SYMPATHY IS
WITH MITCHELL
Young Man on Trial
For Murder of
"Holly Roller"

Seattle, Wash, June 25.--The case of
George Mitchell, the youthful slayer OF
Edmund Creffield, and the avenger Of
the wrongs done his two sisters by the
holy roller" prophet, was called for
trial today No criminal case in many
years has attracted so much attention
throughout this section as that of
young Mitchell. and the trial will be
followed with intense interest. The ac-
cused youth has hosts of sympathizers
in Portland, Corvallis and other Ore
gon points where the people were &C
quainted with the odious practices and
teachings of Creffield. and substan-
tial fund has been raised for Mitchelfs
defense.
The killing Of Apostle Joshua" as
Creefield called himself, occurred on
the streets Of Seattle some two months
ago. 'Tve got my man. Am in jail"
was the unique telegram the young
murderer sent to his father at Corval-
| lis.
Il came here from Portland for the
purpose of killing Creffield," Mitchell
explained after his arrest. Il saw him
and his wife on First avenue and shot
the man. That's all there is to 1t. He
ruined my two sisters and l took his
life"
Shortly before he was killed Cref-
field had been released from the peni-
Tertiary, after serving two years for
Illicit relations with women followers.
Prior to his conviction the peculiar
ceremonies Of the "holy rollers behind
closed doors and by the light of can
dies became so Objectionable to the
people Of Corvallis that the authori-
ties were appealed to. Tales too re-
voting to be put into print were told
Of the practices habitually INDUCED in
by Creffield and his followers. Many
Of the latter were wives. sisters and
even young daughters and numerous
families were broken up before Cref-
fields career was brought to an end.
Many of the holy rollers were sem
to the insane asylum. Among then
was Creffield's wife. then Ida M
Hurt She recovered, and got di
vorce while Creffield was in the peni
Tertiary. On his return. however, sh'
remarked him in Seattle despite tn
] protests of her family. She declares
he was guiltless of Mitchelrs charges

FoAT GARDENs AS LESSONS.


 Russian Educators Take New Step
 lB Uplifting the Pean@antry.
 The teachers of agriculture in Rus sla have revived the floating garden of past ages, but instead of being a means for the lavish expenditure of money the object Is one of utility entirely. These teachers were iui- pressed with the fact that the most prosperous farms lay along. water courses, so they resolved to experiment with large floating gardens, which should be laid out on barges of great width.
 This was accordingly done and .as soon as the ice melted these experi- ment stations drifted down the stream to warmer climates, where the seeds sprouted and the grain grew and ripen- ed. As each barge floats along 1t stop at each village, where the church bells are rung to announce its arrival ana the people flock on board. led by the mayor. The beds containing vegetables and grain are inspected and the teach CTS explain how the various plants are grown. During the talk many ques- tions are asked by the peasants, which the teacher endeavers to answer clear ly,
 If the peasans have no seed with which to experiment. 1t is freely sup piled to them. Russian educators are highly pleased with the experiment station and have decided that 1t Is the most effective method yet discovered for popularizing intelligent farming Among. the peasants.

During the visit of the legislative

was not upon the program. The CEN
trail figure in the episode was con-
wet and his story is one that is full
Of human interest. 1t is one that
shows the strange vicisitudes of life
shows the strange vicissitudes of life
those who heard it.
In 1873 Peter p. Lowe was a stu,
dent NJ the Iowa Agricultural college
at Ames. He was the son of a for'
nter governor of that noted state, and
in later years his father was SUI
preme judge. Young Lowe was
bright. good-natured, and blessed with
plenty Of money. Consequently he
was popular among his fellow stu
dents. Another student at that time
and a classmate of Lowe was w. Il.
Ellis, now congressman from the SEE,
ond district of oregon. In the spring
OF rs Mr.. Ellis left the school at
Ames to enter a law college and for
S2 years he had not seen his student
friend. 1t was he whom he met Tues
day, for the convict mentioned above
was none other than the son OF Iowa's $
former governor.
Under the name of c. D. Emory,
Peter P. Lowe is now serving a 10,
years sentence within the walls of the
Nalla Walla prison for the crime of
burglary, He is now 81 years Of age
and life has not the charm for him
that it had in the days when he was a
hale fellow we'll met at the Iowa Agri-
cultural college.
Three years ago Lowe was sentence
ed to the penitentiary from Tacoma
under the name of Emory. At the
time his picture was published IN the
newspapers, and in spite of the years
and the assumed name, the likeness OF
his old friend was recognized by Judge
Ellis.
While al the penitentiary Tuesday
Judge Ellis looked at the picture OF
Convict Emory, in the prison gallery.
He was sure of the mans identity
and Governor Mead directed that the
prisoner be brought out. 1t was the

INDIANS ARE REGISTERING.
Debatable Question as to Their Right
to Vote I'm Idaho.

Indians are being allowed to regis
ter in Idaho county and will cast their
ballots in the coming election. says
the Grangeville Free Press. This
matter was decided saturday, after
discussing the matter at some length.
The matter was brought up by the
refusal of several registrars in the
country to allow Indians to register
who did not hold property. The rule
has prevailed here to allow Indians to
register who held property. AS soon
as other Indians who did not hold
property found that their brother In
dams We're registering they demanded
the same rights
Inquiry was made in Nez Pevce
county, and II could not be learned
what the policy was there. A con-
ference was held here at which Pros
ecutng Attorney Hardy was present
and it was decided to allow Indians
to register in Idaho county for the
coming election.
Inquiry was made by the Evening
Teller relative to the voting of In
dians in this county. County Auditor
Lydon when asked concerning the
matter, replied that 1t was debated
question. If the Indians had severed
their tribal relations with the gov
ernment, they have right to regis
ter. If they have not, they have no
vote.
There are very few instances in the
country where the Indians have de-
manded to register. The impression
is general among the Indians, and
among the people in the neighborhood
where Indians live, that they will have
/ to pay taxes If they vote. The mat
ter of Indian taxation has been as
! disputed as this question, and the
| matter has usually been settled by
| telling the redskins that they can vote
If they wish to pay taxes on their
| property. They have not thought the
privilege worth the price and the mat
ter has rested at that.

Habit-forming Medicines.

Of the so-called patent medicines con-
tanning injurious Ingredients as broadly
published in some journals OF more or
less influence. this publicity has certainly
been OF great benefit in erousing needed
attention TO this subject, 1t has, In .
considerable measure, resulted In the
most intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus-
pected OF containing the injurious ingre-
dents complained OF. Recognizing this
fact some time ago, DR.. Pierce, OF Buffalo,
N. Y, "took time by the forelock,' as IT
were, and published broadcast all the
Ingredients OF which his popular medi-
cines are composed. Thus he has COM
pletely forestalled all harping critics and
all opposition that might otherwise be
urged against his medicines because they

thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper II will be seen that

they contain any narcotics or injurious
