HALL WANTS EARLY TRIAL.
Ex- United States District Attorney
Tired OF Long Delay.

John H. Hall, ex-United States at
torney for Oregon, appeared before
United States Judge Wolverton in the
federal court yesterday and request
ed that his case be set for trial, says
the Portland Oregonian Mr.. Hall
explained that he had been promised
trial during the month Of Novem-
ber by United States Attorney-Gen-
eral Bonaparte. Judge Wolverton re-
fused to set the case for the reason
that the jury had been called to hear
civil suits only.
In addressing the court, Mr.. Hall
said the indictment in which he is
charged with refusing TO prosecute
persons alleged illegally to have
fenced up government land in east
ern Oregon was returned against him
in March, 1906. At that time, he
demanded an immediate trial only
to be told that there were others who
must be tried before him.
Later. a scarcity Of funds with
which to continue the prosecution Of
the land-fraud trials was offered as
an excuse for still further postponing
his trial, and before resuming his
seat Mr.. Hall declared that he re-
Gently had visited United States At
torncy-General Bonaparte, who had
assured him that the trial would be
set for hearing some time this month.
The indicted ex-official demanded
that the date for his trial on the
charge be fixed by the court with
out further delay.

ONIONS AS A SIDE CROP.
SeIah Rancher Takes $40O an Acre
From Between Rows OF Trees.

From Between Rows OF Trees.
H. C. Haney of the Selah Valley
showed the Republic a check for
1886 this morning which he receiv-
ed for a portion of his onion crop
from four square rods less than two
and one-half acres, says the Yakima
Republic. The remaining portion
amounts to about two tons, and
brings the value of the entire crop
from this small piece of ground up
to 5000, or about $400 an acre.
This onion crop was raised be-
tween the rows of trees in a young
orchard, thus showing that a land
owner in this valley can make big
money off of his fruit land while he
is waiting for it to come into bear
ing.
That these facts may not be lost
or overlooked, Harry Baylor of the
Inland Real Estate company, secur-
ed an affidavit from Mr.. Haney re-
garding the facts, and then took both
the affidavit and the check to a pho
tographer and had picture made of
them, from which he will make a cut
for advertising purposes.
