RIGHT TO CRITICISE.
Jury UphOlds Exposure by Press of
Misconduct in Office.

The jury in the libel suit for $780,
600 brought by L. f. Jones, formerly
county auditor, against the Ohio State
Journal Columbus, brought in a ver-
dict for the defendant. 1t is reported
by the Journal as a vindication of the
right of the press fearlessly to expose
misconduct in public office,
In its charges the State Journal
said:, "The conduct of the county au-
dtor's office during the past four
years has been marked by greater dis
regard of public interest and bolder
methods of personal graft than have
ever obtained in any office in the his
tory of Franklin county"
At the same time the Journal re-
vealed methods by which the inven-
tories in the probate court of dead
mems estates had been used to gain
information concerning omitted prop
erty upon which tax inquisitors had
been paid thousands of dollars. The
inquisitor was not legally entitled to
the percentage upon such property.
In the prosecution of the suit for
libel Mr.. Jones sought to show that
the State Journals charges were not

AN IDLE RAILROAD
RIPARIA-LEWISTON
TRACK HAS NO TRAINS
Reports say Line Is Completed But
Trains are Not In Opcration-Sup-
posed Controversy Between Hill and
Hartman May be Responsible for
Delay In Installation OF Train Ser
vice on Joint Road.

Why is the 70 miles of new o. R.
& y. railroad track between Riparia
and Lewiston not in use. is a question
asked the East oregonian frequently.
According 10 all reports the line Is
complete, the track bridges and all
features of the road having been fin
ished months ago The special train
carrying Portland business men to
Lewiston was run over the new line In
May and everything seems to be ready
been started and no passengers are
carried.
4 few work trains and a small num-
ber OF laborers are still employed at
different points on the line. but rail-
road men say that the track Is COM
plete the entire distance and why the
line has not been opened has been a
mystery to all the employees interested
and to the general public.

but the public is anxiously awaiting
the installation of the regular train
service Several train and engine
crews will be used on the line and a
large amount 9f equipment will be
needed Inquiries are made daily at
this office and at all Pendleton hotels
concerning the opening of the line.
II is supposed that the matter Of
the operation Of the line Is in contro-
versy between Hill and Hartman. 1t
Is understood that both the Northern
Pacific and the o. r. & ~ were to use
the line. but that the. construction Of
the north bank line by Hill angered
Hartman and that the matter of the
joint use of the -Riparia line
has been brought into the controversy
and the line will not be used until the
difficulty between the railroad mag
mates is settled.

"CoYoTE BILL UNDER ARREST.
Officers at Asotin Charge Cattle
Stealing In Grand ROnde.

Asotin, Wash, June 25.-William
Cottingham, better known as coyote
Bill" and his brother-in-law, Scott
Clark. jr., were arrested last night by
ex-Sheriff Robert Richards and Dep
uty w. c. Martin on a charge OF
stealing cattle in the Grande Ronde
country. ]. C. Brown, a wealthy
stockman of Wallowa county, Ore,
preferred the charges.
Cottingham is an old offender, hav-
ing spent some time in the state
penitentiary at Walla Walla for
stealing horses. Clark is the son Of
a wealthy stockman and has hereto
fore borne a good reputation.
Brown owns large herds of cattle,
which Craze in both Washington and
Oregon, and while the officers claim
to have a good case against Cotting-
ham, it has not been determined
whether the crime was committed in
oregon or Washington, so that no
requisition papers will be sought un-
der this charge until the case has
been investigated. Prosecuting Attor-
ney NJ. P. Shaughnessy has charge of
the case and says he has secured new
evidence, in addition to that which
caused the arrest of the men.
