ha Just returned, from Burn and
Harney County, where he has been
making Investigation preparatory to
establishing one of th biggest Irriga

In an Interview Mr. Parrtsh said:
"Th future of the great Inland
Oregon depends largely upon the suc
cess along Irrigation line. There are
great stretches of fertile land lying
adjacent to Burns which can be mad
to produce almost anything that grows
In the ground by the application of
water. Contlglous to Burns lies one of
th largest tracts of arid land In the
State of Oregon and it 1 of the most
vital Importance to the future of Cen
tral Oregon that this land be watered
as cheaply as possible.
"With railroad facilities practically
asaured to open up this hitherto un
developed territory It Is essential that
the land be made more productive In
as short a time as possible."
It 1 the Intention of Mr. parrian to
construct large pumping planta to be
operated by electricity, the water to
ba taken from the SUvles River and
pumped to the land requiring It. Mr.

R E I DENIES DEBT
Seacoast Railway Receiver's
Claim Declared False.
MONEY NEVER DEMANDED
Alleged Scheme to Prevent Building
From Astoria to Xehaiem Is De
clared Unrighteous Road's
Transaction Reviewed.
Absolute denial of the statement that
he Is Indebted to the receiver of the
Portland. Oregon. Seacoast Railway Com
pany, was made yesterday by William
Reld, the accredited builder of an ag
gregate of 193 miles of railway on both
sides of the Willamette River, wbo
declares that the report of the receiver
made 10 days ago evidently Is false
and that the facts prove It.
"It was a surprise to me," he said,
"to learn, October 27, 1908. that after
all the debt In th company had been
paid in full except those due to me for
cash disbursements, the United States
courts, without notice to any of the
company's directors, appointed a re
ceiver, but It was a greater surprise to
see In th paper last week that the
receiver reported that 'William Reld.
of Portland,' Is Indebted to that com
pany, when I have evidence to show
that I never owned more than one
share of stock and this only to qualify
me as secretary..
Stock Held as Trustee.
Mr. Reld then exhibited a contract
entered into with W. H. and W. A.
Montgomery, who now appear to be
the only creditors of the company, of
which contract the following Is a copy.
LOS ANGELES, cal. To W. H. A W. A-
Montromery. Los Angeles Referring to the
contract entertj Into and executed at Los
Angelas tnis amy oetwean you ana tne fore
land. Oregon. Bra Coast Railway Company,
wherein it la agreed that the 60 per cent
of the stock of that company, which stands
in my name ana wnicn i noia ae trustee,
le to be at your demand transferred to you
' or to any person you may designate. I beg
to say that 1 consent to this agreement, and
shall hold that stock as your trustee as se
curity to you for rarayment of the Indebt
edness which said railway company has
contracted to you. and should you desire
me at any time hereafter to transfer to you
or a'y person you may designate auch stock.
I s'isl!, on demand, make such transfer,
conditioned only that such transfer, when
demanded by you. Is made only a a col
lateral security and to enable you to obtain
rrpayroant of the Indebtedness of 10.000.
and 6 per cent Interest due by aaid railway
company to you.
WILLIAM REID. Trustee.
"In view of this document," he con
tinued, "It Is plain that I never owned
60 per cent of the stock, as the courts
of Oregon heretofore have decreed.
Hence tbe receiver never demanded a
dollar from me."
Further reviewing the history of the
company. Mr. Reld declared the al
leged scheme to prevent tbe building
of the road from Astoria to Nehalem a
most unrighteous one, saylntr that H.
Hawgood, who In 1307 was elected
president of the company, had gone
over the route In person and declared
the practicability of carrying out this
project.
Slonev Spent by Hanrgood.
"When Mr. Hawgood was . elected
president." Mr. Reld added. "I was
made secretary. He secured authority
to borrow $60,000 from the Montgom
ery, who are multl-milllonalres in
Lo Angeles, and who were to receive
0 per cent of the stock aa security. 1
wa to bold this stock as trustee for
them. The directors consented and the
contracts were drawn up. The stock
was placed in my name as trustee and
Mr. Hawgood received the 850.000. He
alone had charge of the expenditures.
-He paid (36.000 of It to H, Melville
Walker., of New Tork, for obtaining
83.6U0.O0O of first mortgage bonds sold
on account of the railway, and within
It months thereafter President Haw
good alone spent the remaining $16,000
In purchasing 80 acres of terminal
land at Clatsop near Oearhart, upon
th Astoria k Coluribla River Railroad
and he also paid 'with part of thla
$16,000 all of the dobts of the Portland,
Oregon. Sea, Cot Railway In full In
oash. except my salary and $637 of
cash, which I paid out of my own
pocket, and repayment of which I had
not asked.
"So there was no occasion for a re
ceiver on the 36th or 27th of October,
los. when he applied for one In per
son at Portland. Or. Suddenly, In the
face- of these tacts, which I am pre
pared to swear to, on President Haw
good's application and arrival in Port
land, he obtained a receiver and he
appointed C H. Warner as that receiv
er, with consent of the United States
court, and from that day till now I
have never met Mr. Warner except
once, and aside from the railway com
pany's papers, which I gave him, be
has never demanded from me any
moneys. He could not, for I never had
a dollar of the company's money In my
possession. Yet. In bis report to ine
United States court last week. I am
told he says that William Reld. of
Portland, and the Lewis ft Clark Con
struction Company, a Portland firm,
are Indebted to his railway company
in large sums, yet he admits that the
only debt of that railway company Is
$52,000, due to W. H. and W. A. Mont
gomery, who advanced $60,000. and In
terest." READING-ROOM IS OPEN

OREGON PRODUCTS SHOWN

men throughout tbe United States will

About SOD pounds of local-grown wal
nuts of the finest type were procured by
Mr. Dixon, and these were put Into ap
proximate five-pound sacks for "Santa
Clausing1' people la nearly every state in

patron with this token, snd the follow

BOISE IS RIVAL OF RENO
Lawyers Would Stop Issuance of Di
vorces of Convenience.,
BOISE, Idaho. Dec. 24. (SpeclaW
Idaho loses Its reputation as a divorce
center, Boise ceases to be the Mecca for
Reno's overflow of matrimonial bond
breakers. If a resolution recently of the
Ada County Bar Association goes Into
effect, providing for one year's residence
Instead of six months, as is now the
case, before application oan be made for
divorce.
With less notoriety than Reno. Boise
Is a rendesvoua of society men and
women of many states who seek separa
tion. One recent notable case was that of
Valentine Winters, president of the Day
ton Traction Company. Dayton. O.. a
roan of wealth and social prominence.
Winters lived In fashionable quarters
In Boise for six months, snd then ap
plied for a divorce from his wife, who
bitterly contested th petition on th
grounds of religious scruples.
Judge Fremont Wood refused th de
cree snd scored Winters for coming to
Idaho to "purchase" a divorce from his
was unsuccessful: others of
equal prornlnenoe were more fortunate.
Many migrated to Idaho from New York
and kept their Identity secret, and the
divorce mills work overtime.
While the Ada County Bar Association
did not adopt the two following resolu
tions dealing with the same subject. It
placed the stamp of approval on them
after deliberation: .
"First That all marriages within six
months' time sfter a decree has been
obtained in Idaho be held absolutely yold.
whether the offender be married in Idaho
or In another state.
"Second That divorces be granted from
bed and board without the right to either
party to remariT. for the same caure
for which absolute divorce can now be
obtained." . .
One In every five marriages In Ada
County is a failure, according to the rec
ords. About 10 per cent of the divorces
Is attributed to non-residents who come
for the express purpose of obtaining a
decree and who afterwards return home.

When, on September L 190L

manipulation, however, we were
able to make a fairly good
showing In the one window we
called our own, and we soon
learned that a large stock of

made up for what we lacked In

cordingly each week, each
month, each year a growth in
nine years from the amalleat to
the Largest Jewelry Store la

To those who have so kindly
sent ti:ir fritnrts to we are
more than grateful. These new
customers will always receive
the best treatment In our power.
If we fail to please them it will
be because we don't know how
