CASE IN DECEMBER
GOVERNMENT DECIDES TO TRY
HERMANN IN OREGON.
Congressman Will Have to Answer
the Portland Indictments
Before Others.
A Washington spooial to the Oregon
Daily Journal says it has been de
cided by the government to try Con
pressman Hermann first nudor the in
dictments bronght against him in Ore
gon. No spooido date has been set for
the trial, whioh will take place in
Portland, but it is thought by Secre
tary Hitchcock and District Attorney
Franois J. Heuey that the trial will
be set duriug the early part of Decem
ber. It was at first ooutemplated to try
Hormauu in Washington under the in
dictment found against him alleging
destruction of government records.
The local district attorney, however,
has several oases on hand growing out
of the allogod frauds iu the postoffioo,
whioh have precedence, and must 1
heard before Horiuaun's case can be
reached. So it has been decided to
try Hormauu under the Oregon iudict
weivta first.
Attorney Heuey will leave Washing
ton tho latter part of the week for
Portland.
Three iudictuiouta are peuding
against Congressman liiuger Hermann
iu this state. The snddeu decision of
Secretary Hitchcock and tho depart
ment of justice to bring the Oregon
indictments to trial iu advance of that
found iu tho District ot Columbia
will caiwe some surprise, nud it was be
lieved iu many quarters that Her
mann would be tried first at Washing
ton. The three iudiotuiouU pending iu
thisatuto are knowu respectively as
the "Butter creek case," the "Blue
Mountain conspiracy" aud the "117
case." Iu the first named Congress
man Hormauu was iudicted joiutly
with W. W. Steiwer, Franklin Pierce
Mays, Edwin Mays, John II. Hall, C
E. Looiuin, H. H. Heudricks and
others, on the charge of feuciug gov
ernment lands. It is generally sup
posed that this case will not be the
first ouo to bo tried, though District
Attorney Heuey has as yet given no
indication as to the order of trials.
The Blue Mountaiu case is one of
the most famous of all the indict
ments returned iu the course of the
Oregon laud fraud investigations.
Senator John H. Mitohell, Congress
man Hermann, Congressman William
son, State Senator F. P. Mays, Willard
N. Jones and George Sorenson were
iudicted on the charge of conspiring
to defraud the government of 200,000
aores of laud within the boundaries of
the Blue Mountain forest reserve.
The indictment alleges that the fraud
was to be accomplished largely by
moans of fraudulent purchases ' of
state school lands iu Crook, Grant,
Harney, Malheur, Baker, Union,
Umatilla and Wallowa counties, such
lands lying within the boundaries of
the proposed reserve. Incidentally the
case involves the operations of the
ring whioh was robbing the state ot
its school lands by means of forged
applications aud dummy applicants.
The third indictment in which Con
gressman Hermann is named as a de
fendant has to do with the transactions
of the Puter ring in township "11-7,"
and also brings in Puter's famous
story of the paymont of $2,000 to Sen
ator Mitchell for his services in ex
pediting the patenting of fraudulent
claims. The other defendants besides
Hermann are Senator Mitchell, S. A.
D. Puter, Horaoe G. McKinley, Emma
L. Watson, Dau Tarpley, E. K. Brown,
Mrs. Nellie Brown, Henry A. Young,
Frank H. Walgamot, Clark E. Loom is
aud S. B. Oriusby. All of the de
fendants are alleged to have been par
ties to a conspiracy to defraud the
govoruuiout of its lands and the in
dictment sets forth the alleged pay
ment of 3,000 by Puter to Senator
Mitchell at Washington on March 9,
1002.
Under $500 Bonds, v.
Having eutered a plea of not guilty
to the charge of rape said to have
been committed several months ago
upou the young daughter of B. F.
Myrick, Ela Weiuuott, a farm hand,

mitted aud immediately afterwards he
