DETAILS NOT YET ADOPTED
Cnless Another' Chapter ot Long Le
gal Fight Is Begun by Heirs,
Large Estate Will Soon
I5c Available.
Within the next year it is expected that
the Reed Institute will stand on the
urge of realization and that all prelimi
paues will have been cleared away so
that the actual work of building con
struction may be taken up. This expec
tation is held by the trustees and those
in whose hands the late Amanda W.
Seed left the bulk of her big fortune for
the puvposo of effecting the establish
ment of an institute of technical and
special learning.
Filing of articles of incorporation with
:he County Clerk's office yesterday gave
leiinite form to the new institution of
'.earning. These articles establish the
project in corporate form and will tend
to be of benefit In clearing away the net
work of lltigatidn and administrative
problems that have, surrounded the estate
lime the will of Mrs. Reed was made
known.
Much Preliminary Work.
The articles merely make the way for
the laying of plans. No definite plans as
to the courses of study and the hundred
ind one other details have yet been for
mulated. All such subjects will be taken
up hereafter by the trustees and passed
upon in due time. It is not in the least
txpected thur anything can be accom
plished towards actual realization of the
Keed Institute this year.
In the articles of incorporation the
jame cited is "The Reed Institute." The
trustees appear as incorporators. C. A.
Oolph. C. K. Wofverton, T. L. Eliot, Mar
gin Winch and W. P. Olds. The dura
tion is given as unlimited. The purposes
re set forth as follows:
"To establish and maintain at Port
nnd an institution of learning wherein
lhall be 'taught the principles of scien
tific, literary and classical education,
with such departments of learning, gal
leries of art. natural and technical mu
leums, appliances of manual training and
luch other departments and appliances
s the trustees may prescribe.
'
Alms of School.
"To promote intellectual and moral cul
ture, the development of the fine arts and
the diffusion of practical knowledge
among the citizens of Portland and State
)f Oregon and especially deserving young
men and women earning their own live
lihood." It is prescribed that the Institute
.nay take over, manage and invest
property bequeathed by Mrs. Reed and
may receive gifts or bequests from
Dther persons.
Property having an estimated value
of $1,000,000 is available to the insti
tute. Its source of income will be the
proceeds from the residuary estate, to
gether with gifts and such moderate
rates of tuition as may be Imposed by
the trustees or incorporators. A pro
vision is set out that no trustee may
receive any compensation for his
services. Dr. Eliot is chairman of the
board of trustees, and Mr. Winch sec
retary. These offices, it is provided,
are to be filled by election on the third
Tuesday in June of each year.
Plans Delayed by Heirs.
It was learned that much remains
to be effected before building plans
can be gone ahead with. As will be
generally recalled, the estate has been
beset by litigation of a most persistent
nature by heirs seeking portions of
the estate. Although Mrs. Reed lived
for years in Portland and was looked
upon as essentially a Portland woman,
her death occurred in California,
where she had fitted up an elaborate
residence. Under the California laws,
the large bequest for the Reed Insti
tute was not valid, and the question
was raised as to Mrs. Reed's actual
place of residence at her death in
1904. The case was tried in the
County Court, the State Circuit Court,
and was carried to the Supreme Court
of Oregon. Litigation likewise oc
curred in California, but the heirs who
sought to break the will and share
more fully In the estate lost.
Administration of the estate has
progressed favorably. Recently appli
cation was made by Mr. Winch, as ad
ministrator, for an order authorizing
payment of the various bequests, and
the consequent transference of the re
siduary estate to the Reed Institute
trustees.
Wish or Mrs. Reed.
It was Mrs. Reed's expressed wish
that there should be a corporation,
but such action was not possible in
the past, on account ot an old Oregon
law making it impossible for a relig
ious or educational corporation to
hold property In excess of $500,000.
This section of the code was repealed
by the 1907 Legislature under a bill
introduced by Senator Dan J. Malar
key. Just whether there is to be any fur
ther litigation Is a question which, of
course, cannot be settled. As to what
demands will be made by heirs on final
settlement, nothing can be said. Diffi
culties may arise in the final settle
ment which will further delav the
benevolent project. although "it is
hoped not by the trustees.
After all the little problems of the
estate have been solved and all dis
sensions eliminated, the paying oft of
the heirs and persons named in the
will can be .disposed of. thus making
the residuary estate available. At
that time, the. Reed Institute will en
ter Into the Oregon educational world
as an important actuality.
CONVICTED JM A BARTER
Hyde and Schneider Accuse Jury of
Gross Misconduct.
WASHINGTON. June 27. Misconduct
of thejury after the case was submitted

of Frederick A. Hyde and Joost H.

NEBRASKA BRYAN' BOOMERS

Four Special Trains to Carry Sup
porters of State's Candidate
to Convention City.
OMAHA. Neb.. June 21. "Whatever may
be said of W. J. Bryan's Nebraska sup
porters before and after the Denver con
vention; whatever criticisms or plaudits
may be meted out to their leader and
his policies, none shall be able to say
after the National gathering that
Nebraska Democrats did not do them
selves proud in making their presence
known by the wide-open hospitality ex
tended to the delegates and their friends
while they are present in the convention
city. It will be the third time Nebraska
has been called upon to show the stuff
it is made of, and, without mincing
words, National Committeeman Dahlman
"Our Jim," declares that the thousand
odd delegates and a similar number of
alternates who go to Denver will be
shown how the democracy of Bryan's
home state appreciates the support they
have given the man who began his poli
tical career as the "silver-tongued orator
of the Platte" and hopes to conclude it
with a term in the White House. .
The 16 Nebraska delegates will form
but a small integral part of the im
mense crowd of Bryan enthusiasts who
will go to Denver, and Dahlman admits
that not less than $.'5,000 will be spent
by the' Democrats of Bryan's state with a
view to showing the people of the country
that they do not do things by halves.
Four special trains have been chartered
to carry the organized sections of de
mocracy to Denver; and many hundreds
will go as individuals. Not less than
2o0( Nebraska ns propose to be In the convention-
city and join in the entertain
ment of visiting delegates and the dem
onstration for their favorite son.
Speaking of the expense of placing "Wil
liam J. Bryan's name before the Denver
convention, National Committeeman Dahl
man had this to say:
"We feel that the occasion is one which
demands that Nebraska Democrats do
their whole duty and I have heard not a
word of dissent from any of them. The
expense of the special trains, mainten
ance of headquarters; as fine as money
can procure, and the entertainment of
visiting delegates has been placed at $25,000
but I can see where it will require much
more than that amount. Our people
have felt that the occasion warrants the
effort and the accompanying expense and
have cheerfully dug down into their
Jeans to pay the bills. We will show
the East and West and the North and the
South the meaning of true Western hos
pitality, and will be early an the ground
for that purpose. We will also show
thera that Nebraska has some wealth and
knows how to spend it on occasions of
this kind.
"We expect but one name to be pre
sented to the convention, and that will
be Bryan's. I do not believe Minnesota
will present Johnson. They can't afford
to do it. Of the thousand odd delegates
accredited, nearly 800 are for Bryan to
start with, and there is not the slightest
doubt in my mind that he will receive
the solid vote of New York and Penn
sylvania." To meet the expense of maintaining
headquarters a fund of $5000 has been
appropriated, and the delegates and
Bryan volunteers will be assessed to pay
the bill. This assessment will be made
pro rata with the ability of delegates to
pay. Some will be asked to contribute
$30. while others will receive a hint that
from $100 to $200 wfll be their assessment.
The Volunteers will furnish one of the
political attractions at Denver, where a
number of their leaders will spend five
or six days during the convention or
ganizing outside states for the campaign.

EXPLORES THE INTERIOR
H. A. HTJXTER RETCRXS FROM
TRIP THROUGH OREGON.
Travels Military Land-Grant Road
and Makes More Than 800 Miles
by Wagon, and Horseback.
Completing perhaps the lonuest and
most thorough tour of Oregon that has
been made since the old pioneer days,
H. A. Hunter, of Minneapolis, and a
party of associates returned to Portland
yesterday. They traversed more th:;n 800
miles in Southern Oregon by wagon and
on horseback.
The party made a thorough study of
geographical, climatic and other condi
tions of thj vast unknown area compris
ing the southern portion of fnis state.
Instruments were used to test hot only
the soil, but climatic and atmospheric
conditions at various altitudes and places.
According to Mr. Hunter, the unknown,
uncultivated empire of the southern por
tion of this state offers greater opportu
nities than any other part of America.
The party traveled the old Military
Land Grant road from the eastern bor
ders of Harney County to the City of
Eugene. Not in years, perhaps since
the days when the oxteam and pioneer
wended their way into the wilderness;
has the famous old route been followed
more closely.
For years Mr. Hunter was connected
with the Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany in Its land department. It Is said
that he has sold more land than any man
of his years in this country. He and his
associates are now arranging a huge
colonization scheme for Southern Oregon.
The company he represents has se
cured possession of the entire area of
land' known as the old Oregon Military
Land Grant. The tract comprises an
area of considerably more than 300.000
acres, and it was for the purpose of per
fecting plans for the colonization and
settlement of this enormous district that
Mr. Hunter and his party made the
tedious trip. In connection with the plan
of colonization the company has opened
headquarters in this city, and offices in
various large Eastern cities.
"We left the train at Austin, In the
extreme eastern part of the state," said
Mr. Hunter last night. "We then trav
eled for more than 800 miles along the old
route of the Oregon Military Land Grant
road as far as the City of Eugene.
"And after traversing that section of
the state. I want to tell you people of
Oregon that you actually don't know
what you have. An area bigger than
some states, practically unsettled and
Just as it was when the Creator made it.
offers more opportunities than any tract
of land I have ever seen.
"There are grazing lands, fruit lands,
mineral possibilities, and. Indeed, every
thing that man could desire. In all that
section, especially in the vicinity of Lake
view and the Goose Lake Valley, we en
countered numerous surveying parties.
Railroads are doing an extensive amount
of skirmish work in Southern Oregon and
are evidently preparing to attempt to get
the better of each other in opening up
that big territory."
Among the towns visited along the
route were Natron. Vale, Lakevlew,
Klamath Falls. Eugene and many others.
