PARTS OF INDICTMENT
: ' ABANDONED BY HENEY
Attorneys Engage In Lengthy Argu-
r mentt Over Every Point Brought
Forwtrd Cate la Still Being Bit
terly Contested by Defease. :
Before getting down to argument In
the Blue mountain land fraud case thla
morning tha government decided to
abandon tha portions of tha Indictment
referring to sohool lands aoquired prior
to March, ItOt, and to ask the jury, to
base a conviction of State Senator F. P.
Mays, WUlard N. Jones and George
Sorenson solely on their acta since that
data, This change was brought about
by tho Injection into the case of a ou ra
ti ve aot passed by the Oregon legisla
ture of 101 validating the title of all
school lsnda previously purchased. The
defense ; Insisted that this act - swept
aside the contention that tha title to the
10,00 acres of school land aoquired by
Senator Maya, Jonea and H. A. Smith In
100 waa not good, and Speolal Assist
ant Attorney-General Francis J. Honey
came to the conclusion that ha bad bet
ter rely on the charge of fraud In re
gard to the l,000 aorea of school land
aoquired by Maya, Jonea and Sorenson
after the passage of that aot
- - Jt Ji1VufJ.4ha4:.p'4
question Inoluded In Ite membership F,
P. Maya, H. A. Smith and J. N. William
son. Prosecutor Heney was of opin
ion that the measure waa cunningly
framed In order toglve a good, title to
lanaa - fraudulently aoquired.
v '" , Argumsmta Wei Xrfntg.
Argument over this curative act took
up all tho time vf last night' eeealoa
and waa resumed this morning as aooa
aa tha federal court convened. Judge
Hunt declared that ha waa loath to be
lieve that tha lawmakers of the etate
deliberately eouerht . to nnhold . a
fraud, and said that If there were noth
ing else In, the Indictment he - would
rule against such question and gladly
let an appellate court pass upon It ' He
asked whether the government's ooun-
1 desired any restrictions of tho .evi
dence, and In reply Prosecutor Heney
announoed tha abandonment already
mentioned, asking that ths evidence con
cerning the 10,000 aorea be considered
solely aa - showing design, eystem.
knowledgs and intent on the part o
tho defendants, " . , " . , '.- .
Further, ' the government . announoed
that It abandoned the portion of tho In
dictment that, Inoluded In the conspiracy
-timber - landa thereafter to bo ao
quired." -Thla, tt was explained, waa
done because the evidence la regard to
theae land waa left out In - order to
aav time. Thla referred to the Wil
liamson holding that figured In the trial
that resulted In tha conviction of Con
jrreaatnon Williameon, ...
- - Again Aaka fog AoqsittaX s
Attorney W. D. Fenton, repreeentlng
Maya, asked for the third time that the
jury be Inatructed to acquit beoauae of
variance between the indictment and
tha proof, and for the ird time Judge
Hunt overruled the motion.
At the requeat of the defense. Judge
Hunt informed the jury that they could
not find a verdict based on the 10,009
acres purchased by the defendants prior
to February f ,-1 tx.
Attorney S. B. Huston wanted some
thing aaid about the good faith of the
purchasere. Thla caused more argu
ment during which Prosecutor Heney,
apeaklng of tha landa atlll Included la
the charge of conaplracy, remarked to
the defense: Ton hoped to get the paa-
aaae of . another .act validating these
frauds.". ' . -.
Judge Hunt promised to Instruot the
Jury as to ths law governing the ques
tion of good faith and this cleared the
way for the first plea to the Jury.
