Now that the end OF "Salomy

ADVICE
FROM
HfNfY
Says Conviction Of Prominent Men
Alone viii Stop Land Frauds

Francis j. Heney, land fraud pros
ecutor, who is now in San Francisco
prosecuting the municipal grafters,
writes to the Portland Oregonian on
the remedy for land frauds in the
northwest. Mr.. Heney says:
have very strong convictions in
regard to the most beneficial method
of handling prosecutions which in
volve the violation of trust by public
officers and criminal transactions by
men OF high social or political posi-
tion, or great wealth.
II seems to me that the greatest
good to the people comes from the
complete exposure of the relations
between powerful business interests
and the municipal, state and federal
political grafters. The people have
been in the habit of looking upon .
political CRATER as merely an indi-
vidual crook, instead OF the repre-
sentative of business interests who
forced him upon a conflding public
for the purpose of having him carry
out their purpose without caring
whether he individually CRAFTS upon
the public or not, and usually know
ing that he will do so, and has been
doing so.
No permanent reformation will be
accomplished by putting a few pollt-
ical grafters in jail, although II will
doubtless have a very wholesome de-
terrent effect on others, and particu-
larly so II the grafters sent to jail
are men OF previously high stand
ing. socially. politically or financial
ly.
The people must learn TO look be-
hind the scenes TO discover the cause
of political graft. II they would Sc
cure permanent results. Large busi-
ness interests are always behind bad
municipal government, and likewise
behind bad states and national gov
ernment.
Large business interests brought
about the passage by congress OF the
lieu land act of 1897. and the state
of Oregon thereby lost TO its citizens
millions of acres of the most magnif-
lcent timber land in the world, and
the prior policy of the national gov
ernment in relation to those lands
was utterly defeated.
Instead OF the lands being retain
ed by the national government so
that they would gradually be ac-
quired by individuals in small tracts,
they became under the lieu land act
the spoil of rich predatory corpora
tions which acquired them In such
immense tracts that their ownership
will always be a menace TO the busi-
ness Interests of the citizens of Ore
gon,
The amount OF land acquired from
the national government in Oregon
through fraudulent methods, such as
those adopted by S. A. ID. Puter and
others, is Insignificant when COM
