The sale of a block of 11,000 acres of
swamp hind in Klamath county, by
the Slate Land Board, marks the be
ginning of an enterprise which i ex
pected to add 100,000 acres of the best
kind of pasture laud to the resources
of that section of the states, says a
Salem dispatch in Saturday's Ore-
gouiau. The lu0,000 acres referred to
is iu township 84 south, ran no
east. The tract lies west of Wood
river.betweeu tho Cuscade mouutiaus
and Upper Klamath lake and six miles
soutlwof Fort Klamath.
While tlio tract was sold iu separate
parcels tf not exceeding 820 acres to
0110 purchaser, it is understood that
uuder an association of iuteresta re
clamation work will be conducted on
a larger scale than hits ever been un
dertaken before iu Oregon. Mrs. Jes
sia Ourr Sealo, a daughter of Jesse D.
C'arr, the well known cattleman, is
one of the purchasers and it is under
stood that she will furnish most of
the capital for ihe reclamation work.
For the sale of the land the state
received $1 tier aero, ortfll.OOO. The
purchasers intend to construct a float
ing dredge at au expeiiso of 10,000
aud build dikes and ditches at an ex
pense of ."0,'000, by means of which
the talc marsh will bo drain id to
such an extent, that: it will make
excellent pasture lauds.
The persons who have undertaken
tli is enterprise have beeu working
quietly and intended to acquire the
whole tract. In a measure they were
successful, but it is understood that a
few section were obtained by out
siders. The fact that the purchases
were lining made did not become pub
lic until today. The land lias been
on sale for many years, but no one
has considered ic worth the $1 per acre
which the state charges for jt.
Tho effort to d aiu the swamp is
largely au experiment, hut if it suc
ceeds, the laud will be worth $10 or
more per acre. State Treusurer
Monro, who resided for many years
iu the Klamath lake country, says
that tno drainage of tho tulu swamp
has always been a subject of great in
terest in that section of tho state but
110 one has had much coufldciico iu au
undertaking of that kind. Hecoutly
a steam dredger has been working ou
a ditch on Lower Klamath and after
inspecting tho work of the dredger, he
IK of the opinion that the pcoplo who
have "bought this 11,000 aero tract
may lie ahlo lo drain the swamp.
If they Acoeed, the work will be
extended until 100,000 acres of waste
swamp laud iu that vicinity has beeu
reclaimed, and that achievement
would he ouo of the most important
events in the development of the re
sources of tho Klamath country. If
tho tuU'jprise should Tail, the people
who havu undertaken it, wuuld be out
tho amount of .their investment, for
the land is worthless in its present
slate.
The question to bo tolvcd is whether
a water tight dike can bo constructed
with the material of which the swamp
is composed. If drained, the land
will produce an immense, growth of
grass, and this is greatly needed since
the advance of settlement has reduced
the free cattle range.

SQUASH WEIGHS 125 LBS.
Grown by II. L. Robeitson on
River Bottom Lands.
A 1-') pound squash, ou exhibition
this week at the Courier of lice, has
attracted considerable attention. The
mammoth vegetable was raised by II.
L. Kubcrtsou at his ranch ou Hoguu
river, a few miles from Merlin. The
huge growth was attained without
any, s)icciul care or attention, and.
indeed, it may bo considered that
tho vegetable was given rather a jsior
chance to exhibit its camhllities.
The ground was first planted to car
rots which were makiig so xor a crop
that Mr. Robertson planted the
squashes witli them iu order tiiat he
might not lose thu use of the ground.
The squashes could not ho cultivated
on account of the carrots, yet they
grow and throve Iu a most remarkable
manner and some of them attained
truly astonishing proportions.
It is nothing new for record break
ing vegetables and fruits to bo pro
duced on the bottom lands of Kogue

Tho body of Wm. Dulling a well
known miner of Louse creek, where
ho has been placer mining since the
early 70's, was fuuud on Sunday ueur
his cabiu by R. A. Pierce., who was
hunting cattle iu tho viciuity. Pierce
reported tho discovery to Capt
Gago of the Forest Queen mine aud
the body was found to lie that of Dun
lap. Wheu found ho had beeu dead
for sovonU days and had very evident
ly been murdered. The authorities
were notified aud the body was brought
to Grants Pass where an inquest aud
post mortem examination were held
by Oorouer Kreiuer. Tlio body was
found some little distanco from the
cabin and it appeared that ho wns out
getting wood when lie was shot by
some miscreant, with tho presumable
molivo of robbery. Tho bullet had en
tered tho right breast, passing entire
ly through tho body and coming out
uuder the left arm, inflicting awouud
that must have been immediately fatal.
Tho cabiu was found to be in disorder
as though it had beeu hastily ransack
ed for valuables. No clue to the mur
derer has been found.
Wm. Dunhiti was about 70 years
of ago and had lived continuously on
his placer claim ou Louse creek for
tho past 80 years, only coming to tow u
at intervals to purchaso supplies.
Though he lived entirely alone, he
was a man of thoroughly genial nature
that mads him a favorite with all his
acquaintances. Iu some resjH'ets he
was peculiar and his oldest acquaint
ances havo never known him to accept
a favor from anyone. Ho was
thoroughly generous and always ready
tojielp others and these trails brought
him many proffers of kindnesses in
various ways from his friends, which
were invariably refused. These kind
attempts were always averted with
tact and good humor mid w ithout the
slightest discourtesy. Ho was honest
to tho minutest detail and was iu all
ways a good citizen and thoroughly
honorable man. Tho character of tho
man makes the crime appear unusual
ly dastardly. There are few of his
acquaintances who would not go deep
into their jsickcts for tho purpose of
bringing tho murderer to justice if
thoro was any possibility of that re
sult.
Ilefore coming to Louso oreek, Dun
lap had mined in Montana, Arizona
and Alaska, mid was one of thu first
men who discovered gold ou the
Alaska coast. He served throughout
the civil war iu the Union army but
had never applied for a pension. Iu
his younger days he had been a man
of remarkable strength and activity.
The motive for the murder was tin
doiihtodly robbery. There was an
impression abroad that he had a con
siderable amount of gold hidden about
his cabin, but those who know him
best consider this to be extremely
douhtful. Hn had (U'O in the bank
and this probably represented the
greater part of his fiiuini ial possess
ions. Little is known of his family

MODOCS ARE RETURNING
Remnant of Famous Tribe Corn
Inn Da.ck to Oregon.
A news dispateli on Wednesday from
1 !u x tor Springs, I. T., says:
Tho last gallant remnant of tho
once glorious tribe of Modoo Indians
aro soon to depart for their old homes
iu the lava beds of tho status of California-
and Oregon. For nearly 1)0
years they havo resided on their lit-
tie reservation iu tho Indian Territory
about 10 miles south of this place.
The tribe was at ouo time the
bravest of the Mirave and niudo the
most heroio stand for their liberty
ever madu by any tribe or natlou.
With a small body of chosen warriors
they held at bay thu entire army of
tho United Slates for many weeks.
They killed General Cauby, command
ing the United Status forces, and
killed and wounded more soldiers
than theru were members of their
tribe. They wero finally conquered
and after hanging Captain Jack, their
head chief, and four others, the bal
ance of the trilic, was corralcd on
lands in this territory. Kvery mem
ber was allowed 40 acres of poor land,
and they wero informed this was all
they could expect.
All of thn old historic members of
tho tribe are dead except Princess
Mary, the sister of Captaiu Jack, aud
old Ln Ue-el-tu.uow 103 years old, the
how and arrow maker of the tribe.
Captain Jack, Ktcahmoat Frank, Car
Faced Charlie, Scliack Nasty Jim and
all thu old landmarks of the tribe
havo gone to tho happy hunting
grounds. Their bones repose in a
strange laud tar from their native
risks and hills where their fore
fathers are buried.
(This dispatch errs In the state
ment that thn hones of Captain Jack
and his associates are nqsislug in a

The gentlemen were mot ln Jackson
ville by W. O. Kitto, their superin
tendent in charge of the Oregon Bell
and by him taken to the mine where
they sjient Monthly and part of Tue
sday. Now that the mine ia theirs,
and having '10,000 Invested in it, they
do not propose to let it lie undevelop
ed long, aud it is thior intention this
winter to put in a large qnarta mill,
the power to be electrical aud from the
'Kay dam, if arrangements can be
mudu, and a large force ot men will
be pat at work. The development
work done nuder Bnpt Kitto, has
proven that tho Oregon Bell lias an
imuieuso quarts ledge of high grade
ore and as it is easily miued and in a
location convenient to transportation,
the mine should become one of the
most profitable in Southern Oregon.
