Jury which has been in session dur
ing the past week concluded its la
bors, and the following is its final re-
port submitted this afternoon to Judge
II. J. Bean:
In the circuit court of the state Of
Oregon, for rmatilla county.
In the matter of the court and
grand jury drawn for the January
term. 1907
To the honorable II. J. Rean, Judge:
We, the grand jury for the January
term, 1907, herewith make our final
report as follows:
Twelve Indictments.
We have been in session one week
and have examined a great number
OF witnesses and considered many
mat.crs and complaints presented to
us, and in some cases have returned
true bills and in other cases we have
thought the evidence insufficient on
which to base an Indictment
We have found and returned to the
court 12 true bills and one not true
bill.
So far as we know we have consid-
cred every matter of criminal nature
where any reason for investigation has
been brought to our attention.
We have visited the county farm
and hospital for the poor and as far
os we are able to ascertain we find
said institution well managed and the
inmates properly cared for.
Some Recommendations.
We have not made an investigation
of the different offices or records OF
the county for the reason that such
examination would be of little benefit
without the assistance of an account
ant for sufficient time to audit or
check the books of the different Of
ficials. In this connection. however
we recommend that some suitable
system of bookkeeping be established
whereby one office may be check
against the errors of another office
Of the county, and that the county
court ascertain the most practical
system and that same be established
and thereafter the public records be
audited at least once every year.
We would also recommend that
some protection be placed about the
door leading from the sheriffs office
into the county Jail sc that persons
visiting the sheriff's office cannot so
easily pass saws or other articles from
the outside to prisoners within, and
in that way greatly lessen the danger
of jailbreaks and the considerable ex-
pense incident thereto.
We also wish to recommend to the
delegation from Umatilla county in
the state legislature that they favor
and work for the passage of some bill
amending the present statute In re-
gard to the Sunday closing of saloons
and business houses so that such
statute may be relieved Of its many
Inconsistencies.
We would also recommend to such
delegation that provision be made for
the appointment of a deputy district
attorney for Umatilla county. We
find that the business of the county
Is such that II is entitled to have
regularly appointed deputy district
attorney whose duty It will be to at
tend to the interests of the county
and state during the absence OF the
district attorney or when such dis
trict attorney is otherwise engaged.
We have been asked to make GER
tain recommendations in regard to
certain evils claimed to be existing
within the city of Pendleton, but
there has been no evidence presented
sufficient to warrant us In saying
more than that we believe that the

Rowley Jury Disagreed.

After having been out for 10 hours
the jury in the case against Jesse
Rowley, charged with robbery, re-
ported this forenoon that they were
unable to agree and were accordingly
discharged by Judge Bean
The case against Rowley was given
the jury about 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon and all during the after
noon and evening the IL men voted
In vain. 1t is reported that at first
the ballot was eight for conviction
and four for acquittal. while upon the
last ballot taken this morning the
vote was nine to three for conviction.
After having struggled with the
problem until late last night the
1urymen lay down upon couches in
the jury room and passed the night
alternately mapping and playing cards.
Thic morning balloting was again re-
sumed, hut with no better results. It
IL said that there were several men
on either side who declared they
would never change their views or
their votes. Accordingly about 10
O'Clock w. r. Taylor, the foreman,
reported that the jury had agreed to
disagree.
Unless Rowley should change his
plea to that of guilty, he will have
another trial, probably at the next
term of court.
Today's Session.
Early this forenoon the indictment
against Andrew Manning was returned
and he was thereupon arraigned. A
plea Of not guilty was made by his
attorneys.

"A CRISIS IN THE LABOR MOVE
MENT.

A writer in a prominent economic
Journal, in treating the Haywood trial.
calls It crisis in the labor movement,
involving the familiar issue OF vio-
Ience and coercion in the progress of
labor disputes. The principles at issue
are far more reaching than the convic-
tion or the clearing Of Haywood Of
the crime of numbering Ex- Governor
Eteunenberg.
The question at issue to which the
Haywood trial has given tremendous
emphasis, is whether the labor move
nnent shall continue as an independent
force in the community, answerable to
itself alone, or whether 1t shall find its
place in society and be governed by its
susages and customs. The trial will do
much to draw a sharp line between
responsible and irresponsible union
ism, between revolutionary and law
respecting unionism. The state will
not and cannot tolerate a sovereign
power outside Of itself-civilization
comes to grief when the mob prevails.
The union movement will have to
alter its course radically to avoid a
FAR greater setback than It received In
1885, when the knights of Labor met
their downfall and again a few years
later when II pitted itself against the
combined employers of the country
upon the closed shop isue. It cannot
any longer run amuclk 1t must be-
come something more than a crowd.
1t must stand for more than a griev-
ance or demand.
Judging from the past, the prospect
of such a reformation is remote. Or
ganized labor has always been stone
deaf to warnings; has always con-
tinued on path once started to disas-
ter The reformation alone can come
through leaders-Ieaders with eco
nomic insight, leaders with courage to
stand, II need be, like a rock against
the impetuous mass, leaders who will
help 1t to see beyond it's immediate
wants. leaders who will not shirk re-
gponsibAity upon a specious plea of
democracy and who will put their duty
above their Office. leaders who are
neither revolutionary agitators nor
petty politicians.

James Carroll.


DR.. James Carroll, curator of the
Army Medical Museum In Washington
was born in England, June 5, 1854, and
received his early education at an
academy at woolwich. Emigrating to
the United States he attended the
medical school Of the University OF
Maryland and later took a post grad
uate course at Johns Hopkins. DR..
Carroll was a member OF the commits
sion sent to Cuba in 1900 to investi-
gate the yellow fever situation, and he
offered himself for experiment to de-
termine the theory of mosquito trans
mission OF the yellow fever germ. He
voluntarily submitted to the bite Of a
contaminated mosquito that had pre-
viously been caused to bite three we'll
marked cases Of yellow fever. Within
four days he was taken Ill and suffered
a severe attack of the disease, this be-
ing the first case OF experimental yell
low fever on record. For his services
In Cuba It was proposed to retire him
with the rank Of lieutenant-c colonel,
but the war department considered
him too valuable man to be placed
on the retired list and he was conse-
quently promoted to be a major on
the active list and assigned to the
medical corps of the army.
