Land Fraud Cases Resume in Federal Court at Portland
More than 30 land fraud cases await trial in federal court in Portland as United States Attorney William C. Bristow returns from San Francisco and Los Angeles after conferences with Secretary Garfield and Franela J. Heney. The Oregon Daily Journal says a revival of the Oregon land fraud prosecutions may begin within two months. It is unclear if Heney will join the Portland prosecutions due to heavy workloads in graft trials. Bristow’s southern trip is viewed as favorable for securing larger appropriations and extra help for the federal effort.
