The Peoples Warehouse Where it Pays to Trade Save Your Coupons STORY OF PUTER PARDON OP LAND FRAUDER RECALLS HISTORY OF CASE Only Olio of a Runcii of Guilty Land Grabbers Who Was Compelled to Serve Time All Defendants Were Found Guilty Ono Fled Uio Coun try and Is Now in Prison In Far East Puter's Testimony Aided Henoy in Convictions, That the president has pardoned S. A. D. Puter, the land frauder at the request ot Frances J. Heney Is a matter of record. A short history of the crime for which he served time will refresh the reader's mind. S. A. D. Puter was arrested and convicted by Frances J. Ueney for what Is known as the 11-7 land fraud case. With him In this deal were Mrs. Emma L. Watson, Horace Mc Klnley, Marie Ware, now Mrs. Mc Klnley, Dan W. Tarpley and others. The trial began November 21, 1904, and he was convicted December- 6 and was sentenced to serve two years Imprisonment and to pay a fine of $7500. All of the defendants were found guilty, but Puter was the only one to receive sentence and the only one who has served a term of Im prisonment. McKlnley fled the country and went to China, where he was arrested and Is now being brought back to this country. On July 6, 1906, Puter was sentenced to serve two years in the county jail and he has served about a year and a half. In addlton to the jail sentence Puter was to pay a fine of J7500, but It Is believed that the .fine will now be wiped out with the pardon. Puter decided to turn against those with whom he was conncctd In his crooked land dealings, because they turned him down. He has made friends with all the government offi cials 3ince reaching that decision. There was not half-way measures when Puter decided to tell what he kned to Heney and It was through Puter that practically all of the land fraud convictions were made possible. Whatever Puter might have been he has made good to Heney. Every thing that he promised when he turned state's evidence and there Is I not a man connected with the federal government In Portland who does not speak highly of Puter. He. has been a model prisoner and has taken his niP(Me!ne without a word of com plaint. ANNUAL STATEMENT! of the PENDLETON SAVINGS BANK PENDLETON, OREGON At close of business Decmber 31, 1907 ASSETS.

Alexander Montio B. Gwinn T. J. Morris E. P. Marshall lll BUND SEHATOR FROM MUl Perhaps the most Interesting per sonality In the present senate Is Thomas P. Gore, the blind senator from Oklahoma. Doubled up In his square-armed chair, the figure Is that of a fat, pudgy boy with a round bullet head, of which the drawn, contracted brows, the long straight, prominent nose and the thick Hps are the most conspicuous features. When, with a thick hickory cane firm ly gripped In the right hand and thrust forward, the figure straightens up, long-hipped and very erect. The head Is always lifted and thrust forward. The blind senator has a way while sitting, of holding his face on a line with the action for the mo ment commanding attention for In stance, that of a senator speaking or the clerk reading. With his cane in his right hand, his left drums on the dak at which he sits. He has a way of snapping the thumb and fingers of his left hand. During his first few days in the senate alert page boys took this for a summons. The boyish-looking Oklahoma sen ator he Is In the early 40's has one characteristic unusual In blind per sons. He addresses with accurate modulation of voice the person to be is speaking. Most blind men and women experience great difficulty in "getting the range" of the person they are addressing, and frequently speak either to the right or left of him. ThuB far the blind senator has not sought to participate in the proceed ings, but as one senator put it, "he Is soaking In the atmosphere." When ready he Is expected to con tribute one "of the spectacular speeches of the session, because he Is a strong, virile speaker, a fine elocu tionist of the rough and ready sort, quick at repartee and with an amaz ing command of words. Mr. Gore has been In his seat the full length of every session since ha took office, sparing few minutes In the cloak rooms, to which senators flee to escape being bored by long winded speeches. And every minute he is In his seat "the little brown-eyed woman," Mrs. Thomas P. Gore, sits In the gallery, watching every gesture of the man to whose election she contributed more than any one else. The senator him self calls her "his eyes and right hand," and says she knows more about parliamentary law and politics than any other woman In the coun try. She accompanies him to th$ senate and takes him away at the close of the day. She takes down the speeches he dictates, attends to his mall and supplies every function that his sightless eyes cannot perform. Taking Ilia Measure. "Do you ever drink to excess asked .the girl's father. "I never touch liquor of any kind," he replied. "How about tobacco?" "I do not smoke. O have never had a cigar or a cigarette in my mouth." "Ever gamble?" "Never. I do not know one card from another." "I suppose you Bwear sometimes?" "No, sir. An oath has never passed my Hps," "Urn, All right. Come out and have a Btlck of candy with me."

United States District Attorney Elmer E. Todd, however, took the matter up with the depart ment of Justice upon the agreement of all' parties concerned, relative to a settlement without an expensive hear ing. The department of Justice ad vised Mr. Todd that If the defense would allow the expense of the spe cial master to come out of the es tate such a settlement would be sat isfactory. This met with the approv al of Mrs. Fulton and of Mrs. Adams. The signing of the Judgment was the result. the Tacoma walker and wrestler, has mapped out.
