Want Their Money , -
1 MeEvoy Bros., of the Chicago Store,
je.iterd.-iy commenced suit against Mrs.
George Griswold for some $30, for a bill
of goods, and they also proceeded to
garnishee the mqney of . Mrs. Griswold
in the Salem State Bank. The same
action will probably be taken by Bos
tcis k Greenbaum" and C. T. Pomeroy,
where Mrs. Oriswordvmade purchases.
She asked in each case that the goods
be eharged to Mr. Griswold, though she
was on the eve of her departure for
Pendleton, and an agreement had been
made for separation. She was iormerly
Mrs. Mabel Atkins and was married
: to Mr. Grswold about two months ago.
.She deceived $1000 from him a few days
ago, as a condition for going and re
maining away, and it is supposed that
hj had deposited with the Salem State
Bank $950 'of this when she left, but
intending:! to draw it out upon her ar
rival atrPendleton. Five hundred dol
lars a month is a pretty fair wage for
domestic service, but Mr. Griswold does
not seem to be grieving over the pay
ment of the money, carrying' with it
the provision that he was to be rid of
his whilom better half.

Offldal Can Is Out for the Convention
of the State Development' League
? Delegates Representative of Entire
State to Be in Attendance.
Great plans, and preparations are be
ing made for the big Oregon Develop
ment league convention. Which will be
held in Portland on j Wednesday and
Thursday, April 26 and 27, and it ia
predicted ;t hat . it will ; SUnd r- as the
greatest preliminary event in the " f n
ture history of , the development of the
industries- and i resources of the 'state.
Upon this occasion all sectionalism will
be blotted entirely out and the dele
gates from all parts of the state, which
will . be representative, will work in
perfect harmony and put their shoul
ders to the wheel in the struggle for
the accomplishment of the objects of
the organization-the buildinor op of

in the state, as well as to the mayors
of the different towns and cities and
the commissioners of the several, coun
ties. One of the objects of the reeent
Willamette Valley Development League
convention held in this city last month
was the election of a set of delegates-,
at-large to represent i the valley towns
at the state convention, but, as the
Portland convention which was to have
been held on April 4 and 5, was post
poned indefinitely on account of the
failure to make arrangement for satis
factory rates with the railroads, this
matter (was passed up by the valley
convention. This matter may be at
tended to, however, at will by the offi
cers of the valley league, and, in the
absence of the president, it may be
done by either the vice president or
secretary.
It is quite probable that Mayor Wa
ters, County Judge Scott and the coun
ty commissioners, as the court, and the
president of the Greater Salem Commer
cial Clnb will annoonce the appoint
ment of their respective delegations in
the near future. Tbe following, is the

HALF A BILLION
ENORMOUS ACREAGE OF PUBLIC
- LANDS SAID TO HAVE BEEN
- MISAPPEOPEIATED. -,
Goes Into Hand of Private or Corporate
Holdings for Other Purposes Than
' nome-Buildlng All This During the
Past Must Now Be Changed. .
It has , been estimated from official
reports, and eompliatloas that at least
I tional machinery, there may have been
some excuse for oisoeing of them in
large tracts, but ft rapidly growing sen
timent soon indicated the advisability
of securing-a permanent population on
all 'lands disposed of, finally, culminat
ing in the passage ot the homestead
act. . .,v -: - -. .
While the operation of this general
policy has been to satisfactorily settle
k tin mne.h of - the 17mtel Ktates. atom?
i je re-possessed of this great area ae-
j quired largely for speculative purposes,
what a safety valve It would form to
day against the dangers of .centraliza
tion in the east with which we are com
ing face to face. There is little nse,
however, in theorizing upon what might
have been. ' It is worth while, though,
to nay some attention to, the remaining
half billion acres of the public domain
source, and holding it -until it is want
ed, for actual settlement, if not now,
ten or twenty or thirty years, may be.
The strong sentiment which is impa
tient of delay in the government's dis
posal of its lands and desires to see it
put into private hands as rapidly as
possible, comes mostly from an interest
ed class which is pecuniarily benefitting
by this policy.
If the plans which the government
is now vigorously ' pushing, including
the irrigation of the seventy oid million
acres of land susceptible of that devel
opment and the regeneration of even n
greater amount of arid and semi-arid
lands which can not be irrigated,
through the introduction of desert
plants from the ,old world and "dry
land" methods of agriculture, are al
and to put a stop to the present prac
tice of squandering this national rc
lowed to proceed, and. the lands mean
while held against speculation, oppor
tunities for homemaking by millions of
people will be created in the west where
there is now only waste desert or but
scant forage growth supporting wsnder-
mg herds of cattle and. sheep. j
The time will come, possible sooner
than the country imagines in ts pres-
ent headlorag race after money, , when
such an agricultural population, firmly
rooted tothe fertile "western acres, will
be a welcome sheet anchor to the na
tion.1
That the western railroads are recog
nizing the advisability' of stimulating !
settlement and agricultural production
alone their lines in order to increase
their traffic isyevideneed by several sig
nifieant moves which have been made
during the year, "radically different
from the methods heretofore practiced
by all transcontinental roads of dispos
ing of their lanze land holdings in .the
most rapid manner possible without re
gard to the, size of the tracts sold or
whether settlement is to follow or not.
One of tbe big lines is considering the
advisability of providing a- homestead
for all its employes, limiting disposals
to small tracts and requiring actual
settlement and improvement. The Bur
lington system has been' condncting a
series of farm experiments and estab
lishinig model farms, under the so-called
Campbell soil culture system, in the
semi-arid region, which have already
demonstrated that lands heretofore sup
posed to be fit only for grazing, are ca
pable' of intensive agriculture. The
Union Pacific and Santa Fe lines have
also recently followed this lead and
taken up the snbjeet and it is expected
that they will carryinto operation sim
ilar projects for the, development of
their tributary country.
Our present system of national edu
cation takes little if any account of
practical agriculture, yet the successful
farmer of today, as is coming to'be
more and more generally recognized,
must possess come technical knowledge
of his business, more than hie father or
bis grandfather knew. Tbe keen eom-J
petition which has Invaded farming as i
well as commercial occupations makes
imperative the introduction into oar ed
ucational system of practical farm stu
dies if American farmers are to main
tain their supremacy in competition
with other classes, or if American ag
riculture is to continue to lead the
world.
