MORE JUDGES NOT NEEDED
informing Oregonlan.D


The Dallas Observer makes some
highly sensible observations, printed
elsewhere, on the complicated and
ambiguous judicial amendment adopt
ed by the voters in November. The
voter wanted to adopt the scheme of
n three-fourths jury verdict In civil
cases, and that was about all he want
ed or intended to approve.
The Supreme Court properly con-
cludes that there was no purpose to
abolish or change the status of the in
ferior courts or to load up the court
with great mass of new work on
appeals The court will not exercise
original jurisdiction except in emer-
gencies or for special reasons.
SO 1t would appear that the vast
excitement into which the lawyers and
other judge-makers and job-providers
have permitted themselves to be
thrown by the new amendment
through the expected heavy increase
of the work of the Supreme Court has
no substantial foundation. The great
excitement into which the lawyers and
judges was a triie preclpltate. No
election impends. and there is really
no sufficient reason why the FIVE
Judges now on the bench cannot give
their undivided attention TO their
work

|CONVICTS FACE TRIAL
FARRIS WILL MEET CHARGE OF
ASSAULT AND ROBBERY.
Trial Recalls Famous Sunday Morning
Battle at Buena Vista
i'm October, 1909.

The exciting battle of Buena Vista
where something like half hundred
shots were fired in rapid succession
and two escaped convicts from the
state prison were killed, two wound
ed, and also an officer wounded, was
recalled Wednesday, when Alfred Far
ris, one of the escaping convicts, ap-
peared before Judge Burnett and en-
tered a plea of not guilty to a charge
of assault with a dangerous weapon
and robbery. The offense is alleged to
consist in holding up Guards Davis
and Hertzel about a year ago by Far
ris and the other convicts, and TAX
| ing their weapons and also money
which they had on their persons. AL
bert Murray, another convict is still
serving time in the state prison, but
an order will probably be issued dur
ing the present term of court direct
ing him to make his appearance and
stand trial for the same offense.
OverpoweP Guards.
The battle of Buena Vista occur
red a year ago last October, when AL
DtTI II dTTl5, AlDGTl " NSs1l :
ter, George Duncan and Mike Nico-
Itch made their escape from the state
penitentiary. Farris was incarcer-
ated for the crime of larceny from a,
building Murray and Nicolitch for
burglary, and Carter and Duncan al
so for serious crimes, and all were
what is termed among prison officials
as "bad men," The five had been
taken to the feeble minded institute
by Guards Davis and Hertzel to work
on the grounds, and, at an unguarded
moment, they overpowered the guards,
took their weapons and also some
money, and made their escape.
Made Game Fight.
The officials of the state prison ana
the sheriffs office, together with many
volunteers, started in pursuit of the
fleeing convicts, and they were over
taken at Buena Vista, where they took
refuge in some thick brush The OFF,
GERS opened fire on them, and the con-
victs Carter and Duncan replied, they
being armed with the guns taken from
the guards. Sheriff John Grant, of
Polk County, shot and killed Carter
just as he was raising his gun to shoot
Grant, and Duncan was shortly after
wards mortally wounded Nicolitch
and Farris were shot twice by the Off
GERS, and Murray, after seeing his part
ners all wounded, crept out of the
brush and surrendered.
Must Answer for Escape.
AT the October term the grand jury
indicted Farrs and he must now an
swer for his part in the escape, and
Murray will probably have to answer
with him. Nicolitch, who was Grim
inal in his own country before coming
here, after the jail break, went to the
asylum, and upon his release no charge
was preferred against him, partly be-
cause of his mental condition, and
partly because the other convicts ex-
onerated him from any participation
in the break for liberty. The sentence
of Farris expired recently and he was
arrested by Sheriff Mimic. Murray still
has some time to serve, but will prob
ably also be made to stand trial joint
ly with Farris.-Salem Journal.

THE NEW YEAR.

Grateful to the people of Polk
County for subscription list which
was increased by over 500 names dur
ing the year just closing; to the mer-
chants of Dallas for patronage of its
advertising columns, and to its Gus
toners everywhere for orders that
have made it's job printing department
one of the busiest place in the Will
lamette Valley, the Observer desires
to extend to all it's best wishes for a
Happy and Prosperous New Year.
Printed in live and growing town,
it has been the steady aim of the OBJ
server to keep fully abreast of this
growth to the end that the people may
have a newspaper which will serve az
a creditable advertisement of Polk
County. With this ambition constant
ly at heart, the publisher has spent by
far the greater part of the income of
the paper in improving the office with
modern machinery and equipment 1T
is a source of pride to him to be able
to say that no country Office in Oregon
is better equipped and that no such
establishment has larger payroll.
The Observer gives steady employment
to six men. AS the linotype is doing
the work of five more, it might truth
fully be said that Dallas has a printing
office requiring the service of eleven
men. We think no other town of Dali
las size in the Northwest can offer a
better showing.
The payroll of the office amounts to
many thousands of dollars each year.
and practically all of this money goes
directly into the Golfers of the home
merchants. The printing business is
one in which the cost of the raw mate
rial, in the shape of paper stock, forms
only small proportion of the total
expense. BY far the greater portion
of the cost of doing business is repre-
sented in the weekly payroll There
fore, while the income of the business
amounts to a considerable sum, it is
pleasing to know that nearly all of
this money is kept at home. Another
feature of Importance in this connec-
tion is that the Observers job printing
department has customers in all parts
of the Willamette Valley and that the
office is thereby enabled to bring a
large amount of outside money into
Dallas each year, to the benefit of
every resident of the town.
Never has the Observer entered up
on a new year with brighter outlook
for business than that which 1t enjoys
today The subscription list is grow
ing, merchants are making liberal in
vestments in advertising space, and the
job printing department is crowded
with orders. 1t is pleasing to the pub
Usher to reflect that an increased in
come will make it possible for him to
give employment to a still greater
number of worthy and industrious
fellow workmen, thus keeping the
money at home and helping to build
up Dallas. We can only help our
selves by helping one another.
