GOVERNMENT BRINGS SUIT.
Tries to Recover Land in Famous
Township III.

An echo of the famous III land
fraud case has just been heard in the
federal building at Portland, when
Assistant United States Attorney
James Cole filed seven suits in the
United States circuit court to can
eel patents to lands which are alleg-
ed to have been proved up on fraudu-
lently by the 10 defendants named in
the complaints.
All of the lands, amounting to about
$500 acres. lie in the northeast corner
of Linn county.
The cancellation of the patents will
be the final chapter in the historic
suit in which was. involved S. A. d.
Puter. the Oregon land fraud king.
Through Puter many acres of valua-
hle lands were taken up and passed to
final proof before the government
learned of the fraud being practiced.
With the conviction of the culprits
the government is seeking to recover
the land. which has since passed into
the hands of the defendants named in
the suit filed this morning. II sue
cessful in regaining the land the gov
ernment will place it in the Cascade
forest reserve.

HEAVY YIELDS,

TOTAL CROP OF THE
COUNTRY is ENORMOUS
Secretary Wilson Says Farm Products
VIII Be Worth Half a Billion Dol
lars More Than Last Year-Corn
Crop VIII Reach to $500, ,OOO, 900
Bushels This Year.

Henry Clews writes optimistically
of the crop and financial conditions
OF the country in his last market let
ter. The furry Of the stock market
has not affected the substantial bus
iness interests Of the country. He
says:
II would not be fair to assume that
either the industrial or the agricultu-
raj conditions are approaching any
thing like a demoralized point. The
government reports on crop conditions
this week are quite up to expectations,
indicating that while in no instance
will any OF the great crops establish
new records, they are, nevertheless,
much above the average and are in
dollars and cents worth to the farm
ers more than some crops that have
established records.
The corn yield-which fnom the
stock market standpoint is the main
crop-promises to exceed two and
one-half billions of bushels, which,
while something like 100000, 600
bushels less than the final harvest
report of 1906, has, nevertheless, but
thrice been exceeded; the spring
wheat promise was curtailed less than
seven million bushels by the unfavor-
able weather during August, and as
the winter wheat harvest is already
assured it is quite conservative to ap-
proximate the total wheat harvest for
1876, 100000 bushels in 1906, but is,
nevertheless, a good average of recent
harvests.
The cotton crop situation is also
showing that there will be a good sup
ply for export. so that from the agri-
cultural standpoint there is slight JUS
tification for predictions of reaction
Secretary Wilson estimates that the
farm products will be worth between
$500, 100000 and $1,000. 100000 more
this year than last, and last year they
weer officially reported by Mr.. Will
sons department at $500, 100000.

The report of the interstate COM

railroad statistics for the past year,
Is now complete and is being issued
by the government.
Detailed statistics of railroad ope-
ration and expansion for the past
year are given and to the student of
the railroad question the report Is
most interesting study.
The report shows that the total
single track railway mileage in the
United States was 224. 4.363.17 miles,
or 6;262.13' miles more than at the
end of the previous year. An in

The operated mileage for which
substantially complete returns was
rendered to the commission was z22,-
$1,000 miles, including 1862 miles
of line used under trackage rights.
The aggregate length of railway mile
age. including tracks of all kinds, was
3l7,0S3.19 miles.
This mileage was thus classified

miles; third track, 1766.07 miles;
fourth track, 1270.66 miles, and yard
track and sidings, 73,760.91 miles.
These figures indicate that there was
an increase of 10.2S6.45 miles in the
aggregate length of all tracks, Of
which 2S19.24 miles. or 37.13 per cent
represented the extension of yard
track and sidings.
The number of railway corpora

PENDLETON, April 3.-The East
oregonian has the following account
Of the trial of Mrs. Mabel Warner, of
interest to Walla Walla people:
Like the plot of a dime novel or Of
a Bowery melodrama. was the story
that was unfolded to the Jury in the
Warner case in the circuit court this
afternoon. 1t was told by Judge James
A Fee in his opening statement for
the prosecution in the case wherein
Mabel Young Warner is accused of
having forged a will whereby she be-
came the principal heiress to an estate
valued at $4,000
After the II jurors had been duly
sworn Judge Fee took the floor for
the opening statement for the state.
He explained why he had been re-
tanned in the case by the county court
and read the formal indictment against
Mrs. Warner.
Taking up the threads of the story
Judge Fee said the testimony would
show that after the death Of the late
j. w. Young. B. B. Hall had been
named by the county court as admin
istrator of his estate. That the de-
ceased had maintained a box in the
vault Of the Farmer Bank Of Weston
in which he left papers and valuable
documents during his life time. That
soon after his death Mr.. Hall in the
presence of witnesses, made a careful
inspection of the box in search of a
will but found nothing of that nature.
That shortly afterwards the defendant,
Mrs. Warner her husband and her
