. The purchasing of the Danish
Vert ladlea by the United States
' tOTeroment.lt bringing Into the pos
teesion of the American government
a group of Islands that by rights
should be a part (of thla country.
When Columbus vat oat upon bit
great voyage of discovery be first set
foot upon one of these fertile Isles
of the Atlantic days "before the con
tinent Itself was discovered by him.
Today the Islands are largely peopled
by the tame kind of Inhabitants that
Christopher found there, the breech
clouted native Indians comprising the
large part of the population. The
white Inhabitants are largely fore
men in charge of sugar plantations,
plantation owners and merchants,
S2.870 people in the three islands
being mostly West Indiaa negroes.
The chief industry of the group Is
the making of cane sugar.
The placing of thousands of acres
of lands upon the markets in south
ern Oregon will have a wonderful
Influence upon Industrial conditions
here. These lands will support many
families, for they can not, under the
homestead laws, be held only for
speculation as the railroad company
has been holding them for the past
40 years. The agricultural lands
will at once be developed and will en
ter the producing class, adding to the
wealth of the community. The en
tering upon these many homestead
tracts will bring hundreds of new
families to the district:
Water is now being pumped Into
the Fmitdale ditch, and the crops in
that district are being given their
much-needed Irrigation. Meantime
the pump for the north side ditch is
again out of commission, but the
most of the' beets under that 'ditch
have had some water, and repair of
the. pump , will await the shutting
down' of the Fruitdale pump, as the
intake for each is from the same
penstock at the dam.

tiful woman of society, the other a
little Canadian backwoods girl was

Sister St. Celestlne, mother supe
rior of the Mlsercordla hospital,

ness. Talking In a low voice directly
to Judge Landls, she told of Mrs.
Matters' visit to the hospital last
July.
"She said the had to adopt a child.
Her husband was wealthy, she told
me, but they had no children,' said
Sister St. Celestlne. "She aatd she
wanted It to appear aa though the
child waa really her own. She did
not want her husband to know the
truth."
The sister then told of how a baby
born to "Margaret Ryan" her real
name is not given for obvious rea
sons was taken to the room of Mrs.
Matters and an operation performed
upon the woman.
"Miss Ryan" was told the baby
died.
Both Mrs. Matters and "Mar
garet" broke down and sobbed. -
Slater St. Celestlne waa followed
on the stand by Sister Mary, also of
Mlaercordla hospital. Her testimony
was a corroboration of the mother
superior's.
