FORRESTERS AFTER
OLMSTEAD'S SCALP
Owen L. Jones Wants Court to Remove
Him From Office.

An action was commenced in the dis
tflct court yesterday, the object of which
is the ousting of S. C. Olmstead from his
tional executive council and the special
office of supreme councillor of the United
Order of ForesteTs. The suit is brought
by Owen L. Jones, of st. Paul against
the United Order of Foresters.
The complaint charges conspiracy to
defraud the order throughout the United
States and operate it in the personal in
terests of the national executive council
of which Olmstead is one of the four
members 1t is charged that the members
OF this council have so arranged matters
tnat they can perpetuate themselves in
once, and that the funds of the order
are practically at their disposal for in
issue an injunction preventing the al
legged fraud to continue. to force the ex-
ecut1Ve council to observe the authorized
bylaws and rules of the order, and to
Dust ,; Z. Olmstead as member of the
council.
The complaint states that although Mr.
Olmstead has ben OuSted from Court. of
insists upon attending it's meetings, and
has twice had to be elected from the
hall; that the local treasurer continues to
accept the fees of Olmstead as a For
ester, and that he should be enjoined from
so doing.
It is also asserted that, in order to vim
dicate Mr.. OlnStead, his friends in the
executive council have assumed jurisdic-
ton in an appeal of his case. and the
court is asked to restrain the council from
farther assumption of such unauthorized
rights.

PLENTY OF GOLD.

Many prominent Minnesotans are
financially interested in the gold fields
or eastern OregOn-a gold country that
IS rapidly coming to the front among
the producing sections of the
country" said l.. G. Dillman, when
seen at the West hotel by a Times
representative yesterday. Mr.. Dillman
is one of New York's we'll known finan-
c1ers and has played a prominent part
IN promoting and developing the rich
and extensive gold fields in eastern
Oregon.
These gold Lodges in Oregon" con-
tlnued Mr.. Dillman, promise to be the
richest in North America if not in the
world, and / predict an almost un-
precedented output in the near future.
Minnesota people have taken advan-
tage of the opportunities and now have
a controlling interest in some of the
biggest gold claims in Oregon
Through the efforts Of Mr.. Dillman
forty-four gold properties, embracing
nearly 1000 acres, have been consoli-
dated under the, name of the "Mon-
arch Mines Co., Ltd" and the devel-
opment Of this big property is now
going on.
The company offers to allow any pur-
chaser of a block of five thousand
shares the privilege of having the stock
and money deposited in any bank in
this city in escrow, until the snow is
off the ground in the spring. when
transportation will be furnished said
party to the mines, and if the property
is not found to be as represented, the
money deposited in escrow may be
withdrawn and sale cancelled; but if
found to be as represented, parties are
to pay their own expenses and take the
stock.
Minnesota people have a controlling
interest in the stock, and few blocks
of 1t are now on the market. Edwin
Clark, who has been Minnesota resi-
dent since 1857, is fiscal agent of the
company, with offices at 920-922 Guar

DITCHES INCREASE
VALUE OF THE LAND
Drainage Engineer Ralph Submits Report
of Work Done.

Engineer George A. Ralph. who for
the past two years has been in charge
of the construction of drainage bitches
IN the northern portion of the state, has
submitted a detailed report of the work
to the governor.
The legislature appropriated $50 900 for
the work two years ago, and since that
time nine bitches have been built. The
total length of bitches is 36.6 miles, which
cost $44 956.18 These bitches drain SS. :
600 acres of agricultural lands, the in
creased productive power Of which will
amount to $24S, 000 The benefit to state
lands will amount to $94, 600.
Mr.. Ralphs report is accompanied by
one from the state drainage commission
which raises the figures of the increased
valuation to considerable degree
The report states that Mr. Ralph has
been entirely too conservative in this re-
sepct. Accoring to the commission, the
increased valuation. instead of being So
an acre, is nearer SO. Before the bitches
We're constructed the appraised value of
the lands was $5 an acre, and Mr.. Ralph
in his report states that they are now
worth $S The report of the commission
cites several instances where drained
lands have been disposed of for $14 an
acre, and the increased valuation to the
state is estimated at $330.00O.

JAMES HOGAN IS
FOUND GUILTY
Fatal Thirteen, Court LOun-
gers Say, Was This Sa-
loon Keepers HOOdOO.

The jury which heard the evidence
In the case of the state against James
E. Hogan, proprietor of the Wood
bine," a Minnesota street saloon, re-
turned a verdict at 9 o'clock last night
finding him guilty of keeping a disor-
derly house. Judge Kelly will sentence
Hogan Monday morning.
Hogan'S is the third of the so-calIed
disorderly house cases tried, the con-
V1cdonS in the two preceding ones
Grozovsky, the Sherburne avenue bath
house keeper, and Ireton, a saloon man
having resulted in sentences to the
workhouse for a period of three months
Without the option of fine.
Hogan made a correct forecast of
what the verdict would be when he
was informed that the jury had reach
ed an agreement.
4 suppose it's a cinch they have
found me guilty, " he said to a crowd
of court attaches while awaiting the
arrival of Judge Kelly. Then he light
ed fragrant cigar and seemed not in
the least agitated.
There is one thing, though" said
Hogan, 'and that is you will find this
IrlShman taking his medicine like a
man. There Will be no SQueal from me.
If l have to go to the workhouse I
can do it, but mark my word, I will
have company there before 1 am
things about the way other places in
this town are run, and if they want
to go after this sort of places, it will
keep the wOrkhOuse filed for the rest
of the year. They picked out a few
of us and let the rest go, but am not
the one to make holler. When the
proper time comes I will show up some
of these other guys"
The hangers-on about the criminal
court room had Hogan convicted long
before the jury reached an agreement
Look what the man is up against" :"
said one. His case going to the jury
on Friday, and on the thirteenth of
the month at that. Then there were
just thirteen witnesses called in behalf
of the defense. You can't beat-a game
like that"
Attorney Stan Donnelly said last
night that he was as yet undecided
as to what further action he would
take in the Hogan case. It is possible
he will sue out a writ Of habeas
corpus should Hogan receive a work.
house sentence. In this manner Hogan
could be released on bail until the
matter is disposed of by the supreme
court Hogan is now out on bonds,
and will not be placed in custody un-
til Monday.
