"Garden of Eden", where every prospect pleases and man
alone is vile, is again in tne limengm aiong wmi jus
"queen" and her royal consort in promotion. A dispatch
from Los Angeles states:
Mrs. Ena M. Harper, who lives In a sumptuous homo In Hollywood,
was Indicted by the federal grand jury today, accused ot having fraud
ulently used the malls In promotion of a colonization project ot ao
Island oft tho coast ot Lower California, Mexico.
Hundreds of colonists recruited from California, Oregon and Wash
ington lost a total ot 1500,000 In the project, the government alleges.
Dozens ot families are said to have gone to the Island from Portland,
Albany, Salem and other cities in Oregon, whllo in the Yakima valley,
Washington, Mrs. Harper and her associates allegedly obtained moro
than $200,000 In contracts.
Tho Island, about 45 miles soutn ot Mazauun, was ui -i
promoters as a veritable "Garden of Eden," when, as a matter of fact,
it is barren and overrun with insect pests and snakes, federal agents
declared.
Salem investors know this alluring paradise of the Pacific
to the extent of $GO,000 plus, of their hard earned money.
Some of them continued long-range farming and cocoanut
planting for several years before the bugs, pests, reptiles
and salt water triumphed or the natives confiscated their
crops.
How many times this island has been sold and resold,

all nbout her?
She was glad to have Mob Ran

Sho felt that sho could depend on

who had supplanted her at his slue.
