81 SPECULATORS
Bona Fide Settlers Crowded
Out of Federal Irriga
tion Tracts.
GARFIELD LEARNS
TRUTH)
Secretary Seeks Method of Freezing
Out Speculators May Require
Large Advance Payment
for Water Right.
OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU.
Washington, Sept. 14. Speculators are
overrunning Government irrigation
projects, crowding out bona flde set
tlers, and are undertaking to hold land
until after water is turned on, when
they propose to sell at a good profit.
This fact was discovered by Secretary
Garfield and, Director Newell on their
rerent tour -through the West, and in
some localities it was found that a
majority of the entries had been made
by persons who intend to sell out, and
who have no idea of making perma
nent homes on the land.
How to eliminate speculators Is a
Jiroblem on which the Department is
now working. The most feasible plan
at hand appears to be the requirement
that all settlers on land under Gov
ernment projects be compelled to pay
one-tenth of the cost of their water
right at the time they make filing in
the local Land Office. Usually the
first payment, is not demanded until
one year after wader is delivered on
the land.
At Huntley, Montana, advance pay
ments were required and in conse
quence that Is the only project in the
West that is free from speculators.
Jlr. Garfield is expected soon to take
some action looking to checking spec
ulations. SMALL HOPK OF PROMOTION
feourne's. Plea on Behalf of Colonel
Crawford Turned Dow n.
OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU.
"Washington, Sept. 14. Colonel Medo
rem Crawford, of the Artillery Corps,
United States Army, now in command
.at Fort Wadsworth. will retire from
active service in January next. Colonel
Crawford, an Oregonlan by birth, ap
nea led to Senator Bourne some time
ago in the hope of securing promo
tion to the grade of Brigadier-General
before retirement. The Senator took
the case up with President Roosevelt
and .urged Colonel Crawford's prmo
tion in October, when a vacancy occurs
in the grade of Brigadier-General, but
the President, after due consideration,
held that another officer was more
entitled to this recognition. As this
Ik the last vacancy to occur before
Colonel Crawford's retirement, his pV
motion is out of the question, unless
death or resignation should create an
unexpired vacancy.

Work has begun on the construction
of a $600,000 cement plant rjt Three
Forks, a town east of Helena, at the
junction of the Gallatin, Madison and
Jefferson Rivers, on both the Northern
Pacific and St. Paul railways. As a
result of cheap basic materials, the
company purposes marketing the prod'

present.
The plant will have an ultimate ca
pacity of 1000 barrels a day, and will
be the largest of Its kind in this sec

ama Canal Zone.
SHOW $500,000 IN GOLD
Unique Display of Mineral Wealth
at Montana State Fair.
HELENA, Mont,, Sept. 14. (Spe
cial.) The Montana State Fair, to be
LH
RRUN
held in this city September 30 to Oc
tober 5, promises to have one of the
most unique as well as valuable ex
hibits in proportion to space occupied
ever seen t any such event, state or
National. This will consist of ex
hibits of gold bricks from Montana
mines. Although the movement started
only three days ago, upwards of $100,
000 has been pledged already, and it
is expected that by the time the fair
gates are opened fully $500,000 in
precious metals will have been secured.
The Bald Butte Company, of Helena,
hae sent in a brick about 12x4x5 Inches,
weighing 1300 ounces and valued at
$24,000. It being 77-100ths pure. The
Ruby Gulch Company, of Zortman, has
pledged four bars of cyanide gold and
silver ores worth approximately $40,
000, and the Spring Hill Company, of
Helena, will display its first cleanup
from ores now being treated at the new
mill. This mine is supposed to con
tain the "mother" lode of Last Chance
Gluch Main street, Helena, "which
yielded $35,000 to the placer miners In
the ,early days. Its ore is very rich
and will swell the total to the $100,
000 mark easily.
Naturally the bars will be most
carefully guarded, although, because
of their great weight, thieves could not
carry them any great distance. That
other counties will send In similar ex
hibits admits of no doubt.
LETS BURGLAR ESCAPE
LXIOX POLICEMAN WILL XOT
WORK OVERTIME.
Ignores Plea of Woman Pursuing
Criminal Effect of Unionism
on Public Service.
CHICAGO, Sept'. 14. -(Special.) Labor
union sentiment as it would affect the po
lice and Are departments was exemplified
today when a policeman, just off duty,
refused to capture a burglar who had Just
robbed a house and was pursued by the
woman he had robbed. The policeman
stood across the street, deaf to the wom
an's entreaties, and saw the burglar de
part with his plunder.
"I am off duty," he told Mrs. G. H.
Wallar, the victim. "I have done a hard
day's work and do not think it worth
while taking chances of being shot.
Pleasant day, isn't it?"
The trial board and police officials de
cline to give the name of the officer,
who undoubtedly will be eeparated from
the force at once. Authorities say this
would be the general attitude of polico
men and firemen if they were permitted
to form labor unions. The evil is al
ready marked in the public schools, where
the union secured a strong foothold dur
ing the former city administration.
JAPANESE EVADE THE LAW
Get Passports to Go to Mexico, but
Stay in United States.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 14. (Special.)
According to officials of the Immigration
Bureau of the Department of Commerce
and Labor, Japanese immigrants have
found a way to evade the new immigra
tion law passed by the last Congress,
which requires all Japanese laborers to
have passports to continental United
States before being given permission to
become, permanent residents 'here.
As is well known, many Japanese who
failed to get these passports have re
cently arrived In Mexico and Canada.
There is now a demand for permission
for large numbers of Japanese to pass
through the United States in bond from
Canada to Mexico and vice versa. Within
the last few weeks 499 Japanese have
entered the United States under these
conditions, 350 of whom have failed to
present themselves at their respective
destinations, although they have had
ample time to do so. The remaining 149
have either shown up or have been cap
tured and deported.
Large numbers of veterans of the Russian-Japanese
War continue to seek ad
mission to the United States. It is re
ported that recently out of 71 Japanese
denied admission on the Pacific Coast be
cause of failure to have the necessary
passport, 51 were former privates and 12
former officers of the Japanese army in
the late war.
EXPEL JUMPERS BY FORCE
Imperial Valley Settlers Unite, to
Protect Their" Farms.
IMPERIAL, Cal., Sept. 14. More than
500 settlers in Imperial Valley within the
past 24 hours have joined the Settlers'
Protective Association, organized yester
day to meet raids on land by jumpers and
contesters. It is reported here that a car
load of jumpers is being organized in Los
Angeles to raid land in the valley and
hold by force against the original claim
ants. A number of .claims already" have
been jumped, Including several well-cultivated
farms.
It is the intention of the settlers to
drive off by force and meet Invaders on
their arrival and order them to leave.
During the last three weeks the situa
tion has been drifting towards a critical
stage through the operations of an or
ganized band, which sends men here with
alleged information on which land can
be contested or Jumped. Indications point
to a serious clash between ,the jumpers
and the organized settlers.

NEW AVENGER
Herreshoff Designing Boat to
Beat Shamrock IV.
FIFE AT WORK IN IRELAND
Cup-Defender Will Be a Sloop on
Lines" of Victor In Last Year's
Races Lipton's Design
Depends on Rules.
BRISTOL, R. I., Sept. 14. The an
nouncement of a fourth challenge for
the America's cup by Sir Thomas Lip
ton has revived interest here regarding
yachting.
Nathaniel C. Herreshoff, the designer
of the cup defenders of the past 14
years, refused today to comment upon
the anticipated race next year, but it
is known that he has been in confer
ence with ex -Commodore E. D. Morgan,
of the New York Yacht Club, who man
aged the Columbia in 1901, and also
with C- Oliver Iselin, who had charge
of the Vigilant In 1S99 and the Re
liance in 1903. Mr. Iselin was in Bris
tol last' week and closeted with Mr.
Herre3hoff for more than an hour.
From an authoritative source it has
been learned that Mr. Herreshoff has
completed preliminary designs for a
90-foot sloop yacht, according to the
so-called universal rule. It is said that
this yacht Is an enlarged Avenger, the
boat which has been so successful dur
ing the past year. The Avenger won
at the principal races in the cruise of
the Eastern Yacht Club to Bar Harbor
md defeated her competitors In the
most important runs of the New York
Yacht Club cruise last month. The
Avenger is in the 57-foot class and is
looked upon as an ideal boat, especially
In light weather.
BUILD SHAMROCK IX IRELAND
Lipton's Design Depends on Changes
In Racing Rules.
GLASGOW. Scotland. Sept. 14. William
Fife, to whom the commission for design
ing Sir Thomas Lipton's new challenger
for the America's cup has provisionally
been given, worked on plans and models
nearly ail the Summer, but it is impos
sible for him to complete them, as no de
cision has been arrived at as to what
rating rule would govern the contest. It
it understood, however, that all Mr. Fife's
experiments were in the direction of pro
ducing such a boat as would he. built for
racing under the new international rule,
now accepted by the yacht racing asso
ciations of all the-Buropean countries.
Therefore, it is believed that the chal
lenge sent through the Royal Irish Yacht
Club stipulates this rule or the rule
favored by the New York Yacht Club for
Its home racing, which gets the same re
sults by different methods. It was at first
proposed to build the challenger at the
Falrlie yards, but this is now doubtful.
Sir Thomas in challenging through the
Royal Irish Yacht Club, desired to have
his yacht more Irish than ever, and nege
tiations will be opened with a Belfast firm
to build the Shamrock IV.
AITCHISON TO VISIT EAST
Will Attend National Gatherings of
' Railroad Commissioners.
C. B. Aitchison, of the State Rail
road Commission, will leave the last
of the month tor the East, where he
will attend the sessions of the Na
tional Association of Railroad Commis
sioners at Washinhgton, D. C, and the
Northwestern Association of Railroad
Commissioners at St. Paul. Both thene
meetings will be held early in October.
The session at Washington promises to
be of more than usual interest. Per
haps the chief topic, to come up for
consideration will be the question of
the National regulation of all com
merce. This is apparently the ten
dency of the time and the many
phases of this question will make ma
terial for an inteesting discussion.
Another matter that is of great in
terest to the commissions of the dif
ferent states is a uniform system -of
accounting. The Interstate Commerce
Commission has lately taken up a new
method whereby earnings and expenses
of railways- are divided by state lines.
This matter will be discussed at length
with a view to uniting all commis
sions on a single rule: The Interstate
Commerce Commission is sending one
of its members around to the different
State Commissions to determine their
views on this subject.
The Washington session which will
undouotedly be attended by the mem
bers of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission will be largely' educational for
members of the newer commissions.
When it is understood that the
States of Oregon, Nevada. Ohio, Mon
tana, Colorado, Michigan and Nebraska
have formed railway, commissions
since the last meeting of the National
body, and that New York has replaced
a weak Railroad Commission, with few
powers, with the Public Utilities Com
mission, and Alabama has revised her
Commission law. It will be seen that
the work of railroad regulation by
commissions is of wide scope and ef
fect, and new Commissioners need a
large amount of education.
The meeting at St. Paul will be of
more direct interest, perhaps, to mem
bers of the Commissioners of the West,
where vital questions that affect each
state will be discussed. Like the
Washington gathering, it will be
largely attended. Commissioner Aitch
ison will be the only member of the
Oregon body to attend these gather
ings. PERSONAMVIENTION.

WIFE-BEATER IS PENITENT
After Being Nearly Killed, He For

CHICAGO, Sept. 14. (Special.) Two
hundred infuriated steel-workers at In
diana Harbor, at noon today battered
down the door" at fhe homa of 'Charles
Jaeger, a shoemaker, guilty of wife
beating, threw a noose about his neck

kicking and beating him terribly, and
hanged him to the cross-arm of a tele

A patrol wagon loaded with policemen
rushed into the crowd and managed to
cut the man down In time to save his
life, although he was unconscious and
nearly dead. Jaeger haa beaten his wife
shockingly, his customary diversion
whenever he gets drunk, which is often,
and the neighbors determined to stop it.
After he was revived today, he pledged
the community never again to strike or
curse his wife, with the understanding
that If he breaks the vow death will be
his portion. The police made no attempt
to arrest any of the would-be lynchers.
