Puter Says Heney Is Fair

The Portland Oregonian quotes s
A. d. Puter, who was convicted by
Francis j. Heney for his connection
with a conspiracy to defraud the gov
ernment out of thousands of acres oi
timber lands. The Oregoniar
SAYS:
Mr.. Puter deeply showed his feel
ing when speaking of Mr.. Heney
yesterday Tears almost filled his
eyes and the twitching muscles
sof his usually immobile face were
evidence of the strain which the
shooting of Mr.. Heney brought
upon him.
Mr.. Heney was one OF the finest
men I ever met" said Mr. Puter
of the man who sent him TO jail
HE is as square as a die. He is
relentless prosecutor. but for all
that. he is a fair one. He does his
duty and that is all. His aim is
to convict. and a conviction Sc
cured his big heart shows itself,

cumstances Mr.. Heney will do his

Stern Methods Necessary

From Troy, n Y, comes testimon.
of the general appreciation of Heney'
work. The Troy Times says:
Perhaps there is not another man
in the country who would mind
less being shot than Francis j.
Heney. who has a bullet in his
head out in San Francisco. Indeed,
the thought of death itself would
disturb Heney only in so far as IL
might interfere with finishing up
the jobs he had on hand. So when
vengeful bullet struck this IA
nous special prosecutor in a court
room in that much shaken city of
the Pacific coast. Heney waited
only long enough to say. Il will
live to prosecute Haas and Ruef."
Not a thought of being scared or
of quitting; just another incentive
TO getting at them.
He has adopted stern methods
because they were necessary. be-
cause only by such methods could
San Francisco be purged OF It's rot
tenness. OF its Schmitzes and Its
Ruefs. of It's secret compacts OF
bribing corporations and bribed
officers, of its secret partnerships
of vice and OF men whom the peo-
pie had trusted.

Blamed for Haas Crime

The Examiner comes first in the rol

Herald:
1T is fact, however regrettable,

sively against the graft prosecu-

Hartman Roads Give The Biggest
Order Since The Panic.

NEW YORK, Aug l3.-The Har.

600 steel cars No orders have been
placed but the car equipment COM
panies have been notified that this
amount represents the total Of an ear
~ purchase by the Hartman lines and
for more than half the cars there have
been filed specifications on which the
equipment companies may base their
bids. Competition between the com
panies is said to be keen, for the or
ders il filed, will be altogether the
largest since the panic.
The estimated cost OF the 5000 steel
cars ranges all the way from $1,000
900 to 100000. 1t Is expected that
the lower figure viii prove near cor
rect for the reason that the competi-

FAIRVIEW, Aug. l3.-Tnvitations
to deliver speeches came thick and
fast today to Bryan. California's re-
quest for visit again pressed upon
him with the result the candidate has
under serious consideration.
Bryan hopes to be able to go to
Montgomery, Ala, August l9 and
possibly some other points in the
southern states.
A notable incident of the day was
the presentation to Bryan, by several
hundred farmers, from Otie county,
Neb., of a big Stick gourd. About
five feet in length and easily might
be taken for the original, if there ever
was one, about three feet long, which
has been so extensively caricatured.
1t bore the inscription Of "Billy's Big
Stick" Bryan, although expressing
thanks for the gift, declared if he be
elected for the presidency, the '"Big
Stick" will not be welded. Replying
on his ability to lead the people
rather than to control them.
