FILES ON HOMESTEAD
IN HEART OF PORTLAND
Aoquiam Man Discovers vacan
Fraction on tho Willamette
River and Begins a Contest

HOQUIAM, April S.-Verne Smith
who is visiting here for a few days
is holding down a homestead in the
heart of Portland.
Reading of the filing of a home
stead by the mayor of St. Johns, a
suburb of Portland, on a strip OF
waterfront the original settlers had
overlooked, Mr.. Smith began a search
of the land Office records and dis.
covered that fraction containing
S.75 acres on the river front of Port.
land Immediately opposite st. John
was also vacant This tract has a
frontage of 600 feet, and as adjoin.
ing property sold at 500 front foot
Mr.. Smith concluded it was worth
using his homestead right on.
The land Office refused his appli.
cation for entry, saying the land was
not open for location. Further in.
vestigation by Mr.. Smith showed a
man had squatted on the tract a few
days before but had not compiled
with the legal requirements, so Mr..
Smith instituted contest proceedings.
He believes he has both law and pre-.
cedent on his side, and will win the
case.

ARE POSTPONED
President Not Likely to Send
Washington Names to
Senate Soon
MORE. TIME IS NEEDED
William Hickman Moore's
Nomination Held Up Be-
cause of Protests

WASHINGTON, April ct is be-
lieved to be doubtful, tonight, wheth.
er any nominations of local import
ance to the state of Washington will
be sent to the senate by Presiden,
Wilson at the opening of the extra
ordinary session of congress tomor
row.
With the exception of the numer.
GUS postoffice vacancies throughout
the state, the federal judgeship, the
district attorneyship and the Seat
tie postmastership are the only i'm
portant offices in the state which are
now vacant.
Appointments Recommended
National Committeeman Pattison,
States Chairman Hugh C. Todd and
Charles G. Heifner recently recon-
mended the appointment of William
Hickman Moore. of Seattle, to the
federal judgeship; Maurice Lang.
horne of Tacoma, as district attor.
ney, and F. A. Mcdonald as postmas-
ter OF Seattle.
1t is understood, however, that
President Wilson is not ready to fl!
these places and that it will be q
number Of days, and perhaps two or
three weeks, before nominations for
these places are sent to the senate.
Time Needed
With rgard to the Seattle post
mastership, the delay is caused be-
cause Of the fact that Postmaster
General Burleson has not yet had
time to make definite decision with
regard to that Office. He indicated
this week that he was considering
postoffice vacancies by states, and
that the state of Washington had
not been reached and probably would
not be for some time.
Object to Moore.
With regard to Mr.. Moore, how.
ever, the situation is different. AL
though Mr.. Moore has the support
of Mr.. Pattison, Mr.. Todd and Mr..
Heifner his nomination has brought
forth a number of protests, and there
is grave doubt whether President
Wilson will abide by this part of
the Observation-Disclosures slate.
The appointment of a district at
torney probably will be delayed un-
til after the federal judge has been
named.

Umpity Boom! Boom! Then the Turtle Let Ga

NEW YORK.-Any boy from the

thick as June bugs. could have told
Daniel Holmes that the bow end of 4
Swapping turtle is no place to loaf
around, especially when the weather's
clear.
Daniel comes from Coney Island,
though, and anybody'll tell you they
know more about soft shell crabs
down there than they do about snap
ping turtles. Coney island being a
swapping turtle's idea of no kind of
place to inhabit.
Be that as 1t may, however, there
arrived at Frederick Brencke's fish
market at West First street and
Sheepshead bay road, Coney island,
two of the biggest man-eating turtles
Coney ever saw. One weighed $50
pounds and the other 256. The big
one evidently made up his mind he
wasn't going to be soup. Holmes
hands fascinated him and he waited
his chance. He didn't have to wait
long. Holmes fingers were soon care.

had firm grip, however
