A Hor SHcr foIlwing character
istic letter by Judge Burnett Of Corvallis
in defense Of Judge Fullerton against the
attack Of the Salem Journal, appears In
the RoseburE Review. 1t decidedly
hot and causes the Journal to declare
war on Judge Burnett also: have no
hesitation in saying 70 you frankly. shat
the article 10 an airocious libel upon an
upright, honorable man, and con-
scientious Judge. Il 10 absolutely ia'se
and without any excuse whatever, and
the man who published i, ougnt to be
indicted, for he 10 guilty Of crime more
diabolical and damnable in its ceneep-
tions than murder. Judge Fullerton
stands high in the esteem OF this COM
munity and they are indignant o.er this
dastardly attack on his good name. The
people OF this district ought TO rise up en-
mass and denounce the action oi this
pudding headed libeler in such
terms as TO make him feel the wrath oI
an insulted community.
