Freighting to Eugene.

The presence of eleven teams at the Orc.
gon Pacific dep, last Saturday that we've be.
ing loaded with freight for Eugene, which
had been shipped from San Francisco, re-
minded one cf the scenes of a year ago,
when the same system of transportation
was put in operation hy the Eugene mer-
chants 1t was tried first in hopes that the
s. p company would he induced to lower
the tariff On merchandise between Albany
and Eugene, but they would not, and as
he transportation from Corvallis by wagons
cost less thin ly rail from Albany, the
scheme was on,inued until the fall rains
set in, which nee, ssitated return to the
railroad company for moving their freight
Su! srquently, however, the steamer Eugene
was luilt and placed on the line between
Portland and Eugene and large portion of
business for that city, both from Portland
and San Francisco via the Oregon Pacific
to Corvallis, has since been taken care of
by the steamer But the river during the
past few weeks has reached such low
stage that it "as impossible to operate her
longer above this city, consequently teams
will perform the service until the upper
river again reaches boating stage. About
sky five tons of freight arrived by last
steamer to be forwarded from this city by

him guilty. Can anyone fathonl the
wretched prevarication of the governor
when he attempts to justify his act by
saying SIT appears to me that if the
courts sentence impotent old men to the
penitentiary for rape OH the unsupported
testimony of crazy girls, it is a proper
case for executive c1enency." No one
was ever sent to the penitentiary in Ore
gon or anywhere else Oh such testimony,
and the governor knows it. He also
knows that every one who reads his
statement knows that he knows it. He
knows that this case has no kind of
similarity to the one he has imagined
for his defence. There was testimony
enough to convict Burleig'l a dozen
times over, before any jury in the state.
Besides the little girls story, competent
physicians testified that she had been
so brutally outraged, that she might
never regain her health. The poor little
thing seems to have been reared i'll a
nest of devils of whom Burleig'l was
the chief. The parties who by their afli-
davits, assisted by Pennoyer, have Sc
cured his release, did all they could TO
prevent his conviction. With the excep-
ton of Judge Kelsay, who was his attor-
ney, they are persons whose testimony
is utterly unreliable in such a case and
should not longer be allowed to control
this poor little misguided ten-year-old
child. The people are wondering what
outrage the governor will commit next,
and nothing but healthy public senti-
nent and law abiding citizenship pre-
vents their taking a little executive
authority into their own hands and Civ
ing him coat of tar and feathers which
he SO richly deserves. CITIZEN.

To THE EDIToR:-In the Oregonian of
the 18TH inst, the thing we call governor
offers to outraged humanity an excuse
for turning loose one Of the most con-
temptib1e and fendish criminals that
ever disgraced any country. He says he
has received afidavits favorable to tie
wretch from Colonel Kelsay, his counsel
when on trial, Burleigh's wife and the
poor little girls father and stepmother.
All these, except Kelsay, testified before
the jury which convicted. Had they
not been known to be so low as to be
deprived of - nor., fs.isa~and the

toward her, and if thele had been no

Views of Each Regarding the
J Pardon of Burleigh, the
Rape Fiend.

Regarding this matter Mr.. Condor
writes the Oregonian from Newport, un-
der date of the 18TH inst. as follows:
In your issue of the nth instant ap-
pears an item from Salem stating that
c. w. Burleigll, convicted i'll Lincoln
county May S, 1894, of the crime of rape,
had just bee: pardoned by Governor
Pennoyer, and further stating thaE the
reason stated by the governor was that
'the prosecuting attorney did not think
the prisoner guilty" Will you allow me
space to state that the prosecuting at
torney has at no time doubted the guilt
of the scoundrel whom the governor has
just pardoned. His victim was deli
cate child of ten years. I have, during
my two terms of office, recommended
the pardon of but one man, and I desire
that Governor Pennoyer shall have full
credit for this last subversion of justice.
Burleig!l was plainly guilty, and to turn
such fiend loose upon. the people is
itself a crime.
There is either a mistake i'll the report
of the reason assigned by the governor
or wilful misrepresentation upon the
face of the record
AS the governor has been abusive i'll
his official correspondence with me upon
tkis subject, deem it possible that he
has not been overly scrupulous i'll this
feature of the matter.
