I Another chapter in the factional
warfare in the republican party in
Oregon is brought to close by the
summary dismissal of NJ. ]. Nolan,
register of the land office at The
Dalles by order Of the president.
The story goes back for a number
of years to the time when Nolan was
a willing tool of his faction and as
pired, in return, to secure fat place
in the government service. He was
finally rewarded by being made reg
lister of the land office at his home
town, The DaIles
Then the enemies of NJ. 4. Mood.
who had secured the appointment of
Nolan, began to lay plans to ALLEVIATE
the register and his benefactor and
it is alleged trumped up evidence to
show Nolan that the receiver of the
office, Miss Anna Lang. a close friend
of Mr. Moody, was giving out secret
information concerning land with
drawals, by which her friend were
benefiting. Nolan sent such charges
to Washington and offered his resig-
nation. His resignation was refused
and he is given severe chastisement
by being dismissed. A dispatch from
The Dalles says:
Receiver Anne NJ. Lang. of the To-
cal land office Is tonight in receipt
of a telegram from the commissioner
of the general land office, advising
her that the president has removed
Register Nolan, and that he has been

sion. According to the commission
er's directions, the land office VIII
transact no business, but will be open
for the information OF the public
pending further instructions.
Beyond the information contained
in the commissioners telegram. Miss
Lang declines to discuss the matter
further tonight. Mr.. Nolan has been
out of town since Saturday, and the
land office force knows nothing of his
whereabouts.
\ Washington dispatch says of the
causes of Mr.. Nolan's Dismissal:
Mr.. Nolan's dismissal follows an in
vestigation of The Dalles land office
under the personal direction Of Sec
retary Hitchcock. and while the Sec
retary could not be seen tonight, It
is understood that the investigation
showed that Mr.. Nolan's charges
against NJ. \. Moody, Miss Lang and
others were not substantiated, and
that his failure to make good was
considered sufficient ground for his
removal.
It was at the suggestion of ex-Rep-
resentative Moody that the acceptance
of Mr.. Nolan's resignation was with
drawn two months ago, Mr. Moody
having intimated to Mr.. Hitchcock
that Mr.. Nolan should not be allowed
| to resign. but should be dismissed.
Mr.. Moody had previously been advis-
I ed of the nature of the charges made
Against him by Mr.. Nolan in his letter
of resignation, and had declared that
these charges could not be proven
1t was intended that Mr. Nolan be
punished for taking his radical course,
and the only punishment open was to
order his dismissal. As far as can be
learRed, Mr. Nolan Is not dismissed
