old round
house site Is leveled the work of build
ing out from the west side will be
started.
Boat to Bear Lift-
Government has been trying to. and
has partially succeded In. convicting
for conspiracy to defraud it of its pub
lic lands.
"The lands covered In this list are with
in the Cascade Forest Reserve, and
were purchased by these operators, and
in a fraudulent manner, for the pur
pose of being used as base or script
for Indemnity selections, and have al
ready been used for that purpose. The
Government, however, after a thorough
Investigation and discovery of the
fradulent character of the applications
by which these school lands were pur
chased from the state. Is taking steps
toward setting aside the patents to
lands given in lieu of these said school
sections.
"If there is fraud sufficient, and
there undoubtedly is, to Justify the
Federal Government In setting aside Its
patents to the lieu lands, there Is surely
fraud sufficient to Justify the state In
bringing suit to set aside the deeds
from the state to Benson and Hyde.
"Should the state recover title to
these lands, they may be used for in
demnity selections, and at the present
price of base would net the state easily
about 1750.000."

ZIONITES flRE OUT
Dowieites Evicted From Shi
loh House After Long Fight.
CONSTABLE TURNS TRICK
Last Handful of 'Original Believers,
Go From Famous Abode of 'Pro
phet Who 'Went Broke' 'Is
raelites' in Last Struggle.
CHICAGO, May 9. (Special) Con
stable Hteka went down to Zion City
today from 'Waukegan and did with a
flash of his star and a twist of his
ingenuity what hundreds of Vollva fol
lowers have failed to do. He drove the
last handful of "original Dowieites"
from Shlloh House, the tradition
haunted one-time abode of the
"Prophet."
As a result of the visit of Constable
Hicks the remnant of John Alexander
Dowle's Church of Peace is without
home or tabernacle and Is composed of
wanderers, for all the Zlon City of to
day cares, on the face of the earth.
For six weeks Shiloh House, garri
soned by Elder John G. Taylor and 30
disciples whose . lives stm pivot about
memories of "Prophet" Dowie, has been
beleagured night and day. Mrs. Emily
Grind, who bought Shiloh House from
the receivers of Dowle's estate and in
sisted on coming . into her own, gen
erated the besieging army. The garri
son guarded the place so vigilantly and
resolutely, however, that every attempt
to obtain entrance had been blocked
until it was suggested that the Con
stable might find a way out or in.
Constable Hicks kept Elder Taylor
and his men busy at the back; door
while as many fearless souls as would
volunteer climbed Into the front win
dows on the second floor from scaling
ladders. The besieged struggled des
perately against the storm of Vollva
followers but were overpowered and
driven out.
Central Oregon Residents Believe
Water Could Be Conducted by
Sluicing From Bend Across
Crook, Wasco and Sherman.
A 110.000,000 irrigation canal hat
will carry water 120 miles across can
yon, plain, over mountain and into val
leys Is one of the projects proposed for
Central' Oregon. No definite plan for
this huge enterprise has yet been de
vised, but in Central Oregon there are
a number of men who believe that it
is possible.
. The plan is that a canal or sluiceway
be built from the Deschutes River at
Bend across Crook. Wasco and into
i Sherman counties. It is pointed out
that this project could be accomplished
for the reason that the altitude at Bend
is 2700 feet and the highest point at
Shanlko is 8300 feet and most of Sher
man County is less than 2000 feet.
Route Could Be Located.
It is asserted that an engineer could
find the route by which such an Irri
gation line could be established and all
Intermediate points served with suffi
cient water to make the project one of
the most noted in the world as well as
the most far-reaching in benefits. It is
estimated that the cost of the enter
prise would be $10,000,000. but that the
distribution of water to such a wide
area of land would more than pay for
the cost of the project.
It is not said who is the real author
of the scheme, but the fact is estab
lished that in Madras, Metollus, Shanl
ko and at all points between Madras
and Shanlko 'the plan is being discussed
and is believed possible.
Tbe fall of the Deschutes River from
Bend to the Columbia River, a distance
of 140 miles, is over S500 feet an av
erage of li feet to the mile. It is also
asserted that there is enough water to
irrigate 600,000 acres of land and that
S00.000 acres are available within the
radius of the proposed canal which
could be run to Sherman County.
Reservoirs Are Planned. '
At Madras it would provide water in
an abundance for the entire valley,
which would be 300 feet below the run
ning line of the water, but reservoirs
could be established in the region
which would conserve a sufficient
amount to serve all purposes. The
project's scope includes a large num
ber of reservoirs which would permit
the water being stored for the lower
altitudes, so that the Summer run
might be carried on to the farthest
points and thus plenty of water be ,
served to those In need of It. ana who
could not be served unless the upper
end' patrons had reservoirs to store the
water during the Winter or Summer
use.
The proposition as outlined has been
discussed at several of the recent com
mercial club meetings in the Interior
towns and in a letter received from
James J. Sayer, field representative of
the Oregon Development League, he
says that the suggestion for the con-

ST. JOHNS, Or., May 9. (Special.)
A remonstrance against the hard sur
facing of Jersey street, St. Johns, with
westrumite was presented to the St.
Johns Council last night, and rejected
by unanimous vote because it carried
names of less than the required 6 2-8
per cent of the property owners on the
street. On the face of the remon
strance it bad 48 per cent, but on be
ing compared with the city maps and
the Assessor's roll it was found that
only 28.87 per cent were regular, that
many names were signed entirely with
out authority and that 215 front feet
were entirely outside the district to be
paved.
After the remonstrance was turned
down the time and manner ordinance
calling for the improvement of the
street was passed and work will be
started Just as soon as the legal for
malities can be carried out. William
Lind, tbe paving company's representa
tive, says that he is ready to file and
will file any bond the city may ask
to guarantee a good street.
