RESERVATION HORSES REPORTED NANCY

For years the farmers and stock
men of this county have complained
bitterly because of the wide preva-
lence of mango among the horses of
the reservation and the danger to out
side stock resulting therefrom. Dur
Ing the past few days these COM
plants have been repeated and
among other things it is declared
that several NANCY Indian ponies
were seen upon the streets a few days
ago.
This morning DIR. S. w. Mcclure,
chief Of the federal quarantine work
In the northwest, was interviewed
and stated the attitude of the gov
ernment in the matter. He said:
when we get assurances that the
state will take measures to eradicate
the scab. or mango, that exists among
the horses off the reservation, we
Will place an inspector on the reser-
vation during the time of the annual
spring roundup and all horses affect
ed will be isolated.
If the percentage of diseased
horses Is large enough we will require
all the horses of the reservation to

be dipped. Otherwise only those af-
fected will be dipped. Crude petrol
cum, Beaumont OIL is generally used
for this Dip"
According to DR., Mcclure, the bu-
reau of animal industry has full au-
thority over the stock upon reserva-
tions, but 1t is always the policy of
the bureau to insist that the state do
the same for the outside region that
the government does upon reserve
Whether or not there is any mango
among the horses off the reservation
he declares he does not know, but
should ii be shown that there is none
or but very little. he says he will
place an inspector on the reservation
without waiting for any state action.
Under the present state law the
veterinarian has now but little au-
thority and there is no adequate law
regarding diseases of stock, except
ing the sheep scab law. 1t is held
by those who have investigated the
subject closely that general law
should be enacted giving the state
veterinarian full power to require
measures against all kinds of conta-
gious livestock diseases.

This afternoon the Haaga trial 1,
being brought to a close and Il ha,
proven the hardest contested crimi
nal case the circuit court has seen ir
a year. This afternoon the defense
concluded its case by calling a hos
OF witnesses to swear TO the good
character Of the defendant
Among those who said Haaga's
record for honesty and for truth and
veracity was good were NJ. NJ. wy
rick, Z. p. Marshall, ]. w. Maloney
T. J. Morris. A. B, McCarty and last
upon the list. w. j. Furnish, presi-
dent OF the Inland Irrigation compa-
ny, for which corporation Haaga has
been foreman.
At the conclusion OF the defense's s
case several of their witnesses were
recalled for cross-examination by
District Attorney Phelps.
In a general way Haaga's defense
consists of a detailed denial of the
thefts by the defendant himself, the
testimony of many witnesses upon
minor points favorable to him and
testimony as to his previous good
record.
Yesterday afternoon Haaga finish
ed his own story and from that time
until noon today the time was taken
up with witnesses who were intend
ed to substantiate the details OF his
account Mrs. Rose Daulphin, who
was the cook at the irrigation crews
camp and is said to be relative Of
Haaga, was perhaps the most import
ant witness.
When questioned regarding the
skirt that had been so much in evil
dence during the trial Mrs Daulphin
said she had seen 1t in Kansas City
seven years ago soon after Haaga
had purchased II. Another witness
testified she had seen the skirt while
Haaga was on the Rooper ranch two
years ago. The skirt is one Of the
states exhibits In the present case,
and according to the George & Mil
Ter store people was stolen from their
stock.
This forenoon r Atturbury was the
first witness called and after which
the following people were placed on
the stand for brief testimony: Chas.
Morrison, Joe Morrison, E w. Jew
EFT, ]. B. Bramwell, Guy Jewett,
John Swanson. Mark Yates, Asa B.
Thomson, Mrs. Asa B. Thomson. Will
Wyrick, Joe Hoskins and C. E. Ad-
ans. Several of these Were recalled
during the forenoon.
Just before noon Colonel J. H. Ra-
ley in behalf of the defense, announc-
ed they were through with all the tes-
timony for the defense excepting a
number of witnesses for "a particular
line, presumably concerning Haaga's
character.

WANT CHANGE OF VENUE.
Financiers Claim Prejudice Exists
Against They I'm Kings County.

New York. Feb. 5.-Another phase
of the case against John G.. Jenkins.
sr., John G. jenkins, jr Frank Jen-
kins and Frederick Jenkins, the In
dicted officials of the Williamsburg
and jenkins trust companies, will
come up tomorrow, when a motion
for a change of venue will be argued
in Mlneola.
The change of venue is demanded
on the ground that the defendants
cannot receive a fair trial in Kings
county, owing to the feeling inspired
against them because of their connec-
tlon with the suspension Of the insti
tutions OF which they were directors.
Conspiracy is the charge on which
the defendants were indicted. 1t is
alleged that they conspired to use
illegally the funds OF the two trust
companies.

misten and the government irriga-
tion project on the occasion of the
opening of the great reservoir the
first week in June, is now almost as
sured. The exact date for the excur-
sion has not been fixed and will de-
pend largely upon the date upon
which the project is completed.
At the meeting of Pendleton Com
mercial association last evening the
transportation committee of the as
sociation was instructed by the meet
ing to make arrangements for the
excursion and plans are now on foot
for the event.
In conversation over the telephone
today with Engineer John T. Whistler
of the Umatilla project, the transpor-
tation committee was informed that
the project would be completed and
the reservoir filled for the first time
during the first week In June and
that the government would be glad
to cooperate with the association in
arranging for a monster excursion at
that time.
Water will be turned into the dis
tributing canals of the system in a
few weeks, perhaps by March /, and
1t Is the sentiment of many of the
business men of the city that an ex-
cursion should be run to Hermisto,.
on that occasion, also to give people
an opportunity to see the projecr in
its unfinished state, with the big ex-
cursion to the finished project In
June. 1t is possible that an early
spring excursion will be run and the
committee will give it due publicity.
If such is decided upon.

pired term of ]. S. Mclaughlin of

composed of Bert Huffman, ]. f.
