Official Paper ofWasMntfcii County. BY D. W. BATH Mr. Mitchell Speaka. Wttnl.ingt.in, Jan. 17. While the rou tiiiH luminess of the mornintf hour was iti prioress in the henate t'lay, Mitch ell of Oregon entered the chamber. It was his first afarau: in the Hcnate since the imliitmeiil against hiui by a tcrum! jury of hi own ittate, and his en trance vreutal evident Interest. The an nounieineiit thut Mitchell would ad- Irt-KM the Senate in explaining ths t-harwea airuinrit him, had the effect of Blintf the galleries, and there also was a lilx-ral attendance of Senators. Mr. MiU hell took hia customary neat in the rear or the ihamUr and waa Irn mediately aurroundml by other Senators, wLo shook his hand warmly and gave him assurance of confidence in hia inno cence. The welcome was so hearty and so general that the Senator was nearly over.'ome, so that when, a tew moments later, he rime to sMak, his voice waa for a time almost inaudible and it was tlilfl cult for him to proceed on account of emotion. Mitchell read his statement from iiiamiwriU. As lie proceeded his voice cleared and there was little difficulty in hearing him throughout the chamber He had the undivided attention of Bena tors and visitors throughout his recital. The Hemitors, almost to a man, faced uUiut when Mitchell began to speak, and few of them changed jMmitions until he cloHcd. The scene was impressive. At the outset, the Senator declared that the charges made against him, if true, unfitted him to occupy his seat in the Senate. He then detailed the charg cs and said : "I assert in the most positive and un qualified manner that each and every one of these charges, insofar us they re' late to or involve me, are absolutely, un qualifiedly and atrociously false, ami I here and now indignantly and defiantly denounce their authors, and each and everyone of them, and brand them pub licly as malicious and atrocious liars." Following this general denial with one more specific, the Senator spoke as fol lows "But I desire to be more specific and therefore I further deny, in terms the most absolute anil unqualified which I am capable of uxing, that I ever, either in the month of January, l!H)'J, in the State of Oregon or at any other time or place, unlaw fully or feloniously, or oth erwise conspire with Binger Hermann, then ('omuiiHHioncr of the Land Office, and 8. A. I), l'uter, Horace G. McKin ley, U. W. Tarpley, Emma I Watson, Samuel It. OrniHby, Clark K. Loomis and William II. Davis, or w ith either or any of them, or with any crson or persons, to defraud the United States out of any part cf its public lands longed either in township 11 south, range 7 east, in the State of Oregon, or any other public lands either in the Stiteof Oregon or elHcwhcre. 1 UHsert, furthermore, in the most absolute and unqualified manner, that any and all statements by any jmrson or ersons to the effect that I ever at any time or place entered into a conspiracy with all or any of said persons, or they or any of them, w ith me, to d errand the United States out of any part of its pub lic lands in the State of Oregon or else where, either by false of forged home stead applications, affidavits or proofs are almolutcly, unqualified and atroci ously false, and I defy my detainers and challenge them to produce any evidence made the purchases that the patents to the lands would I Issued in the regular course of business, certainly before the notes she had given tor the borrowed money became due. I'utrr said it would be several months lfore the cases would be reached in the regular order 1 the I -and Office, and that his purpose in calling on him (the Senator) was know if he could aid him in getting them advanced for early consideration The Senator said he told l'uter certainly he would help him in theeventhe foiim the cases in a condition to be taken up, l'uter, the Senator said, replied that h thought the eases had been thoroughly investigated by agents in the field and reiortod on favorably. ."I had not, of course, the slightest suspicion." said Senator Mitchell, "t"at there was anything wrong about th homestead entries or any of them, am: I told Puter I would go up to the Land Office at once and ascertain the status of the cases, and asked him to go along with me. He went with me, first if iv ing me an abstract of a paiier contain' inn a statement of the VI different en tries, the names of the resective entry men, and description of the land In each and the dates of the alleged sales by each to Mr. Watson, together with the amount alleged to have Ih-cii paid by her for each claim." Then the Senator attacked Francis J Ileney, United States District Attorney at Portland in the prosecution of the land fraud rases, accusing him of unpro fessional conduct in the juryrooin and asserting that subsequent to the convic' tiona in the land fraud cases, early in December, and before sentence had been i mooned, Ileney, "engaged with United States District Attorney John II. Hall in representing the government in pnaiecu tion of laid case, entered into an agree' ment with the said S. A. D. Puter, Km ma L. Watson and others included in said conspiracy; by which they offeree clemency or leniency of some kind of character, provided they would, by their evidence, involve myself, Mr. Hermann and others in these frauds." The Senator referred to his long ca reer In the Senate, and said that not un til this time had any charges been made against his integrity, either as a man member of the bar or member of the Senate. It may be thought, he said, by some that he hail violated precedent in coming to the Senate at this time, bat he declared: "I am an innocent man and I have at this stage of the proceed' inn the same right as any other Sena tor to come here in defense of my char acter, which is as dear to me as that of any other Senator on this floor." He trusted and believed the time would come when he could w ith propri ety demand of the Senate a thorough In- vestigation of every one of the charges against him. The Senator said in con clusion : ' "I have been declared by unproved charge! to lie unworthy to remain long er as your associate, and being conscious of the absolute rectitude of my actions and of my innocence of all wrong, I have deemed it not only my right but my duty to myself and to the members of this Senate that I should come here and thus publicly deny all charges which I know to be absolutely false, and also to explain publicly the acts upon my part which I admit and which are now in voked by the prosecuting officer of the government, and by a portion of the public press, as badges of crime." Mr. Mitchell's statement consumed about three quarters of an hour. Toward the close his ' voice was broken and he was compelled to frequently dry his eye ith his handkerchief. Many other Senators were visibly affected. When me senator concluded there was a re newal of handshaking and assurance of confidence on the part of the Senators, while it was necessary for the presiding officer to use the gavel to suppress ap plause in the galleries. When the re- other than that of condomned thieves. forgers and perjurers tosustain any such cT,ion terminated, Mr. Mitchell re charges. 1 lurtiier deny in the most alwolute Downing Object ami unquaiinea lerms mat S.

A. D. Puter that he, on March !, I'.J2,at Washington, D. C, paid me f.1Hin two $1000 bills, as wil fully, maliciously, unqualifiedly and atrociously false. The Senator then said he thought it proper be should state precisely what connections he ever had with Puter and the lands in question and some of the circumstances connected with the ac tions ot the grand jury and the puMica tion in the press regarding the charges He said that alout March I or 2, 1U02, Puter called on him in Wa-hington w ith a letter of introduction from Hon. F. P Mays, a prominent attorney of Portland, Oregon, and for many years the District Attorney for the Oregon District. Puter had with him a woman, whom he intro duced as Mrs. E. L, Watson, a widow and a citizen of Oregon, who had in veiled something over $"0 O in 12 home steads after the entrymen had received their certificates. The woman had ob tained the greater part of this money by mortgaging other lands, secured by notes coming due. She could not raise the money to meet these notes nntil she had received patents for the 12 home steads she had purchased. Puter had acted as agent for the wom an, and she was blaming him, Puter Bit id, as he had assured her when the in Washington county for 30 years, and that there remains a goodly portion of his DM) acres to clear yet. "Still the legislature is about to stop us from burning the logs and stumps just because the e position eople want visitors to see Mount Hood," he said. "If we cannot clear our lands what will the fair do for ns? This country is get ting to lie a good deal like Russia when a man can't clear the logs off his place without first applying: to the county clerk for a permit. I for one will my no need to such a law, and let them ar rest me for burning the trash off mv place if thev feel like It." Telegram. WASHINGTON. J Ritter. RoWt Tannock.
