Otto Panier was drowned by the overturning-

O. C -O'Reilly Is- manager, and. pro

were the heirs, be refuse sd to say, but
aid he had a teles-ram. from them ask

" - The day of the inquest, when It was

filed with Judge Webster, setting forth
-that Panier had lelattvea In "the
state, and that Ik waa necessary for an

- This petition waa dated January t,
- but the certificate attached In which
Upton attested the document waa dated
Drterubar 11. six days before the proof
-of tha man's identity had been adduced.
These facts appear to indicate that
Upton and Rlddell prepared the papers
for filing and were compelled to wlth-
' hold them from the record until 'they
learned - the name of .the deceased.

- they had not the remotest Interest ex

Panier. The case was nonsuuea oy in

- alleging that the administrator baA ln
. atructed him to do so. - It now pends
In-the supreme court.
In tha entire record of the -estate In
the probate court and In the circuit
court there la no reference to any heirs,
and so far as the court haa been ad
vised there are no heirs.
Btrauhal made no appearance In the
circuit court at the trial of tha damage

' Jay Upton appeared today before the
district attorney and stated that he
- waa ready at any time to make a state
ment under oath, after which District

It waa la connection with the check

effect that R. W. Ruff In received the

tte In a manner that reflects credit on
Ms acta Mr. North saya:
-Jl chanced one day to be In tha office
of the eounty Judge.' when; Wendiand
was there for examination, or when he
had beea examined, and waa Informed
that a guardian waa to be appointed, and
waa asked if I would aerve.. I stated
that It waa a matter of Indifference t

I would consent, t wss named, and did
tha beet I eould with the business until
one day a Lutheran Min'ter'eame to

anted to be named aa guardian. J waa
very glad to be frsd from further re
sponsibility in -the premises nan aaxeq

The reeords In the case show that Mr.
North's statement la true la every par

Rlddell was the attorney in the case.
and it was through his Initiative snd
thtit of jay H. Upton that action was
taken at all. Without personal interest
In ths Insane man's sffalra they moved
for the appointment of m guardian, -and
it chanced that Mr. North came Into
the -office and he was naked to serve.
His acceptance of the trust was purely
from a" deslreT(T'eervo one who was
afflicted, "hut he made no move In the
matter and only responded to what hs
thought was an appeal to him as a ctu

and. object of tha movement -to estab
lish in Oregon tha greatest colonisation

try, acquire large, areas of land and
build model towns. - His .addreaa u
listened to with deep interest, and he
was requested to place his statements in
writing, to enable tha trustees to glye
them further study. , : -
Mr. Nash dwelt oh the point that
Oregon lands, aa well aa productive
properties of all aorta, are advancing in
value,, and will get much higher In the
next Ave or ten 'years. He cited , the
French-Qlenn ranch of 140,000 acrea in
Harney county aa an example of the
federation's development plane.. Thla
estate includea 'large area a Tf 'lands
adapted to the production of augat
beets, wheat, general agriculture, stock
raising and othsr purposes. . Ha said
a Marlon dredge Is at work In a large
swamp In tha midst of the tract, where
the richest al.uvlal aoll Is to ba drained
and placed under cultivation, and the
water concentrated In a atream for lr-
ilgatlon ef adjaasnl lands . Tha trsrt In
ba drained contains several thousand
acres, and will ba planted In augar beets
to supply a largs factory, that will be
feature of the iriduatrlal plan. . The
government crop bulletin,' describing
Ideal augar-beet land, has - practically
given a description of thla tract. Simi
lar land In . tha Orand Ronda valley.
planted In sugar beets, produced on
T.I0O acrea thla year enough to supply a
great augar-beet factory. In the Idaho
augar-beet district the same area of land
la to supply a great factory how being
built there to consume 000 tons of beets
dally. Thla Industry ss a federation
property will employ hundreds of -Peaahe-orftcsr" With" arresting and 'beating
pierltr healthful and moderately lucra
tive business, and may be a nucleus for
tha first of tha model towns to be built
Tha product la one that la in universal
demand.
Ha aald that less than one sixth of
the ranch lands will, b necessary to
tha beet augar Industry.- Tha remain
ing lands will support a largs popula
tion In 'extensive farming of email
traeta, and In etockralalug. A, large
acreage now seml-arld will be reclaimed
by irrigation from tha Blttsen river and
Its many tributaries
It la estimated that tha land for which
the federation paya 110 an acre will have
n market value of Its an acre when Irri
gated. Mr. Naah said there waa In the
federation plan no epeculator. no- stock
holder, nor - othsr intermediate with
whom to share profits Th worker and
tha bondholder would gst all there -waa
to be made out of It - With reference
to the rafety of tl'e, Investment he aald
from very 1100 paid In by the bond
holder Nl would be turned over to the
care of sitrust company as a sinking
fund. Invested at couipuuiid Interest 'sud
used to. pay principal of. bonds at ma
turity. In the aame manner ti per eeeit
would ' be placed- with another truat
company to guarantee interest on the
