PROSECUTION PLANS
 ARE FRUSTRATED

Boston october 27.-Counsel fo1 Clarence " T. Richeson. a clergyman accused of the murder of Avis Lin nell, succeeded today in defeating the plan of the prosecution to compel the defense to produce before the grand jury letters, photographs and other pa pers taken from the minister's rooms after his arrest. Robert Burns, a pri- vate detective employed by the de- fense, took the articles, but declared he had transferred them to the attor- neys representing the defendant.
 The articles include letters writer to Rieheson by women friends includ. ing Miss Linnell.
 The special session of the grand jury probably will have heard all wit nesses by Monday evening. This would indicate a report which may be ex. pected Monday night.

 Fixed prejudice against labor unions of itself thus far has not been effective in barring talesmen but usually the de- fense has been able to show the linking of such an opinion with a prejudice against the defendant, who is a member of a union, and challenges manipulated that way have been allowed

Death Of Mrs. Ann CamnhelI Roe

Ann Campbell Roe, whose body was
brought from Heppner, where she died
at the home Of her daughter, Mrs c.
h. Woodson, was born in Rock Island,
Illinois, Feb. 3, 1888, and removed to
Oregon IN the year 1852. On July
llth, 1856, she was married to the Rev.
George c, Roe who had already served
two years as an itinerant Methodist
preacher. From the day of their
marriage to the time of his death, on
October &, 1896 she journeycd with him
making cheerful and faithful help
meet during all the hardships of his
life as pioneer preacher.
When father Roe was Presiding
Elder ont he District that embraced all
the Eastern Oregon country, as far
east as Pendleton, and south to the
John Day river there was not mile
of railroad in all the country. When
he left his home in Godendalc and
started for the quarterly round in this
direction, ii required an absence of
eight weeks, and when he went out on
the other side it required five weeks.
During all the years of his arduous
ministry, OF which this is only an
illustration, she stayed at the home
and cared for the children. Father
Roe did the pioneer work over this
great country where we now have
many splendid charges; for which he
deserves great honor, and his faithful
wife deserves none less.
After her husbands $ death which
occurred in Hood River in 1896 when
they had been residents of this place
but few days, mother Roe made her
home with her daughter, Mrs. c. +.
Woodson, of Heppner, Oregon. Dur
ing the'Iast three years Of her life she
was confined to her room, but she was
bright and happy until the end. On
last Wednesday evening, when the
shadows grew long and the chill of
night began to come on, she quietly
slipped. away and went out into land
where there is no night; "wherc thev
need no light of lamp, neither light of
sun; for the Lord God shall give them
light, and they. shall reign for ever and
ever.
Sister Roe was the mother of five
children, Two sons are dead, and two,
Carlton c, Roe, of Buenos Aires,
Argentina, and William c. Roe, Of st.
Johns, are living. There is also one
daughter Mrs. c. Il. Woodson, of
Hcppner Oregon. The last two men
toned were present at the funeral as
were all four grandchildren. Mrs. Roe
has six grandchildren and five great
grandchildren. She was buried in the
X. of p. cemetery on Friday evening,
April Z, beside the body of her
husband.

INJURED BY FALLING
FROM FIRE ESCAPE

When the pupils of the Park Street
school were engaged in the fire drill
last Thursday afternoon, using the
canvas chute fire escape, Louis Wagner,
the 13 old son of J. G. Wagner, was
seriously injured by being hurled to
the earth when about half way from
the second story of the building. His
fall resulted from the effects of the
prevailing strong wind of the afternoon
which caught the folds of the canvas
and turned them wrong side out.
Striking face downward with fearful
impact his nose and upper lip were
laid open as cleanIy as though with an
axe and the right arm was severely
wrenched. One of his knees was also
badly bruised. Despite the above
injuries the boy walked into the school
building before he collapsed. At last
reports his wounds were healing very
rapidly.

BIG REALTY DEAL
AIRED IN COURT

The case Of Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar Van.
derbilt vs.. Mrs. Minnette Thuller
Bishop and Joseph c. Thullen is being
fought out this week in the federal
court at Portland. The plaintiffs are
seeking to recover 1890 alleged &c
be due on the purchase price of SAB, 600.
The case was transferred from the
Circuit Court there because the defend
ants claimed residence in Ohio. The
orchard tract over which the contro-
versyshas arisen was purchasedsfor the
defendants last year by Mrs. Carrie r.
Schmick, who alleges misrepresenta-
tions by John Leland Henderson, who
acted as the agent Of the Vanderbilt's s
in the deal.
Mrs tSchmick asserts that Mr.. Hen
derson told her the trees were Ia years
old, with the exception Of so or 60
trees which had been reset three years
before that the orchard would yield a
net return Of 25 to 30 per cent on the
SAB, 900 investment; that THE net profit
for 1908 was ST, 1872; that the orchard
had been greatly improved by deep
blowing; that it contained only IA
varieties Of apples, ana that the soil
contained no hard pan. The soil does
contain hardapan, Mrs. Schmick told
Judge Wolverton. She also testified
that the orchard contains q varieties,
some Of them understandable.
The 30-acre orchard was sold for
$1,000 cash. $4,000 in 30 days, $4,000 Dec
ember !, 1910, and first mortgage on
the premises for $23, 600 payable in five
years from March 22, 1910. 1t is al
legged there are more than 1000 apple
trees in the orchard, that the defend
ants have neglected to irrigate the
land properly, and that they have not
met the $4,000 payment.
The purchasers demand that the
now held in escrow by the
First National Bank of Hood River, be
that the $40, 600 they paid be
returned to them, with an additional
$1,000 which they say they have ex-
pended in caring for the orchard.
They also demand interest on their
outlay.

CITY POLITICS.

Recently while reading the reports
Of an election in his former home, {
citizen who moved to Hood River from
a middle western city was astoundeC
to note that among the officers elected
to trustworthy positions, three were
saloon keepers and one had served 4
sentence in the penitentiary for horse
stealing. 1t was not so much the fact
Of the election of the saloon men that
gave the reader the shock, for theiI
political leadership in cities has be-
come matter Of course, but to find an
"eX-con" a recorder Of a large city is
enough to elicit a mild ejaculation.
The incident again brings before US
the old story Of political corruption and
graft in the large cities Of America.
Although it is one Of the country's s
greatest problems, it has grown so old
and has been rubbed up against us 80
often that we have become calloused.
The stories of municipal corruption in
the papers Of the day have become
matters Of detail to the readers and
they search for something novel, the
tale of the latest Harcm skirt or a
Japanese war scare but that is now
becoming hackneyed by the many
retellings.
For more than a decade a review Of
the history of each years events will
rive forth the story Of some fight
against municipal graft. But few
large cities are so fortunate as to be
able to boast Of freedom from such
characters as San Francisco's Ruef
There has been lack Of Joseph Folks
and Francis Heneys. And here it is
interesting to note that Ex-Governor
Folk will tell the citizens Of Hood
River Saturday night something of his
fight with theSt.L ouis boodlers.
Municipal corruption will perhaps
always he a hard problem to solve
from the very nature of things. No
other field offers such opportunities to
the shrewd. The ease with which
profit is derived from such political
positions is alluring and the excitement
OF campaign wire pulling undoubtedly
has the charm Of the throw Of the dice.
These and other factors will cause it
to always be a prevailing evil. When
we consider that in no time was
political reform ever SO much discussed
as 1t is today, it may seem strange
that municipal graft does not shrivel
and die under the fire of the discussion.
But much of the speech we hear
against the evil is idealistic. Too often
those who think they wuod like to
light the battles of Folk are overcome
by temptation and become abettors to |
the crime. But the most pathetic
sight of all is that of the half-baked
reiormer-perhaps he should not be 80
designated; for his earnest IDEAS are
usually burning. He would change
the custom Of American cities that
have been years in the building, by |
ms hot words Of speech, yet he finds
but few receptive minds among those |
whom he would lecture. Still the
main body of voters Of municipalities
are not bad lot. II ia q fact tbnt
