CHURCH LEADERS SPEAK RANCH IN TWO COUNTIES 6000 VISITORS AT CHAUTAUQUAMEET WOMAN HOLDS FORT T SOUND Mr. Carter Iccllne to Surrender Deed and by Force and Strat egy Balks Kfforte of Officers of Law, PHERrPAN. Or.. July . (Special.) Woman' ingenuity, coupled m-tth Jhe persuasive arency of a loaded musket in the hands of Mrs. il. J. Carter, wife of a prosperous rancher llTlngr three miles sooth of here, has created a bar . rler on the Carter farm through which G. V. Henderson, the Sheriff of Yamhill County, and A. M. Fannin, the Mayor of Sheridan, have been unable to pene trate. As a result. Mrs. Carter now stands master of a situation that prom ises to enmesh attorneys, real estate aa-ents. bankers, court officials and county records In a labyrtnthlan legal tancle. Mrs. Carter drove the Mayor of Sher idan from hjrr premises one day last week at the point of a shotgun, and a few days later, by a shrewd watchful ness, was able to blanket the efforts of the Tamhlll County sheriff to serve a warrant for her arrest. The house of Carter stands within a few feet of the dlvtdlns; line between Polk and Tam hlll Counties, and when Sheriff Hen derson approached the hack door, which opens to the vista of Yamhill County, he was met by the decorous parley of Mrs. Carter, who forebore to leave the security of that part of her tiome that lies within the County of Pol k. Dissatisfied with the preliminary n BTotlatlons which Mrs. Carter made with the Mayor and others for the sale of her land early last week, she came to a bank In Sheridan and eecureo tne deed to the ranch, which was held in escrow by the bank. This Is the prle now coveted by the Mayor. A legal suit has been instituted by the pros pective buyers, alleglnar a breach of contract on the part of Mrs. Carter, but thus far she had declined to accept monetary offers to bind the transac tion, and declares she will not until she Is satisfied that there Is no trick ery connected with the transfer. It Is the object of the plaintiffs to brine suit In Yamhill County, where legal expenses will be minimized, dtie to the proximity of the county seat. If action is becun In Polk County. It will swing the stage of controversy to Dal las, the county seat of Tolk County, which Is more nearly inaccessible from this city. The convenient toposrraphy of the Carter farm. In that the boundary line between the two counties offers Imme diate exit from the province of the law on either side. Is regarded as a stum bling block that will handicap seriously the prosecution of the suit by the plalotiKs. MILITIA SCHOOL TO OPEN National Guard Officers Will tn Into Camp at Spokane.

MURDER CONVICT FREED r.VKDOX fOMKS AFTER MAN HAS SERVED 10 YEARS, Governor Hawley, Who Grants Par don. Prosecutor at Time ex-Prls-oner Va Convicted of Crime. BOISE. Idaho. July . For the first time In the history of Idaho a prisoner convicted of murder In the first degree and later saved from the gallows by a commutation of life Imprisonment, has been alven a full and unconditional pardon by the State Board of rardons. i;eorge Levy this weeg warned irom the penitentiary a free man. after 10 years of confinement. Levy waa convicted or tne murder ot a man ot his own name. Lavia ievy. at the time reputed to be one of the richest men In Idaho. Public sentiment ha always been divided as to the Justice of the sentence of Levy. When his case came to trial James IL Hawley waa Prosecuting At torney and following one of the most sensational and hardest fought crlm- lnal trials this city has ever seen, se cured Levy's conviction. Now as Gov ernor of the state and chairman ot the Board of Pardons Governor Hawley waa one of the most pronounced In his stand to free the man whose convic tion he had secured. Although the crime was committed In October of 1901. I,evy was not ar rested and tried until several months later. His alleged victim was a bache lor, residing at S11S Main street, and his body was not discovered until two days following the crime. At the time of his death Levy was TO years old. George Levy was known as a respect able man and his arrest came as a surprise. The state wove a chain of circumstantial evidence about htm In such a way as to make his guilt seem certain to a Jury and he was found guilty of the crime. Influence was brought to bear upon the Pardon Board to commute the sentence. Believing that there might be a possibility that he waa not guilty and It so he had paid for the crime, the Board this week gave the prisoner an uncondi tional pardon. Rudolph Wetter, sentenced to life from Idaho County for murder, had his sentence commuted to 40 years. He was a blacksmith of Grangevllle and up to the time of the crime was held In high respect. The fact that his wife waa left to care for his fam ily had Its Influence with the Board. Frank Papa, convicted of murder In the second degree tn Kootenai County, was granted a pardon by the Board. The application of Thomas Sully for pardon for the crime of larceny, com mitted In Blaine County in 1910, was denied, as was the application ot James W. Thompson, accused and con vlcted of manslaughter, committed In Bannock County. Maralifleld Makes Open Offer. MARSHFIELD. Or., July t. (Spe cial.

Oraln producers of the KllcKltat I Valley are up In arms over the delay of the North Bank railway officials In re. spondlng to the demand of the Golden dale Fruit and Produce Association for a reduction In freight rates. That the railroad officials are merely playing for time and do not intend to change the rates now In effect is tne belief f members of the association. Responding to the request that a re duction be made In grain rates from this section In time to give growers here op portunity to move this year's crop under a lowered tariff, W. E. Coman, general freight and passenger agent for the North Bank road, failed to satisfy mem bers of the association that the road had any intention of making the desired, reduction. Mr. Coman'! letter was read at a meeting of the board of trustees of the Fruit and Produce Association yesterday. Feeling against the apparent stand that tho company has taken In regard to the sought-for reduction In grain rates Is strong here, and it was determined to commence an active fight to bring about a change. Agitation will be begw to secure reduction not only on grain rates but on carload lots of all com modities shipped from this valley. H. J. Clark, manager of the associa tlon. has been instructed to give his en tire attention to the matter so long as it may be deemed necessary. Movement to enlist the co-operation of the Farm ers' Union and every grange In the val lev has been started. Data are now being collected regarding the amount of the grain crop and the rates in force, and these facts, together with the causes for complaint, will be presented to the Interstate Commerce Commission. The association is also cenferring with the Open River Transportation Company in regard to river rates. If satisfactory rates can be secured ana arrangements nude so that the grain crop can db moved by water with sufficient conven ience. It Is said to be probable that this will be done.
