Government Seeks to Recover Land. Portland Suit to recover lands granted the Oregon & California Railroad Company (now the South ern Pacific Company), and valued at more than $40,000,000, began last wemk, when B. D. TownBend, special ansistatt to the Attorney-Oeneral, filed a complulnt with the Federal Court. This uctlon, which has been in contemplation for several years, and which received an impetus when the Oregon Legislature of 1(07 sent a memorial to Congress, will be the most Important legal battle ever pre cipitated In the Pacific Northwest. More than a year of preliminary preparation has been consumed, and with the 01lng of the complaint the Government has fortified Its ease to the smallest detail. The case will be bitterly fought by the railroad corporation, for the lands Involved represent some of the bent timber on the Paclflo Coast, If not In the world. While a conserva tive estimate placeis the amount In volved at $40,000,000, the actual value of the land and timber Is much greater. The suit will eventually go to the United State Supreme Court before the railroads will stop fighting for this Midas territory. Woman I'scs flun. Grants Pbbb Ella Williams, daughter of J. L.
