? LAND OPERATORS HELD
C Byron and T. E. Alley Charged
Wlth Using Malls for Fraudtt-
r
Jent Purposes Pair In-
.? dieted Twice Before.
Twenty-six indictments, of which
eight weTs against alleged war-census
' lackers, An'4 two for fraudulent use
. .of the mails fn a. land-locating- scheme,
-were returned by the United States
Brand Jury in its final report yester
day. The two men indicted for using- the
Viails to defraud were Carlos L. Byron,
' of Seattle, and Frank E. Alley, the
vrell-known horseman, of Roseburfir.
Tbe Indictments are aimed at alleged
fraudulent practices by Byron and XI
ley in locating persons on public lands
not open to entry.
Both men have been twice indicted
previously in connection with the same
-alleged offense. These previous in
ttictments were for perjury, however,
and the court held in both cases that
the perjury charged had to do with an
' immaterial point in the case.
Misrepresentation Is Alleged.
"This time the indictments against
iaem were returned on the ground that
they had used the mails in communi
cations with their alleged victims.
-F. A. Hyde & Co., over whose oper
ations arose the famous Hyde-Benson
land cases, these lands being the ones
Involved in the indictments against
Syron and Alley, obtained much land
fraudulently in California. Using such
lajid as a base, F. A. Hyde & Co. made
inany lieu land selections in the Na
tional forests of Oregon.
.The Government instituted contests
Against these lieu land selections.
, Byron and Alley, the Government
charges in the present cases, repre
sented to prospective settlers that be
cause of the Government's contests,
the lands were open to entry and could
be filed on under the timber and stone
sot. On these representations, it is
Charged, they induced aproximately 300
persons to pay them sums ranging
from $100 to J1000 each as locating
fees.
; " Government Rejects Filings.
As fast as the applicants filed on the
lands the Government rejected the fil
ings on the ground that the lands were
. not open to entry. The Government
charges that Byron and Alley would
toll on the alleged victims by an elabo
rate system of appeals to high Govern
ment authorities.
' For example, according to the alle
gations of the Government, Byron and
Alley would locate a man on a tract,
and the subsequent filing would be re
jected by the local Land Office. Byron
and Alley then would appeal to the
Commissioner of the General Land Of
fice, who in course of time would up
hold the local office.
Then, the Government declares, Byron
and Alley would carry the appeal to
the Secretary of the Interior. It gen
erally took about two years from the
original filing before the Secretary
would reject the filings because the
lands were not open to entry. "When
this occurred, the Government says,
Byron and Alley would locate their vic
tim on a' new tract and start proceed
ings all over again.
The eight alleged slackers Indicted
are: Perry Morgan, Harry M. Hyde
: and Guy Jenkins, of Frineville: "Will
: Jam Hund, of Roseburg; Henry E.
Schneider, of Gaston; Clarence Estepp.
of Eugene; Robert Zornes, of Yale, and
.Soy Miller, of Fossil.
Postoffice Robberies Alleged.
"William E. Collins and Sam Rubber
-were indicted for breaking Into and
robbing the postoffice at Phoenix, Or..
and also for attempting to break into
and rob the postoffice at Roseburg.
They were caught there after Sheriff
Quine and a deputy, from a hiding
place had watched them pry open a
window, and thus obtained the evidence
against them.
These two, together with Donald
Matheson, also were indicted for con
spiracy to break into and rob a post
office. R. L. Boehmer, of Pendleton, was In
dicted for operating a retail liquor
dealer's business without a Federal li
cense. -Jake S. McCown. of The Dalles, was
Indicted for pasturing cattle in the
Oregon National Forest.
Leonard Anderson, James Anderson
snd Henry Wolf were indicted for
stealing Federal property off the sail
ing ship Dreadnaught, formerly th
German ship Kurt.
GODDESS OF LIBERTY LIVES
N. E. A. Committee's Plea Wins and
. Statue Will Get Home,
The Goddess of Liberty, who smiled
goldenly over the Rose Festival, is
not to be smashed, after all, but is to
stay right where she is until after the
Jtational Education Association conven
tion, and then she is to be found a nice,
comfortable permanent place with the
city or the county.
- Tt was decided recently by the board
of directors of the Rose Festival to de
stroy her unless a purchaser could be
found, but a plea was made by the N.
E. A. committee to let her stand until
after their convention. Just what ar
rangements will be made with city or
county are not yet determined, but it is
suggested that she be placed in one of
the parks or on the Columbia Highway

SEWING HAPPY TASK
Junior League Girls Turn Out
Red Cross Supplies.
3 DAYS EACH WEEK GIVEN
Hands Used to Doing Bits of Em
broidery Are Deft and Swift in
Operating Machines "Big
Number Give Their Time.
Employers have become employes in
the sewing factory of tne junior
League In the Worcester building, for
the time being and that is part of the
fortunes of war.
Two years ago the Junior League put
in the sewing machines xnere sun
established their apron factory, to fur
nish work for unemployed women in
Portland, and in the past two years the
factory has made it possible for many a
wnmnn to stave off want and to take
care of herself and those dependent
upon her.
Of course, in tne summer unemploy
ment falls off. The machines were be
coming Idle again, two weeks ago.
when the Junior League young women
bethought themselves of the country's
need, and the factory that tney naa
established and maintained presented
itself to them as a means of doing
service "pro patria."
v Red Cross Is Aided.
They had intended to use the $1300
from the Ian Hay lecture to purchase
some supplies to be made up for the
Red Cross, but instead they turned the
money over to the general Red Cross
fund and decided to draw materials
from the Red Cross and make up the
suonlies with their own hands.
Bath robes and bed shirts and oper
ating sheets were needed, and the Red
Cross had the raw material to furnish
if someone would furnish the work of
sewing it.
Then the Junior League gins went
Into voluntary employment for their
country and set the idle sewing ma
chines humming again, sewing up the
cloth that was furnished and turning
out an amazing quantity of the needed
supplies.
Three days a week they have given
to the work. From 10 to 4 o'clock the
plan was, but many of the girls came
down at S o clock in the morning Just
to be sure to get in a full day.
Hands that were used to doing bits
of embroidery, perhaps, for gifts, or
maybe putting in a few touches in the
final creation of some miracle of dainty
lingerie, proved just as deft and swift

HOME IS IN PHILIPPINES
Conditions Discussed With Herbert
C. Hoover and General Pershing
and Several Addresses AV1H
Be Delivered on Situation.
Right Rev. C. II. Brent, Episcopal bish
op of the Philippines, reached Portland
yesterday on the Shasta Limited from
San Francisco on his way back to his
headquarters at Manila, after an ex
tended tour to the war zone in France.
He will sail from a northern port soon
Bishop Brent has been most active in
the work of the Red Cross and allied
organizations for soldiers' relief work,
and has been received warmly through
out this country. He came across the
Atlantic with Herbert C Hoover, and
was offered a place on the food com
mission with him. but was compelled
to decline it.
Bishop Brent left France the day the
United States declared formally that a
state of war existed between this coun
try and Germany. He went thence to
London and remained in England until
June 20. He preached in St. Paul's on
America day, when the entry of this
country Into the war was celebrated
by the British with thanksgiving
cervices.
General Penh Ins Met.
Upon his arrival at Washington he
met General Pershing, who Bishop
Brent knows intimately, having made
his acquaintance when the General was
on dutv In the Philippines. He consid
ered sailing with the General for
France, but decided he had not the
time to return there.
Bishop Brent, as a member or tne
American Red Cross War Council, has
spent the past two months actively en
gaged In that work. He will speak
this morning at St. Stephen's Pro
Cathedral on the topic "The Red Cross
and the Soldiers' Work in the
Trenches." Tonight he will occupy the
pulpit at St. David's, and tomorrow
night he will speak at a mass meeting
In the auditorium ai uncom
School on the war situation. While in
Portland, Bishop Brent Is the guest of
Right Rev. Walter T. Sumner. Bishop
of Oregon.
BlshoD Brent is a friend of Mr.
Hoover, and he regards him as an ex
ceptional man.
Mr. Hoover Extolled.
"I consider him one of tire biggest
men in the country." he declared. "He
is a perfectly selfless roan, and Eng
land and France rank him very high,
and Justly so.
"I regard General Pershing as a
first-class man and a fine head for the
American forces in France. I knew
him in the Philippines, where he was
Governor of the nouthern part of the
group."
Bishop Brent is one of the longest
American residents in the Philippines.
He went over with ex-President Taft
almost 16 years ago, and his service
since that time has been continuous.
He finds much to like in the islands,
and says the climate, although trying
to many, seems to agree with him.
"The Philippines constitute an Im
portant factor in the present world sit
uation," he said. "A strong nation,
such as ours, must protect the weak and
struggling one, such as the islands. I
like the Filipinos and believe they have
a great deal of capacity."

"In the Spring

Turns to the divorce eourt as well
as the marriage altar. Interesting
statistics are reveled in the divorce
records of Multnomah County during
the month of June and even though
young Dan Cupid has been on the Job
both day and night during the "month
of brides," the divorce mill has been
grinding out decrees with an almost
equal regularity.
During the month which was brought
to a close yesterday, a total of 79
divorce decrees were granted in Mult
nomah County. Of this number 75
went uncontested while In the other
four, decrees were awarded after hear
ings. During the same month, there were
a total of 80 new divorce suits started,
including those filed yesterday. Al
though some of the decrees which
were granted during the latter part
of the month were in cases which were
filed during the fore part of the month,
it was stated that there were well
over 100 different divorce actions
either filed or granted during the
month.
So much for the record-breaking
divorce mill.
Comes now "Cupid" Tadwell, of the
marriage license bureau, and asks for
the wreath of laurel for maintaining
high pace in making young folks
happy during June. During the month
a total of 299 marriage licenses were
issued, an average of nearly ten
lcen8es for every day of the month.
This was 91 more licenses than were
issued during June of last year and is
alsodeclared to be a local record.

sufficient criterion of Miss Woodcock's
piano abilities to say that she played
the notes from memory and without
the aid of a piano score with brilliancy.
She shone with unexpected fineness

playing a nocturne, waltz and ballade

famous pianists, and they did not suf-

on of hands for the slit ot the Italy
(ihoat (Articles of Faith 3 and 4.
"Men and brethren, what shall we
do?" Such was the eager, anguished,
almost despairing cry of the humbled
multitude who at the first Pentecost
following the crucifixion of Christ
were brought to a realisation of their
awful guilt through the Inspired ut
terances of Peter, the presiding apos
tle. What shall we do? What can we
do? Is hope yet open to us? This is
the wail of contritely penitent souls,
everywhere, always. When convicted
ot sin at the bar of his own con
science through genuine repentance,
wheu at last able to see himself In all
the repulsive pollution of his trans
gression, the self-accusing sinner
yearns wtth fervid purpose to make
all possible reparation and is sealoua
to learn and obey the conditions of
forgiveness, if such there be.
To every soul thus brought Into the
depths through the benign though af
flicting influences of repentance, to
all who thus appeal for mercy and
rescue, the answer is direct and
prompt: "Repent, and be bnpttaed.
evrrj one of yon In the nnme of Jcaaa
ChrlMt for the remission of sins, snd
ye shall receive the sift of the Holy
Ghost" (see Acts 11:37-39).
The promise of remission is as wide
as the domain of sin; for. excepting
those (and be it said to our comfort
that they are few) who sink so far
into the quagmire of iniquity as to
be numbered among the "sons of per
dition," to whom effective repentance
la impossible, all may be saved by
compliance with the requirements set
forth by the Author of the plan of
salvation. The need of forgiveness is
likewise universal; "for there is not
Just man upon earth, that doeth
good and slnneth not" (Eccles. vii:
20); and "If we say that we have no
sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth
is not in us" (I John 1:8).
Is it not reasonable and wholly in
keeping with the ordinary ways of
men in their mutual dealings, that
some substantial evidence shall be de
manded to attest the genuineness of
the repentance we voice in words? Is
it enough that the debtor shall mere
ly acknowledge his obligation and ex
press regret that he has not hereto
fore been able to meet it? He must
do something more, or he remains for
ever in debL The seal by which re
pentance Is validated is Baptism la
water for the remission of nlnsi for
by this Is the blood of Jesus Christ
made effective to cleanse from sin
(see I John 1:7).
The voice in the wilderness herald
ing the advent of the Lord, the proc
lamation that aroused Jerusalem and
reverberated throughout Judea and
Galilee was "the baptlxra of repent
ance for the remission of sins9 (Mark
1:4; Luke fli:3). The cleansing ordi
nance was not to be administered in
discriminately, however; it was re
served for those who had brought
forth "fruits meet for repentance,"
those whose profession of penitence
was a true index to their contrite
state.
Saul of Tarsus, when rebuked for
his Ill-directed seal In persecuting the
Lord's own, exclaimed in agony. "What
shall I do. Lord?" By the mouth of
devout Ananias came the answer:
"Arise and be baptised and wash
swsy thy sins' (see Acts xxil). And
Saul, thereafter known as Paul, a
preacher of righteousness and an apos
tle of the Lord Jesus Christ, taught
the saving doctrine that by baptism in
water comes regeneration from sin.
Pastors and prophets who minis
tered to the ancient fold of Christ on
the American Continent led the people
In the same path, that of repentance
and Daptism by water, the only way
by which remission of sins could then
or can ever be secured. Head for
yourselves in the Book of Mormon,
which is verily the scripture of the
Western Continent: "For the crate by
which ye should enter Is repentnnco
and baptism by waters and then Com
eth a remission of your alns by fire
nnd by the Holy Ghost" (II Kephi
xxxi:17).
"Shew unto your God that ye nre
willing; to repent of your sins, nnd
enter Into n covennnt with him to
keep his commandments, nnd witness
It unto him this day by sjoinn; Into the
inters of baptism" (Alma vii:)5).
Hear the words of the Lord Jesus
Christ through the prophet Mormon:
"Turn, nil ye Gentiles, from your
wicked wuys nnd repent of your evil
doings, of your lyings nnd deeelvlnaa
nnd of your whoredoms nnd of your
secret nbomlnntions, snd your idols
tries, nnd of your murders, nnd your
priestcrafts, nnd your envylngs, and
your strifes, nnd from nil your wick
edness nnd nbomlnntions, nnd eome
unto me sad be baptised in my nnme.
thnt ye msy receive n remission of
your sins nnd be filled with the Holy
Ghost, that ye mny be numbered with
my people, who are of the house of
Israel" (III NephI xxx:2). And further:
"The first fruits of repentance la
bnptisms nnd bnptlsm comet h by fstth
unto the fulfllllnu the commandments,
nnd the fulfilling; the commandments
brlnaeth remission of sins" (Moroni
vili:25).
To his svmmissloned servants In the
current age. the bearers of the holy
priesthood again restored to earth, the
Lord has given commandment that
they proclaim anew to the world the
same unchangeable truth, that only
through baptism is remission of sins
promised. Thus we read:
"Dot thou hslt deelnre repentance
and faltb on the Savior nnd remission
of sins by baptism and by fire, yea,
even tho Holy Ghost" (Doctrine and
Covenants xix:31).
Such is the immutable law of God
throughout the ages. There Is no
other way provided on earth or in
heaven by which th merits of the
atonement of 'Jesus Christ may bring
salvation to mankind.
