euburban reii'deiioe ,dltrlOt In Port

In thla district in tba paat. two or three

Ii . A chemical and a truck etatiun are
located at Union and Holladay avenues,
but by tba time they, could reach aa Iry

ter proposition and the chemical' would
be useless. Residents of Irvlngton and
Holladay additions are much concerned
orer their unprotected condition when
attacked by tbe flra fiend. It is un
derstood that -the water board has con
tracted for. 100 fire hydrants, that are
being delivered now, and it la aald that
some effort will be made" to have 'a
number of these hydrants, Installed. In
the Irving ton district. -'
The city is building V new" engine
house at East Twenty-eighth and East
Davis atreets and will soon have e fire
engine there, but It will be of little

to East Twelfth street, a mile west, be
fore being able to cross the gulch. .The
proposition to bridge fiullivan'e gulch
at East Twenty-eighth street has bean
discussed by one of the Improvement
associations of that district.
Battalion Fire Chief 10X2. Holden, In
charge, of - the aaat side, - while - dis
cussing the lack of fire fighting
faculties at Irvtngton and Holladay ad
ditions yesterday afternoon, said:
"Our facilities for overcoming a fire In
tha'' district . named ere very
There "arebut H" fire' "hydrants- In "an
that territory, which la aa populous and
a Urge ae many falr-slaed cities. The
apparatus of ther department - that ia
located on the east aide is ae far away
from this particular aeetlon aa to be
practically useless for fighting a fire
there. Of course a growing city like
Portland can evot keep pace with the
demand for fire protection, but the time
ie at hand when something more must
be done for the northeastern portion of
I the city. .There la iiardly anysectlon
of Irvtngton or Holladay addition where
we could get more than one line of
hore to a fire and In more than halt
this- territory - we-oould -do bat little
more et a fire than watch it burn.'
' Chief Campbell agreed with Holden
In hie etatementa and added that the
most important thing to be done Just
now - Ie to bridge Sullivan's guloh at
Eaat Twenty-eigntn street, wmcn would
bring a large part of Irvtngton tinder
the protection of the engine to be located
on Beat Twenty-eighth street. .

long series of land fraud proaecutiona.
The flrat of the pending cases is eet for
trial tomorrow morning, at whlqh time
Charles Nlckell, Henry W. Miller. Frank
B. Kin cart, and Martin O. Hose are ex
pected to appear before District Judge
Muni wita a smau army ef lawyers pre
pared for a hard fight ;i
Of the quartet about to go, to trUl
Nlckell .1 the most prominent He-waa
formerly a United States commissioner.
He is a newspaper editor, and publishes
two papera. the Southern Oregonlaa at
Medford and the Tlmee of Jacksonville.
Hoge Is an attorney, and MUler and
Kincart are known to the government
aa industrious timber cruiser. :. ,
Charge la Conspiracy. . 'c-S :
The charge made in the indictment
which was returned January 1 HOC. ia
conspiracy In connection -with the filing
of applications under the timber and
stone act for lande In eouthern Oregon,
the exact location being township 40
south, range .west-- ; .T-
Tlwih Interesting testimony la ex
pected. According to the information
in tha hands of the government Nickel
and Hoge did the Inside work, while Kin
cart and Miliar kept cruising around un
til they had Induced a hundred persons
to make applications for land. For
every . one - of theee appllcattona - the
evuleere- got $ St -for Information fur
nished the victim, while Nlckell pulled
down 17.60 for publishing each notice
of location.-. To help the game along,
Nlckell occasionally printed alluring ar
ticles in hla newspapers. Theee articles
told ef great - opportunities to obtain
land. - Once a reader'a Interest was
aroused the cruisers took him in tow.
- Beyer Missed a Trlok.
It ie aald that Miller and Kincart
never missed a trick. Milliners, dress
makers, farmers, laborers, wpodohoppere
end men of a doaen other ealllnga are
Included In their list . It ia even al
leged, that .they onoe invaded a eamp
meetlng, and after the services were
over talked land te the worshipers until
half of them agreed to put up tit each
for information aa to where they eould
take up a fine timber claim. The under-,
standing waa that some mysterious par
son would -In a short time send out
agenta and buy out the elaimanta, giving
them a price that would net them
handsome , return for their ' trouble.
Trouble came before the expected trans
fers, and now the transactions , are to

associates are to connected with
conspiracy te ' defraud the government
