Ono juror, and one alone, has saved Binger Hermann from conviction on the charge of con spiracy to dofraud his country out of its public lands. That one juror withstood the pleas of his fellow talesmen from Friday forenoon at 11 o'clock until this morn ing at 9. His position proved beyond the power of argument to shako, and the twelve men came beforo Judgo Wolverton this morning with tho re port that they could not reach a ver dict Judgo Wolverton discharged the jury from further duty, and tho first trial of Binger Hermann was closed, after five weeks of testimony and ar gument. When furthor instruction was asked of the judge Saturday, fear began to be felt of a hung jury. The hours that passed without a verdict Sunday brought conviction that the jury would be unable to agree. This morning the conclusion was confirmed by the appearance of the jury in the courtroom, when its fore man announced that an agreement was impossible, and asked that the 12 men be discharged from furthor attendance upon the court. Judge Wolverton was loth to have the case terminated without a verdict. But the positive assurance of the men that agreement could not be reached. left no alternative. In view of the long time spent in deliberation, and the positive assertion of the jurors that they could not agree, the judge found it useless to confine the men longer, and discharged them from the case. Disagreement had been feared, but few who had been "speculating on the issue had thought the margin would be so narrow as one. Mr. Heney and his assistants were absolutely confident Jof a conviction. Mr. Hermann, on the other side, expressed his faith in ac quittal, and did not seem to worry over the delay in reaching an agreement. When "the report of disagreement was made, the aged defendant showed more Bigns of concern than at earlier stages of the case, and when it was ru mored through the corridors that only one man stood out, friends of Mr. Her mann realized the danger to which he had been subjected, and gave voice to their concern. George Selkirk is the one man who hung the jury. WEST WARNS WALL STREET. Lincoln Day Speech With Approval. Meets Wills involving many millions have been broken in the Snell and Warner cases in the Illinois Supreme court Taft says he is glad of criticisms of his first year's work, believing the next three years will be more pleasant as a result. Owing to trouble between the hoist ing engineers and Western Federation of Miners, nine thousand men are on strike in Butte, Montana. The sudden return of Francis J. Heney to San Francisco after the Her mann trial is taken to mean that he will enter politics in California. The Navy department has abandon ed the search for the missing naval tug Nina and her crew of 32 men, and practically given up hope for the vessel. Fire destroyed the government building of the 1905 exposition at Port land. It is believed to have been set on fire by tramps. The building cost $235,482. There was no insurance. Commissioner general of immigra tion urges stricter enforcement of the immigration laws. Roosevelt will Bpend three or four days in Paris on his return trip, and will be entertained by President Fal lieres. Mrs. Speckels, widow of the late Claus Speckels, is dead, and her hus band's will was declared invalid on the same day. Senator Conger, in the New York bribe inquiry, admits that big bridge company maintained a big corruption fund for three years. A tube on the torpedo boat destroyer Hopkins exploded at San Diego, killing one man and badly injuring seven. Chicago, Feb. 15. That the country has been reassured by President Taft in his Lincoln-day speech in New York that the administration has no inten tion of turning the business world topsy-turvy, and that the law-abiding corporations have nothing to fear, are keynotes sounded today in the editorial comment of the country on the speech. Western editors admonish Wall street that it is time to put its bogeys away and get down to business on a basis of belief that legitimate business is safe under the Taft administration. The sentiment seems to be that the president fell short of convincing the people that the tariff law is to be trusted for results and that in spite of the New York speech, will go on as before. The Democratic press expresses the view that Mr. Taft is solicitous of the integrity of his party and that there is no less cause for worry now than there was before. He is credited with a Bin cere deBire to avert anything that would upset the business equilibrium, while at the same time adhering stead fastly to his declared policy of making the corporations subservient to the public welfare, and not paramount. With the exception of a few bank ers, who do not relish the idea of the establishment of a postal savings bank system, and some manufacturers who are opposed to the new law relating to the regulation of corporations, the men of affairs in Chicago generally indorse the president's speech and policies. Coquille Land Owners Cooporato Reclaim Marshos. Coquille Fivo thousand acres of rich Coquillo valley land is being re claimed by drainage systems through the co-operative efforts of farmers owning tho land. This work has now been under way for over 12 months, though the actual work has been going on for a far less period of time. At the present four reclamation projects are under way. The first and oldest is the Beaver Slough drainage project. The first move in this plan for tho reclamation of the bottom land of tho Coquille val ley was begun, by petition, over five years ago. However, the first petition was killed by the opposition of cold- footed property owners in the proposed district. After a district was formed which cut off the greater portion of theso dissenterB and the petition car ried and tho project was launched. The Beaver Slough drainago district includes 1740 acres ' of bottom land, which will be drnicnd, and the cost of the complete project will bo about $17,000. Tho complete project will in clude over eight miles of drainage canals, tho main canal being 50 feet wide and the lateral canals over 25 feet in width. In connection with tho main canals lateral ditches will be dug through the land, and these will be extended through their private holdings by the individuals so far as they Bee fit. At the point whre the main canals flow into the river tide gateB will be installed which will allow tho water to drain from the land freely, but will pre vent the tides from overflowing over the lowlands, as has formerly been the case. These lateral canals are about 30 feet in width and extend from the main canal to the foothills east. The second of the projects is the Fat Elk drainage district, which is located on the south side of the river and which extends two or three miles above the city. It will entail the dredging for about miles of canals and several miles of lateral ditches. This project embraces 2,273 acres of bottom land and will make of the section of the river directly across from this city a veritable paradise in the way of dairy land. About four miles of canals are complete and it is thought that without further delay the work Will not occupy more than two months longer. The main canal follows the channel of what is supposed to have been the old river and will be fitted with the usual tide gates. Including the last assessment, this project has cost $28,423, and the end is not yet The third, the Harlocker project, is practically a private plan of increasing the value and productiveness of a pro gressive farmer's land. It was started by L. Harlocker, of this city, for the purpose of draining his farm about five miles below town. He was joined by several neighbors, who have agreed to stand a portion of the expense. This project embraces 651 acres of land and has cost $2,000. The cost of digging lateral ditches from the main canal through the land will perhaps ag gregate $1,000 more, the entire system cost about $3,000. There will be about one mile of lateral ditches when the project is complete. WOOL GROWERS OBJECT. Chartros aro Made Acalnst K. H O'Brien of Wallowa Resorvo. Baker City Troublo botwoon tho sheepmen of this section and tho fores try officials lias reached an acuto stago and there is every probability that 'the grievance of tho Baker-Union Counties Woolirrowers association wiM bo ap pealed to tho officials at Washington. A mootine was hold in this city between K. H. O'Brien, of tho Wnl Iowa reservo, and District Foreste Chapman, and tho woolgrowers of thir section. The erowers allego that lass year tho officials agreed to allow on tho Wnllowa reservo 125,000 Bhoep from Wallowa county and 150,000 from Baker and Union counties, but only 65,000 sheep wore admitted from Walla Walla and 69,000 from Baker and Union counties. Tho sheepmen now ask that the original limit be es tablished again and tho larger number of sheep admitted. Serious charges aro made Bgainst K. II. O'Brien, of tho Wallowa resorvo, the sheepmen believing nnd intimating that Mr. O Brum's business interests, his relationship commercially, .Bocially and financially are of such a nuturo that ho is unduly influenced in matters pertaining to the range. The sheep men demanded of Mr. Chapman that they have a hearing on these allega tions and that he give a decision. All complaints were reduced to writing and Mr. Chapman took tho case under ad visement. It in generally bolieved that the meeting is merely the founda tion for nn appeal by tho sheepmen to Washington. Strike Pure Water at Well. Vale Newbill & Coleman, who havo been sinking a test well ono half mile Bouthwest of the town, struck an un limited flow of pure water. A sample has been Bent to Portland for analysiB. The well was sunk on the Koad com pany's land, and the mayor has written to that company asking for a donation of the land where the woll is situated, and for a plat of land on tho Vale hill for a reservoir, and also for a park site to be donated to the city.

Portland One of the largest trans actions on record in eastern Oregon ranch lands was consummated last week when the immense Crook county holdings of the Baldwin Sheep and Land company was sold to a syndicate of Portlland capitalists for a figure said to be in the neighborhood of $450,000. The Baldwin company's holdings compris.e 26,600 acres located on Hay creek and Trout creek, and occupying the best lands in the district south of Shaniko and east of Madras. The pur chase includes the improvements on the place, including a large general storo and bank, tho value of which is con servatively estimated at $100,000. A large portion of the Baldwin ranch comprises some of the finest alfalfa land in Eastern Oregon to the extent of several thousand acres. It is the intention of the new owners of the property to develop all of the alfalfa lands by conserving the waters in Hay creek and Trout creek for irrigation purposes. Practically all of the wa ter in both those streams for their entire length is controlled by the Bald win ranch. The Deschutes line of the Harriman system will run through the Baldwin property and arrange ments have already been made for es tablishing one or more shipping points on the company's land.

"Wo are tired of the anti-Japanesism of American pol iticians," declares the Asahi today in an editorial which is typical of tho general comment upon the Hayes bill in the American congress.
