In Use For Over Thirty Years The program for the horticultural meeting at the courthouse Saturday night was carried out as advertised and the addresses all proved very In teresting. Another interesting fea ture was the question box. Numerous I questions pertaining to the growing' if fruit were asked and answers given by the speakers and others present. Before the close of the meeting M H. Harlow offered the following I resolution, which was unanimously adonted: Whereas, Efforts are being made to misrepresent the issue of the Univer sity of Oregon appropriation, which issue conies up before the people next [June; and hereas. The amount appropriated for the State University, instead of being exorbitant, is decidedly small compared with the amounts spent for the same purposes in our sister states; therefore be it Resolved, By th" horticulturists of Lane county, assembled in mass meet ing under the auspices of the l^ane County Horticultural Ass',elation and the Eugene Commercial Club, this 1th day of January. 1908, al the cou- ‘y court house, Eug ne, J an° county, Oregon, that we place ourselves on record as being heartily in favor of hte appropriation: end he I: further Resolved, That wo urgently request our fellow horticulturists throughout the state of Oregon to study the ques tion impartlally and then act for the best interests of the educational sys- tem of the state of Oregon. + + + + + + ♦ ♦ + ♦ ♦ ♦ + + + + + ♦ Queenstown, Jan 7. -The long ov rdue Canadian Paci fic steamer M >. nt Royal steamed slowly Into Queens town harbor .today.

BRIDGE NEAR COBURG COMPLETED HARTJE REFUSED RIGHT TO APPEAL V'FURSiHIDES GRAFTING SUPERIVOR DROPPED DEAD TODAY SILVER MARKET MAKE BIG JUMP From Erery Ounce of Fuel I.a it night at 7:30 o’clock was the time set by the city council for the opening of bids for the $300,000 wa ter bonds recently voted by the peo ple of Eugene,but the matter of open ing and examining them was post poned until a future time awaiting the decision in the case at Portland wherein Judge Cleland, of the circuit court, declared the bond election there to be illegal. As the Eugene election seems to have been the same as the one at Portland, the city offi cials thought it best to await a final decision on the matter or until after the election next April, when the question will be voted upon again and in a manner that will leave no doubt as to the legality of the elee- lion. City Recorder Dorris stated to a reporter today that there are a num ber of bids for the bonds, most the moffered by local capitalists.

JAPANESE RESERVES ABE NOT BEING CALLED HOME Washington, Jan. 6.—Mr. Mlayoka, in charge of the Japanese embassy here, today authorized a formal deni al of trie report from Vancouver, B.C., that the Japanese government Is re calling to Japan its reserve men now In the United States, and that he had not the leant Intimation of any such purpose on the part of the Japanese government. Moreover, a call to re turn to Japan of the reservists would necessarily be proceeded a considera ble time by the mobilization of the re- serve now In Japan. TAIT FA VOI S M<'HE PAY FOR THE ABM Y Portland. Jan. 7.—In the light of the supreme court's decision of yes terday Congressman Williamson’s ac quittal, when his case comes on again for retrial, seems almost certain. , The conviction and punishment of Dr. Van Gesner and Marion Biggs, who were co-defondants with Wil liamson, seems. In the light of the de cision, to have been unmarranted. Dr. Van Gesner was but recently released from the county jail of Multnomah county, after undergoing a sentence of five months’ imprison ment and paying a fine of $l()()0. Marlon R. Biggs is still in the same Jail, under sentence of ten months’ imprisonment and $500 fine. Sentenced by Hunt. The conviction of Williamson, Biggs and Van Gesner occurred Sep tember 27, 1905, on their third trial. They were sentenced by Judge Hunt October 14, 1905. Each of the ear lier trials resulted In a hung jury. Francis J. Heney wa3 the prosecu tor and the defendants were repre sent'd by Judge Bennett, of The Dalles, and Judge Wilson. The three defendants were accused of Inducing various persons in Crook county to take up claims, which, it was charged, they afterward agreed before final proof to sell to William son and Van Gesner. Scores of wit nesses were called from Crook county and other parts of the state, and an army of special agents was employed In watching the Jury, the defendants, their attorneys and the wltnessea. The conclusion of the supreme court Is that a contract of sale made by the entry man after he has ___ filed his application for the entry, but be fore he has made his final proof, in not a violation of the federal land laws In view of this ruling, a num ber of the iapd fraud cases now pend ing must probably be dismissed, as the same state of facts exists in them as In the Williamson case. It Is pos sible nlso that the decision may af fect the case of W. N. Jones and Thaddeu« Potter, who were convicted, but whose cases are now on appeal. Washington, Jan. 6.—Secretary Taft is a stron : t’dvo'-ate of increased pay for the army, and his annual re port Just, sent to c ¡ngre.i? dispels any doubt that mry exist as to his dispo sition. The repor* -.hows a rapid de crease In th" etr'tigth of the army, the loss last y 'ar having been 4428 men, and th" pressing need for officers to repl i those now detailed on recruiting duty end as military In structors in edu atlonnl Institutions.
