O regon's Convict Labor G oes to the About •1 0,0 00 Paid on School Land
Lost to Buyer.
Stove Foundry People.
Salem — An agreement has been
reached between Governor Chamberlain
and the Loewenberg-Going company for
tbe leasing of convict labor at the peni
tentiary for a period of two years. The
price to be paid for labor is the same
it s^r-
that has prevailed in the past, but
eral changes have been made in the
contract in other particulars.
Because there is a popular desire
that convicts be employed on the pub
lic roads, in which desire Governor
Chamberlain joins, and because the
last legislature authorised the appoint
ment of a commission to investigate
the subject and report to the next legis
lature, the governor refused to make a
contract now for the leasing of convict
labor for more than two years. In
sistence upon the shorter period made
it impossible to secure a higher price
than has been paid in the past— 3)4
cents per hour for each man.
The new contract requires the stove
foundry proprietors to employ not less
than 150 men a day, whereas the min
imum number heretofore has been 100.
There are now 390 prisoners in the
penitentiary. About 100 of these are
employed on the farm, in the stables,
in the kitchen, and on other work con
nected with the management of the in
stitution. This leaves 290 to be other
wise employed. The foundry w ill now
take not less than 150, leaving 140 out
of employment.
A t many times the
foundry w ill employ more than 150,
but this number must be paid for, even
though not worked.
What to do with the 140 idle men it
now the problem.
A lew of them can
be employed on the public roads near
Salem under a co-operative arrange
ment with the county court, and a
gang w ill be put at work grubbing out
a piece of state land on the Reform
school iarm.
This w ill still li
some idle, probably, at many times of
the year.
Salem— Certificates of sale for a tots
of 20,000 acres of state school land
have been cancelled in the last few
weeks, because of lapse in the payment
of installments within the required
time. Of this aggregate amount of
land, 7,000 acres is in the lim its ot
the proposed Blue mountain forest re
serve, and, according to the rulings of
the Interior department, the state w il
be able to use the land as base for the
selection of lieu land.
Tbe original purchasers of the land
have forfeited the payments made,
amounting probably to $10,000 or
more, and the state has the land to
sell again. Much of the land outside
the reserve w ill probably not be salable
for some time, as the state has raised
the price to $2.50 an acre. The 7,000
acres inside the reserve should find
market as base for lieu land, at $5 an
acre.
A large proportion of the certifiatee
that have been canceled were among
those secured by violation of the law
governing the purchase of state school
land. Prosecution of land fraud cases
has scared many of the holders of cer
tificates fraudulently obtained, anc
they have thought best quietly to drop
the whole transaction, forfeit what
they have paid and let the state keep
the land.
New Orleans Will Show President Its
Terrors A re Past.
New Orleans, Oct. 9.— Yellow fever
report to 6 p. m .: New cases, 29;
total 3,176; deaths, 3; total 410,; new
foci, 8; under treatment 207; dis
charged, 2,659.
A t the close of the eleventh week of
the struggle against yellow fever, the
health authorities summed up the sit
uation tonight as full of encourage
ment. Today’s new cases in the city
were all in the old sone of infection
and most of them are of an extremely
m ild type.
Sentiment in favor of some character
of national quarantine is apparently
growing here and elsewhere in the
state.
Arrangements for tbe president’s re
ception and entertainment are progress
ing, and every effort is to be made
while he !S here to convince him that
in New Orleans fear of the fever has
entirely passed. The route of the pro-
ceeaion to the city ball w ill carry him
past the Lee monument, on the im
mense circular mound on which there
w ill be gathered several thousand
school children armed with American
flags to give a patriotic greeting. The
streets through which the president is
to be escorted are to be decorated on a
lavish scale.

WEAK CASE OF TIE RAIUOAIS
Measure Passed by Last House Was
Intended to C orrect F rror
in Form ar Law.
Washington, Oct. 7.— Represen tat
Townsend, ot Michigan, joint author of
the Esch-Townsend railroad rate b ill
that passed the house of representatives
last winter, and who w ill reintroduce
substantially the same bill and lead the
fight for its passage at the coming ses
sion, after a conference with the presi
dent today said:
"O ne pf the first subjects, if not the
first, which the president w ill discuss
in his annual message w ill be railroad
freight rates.’ ’
Mr. Townsend says he w ill not make
any material change in his biir, and it
is bis understanding that the president
approves its general features and would
be satisfied if it should become law.
" W e had but one idea in framing
that b ill," said Mr. Townsend, "and
that was .to correct an omission in t ~e
original law for regulation of railroads.
Acooriing to the law, the commission
could not make an order which would
remedy an evil condition or any unjust
condition that was found to exist.
It
actually exercised that power for a
number of years, but 'i t was finally
determined that it did not bave the
power. I t was to give the commission
that power that the house of represent
atives passed its bill last winter.
The
rest of the bill merely furnished ma
chinery for expediting hearings and for .
carrying out the essential provisions of
the bill, which was to fix a reasonable
rate when a rate was found to h i un
reasonable. No statement that I hate
seen in opposition to this legislation
since congress adjourned has modified
my view as to the wisdom of adopting
this course."
