SUIT FOR LIBEL.
Grants Pass Councilman Sues Man
Who Accused Him of Graft.

Grants Pass, Ore-One of the
most sensational suits filed in the
circuit court in some time is one
brought by Ernest Everton, a mem
ber of the city council, against Frank
Leet for libel in the sum of $4,000.
Some time ago the city council sold
the old city hall to Frank Mashburn,
a leading merchant, for $4,000, and
the complaint alleges that following
the sale, Leet, in the presence of the
plaintiff and others, said that the
council had given away the city hall,
adding: There was Doodle in it,
and the council got the Doodle. 4"
EvertOn also charges that later in a
barber shop the defendant said:
You and the rest of the council
stole money and accepted Doodle from
Frank Mashburn in selling him the
city hall for $4,000. You are a set
of grafters. | know that you accept
ed a bribe."
Leet is also accused of having
charged that the buyer of the city
hall had offered $19,5OO for the
property, and that the difference be-
tween the bid and the 10000 paid
to the city was grated by the plain
tiff and his associates.
Both men are socialists and in the
employ of the Southern Pacific, Ever
ton being an engineer and Leet a sec
tiOn foreman. Leet owns one of the
finest ranches in southern Oregon,
considerable business property in
Grants Pass, and has quite sum out
at interest.
There has been considerable talk
that the city council sold the city
hall too cheap, but there had been no
intimation of graft, and the case will
be watched with considerable inter
est, as many prominent people will
be brought into the case. Leet has
transferred all his property to his
wife, but not until after the com
plant was filed

TOWN CAUSES DISPUTE.
Re-Running of County Line Presents
Interesting Problem.

Boise, ldaho.-The re-running Of
survey between Blaine and Lincoln
counties in this state has developed
the somewhat novel claim that in
stead of being in Lincoln county the
town of MinidOka, the metropolis of
the big government reclamation pro-
ject by the same name, is in Blaine
county.
The dispute as to the true location
of the town came up last week when
government surveyors, re-running
surveys near Minidoka to establish
lines for incoming settlers moving
onto the project surrounding Mini
doka, assert they discovered that the
boundary line between Blaine and
Lincoln counties runs about three
quarters of a mile west of MinidOka
instead of to the east, as had been
believed, with the result that Mini
doka is part and parcel of another
county instead Of Lincoln, and in fact
is in Blaine.
In many respects the exact location
of the boundary line between the two
counties is of paramount Importance
and the government will make every
effort to establish the permanent
boundary line whether the result
swings Minidoka into another county
or not. Since learning of the dis
cOvery of the surveyors, Blaine coun-
ty has been claiming Minidoka. Lin
coin county refuses to accept the sur
yeyor's claim and an interesting con-
test is on to ascertain in which coun-
tv MinidOka really is
Rising above all issues that have
come up since the discovery is that
of the wet" and dry" Lincoln
county, in which Minidoka has been
supposed to be, is dry" Blaine
county is wet" There are said to
be many thirsty people in Minidoka
who welcome the opportunity of get
ting back into wet" territory again
Liquor men who have been active
since the alleged discovery are said
to have made all the necessary prep
arations to go into Minidoka with
completely outfitted emporiums to
supply the thirsty.

STEEL AND CRATER LAKE.
Why Congress Did Not Make Appro-
priatiOB for Roads.

Will e. Steel submits a statement
to the OregOnian relative to congress
sional appropriations for Crater Lake
roads, which, with certain needless
abuse of the Washington correspond
ent OF the Oregonian eliminated, is
as follows:
Your Washington correspondent
this morning says that the appropria-
tion for roads in the Crater Lake Ma
tional Park was rejected because at
a nearing before the committee last
winter, ! acknowledged that our COM
pany had lease for hotels and that
the committee at once concluded that
we wanted roads in the interest of
our hOstelries.
ANY man of sense knows that con-
gress is not going to construct roads
in national park, unless there is
positive evidence that when finished
there will be suitable hotels to ac-
commOdate the visitors. In my inter-
view with the committee this ground
was thoroughly covered and one of
the first points to be considered was
whether or not there would be hotels
available when these roads were fin
ished My entire work in the interest
Of Crater Lake for the past many
years was canVassed, and | assured
the committee that we would keep
the hotels little ahead of the roads,
and if the members would come to
the park in 1915 | would guarantee
to satisfy them on that point. How
ever, said, we cannot be expected
to construct expensive hotels unless
there is assurance of first-class
roads
Such matters are regulated by
the government itself, which grants
leases for term of years, without
which no man or combination can
secure funds for such improvements,
and the same identical plan applies
to all national parks, and in all the
others similar leases have been
granted and are now in full force
The members of the appropriations
committee are not fools, even if your
correspondent so supposes. They un-
| derstand this situation, and appreci-
ate the necessities for such regula-
tions by the interior department.
Pardon me for a depression.
mere was never one cent spent TO
secure the Crater Lake National
| Park, that did not come out of my
| pocket, and there has never been one
| cent spent to develop it in the line
of hotels and other accommodations
! that | did not cause to be invested.
| have been rs years working on this
| proposition. | have been defeated
| hundreds of times, but | am not a
gutter If we fail on the matter at
| this time, we will be right after it
again next winter. Such efforts are
supported by at least three members
of the presidents cabinet and by a
vast majority of the people of Ore
gOn, to say nothing of the Oregonian
itself, which has been a tower OF
strength, and we propose to get this
appropriation sooner or later. Ore

ANNUAL SCHOOL MEETING.
superintendent Ackcrman Sends Re
minder for June II.

salem, ore, June I, 1912.
To the Patrons of Oregon Schools:
We do not attach sufficient inn
pOrtance to our annual school meet
ing. This year our annual meeting
occurs June II. On this day one di-
rector and the clerk are to be elected
in every school district in Oregon. |
should be very glad, indeed, to find
that many of the Oregon school dis
tricts were making the day of the
annual school meeting an important
occasion, and at the same time tax
ing advantage of being together to
talk over the problems of the schools.
The voting for director and clerk
will take place at the school house.
1t should be remembered that women
already have the privilege of suffrage
in school elections. If all the wom-
en- of the community will pack their
lunch baskets and assemble at the
school house on the morning of June
II, | am confident that the men will
be there also when the sun reaches
the meridian. OF course, the mem
bers of the family under voting age
will have to have dinner, so all will
spread out their lunches under some
pleasant shade, and enjoy dinner to-
gether
After a good dinner all will be in
the right frame of mind for selecting
the officers and discussing school af-
fairs. The patrons will have this OPP
portunity to investigate the condi-
tions of the school house and
grounds and see what repairs are
needed; whether the school house is
properly heated, lighted and venti-
lated, 'and what books and pictures
are most needed. Let us make June
| I red letter day for our district,
Yours for better schools,

Supt. Public Instruction.

MAKE AVIATION SAFE.
Orville Wright Will Carry Out Plans
of Brother.

New YOrk.-Unless the wishes of
Orville Wright are overruled by the
board of directors of the Wright
Company, the secret plans of the late
Wilbur Wright, father of aviation, to
make aerial navigation as safe and
practicable as travel by an ocean
liner or a railway passenger train,
will be carried out by Orville Wright
and Alexander Ogilvie, the English
aviator, who assisted Orville Wright
last fall in making experiments at
Kill Devil Hill, N. c., with a motor
less glider.
This fact became known when it
was announced at the offices of the
Wright Company here that A. F.
Barnes, secretary and treasurer of
the company, had been summoned to
a conference with Orville Wright.
While in New York five weeks be-
fore his death Wilbur Wright con-
fided to friends that Ogilvie probably
would join him and Orville in per-
fecting improvements which he was
confident would completely revolu-
tionize aviation.
For years Orville and Wilbur
Wright have worked to develop other
devices necessary for the perfection
of the aeroplane, which, it is known,
they both considered of as great, if
not greater, Importance than the
principle of automatic control.

REGISTRATION OPENED.
Citizens May Register Until Octo-
Der 2:S.

The registration books for the en-
rolling of names of voters in Jackson
county who are entitled to vote at
the fall election opened again Tues
day and will remain open until Octo-
Der %.
The county registration books have
been open twice and closed for a
time. They first closed April Is for
the primaries. The books opened
again April 10 and remained open
until May 19, when they again closed
until Tuesday.
1t is generally believed that the
voters of the county are pretty close
ly registered because of the interest
in the recent primaries, but there are
some yet to register and the books
will remain open until October 23 to
give them a chance to get their names
on the rolls.
