OREGON. OREGON NEWS IN BRIEF Items of Interest Regarding Matters . in Various Parts of the State. Portland, June 24. That would be settlers coming to Oregon have, in many instances, been victimized by unscrupulous land speculators and that the state as a whole has been injured by their operations, is a statement made at the annual con vention of Oregon bankers recently held at Corvallis, and the attending delegates expressed a determination to co-operate with the commercial bodies throughout the state in an ef fort to put greedy real estate men out of business. The plan does not contemplate the entire elimination of land-selling agencies, but does pro pose to .annihilate the sharks who have been speculating in good Ore gon soil, taking it out of production and holding it for an unreasonable increase in price. It was decided to form an appraisement committee in each community to pass on the prices of lands, the committee to consist of two members of the local commercial body and one banker, and intending purchasers will be advised to pur chase no real estate from any dealer until the value of same has been passed upon by the appraisers and the price asked decided to be a reas onable one. It was stated as a fact that much of the agricultural land in Oregon is held at too high a figure. There is doubtless plenty of good land which can be obtained at a fair price, but the newcomer, usually un familiar with local values and con ditions, seldom hears of that land. The committee will see that he gets a square deal. Oregon is likely to become the cen ter of a great fishing industry with in the near future if the investiga tions of the government confirm the report of extensive halibut banks off the coast of Lincoln county. A large number of launches are now being fitted out at Newport, on Yaquina bay, for the purpose of exploiting these recently discovered banks, and those which hafe already started op erations are returning to port with capacity loads Of splendid fish. The extent of the banks is stated to be sufficient to supply the Pacific north west with fish for years to come. .

Colonel "Bill" Harina reports this from the ringside: Yale, in a tight ball game this spring, was about to get trimmed. The outlook was indigo. Defeat seemed inevitable, when suddenly, out of the mass, Right Fielder Pum pelly rammed a double over short and saved the day. As the bat cracked and the win ning run counted, a Princeton stu dent toppled in a heap, and this lone wall sobbed from his pallid lips across the field: , "That guy again!

The far-famed Professor Mucken fus came to grief in his attempted aerial flight and when over Main street dropped to the pavement with a "dull sickening thud," straw intes tines sticking out of his nose and ears. The stunt caused considerable curiosity and much mirth. The drill hall of the new armory was closed up Saturday night and none of the profane were permitted to enter its sacred precincts Satur day, while a bevy of Shriners worked like bees all day getting it ready for the qeremonial sessions. In the smaller rooms Clarence E. Land and Hum Pracht were busily engaged most of the day preparing to feed the famishing travelers during' the evening. Judging from the remarks of Shrinersmpon leaving thj hall it was a sight to attract especial atten tion even from those accustomed to the splendors of the orient. As to what transpired behind the guarded doors of the armory in the dark and mystic hours of the night Saturday night the profane sons of the desert can only guess. However, so far as heard from there has been no work for the undertaker resulting from the walk over hot . sands, though some of the candidates wore a Weary Willie expression Sunday. The following is a list of those ini tiated into the mysteries of Shrine- j dom at the meeting: Charles D. Burgan, Talent; F. Roy Davis, Ashland; Dr. Julian P. John son, Ashland; Robert Lee Collins, Roseburg; James, Walter Porter, Ashland; Christian C. Weisenburger, Ashland; Martin W. Waggoner, Med ford; John C. Mann, Medford; Frank Hanson, Medford; O. F. Carson, Ash land; Willard Veghte, Ashland; Hal bert Deuel, Medford. Three mem bers were also added to Hillah Tem ple, Dr. E. H. Porter, Medford; Charles E. Gates, Medford, and John O. Isaacson, Central Point, by affilia tion. Ladies Entertain Royally. A Tidings representative dropped into the Masonic Temple this morn ing and remarked to "Alex" that it looked as if there had been some thing doing there also. He replied: "The women were crazier than the men. You ought to give their initia tion a bigger writeup than that of the Shriners; they initiated more." This only confirmed the suspicions arousel by the noise of gales of mer riment which floated out through the closed doors of the Masonic Temple and permeated the Commercial Club rooms where the Producers' Develop ment League was holding its meet ing. There were about 150 ladies pres ent Saturday evening at the reception given the ladies of visiting Shrin ers. A large class was "initiated" into their pseudo organization. Just what the stunts were which were pulled off is not being divulged to mere man nor to the ladies outside the favored circle, but the fame of Buster Brown and Tige and of the "Pajama Patrol" has leaked out. These are said to have called forth the merriment which became audi ble outside the hall. There was card playing during the evening, and a banquet which the ladtes declare made the Shriners' feed look like a hoboes' lunch. Every visiting lady declared that her hus band would find it impossible to leave her at home in the future when he came to Ashland to attend a ceremonial of Hillah Temple. The Shipbuilder's Prophecy. Victoria Times:' The astonishing prediction of the British shipbuilder wno lorecasts tnat in a iew years the leviathans of the deep will be half a mile long and will register 200,000 tons is not so shattering to the imagination in this age of won ders as it might have been in a past era. The breathless story of scien tific achievement during the last tew years is replete with marvels that in an earlier day would have been wild er than the wildest dreams ever con ceived. It Is still possible to see treading, as it were, the well-defined paths of the Atlantic old vessels of 8,000 tons which in their day were the largest afloat; while again on the 24th day of the present month a titan registering 50,000 tons the Imperator will make her maiden Voyage across thcherring pond. It Is ever so. The Brobdignagians of today are the Liliputians of tomor row, and there is no logical reason why in a few years' time this same Imperator which now dazzles the senses with its size and magnificence should not he . utterly eclipsed by even more gigantic successors.
