Mrs. Edwards Exonerates Condemned
Man Before Jury.


Reading. Pa, June 17.-Samuel
Greason was acquitted of the murder
Of John Edwards. The large audience
t,up a demonstration and the verdict
was. received with great satisfaction.
Mrs. Kate Edwards, whose testimony
convicted Greason, her paramour over
three and one-half years ago, was on
the stand and completely exonerated
him. Mrs Greason was present from
Carlisle to attend the trial She lis
tened with disgust TO the oft-iterated
love story of her HUSBAND and his par
amour. whose confession has now ex-
oneTated him from a share in the muir
der of her husband. The two women
had never seen each other before.
John Edwards was murdered nearly
four years ago, and Greason was ar
rested several months later. His death
warrant was issued ten times. and his
case has developed into one Of the
most remarkable murder trials in this
state.
Mrs Edwards, the mother of Grea
sons child, is under sentence Of death
and IL is expected that the governor
will order her execution within a short
time Il was postponed several months
ago so that she could be used as q
witness at Greason's trial Mrs. Ed
wards fate will be decided by the
board of pardons next Wednesday.

T. G. HALEY, secretary Of the state
irrigation commission. who has con-
Quoted the fight for the Cole Irriga-
ton bill. before the legislative com
mittees. returned home this morning
feeling almost certain that the bill
will be reported to the legislature.
and voted upon, perhaps today.
The fight to get the bill ont of the
hands OF the senate committee on ir-
rigatiOn. has been a bitter one, and
Mr.. HALEY feels that the friends of
the measure have made successful
struggle. The house committee on
irrigation has been favorable to the
bill. with the exception of Sitz. of
Harney county. who objected to that
feature OF the bill which provided
for the examination of private works
by the state engineer. and also to that
feature which provided for the de-
termination of present private rights.
His objections have been answered.
and It is said that ne is now in favor
of the bill.
The strongest objection to the bill
has come from Southern Oregon.
where large concerns own all the
water that would be available for
irrigation purposes, and therefore OBJ
iect to any law which would interfere
with their large private rights. no
matter how well calculated the law
may be TO distributing water to actual
settlers, nor how greatly II would
conduce to the settlement of the idle
lands of the state
One thing that is needed now more
than any other aid 10 the bill. in Mr.
Hailey's opinion. is a frank. fearless.
Outspoken support from every mem
Der from the arid counties The peo-
pie OF the state look TO those mem
bers for support for the measure and
while there is some unfaltering sup
port among those members. there is
also a lukewarm feeling among sew
eral delegations which should give
place to hearty. outspoken support
Mr. HALEY has been nj Salem for a
week. arguing for this bill. explaining
its details to inquiring members. and
brushing away frivolous objections in
terposed by representatives of pri-
vate companies which are on the
ground knocking against II. He has
found most of the members willing
to listen to the advice Of the recla-
nation department in saying that
Oregon must have a more modern
law. before she can expect govern
ment irrigation. The matter will
come TO a final test today or tomor-
row.
