An Oregoniatt jorreepottdtni Thurs
day says!
A new question arose In the state
ItVtttl fraud situation today, when Thos.
X. Strong, of Portland, appeared bo
for the stal land) board with 15
forged eertlHeotos of sale, hold by tho
Fenwoodl Luutbor Co- of Waueau, Wis.
The comjuwy seeuro! these certificates
from S. A. D. Puter, a collateral for a
loan of about $0OO. The eertlflcntes
were duplicates of originals which nre
stilt outotamllng, ami in the hands of
persons unknown- to the state land of
floials.
Tho atrange and unusual features of
this latest bunch of forged certificates
is that Puter made payments upon the
certificates ami soeured genuine re
eeipta from ike slate land office. In the
other inetaueea ko forged reeeipts to
show that tho money bad been paid.
The question that a riots Is. To whom
should tho state land board repay the
moftey paid upon tho forged eertlA
eateei Tho boartl does not want ie re
pay it to Puter, ami will not do so un
i it must. Mr. Strong argues that,
since iho paymts were mad upon
iho eerriHoato which his eMeai hold,
ami upon which they have lost money,
hho mouoy should be repaid to thorn.
Tho original oortlnoatos of which
theoe aro duplicates, were Issued to the
following named' persona, some of whom
are k-nowu to bo residonta of Port la ml:
Harry Merkie, Thomas 11. Coole, J. 11.
Osmum), A. It, Cooley, Al. I). Mackeu
ale, John Joaos, Jack Powers, K, J.
Wise, B. V, Murry, Minnie It. Parker.
Mios A. C, Smith, Mm. 0. H. Brown.
OMo ICacki, It. Board.
Thoa forgod oortlfloatea purport to
bo natdgaad to one D. It. MvirpWy, the
aaalgnmenU iMilag oxoouted by P. II.
"ard, who aoiodi as notary for Putr
ia many mtlaueos. By Murphy these
forged eerUfloatea wore awlgaod to the
Psitweod liumbor Company', la Itameoy
eouaty, Mlnaosota, Um aigumoat bo
lag mad- bofore Wehard A. Walsh as
notary. Tho wkneonw war J, A. ftwoa
sow sad R, A. Walsh. The arguments
woro mads July Si, 1WM. ,
Tho thoory of tho stato land boatd
la that K, D. Murphj la a noUkui per
aoa, hho aamo aa II, IT. Bigg, who waa
the motM urn through whom many forgod
oortinoales pasisd. 8Uto Iand Agaat

purpoao of thoao dsjala, rsprasowtlag
thnw moa to bo elioaU of bis. By so
