foresight to destroy about thre dozen
letter books, contaiiiiiig letters lieaiing
upon subjectaof public int rest. So long
as he continued in office these letter Dies
were allowed to exist, but when bis
resignation wss demanded and it was
certain that bis course as a public offi
cial waa to be investigated, lie caused
them to be destroyed. That the verdict
is the only one the jary could find umier
the charge of the court we must admit.
The judge ruled that it n as rot enough
for the jury to be convinced that Uje
books destroyed contained official let ers;
not enough that it be convinced the
books formed part of the records of the
Land office or that tbey a ere referred to
by the Land (Jffiee employee? that it
mcst be satisfied that Herman knew
their contents to be official ; ki ew that
in destroying them be was destroying
records that would be called for in con
nection with subsequent land ollice
business, and that it must further be
convinced that the custom and practice
of the effice required that such letter
books be left permanently in the Land
Office.
Such a charge was equivalent to an
instruction to acquit and should have
been accompanied, as was the charge
in a customs rase in Oregon many Tears
go, by the information that if the jury
tailed to acquit the judge Would Set
aside the verdict.
Then we are told that after the verdict
Heimanu shook hands with each mem
ber of the jury, hid he shake bands
with the judge during tha progress ot
the triai? If so there is no cme for
wonder at the charge. That Hermann
double hand shake, grasping the eliow
with the left and the victim's hand with
the right, with a fatherly inquiry after
the wife and children, has been Dinger's
greatest political asset during bis long
and successful political caieer in Oregon j
and we have no doubt it would work
just as well with a Washington judge as
it did with the horny handed farmers of
the Willamette Valley.
This is Binger' second vindication.
The erst was when the people of his
district, influenced largtdy by I're?i
dent Roosevelt's recognition of the man
whom he had dismissed from office,
elected him to Congress.
Certainly Einger is a lucky man, or
else there is something bark ot thes
land trials tfiat the general public doe
not see. J udged from thecommon view
point Hermann was the wor.it raHMl of
the bunch. His co operation was abso
lutely necessary to the success of the
plotters. With an honest man ai Com
missioner of the Geneial Lir.d Office
such Irauds as were perpetrated during
bis administration would have b-cn
absolutely impossible. II is subservience
to the wishes of the land ririjj b;m coit
the people millions upon millions, and
yet it is more than probable that he will
escape fCOt free. There are in I ct

There is nodoubt b it what we can gro

c.ipture a pi with our county exhib.t
we will have to make an effort nud
gro something especial Iv for that ex

The competition anion; the several
counties this year will be much more
strenuous this year than last because
set eral counties that did not enur the
la-t Contest have given notice tint they
will be on hand for firs: p!.ice this year.
The premium list for this vear is not
out yet, theiefore I cannot say what the
prizes will be. Last year there were
eight cash prizes running from $101 to
:i00 for best countv exhibits of agri
cultural and honieulinrul product.

Th county court has made an appro

humble servant to lake charge of the
exhibit this year. J100 of this is to he
used it purchasing displ ,y j.irs and put
ting up a permanent dtsplav o! the fruits
and other perishable prolucts of the
county, therefore ti e amount avilahle
for tlie county exhibit at the Ute Fair
is uie same mis year ns last. tins
amount is entirely too small but with
Oi:fldenc-iln the progressiveness and co-
operatsonof all the good people of Co!
umliia c ninty, I iielieve we can put up a
display of farm products that will be
second to none in the State.
