HAY HARVEST IN LANE COUNTY.
Vetch Has Come into Popular Favor
and Is Raised Generally.

Eugene Farmers in this county are
nearly all in the midst OF hay harvest,
and for two weeks all energy will be
directed towards putting in the hay for
market or for winter use. The crop is
the best that has been seen here for
years. All kinds of grass has grown
better than usual and on account of a
shortage a year ago there is an in
creased acreage.
There is an immense amount of
vetch, which has proven to be one of
the best fodder crops ever introduced
here, for the triple reason that it is
very nourishing, yields heavy crop
and enriches rather than impoverishes
the land. Its use has become general
and nearly every farmer raises more or
less OF it.
Less grain will be cut for hay than
usual, on account of the abundance of
the purely hay crops.

Year of Growth at Varsity.

University OF Oregon, Eugene--The
class that was graduated this year is
not the largest class ever graduated by
the University of Oregon, there being
81 members only, but the increase in
attendance and the general character OF
work done is such as caused every
alumni to approve of the regime of
President P. l.. Campbell, One of the
greatest changes made in the universe
ty during the past year was the adop-
tion of the partially free elective sys-
tenn. That change was made as re-
suit of the firm growth of state high
schools, thus making it possible for the
university not only to abolish the pre-
paratory department, but also to place
the student upon his own responsibility
in choosing a course of study.

oregon STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST
TITLE CLAIMED BY STATE.
Klamath County Land Good Now Only
for Hay.

Tor ray.
salem-rhe state OF Oregon has as
serted title 10 $500 acres OF land in
the vicinity OF Swan lake, klamath
county, and questions the right Of about
dozen settlers TO acquire the land
fromthe government under the home-
stead laws. In order 10 determine the
rights OF the state and the settlers, the
government has assigned q special agent
at Klamath Falls to 20 with State Land
Agent Oswald West and ascertain the
character Of the land.
Though the states claim is adverse
10 the settlers, there is no intention on
the part Of the state land board to oust
the settlers from their homes. On the
contrary, the assertion OF the states
claim will be protection 10 the set
tiers, for II will remove all doubt as TO
the validity Of their title. II the in
vestigation should result in decision
that the states claim is good, all bona
flde homestead entrymen will be given
an opportunity 10 buy from the state at
the minimum price Of 81 per acre.
There Is room for dispute as to the
character Of the land. II is low and
for considerable part OF the year Is
covered with water. Late in the sum-
mer the water recedes sufficiently TO
permit hay harvesting, and the settlers
save crop for winter feed. In many,
and perhaps all instances, the settlers
cannot live on the land all the year, for
the reason that it oyerhows. II II is in
fact swamp land, the settlers could
never acquire valid title through their
homestead entries, the experience Of
the Warner valley settlers being an il
lustration Of the outcome OF an effort OF
that kind. Some OF the settlers realize
the condition OF their title and are de-
sirous that the state press it's claim in
order that they may know whether they
can secure the land from the govern.
ment or not. II they cannot, the soon.
er they find 1t out the less will be Their
! ,ss. II they can, the determination oi
that fact will leave them with indis.
putable titles.
In the case of the Warner valley
lands the state sold the swamp lands tC
men other than the settlers, and litiga-
tion has thus far resulted adversely tC
the settlers. In this instance the state
will settle the question OF title before
selling the land, and then, il ii be de
cided that the state owns the land un
der the swamp land grant, will give
bona fide homesteaders a chance Il
purchase.

structions. The work ia expected to
be completed by July /. No work will
be done above this point this year. A
channel S5 feet wide at the bottom and
45 at the top is being cut. This will

kREBs MEETS WITH SUCCESS
Hop Raisers are Signing Up for Big
Pool for 1906.


salem--Presiden Krebs, OF the Ore
gon Hopholders' association, has re-
turned from st. Paul, in the north end
OF this county, where meeting OF
growers was held. Mr.. Krebs says that
about 45 growers were present and that
all signed agreements to transfer their
1905 crop OF hops to corporation OF
growers TO be formed at Salem at some
future date. Committees we're appoint
ed TO secure similar agreements from
those growers in the St. Paul. district
who were not present.
Mr.. Krebs says that the movement
for the organization OF growers cor
poration is meeting with much greater
success than he anticipated. In the
Independence district, all but three
growers have signed agreements to
transfer their hops to the corporation.
The enthusiasm with which the grow
ers are taking up the project convinces
Mr.. Krebs that % per cent Of the 1905
crop will be in the hands Of the corpor-
alton.
The plan is to have the affairs of the
corporation managed by board OF di-
rectors composed of growers elected
from the various districts by the grow
ers themselves.

SCHOOL LAND FRAUD.
State VIII Hold Back Titles to Large
Tracts In Oregon.

saiem--John De Laittre, a Minneap.
oils banker, appeared before the state
land board last week TO show himself
aud members OF his family TO be the
innocent purchasers OF 10000 acres OF
state land sold 10 various persons In
1900 through the mediumship OF II. IL.
Turner and A. T. kelliher. The board
was not entirely satisfied with the
showing made and gave him until July
90 TO submit further evidence. Az that
time the board will probably make
known its policy regarding the issuance
Of deeds 10 holders OF state land certi-
hcates which have been iraudulently
obtained.
At the meeting OF the board an order
was also made which will result in
test mandamus suit being brought 10
determine whether an innocent purch-
aser OF land sale certificate is entitled
TO deed, even though the certificate
was iraudulently obtained. This order
was made at the request OF W. II.
Holmes, who came before the board as
the attorney for the unnamed client.
He presented two certificates Of sale. is
sued upon applications bearing the
names Of II. A. Wild and /. U. Girard,

county hop growers has held here last
week to consider an offer for the 1904
crop. 1t was voted to not accept the
quotation, and the prospective buyers
were notified that no offer of less than
80 cents would be given any considera-
tion. Practically all of the hops un-
sold are in the hands of growers who
can afford to hold, and there is no in
Clination to part with holdings unless
at the price named above, and it is i'm
probable that they would even sell at
80 cents,

work binding their grain, which is al

may be bound before it is entirely ripe,
the berries are perfectly formed, and
while yet in the dough it ripens in the

will be far above the average, as crop

DISTURBANCES CONTINUE.
First Outbreak of the Day Results In
Fatality.

dIdllIys
Chicago, May 5.-With employers
preparing to press demand for troops
violence in the teamsters' strike shows
no signs of cessation. The very first
outbreak resulted in a fatality. The
riot took place near the barns OF the
Employers Teaming company in
Eighteenth street near State. Charles
Riebling, a white man, who resides In
the vicinity, received fractured skull
and is expected to die. He was stand
ing in a crowd which started to jeer
a nonunion colored teamster, who was
guarded by five detectives. The negro
suddenly picked up stone and threw
it into the crowd. Riebling was struck
on the head and sank to the ground
unconscious. The crowd chased the
negro into the stables of the teaming
company, but were driven back by
private detectives welding "billies"
and pieces of gaspipe.
During a second disturbance at the
stable OF the Employers association
in Eighteenth street John Dansberry,
a nonunion colored teamster, was shot.
He had attempted to strike a boy who
shouted an offensive epithet A num-
Der of strike sympathizers instantly
made for the negro and began to
throw bricks and stones at him. Pri-
vate detectives rushed to Dansberry's
aid a general fight ensued during
which Dansberry received bullet in
the leg. 1t was necessary to take him
to a hOSnltal.

Chicago, May 5.-Sheriff Thomas r.

from the Chicago Employers associa-
tion to act with the police in quelling

thousand deputy sheriffs. Immediately
following this demand from the mer-
chants the chief county official con
ferred with Mayor Dunno, Corporation

ONeill. 1t was said that Sheriff Bar.
rett Interpreted the law to mean that
he had full powers to s'read the riot
act" and begin Immediately to swear
in deputies.
The call upon the sheriff by the En-
ployers association was said to be pre-
liminary to plans to have the national
guard put in the streets. Representa-,
tives of the Employers association, it
was said, spent several hours scrutln1z-
ing the law in the case. The decision
to first request Sheriff Barrett to act
came as a result. 1t was said after
ward that Sheriff Barrett expressed a
determination to show that his depu-
ties, acting with the Chicago police
detail of 2,700 men, would be adequate
to quell disturbances and see that nor

sumed without the aid of soldiers.

London, May 5.-The Identification
of the warships sighted by the steam
er Selanger in the straits of Malacca
as Rear Admiral Nebogatoff's division
of Admiral Rojestvensky's squadron is
considered likely to develop an inter-

sion was sighted as long ago as April

Russian warships are within territorial

cate that for a week the Russians have

there was less interference with de-
