Major Hartwig, who for the past year
has been engaged allotting the lands of
the Warm Spring agency to the Indians
under the Individuality Act as amended
in 1891, has finished his labors. Every
Warm Spring Indian, big, little, old or
young, now has allotted to him, accord
ing to his choice, either' eighty acres of
agricultural land, or 160 acres of grazing
land, or' forty acres of agricultural and
eighty acres of grazing land. One fea
ture of these deeds is that the Indian
cannot part title with the land for the
term of twenty-five years. At the expi
ration of this time they get a warrantee
deed. Major Hartwig informs us that
Lieutenant 'Farber has arrived at the
agency and taken charge, in place of
Lieutenant Benjamin, recalled. Prine

At Ashland.
Mr. Emil Schanno, of the horticultural
commission, returned Sunday from at
tending a meeting of the State Horti
cultural Society at Ashland. Some very
handsome fruit was shown. . Mr.
Schanno is highly pleased with the Ash
land country and predicts for it a" bril
liant future even without its mining in
terests, which are rapidly coming to the
front as a rival to the fruit industry.
The latter though is permanent, and can
never be worked out. The fruit area Is
mnch larger than he expected to see and
there is room for thousands of jamilies,
who can secure good homes and make
comfortable livings with Jess work than
anywhere in the world. ; 1

C. E. Morgan In Jail.
Mr. Charles E. Morgan, a well-known
insurance solicitor, was arrested last
evening for larceny by embezzlement on
a warrant from Justice Geisler's court,
sworn out by Mr. TJ. K. Arnold, of the
insurance firm of Boyd & Arnold. He
now' occupies a cell in the county jail, in
default of $1,500 bonds, while awaiting a
preliminary hearing to be given him
next Tuesday
Morgan is charged with the embezzle
ment of $633 from Boyd & Arnold, while
in their employ as sub-agent of the Ham
burg-Bremen Fire Insurance Company. i
The knowledge of - his peculations
reached his employers in July last, and
he was discharged from their 'employ
immediately. He was told that heti
would not be arrested if he would make
the shortage good, but, having failed to
do so, and showing ' no disposition to
make an attempt in that direction, Mr.
Arnold swore out a warrant for his ar
rest, and he was taken in custody by
Constable Conners while in the chamber
of commerce building, at 5 o'clock yesterday.
Morgan is married, and has lived with
his wife at Sunnyside for some time.
They have no children. The unfortu
nate man has a large circle of acquaint
ances in Portland, as a result of several
years' residence here, and they will re
ceive the news of his downfall with deep
regret. Morgan is about 50 years of age,
and came to Oregon . from Memphis,
Tenn. He was born in the South, and
served in the confederate army during
the rebellion. He has numerous rela
tives in Memphis who stand high in the
community. '
Mr. Arnold told an Oregonian re
porter last night of the causes leading
up to the arrest. Morgan was appointed
sub-agent of the Hamburg-Bremen In
surance Company, of which Boyd & Ar
nold are the agents for Portland, on Jan
uary 1st, of this year. - He was to re
ceive a salary for six months and, after
that, to be paid in addition on the basis
of a commission if the business brought
in by him justified it.
"Morgan seemed to work industriously
for some time," said Mr. Arnold, "but
got into trouble during the flood of this
year. He went over to the East Side,
and for several weeks I did not hear
from him. Finally when the waters
had subsided sufficiently to allow me, I
drove over there to look .him up. This
was on . July 1st. I found Morgan in a
saloon, and learned that he bad been on
a continuous spree. When I asked him
Lfor the money he had collected on sev
eral policies he had issued, he put me
off, saying he would settle later.
"The long and short of it all is," con
cluded Mr. Boyd, "that I found he had
collected several . hundred dollars, and
when confronted with the condition of
affairs he acknowledged his crooked'
ness. I asked him to settle with me,
and as he did not have any money, I
told him to try and secure me. This he
did not do, and several months having
since passed, during which time he has
avoided me, I concluded he would not
try to settle. So far as I know, he has
embezzled $633. . My, 'real reasons for
having him arrested are the result of
reports I have received that he was get
ting ready to leave the city for Califor
nia."7Oregonian. "' '
act provides that "All brands shall be
recorded in the county where the owner
resides, and in such other county where
such animals usually range ; and no evi

The act further provides that the brand
shall be burned in a piece of leather and
filed with the clerk, with a certificate as
to where the brand is to be placed.
Burn your brand on the leather and take
