others applied to the land office, either
in person or by telephone. Before 8

Union avenue and Russell street.
Most of the women busied themselves
with needle work. Some of them
varied their Industry by reading. The
men occasionally played cards.
Crowds of men were gathered In the
land office all day to gain further par
ticulars regarding the land and the
opening. The Government presumes
that every applicant is familiar with
the land upon which he or she files.
The blanks to be filled when the for
mal applications are made require a
description of the property, by town
ship numbers and quarter section num
bers. ;
Indian I. aw Applies.
This land distribution will be made
under the provisions of the Indian land
law. and not the homestead law. The
rules vary in some important partic
ulars. The usual preference for per
sons having served in the Army or
Navy do not apply in these cases.
N. Campbell, register of the local
land office, in charge of the distribu
tion, explained yesterday that .no mail
applications received prior to 9 A. M.
Saturday, April 1, can be considered.
Personal applicants will be cared for
first, after that hour, and if any land
remains unapportioned after the per
sonal applicants are accommodated,
mail applications may have a chance.
But it is apparent that all the land
will be disposed of through those
seeking it in person.
The entire allotment consists of only
18,000 acres. It is not contiguous, but
is scattered in a score or more of dif
ferent parcels. All the land filed
upon by any one applicant must be
contiguous, however. A fee of $16 is
required on each 160-acre filing, and
proportionate fees for lesser areas.
Persons filing on the land must live
on it three years. They can, however,
secure title at the end of 14 months'
residence by paying a commutation fee
of $1.50 an acre. .

Remedy for Overworked,
Run-down Men.
The following letter from Manager
Hodes recounts the experience and con
dition of many Portland men. Read
this letter and our offer which fol
lows:
Brooklyn, N. Y. "I am a general office
manager, and became so nervous and
run-down in health that I lost my
appetite, and finally my health broke
down completely, largely because of
overwork. I tried Beef. Iron and Win
and other remedies without help. 1
saw Vinol advertised, and soon after
taking it noticed an improvement. I
now have a hearty appetite, sleep bet
ter, feel better and have gained con
siderable in weight." Samuel Hodes
501 Stone Ave.,
The reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because it contains the
three oldest and most famous tonics
viz. the medicinal elements of fresh
cod livers without oil,-- peptonate of
iron and beef peptone.
We ask every run-down overworked
man in Portland to try a bottle of
Vinol with the understanding that their
money will -be returned if it fails to
help them as it did Mr. Hodes.

The photo-drama is one of the best
efforts of the Morosco company, and a
type of pure drama, convincing, force
ful and sympathetitc, which cannot but
please. Miss Colliers interpretation
of the role of Marcia Gray arouses
sympathy for her plight and admiration
for her steadfastness.
-The story deals with the love of a
true friend, who, in this case, is Or
lando Castle, a role ably portrayed by
Forrest Stanley. Turning from the true
friend and sweetheart, the girl mar
ries Harry Gray. Their happiness lasts
but too briefly, for the husband is ex

funds from his bank. Confronted with
the crisis, the man advises his wife to
seek financial aid from Castle, and
when the latter responds the husband
becomes jealous anr accuses the wife
of infidelity. The woman is brought to
a realization of her love for the true

to accompany him. Gray is met at the
dock by a man he has ruined, they

Fannie Ward, ever .becoming a more
popular player in the speechless drama,
achieves the triumph of her screen ca
reer in "The Cheat." a powerful story
of high society and its weaknesses,
which is being exhibited at the Pick

"The Cheat" is one of the strongest
stories of the screen. In fact,- so pow
erful has been its appeal that it is to
be transposed to the speaking stage,
upsetting precedent, which requires the
picturization of many stage produc
tions, with no reciprocation. A photo
drama with a compelling theme, that
of a woman who .seaured money from
an alien at a price she Tefused to pay,
and a noteworthy cast, including the
eminent Japanese artist, Sessue Haya
kawa, is brought to a climax with a
court scene and riot which is con
vincingly realistic
The story pictures a young society
couple, engulfed in lavish living. The
wife, entrusted, with Red Cross funds,
uses them for stock gambling and her
husband is temporarily unable to help
her. She turns to the Japanese, Tori,
a member of the Long Island smart
set. and he. aids her. Unable to return
the money lost on the market, the girl
visits the Japanese and he,, in a fit of
anger, brands her on the shoulder. She
shoots her assailant and the husband
enters, takes the blame for the affair
and is convicted before- the wife raises
her voice in the courtroom, bares her
shoulder and exposes the Jap.

Scores' of Complaints Filed
Against Water Foreman.
INVESTIGATION TO BE MADE
. J. Gray, Subordinate of Commis
sioner Ialy, Accused of Violating
,AI1 Civil Service Rules and
Showing Gross Favoritism.
Scores of "complaints filed with Chair
man Caldwell, of the Municipal Civil
Service Board, by laborers, charging
K. J. Gray, general foreman, of the
City Water Bureau, with all kinds of
unfair dealings and open favoritism
and disregard for civil service law, are
to be the subject of an investigation
by the civil service board, ijr. Cald
well announced at a meeting of the
Board yesterday that he would lay the
proposition before. Commissioner Daly,
under whom Air. Gray serves, and de
mand an investigation.
It is declared by Mr. Caldwell that
complaints against Mr. Gray are re
ceived nearly every day', the purport of
them being that because of favoritism
civil service law in the labor circles
of the AVater Bureau is- ignored and
violated. Mr.. Caldwelr says the com
plaints are of such a nature and are so
general that an investigation is imper
ative, in fairness to ail concerned.
"I am not making any charges per
sonally against Mr, Gray,'.' .said Mr.
Caldwell yesterday. "I feel, however,
that it is time an investigation was be
ing made. Day after day men come to
my office and complain. "Within, the
last six months I have spent days at
a time doing nothing but listening to
these complaints. Some of the men
present evidence to prove their asser
tions. So persistent are the complaints
that it would appear that something is
radically wrong.
"If what the men charge is true, the
civil service law is being flagrantly
violated,' and it Is the duty of the civil
service board to investigate. It is the
duty also of other officials to ascer
tain the facts.
"An example of the charges is made
by a civil service eligible who declares
he ,was refused work when, the city
was clearing snow from the streets re
cently. Mr. Gray had charge of the em
ployment of some Of the civil service
men. The charge has been made to me
that a man listed in the civil service as
a; mechanic went to Mr. Gray and
;tked to be put to work, shoveling
snow. He says he was flatly refused,
being told the work was for laborers
and not for mechanics. Mr. Gray turned
right around, it is charged, and put
two other men, who also were on the
mechanics' civil service" list, to work.
The man who was rejected was senior
in the city service to the two men who
were put on.
"This is Just one case. I have a large
number. Scarcely a day passes that I
don't get similar complaints. I have
been so bothered at times that I have
been unable to do anything at my of
fice all day but listen to charges of
this ort against Mr. Gray."

" Henry E. Reed, who is a candidate

Samuel T. Howe, president of the
National Tax Association, visited the

"During the past eight years the

capitals for the purpose of inquiring
into the tax systems of the different
states and have also visited and In
spected a number of offices having to
do with the assessment of counties In
which there were large cities, and have
visited also the offices of the Assessors
in those cities. t
"Up to the present time the Kansas
Commission has visited no office which
is better equipped or of a hiarher stan

your department up to a high standard
of efficiency. and that von are
equipped with the best of blank forms
and of records which are essential in
equalizing the tax burden among the
owners of property, and this, of course,
should be the end sought by all Asses

fiee is not such as to procure relative
equality of assessment among the own

Corps of Inspectors, After Long Search,
Discover Trouble With Elmvrood
Apartments Fire System.
Since November 1. 1913. the janitor
at the Elmwood Apartment-House,
Tenth and Hall streets, has felt that
he has had good fire protection in the
form of an inside standpipe with the
usual form of hose reels on each floor.
The proprietor of the place has will
ingly paid the City Water Bureau J1.E0
a month for the water service for the
pipes. City inspectors of the various
types have examined the place and the
pipes and found them O. K.
But last Tuesday the long-anticipated
fire came. The janitor grabbed
the fire hose and dashed to the fire
and turned the nozzle. But not a drop
of water came. After the noise of the
fire had cleared away the city was in
formed of the failure of the standpipe
to furnish water, and the usual corps
of inspectors water, fire, building, etc.
was sent to investigate. After nearly
two days' hunt it was found that while
the water bureau had accepted pay for
the water service the water had never
been turned into the pipe. A shutoff
was dug up in the street.
The proprietor is wonderinar now
how many years It will take him to get
the water bureau to refund the money
he has paid for water service which
has not been furnished.
