Section of Land Between Malheur and Nevada Line Being Entered by Scheming Land Grabbers. Baker City. Nov. 18. Samuel White, district attorney for Baker, Union and Wallowa counties, gives out the statement today that he would be present at Huntington the Irst week In December and personally In vestigate the alleged attempt to ob tain all state school lands between Rye vallley. In Baker county, and tlie Nevada state lino. It Is reported an effort Is being made to take land, to tally valueless, and later declare it valuable for its minerals, and thus se cure scrip from the government, says the Telegram. Wholesale Entry of Land. For some weeks past a notice !.i,3 been running In a Huntington paper from the united States land office at Burns, setting forth that testimony will he taken at Huntington, Decem ber 1, before John A. Lehman, a no- tary public, to establish the charac- ter of a large number of tracts of land, therein described, and that a final hearing will be had at the Bums land office December 15 This I n volves In the neighborhood of 100,' 000 acres of land belonging to the schools of Oregon, and situated In Ba ker and Malheur counties The notice Is signed William Fare, as register. and Charles Newell, receiver. The Possibility of Fraud. This land may be withdrawn from settlement upon witnesses swearing the vast tracts are more valuable for their mineral properties than for either agricultural or timber. It could be then procured from the stare for $1.25 per acre, scrip being obtain ed and the same negotiated for other school lands, and the tract sold foi $5 and fi an acre. By taking up valuable timber land with scrip It can he readily seen some one stands in a fair way to mako a small fortune. Notices in Obscure Paper. It is charged fraud is Intended by those Instrumental in having the no tice posted. The law specifies that land notices shall be published In a newspaper published nearest the laud sought. The land Involved In this case is In closer proximity to Ontario and Vnle than Huntington, but it is alleged the ones behind the move found 'the Huntington weekly more obscure. It must bo proven by the testimony that the land has been prospected and found to contain min eral properties which would prove valuable. Will Head Off the Attempt. This Instance Is the second trial made upon the same tracts. About a year ago It was tried, but it transpir ed a large amount of land Included had previously been patented by ranchers In the locality, and such a clamor was raised by Rye Val'oy farmers that no witnesses put in an appearance when the date arrived for taking the testimony. Thus the scheme was a failure. Whether or not the state land board has a repre sentative at Huntington December 1. to be present when the testimony is being taken, Baker county will be there In the person of Its prosecuting attorney, and some startling events are promised.

It seldom rains too much in Uma tilla county to suit the conservative farmer, but many are now wishing for a cessation ot the downpour until they can get their fall wheat sown. For nearly two weeks it has rained al most continuously and the ground is in a very soft condition. In fact more rain has fallen up to date than before for several years at this time of year. Farmers were glad to see It at first, but now it is too wet for seeding an 1 they are anxious for it to stop a few days. It Is estimated that not more than one-half of the summer fallow has been seeded to date and unless the rain stops soon It Is likely to freeze un and cut the number of acres of fall sown grain short. It is now coinlog the time of year for winter and a freeze Is expected at any date. CLEANING THE STREETS. Will Be Set to Flowers and Otherwise Beautified. Umatilla county's courthouse yard will be made a flower garden In the coining future A contract has now been let to F. W. Forshaw for the setting out of a lot of rose and other flower bushes and beds which will be done at once. While Umatilla coun ty has one of the finest courthouses in the state outside of Portland, the lawn has always been kept green with grass, but heretofore no attempt has been made to beautify It with flowers or shade trues. Now both will bo planted and the time Is coming when the courthouse yard If all plans now on foot materialize, will bo a flower garden. Some new arrivals at The NOLF Store A Pioneer Profession.
