With scarcely a word against the

nounced a society which winks at so

In this statement, which was
agreed upon at sea yesterday, they
declared that they would expect the

left Mexico because they feared
from the messages sent to them by
President Wilson that conditions had
become intolerable In other parts OF
Mexico, and that those conditions
were spreading in their direction
Did Not Fear Violence.
All of them emphatically declared
that up to the time of their depar-

so far as their own communities
were concerned, they did not have
any reason to fear violence

CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT

Judge Jewell states that the let

concerning the arrival of Mrs. Krus-

been received by him, but that the

under misapprehension of the
facts. He says that he has no knowl-
edge of how Mrs. Krussell arrived in
Portland, as she was not assisted
there by Josephine county, and that
the criticism from the north was un-
warranted Mrs. Krussell and her
children were cared for in the county

months ago but she had not recently
been charge of the county. and was

TROUBLE FOR SOCIAL WORKER

San Francisco, Sept. 16.-The ar

prominence as a social worker may
be expected soon on an extortion
charge in connection with the case
against A. B. Widney, Los Angeles
real estate broker, accused of pro-
fitting from the earnings of fallen

Judge Shortal's court today.
The social worker, it was said had
secured $500 from Widney's father.
Judge r. NJ. Widney, who, however.
Immediately notified the district at
torney Of the transaction. and it was
added that she was now demanding
$4,000 to save the younger Widney
from prosecution. Judge Widney. il
was understood had arranged with

BOARD OF EQUALIZATION.
Continued from Page /.

60 acres alfalfa at $50 per acre, and
291 other acres at 50 per acre, in
cluded in this latter being some or
chard.
In distinction to these assessed
valuations on the north side OF the
lower Rogue, the committee calls at
tention to the following assessments
on the south side of the Rogue and
along the Applegate: Hays Broth
ers, SO acres orchard and alfalfa, SO
per acre; Leonard Orchard Co., 40
acres att s6j and 2S acres at $50 per
acre; John Robinson, 32 acres or
chard and alfalfa at s73 per acre; X.
NJ. c. Neill, so acres at s65 per acre;
C. +. Selleck, 3S acres at s55, and
A. H. Carson, 40 acres vineyard at
$40 per acre.
II is understood that the commit
tee does not protest the assessments
on the lower Rogue i'm general, but
that the chief demand is that assess
ments which it considers too low be
brought mp to a consistent" basis.
The Board OF Equalization has cited
number of those named to appear
before It Saturday and show cause
why their assessments should not be
raised, those cited including the
HAYS Brothers, Leonard Orchard Co,
K. NJ c. Neill. C. f. Selleck, A. II.
Carson, Dixie Ranch and Dimmick es-
tate
The Dimmick estate property lies
just west of town and is assessed at
$40 per acre The contention in re-
gard to this property is that the
county recently purchased 23 and a
fraction acres of It as an addition to
the Granite Hill cemetery, paying
800 per acre for it, and that If 800
is a reasonable cash value, which is
the basis of assessment, then the
balance of the property should bear
a greater assessment than $40 per
acre.
Mr.. Quaif Has Kick.
From Eugene there comes an affi-
davit from William II. Quaif, who
says that he is the owner of a quar-
ter section of rough land. This, ac-
cordng to Mr. Quaif's affidavit, was
assessed at $1O.5O per acre when
its true value is not over $6 per
acre" In fact, Mr. Quaif offers to
make good and sufficient deed to
any member of the Equalization
Board who will first offer him 81 per
acre. He said that he had had it on
the market for a number of years at
that figure, but could find no buyer.
When Mr. Quaifs affidavit comes be-
fore the board there will be a joker
attached in the form of a letter
which he wrote in 1912 TO l.. L. Jew
ell of this city regarding this piece
OF property. Mr. Jewell had thought
he could use the quarter section in
question and had written Mr. Quaif
asking If 1t was for sale. Mr.. Quaif
answered that it was, and that his
price was $4,000 cash" As a mat
ter Of fact. the quarter section is
now on the roll as grazing land, as
sessed by Mr.. Pollock at $1120. or
81 per acre, so that the Eugene man
has no kick coming.
