FOR LAND FRAUD
Unable, to Give Bond and Having
Failed to Answer to Subpoena Ho
Is IxxlgtM In Jail Formerly Resi

at Mcnclwmi Recently Moved to
Benton County.
The seriousness of the Umatilla
county land fraud cases wu brought
vividly to mind in Portland Friday
night, when K. E. Porter, a former
resident of this city and onae the
lending wood dealer of Meacham,
was placed under arrest in Benton
county, his present home, and on fail
ure . to give bonds was immediately
placed in the Multnomah county Jail
on a charge of conspiracy to defraud
the United States government out of
valuable lands on the Blue moun
tains near Meacham.
Mr. Porter Is well known In this
city and for a number of years han
dled practically all of the wood ship
ped out of Meacham and was one
of the foremost dealers In fuel in
eastern Oregon. That he was inti
mately and directly connected with
the fraudulent acquisition of Umatilla
Indian bind is the belief of the fed
eral grand Jury which has been In
session in Portland for the pnHt two
weeks. The Oregon Dally Journal of
Saturday says of Mr. Porter's arrest:
Robert E. Porter, formerly a well
known wood and timber dealer in
Umatilla county and against whom an
indictment charging conspiracy to de
fraud the United States government,
was returned several days ago by the
federal grand Jury, was brought to
Portland last night by a deputy Uni
ted States marshal and placed in the
Multnomah county Jail.
Porter recently moved to Benton

Injunction Suit Complaint Must Be
Amended or Dropped.
At a circuit court session this morn
ing Judge S. A. Lowell, one of the
attorneys for the saloon men, brought
up the subject of the suit that was
filed by Anton Nolte. and Intimated
that the plaintiffs will file an. amend
ed complaint soon.
As to the exact status of the Nolle
case there seems much doubt and
seemingly the saloon men. are more
or less at sea as to what course they
will pursue. Apparently their com
plaint as it now stands is of no use
to them for the only thing prayed
for, an order restraining the county
court from issuing the prohibition
proclamation, was denied. This is the
opinion held by District Attorney
Phelps who regards that case as set
tled unless an amended complaint Is
filed.
When Interviewed today attorneys
for the saloon men seemed to be some
what In doubt as to what they will do.
But It Is understood a conference will
be held this evening and In all prob
ability a line of action agreed upon.
Should it be considered worth while
to carry their fight further an amend
ed complaint will be filed and Judge
Bean asked to set a date for a trial
of the case upon Its merits.

CHASES ROBBER ALL
OVER STATE OF OREGON
Man Wanted in Alaska for Embezzle
i.ient Is Finally Run to Earth.
After a chase lasting four years
William Sanders. Indicted at Nome,
Alaska, has been run to earth and Is
now In Jail at Katella. Alaska.,
The arrest is directly due to the ac
tivity of Joe Warren, former chief
of police in Spokane, who ran down
Sanders and has been hot on his trail
for months. Warren Is now a special
agent for the federal government and
has the Alaska territory to cover.
"I got onto this man Sanders' trail
a number of months ago and located
him at Sumpter, Ore. I hurried there
for him and mised him by a few
days," stated Warren. this morning.
"Then came the chase. I followed
him to Baker City, The Dalles, Cas
cade Locks, Portland, Seattle and fi
nally found, he had struck back to
Alaska.
"I could not catch up with him In
the states, for about every time I
would get him located he would move
away pnd I had to hunt him again. He
wa. not aware, however, that I was
on his trail, but couldn't have dodged
me better had he tried to do so.
"The arrest is particularly gratify
ing in view of the fact that before I
took up the chase three other offi
cers had been after him for several
years. He was Indicted for embezzle
ment at Nome by the federal grand
Jury In 1904 and skipped out at once.
I have been expecting to hear of his
arrest as I wired the marshal at Cor
dova near Valdez to look out for him.
Tho marshal, acting under by In
structions, caught him at Katella, He
will le returned to Seattle, where I
will take him In charge and escort
him back to Nome for trial. In spite
of the time elapsed the witnesses in
the case are still In Nome. I do not
know the amount he Is charged with
embezzling, but it was enough to
make his capture worth while."

Los Angeles, Cal., June 20. (Editor

great rejoicing among a little com

We would have liked to have had
a part In the actual work of re-making
Pendleton, but since that could
not be, nothing will give us greater
pleasure than to some day walk down
the streets of the "new city," free
from the sights that have caused so
much sorrow as well as always a feel
