The alleged connection < f Senator
Mitchell and Hepresentatlve Hermann
with, the alleged conspiracy dates back,
it Is said, to the time when Mr. Mitchell
received the letter from "a prominent
attorney In Oregon" indicating S. A. D.
Puter as a "reaponnlble huslnaaa man of
Oregon."
The government Willi it Is said, attempt
to prove that Puter and Mitchell and
Hermann were well acquainted, that Pu-
ter was an anient supporter of Mitchell
!n the senatorial campaign of 18 8 and
that all of them have been personally
acquainted for years.
SENATOR DICTATED FALSE AFFI-
DAVITS.
In 1902, the government alleges, l'uter
went to Washington on business con-
nected with the lands of township 11-7
in which he was at that time Interested.

land office and l'uter thought that
would be of benefit to himself and his

Before he left Pot thuul, the govern-
ment will attempt to prove that he went
to F. P. Mays and secured from him a
letter to Senator Mitchell, though 111 fact,
according to the government, he was al-
ready well known to the setmtor. Arriv-
ing at Washington the land speculator
went, so evidence will be offered, to the
office of Senator Mitchell and conversed
with him In regard to having Ills claims
taken from the suspended list ar.d put
through to luitent us soon ns possible. He
told the senator, It is alleged, that he
hud already sunk a large umount of
money in the cluiins. and that Kmmu I..

hud ulsto invested ill them ut his sug-
gestion. It was necessary for him to
have aome Influence with the comni s-
sioner of the general lund office to se-
cure favorable recognition of his clulms.
and he therefore would like to have the
help of Senator Mitchell. The govern-
mem will attempt tn prove that he prom-
Ised to make It right with the senator In
the event that he couul secure the good
will and assistance of Mr. Hermann. The
government contends that Mr. Puter then
went to see Ringer Hermann, then com-
missioner, and talked the matter over|
with him. Hermann, it Is alleged, did.
not see that anything could be done to'
the lands unless some action would he
taken which would make the transaction

Into a hack, it Is alleged, and went to
the hotel to Senator Mitchell and told
him of the uilcged conversation with Mr.
Hermann. The famous Puter-Watson af-
fidavits. according to the government
were there made In the hotel of the aen-
ator and it Is alleged that Senator
Mitchell dictated the papers to bio own
stenographer and had them delivered
to Mr. Puter as soon as finished. The
affidavits, whicii it is reported, told of
the settlement of the land and its culti-
vation and the characters of the persons
making the filings, were then forged, so
the govt rument will attempt to prove,
and taken to Mr. Hermann, who. it is al-
ffed. took them under consideration.
HERMANN'S LETTER TO MITCHELL
On March 4. 1801". the government al-
leges. Mr. Harinenn wrote a letter to
Senator Mitchell, stating that he had ex-
pedited the claims, us per his •request.
This Is the letter which wks introduced
in the first trial und over the ideutifi' a -
iion of which both Senator Mitchell and
Mr. Hermann were in doubt, it 1 • also

stated that, Mi. Hermann had expedited

Where Do You Get Cold?

A bevy of girls waiting for a car were
grumbling good naturedly about the
weather.

said the girl who was wrapped up In sable
furs "If my hunds did not get so cold.
You girls always laugh ut me for carrying
a mufT. but mv lingers would simply be
frozen stiff if I did not have ope."
The girl who was dancing uneasily bat
and forth on the tips of her toes stopped
her performance long enough to say.
"And It's mv feet. I have chilblains near-
ly every winter. The rest of me is as
warm its toast.' •
The girl with tlv long ulster shivered
slightly. "My hands and feet arc all
right." she said, "but my knees are Just
like two lumps of Ice. The doctor says
It's poor circulation, but I don't see why
the blood should stop circulating at my
knees when it's whirling over the rest
of my body at a satisfactory rate of
