iiigbuo k. fearing that their entries
would not be legal or would not be re

receivers of tin- land ottlces have been
Instructed to hold up all tlnal proofs on
such entries until the claimant and wit

b monade and popcorn were offered for
sale until llune lor the program. The
first number was a piano duet by Miss
Veda WIlliHms And Miss Kthel Cheney.
They were compelled to i-e.!pondv to a
strong encore. i A. Miller Was also
called back, after having sung a vocal
solo. Miss Doty recited in a pleasing
nmnner. The Veiing l.udles' quartet had
to sing two pieces before ihe audience

his listeners with a recitation. Frank

of his tine voice after he had sunfc- bis
first epcie. He salo was compelled to
sing a second song The Mucenbee
Quartet sang two pieces in their usual
taking way, but did not understand that
they were to sing another piece later on.
They were soon persuaded to nnder
one more song by an encore from the

COMPLICATIONS
OVER NEW CODE
Act Passed by Legislature Found
to Have Been Omitted.
PAT. KM, Dec. 13. A little complication
has aleady arisen regarding the new code,
.lust issued from the press and distributed
to the officers of the state. It has been
found that an act passed by the legisla
tive Assembly of 1MI9 (H. P.. -HHI, entitled
"An net to amend an net entitled 'An act
to amend Section :UI7 of the laws of Ore
gon, compiled and annotated by W. Lair
Hill.' and to repeal Section 3619 of the
laws of Oregon, as compiled and anno
tated by AV. Ilr Hill (Sess. Daws p.
Si), providing for the appointment of an
agent to select lands donated to the state
by the 1'nlled States, has been omitted
from the new compilation. The compilers,
believing the act In ipiestlon to have been
repealed at the same session of the leg
islature in Senate Hill Mo,..l2S (Sess. Law,
lvifj. p. 11, which became n law one day
later than did the law referred to above
and omitted by the compilers. The Sen
ate bill In question creates the office of
Iind Commissioner for the State of Ore
gon, appointing the Oncvrnor to attend to
the duties, and it was held, by Implication,
repealed the act creating the stale land
agent. The matter was referred to Attorney-General
D. .R. N. Blackburn for
his opinion as to whether the uct creating
the state lind nsent had been repealed
by the subsequent act creating .the office
of land 'cnmmtsj-loner for the State if
Oregon. General Wackburn has rendered
an opinion ' in which he holds that
the act was not repealed. The attorney-general
says:
"My opinion has always been that the
amended section was merged In and be
came a part of the amendatory act."
lie holds that neither the hmendatory
act.nor the. ct which emend It can be
repealed l y reference to the original stat

VIENNA, Dec. 13. Report has reached
this city of the loss of 3U0 vessels loaded
with grain which were anchored in the

total several millions of dollars. So far
as known there was not a death in the

The grain Jteet was moored in the

Ice broke up there was no escape for tho
ships and giant Ice pillars crashed down

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. 12, 1902
Believing that it is not the Intention
Fdltor The 'Oregon Dally Journal:
cf ThjP Journal to Injure any one or to
misrepresent a reader and mislead the
public", I beg to ask that this letter be
printed, that amends be made, in some
degree at least, for the false reports
made by your reporter (I hope inadver
tently) in your columns on the 10th inst.,
relative to suicide of Joseph Steinberg.
I am accused of yelling: "Where's the
books? Where's the books?" on my dis
covery of the suicide; this Is absolutely
untrue. The horror of the moment was
sv great that 1 never thought of looks,
nor coulil scarce any one have had un
der the circumstances, even though there
had been altercations betweeii uL as the,
arlVclFT' 'fn'"" geriei'Tit ' "'acc'uses""'ibit such
Vias not the case. Our :artnershlp was
n: nmfcaiile as cotili' well Be. I had the
ntghest regard for Mr. Sternberg, both
for hls; honesty and business capacity,
and he always professed the same re
p..rd for me. ? W e never quarreled, nor
ever Iwid any disputes on any but the
most trifling matters that neither he nor
1 ever thought Seriously of.
Your article leada to the conclusion
that our partnership business was bad;
that his worries and suicide were caused
by business troubles, as well as. troubles
with me. Nothing is more untrue. Our
business shows a healthy condition that
Is most fluttering. After all expenses are
paid our bookB show that the capital in
vested baa doubled; that the assets
above liabilities are twice the value of
the. money invested. Certainly no man
would commit suicide for business rea
sons when his money Invested is doubled
in ten months.
Since 1 always had the highest regard
for Mr. Steinberg's sterling honesty, I
could never have supposed him guilty of
petty thieving that your articles accuses
me of Warning him with. Yours truly,
I. NUDKLMAN.
