the best OF hurry is that 1t is its own

HAS WAR ENDED?
Hill and Hartman Reported to Hav
Negotiated Peace.

Hill and Hartman Reported to Have
Negotiated Peace.
Portland, Or, Jan. THE Sunday
Oregonian says:
Negotiations are on between Hill
and Hartman and their differences in
the Northwest have practically been
settled. w. w. Cotton, general coun-
sci of the Oregon Railroad g. Naviga-
ton Company, last night admitted
that the Representatives Of the compa-
mics have been negotiating, but he had
not heard whether any final conclu-
sions had been reac he'd. From the
progress of the negotiations, however.
and the reports from Seattle, which
would indicate that the local end of
the agreement at that place had been
concluded, there seems to be little
doubt that the Hartman and Hill in
terests will conclude their animosity
in the Northwest.
IF any agreement has been reached
it means that Hill is to have unob.
structed entrance into Portland and
an opportunity to acquire adequate
terminal facilities; that Hartman
will receive similar treatment In Seat
tie at the hands Of Hill, and possibly
that the railroad war along the north
bank Of the Columbia river will cease. .

tion by Victor 81. Beckman, secretary

ISOLATION, che lumbermen Of the North

quest him to send special message to

plining' shippers who were active in
the agitation for reciprocal demurrge,
and that in three cases these roads
had volunteered to show the shippers
''what q real car shortage meant, +"
with the result that the men thus
''shown" had been forced to 60 abso-
lutely without equipment.
"Our present Car shortage" contin-
ued Mr.. Beckman, 'has lasted thir-
teen months, and some Of our people
are going out Of business-not volun-
tarily, but BY the aid Of the sheriff.
We ask for . receiver for these two
roads on the ground that they have
not fulfilled their duties as public car
riers."
Mr.. Beckman. who heads the COM
mittee to visit President Roosevelt,
will show the president 1000 photo
graphs which he has taken all over the

eating 500, 600, 900 feet, awaiting

EZRA MEEKER ENDS TRIP
Overland Journey East Over Old Trail
L. Completed.

10 Completed.
Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 8.-Aftel
eleven months on the way from Puy
allup, WASH, Ezra Meeker arrived in
Indianapolis last week In an old fash
iaoned prairie schooner, drawn by an
OK team. His trip was made over the
old Oregon trail. which he first trav-
eled So years ago, when he went West,
and it was made this time for the pur-
pose of marking the historic pathway
which thousands followed through the
wilderness to the new empire Of the
Northwest.
The old man stood In Monument
Place at the head Of his OK team and
told the story Of his return over the
old Oregon trail, and of what the peo-
pie along the route had done to assist
him in carrying out his cherished am
bition to mark the trail with monu-
ments, that its memory would be for
ever preserveds.@ He said that he had
been Hospitality treated all along the
route, and especially had the school
children been interested In the work.
Many handsome monuments have
been erected, and he felt a. II his trip
has been q decided success. Mr..
Meeker said that he left his home i've
miles southwest Of this city, In Janu-
airy, 1851. He had just been married,
and he and his bride concluded that
the country was getting too thickly
settled for them to make their way
very rapidly, and they concluded to
60 West.
With yoke Of oxen and . covered
wagon they started on their journey,
spending the first winter In Iowa, and
then going forward to Washington,
whore he permanently located.
Mr.. Meeker was accompanied by his
wife on the long trip, and both en-
joyed the best Of health. The pioneer
is 76 years old. The couple expect 10
return to their Warrington home in
time to celebrate their ffty-sixth we'd
ding anniversary next May among
their children.

SUPREME COURT DECIDES
ESTHER MITCHELL Case


has been legally declared insane, but
may not be deported to Oregon because
the law ordering deportation 10 in
valid.
Suoh is the decision rendered Sat-
urday by q majority Of the supreme
court Of the state. The majority opin-
ion is signed by Justice Grow, who
wrote 1t, and Justices Dunbar, Hadley
and Rudkin. Justice Root concurs az
to the right Of the court to appoint q
lunacy commission, but expresses no
opinion on the deportation matter.
He says he doubts the propriety of
calling law void when tho validity Of
the statute was not directly in ques-
ton before the court.
Chief Justice Mount writes q brief
but vigorous dissenting opinion. hold
ing the court has no authority to ap-
point . lunacy commission, az was
done. This view Is shared by Justice
Fullerton.
Rights Of Common Law
The application Of Prosecuting At
torney Macintosh, Of King county,
for q writ to restrain Judge Frater from
signing the order finding the women
insane and ordering deportation Is the
basis for this action. In it's majority
decision the court says the lower court
is possessed Of inherent power and jur-
isdiction to conduct inquiries as to
sanity without regard to statutory au-
thority. This power, 1t is stated,
comes from the common law. The de-
portation statute il held invalid be-
cause it requires the sheriff to take
the deported person to q point without
the state, and could not legally be on
forced, as the sheriff's power ends at
the state line.
Kept to Await Developments
The decision says In part.
''These women stand charged with
q crime for which they have not yet
been placed on trial, 90 they should
be restrained within the jurisdiction
of this state, 90 If hereafter they be-
come sane they may be subject to the
further order Of the court. -
gust before the close Of the opinion
the writer says that while it was be-
ing written the court was advised of
the death by suicide Of Maud Crefi1eld
in the Seattle jail, hence as to her
proceedings are dismissed. The writ
Of prohibition is granted to prevent
the deportation of Esther Mitchell,
but as to preventing the signature of
the order that she Is insane the writ
is denied.
It is presumed there will be a mo-
tion for rehearing, and after that Ia
disposed Of some days will elapse be-
fore the remittitur il sent down to the
King county court, 80 that several
days must elapse before there can be
any further move in the case at Seattle.
