UPTON TO THK PEN.
The last seen of a traglo act has been
closed and the eurtaln of tbs law drawn to
olwoure from view and memory the details
of a plut itud erim which eauned th datb
of a human being, and resulting in th per-
pstrawror the crime blmr plaoed behind
the prison bars of the Oregoa penitentiary
for the remainder of his dsys.
1 he story of the murder of William Ds
Joarnttt in this county in August of 1887,
In an old one to th people of the county:
ws need not repast It. All that Is nvcewuiry
Is to say that Uaorge Upton received a fair
and Impartial trial before a fair and impar
tial judge and Jury, ll0 was ably deftiniW
by two of lila fellowmen, Montr. Cole and
Tlinmoin, and the twelve citizens whom
decreed that hs had committed murder In
tlie seoond degree, performed only the duty
which tby had made uath to do according
to law end evidence.
flcorge Upton fa now obeying the edicts
of God and man, for when those laws are
disobeyed tha peualty must be endured.
He took a human life and attemptad te end
the earthly carrser of others, bat wat pre
vented only by Providence Interfering In
rendering bis deadly weapon a useless In
strument of destruction of human life.
The ease went to trial In this city oa
Wednesday morning of last week, aad It
was late In the afternoon ol Saturday whea
the testimony was all given in. Judge
MoIIrlde allowed two hours eaeb for coun-
sul to argue the murlts of their ease, and
no thought was left unsaid which in any
way would save the dsftmdant from suuer-
In the full penalty of the law. Prosecut
ing Attorney Cloelon pursued his ease with
vigor, and at about 8:30 p. m. Suturday th
Judge Instructed the jury as to points of
law, wbn the Jury quietly Hied into tbo
Juryroom, where every ounce of evidence
was carefully weighed, and at 7 o clock
Sunday morning Dial body returned to the
court a Verdict of murder In the second de
gree, the penalty of which, at about 9:80
Monday morning, Judge MoBride made
known, after first requiring the prisoner to
stand, saying: "It U the Judgment of this
court that yon be confined in the peniten
tiary of tbo state of Oregon for the remain
der of your natural Ufa." and In f uinUinent
of that decree the sheriff started to Salsm
with the prisoner on tbs steamer Potter
Monday afternoon.
Thus the anpleasant and unprofitable ep
isode becomes a matter of bttiory.
OLEBTON AS A PHOBEODTOH.
T. J. Cleeton, who Is a eandidate on the
republican Uoket for re-election to the office
of district attorney, has proven himself to
be one of the ablest prosecuting attorneys
In tbs state. Mr. Cieeton's success bss
been remarkable, and hi record one tbst
every citisen of Columbia county, regard
less of party, should be proud of. He has,
In the past two years, represented the state
in tome of the most Important cases ever
tried to the state. In the trial aad prose
cution of Oue Wachllii, In Washington
county, a new record was made in the crim
inal history of the state for the ability and
dianalcb with wbloh It wat prosecuted. It
bad bseo almost tour years since the mur
der was committed, and nothing but elr
eumstantlal evidence to work upon. The
witnesses were scattered, tome of them not
to be found, aud everything to be worked
up anew, but the matter was bandied with
such consummat skill and energy that the
trial, conviction, and execution was a mat
ter of comment throughout the state. We
do not mean to claim all the credit for Mr.
Cleeton, bat that It is largely duo to bis ef
forts is not disputed by those who are
familiar with the facta.
In lbs trial Just closed In this county, in
which Goerge Upton was tried for the mur
der of Wm. DeJournelte nearly eicvea
years ago. and in which Upton was con
victed of murder la the second degree ana
sentenced to Ufa Imprisonment, Mr. Ciee
ton's ability and energy again appears, the
difficulties besetting the prosecution were
many. The report of the coroner's jury
bad been lost not a scrap of written evi
dence. The pistol and the balls were tost;
the witnesses were scattered some in Cali
fornia, tome In Washington, other dead.
There was but one eye-witness to the kill
ing -Mr. DeJournette and it was shown
that she had been convicted of a crime.
Her evidence was Impeached, and it was
abown that she bad made contradictory
statements as to who wat directly responsi
ble for tbe murder. Yet In the face of these
facta Mr. Cleeton. without assistance,
proved by a chain of evidence, impregnable,
tha Knilt of the defendant.
The Jury stood en first ballot, nine for
murder in the Brst degree, and three for
murder In the second degree, but to pre
vent the jury from disagreeing the nine
Yielded.
Mr. Cleeton baa tried a number of Im
portant eases, and has sbowo the samecare I
and ability throughout all his work. It is
a fact worthy of note that Mr. Cleeton has
not pot a county in his district W one dol
lar expense ia employing counsel to assist
him in a single criminal case, but be has
represented the state without assistance,
except in a few Instances where the private
prosecutor employed counsel, Mr. vieeum
ha lost but one indictment by demurrer in
the past two years, and bad to resubmit to
the grand jury in a very tew WBiancoa. ui
the oriminal oases appealed to the supreme
eourt four in all two have been dectdea
in favor of the state and two are not yet

ISLAND OV UTOPIA.
May 20th, 1808.
BInee It Is Incumbent upon me to report
the proceedings had at the last meeting in
Our city or the Reform Club, I, being elected
secretary of sucb, will endeavor to give the
sum end substance, in brief, of the doings
of our neble order.
Tbe charter members met at T:S0p.m.
la the pavllllon, and without unnecessary
delay proceeded at once te business.
The first thing In order was to elect and
Install the officer to serve the ensuing year.
Brother Brain being nominated for the
most dlgnlllsd position, that of president oi
the order, and having no opposition, a mo
tion was made that be be elected by accla
mation. Motion carried, and Brother
Drains was elected by a unanimous vote,
ills predeceasor not being present, it was
thought expedient to call Brother Brains to
the chair at enoe, which wat done.
Uis honor, being afarmer, it wat doclded
that there should be an emblem of some
sort placed at the disposal of bis honor,
the president, as a token not only of his
profession, but to show the great distinction
be enjoys among his fellowmen.
It was decided, without opposition, that
the pumpkin vine was the most appropriate
because of its large and most dellciously
flavored fruit; its else also belngoonsldered,
from the fact of it not taking but a few at
a time for a mess.
So, after tbe usual ceremony on such oc
casions was decided that tbe initial! ve and
referendum should be carried out to the
letter In all of our proceedings. The initia
tive proposition was had by placing upon
his head a crown of glory, (for that was all
there was In it) surrounded by a wreath of
pumpkin vines. The referendum part was
then carrisd out by a reference being had
to our much-uteeiued political martyr,
Oorbett.
I should have stated that your humble
servant was chosen as pormaneat secretary
to serve for life, or Oaring good behavior,
This proceeding, not being regular and
somewhat inconsistent with the teachings
of our order, we shall pass it briefly over.
It was tbea proposed that we elect a trees
urer. I objected on the ground that we bad
no use for such, from the fact that we bad
ao money to put into a treasury, and would
not be likely to have, and that we proposed
to run thlsiastltution on tbe labor-exchange
principle.
It was then decided that we elect from
emong our number a chaplain. There was
no one found except Brother Advent, whose
bump of veneration wae developed to an
enormous degree so much so that it had
grows entirely up through the crown of bis
bat, to tlje great detriment of all the other
mental organs.
About then there were twodemocrats ap
peared at the door for admission. We told
them we would have to take tbem on pro
bation, on account of their having voted for
MoKinley. Just then there were a doaen or
more of onr members Jumped up and de
manded explanations on this matter, saying
that if previous party affiliations should be
adopted as a test for membership, what are
we to do for members. About then several
other applicants appeared at the door, some
of whom insisted that they were silver re
publican. At this Juncture there were vis
ible signs of uneasiness en the countenance
of our president, and he, bring of an unus
ual vigorous disposition, began to wield the
save! in an unprofessional way; ana.m try'
ing to restore order, through mistake, hit
our newly-elected chaplain a welt on the
head. Of coarse the abnormal condition ol
a certain portion of tbe brain made it quite
a natural consequence for the skull to crack
open like an over ripe cabbage-head, and
the brains begin to flow out in quantities.
The Bkhi of blood had a very wholesome
eflect. and the meeting adjourned sine die.
We then picked up the cbaplain, and by
Dressing an empty touiatocan down tightly
over his head we succeeded in etopping a
further loss of brain matter. He was then
nlaced In the care of a specialist, who said
he eonld mend him up so he would do
for the next meeting. The doctor was com
Milled to perform an operation by trepan
ning the skull; so he took a piece of free
silver, presumably an old watch crystal
at least it served the purpose admirably
well and made a good job of it. A po1
tion of the brain of this unfortunate
brother was taken to an analytical chemist,
who made an analysis of the same and
found the following result, towit: "Asa
natural result reformation had already set
in. and it was found that the principal In
gradient consisted of albumen, mixed with
equal parts of inflation, remonetitatloo, and
free silver, with a faint trace of common
ensa."
Now, brother editor, I must submit the
foregoing to you for your earnest considera
tion, and hope that it may meet wnn unv
Tarsal approval, and in the meantime would
be pleased to have yon ocoept an honorary
membership in our rraternai oravr.

LOCAL CONDITIONS.
Editor Mist: In reply to vour recent
inouirv would cheerfully say that there
a decided improvement in business within
the last year. My business Is of a diversi
fied character, and In order to attend to all
that requires my personal attention I have
little time to brood over the troubles and
misfortunes of others. It is an eld saying
that 'there are none so far from market as
those who have nothing to sell." It ia my
mmiose to try and have something that
nther. want, and to be ia such a position
tbat I can demaad the current price, at
.nit. for the same, and not be obliged
make a sacrifice in order to aispoae oi ior
eaab. Now, I cannot see tnat me oppor.
tnniiiM for one man are any better man lo
an ether, because we are all endowed with
tha anme natural eensee, placed on an equai
fnntlne bv nature, and that being the case,
.iih reasonable amount of diligenoe. per-
aovereiice, and precsution, there should be

no reason why all the producing classes
should not be able to reap tbe benefits of
which I sin about to speak.
It is only a matter of a few months when
wheat was worth 76or 80 cents, oataSS cents,
wool 10 cents, hides 0 to 8 cents, beef
ressed) 5 cents, and other things in pro
portion. What are tbe conditions of things
nowT If a farmer has a few beeves (it for
market, the butchers will come to yon and
gladly drive your cattle away, leaving to
their place a living price in cash at the rate
6 to 7. cants net. Uood wheat is now
worth a dollar; flour la now worth 15 at my
mill, while a year ago I was selling thesame g
commodity at Portland prices, simply soil
ing the freight, which brought tbe price up
14.60. : ';"
Wagea oa the outside have advancer?
somewhat, and afford an Inducement for
our laboring people to leave tbe neighbor
hood, eonstquently I am at tbe present
time paying the same person for the ssme
services 6 more on the month than was
naid him a year ago.
Since the information that l nave nere
given Is of a local nature, I can vouch for
the truthfulness of ths same, and to sum up
the whole matter, I can safely say that there
an advance in prices in all liaes of busi
ness pertaining to the interest of tbe pro
dnnr and- laborer in our locality to the
amount of from 10 to 25 per cent within the
lust twelve months.
Now, if any inconsistency can be snown,
nd that I have exaggerated or misrepre
sented the matter, I stand rnady to be cor
rected. Respectfully, U. vv. naaaJiAM
