BEANS SELECTION
PLEASES JUDGES

The appointment of Judge r. s.
Bean as new federal judge for the
district of Oregon is eminently salts
factory to all the present officials of
the federal court, says The Journal.
"The president could not have made
wiser selection" said Judge Charles
f. Wolverton this morning. 81 serv-
ed with Judge Bean on the bench of
the Oregon supreme court of appeals
during II 1-2 years Our relations
are of the friendliest. He is quick and
accurate in judgment and possessed
of keen discernment. esteem
Judge Bean highly, personally. He
is possesses sterling qualities and is
altogether manly. In addition he is
a jurist of no mean ability. possessed
of calm, judicial mind and a great
knowledged of law His appointment
is ideal and I am vetremely glad to
learn of it,: I could not have been
better pleased"
Judge McCourt Pleased.
United States District Attorney
John McCourt was delighted with the
| appointment. "He is all that could
| be desired" de declared. mo state
ment expressive of my pleasure in
| learning of this appointment could
be made too strong. He is eminently
we'll fitted for the place; he is emf
nently worthy of it. I have known
Judge Bean during many years, and
my long acquaintance has only added
| to my high regard for him. I am
sure that his relations with all of the
officers of the court will be extreme
| ly pleasureable."
The act authorizing the president
to make the appointment of an ad-
| ditional federal judge for the district
of Oregon was passed March 2, 1903.
This act provides that the new judge
shall share duties equally with the
presiding judiciary and that they
| shall decide between themselves as
to just what duties will be divided
among them. In the event of a disa-
greement, reads section 4 of the act
the senior judge of the Ninth district
shall make the division.
Need Another Judge.
The need of an additional Judge
has received emphasis from the great
amount of work which has accumu-
lated in excess of what one judiciary
can dispose Of. Judge Wolverton
stated this morning that the work of
the court was much in arrears, al
though he has been working practi-
cally night and day in order to give
proper attention to all the matters
which have been brought before him.
The appointment of Judge Bean will
take a great load of work from Judge
Wolverton and will give him chance
to perform his duties in a manner
much more satisfactory to himself.

Price of Land.

The price Of this land is only $4,000 per
acre, WHICH INCLUDES A PERPET-
UAL WATER RIGHT AND PRoPOR-
TIONATE OWNERSHIP IN THAT SEC
TON OF THE IRRIGATION SYSTEM
UNDER WHICH THESE LANDS LIE.
Taking into consideration the rare
quality of the soil, the ideal climate, the
easy terms Of payment and the prices
asked for irrgable lands in other parts
Of the United States. this price is eNcep-
tjonaly low. In fact, only 25,600 acres
OF this land will be sold at this price.
Those who buy now. before the irriga-
ton canal IS completed. before the rail-
roads arc built, will get the bottom price,
while those who arc not so fortunate as
TO get in al the start will have to pay
$1,000, 5000, $4,000 and even $4,000
per acre.
There is a splendid investment feature
TO this proposition for tho man who buys
now. because the price ut which this land
sells today is a very small part of the
price 1t will sell for III five or ten years.
As 10 what this land will be worth in a
few years frOiu now can best be asccr-
tanned by comparing it with irrigated land
