A young man has set out to find
the ideal woman for a wife. He has
pictured in his mind the moral, men,
tai and ply sical excellencies (mostly
DhvsicaD his wife must possess. If
he keeps true to his ideal he will gain
a vast amount of experience in travel
and spend any amount of money but
his Quest will be in vain. After all
what right has he to demand the
ideal if he is not ideal himself, and
that he is not his unreasonable de-
sire conclusively shows.

RICHARD j. JOSE AT
NIXON TOMORROW EVENING

The quaint and lovable character of
a typical old New England smithy
Just such one perhaps as the poet
wrote about generations ago in the
famous old classic, "The Village
Blacksmith, will be presented in the
rural drama, "Silver Threads,'' az
the Nixon opera house tomorrow night.
Uncle Ben is the life of the village.
the sunshine of the community, the
peacemaker in time of trouble, the
oracle to be consulted on points of
learning. He is whole souled, good
natured; he is sweet singer. he is a
leader in the village choir-in fact
Uncle Ben is the pride of the village,
nothing short of that enviable and
lofty position in the hearts of his
countrymen. This is the part that is
to be portrayed by the eminent tenor
and leading man, Richard J. Jose and
in this part he is said to be given a
role that admirably fits him both tenn
permentally and physically. During
the course of the play Uncle Ben sings
a number of famous old songs that for
generations have been dear to the
hearts of the good New England
folks, among them "Abide With Me, +"
Home, Sweet Home,' "Silver
Threads Among the Gold" and, last
but not least, "Daddy,'' the last
mentioned being particularly appeal
ing in its tender melody.
The story of "Silver Threads re.
wolves about the career of a New Eng.
land girl, little Ruth, who before she
has attained her majority, is sent to
Boston for a musical education. She
treads the path of many an unfortun-
ate predecessor, the path of ruin, and
on returning to her fathers home the
stern old Puritan drives her from his
roof. Ten years later she returns in
the person of great French singer
and, her identity still unknown, she
in saving younger sister
from eloping with the very man who
had wrought her ruin. Still the old
father is relentless, and it is only
through the pleadings of Uncle Ben
that the little Ruth of the years ago
is taken to the bosom of her old father
and encircled with the arms of pater-
nal forgiveness. The story is declared
to be as good as any sermon and inter
esting each moment
1t is promised that an unusually
capable east will appear in support of
Mr. Jose and special scenery will be
employed in mounting the piece. All
of the stage settings, furniture, pie
lures and properties in the production
have been gathered by Mr.. Jose from
homes in New England, and each
piece has some dear memory of the old
home, adding charm to the play by it's

s. P. OREGON
LAND GRANT VOID

Federal District Judge Charles E.
Wolverton, at Portland, Oregon, Mon
day, decided that the Southern Pacific
and the Oregon & California Railway
companies must forfeit to the United
States government about 100000
acres of land which is valued at from
$40,000,000 to $75,000,000.
Interpreting the acts of congress
granting the land as an aid to rail-
way construction, the court held that
congress intended that this land should
be sold to bona fde settlers in tracts
not greater than 160 acres to one in
dividual and at price not exceeding
$3.50 an acre. Every contention rails
ed by the railway company has been
defeated in its fight with the govern
ment.
While deciding in favor of the fed
eral government Judge Wolverton de-
eided against the several thousand in
tervenors in the case. He held that
they had acquired no right whatever,
either by settling ON the land or by
rendering the maximum sum per claim
specified by law. The effect of this
grant lands cannot be procured by any
individual until the president or con-
gress again opens them to entry or
fling. The sixty-seven entrymen who
had gone on the land as settlers be.
fore the suits of the government were
commenced also lose their claim, and
are held to have gained no advantage
whatever by their period of settlement.
More than 5000 intervenors have
filed applications to get a portion Of
the land, but their supposed rights are
brushed aside, leaving the entire tract
open to disposition by congress, as if
it had never been offred to the rail
way interests as a grant.
In brief, the question raised by the
Southern Pacific company was wheth-
er the federal congress by a subse-
quent act had the power to make said
act precedent of the
rights conferred in an original grant.
The present suit was instituted in
1908 by Attorney General Bonaparte,
following memorial by the Oregon
legislature to the federal congress that
the Southern Pacific company, sue
cessor to the Oregon & California
Railway company, had forfeited its
rights to grant of land in Oregon
and Washington, which provided that
such grant should be sold to bona fide
settlers in tracts not to exceed 16O
acres each and at price not to exceeH
$3.50 per acre.
The company was said to have vio-
lated the provisions of the grant by
refusing to sell the land as provided
in the grant. The case dragged along
through the last three years, though
the demurrer which was decided Mon
day was filed shortly after the suit by
the government was instituted.
