REHEAR NG
ALLEGED THAT THE COURT
ERRED XS INSTRUCTION'S.
Defense Brings Up Old Contention
That Complaining Witness Was a
Party to the Crime N'o Motion Yet
Piled for a Rehearing of the Grover
Martin Case Walter Ogilvey is
Charged With Grand Larceny Com.
niltted at Pilot Ruck He Is Said to
Rave Stolen Clinking.
Before the supreme court today a
motion for a rehearing in the case of
Moses Taylor was filed by Carter,
Raley & Raley, attorneys for the defendant'
The basis upon which a rehearing
is asked Is that in Its recent decision
the court did not pass upon one cer
tain point which was raised n the ap
peal. This is that the circuit Judge
erred In not giving certain lnstruc
tions asked for by the counsel for the
defense. The same were In relation
to the contention that John Banister,
owner of the property to be burned,
was a party to the crime because he
knew of the plot and, acting in con
cert with Palmer and McGrath, ar
ranged to have it carried out
As a result of the filing of the mo
tion for rehearing, Taylor will avoid
commencing his term In the penlten
tiary at the expiration of the 20 days
following the decision. However, it is
said to be customary for the supreme
court to act speedily upon motions of
such character. Consequently, unless
the motion should be sustained, the
convicted man will soon have to go
to Jail.
Also, a motion for a rehearing was
fljed in the case of Grover Martin.
In the latter case the reason given
for a rehearing is that the court erred
In admitting the testimony of Dr.
Thomas, for the reason that he was
Incompetent as an expert, and that a

question asked him did not confine
the answer to a wound regarding
which he testified previously.
Grand Larceny Clinrge w Amended.
Walter Ogilvey, a young man, was
brought In from Pilot Rock last eve
ning by Constable McReynolds and
placed In the county Jail. The charge
against Ogilvey Is that of stealing
some clothing from a wagon In a pub
lic barn in Pilot Rock.
Yesterday he was given a hearing
before Justice of the Peace A. Miller,
and admitted his guilt. However,
sentence was suspended by Judge Mil
ler and the case turned over to the
-district attorney on the ground that
since the crime was committed In a
public place, the Justice did not have
jurisdiction.
While the reason assigned for send
ing the case Into the circuit ceurt was
wrong, It will be taken up by District
Attorney Phelps, as the articles were
of such value as to make the case one
of grand larceny.
3. A. McLaughlin Improving.
J. A, McLaughlin, proprietor of the
Gurdane coal mines, who was severe
ly cut by a barbed wire fence some
time ago, almost losing his foot In an
accident, is greatly Improved and will
again. While returning home from
Butter Creek a few days ago, his
horse became frightened and ran in
to a wire fence, tearing the flesh
from one ef his feet and otherwise
severely cutting him.

P. Parmentier, who went to Gran
ite last June to spend the season In
the mines, returned this morning to

are working in the Granite district,
and most all of the mines are paying
well. Considerable snow has fallen
In the mountains but the weather Is
mild and all the roads are yet open.
He will return to the mines next
April.

progressive movement will assuredly

Future Cities.
The outlook for the building of
great cities there Is not brilliant, prob
ably fortunately to, because their in
fluence either from a moral or civic
standpoint, is at least debatable, but
the future will see somewhere upon
the Oregon side of the upper Colum
bin, probably near the head of Its
deeper waters, a distributing center
of magnitude and Importance. This
will be assured by the combination of
three influences, the demands of a
growing population, the water and rail
transportation facilities there meeting.
nnd the more favorable rates which
the opening of the Isthmian canal
will compel the railroads to accord
Intei lor points.
The magnificent water power on the
Minum. the Wallowa and the Grand
Ronde rivers will some day be turned
upon the wheels of a hundred factor
ies, and 'Oregon's great Industrial com
munity will be located somewhere
near the confluence of these 3treams.
There will he the Manchester of the
west. Kot only will the abundant
power command this result, but the
wealth of forests nnd minerals In the
adjacen' mountains, the building stone
of Union and the marble of Wallowa
supplemented by the wonderful agri
cultural a i, d horticultural possibilities
of these counties, win Insure diversity
and permanency to a city of an hund
red thousand people, as the state de
velops. Safely maybe predicted similar cen
ters of Industry, commerce and popu
lation in the .Klamath basin In the
southwest, upon the Des Chutes in the
central portioa of the state, upon the
Snake river In the southwest and In
the great Harney valley In the south.
Natural conditions In these several sec
tions, the construction of railroads,
the extending of systems of irrigation,
will all unite to fulfill in completest
measure a prophecy like this.
Induries.
The dominant Industry of eastern
Oregon 19 yet and for a decade yet
to come will be, the growing of live
stock. The facile growth of alfalfa
In the valleys, the fattening bunch
grass of the hills, the extensive pas
turage upon the government domain,
the mild winters, the dry atmosphere,
the hitherto sparsely settled Condition
of the country, have made the great
eastern counties of our commonwealth
a paradise for the herdsman and the
flockmaster. The pastoral life, how
ever, has In all the history of the race
yielded to the onflow of people, and
with the incoming of transportation
lines and the immigration which will
promptly follow In their train, and
vast land holdings of the livestock
companies will be sub-divided and
10,000 homes will spring into being.
The wilderness of today will be the
grain field of tomorrow.
Second In the list of occupations.
and Indeed rapidly advancing to first
rank, must be placed wheat culture.
The northern tier of counties east of
the Cascades have already become the
granary of the state, and rapidly the
yellowing field is moving southward,
norrowlng the ranges and enhancing
land values. With added people to
consume the Increased production and
transportation facilities ample to re
lieve the congestion of surplus, the
grain area of all the Interior will wid
en by leaps nnd bounds until Its yiold
will be Astonishing. Innumerable
bodies of land yet open to homestead
settlement or If in private hands, com
manding only a luminal price, will
then, under Intelligent husbandry,
mean to their owners an assured live
lihood. If not comfortable fortune. No
section of the republic today offers
greater attractions to men of courage,
Industry and foresight, than the Inland
portion of this state, and men and wo
men who have patience to labor alone
for a season, and the spirit of sacrifice
to forego the social privileges of rail
road centers, can find there opportu
nities to make for themselves and
their children homes and modest for
tunes, and to them will be the high
honor of having participated In the
building of a state.
The third calling In order of im
portance is that of horticulture and,
stimulated by the progress of irriga
tion, its growth In variety and charac
ter of Its products, In advancing values
of fruit lnnds, and In the progressive
spirit of Its votaries, Is Indeed wonder
ful. The fame of Hood River apples
ana strawberries Is continent wide;
that portion of the Walla Walla val
ley In Oregon can boast of fame onlv
a degree less wide. Malheur needs
but assured markets and cheaper
transportation to equal both, while
the lower Umatilla reclaimed from
sand and sagebrush under the com
plete irrigation system now planned
by the federal government presents
ideal conditions to become a rival of
all of these, while a hundred smaller
valleys will contribute an ever Increas
ing share to the great total ot this
Industry.
Need
First of all the requirements of the
vast trans-Cascade region Is railroad
building. The theory that may have
once obtained that railways are need
ed only when a country has reached
a material condition to assure them
dividends has passed away. Popula
tion will follow established lines or
transportation rapidly. Slowly it
moves before them. Had the great
transportation companies done for
Oregon In building In the past 20
years what they have done for her
sister state of the north, this state
would today have a population of a
million souls, and its eastern counties
would long since have escaped from
the thralldora of land monopolies.
There Is needed a railroad bisecting
the state east and west from the ocean
to the Snake river, establishing some
wnere near the center of the state a
Junction point from which lines shall
run northwest to Portland and As
toria, and southwest to the towns of
Coos Bay, which road shall be fed
Hnd supplemented by at least three
lines traversing the state north and
south, opening up the wheat and min
ing regions now undeveloped, and
penetrating the great valleys anJ rich
tuble lands of Harney, Lake and Kla
math. This accomplished, such de
velopment In Industry and population
will ensue that the world will wonder
at the matchless message sent from
Oregon awakened.
Next stands the need of enthrone
ment of Irrigation sentiment and the
ushering In of an era of small farms.
Behind the government In Its policy
of forest preservation the conserva
tion of the sources of water supply
and the utilization of waters for the
reclamation of arid lands should be
aligned every Influence and every
nope for the upbuilding of the com
monwealth. Marry the wasting waters
of our mountain streams to the drift
ing sands and sagebrush wastes and
the resultant will be fruits and grains
and fnlrest flowers. The union will
mean a home nnd a family on every
20 acres under the ditches, nnd a
mighty people contented, prosperous
and happy will pour the products of
their industry and thrift Into the ex
change places of the coast. Cities will
grow, factories will flourish, com
merce will thrive.
II relief be possible under existing
laws or through new legislation which
shall be Just a remedy should be
found for that blight of alien owner
ship of lands which rests upon much
of the eastern section of Oregon. Vast
tracts have been held for years by In
(II vi duals and corporations having no
Interest In the development of the
state save to reap ultimate profit from
the enterprise and Industry of the
owners of neighboring holdings. They
refuse either to develop- their own
lands or to sell them. Either by old
world training or new world cunning,
they have grasped the Astor principle
of gaining wealth, and await the un
earned Increment No greater curse
ever rested on any people than land
lordism, and no landlordism was ever
worse than that which holds under
Its yoke, not only tenants, but every
progressive movement of an undevel
oped country.
Finally, the eastern counties Justly
demand the establishment there of an
agricultural Institution not merely
an experiment station, nor yet neces
sarily a college where shall be stud
ied and taught In fact as well as the
ory, the elements and Influence of soil
and climate which there obtain, to the
end that the development of the coun
try may be prompt. Intelligent and
symmetrical. By disappointment and
often bitter experience, the men al
ready at the front are learning what
to do and how to do It, but it has
taken a decade to restore the faith
which early failures lost A strong
corps of teachers, earnest, practical,
progressive, equipped and sustained
by the state, at work upon the ground
enthusiasts like the apostle of the
corn train In Iowa or the plant wizard
of California, would soon Impress
pupils and people alike with the
truths of advanced husbandry and
proclaim In convincing experience the
worth of lands now Ignored.
Homeseekers.
Oregon needs people. Either of her
great valleys the Willamette or the
Harney, properly developed, can sup
port In comfort the entire population
of the state today. The crowded east
needs Oregon; needs Its vacant, fer
tile acres for the overflow of popula
tion there.
There are 15 counties In that por
tion of the state denominated eastern
Oregon, containing an aggregate of
65,883 square miles, in which reside
less than 150,000 people. ' I
One of these counties Is larger than
the entire state of Massachusetts, an
other extends over greater area than
all of Vermont, while there are two
more, each of which exceed In extent
Rhode Island and Connecticut com
bined, and two others, each as large
as Delaware, while the smallest of
them all contains 736 square miles.
All the state will welcome those who
come, law-abiding, intelligent, pro
gressive, industrious, God-fearing,
willing to make the sacrifice, bear the
burdens and assume the responsibili
ties attendant upon maintaining the
mosaic of the Puritan and Cavalier
as their fathers have planted It here.
The men and women who have bulld-
ed the structure of the commonwealth
to Its present stage are largely chil
dren of the east, and they will wel
come newcomers as members of their
own households, blood of their own
blood.
Let the message go forth, far-flung
to the waiting enrs In the old homes
upon the Atlantic, in the south and
on the prairies of the central west,
proclaiming that Oregon, rich In soli,
In mines and fisheries, in timber and
In undeveloped resources of infinite
variety, with climate unsurpassed,
with scenery of exalted splendor, Is
coming unto her own; that the down
of the state's new day is breaking;
that her one ultimate need is people.
