Making a plea Of pity in behalf OF
Candidate Booth the Portland Ore
gonian after reciting the
The Looier. great virtues Of the
timber magnate, says:
Yet now that he is a candidate for
United States senator. his political
opponents, for their own purposes, dig
sn the mud and mire for slander. in
nuendo and falsehood about him, and
seek to hold him up to public excra-
tion as an enemy Of public progress
and looter Of the public domain"
Very good as a plea for pity. But
the cold facts are that the charge
that MI Booth was : looter Of the
public domain did not originate with
political enemies. That charge was
preferred by attorneys for the United
States government under a republi-
can administration, and the charge
was upheld by the United states court
% appeals at San Francisco. The case
IS now before the L. s. supreme court
OH appeal by Mr. Booth.
The charge was that Mr.. Booth had
secured valuable timber claims
through use Of dummy entrymen. In
his defense Mr.. Booth made a hypo-
critical plea that several of the en-
trymen were poor relatives he wished
90 help. But it was shown in court
that the poor relatives" had been
given 500 each by the Booth-Kelley
company for timber claims worth
many thousands Of dollars The court
did not believe Mr. Booths statement
about helping his poor relatives and
IN their decision Justices Gilbert,
Ross and Morrow said:
-cNo explanation is made OF the fact
that the deeds so taken were not re-
corded. No satisfactory reason is
given Why the deeds were destroyed.
No explanation is given Of the fast
phat for a year and a half after the
destruction Of the deeds neither
PoOth nor the Lumber Company had
any conveyance from the La Rauts
'"The theory that r. A. Booth ad-
vanced the cost and expenses and
purchase price for the entries in or
der 10 assist his relatives who were
m poor circumstances, and that he
thereafter advanced money to them
Tor fhe same reason and took the
deeds as security ily comports with
certain significant facts that appear
IN the record one Of these is the
contemporaneous payment % Jordan
and the four members Of the La
Raut family Of the identical sum Of
ElO0 each al the time when their
deeds were taken. Another is that
ceithor Ethel Ia Raut nor Lucy La
Raut explained why she received the
500 Lucy testified that she did not
need il, and that when she received it
she loaned it TO her father, who paid
her interest on it. Another is that
uo another payment appears by the
Books Of the company to have been
made 10 any Of the La Rauts until
she time when the company received
new deeds from each. When the sec
ond deeds were obtained from Ethel
and Lucy in 1907 they were each
paid y25. When the deeds were OBJ
eshned from stephen La Raut and his
,nife in 1910, they were each paid
So None OF these payments were
charged against the la Rauts per-
sunauy nor were the old accounts
under their names, which had been
balanced and closed reopened, but

States Army. Major General c. Bow
Dougherty, division commander of the
National Guard of Pennsylvania, is
determined to have his officers skilled
in every phase of military training, so
far as citizen soldiery can afford to
give the time. He feels that the in
struction which will be termed as the
armory schools, and under supervision
of United States army officers on duty
with the State as inspector-instructo
will make every commissioned officer
capable, and to this end announces
that certificates of proficiency will be
awarded to those passing the tests at
the final examinations.
Any noncommissioned officer select
ed by his immediate commissioned
superior officer will also be allowed to
take the course along with the officers,
and II successful at the examinations
will be awarded certificates of eligi-
bility for promotion to higher grades.
All officers who have been commits
stoned since the last school year will
be required to take the basic course,
those who have satisfactorily COM
pleted the basic course will take the
regular course, and all officers who
have satisfactorily passed examina-
tions in given subjects of the regular
course, or hold certificates of prof.
cheney in all subjects of the regular
course, will take the postgraduate
course.
Questions for the final examinations
will be issued by General Dougherty,
and they will be held Immediately fol-
lowing the completion of the given
subjects. All officers below the grade
of major are to be examined by a
board consisting of three field officers
of their regiment All field officers of
each regiment will be tested by the
colonel, and the papers, after being
marked, will be sent to the United
States army inspector-instructor on
duty with the regiment for his infor-
nation and return as part of the regi-
mental records.
A certificate of proficiency for each
subject will be issued to each officer
when he attains an average of 81 per
cent or better.
Any officer obtaining a mark of 80
per cent. or better will be exempt for
a period of two years from the date
of examination on the subject in the
event of his subsequent promotion.
Similarly an officer making S5 per
cent. or better will be exempt for three
years and those making 90 per cent.
or better will be exempt for five years.
