good evidence that from an engineer

OREGON SCHOOL Land
CERTIFICATE FORGERlES

Portland, Or, Dec. 4.-Only when
all persons holding certificates for
school land in this state have sent their
certificates to Salem to have them ex.
amined will it be possible to make an
estimate of the extent Of the gigantic
swindles perpetrsted on Fasteners by
inscriptions land operators.
Gov. Chamberlain stated to the As
ISOLATED Press that there is no limit to
the number Of forged certificates which
could have been made, and it IL safe
to say, he added, that where the GER
tifioates were hypothecated the full
amounts shown by the CERTIFICATES were
obtained, or where sales were made
outright that the full value of the land,
as shown by cruising, was raid by the
victim.
Very few Of the persons who possess
forged certificates are known 80 far,
but from the fact that persons in Min
nesota, Wisconsin, Illinois. New York,
New Jersey, Ohio and Florida are in
possession of them, the officials fear
that when the whole number develops
It will include people in every state
east Of the Mississippi rviver.
The heaviest losers known to the
officials so far are 81. Goddard, of La
Crosse, Wis; George 81. Baldwin, Of
Appleton, Wis, and II. n. Delaittre,
Of Minneapolis, Mimi.
Gov. Chamberlain said that at the
present time he was unable to say who
the fraudulent operators are.
The certificates which were forged
were all for land sold BY the state prior
to 1900.
Only two methods BY which holders
may determine the originality Of their
certificates without sending them to
Salem are offered by the state officials.
The first IL that 90 far all the forgeEies
discovered are on paper bearing the
watermark ssSterling," brand Of pa
per that has never been sold In Oregon.
and the other 10, the forged certificates
are printed from xino etohings made
from photographs Of the original blank
form.

THE OLD SANTA FE TRAIL.


Old Track Through the Wilderness
Now Paralleled by a Railroad.
To the traveller crossing our western
plains to-day on a well appointed rail-
road train the transformation wrought
upon this wilderness through the agen-
cy of the locomotive is most striking.
He can hardly realize that this fertile
farming country with its thousands Of
towns and cities was once, only a mat
ter Of forty years ago, the stamping
grounds Of vast herds of buffaloes and
the battlefield Of fierce Indian tribes.
The march Of civilization has almost
obliterated every vestfge Of the old
life, and it is only here and there that
the ruins Of fort, or rude inscrip-
ton on a rock. or an unmarked grave
beside fertile field recall to the mind
of the beholder that amidst these
peaceful scenes rang the war-whoop

ALASKA FAIR IN 1907
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT.
DATE Be CHANGED.
Credifable Showing Could BE rlade
In 1907, but Later Date would
Insure an Exhibit That would
Command lniernsiional Afien-
1l0n.

Seattle, Dec. SIN the opinion of
the committee on permanent organizs-
tion, chosen from among the directors
OF the Alaska Yukon exposition, it is
inadvisable to hold the fair during the
year 1907. The committee is q unit
in favor of selecting 1909.
This conclusion was reached after q
thorough canvass Of the situation, and
Executive Commissioner Chealander
will call the board Of directors together
on Thursday afternoon for the purpose
Of receiving the report.
In recommending postponement Of
the exposition for two years, Commits
sioner Chealander states that the COM
mittee did 30 after becoming convinced
that, while q creditable showing could
be made If it be held in 1907, q much
more comprehensive exhibit, and one
which would insure international at
tentien, could be collected if the man
agement had four years instead of two
in which to perfect the details and as
semble the material. Three years was
considered by majority of the COM
mittee to be ample time in which to
prepare for the exposition, but in view
Of the fact that this would necessitate
holding it during presidential year,
it was deemed best to recommended
1909.
"The postponement," said Commits
sioner Chealander, ensures the collec-
ton of exhibits which will command
the attention of the whole world. 1t
will also allow abundant time in which
to exploit the undertaking to the full
est extent, 60 that when the doors are
opened its success will be assured. I
have maintained from the beginning
that the exposition could be held in
1907, but it is APPARENT that there are
many reasons which appeal for post
ponement. One is the fact that James.
town will hold tercentenary exposi-
ton in 1907, under government patron
age, in commemoration Of the settle
m emit Of this country. Patriotic sooie-
ties urged that the spirit surrounding
the Jamestown undertaking should
give it the right Of way.
"Itshould not be inferred that il the
directors see fit to postpone the exposi-
ton, that there will be any cessation,
on the part Of Seattle, Alaska and the
Yukon country in their efforts to pro-
mote it. Every day of the time inter-
vening can be profitably used in the
way Of preparation. The committee
will make a detailed report to the d.
rectorate at the meeting which will
be ollead for Thursday afternoon"
