The recelvershiD was asked for in a bill of complaint filed by the American l rust company of Boston, with 'whom the railroad was mortgaged In July, 1905. The ooplainant avers that the defend ant company has been hopelessly In solvent for some time and that it has been unable to control its affairs or mwi current obligations, and says further that the mortgaged property la inauequaie as security ror the bonds. Owing to the facts which are set forth in detail, the bill of complaint asks that the property be sold at auction In Portland to the highest bidder at a time to be decided by all concerned and under the Jurisdiction and by decree of the federal court. Tho railroad extends from Hot Iake to La Grande to Cove by way of Union and from Union to Elgin. The real estate and property of the company was all asalgned In a deed of trust or mort gage. The crlginai trust deed or mortgage provided for the Issuance of bonds for tr.e rctlroad company to the-extent of $2,000,000. The first bond were Issued lit July, 15, at UOO.00O each, pavable 80 veers from that date and at interest of 6 per cent. The bonds were certified by the American Trust company and sue iix,w outstanding In that-amount 10 different Individuals and corporations as owners. One -of the agreements between the railroad .promoters and the representa tive .of the trust company entered into originally waa to the effect that in de fuult of the payment of Interest smi noually. "as per contract, and a wrlttsa demand made for the money within six month afterward, the property should bi -jKUi to tke highest bidder at mic tion for the benefit of the railroad bond ro.deis. The trust company In tha bill of coi'Hlalut says that the railroad has fajed to pay t,ne Interest due on the bonds: since January 1, 1907. The inter est was due the first of January ,-nd July 1 of each succeeding year.

Without SELECT JURY FOR KILLING For the second time sfnee the local juvenile dtourt waa , established a jury Is to decide whether a minor charged with crime-4l, delinquent. This will be In the case of Chas. Jackson Reld, the 12-year-old boy who shot and killed George ,F. De Mars with a revolver while De Mars was trespassing on Gov? eminent Island at the Lewis and Clark fair grounds- The selection of a jury to try the boy was begun this morning before Judge Gantenbeln. Three Jurors were accepted this morning.- This Is half the required number, aa a Jury In the Juvenile court consists of only six members. The men accepted are David J. Burness, H. D. Gates and A. J. Farmer. The attorneys for the defense were careful to Inquire of each talesman as to whether he hag a fam ily, evidently feeling that tbey will stand the best show before a jury of men who have children of their own. All three of the accepted Jurors have several children. Young Reld. who has been out on bonds ever since the affray that ended In the death of De Ma, sat alone In the courtroom behind hla attorneys and his father. He was well groonwd and viewed the scene with apparently no more concern than would have shown any boyish spectator. Tp and from the courtroom ha was .accompanied by a froup of relatives.

(Special Dtepatch to The Joarnil.) Pottsville, Pa.. Nov. X. That the op portunities for political advancement have not diminished is shown by the public career of Robert "E. Lee, of this town. Democratic candidate tfor con:.. gress In this district He Is making a hard fight, and his popularity Is increasing. He is known on the stump as the "Blacksmith Ora tor." Mr. Lee Is a type of the self-made American. Thrown upon his own re sources In his youth, his progress was beset with many adversities. He had little opportunity to attend school, be cause he was compelled to go out Into the world to earn a living for his widowed mother and the" children. He was employed as assistant at a newspaper press In Pottsville. He was later hired by a local carriage and wagon builder,- who put young Lee to work at one of. the forges. He devel oped both muscle and skill, and It was not long before he advanced to be fore man of the shop. With an ambition to enter mercantile life, he beean in a modest w with the little capital he had accumulated, but with unlimited creait among tnose wno knew his worth as a young man. To day he is one of the leading men In this community. "Burralo Bin Cody Is a great friend 'and admirer of Lee. He became the Democratic candidate for county treasurer at the solicitation of friends three years ago, and he was elected over the most copular Republi can In the county, when the Demo crat did not know whom to name for corfgress with a prospect of winning, one of the leaders suggested "Row Lee,, and he was accepted unanimously. His popularity has increased with the campaign, especially among the wage earners. ONLY A MILLION SPENT BY G. 0. P. ? (United Press Ltued Wlrt.l Chicago, Nov. 2.

F. DE MARS declared a delinquent child, the defease asserts that manv facts will be brought out to show that -the boy had great prov ocation for tha act. To prove him delinquent it must be shown that he is, guilty of some crime under tha statutes of Oregon. There fore if the state' shows tbat he Is guilty of homicide In any degree he must be declared delnquent. If the Jury decides-that the killing was Jus tified, and In that "event only, it can declare htm not delinquent, which is equivalent to an acquittal. Itm found delinauent it la considered LllkeT that the boy will be dealt with oy judge Gantenbeln in the Juvenile court He could then be sentenced to the reform school without further pro ceedings. On the other hand he could be held for trial In tue circuit court on a murder charge, but as he Is too young to bo confined in the state penitentlsry the ottlyl verdict that would ha effective would be one of murder in the first de- gree, wlth hanging as the penalty. It Is not probable tn at the atate would care, to put him on trial for the first aegree crime. Judge Gantenbeln has announced that when tha taking of testimony begins he will exclude the public from the court room. Ha thinks that the presence of a big crow-" during the trial might give the boy the Idea that he la a hero. If acquitted, and would tend to unnecesary excitement and - be Inadvisable In any event. During the examination of talesmen this morning the : court ruled that 12 peremptory challenges will be allowed the defendant-and six to the state, just as in a regular cape of capital crime. This morning only two jurors out of five were .excused one bv the court and one on peremptory challenge bv the de fense, so It seems ..unlikely that either side will exhaust Its challenges. The two men excused. were W. P. Anthony ana a. uooaau. eacn or tnem acknowl edging that he had formed an opinion from reading newspaper- accounts of the killing pf De Mars.

This number was reduced to 40 after the grand jvlry had been subtracted and the court had granted excuses for cause. Tomorrow there will be no court, as the election gives the courthouse a holiday.
