Governor Chamberlain's Mes
. sage Explains the Evil of the
C Conditions That.Existed.
, , Ex-Govornor 'T. T.' Oeer takea excep
tion to statements recently published In
The. Journal relative to General Udells
Herations In state -Indemnity ' Jand
while U B. Oeer eras elate una agent.
In a, .letter published yesterday. Gov
ernor Geer sets forth his views, and
v defends his cousin. U B. Oeer. from the
charges that have been' made against
him. , . . - "
--The main contention made by Gover
nor Oeer is that the state lost nothing
through the alleged irregularities ,n th
state land agent's office. Tet the un
disputed facta - seem to show that ;lf
8 late Land Agent I B. oeer Dad per
' formed properly the duties Imposed
upon him by law the demand for base
"from purchasers of school lands could
have been satisfied In large part by
him. Instead of turning such appli
cants over to General Odell. 'The latter
charged from 71 cents to IMS an acre
for base, and his profits are said to
have been nearly or quite 1109.000. -
Odell merely acted as a broker in
the transactions snd the fee which he
. charged covered his ' services la dla-
cover Ins" the base. The records of' the
tat land agent's office- should have
been sufficiently completers? ae- to
make such servlcVn-ialtogetfei unnecessary.-
But. since purchasers.. were, will-
Ing to pay Odell his fee of from 75
.cents to l.7 an acre In addition te the
$2.60 which they were obliged to pay
rtbe state. It is apparent that by dis
pensing with . Odell's services and
slightly raising the price of base, the
state could have realised many thou
sands :of dollars mqre than it received.
- ' State Ooald Save Bad Fart.
la other words. If the state land
, agent's office had been so conducted as
to render It unnecessary for applicants
for base to go to Odell,' soma pant of
the money which . he received -'might
readily have been diverted to the state
Jy slightly Increasing the price an acre,
andJ)iat without imposing any greater
'expense upon the purchasera : ., ' '
. 'In this sense, therefore.' it Is true
)that the state1 was the loser, by these
transactions. But the loss of such pos
sible profits .was but. one pt the minor,
evil results of these Indemnity , land
transactions.' Many persorjs-who have
acquired lands through titles derived
originally from the state have suffered
serious pecuniary loss, by reason Of the
extraordinary chaos that existed In the
state -land -agent's - offlce The same
lands were In numerous cases sold twice
bv the state to different nartlea. In
deed, alleged mineral lands were some-
' times used twice for Indemnity selec
lions, so. that in such cases the state
had practically sold the land three times
' to as many different purchasers.
In commenting updn' these transae-
. t ions. .Governor Chamberlain said in hla
. last biennial message to the legislature:
"Operations in mineral base have been
. disastrous to tnecredit of .the state,
for those who have held certificates of
sale or deeds to Indemnity lands based
.thereon have assigned, such certificates
or conveyed their titles to person all
over 'the country, who felt secure In
taking title to lands which seemed to
come directly from the state. It mat
ters not how much they may have paid
the grantees of the state for the land,
or the Individual who furnished the 'al
leged mineral base, they can only re
cover from the state the amount actu
ally received by it from the original ap
plicant., , , .,- i '
"It has frequently happened that the
grantee of the state is Irresponsible
financially, so that the purchaser, from
him has no recourse for the dlOerence
between the amount paid by him to such
'grantee and' the amount paid to the
State. Most of these purchasers who,
in addition to the price paid to the
state, paid from 7t cents to $1.60 an
acre to General Odell for Information as
to this ' alleged mineral base, claim
that they supposed they were dealing
entirely with the state officers, and feel
that the state ought to refund to them
not only the purchase price, but the
amount paid for this alleged Informa
tion. "In some Instances there Is merit In
this claim, and It ought never to have
been placed In the powar of any private
jpuiviuuai m occupy a position- wnere
the public would have the right to as
sume thst he was occupying an official
position m reference to the public lands
of the state."
(It la notorious that Odell's operations
- In Indemnity lands and hla relations to
' .state officials" gave rise to much scandal,
'and It has been 'freely Intimated that
the profits from those operations did not
enure' te himself alone. Upon this point
no real inquiry was made by either of
the legislative committees which Inves
tigated the state land agent's office.

Reformation ' May Be Won " by
- Decent People Talcing Part
s i in Politic aj Affairs.
.JL
Rev. William JS. Randall, pastor of the
Central Baptist cburclvreeterday morn'
ing preached a sermon In which he,
flwelt on these, propositions: . ' .-.
"Politics Is clean, but some politicians
and most political manipulations by ma
chines are harmful to the social body.
Tax dodgers are not good citlsena.
Owners of property should not ' rent
buildings for 'immoral purposes. Re
formation of existing conditions1 may be
achieved by decent people taking part In
the conduct of the political affairs of
tha. nation.
The past week. said the preacher.
"a "fkptaln of police said he visited the
north end of the city and there found
conditions worse than they were before
the recent raid of the sherlfr. But It
Is noticeable that that captain snd the
other policemen are not doing more than
wonder. They are not doing anything
to make - these conditions better, and
merely criticising an official who 'is
accomplishing''' what he can, and more
than even his warmest supporters
thought he could wben .they elected
him. . - ' ' - i
" "The public press is a moral police
force. If it do its duty. It makes a
contribution to the publio welfare that
Is not often appreciated. : -s,
SALOONS IN ST. JOHNS.
T. S. McTlokara aists Sara That
mn B Settled at SMUa.
Rev. F. E. MoVlckarsv pastbrTof the
United Evangelical church at Bt Johns,
yesterday evening raised an Issue that
will be Injected Into the municipal cam
paign of that town the. coming spring.
"A building has been erected, and a
man stands ready to put a saloon Into
operation In St. Johns," said he, " and
It In now before the people as an issue."
"The Spring Election Will Determine
the Future of St. Johns," was the. sub
ject of Mr. McVlckar's seTOMaaqd he
had as auditors members of the' city
council and manycltlaens In all walks
of life. An effort baa been made to
induce ' the anti-saloon element to keep
the saloon Issue out ofT-the coming cam
paign, but this preacher refuseU to keep
silent, and presented the 'matter ' last
night In a manner to compel atten
tion. r '. '
8t..Johna Is clean and free from po
litical corruption," said he, "and let us
keep It so.- They- tell us we must have
saloons in order to raise sufficient funds
to keep thr city .running. That, is an
economic fallacy that iat kept In circula
tion by the organisation of liquor deal
era. . As saloons Increase, expenses In
crease, and. Indeed, the expenditures In
crease more rapidly than the Income
wham aaloona are maintained :
"'St.-Johns la beautiful and attractive
to the home builder. People who want
homes do not want saloons. The two
are not compatible, and msny who sup
port saloons In a business district of a
city oppose them In a community where
are the homes of the people, and where
children must be reared. Let u keep
our city as It la and not turn It over
to the spoilers , of our political purity."
TRUE TO IDEALS.
Or J. Waitoomk Brongher Vrgeapoa-
rregatioa . to Sold That TToomght.
Rev, Ir. J. Whltcomb Brougher, pas
tor of the First, Baptist church, again
answered bis critics last night, and
maintained that hla methoda were right.
and that It was the doty of the preacher
to get results, and get them speedily.
'The apostle Paul did not worry over
what others thought "of him and the
manner In which he ministered, said
Dr. Brougher. "He cared only what
God thought, and did exactly what he
believed to be the divine will. A per
son must be conscious of his own Integ
rity. If he Is to battle successfully
against the evils of the world, and this
spplles especially to the religious
teacher. lie must be humble, of course,
as to 'God's judgments, but te, criti
cisms of persons who view matters from
a narrow view, be must pay no heed."
Dr. Brougher haa been receiving let-
tera In answer to his Invitation to any.
one to express his opinion of the White
Temple pastor and the manner In which
he has been conducting the parish af
fairs In the past year. These letters,
he declared, were written by several
claaaes enemies ' of the - -. church.
'cranks." those of jeajous spirit wh'o
cannot see another succeed without ad'
versely criticising him, and stilt others
from persons honestly desirous of see
ing the church advance along the lines
of modern ' thought and accomplishing
the ends it wss designed for.
"Let us be sure we are right and then
go ahead; let us seek only the approval
of God. and. when we finally stand in
the full light of eternity, and all the
secrets of life sre revealed. It will be
seen that we are true to our highest
Ideals,", was his final thought.

Thousands of Dollars to Be

Come to Portland. ' v; '
Alfred Dariowt who la conducting the
Union Pacific' 'campaign of exploita
tion for the Lewis, and -Clark fair, has
returnedUto Omaha after a visit of sev
eral days in Portland. Mr. Darlow
spent much of hlattme'here in confer
ence with the exposition officials. ex
changing Ideas and providing -himself
with new material for literature and
er advertising .features that will
bearttie stamp of the Overland route
shield. 1
cannot say. exactly haw much the
company-will expend for advertising the
big snow," said Mr. Darlow, "but the
sum. will run 'way up Into tha thou
sands.' - It will be .the most vigorous
campaign we have ever conducted for
an exposition; for the' reason that the
farming Interests will be Invaded with
advertising by which ' we hope to get
thousands of home-seekers - and - good
citlsens to come out here and settle. At
the Chicago, Buffalo and St Lou la ex
positions there' was. of course, no pio
neering to be thought of. The rail
roads advertised those fairs simply for
the round-trip haul of the people, while
In this Instance It is to our advantage.
and we are going to try every honest
method, to get people out here who will
be struck . by. the advantages of. the
northwest and remain here.
"The Union Pacific haa already, mads
thousands of contracts for newspaper
advertising and In all the display ad'
vertlsing appearing from now. until
after the fair, the Lewis and Clark fair
will be conapicuous. - Then we have a
system of reading notices and descrip
tive Items, all mentioning the centen
nisi celebration. The leading magaslnes
of the country are carrying advertise
ments ranging from quarter pages to
full pages, and not less than half of
this space Is devoted exclusively to the
exposition. The weeklies and class
publications, especially the - farm peri
odicals, are all taken care of. Besides,
we have our own extensive literature
Including the general folders and leaf
lets numbering not less than tOO.000.
One of these Is sent to each and every
inquirer as to rates or localities, no
matter what part of the United States
he is living in or msy wish to go to.
"It should not be forgotten that the
Union Paclfio has always been the
leader in the exploitation or national
enterprise of this kind. Its publications
on the1 world s fair at Chicago In Hl
were printed In seven or eight lan
guages. J Its Trans-Mlssisslppl exploi
