MAY MAKE CHANGE
IN TIME OF PAYMENTS
Desert Land Board May Ex-
lend Time Over Period
of 20 Years

Changes in the time Of payments on
the land sold by the board were made
by the last Legislature, extending the
time from ten to twenty years, and in
the future contracts to be made the
state desert land board authorized the
addition of the change in wording to
the printed contracts. With this
method of payment in operation the
state has one of the most favorable
land contracts in this business.
The contract calls for the payment
Of one-twentieth down and one
twentieth a year until paid. The in
terest is at per cent and begins to
run at the date of the contract. The
states lien against the land is for the
price of construction, or the price of
the irrigable per acre, or $40. For the
non-irrigable land the price is $3.50
per acre.
The land comes from the United
States government through the state
to the settler and forty acres is the
minimum that can be taken up and 100
the maximum. Every citizen, male or
female, over the age of 81 years has
a Carey Act right to take up land in
addition to .he desert lard and home
stead right.

BOARD TO ARRANGE
STATE FAIR PREMIUMS
Expected $2S,5OO VIII Be
Voted for This at TOmOr-
rows Meeting

1t is probable that at the meeting
of the state fair board tomorrow at
the state house that the sum of $685.
800 will be voted for the payment of
premiums at the Oregon State Fair of
1917. Should this sum be voted it would
be the largest ever appropriated for
like purposes west of the Mississippi
river, according to statement of A.
H. Lea, secretary of the board this
morning. Heretofore, the largest sum
appropriated for premiums has been
$26,S00, which was distributed last
year.
Altogether, the operating expenses
of the state fair amounts to about $780,
900 each year. To meet this sum the
legislature allows the fair board the
sum of $17 800 for premiums. The def
cit in the premium list and the general
operating expenses must be made up
from admissions and concessions. The
board did not get any of the buildings
asked for Srom the legislature and
but a small amount for improvements.
Secretary Lea is beginning to wonder
where all the money is going to come
from to conduct the fair this fall.
On account of the legislature cut
ting out the appropriation for the coli
scum, it is probable there will be no
horse show this season. The secretary
said that horsemen were demanding
higher premiums and new sets of pre-
miums are required in lines not hereto

SAYS HIS ATTORNEY
KNEW ABOUT DEALS
Testimony of BdIingsley
Shows Attorney Was Really
Party to Acts

Seattle, Wash, March 16.-Dr. Mark
A. Matthews, former moderator of the
Presbyterian church, was scheduled to
take the stand today as a witness for
the government in the booze graft con
spiracy trial against Mayor Gill, Chief
of Police Rockingham, ex-Sheriff
Hodge and City Detectives Peyser,
Poolman, McLennan and Doom.
United States Attorney Clarence L.
Reames has announced the government
will probably close its case today. DR..
Matthews will be one of the last Of the
government witnesses.
Logan Billingsley, director of the
giant bootlegging syndicate, had testi-
fled he gave DR.. Matthews $1,000 to use
in obtaining evidence 'ito help clean
up the town = and obtain statistics on
the amount of gambling and immorali-
ty that was existing under Mayor Gill
George Vanderveer, erstwhile attor
ney for the Billingsley brothers was
dragged farther into the mire of the
ease and NJ. W. Palmer, Chief Beck
ingham s chauffeur, gave testimony
contradictory to that of other govern
ment witnesses at the booze graft trial
this morning.
Testimony further involving Wander
veer brought on another bitter fight
between attorneys.
Vanderveer advised Logan and me
to 90 to British Columbia where he said
friends of his who had won out at the
last election would give us full pro
tection,'' Fred Billingsley had testi-
fled in response to a question from
Wilmon Tucker, one of Mayor Gill s
attorneys as to whether he had ever
told Vanderveer that Logan never paid
the mayor $4,000.
''Did your attorney, George Wander
veer know about the details of your
crimes as they were being committed =
asked Assistant Attorney General
Reams on redirect examination.
eyes, said Fred, che knew all
the details of our business, even look
ed over our secret hiding places for
liquor"
Fred volunteered the statement that
he would have seen Vanderveer and
his brother Logan Christmas eve when
Logan had been allowed his freedom
by Sheriff Hodge, "if Vanderveer
hadn t been drunk.
Would you be willing for Wander
veer to come here and tell all he
knows9' demanded Tucker
eyes, I would" +" replied the witness.
Logan wants to protect him but l
don It. He can tell everything so far
as am concerned, and if he does he III
be indicted for he's just as guilty as
the other defendants F."
Fred also testified that he told Chief
Rockingham of his plans to steal the
Tim Vogel car of liquor that Hodge
had stored in w. H. Pielow' s ware
house and said the chief told him to
make quick work of It and not let
Hodge know that Rockingham knew
about it.

POLK COUNTY TO HELP
MAINTAIN FREE FERRY
Judge Kirkpatrick Promises
Committee County VIII
Assist

Judge f. C. Kirkpatrick Of Polk
county has promised to cooperate with
the Marion county court and the city
Of Salem in maintaining free ferry
across the river This promise was
made TO committee appointed by
President Albert of the Commercial
Club consisting of Fred w. Steusloff,
Dan }. Fry and Z. G.. Deckebaeh.
The committee accompanied by NJ.
l.. Meyers and James L. Linn went
over the proposition with Judge Kirk
patrick yesterday. The Judges reeep-
tion of the committee was in the most
friendly spirit. The committee gave
the assurance that the city Of Salem
and Marion county would pay three
fourths of the expense of maintaining
a free ferry. With the two counties
cooperating and with the promise
given yesterday by Mayor Keyes that
the city would be>more than glad to
pay a share of the expense, there is
every assurance that within a short
time free ferry will be established.
The Polk county court has been very
prompt in building the roadway and ap-
proach for the landing on the west
side. In fact, it has been ready for
several days.
1t is probable that arrangements can
be made to lease ferry Tor given
amount and this will be decided within
day or so. The committee appointed
by President Albert was busy yester-
day working out details and was in ses-
sion this afternoon.
While it is probable that the ferry
will be brought before the
council Monday evening, the city of
ficials through Mayor Keyes have al
ready given assurance that the city
will pay a proportion of the cost and
that within week or more free fer
ry will be reality and not dream.

Gold Medals Awarded
In High School Contest

Three gold medals were won by stu.
dents of the Salem high school type
writing department today. The medals
were won by Blanche E. Applegate,
Mayme Homyer, and Opal George, for
meeting the requirements in type
writing on a Remington machine The
test was conducted by Mr.. Goldthwaite,
Remington manager for the Oregon dis
triet, and the medal given is valued at
$40. The typewriting department is
under the direction of Miss Gertrude
Walling.
In order to earn medal the young
ladies were required to write new mat.
ter for ten continuous minutes at a
rate of not less than So words min
ute with five or less errors. Miss Ap
plegate wrote total of 635 words an6
made four errors. For each error five
points were deducted, which gave her
a net number of 615 or a percentage OF
61.5.
Miss Homyer wrote a total of 649
words in ten minutes and made -four
errors which gave her a net number
of 629 words, or percentage of 62.g
per cent. Miss George wrote GAG
words, made four errors, and got net
result of 626 words, with a percentage
of 62.6.
It is probable that these gold medal
tests will be given each month. The
medals are sent out by the Remington
company.
