P[0WS END CITIES
built" ON PAPER
Oregon Railroad Fails to Ap-
pear and Taxpayers Refuse
to Lose More Money.
By the Associat ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
BEND. Ore, October 3.-Several
mirage" cities. built on paper about
ten years ago in the sagebrush
country of central Oregon. along the
supposed route of railroad that
failed to appear, are being turned
back into acreage by refusal of own
ers of the city lots to pay delinquent
taxes.
Between the years of 1909 and 1914,
when the railroad was expected, am
bilious city planners laid out several
townsites and sold lots to people in
many parts of the United States.
Statesmen took few dollars down
and payments as low as 80 cents
week for the land.
Railroad Fail. to Appear.
When the railroad failed to appear
most of the land owners became dis
couraged and abandoned their prop
erty. Now county officials are busy
turning the towns back into acreage.
In some cases the owners are still
paying and will realize on their in
vestment and courage il the railroad
ever does build.
In the town of Imperial. one of the
mirage" cities, all but 3 per cent of
the assessed valuation has gone de-
linquent. The townsite was worth
$3.50 on the assessors books and
the taxes for 1920 were $349.2S. about
$40 of which was collected. Imperial
is sixty miles east of Bend.
Towns Are Disappearing.
Promoters of Terrebonne. another
sagebrush town. laid out 17S blocks,
with thirty to thirty-two lots in a
block. nearly all the lots twenty-five
by 100 feet, Terrebonne originally
was named Hillman, a combination
of the names of Hill and Hartman,
the late railroad magnates. There
are a few business buildings and
homes at Terrehone and the county
expects to collect about $3.50 of the
$2.S49 tax levy.
Harper. eight miles south of Bend,
with about $50 pla tied lots. has been
taken off the map and thrown back
into acreage.

URGES US. MERCHANTS
TO PLAN FOREIGN TRADE
DR.. Klein, Commerce Bureau Di-
rector, Sounds Note of Reassur-
ance and Encouragement.

Fundamental bases of American for
eign trade are sound, and. American
exporters should make ready to
prosecute foreign trade campaigns
Klein, director of the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce. DIR.
Klein said the time appears to nave
arrived when "a note of reassur-
ance and encouragement" should be
sounded.
Circulation of "alarmist views" is
impeding commercial recovery. DR..
Klein asserted, adding that govern
ment officials who have Investigated
foreign trade conditions were en-
deavoring to combat the "unjustifi-
able pessimism which seems to pre-
vail in certain circles"
What is needed" DR.. Klein's state
ment continued, 'is a discriminating
appraisal of facts-the ability to dis
regard superficial appearances and
bases of the situation"
The tendency toward 'unwarranted
depression" may be traced, according
to the director, to "the thousands Of
opportunistic adventurers who ap-
peared on all sides during the war
as just one more field for chance en-
terprise."
Such men, he said, had hastened to
take advantage of disorganized condi-
tions due to the war and had no OBJ
ject save to make immediate and ex-
cessive profits. The reaction against
such business was described as natu-
raj since no effort was made to build
future or secure relations with for
eign buyers.
The condition brought about by the
"adventitious" traders should not be
regarded as an inherent weakness,
however, DR.. Klein insisted. He dis
counted strongly the much -talked.0f
German competition, describing it as
"specter whose capacity for harm
has been much exaggerated" Depart
ment of Commerce agents have found
a marked deterioration in the quality

Calls Outlook Black.
Speaking at Sunderland Sunday,
James Henry Thomas. general secre-
tary of the National Union of Rail-
way Men and labor member of parlia-
ment, warned the workless against a
social upheaval as a remedy for un-
employment.
"At no time during the war" he
said, did the situation look so black
and dangerous as now. The next few
months will be the most difficult
period for the leaders"
Unemployment demonstrations were
held in various parts of the country
yesterday. A large body of unem-
ployed at Croydon marched to the

First Favorable Response by Tri-

Court Under New Law.
WRIT OF ERROR GRANTED

The District Court of Appeals con-

Justice Smyth announced that because
of the large number of motions await
ing action by the court the call of the
docket would be suspended until to-
morrow.

Writ of Error Granted.
The first writ of error to the Mu-
nicipal Court was granted today by
the District Court of Appeals. Under
the law which went into effect JQne l
appeals from the Municipal Court to
the District Court Of Appeals were
abolished and persons aggrieved are
now required to seek a writ of error

received.
Need Of More Justices.
The need of additional justices to
handle the immense business Of the
local appellate court is shown by a
comparison with the work of this
tribunal and that of the circuit courts
of appeals throughout the United
States. The District Court of APP
peals last fiscal year disposed of more
cases than any one of the similar courts
on the circuits. exceeding by more than
10 per cent the volume of business
of the second circuit, which includes
NV York. The local tribunal heard
800 cases, while the New York cir
cult showed only 26S and the Chicago
circuit 203.
Since the local Court of Appeals
was organized in 1893 it has passed
on 4.779 cases. being exceeded only by
the second and eighth circuits, which
heard 6,71S and 5,455 cases, respec-
lively.

ROB STORE FOR THIRD Time
Burglars Got Away With Loot in a
Stolen Motor Car.

Burglars Got Away With Loot in a
Stolen Motor Car.
Burglars who entered the Norris Z
Hanley grocery store at the corner of
Gordon street and North Topeka
avenue Sunday night, loaded about
500 worth of goods into a stolen au-
tomobiIe and got away. This makes
the third time the Hanley store has
been robbed within the last year.
Entrance to the building was gained
by chiseling a hole in the back door
thru which the robbers reached and
turned the lock. AS near as could be
ascertained today. their loot consisted
of seven sacks of sugar, six suits OF
overalls and jackets "a box of smoking
tobacco and a box of chewing tobacco,
besides a quantity of candy. They
loaded the goods into a Maxwell car
they had stolen from 1911 North Kan
sas avenue. Police trailed the car for
several blocks and found it standing
not far from the store. A few pieces
of candy were scattered on the floor,
but the goods were gone. The THE yes
left the motor running when they
abandoned the car, it was said. and a
man living near, attracted by the
length of time the car had been left
standing, turned off the ignition.
Prior to the robbery of the store and
the stealing of the Maxwell, three
other garages in North Topeka were
entered. The garage of Charles Heit-
man, 1921 North Monroe. and that If
A. T. Tice, laos North Quincy street,
were entered by breaking the locks.
but the cars were not taken. A truck
belonging to William Sherwood. 1928
North Quincy. was backed from its
garage and pushed up the alley short
distance.
No arrests have been made.
