his title The man who bought th,
school land from the state believed
he had perfect title, The man whC
bought the lieu land believes he ha,
good title, because his deed Is backed
up by a patent from the government
Yet Il Is apparent that one OF tn,
two men must lose his land. II the
school land was In fact mineral. the
purchaser Of the lieu land may retair
his property, II the school section ID
not mineral. his title secured upon the
representation that Il was mineral will
be OF little effect.
The man who purchased the school
land from the state In iss2 writes that
II Is not mineral that he has been
farming Il nearly 20 years, and that
he can bring all his nelghbors to tes-
Itlfy that II IL not mineral land.
When the correspondence was shown
to Governor Geo. Il. Chamberlain. the
chief executive expressed his feelings
In language that was forceful. what
ever else may be saidof II. He advised
state Land Agent West to proceed
upon the theory that the prior pur-
chaser has good title. and to notify
the purchaser OF the timber land that
his title is In great doubt, notwith-
standing the patent. and that he will
do well to look after the matter be-
fore some one else acquires a right
to his land by scripping or otherwise.
There are q lot OF cases Just like
this" remarked Mr.. West. and we
are discovering these conflicting sales
very frequently"
Mr.. West has inaugurated new
system of keeping the state land
agents records, by means OF which any
conflicting interest arising through
state land transactions viii be dis
covered. The records also make Il
possible to determine at moments
notice that exac status of any tract
OF state land. By means OF these
records Mr.. West has discovered sew
eral thousand acres OF valid base"
lands. which are worth TO the state
more than the amount Of his salary for
four years.
In order to protect the purchasers
and give them an opportunity 10 make
their titles good. Mr.. West does not
make the names OF the parties public.

Mrs. Ciarenes Maoksy 6tsrsiss fas-
senesrs on Atlantic Liner.

Mrs. Ciarsnes Aaaoksy 6tsrtiss fss-
senssrs on Atlantic Liner.
II has never been the custom for
passengers on trans-Atlantic liners to
dress for dinner. although a few fash
lonable women occasionally wear low
necked gowns In the evening, But
when Mrs Clarence II. Mackay crossed
week ago she amazed the first-class
passengers with her fine evening frocks
and jewels. Mackay's suit on the hur-
ricane deck held a great many trunks.
Mrs. Mackay was never without a
string OF black pearls, and she carried
her jeweled brooches every night. OF
course, the young matron was the CEN
ter Of attraction and made many
friends. OF all the fashionable women
she is the least inclined to surround
herself with barriers OF formality
Mrs. Mackay's mother-ln-law, Mrs.
John w. Mackay. gave a reception in
London for the tall, dark beauty one
night last week. Young Mrs. Mackay's
costume bewildered the beholders.
Carlton house terrace was built for
entertaining, and the Mackay family
received at the top Of the marble stair
case. The younger woman wore a
gown OF white gauze. shot generously
with silver threads. Mrs. Mackay wore
emeralds that had not been seen since
she began her two years Of mourning
A pIastron OF emeralds and diamonds
had for it's center ten carat stone. She
wore a diamond tiara and necklace
Of similar gems. with emerald pend
ants. Although she does not show her
gowns often in public, at private parties
she can outblaze almost any other
New York woman.
There is warm praise for another
American woman in London. She Is
Mrs. John Jacob Astor, and this is her
first real glimpse Of London society.
Mrs. Astor was the belle Of the ball OF
Lady Farquhar. and no woman ap-
preached her degree OF triumph during
Ascot week.
Paris first waxed enthusiastic over
her, and London has taken UP the
chorus. She will remain there until
the end Of the season.

TITLES ARE IN DOUBT.
Slack Methods Of Handling Lands Are
Now Being Shown Up.

According to a Salem dispatch, cor
respondence which has recently passed
between State Land Agent Oswald
West, the secretary OF the interior and
a purchaser Of school land, illustrates
some Of the conditions that have been
brought about in state land affairs in
the past. This correspondence shows
that, in 1882, the state sold quarter
section Of school land In small valley
in Baker county, and the man who
bought it took possession, improved
the land and built home. He has
lived there ever since.
In 1900 the state represented to the
general government that the school
land was mineral in character, and
that, therefore the state did not ac-
quire title to it. At the request OF a
man who waned to secure timber land,
the state selected in lieu Of that quar-
ter section Of school land quarter
section of timber land In Columbia
county. The government accepted the
school land as valid base, and patent
ed the timber land to the state. The
state decided the land to the man who
had applied for 1t.
In all these proceedings neither Of
the men who purchased from the state
