reason that Jesus sayings live Is be-

the true foundation. The man who

THE LAND GRANT DECISION

In TIRE land grant decision the
4 court. after rejecting forfeiture
Of the lands. says there should be IAN
Injunction against further violation
of the covenants" and adds that
there hrould certainly be no repeti-
tion OF them" The decision further
says:
I'm view of such disregard of the
covenants and gain of illegal emolu-
ment. and in view Of the government 8
interest in exact observance OF them,
II might seem that restrictions upon
the future conduct of the railroad
company and its various agencies is
imperfect relief, but the government
has not asked for more"
That is to say, the court indicts
the railroad of violating all provi-
sions Of the land grant act.
But because there are no proyi-
sions in the act requiring forfeiture
for violations of the provisions, the
court refuses to forfeit the lands to
the people.
1t declares that the railroad should
not be permitted to further violate the
grant act, and entoins the company
from doing so for period Of six
months, in which to give congress
time TO legislate on what to do with
the value Of the land above $3.50 per
acre. which the court, in effect, holds
TO belong to the government. The
purpose Of the injunction is to give
congress time TO say what shall be
done with the governments interest
In the lands.
1t is refusal by the court to give
the lands in full to the railroad, as
was requested by the midnight reso-
luton slipped through the Oregon
legislature in Its closing hours. and
presented to the court by order of the
legislature at the hearing OF the case.
\ The railroad, Of course. holds the
lands. and under the decree is to be
permitted to get $3.50 per acre for
them, though the lands cannot be sold
In lots In excess Of 100 acres and only
to actual settlers, and cannot be sold
at all until congress acts or on further
action by the district court.
The decision projects a formidable
problem upon congress, and the solu-

who was acting as orderly on the
field. He was attacked and cut of

the company while delivering an Or

IN DUTY BOUND

iWHErHER we are democrat, a
" republican or bull mooser,
We all ought to be at the Pelican to-
morrow night to welcome our gov
ernor. This is time Of national dis
,ress and strain. and the proper thing
to do is to show that We are behind
our public officials in time of peace.
so that II war comes they will feel no
hesitancy in depending on the public
for support. Party Affiliations are be-
coming largely matter OF history
anyway.
Besides, when a man Is elected to
an office he is there to represent the
people--the whole pople. and the
whole people should see that he does
that very thing. If Withycombe is
a democrat. and all the democrats
and no or few republicans turn out
to greet him, of course he would not
know the difference, but ii is not the
hospi'able thing for the republicans
to stay at home; and vice versa. also
Governor Withyeombe has proved
an efficient man thus far. and though
the calamity howlers have been busy
in districts. yet he has escaped the
wrath of most OF them Very likely
he will come in to his before many
months, but that is the American way
of doing things.
Let's all be there, and give him the
glad hand. We should have self-in-
terest enough in politics. our state
and communities to be there without
urging. Governor Withycombe is to
be congratulated on having the cour-
age to brave the elements of Central |
Oregon and an auto trip of over goo /
miles to visit this section, and We
certainly want him to go away hav-
ing warm spot in his heart for us
and our country. because some day

The facts leading up to the
Sierks' confession read like fic-
ton. George A. Thatcher, a
Portland criminologist, by untir-

brought about the strange de-

Thatcher, after carefully inves-

theories of criminology, Pender
could not have committed the
crime of which he was convicted.

capable of the deed, he declared,
and his search for the real GRIM
