FOUND DEAD IN CABIN
Martin McDermOtt, a Grand Army
Veteran, Succumbs to fieart
Disease.

Martin McDermott, an old resident
Of Polk county, was found dead in
his cabin, two miles northeast of
Smithfield, Saturday afternoon. The
discovery of the dead body was made
by James Myer, a near neighbor.
Mr., McDermott lived alone, and had
evidently been dead several hours.
Coroner Chapman was summoned by
telephone, and drove out to the cabin
late in the afternoon, but finding that
death had resulted from natural
causes, decided thatno formal inquest
was necessary.
Mr.. McDermott was in Dallas Fri
day, and returned to his home in the
evening. The next day he was not
seen around his cabin, and Mr.. Myer,
who lives near by, went over to see if
any accident had befallen him. When
he entered the cabin he found the old
man lying dead on his bed. He had
removed none of his clothing, and
from all appearances had been dead
several hours. Death was doubtless
caused by heart failure.
Mr.. McDermott was born in Dublin,
Ireland, and was 70 years old. He
came to the United States at the age
of 13 years. He was veteran of the
Civil War, having volunteered from
the state of Massachusetts, His early
life was saddened by the loss of his
wife and two children, all three dying
within period Of one month, and he
decided to seek new home in the Far
West. He came to Oregon 25 years
ago, and had been resident of Polk
county for over 90 years. He was a
quiet and inoffensive man, warm
hearted and generous, and had many
friends who will be grieved to hear of
his lonely death

What Fools, Etc.

A bill has been introduced in the
Oregon Legislature by Senator Wright,
prohibiting dentists from advertising
in newspapers, or attaching the pro-
fessional degree to their names. If
dentistry is not one of the great
modern professions, and one of the
most useful and widely needed, then
the common belief and experience of
mankind are at fault. Why should
not a dentist advertise as we'll as a
lawyer, surgeon or a veterinarian?
Such bills as this would seem to be a
useless and groundless waste of the
time Of the Legislature. Probably the
work of some dentist or clique of
dentists who seek to kill off a su ccess-
full advertising competitor Eugene

GRAND JURY TAKES RECESS
Several Indictments viii Not Be
Made Public Until Grand Jury
Meets in April.

The Federal grand jury was excused
Monday afternoon, and will take q
recess until the call of United States
District Attorney Heney, which will be
made about the first of April, at which
time Mr.. Heney will return to Port
land from the East and will resume
the Investigations which have not as
yet been finished.
1t was stated by Mr.. Heney prior to
the adjournment that there had been
several indictments voted by the jury
which it had been impossible to pre-
pare at this time and which would be
held over and not returned to the
court until the body was called togeth-
or again in April.
What these indictments are is a
mystery, but it is supposed that they
have to do with the Investigations
which have been made into the con-
duct of the Roseburg Land Office and
the dealings Of the timber buyers and
syndicates Of the past few years.
The Blue Mountain indictments are
as follows: John H. Mitchell, Senator
from Oregon; Binger Hermann,
Representative in Congress; John N.
Williamson, Representative in Con-
gress; Franklin p Mays, State Sena-
tor and Portland Attorney; w. N.
Jones; George Sorenson ex-Deputy
Sheriff and timber dealer. 1t is
alleged that the defendants conspired
to defraud the United States of land
to be obtained in exchange for school
lands fraudulently obtained from the
state, and to be included in the pro-
posed Blue Mountain Reserve.
The conspiracy indictments John
H. Hall, ex-United States Attorney
Henry Ford, private detective; Harry
L. Rees, ex-Major In United States
Army; A. P. Cayler, a Portland grain
merchant; John Cordano, a Deputy
Sheriff; j. H. Hitchings, Portland
lawyer; John Northup, a juror in the
Sorenson case Charles Lord, a Port
land attorney. 1t is alleged that the
defendants conspired together to form
a plot which would cause the removal
of District Attorney Heney from office
by blackening his character before
the public and proving him to be a
man of lax morals. The conspiracy
was to bring witnesses who would
swear to improper relations between
Mr.. Heney and Marie Ware

DALLAS is VICTOR
Basketball Team Wins Fourth Com
secutlve Game from Oregon
Agricultural College.

Dallas, 25; O. A. G. 16. The two
strong basketball teams Of the Pacific
Coast have met, and this is the score.
The contest took place in Dallas last
Friday evening, and was witnessed
by fair-sized crowd of basketball
enthusiasts, who braved the wintry
weather and sat for an hour in the
cold gymnasium building cheering
the boys in crimsonEto victory. Before
the game commenced and during the
intermission between the halves, the
spectators suffered from the cold, but
when the game was on there was ex-
element enough to keep Everybody
warm. The game was lively from
start to finish, and not until the
second half was nearing an end did
the Dallas supporters feel that they
were certain Of the final score.
Dallas played one of the best games
in floor work and passing ever wit
messed here, and had no trouble in
getting numerous shots for the basket.
The farmers were much more closely
guarded, but made nearly every
possible shot count. The basket
throwing Of the home team was not up
to the usual average, but the number
of chances was much larger than Cor
Wallis is accustomed to permit. In
the first ten seconds of the game,
Dallas took three shots TOR the basket,
Corvallis scarcely being given an
opportunity to touch the ball. The
score at the end Of the first half stood
~ to in favor of Dallas.
The most brilliant playing of the
game occurred in the last part of the
second half, when Dallas, by unsur-
passed team work, landed two baskets
in quick succession, placing the final
score beyond any question or doubt.
To mention the Dallas players who
distinguished themselves would be to
mention every man on the team, as
each did his part and did it we'll
Good feeling prevailed throughout.

Money Spent For Food.

According to a recent article in the
Morning Leader the average amount an
nually spent by the population In IN
taxed food is $236. 600, and In tea. cof-
fee, cocoa and sugar is s54. 00J 900. In re-
gard. however, to sugar, great deal Is
bought for manufacturing articles which
are exported abroad. The value of the
articles in the second group consumed at
home would consequently not be more
than $50 100000 at most. These figures
eonclusively show how much the loss to
every family would exceed the gain If
the price of the articles at present I'M
taxed were raised by duty and the
price of the dutiable articles reduced by
a reduction of the duty.
In this article there are figures show
ing the average amount during the past
ten years consumed by the population in
food and in drink. They are startling

who would regard the consumption of

and having converted their annual

Season Has Been GAY.

Society people In the Capital City are
not sorry that it is all over and Lent is
here. 1t has been gay all winter and the
entertainments in the official circle have
been on an unusually elaborate scale. At
fairs at the White House have been nu-
merous and the President is setting a
pace for semi-official entertaining that
is unusual Rarely a day has passed
that there was not one or more guests
for luncheon and dinner, Young people
have been especially favored, and Miss
Roosevelt has made the life of her friends
happy one with small dances and musi-
Gales The new system in vogue in the
cabinet dinners has proven a happy idea
and these once stiff formal affairs have
lost much OF their gloominess and monot-
ony. The President enjoys meeting bright
people and likes to see new faces as often
as possible. There has been no letting
down of social bars in all this seeming
change and there will always be persons
who feel that they are not given the So
cal recognition they are entitled TO- but
there Is little ground for such a feeling.
Lent came on Wednesday and society
is outwardly taking things quietly. The
bridge tables, dinners and receptions are
as much the vogue as before and really
the difference Is more superficial than
otherwise. OF course society goes to
church in the afternoon, but that does
not take up all the afternoon and there
is time for visiting afterward. Others

BY w. 7. MANNING.

Washington, March 11.-Washington has
taken all Of this week to recover from
the inauguration and its Publications, and
Washington people are not always sorry
that such an event happens but once in
your years. The crowds, the largest
ever seen here, were slow in leaving, and
the streets were almost as badly jammed
on Sunday and Monday as they were on
Saturday. OF course thousands left as
soon as the parades were over, and over
800 trains were sent out loaded from one
station, but these did not seem to reduce
the jam on the streets and in the hotel
Hobbies to any appreeiable extent. Wash
ington tried to be good on Sunday. and
the saloons were presumably closed, but
there was of course a certain amount of
leakage and many men had souvenirs of
the day before. but few arrests for drunk
enness were made.
As a whole the crowd was an orderly
one. A conservative estimate placed the
number of persons handled by the rail-
roads at 60 per cent increase over the
number of four years ago. The parade
was spectacular, more so than any of its
predecessors, on account of the cowboys,
Indians, Porto Ricans and Fllipinos, to
say nothing of the college men in caps
and gowns, who enlivened things with
their Rah, Rahs whenever 1t was justi-
fed in any way The inaugural ball is
admitted to have been the most elaborate
In history. In point of attendance it was
also a record breaker, and dancing on
such occasions is always merely a pre-
text, as no pleasure or comfort was pos
sble on the crowded floors.
