OREGON MAN GETS
EIRST LAND PRIZE
Iwdore Stilli, of Myrtle Creek, Lucky
at Coeur d'Alene Lottery.
Little Girls Are Kept Busy for Hours
Drawing Winning Numbers Be­
neath Scorching Sun— Double Set
of Numbers Are Drawn to Guard
Against Accident.
Spokane, Aug. 10.—When little
Helen Hamilton, niece of Mayor Boyd,
of Coeur d’Alene, walked into a pile of
105,000 yellow envelopes containing
applications for land of the Coeur
d’Alene Indian reservation yesterday
morning, shortly after 10 o’clock, the
great land drawing on the three tracts
of government land—the FlatheBd, the
Coeur d’Alene and the Spokane Indian
reservations- was on.
Several hundred people stood around
the platform, on which Judge James
W. Witten, of Washington, D. C.,
formally opened the drawing on one of
the last of the big tractB of Uncle
Sam's public domain. Unlike the rush
in ‘‘s(|uatter” days, the modern method
of distributing land moved along with
the precision of clockwork.
When Miss Hamilton, daintily dreBsed
in white, had plucked the first lucky
envelope from the mass and handed it
to Judge Witten and the name of Isa-
dore Selig, of Myrtle Creek, Or., had
been read aloud, the gathering crowds
begun to evidence increased interest
and quivering excitement.
A faint cheer arose and followed in
rapid order as Miss Hamilton, aided
by Miss Christine Donlan and Miss
Harriet Pest, plucked the other lucky
envelopes from the pile. Men and
women, now anxious to hear the ver­
dicts in the first 20 envelopes, crowded
up to the platform whpre newspaper
men and government clerks grabbed
at the bits of news-bearing names and
started them throughout the land by
special wir> s run to the drawing stand.
The whole affair is a perfect deline­
ation of the large scale on which Uncle
Sam conducts his official business. The
drawing for the first day closed at 4
o’clock.
The mark of 1500 set by
Judge Witten as the labor for the
first day, was reached and the remain­
ing 1500 will be drawn today. There
are but about half that many claims to
be given away, but the extra 1500 are
drawn to fill in where winners fail to
file by April 1.
IR R IG ATIO N C O N G R E S S O PEN .
Large Number Gathers at Spokane to
Discuss Important Affairs.
Spokane, Aug. 10.—The congress
opened with the “ Irigation Ode,” sung
by the Spokane chorus of 250 voices.
Tne address of welcome to the state
was delivered by Governor Hay, of
Washington.
On behalf of the city Mayor N. S.
Pratt spoke. He caused the suggestion
of a sensation by charging private cap­
ital with interfering with government
reclamation projects.
The response on behalf of the con­
gress was made by George E. Barstow,
president of the congress.
It is understood that a number of
state delegations have declined to com­
mit themselves in the matter of indors­
ing a candidate for president. This
is true in the case of President Bar­
stow, who, although an announced can­
didate, has not been urged strongly for
a second term because of the feeling
that the honor should be “ passed
around.” Other candidates for the
president of the congress developed
during the day in the persons of ex-
Governor Gooding, of Idaho; ex-Gov-
ernor Pardee, of California, and Con­
gressman Mondell, of Wyoming.
The question of a next meeting place
has narrowed down to a fight between
San Francisco and Pueblo, Colo., with
Denver pledged to aid the latter.
The new constitution privilege, the
busniess-like basis so much desired by
the congress, was adopted without dis­
sent.
Bank Guaranty Law Effective.
Austin, Texas, Aug. 10.—The new
guaranty of bank deposits law passed
by the recent special session of the
Texas legislature went into operation
yesterday. The law is similar to the
Oklahoma law in all its most import­
ant provisions. It provides for and de­
fines two alternative methods or plans
for the protection of the depositors of
state banking corporations which are
referred to as the “ guaranty fund
plan” and the “ bond security plan,”
respectively. The state banks may
decide which plan to adopt.
Agreement Seems Probable.
Stockholm, Aug. 10.—No newspapers
were published in Stockholm today, the
printers having joined the general
strike yesterday. It is believed this
new phase of the situation will result
in arbitration being opened. Now that
the people have no way of disseminat­
ing information regarding the situa­
tion it is not believed the condition of
affairs can be tolerated long. There
are many indications that the strike is
near an end and it appears probable
that the men and the employers will
soon reach an agreement.
Six Die in Fire.
Chicago, Aug. 10.—Fire which
swept away 20 residences in South
Chicago this morning burred at least
six persons to 'Vath. All the occupants
were asleep and the fire spread with
great rapidity. In the great confusion
it is feared several children were
burned to death in their beds. A ma­
jority of the victims are Poles, who
lived In small tenements, closely
crowded together, with scant chance
for escape.
Wellman May Soon Fly.
Troinsoe, Norway, Aug. 10.—Advices
received here from Spitzenbergen,
where the Walter Wellman polar ex­
pedition is being prepared for an at­
tempt to r< ach the north pole, say the
repairs to the balloon shed which was
badly damaged by a storm last June,
have been completed and a gas appar­
atus has been installed.

Moro, Or.,Aug. 0.—Judge Butler late
Saturday night dissolved the temporary
injunction issued axginat Porter Bros.
This means that Twohy Brus. will not
be permitted to cross the Gurtz ranch
with supply teams and equipment for
the Deschutes Railway company.
Not to be outdone, llarriman's legal
representatives at once filed condemna­
tion proceedings against Porter Bros,
in an effort to force an entrance to the
disputed territory through the property
of their rivals.
Arguments in the injunction case oc­
cupied two days in the circuit court
here. A night BcBsion was also held
to expedite the hearing. There was a
long array of legal talent for both con­
testing parties.
The evidence showed that the plain­
tiffs secured certain rights to go over
these certain lands with their wagons
and outfits, and on the strength of
these rights, expended $8,000 in con­
structing a grade down the canyon of
the Descuhtes to the railroad right of
way. But no deeds were taken by the
plaintiffs from the land owners, nor
any agreements in writing. Porter
Bros, saw the opportunity and purchas­
ed from the land owners the lands over
which this road ran, and immediately
upon securing possession under these
contracts stopped the Deschutes Rail­
way company from sending in supplies
over the road.
While the temporary injunction was
in force, the DeschuteB Railway com­
pany had been sending in about 10 to
15 wagonloads of provisions to the l iv­
er each day.

Ranchers
and Dealers Desperate;
Housewives Happy.
L 03 Angeles, Cal., July 9.—With
peaches selling four pounds for one
cent, cantaloupes being hawked at 10
cents a dozen, and apricots rotting be­
cause nobody will buy them at any
price, ranchers and commission men
are thoroughly disgusted while the
housewife rejoices. Prices are so de­
moralized that cantaloupe growers of
this section met today and decided to
let all but the best fruit rot.
Only choice melons will be brought
into market, and the growers have an
ironclad agreement not to sell these at
less that $1 a crate. The glut extends
to tomatoes. The finest kind in size,
color and flavor fetched only 10 cents a
box today.

Tw o Thousand in School.
New York, Aug. 9.—Columbia uni­
versity’s new departure, a summer
school, has 2,000 students on its roster,
of whom 1,930 are taking the regular
course of lectures and studies and the
balance are attending the College of
Physicians and Surgeons. Under the
new order of things it becomes possible
for one to get the university degrees
by attending one regular and two sum­
mer sessions of the university, or for
those who cannot afford this four
summer sessions will answer the re­
quirements.
Diamond Business Good.
New York, Aug. 9.—The prosperity
of the Western farmer has depleted the
stock of diamonds in Maiden Lane, and
the importing houses there have hur­
ried their buyers across the ocean to
purchase new supplies. Dealers say
that the lethargy which began in the
jewelry trade two years ago has been
followed of late by so great an increase
in business that the trade was taken by
surprise, and that even the larg> st
dealers were finding it difficult to fill
orders for the higher grades of perfect
stones.

New York, Aug 9.—Jens Sverson

for two years as assistant general ad­
viser, will start for America within a
week to make a short visit to his old
home. |His work has been so satisfac­
tory to the king and the government
that his quick promotion has followed.
