On the 16th of, this month the Supreme Court of the State of Oregon rendered a decision giving to every settler a deed to their land. Mr. Morrow crossed the nlains in ' 18A4. with Tom Uoram's train of ox teams, exneriencing much annoyance f the things that money can not I buy.

He is a roan of sturdy, tire less energy, noright and unassuming, though firm and txrsistent in his con sciousness of right. He has worked hard and sacrificed much in the inter ests of his fellow citizens, particularly those of Warner Valley. Oregon, and is generally regarded by the Dublic as one of the country's greatest bene factors. Owing mainlv to his strenuous efforts 6000 acres of land, worth about $50 oer acre, has been successfully settled and cultivated bv a nubroer of oroa nerous families, desoite the efforts of the Warner Vallev Stock Comoanv to convert this rich agricultural land into a stock range. In 1860 an act of Congress ornviding that all "swamo and overflowed land" should become the orooertv of the state was aDclied to Oregon. t In 1870 the Oregon legislature auth orized the sale of these lands, where- uoon an anolication. was made for the ourchase of the alleged swamD lands of Warner Vallev. It was not until 1884. however, that a certificate of sale, under different aoolicationg. was secured, and in 1892 the Warner Vallev Stock Comrjanv got possegssion of these lands. In the meantime a few settlers had come to the vallev. but owing to the difficulty of securing a title a vigorous attempt at settlement was not made until 1335. It was this vear that Mr. Morrow, after a previous visit brought his family to the vallev and took ud the ranch on which be now lives. He at once placed himself at the head of the settlers, exhorting them to retain and improve the lands they had taken ud. Irrigation was necessary to make the land productive, and ditches were constructed and cultivation begun. In 1892 the Warner Valley Stock com pany secured possesssion of the land, and in 1892 Mr. Morrow lost a suit in the general land office. He, however, continued to press the land, and in 1892 Mr. Morrow lost a campaign against the stock company, with the result that in the celebrsted case of J. L. Morrow against the Warner Valley Stock Com pany in 1899 the settlers won a com plete victorv in the local land office. But this decision was reversed the fol lowing vear bv the general land office. In 1904 Mr. Morrow caused Governor Chamberlain to become interested. The State of Oregon then took the side of the settlers, bringing suit against the stock company. The last decision, however, in 1908. was adverse to the interests of the settlers. Mr. Morrow is now 70 years old. He has made three trips to Washington. D. C. and several to the Oregon state capitol. JC' RESTOCKING STATE WITIIJPIIEASANTS Three-Year Contract En tered Into With Gene M . Simpson For the miroose of restocking the state with Reeves' and China ihea 1 snta. tha State Fish and On me com- mission ha made a three-vear contract j with Gene M. Simpson. Corva'.lis. Ore ' son. whereby Mr. Simmon will give his t exclusive services to the state, as well , as the use of hit excellent equipped farm. Simpson's success In the rearing ; of wild game birds guarantees the ! state against any possible loss. The rearing of wild game birds sug gests a industry that is practically un known. Raising pheasants is no more difficult than raising poultry vet it is far more profitable. In the same measure that eveiv one fails to succeed in the latter will the facts demonstrate the former. There is a wide market for pheasants, and the demand origin ates in all parts of the United States. Under the Oregon law. pheasant raised in captivity, whose wings have been pinioned before thev are able to fly. may be sold directly to the consum er, providing permit to shin alive is secured from the state game warden. This law is definitely set forth in sec tion 2325. Lord's Oregon Laws, which is a provision exception to section 2304. The recent fusa over serving China pheasants at thtt presidential banauet in Portland. October 11. aroso over the failure of the newspaper writers to read the whole law. Thev based their objections upon a part of the law. The statutes would not have been over ridden, had the pheasants been served as a plain reading of the law provides. Such a law is a greater protection to pheasants than if no such law were on the books. It is unlawful to sell birds during the open season, only during the closed, which enables the game warden to keep a perfect record of every bird shipped in the state. It encourages the rearing of the birds, which is a benefit. In other word?, an industry of considerable proportions is thereby created. The state ia will ing to co-operate wit those who wish to raise pheasants, even providing the eggs, instruction as to the rearing and personal attention when required. Reeves' pheasants bring S25 for a trio, consisting of one male and two hens. China pheasants readily sell for $2.50 for cocks and from $3.00 to $4.00 for females. STATE LINETOWN FIRE Concluded from Brut piige. Mr. Boone stated that be bad not only received a much better patronage than he anticipated but the people had given him a warm personal welcome, and tbat menv had stated that his loss was their loss, for thev felt that he was one of them. Mr. Boone onlv left Lakeviec? a little more than a month ago. and while we deeply sympathize with all our neighbors over their loss, yet there is a feeling that an All-Wise Providence might have treated Mr. Boone with a little more lienencv. E. A. Pridav. of the Warner Valley Mercantile Co.. came over from Plush Monday to ascertain the facts concern ing the loss bis company sustained in the New Pine Creek fire. On reaching Lakeview he was met by Pete Cald well, the driver of the outfit, who in formed him of the loss sustained and that six of the tine horses composing the team and two wagons were des troyed bv fire, nothing being left but one trail wagon and two horses. While the loss is keenly felt, yet Mr. Friday is congratulating himself over the fact that aside from the 35 sacks of sugar, a ton of coal and a few otner small items that were on the wauons that were burned, his company has all its winter freight in. As a consequence no attempt will be made at present to rig up another freight outfit. Tom Sullivan, of Plush, had nearly $1000 worth of merchandise on the wagons, all oi which was burned. Low Rate On Ore Bidweil Nugget. : Through a pri vate communication from N. E. Guvot. who is now at Red Bluff, California we learn that he has been Ijubv with the railroad company securing rates on the ores of the Hoag Mining district. The rate secured on the N.-C. 0.( Is $2.50 per ton in caroud lots to Reno. Nevada. From there to Salt Lake smelters the rate offered by the South ern Pacific Company is $7.25 per ton carload lots, making a total of $9.75 per ton laid down at the smelters in Salt Lake City. This it would appear to u would be worth considering by the mining in terest" of the HnHfj district nn there is an abundance ot ore in ibis district tbat assay testa show values run to and in excess of $100 per ton.

Although he struck the water as he left the shin he managed to rvach shore. i The Associated Press sent out the following report of the accident caus ing his death : Macon. Ga.. Oct. 15.- Eugene Ely. aviator, met death at the atate fair grounds this afternoon when hia ma chine failed to rise from a sensational dip and plunged with him fifty feet to! the ground. He fell In the field of the race track, after almost clearing the machine bv" a desperate leap when he realized bis peril. Bonea were broken in a score of places. Elv died a few minutes later, regaining consciousness iyst before the end long enough to murmur: "I lost control I know I am going to die." Elv made a flight this morning, as cending 3100 feet. At 2:45 o'clock he began his second flight, rising gracefully from the track enclosure which he circled at the rate ot 30 miles an hour. As he was com pleting the circuit he made a din. seem ingly to startle the thousands beneath him. The machine shot down with tre mendous velocity and the crowd ap plauded, thinking the aviator would rise, as he had done many times be fore. But Elv seemed to lose his grip on the lever and the machine continued its downward plunge. He attempted to rise fr im his seat. Releasing the lever altogether, he bait jumped, bare ly clearing the monoplane as it crashed to the ground. The machine was de molished, and Elv struck with terrific force. He died shortly after reaching the hospital. Elv. a native of Iowa, left his wife in New York two weeks ago. to come to Macon, to give a series of flights for the state fair. He had been giv ing spectacular flights here for eight days, going up on one occasion in a rainstorm. Today Elv offered to make a flight bv night, painting his craft with phos phorus, "so as to startle the natives" he told the fair directors. The offer was declined because he wanted a thousand dollars. Before making his ascent this after noon. Elv told his attendants he feared something would happen.
