LAND GRANTS.
Seek to Institute Assessments and
Collection of Taxes for Period
Dating From 1860.

A Salem special says it has been dis
covered that the state of Oregon has
been for over forty years deprived Of an
amount of revenue reaching up into the
hundreds of thousands, by failure of
land grant owners to record their hold
ings.. This failure on their part has
been resorted to for the purpose of
evading taxation, and the movement
just started by Attorneys Holmes &
Holmes, who have prepared petition
which will be placed in circulation i'm
medlately asking for the initiative upon
bill authorizing the assessment and
collection of taxes upon all property
heretofore unassessed for period which
dates back to 1850. If submitted to the
people and enacted this bill will operate
to force all rail and wagon road COM
panies as well as many private and cor.
porate interests, which obtained title TO
land in this state by virtue of the gov
ernment land grant of 1866, and other
wise, to pay back taxes upon it for the
period within the bill. There are thou
sands of acres of such land In the state,
and if assessed and the owners made to
pay taxes upon it the common school
fund, to which the money would be
turned, would be enriched to the extent
of hundreds Of thousands Of dollars,
impossible to estimate even approx
imatelY.

K. P. CONVENTION APRIL 8.

Large Delegations Are Expected From
Outside Points.
Saturday evening, April s, was set by
Damon Lodge No. 4, knights Of Pythlas
OF Pendleton, as the date for the holding
of the district convention at this place,
says the East Oregonian. The meeting
was voted for Saturday evening in order
to make it possible for as many members
as possible from the lodges up the

good delegations will be present from

Night From Friday to Saturday
of Each Week.

The new |. 0. O. FIX. Of p. lodge

Lodge, No. 30, X. Of p, held the first
meeting in its new home. The lodge
properly started in with something good
for the order by having in waiting can

of the rank Of Page. To Mr.. Hugh Bell
belongs the honor of being the first man
to receive initjatory work in the new
lodge room,
Wild Horse Lodge, No. 73, I, o. o. F.
will hold its first meeting in the new hall
tomorrow night. The Odd Fellow lodge,
which formerly had Friday for its regu-
lar meeting night, has made change to
Saturday night. The change meets with
the approval OF all members Of the lodge
for the reason that they consider Satur-
day night more convenient for members
to attend meetings, and especially for
those members residing in the country.
The encampment will as usual, meet on
Monday night.
The Rathbone Sisters, the Rebekahs
and the Woodman Camp, are negotia-
ting, so it is understood, for accommoda-
tions in the new hall, the Circle having
already secured the first and third Tues
day nights of each month.
The furnishings are nearly all in place
and while nothing OF an elaborate order
has been attempted 10 selections made,
the good judgement Of the committee is
distinctly verified In the purchase Of at
tractive and servicable furniture, car
pets, etc. The assembly room is car
peted in green, borderd around the en-
tire room with a platform and official
stations carpeted in red with dark fig
ure. Around this raised platform are
comfortable arm chairs. Two splendid
chandeliers throw electric light with
beautiful effect, harmonizing the deli.
cate coloring, shades and tints which
blend in the artistic finish OF walls and
ceiling. The two reception rooms are
carpeted and the hallway and kitchen
are laid with linoleum. 1t is beautiful
lodge home-a credit to enterprising

year was somewhat of success, no at.
tempts to take up that industry this
year in those sections will be made. The
chief stumbling block to sugar beet
raising has been found to be the poor
irrigation facilities, especially in the
Echo district, and it is not believed that
the raising of this product on large
scale will be attempted there until some
of the irrigation schemes now under
contemplation are completed and put in
operation. E. w. McComas, owner of

Four prisoners broke out of the county
jail early Tuesday morning. The men
pried bar loose on one of the windows
and crawled through space eight inch

of the men worst wanted after few

fourth has been seen in Pendleton and

On the day of escape one of the prison

Switzler's island in the Columbia river,
says that the experiment in sugar beet
raising last year on the ialand proved
quite successful but that industry would
not prove practical at this time as other
products can be raised which will pro-
duce surer market and better profits.
The island is now principally producing
alfalfa, while fruits and vegetables are
being grown on smaller scale. Mr..
McComas says it would be possible to
devote the island entirely to sugar beet
raising SO far as sufficient irrigating fa-
cilities are concerned, but should that
be attempted the venture would be a
risk which he does not care to take.
