ROSEBURG Review iVKN Reynolds, Negro, to Pay Heavy Penalty For Crime TWO MORE INDICTMENTS Stephen Owen?, Again Ch.ugc4 Will Bootlegging Cal Judy Wins Homestead Fight Seven years' imprisonment in the penitentiary was the sentence pro nounced hy Judge Coke ill the circuit court this morning upon S. M. Rey nolds, colored, former Pullman car porter, convicted of n statutory of fense. Reynolds had nothing to say before the Imposing of the penalty. When Judge Coke ilnished, 'however, the negro stood motionless for a few seconds, as it dazed, then he walked steadily out of the court room down to Ihe jail. Addressing the court In the nrgro's behalf while the prisoner stood up to receive the penalty. Attorney V. V. Caldwell said: "1 don't wish to ap pear as condoning the defendant's conduct, but 1 do maintain that he Is not guilty of the charge speclii-d in the indictment. There Is not one syllable of evidence to sup'iorr the verdict. The jury, 1 believe, acted honestly, but It was absolutely ttn i'Ofsible for it to eliminate race ciej- udice. As I argued repeatedly during: its contents. of this fine was later remitted be cause of Owens' deplorable.. physical condition, coupled with the fact that he has a family dependent upon him. Both of his legs are off at the knees. -May 22, 1908, Owens was found guilty by a jury of selling liquor without a license. Again, however, did the condition of the man bring an act of mercy toward him. Upon the recommendation of the Jury the court suspended sen tence. The Indictment against Wllhelm accuses him of assault and battery upon G. M. Iiassett, on whose land near Drain Wllhelm operates a saw mill. The men are said to have be come involved In a quarrel over a plank road built on the premises where the nlleged assault occurred. . .liidy Wins Hack Homestead. Cal Judy, the paroled life- termer from the state penitentiary, was vic torious In court yesterday tfternoon in the leal battle instittied by his former wife, Mrs. S. C. Solnnder. for the possession of the old family home stead of 160 acres on the ground of undisputed possession for the statu tory period of ten years. Judy's at torney. Senator Albert Abraham, ar gued that the woman had no color of title; that the patent which she ob tained from the government nrter her husband was sent to the peni tentiary, was in her husband's name, not hers, and that the homestead, therefore, was held for ills benefit alone. This contention was the ba sis of a motion made by Abraham that the court Instruct tho jury to render a verdict for Judy. This Judge Coke did and tho jury com plied without retiring. Mrs. Solan der's attorney, John T. Long, will appeal the case to the supreme court. Damage Case Xou-Kiiltcd." Judge Coke this morning sus tained the motion of Attorney lien !. l)av for a non-suit In the case of Victor lloyd against the Southern Pa cific railroad, an action for $100 damages for the loss of a trunk and 11110111 CIIUCKMIK me ABUSING THE INITIATIVE. the trial, this defendant should be trunk, but Intending to ao so as soon 1 tinifhed for moral delinquency, and las he could buy transportation, lloyd ask tho court to give nun as low a leu n ouisme me ihiKkk sentence as nossible." "The law presumes unlawful in tent to be equivalent to an unlawful act." said District Attorney Drown. "In this case there was no doubt as to the defendant's Intentions." This was 'be view of the matter taken by Ju!P Coke. "There was no question as to your Intention," said tho Judge to tho negro. "Your act was a complete attempt at rape. It was all" the more reprehensible from the fact that you are a member of the colored race, while your Intended victim is a white child, making the. crime more aggravating than If the girl were a member of your own race." Reynolds will be taken to the pen itentiary tomorrow, along with Tour other men who were given sentences at Ibis term of court. These include two other negroes, liert Lowe and Ralph Russell, each given a penalty of four years' imprisonment, the for mer for assault with a dangerous weapon, the latter for forgery. The remaining two are Chick Wright and Ralph Cassey, automobile thieves, under sentence of five years each. Two New Indictments. The grand jury this morning in dlrted Stephen Owens of Scottsbnrg and Joseph Wllhelm of Drain on sep arate charges. Both were arraigned In court and took until tomorrow Southern Pacific depot here, boon afterwards the trunk disappeared, never to be seen again. Boyd's attor ney was 13. L. Cannon.

THE ONLY SOLUTION (Mast Oregnnian. July !))' Voters of Oregon will he compelled to pass upon legislative measure when they vote this fall. The number ts entirely too largo and many of the measures nre of such a nature that voters simply cannot hope to Judge intelligently as to their merits. Conspicuous In this class are the eight county division bills that have been filed. Kaeh of these measures pertains ton Issue that is strictly lo cal In character. The people of the state at larne nre not Interested in county division disputes. The average voter cannot hope t.i Judge of the merits of these division billh From one side be will be showered with Hi era tu re favorable to division; from another quarter he will be Implored to vote ag.iinst division Often people residing in the proposed new' counties do not want division ,a carry Now What IS tho )oov voter to do? In the view or the Fast Oregonlan there ib but one logical wnv to settle county division problems All those problems should he held In abeyance until a law has been enacted leaving the settlement ot such disputes to the people who nre ditectly interested In l hem It is pretty certain tli.it such a n9 will be passed by the nest leglsia tu re. Such a law was passed by the Inst legislature, but lo- toiue unknown rensou was vetoed by (iuvenior (Mmtu berlain following the close ol the session. TAXPAYER. Are not your taxes high enough?

JATARHH A SYSTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE Catarrh is not merely an affection ( the mucous membranes; it is a iccp-seated blood disease in which the utiie circulation and greater part of ic system are involved. It is more imiuonly manifested in the head, se and throat, because of the sensi ve nature of these membranes, and '.lo because they nre more easily -ached by irritating influences from .he outside. The symptoms of Ca .arrh, such as a tight feeling in the head, nose stopped tip, throat clogged! mid dry, hacking cough, etc., show that the tiny blood vessels of the mu cous membranes nre badly congested and inflamed from the impurities In the circulation. To cure Catarrh per manently the blood must he purified and the system cleansed of all un healthy matter. Nothing equals B. S. S. for this purpose. It attacks the disease at its head, goes down to the bottom ot the trouble anil makes a complete and lasting cure by PURIFYING the blood. Then the inflamed membrnues begin to heal, the head is cleared, breathing becomes natural nnd easy, the throat is no longer clogged, and every un pleasant symptom of the disease dis appears. S. S. S. is the, greatest of all blood purifiers, nnd for this reason Is the most certain cure for Catarrh. Hook tin Catarrh and medical advice free to all who write.
