11 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, AUGUST 24, 1914. LOGAN SAYS PUBLIC LOVES BUNCO GAME "People Like to Be Fooled," Is Axiom of Soldier of For tune, Now Jailed. WORK TO BE RESUMED 'Locator- Tells Hot He Won Wealth by Deals and Schemes and Blames The Oregonian for Fail ure of Plans in Oregon. From selling brass Jewelry to Afri can chieftains in return for ivory when In his teens, to assisting in mulcting the American' public $1,500,000 through a single shady land scheme, is the career of J. W. Logan, who last week left the Multnomah County Jail to serve a 20 months' sentence on Mc Neil Island for the fraudulent use of ss, In nnnnrtlon With his UCtlV- lties as -locator" on timber claims of the Oregon & Calitornia iana s In Oregon. . , . Though but 31 years of age, Logan has amassed a private fortune of about $115,000 through his activities for five years past he admits at least that much. . . The public is placed on earth for the sole purpose of subscribing to get-rlch-..ii aams nf promoters. Is the firm conviction of Logan, who. seen st the Jail, told easily, and, with fre quent smiles, of his profitable game of matching wits with the law. Is he sorry that he swindled thou sands of the poor of their slowly saved earnings? Logan to Return to Game. rvoi ai an. ma ------ tion he views solely as that which 13- to be expected in the event oi and will follow nls line oi work the moment he is released from prison, he says. "Men are not asked their records nowadays." he said, if they can deliver the goods. A capable .on . aiwnvs In demand and it mat ters little of what crimes he may have been convicted.' Logan takes pride in styling himself "J. Rufus Wallingford" and the title of that clever rogue of fiction fits, with the only exception that the con scientious scruples of the rascal of book fame would allow him only to rob the well-to-do. Though many men were interested in the scheme, and W..F. Minard was con flicted jointly with Logan of complicity in the fraud, Logan proudly claims that the profitable dealings were germinat ed In the brain of J. W. Logan and that he was the sole "man higher up" In all transactions. Branches of the land business con trolled by Logan and confederates were established in Cincinnati, Toledo. Grand Kapids, Indianapolis, Chicago. St. Louis, Davenport. Ia-. Des Moines, Omaha, Kansas Cltv. Mo-. Denver. Enid. Okla.. Bait Lake City. Spokane, Seattle. Ta roma. San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Jt will be noticed that he had no of fices within Oregon, where the scheme was fertillxed. "The Oregonian was implacably an tagonistic to my operations." Is the reason ht give, "so I kept out of Ore gon territory. The paper had a tend ency to publish adverse reports regard ing the business and led an agresslve campaign against us since 1908. I triee to keep as far as possible outside the field of its circulation, but even so the paper sent marked copies to many papers in cities where I was operat ing. "Reporters would visit me, but after I had pointed out that the proposition was legal enough and that I intended to invest several hundred dollars in ad vertising, they would leave me alone." Fortune's Soldier Goes to Africa. He was thrown upon his own re sources at the age of IS. At this time there were tales of much money to be made In Africa and he shipped to the Dark Continent with a number of reck less young fellows, working his way on a tramp steamer. Arriving, he pur chased large quantities of beads and brass trinkets, all excellent for barter with the savage. His experiences with the natives are testified to by multil ated hands, the third finger of both hands being severed at the joint. This was a punishment meted out by an African chief who thought he had been swindled, says Logan. The Boer war broke out shortly and, at the age of 20, Logan enlisted with several other Americans with the Boer forces. For a while the excitement proved most diverting, but soon the Boers began to lose ground. Seeing allteh.ince of op-portunity for aggran Hizement in pursuit of the cause vanish ing. Logan says he and kindred spirits .imonz the American soioiers ot ior tune decided to desert and light their way to the coast, where they could get passage to America.

These are beautiful days, but rain Is badly needed. Owing to the protracted dry pell, the hay fever season ! lasting much longer than usual. The milkweed pods are sift ing out their snow. There are splashes of crimson on the dog woods. There Is dust and rust on Summer's raiment. The nedgllngs have all learned to fly, and meet with their elders In twittering flocks, to talk about the routing of a Journey thev all intend soon to make. The dust is deep on country roads. The stars seem higher and smaller. Surely, there are signs in plentv of a new seasonal dis pensation. Plans are being made to handle the unemployed prob lem next Winter. It seems a shame that we should thus ac cept poverty as a matter of course, when there Is enough for Looking up Washington street any of these evenings, when the sun Is setting, and behold such a wondrous curtain hung above the hills that your soul will ache to see such beauty die. But never mind about that, tor . . ...,,.,1 ...nsntlnc hut Deamy B never copying herself, forever ana ever.

Since the war news over whelmed all else, anything you want to know about Joe Knowles or the Mexican problem will be found on the third page of the Beaverton Owl, which Is always blank. Correction. In Sec. 2 of this Issue of The Crawfish in the war bulletin from Cold Hill, the fiendish compositor made us refer to "pickled t'hlans" when we meant to say "picked Uhlans.' Section 2 has already gone to press when we noticed this re gretable error, and our gentle manly foreman refused to stop the press to make the change. The Crawfish wishes to be exact In Its presentation of the news of the great conflict. J Locals and Personals t r- i tcp n-t(i and some ! i V,iv am COinF tO stay up to see the circus train come in.

DIVER TESTS BOAT HULL WALTER STERLING SAYS COLUSA IS NOT HURT BV ACCIDENT. Crowds st Docks Watch Expert Make Careful Examination Before the Vessel Goes on Voyage. After spending several hours under the surface of the water in exarflining the hull of the steamer Colusa, which had run aground near Astoria several days ago, Walter Sterling, a diver, re ported the boat in good condition. The examination was made yesterday afternoon while the vessel was at the Portland Mill, where she has been load ing for South Amrlca. When the steamer went aground It was feared that her hull was so badly injured that she would need extensive repairs. She was brought into the mill dock Saturday. Scores of persons were at the boat to watch the diver work. "The hull is scratched up a bit and the paint is rubbed off altogether in places but otherwise the boat Is unin jured." said the diver when he arose from the water for the last time. "There is no doubt in my mind but that she Is just as good as she was before the acci dent.' QUIXATjIT SAILS FOR ALASKA Xew Crew Taken on Here After Dis pute Over Working Honrs.

Manager Plerong. of the Em press, had an Indian musician on the bill last week, and now he knows more about the artis tic temp, than he ever did be fore. Speaking of titles, some men have to spend years In college to get them, some earn them on the field of battle, others sail the seven seas for years, and sUll others have them wished on by their friends.

Will French was in from On tario, which wants to get the Malheur County seat away from Vale, last week.

Emmet Callahan- lived In Ba ker City In the days when Pen dleton was rather a wild town. One day. near the Baker County Courthouse, he was held up by a highwayman, who told him to put up his hands.

Emmet admits that It was scarcely fair to use his knowledge of la aavate, the French art of self-defense, on an unsophisticated highwayman. Walter DeLuxe Giffard, whose home address is Wootton. Lin colnshire. Eng., believes that the Kaiser has beer, very rash thus far.

After her arrival here the owners ex perienced considerable trouble with the crew, and as the result all but two were' discharged and their places filled with local men. The trouble arose over the dispute of the hours which they should work. They contended that the sailor's working-day was between 7 A. M. and 5 P. M., and that labor at any other hours should be paid as overtime. The own ers of the boat took a different stand, however. They declared that the men should work nine hours a day, regard less of when the time was put in. When no settlement could be made the men were released and a new crew taken on so that the work of discharg ing could be done. The controversy will be threshed out in San Francisco.
