of Harmon Snider, who disappeared
from the cabin of E. P. Bayshaw near
Perdue on the 10th of last June, were

a decision to the effect that a largo j
area of alleged mineral lands in Sho
shone is nonmiueral. The case is that
of the Northern Pacific Railroad pro
testing against the classification of
mineral lands mado 'by the Mineral
Land Commission. A great part of it
has been considered mineral in char
acter for the past 10 years, and many
mineral claims of worth have been
located in the district, but this decis
ion of the Land Office, unless rever
sed, will invalidate all mining loca
tions that have been made on odd
numbered sections. The decision has
caused a sensation, and indignation is
rife.
The territory affected by the decis
ion consists of 27 townships, contain
ing an area of more than 30 square
miles or 35,000 acres, lying south of
Wallaco in the Coonr d'Alene mining
region. The lauds were classified as
mineral by a commission composed of
Ex-Goveruor Black, of Utah; Colonel
Ryan, of Rathdrum, aud State Sena

district for that purposo ill 18W), 1900

ern Pacific Company's protest was
held at Coeur .d'Alene last December,
and Uuited States District Attorney
Cozier, of Moscow, apjieared 011 bo
Imlf of the Government. It is alleged
that Cozier agreed to Hie evidence
produced by the railroad comiauy
without attempting to protest, and
that the three years' work of the
Uoverumont Land Commission was re
versed by witnesses of tho railroad,
compelled to purchase the same from
the railroad coin 1 any or forfeit their

HE WILL GROW WALNUTS
Je.ckson County M&n Thinks It
Can Be Made a Success.
J. H. Downing of Central Point,
was in Jacksonville Thursday seeking
information as to the feasibility of
growing English walnuts for tho niar
Eot, He called on Mr. Britt and Judgo
Hanua who each have fine walunt
trees In their yards that are bearing,
to learn whether tho trees bore
regularly or not aud if tho nuts rijicu
perfectly. Mr. Britt's tree, which
is tho oldest in Jacksonville, has
borne nuts for several years that aro
of flue quality and in abuudauce each
season. Judge Haunn's trees aro seed
lings from nuts from Mr. Britt's tree
aud they commenced hearing at seven
years. Mr. Downing has 20 acres of
hill laud north of Jacksonville that
he is pinning to set to walnuts aud
cherries. One of the reasons for his
selecting these trees is that neither
require spraying aud ho does not wish
trees for which he has to wago a
ceaseless warfare with the insect
pests in order to secure a erop. Mr.
Downing' venture will be the first
walnut orchard in Rogue river valley
and tho success of it will ho watched
with interest by others who have hill
laud that is not first class farming

Father Desiuarais, 0110 of the best
known Cntholio priests of Oregon,
formerly of Jacksonville and Ashlnud,
was arrested and confined iu jail ut
Baker City, Saturday afternoon for
forcibly resisting a deputy sheriff who
was attempting to serve a writ of
ejectment. Desmarals was transfer
red from Baker City to Tho Dalles
some time ago by Bishop O'lUley, but
refused to go. lie maintained posses
siou of the parish house till it became
uecesary to institute a suit to oust
him. His demented sistor was later
arrested and held on a chargo of in
sanity. Desuiarais was released dur
ing tho ateruoon with tho understand
ing that ho would take his sister and
go east. Bishop O'Riley has sus
pended tho minister uutil he slmll
fully submit to tho authority of the
church.
The spectacular arrest of Father
Desinaruis, a Cntholio priest, hero
Sulurdny, continues tho main topic in
Baker City. It has transpired that
Deputy Sheriff Hemplo, who accom
panied Bishop O'Riley and two
priests, and who forcibly ejected
Dcsmarais, wero not armed with the
legal authority. No suit, civil or
criminal, had been filed, nor had any
warrant been issued.
Tho eject lou of tho priest and to
take Kisscssioii of tho parish homo
was tho object in view.
Desmurais aud his demented sister
were promptly released from the
county jail when tho true state of
facts became known. Desmarals has
emnlnved counsel and will institute
snit for heavy damages against Bishop
() lu ley anil tho other participants in
tho alleged outrage.

Everything now points to au extreme
ly listless presidential ranqiaigu
next year if tho predictions of the
New York Herald, which has boon
giving tho iimlter some eptVinl at
tention, aro to bo relied on. If for
110 other reason, tho content would
luck Iu first rate iinmrtnnrn because
of tho extent of tho rephullcau mast
ery of the Scnuto which could not by
any re"oiiuhlo possibility bo overcome
during tho next presidential term.
A democratic president could do
nothing without Home republican
supiHirt. Mr. Ilryan could Le electod
and no free silver bill passed. Mr.
Cleveland could bo elected and there
need bu no tariff revision except on
republican lines. In these circum
stances the democrat could not hope
to accomplish much by winning the
pretliU'iicy j. nor would tho republicans
as far as organic result are concerned,
loan much. Either nido would have
the patronage, to tho event of success,
but tho American public can nover be
aroused to u very high pitch of excite
ment over which two acta 'of ofllco
holder shall fill tlm places. The
house of rcircscntative, a new body
each two year, might bo carried by
the npiKisition. In fact, tho democrats
can hardly elei-t a president without
carrying enough of tho country to
give (hem tlm house.
Tlm Semite, contains Ij7 re nib licnim
and Sit democrats. One-third of tho
senate, or '10 inenilsir, aro already
elected for terms which do not end
until March !), ItlllU. Of these I H are
republican and i) are democrats. Of
those whoso terms expiru two year
earlier, HI aro republican and 14
democrats. Of those whose term ex
pire with '.ho present administration,
M aril republican ami seven are
democrats. If the democrat should
begin at once to curry every stale
that they stood any chance of carry
lug in thn party' best (lay, they
could not recover tho aenate before
the expiration nf the next presidential
term.
Nor Is this outlook without prncti
cut effects. It I commonly remarked
that the stock market will continue
low until the presidential election has
been safely passed. Hut there run be
nil legislation before I'.srtl iu the senate
affecting railroad or finuuical interests
which lbs not secure considerable re
publican HUpjHirt, and the republican
party may ho counted on to not wan
tier far from the desire of tlm domi
limit commercial force. Iu case the
rcpubl leans put a plank III their next
platform culling for a revision of the
tariff by "its friends" it might
the part of wisdom for those who
have any ronlldence In such revision
to give them support, since revision

A dispatch from Eureka, CaL, to
the Examiuer, under date of the 18tb
sa)-:
All timber claim la thU district
laud office, in fact, all inoh claims la
this state, Washington and Oregon,
have been saapouded daring the past
year by force of the recent interpre
tation put on the word "apecwlation"
by the Interior Department The act
which was passed in 18" 8, prohibits
lairuauU from filing timber claims
for "speculation," and confines the
use or the timber ana land to tne
exclusive use and benefit" of the
laimaut. ' "
Until August last the intention of
the claimant to sell his timber even
tually waa not construed a "specula
tion, " and lnoe the adoption of the
law 23 years ago, all such olalms have
been patented without question, al
though a future sale might be con
templated. In August last a ruling
was made in a case at the Suaanvlllo
office which held that if the claimant
id any intention of selling, or if he
did uot testify that he could use the
timber for his own benefit, the claim
was void and the money paid on it
forfeited to the department. Bince
that time all claims in the Coast
.State have been suspended and will
bu cancelled If this ruling is adopted,
for no claimant can possibly use the
timber anil land for "his own exolus-
ve use and benefit," aa the ruling
holds, unless he runs a lumber yard.
This ruling has tied up 680 such
laims iu this district alone with
about $:250,000 in payments, which
Is llablo to be forfeited to the depart
ment. In the three Coast states there
are over 8,000 such claims suspeuded,
with J,.VM),000 iuvolved and 800,000
acres of valuable land which is very
likely to be taken from the local
olaimaut and made subject to " lieu
land scrip" entry.
The claimant made their filings in
tlm usual mauuer, which, uutil this
arbitrary interpretation of the word
'sKico latum" has been held satisfac
tory by all previous secretaries of the
interior. They have not been guilty
of fraud nor perjury, yet, according
to this ruliug, they are virtually pro
nounced cheaters and liars.
