They did not appear In person, but Attorney J. P. Winter, who represented them, entered a plea of guilty and they were each fined to. According to the story told by Ung Goey, the two men patronized his place Saturday evening and when through eating noodles tried to pay him 20 cents Instead of 30.

Dam an In the sum of 32100 are asked for by each of the three plaintiffs. The scene of the projected Irriga tion works as well as the land filed for by the three Kansans Is on the Snake river about 30 miles from Glenns Ferry, and the plans of the defendants, It Is claimed, were deeply laid for the deception of home-seek ers throughout the western states. On October 5, 1903, the Bruneau Land & Irrigation company, under the executive management of B. F. Olden, president; T. B. Long, secretiyy, and c. m. wicknam. Immigration) agent, was Incorporated for the alleged pur pose of constructing dams and reser voirs to store the waters of the Bru neau river, Jack's creek and Wlcka honey creek In Owyhee county a,nd to sell water rights to settlers. In the years from 1903 to 190B Inclus ive, agents were dispatched through many of the western states to Induce homeseekers to settle In this state and buy water rights of the company In question. The defendants, It Is alleged by the plaintiffs, never had enough money In their treasury to build the water works, and it is charged that they never had any Intension of building the same. C. H. Thompson, the agent of the irrigation promoters, canvassed the state of Kansas, and while there In terested the Ransom men In his prop osition. The Kansans say they left Ransom In July, 1904, and were met by Thompson at Pueblo, Col. On August 9, 1904, contracts for tracts of land In the Snake river country were made with the Bruneau Land & Ditch company. Each of the three plaintiffs wrote 10 promissory notes, falling due at Intervals of one year, the first eight at face value of 3640 and the ninth and tenth of 3960. The plaintiffs pray for the produc tlon In court of the promissory notes still outstanding and their destruc tion. In addition to the Judgment for damages. The district court yester day ordered Injunctions to be served on B. F. Olden, T. B. Long and C. M. Wlckham. L WORK ON MODEL RO Salem's "Good lload" Will Last n Hundred Years. Pendleton and Umatilla county are anxiously awaiting the coming of the government good roads train to this count to build a mile of model road. The Salem Journal says of the work now being done near that city by the government crew: Tho work on the "object lesson road," now In construction by gov ernment experts, near the fair grounds. Is progressing rapidly. More than 460 feet have been rocked with the finishing layer of screenings and will be rolled effectively from now on until the "object lesson" draws to a close. The two first layers of rock have been applied for a distance of more than 1100 feet. As the crew be6omes mo,re familiar with the work, the put ting down of the rock will be done more rapidly. "That's a piece of road that will Inst 100 years," said a farm er who came from a distance to ex amine the manner of construction. Permanency Is one of the qualities ol the macadamized roads, and right here In Salem the entire system will be tested, as It Is believed the method of construction used on the "object leson road" is of the most approved type, and one that has been tested in various climes. .Melons From Milton.
