SENATOR TURNER OLIVER CON-
TlNuousLY ON LOOKOUT TO

To his credit and greatly to the
benefit Of every ranoher in Wallowa

OAyer IS giving as much OF his at

II that each weed bears as many
$1,000 seeds, the danger of such
pest is apparent to every rancher
in the county.

aa.o. Oliver has made a close
this dangerous pest and
evay land holder will agree with
.e he says that a few Wig

check the encroachments
ae p n the land. SO far
- Ssla-or has observed, there
is little of the weed in Wallowa
county. But Union county is over
N with it and whole fields in
aces are choked by it and crops
lined Along the railway, the only
point at which the Senator has OBJ
served the weed in this county is
goIl the o. r. & N. station in
Joseph. Here it may be said that
al railways are subject to a maxi
Jun fine of 500 for permitting the

Washington, April 4.-Secretary Of
the Interior Ballinger has protested to
the congressional committee investi-
eating the interior department and the
forestry service, against the demands
of Attorney Brandeis for records OF his
department as IAN oblique attempt to
control the manner in which the evil
dence I shall present shall be intro
duced." Under date Of March 20 Mr.
Ballinger wrote to Chairman Nelson
stating the the requests Of Mr.. Brandeis
for papers since the inquiry began
''have been so numerous and extensive
as to result in great Inconvenience and
expense"
''That which may be described as
the prosecution in these proceedings
has now rested" continued Mr.. Bal
linger, "and evidence is how being in
troduced by counsel representing one.
From this amendment 1t is obvious that
the demands of Mr.. Brandeis can no
longer be regarded as in the further
ance Of a proper inquest, but as being
made as q mere fishing process.
LAS the prosecution has rested and
as all papers heretofore called for have
been furnished. it is respectfully sub
mitted that demands upon this depart
ment for reefs made hereafter should
not be s3owed unless % they relate
to some matters to which the evidence
now being presented in my behalf re-
lates and which records have not here
tofore been presented, (2) or the ma
ture of the evidence desired to be set
out, together with a statment OF what
the records will so show, and the names
of the informants upon whom the ap-
plicant relies for information to sup
port the demands so made"
A further protest is made by Mr.
Ballinger in a letter under date of
March 81 in response to Mr. Brandeis'
for affidavits in possession of
Chief Of Field Division Christensen. He
says: 81 repeat that in these applica-
ton made now when the evidence of
the prosecution has closed and ours has
been entered upon, I see nothing else
than an oblique attempt to control the
manner in which the evidence 1 shall
present shall be introduced. OF course
I stand ready. insofar as possible, to
with all orders of the commit
tee made after matters to which have
referred have been made the subject
Of consideration"

ment shown was at the chief oxecu.
tive's failure to clean up the red light
district, delayed action on traction
problems and other local matters. The
meeting was addressed by several
prominent local reformers. but no def
mite action was taken.
The trials OF many councilmen and
former councilmen Indicted in tho nine
ty-one true bills already returned, win
begin Monday. The trial list given
out this afternoon includes the cases
of former Councilmen Charles Stewart
and Hugh Ferguson, alleged to be
leaders in the distribution Of thervote-
buying money.
The reason given for so early trial
of the cases already In hand is that
the accused men might have no chance
to frame up defense, and also to In
cite more of them to come forward to
take the immunity bath Of confession.
The district attorney today obtained
a court order which will require the
national bank examiner to produce
of his investigations Of certain
Pittsburg banks before the grand Jury.
A petition to have the examiner de-
clared in contempt Of court unless he
furnishes the required documents was
