EFFORT TO BLOCK
SALE THREATENED
Oklahoma Man Declares Much
of Oregon Valley Land Co.'s
Tract Is Worthless.
WILL APPEAL TO M'COURT
K. T. Rehf ield Would Prevent Draw
ing at Lakevlew, but Agent of
H ' Company Asserts Charges
Are Groundless.
Contending: that much of the land is
worthless, B. T. Rehfleld, of Guthrie,
Okla.. while In Klamatn fans yeicruj,
a'.d he would ask United States Attorney
McCourt to prevent the allotment by the
Oregon Valley- Land Company of about
300.000 acres of agricultural land In Lake.
I v. nd Malheur counties. TUe awara or mo
tracts to purchasing settlers is scneouieu
for Thur-idav. September 9. at lAKeview.
Mr. Rehfleld was in Klamath Falls yes
terday and Is expected to reach Portland
tomorrow.
The Oregon Valley Land Company Is
a Kanwis Citv corporation, whose local
representative Is C. M. Hyskell. About
a year ago this company purcnasea irom
the Booth-Kelly Lumber Company about
6XMt acres of land In Lake and Malheur
counties, the tract being a part of the
original Oregon 'Military Road Land
Orant of 1S5. the first land grant maae
in this state. The purchase consisted of
a strip of land extending from the
Klamath Indian Reservation, tnrougn
I-ake and Malheur counties, to the Idaho
Late line.
Tracts Vary in Size.
Selecting from the entire area about
iCW.000 acres of the best agricultural land,
the company subdivided the tract into
farms of from 10 to WOO acres each, which
it placed on the market for sale at the
uniform price of SX0 for each farm. Con
tracts covering the entire 300.0000 acres
have been sold, principally to Eastern
people who are seeking home in the
West. The drawing by which these
farms are to be allotted will be held at
Lakcvlew. September 9.
v The plan of drawing by which the al
lot mnt will be made differs- from the
usual land lottery, in that for his invest
ment of $20) each contract-holder Is en
titled to a tract of land ranging in sire
from 10 acres to lOuO acres. The method
adapted by the company provides that
on the day of the drawing the contract
holders shall assemble either in person
or by their representatives and select
from among their number three trustees
who shall conduct the distribution of
farms.
The names of all contract-holders are
listed, together with a number indicating
some particular tract. These are dis
posed1 of by bidding, but by reason of the
fact that the prospective purchasers real
ize that they are entitled to from 10 to
V'M acres for the price of $200, the bid
ding seldom exceeds that figure, the only
Instances being when an especially de
' sirable tract is offered.
Agent of Company Talks.
"The proceeding is entirely regular."
Faid Sir. Hyskell last night. "The
Lakeview drawing will be the same as
drawings conducted by this company
in other states. It has the sanction
of the Federal authorities, and we do
not anticipate any interference from
that source.
"I do not know who Mr. Rehfleld Is,
although he claims to represent a num
ber of other Oklahoma parties. He
evidently expected to get possesion of
$50-an-acre land at the rate of 20 cents
an acre, the price at which several
1000-acre tracts included in the tract
will be disposed of. A great deal of
the land is valuable for agricultural
purposes.
"The larger tracts will consist of the
poorer land, while such parts of the
grant as can be irrigated successfully
have been divided into the smaller
tracts. I do not hesitate to say that
the worst of the entire tract is fully
as good land and just as desirable as
the unsold school land held by the
State of Oregon and which is sold at Jo
an acre."
OAK CUTTING REGRETTED
Protest Made as to Removal of Trees
at Salem.
PORTLANT. Aug. 28. (To the Editor.)
It was my privilege last Wednesday to
have visited the State Fair Grounds of
Oregon, and it seems to me that there
ought to be some law that will enjoin the
officers from cutting down the oak trees
that beautify the said grounds. It was
my first visit to Oregon in 31 years, and
I am surprised and grieved that there
should be such a wanton destruction of
the beautiful oak, the pride of all state
fair grounds. It does seem strange that
there is not 'tough state pride to pre
serve these trees. In looking over the
grounds. I find that every time a build
ing is erected, down must come the oak
trees. Have the proper officials a con
viction that by removing the oak trees
that the grounds are beautified?
I can recall that we camped where state
buildings now stand and we had no idea
that anybody would have so little pride
in the grand oaks as to encroach each
. year upon the grove. Is there no one in
Oregon who will enjoin such work? It Is
pure vandalism. 1 once lived in Oregon
and enjoyed attending tle State Fairs.
While at Salem. I witnessed the cutting
of trees whose presence in the grove add
ed thousands of dollars to the value of
the state's grounds. As I now live in a
section barr enof trees. I can appreciate
fully the worth of the oaks, and while
away for nearly a third of a century I
still bold in dear memory the oak trees
at the State Fair Grounds.

SEARCH FOR BODY KEEPS UP
Callaghan Offers Reward for Corpse
of Brother.
TACOMA. Wash.. Aug. 28. (Special.)
Relatives and friends of A. Y. Callaghan,
lost on Mount Rainier August 14. with
Mr. Stevens, of Trenton, K. J., are still
continuing the search.
Mrs. Clara Bewich Colby and Mrs. M.
Frink, of Portland, Or., arrived in Ta
coma and left on the afternoon train
for Mount Rainier, to aid in the search
on behalf of Owen Callaghan. Mr. Cal
laglian has offered a reward of $2000 for
the rescue of his brother living or $1000
for the recovery of the body.
Owen Callaghan, who was In Tacoma
a few days after an extended search on
the mountain, said he felt satisfied his
brother and Mr. Stevens had met their
death on the mountain and had prob
ably perished by falling into a deep cave
on the crater or into a crevasse. He
was quoted as saying it would be wrong
to ask men to take the risk of searching
the mountain.
