case investigated, and it was alleged that
he had committed perjury in making his second
homestead entry, and the purchasers of the tim
Der were forced to make settlement with the
United States for the timber secured In
spirit of revenge and to scare the victim into
leaving the country, this land thief, with party
of men, took Jonathan Frakes, a reputable old
gentleman, to the lake shore night and
plunged him beneath the icy waters. Frakes was
accused of giving information in the land fraud
cases. 1t is understood that the special agent
also found bad order of things along the west
ern shores of Couer dAlene lake. where he is
reputed to have seized several million feet of
timber unawfully cut from public lands. 1t is
alleged that in this vicinity one man has made
several different settlement claims in order to
secure the timber thereon for Spokane lumber
company. The Investigating of such cases is an
encouragement to the honest settlers, who are
outspoken in their endorsement of such action on
the part of the authorities.
