The Gates of Pearl

Beyond where the sunset splendors,
Their banners OF light unfurl.
] see, as l dream, the silver CLEAN, -
OF the City with Gates of Pearl;
And l fancy l see my loved ones
Who hath left earths maddening whirl,
To dwell in the Holy City
With its cleaning gates of pearl.
Fair gates where seeking spirits
Their weary wings may furl,
And enter the rest and the joys Of the blei
Behind the gates OF pearl.

A System That Worked Well
From Judges Library.

A man walked into a railroad office and
addressed the chief clerk, who was his
friend, and asked him If he could recon-
mend a good filing system. The chief
clerk explained the system he was using,
and his friend left. saying he would in
stall the same kind in his office.
About two weeks later the chief clerk
met his friend.

"Oh, 1t works fine" .

Not much. You see, IT is this way.
We have to spend so much time working

GELHAUS wins Ills
BATTLE FOR HOME
Charged Attorneys With At
tempt to Defraud Carpenter
of His Lies Savings
Judge Graham Decides That
Tax Sale to F. ]. GhiseIli
Was Invalid

Litigation extending over two and a
half years. during which period Frank
GeIhaus, carpenter. stood in danger of
losing. for a fault not his own, what
represented the savings Of life, ended
yesterday in judgment rendered by
Judge Graham confirming Gelhaus in
the possession Of his home and the
land upon which it stands, in Shotwell
street near Twenty-sixth. The prop
ertv is now worth $4,000.
Relying upon a tax sale on January
:. 1905. when the property was pur-
chased for sI76IO the plaintiff in the
case. Mrs /. H. Boyer, aided by her
attorneys. James H. Boyer Cher hus-
band) and H. NJ Anthony. sought to
acquire title TO the house and land.
ATTACK ON ATTORNEYS
In contestng the suit Gelhaus made
charges of fraud and conspiracy against
Boyer and Anthony, stating that Mrs.
Boyer had only a color of title to the
property and that the attorneys were
using her as cover for themselves.
In his answer Gelhaus also implicated
=
sion merchant, in the scheme, but
stated that Webster drew out after the
publication Of newspaper story. The
tax sale was made TO i. J. Ghiseli, an
. emplove of Webster's and a mere tool.
according TO the answer. Boyer after
ward bought Webster's interest and
The property was placed in the name
Of Mrs. Boyer.
Gelhaus bought the land June 6, 1904.
after getting reports from the Title in
surance guarantee company and the
City abstract company that the title
was clear. The Hibernia savings and
loan society lent him 800 on ii, also
having satisfied itself as TO the title.
DEED HELD INVALID
The sale Of the land in 1905 to Chi
was the result Of the alleged failure of
1898. to pay the second installment of
taxes for the year 1859, seven years
before Gelhaus had anything to do with
the property.
A deputy in the tax collectors office
had stamped redeemed" in the books
when, it is alleged, the property was
not redeemed. This was discovered by
Anthony and Boyer seven years later.
after Gelhaus had bought the land, it
was asserted by Gelhaus-
Judge Graham decided that the prop
erty was in fact redeemed by Mrs. Nc
Donald in 1898 and that therefore the
deed from the tax collector TO Ghiselli
was invalid. This deprives Mrs Boyer
of any title to the realty.

WATER CODE DEMANDED.

The State Grange of Oregon adopted
the following:
That it is the duty of the State of
Oregon, at the earliest possible time,
to codify and enact a complete, con-
else and definite water law, leaving to
the courts only the mere interpreta-
ton of this law on such occasion as
it might be brought into dispute;
That such water law should be based
upon the best experience of other states
and countries, such as Wyoming, Idaho
and Canada, and should include the fol-
lowing fundamental principles:
1. That no water right should be-
come vested except by direct grant
from the state.
g To provide a system whereby the
priority and limitations of every exist
ing right to the use of water can even
tually be ascertained.
8. To provide a reliable record in
some central office Of all water rights
as determined, and of new rights as
initiated.
4. That actual measurements of
bitches and streams be made as basis
for the adjudication of existing rights
and the initiation of new rights to the
surplus water, if any,
5. To provide definite procedure
whereby rights to such surplus water
may be acquired.
6. That beneficial use should be the
basis Of all rights to the use of water,
and that water for irrigation purposes
should be made appurtenant to the land
irrigated.
T. All rights to the use of water for
power development should be limited
to a period of 25 years, subject to re-
newal under certain restrictions.
8. To provide an efficient admins
trative system, with proper officers, for
the distribution of the water supply
among those entitled to it's use.

cling down six inches or so. If the soil
will remain in lump when squeezed
in the hand, irrigation is not necessary,
but if it crumbles it should be irrigated
at once. Ordinarily young orchards
should not be irrigated after the first
of September as it might force the
season. They should be given ample
time to ripen the wood. About the
time winter sets in, if the land is dry
and temperature is too low to force
plant growth, irrigation is advanta-
geous, for the trees should not go into
winter quarters with insufficient moist
ure in the soil.
