THE
SUPREME
Chief Counsel King of Re
clamation Service Here to
Aid in Fight,
NEW PARISH HALL
f BE DEDICATED
Exercises Are to Be Held at
Sellwood Tomorrow Even
ing at 8 o'Clock,
Of so much importance to the gov
ernment is the suit of the Maxwell
Land & Irrigation company against
the Hermiston Bank & Trust com
pany that Judge Will R. King, cnier
counsel in the reclamation service of
the department of agriculture, jour
neyed all the way from Washington to
participate in the arguments before
the state supreme court last Monday.
Assistant United States Attorney E.
A. Johnson was appointed special
counsel to represent the government
In the case as a co-defendant with the
trust company. The Maxwell com
pany owns 8000 of the 25.000 acres of
the Umatilla project, and it was its
agreement, along with others, to abide
by the government irrigation statute
that caused the government to start
developing the project. The Maxwell
company, to show its good faith, deed
ed its land In trust to the Hermiston
Bank & Trust company.
Alleging misrepresentation on the
part of government agents, the Max
well company is suing to cancel the
contract and the deeds. Johnson over
a year ago filed a demurrer to the
suit on the ground that the govern
ment is the principal party concerned;
that the government is not named a
party in the suit, and that the govern
ment cannot be sued In a state court.
Judge Phelps at Pendleton sustained
the government's demurrer, and the
Maxwell people appealed from his de
cision to the state supreme court. If
that body sustains Judge Phelps' de
cision, it will mean that the Maxwells
will have to start a new suit in the
federal court.
The government has already spent
$1,600,000 in developing the project.
Johnson contends, and the withdrawal
of the Maxwell lands, he declares, will
make U almost worthless. The lands
under water now are valued at $60 an
acre, and for the Maxwell lands to be
withdrawn would mean that the re
mainder of the project would have to
be valued at $90 an acre.
The new Parish hall of St. Agatha
at Sellwood la to be dedicated tomor
row evening at 8:15 o'clock and in
honor of the occasion, a fine program
has been prepared. Among the speak
ers will be Archbishop Christie, Rev.

In connection with the news that
Klaw & Erlanger are going to build a
new motion picture theatre in Seattle

mill be added, and with this in mind
the lCIa.w & Erlanger forces have been
buying some $000 plays during the last
year. Their first picture effort Is
"The Life and Works of Richard Wag
ner." Probably early in March "Ben
Hur,' "The Roundup" and 'Strong

"The Baggage & Omnibus company
has enjoyed the privilege of an office
In the Union depot, and other cour
tesies from the terminal company, not
to the detriment, but greatly to the
advantage of the traveling public."
said W. H. Warrens, manager of the
company, this morning, in connection
with charges that are being heard by
the state railroad commission to the
effect that the company Is monopoliz
ing all the baggage business.
"We do 60 per cent of the tetal bag
gage hauling in this city, and the of flee
at the depot facilitates the handling
of the baggage to the benefit of the
traveling public," he explained.
Tho present management and own
ership of the company has existed for
one year. W'hen the change was made,
several employes of the old company
were discharged and one or two of the
department managers resigned. E. K.
Brown, one of the former managers.
organized a transfer company on a
par with many other concerns of th
city and he, with one or two others,
is trying to compel the Northern
Pacific Terminal company to do away
wuu our men ana our service at the
depot.
"The Terminal company is flsrhtinr
this move, realising that the public
will suffer great inconvenience if these
itinerate companies are allowed to
have their way.
"Any money that was paid to ter
minal employes was done without my
knowledge under vouchers for extra
service at the depot and when the de
tails of the practice became known to
me, I immediately put a stop to it.
We don't buy our business that way."
