OFFICERS WHO
ENFORCE LAW is PLEA
MADE BY R. |. KEATOR
District Attorney Scathingly
Denounces Attitude of Those
Who Censure Glenn Bushee.

Whether the law shall surrender to
''JiIef vsofasur. Oh Mhcther t2r q lolator
shall surrender to the law is the pfin-
ciple that underlies the alteration
which took place yesterday between
Glenn Bushee, railroad special
agent, and Leo Raymond, a tramp,
when the latter lost his life, according
to r. l. Keator, district attorney.
There are few people here who
are condemning the officer for his ac-
ton Keator said today. They throw
up their hands when an officer resorts
to firearms. They forget the great
number of officers who become cas-
ualties in the pursuit of their official
duties.
81 know personally of twice when
Bushee has come into this office with
his eyes. face and jaws beaten until
they carried various dark hues, in
flicted by transients, but the public
doesn't worry about that. | have also
had my own life threatened several
times by criminals who I have perse-
cUted, and that is no worry to the
public.
'T have heard one man say that
buSHee SfOulu nave PEI HllltCu tiiN
tramp to go after he showed a bad
disposition. such a doctrine as that is
revolutionary 1t would have the law
surrender to the law breaker 1t
would convert this country into sec
ond Russia.
The big question is whether we
shall enforce the law or permit the
law to be broken. If we enforce the
law, it must be done through our regu-
lar officers. and we must see to 1t
that our officers in turn are defended.
Just a few days ago two breakmen'
who are recognized by the state OF
Oregon as officers of the law, were as
saulted and one of them was stabbed
in the back when they attempted to
put the men off of train. This
tramp who was shot by Bushee resist
ed arrest. There must be line drawn
somewhere, and I am personally in
favor of making the line distinct and
seeing that the officers are given as
much defense as possible in executing
their duties
