1. T. I', mill Anti-Saloon 1,4-agiit-
Working for Prohibition In June.
The Mai-Ion futility anti-saloon con
vention wan helil at the V. C. T. I'
null 111 Milem with delegates In at
tendance from all parts of the county.
The convention decided to unite all
the temperance forces, Including the
Good Templars, the W. C. T. U., the
pvohllillonli-ts, and the Anti-Saloon
leaguers, ami temperance men In the
old panics, in a grund ciimljlned ef
foit to cany .Marlon county dry. The
convention was presided over liy F.
H. Ncff, Salem, and (5. C). Oliver, Tur
ner, secretary. I,. M. Gilbert, Roue
dale, l.i treasurer, and CI, A, O.
Moore, Ice-chairman.
Resolutions were adopted to com
mit the organization to a campaign
for carrying Marlon county dry as a
whole at the coming June election,
alao to carry It by grouped subdivis
ions, and by precincts, the plan being
to hold all dry precincts and get as
many move as possible If the county
cannot be cavi led.
in 19118. on the question of adopting
the amendments proposed by the
Uipior lualcis' association, Marlon
'county voted: yes, 2334: no, 2K64.
This was virtually a majority In sup
port of the local option law. Hut
when the local option question was up
on a direct vote Marlon gave a large
majority against the law.
During the year 1907 the criminal
records of the various counties pf the
state of Orec-n rcoii S3 mjrJcrs.
Of this number, and in spite of the
fact that only 10 murderers escape
the meshes of the police officials, not
single case Is recorded where cap!
tal punishment was administered In
expiation of the offense.
In fact, only. three of the it mur
derers were convicted .on belnr tnd. I
: Two of these are sc. nig iei nm ou uc
1 ond degree verdicts, while the other
who was convictd of murder In the
I third degree has appealed to the su-
perlor court and his case Is now pend
ing.
In addition to the 10 unapprehended
murderers, a similar number rendered
further Investigation useless 'by com
mitting suicide immediately after
committing their crime.
Eight mnrdeerrs entered a plea of
'.T rtcfT!" nrt succeeded In convinc
ing a Jury that such was the case,
while In only one Instance was the un
.vilUeil la plea resorted to In Jus
tification of the act.. Three alleged
murderers were discharged for lack
of evidence, and 18 cases, are still
awaiting trial.
Fifteen sacrifices of human life oc
curred while one or the other of the
parties were under the Influence of
Honor. Forty-three of the murders
were perpetrated by means of fire
arms Seven by use of the knife or a
blunt Instrument, and one, the mur
der of ex-Sheriff Harvey K. Brown at
Baker City, by upe of a bomb.
Jn the entire state there are no
murderers awaiting execution. George
Blodgutt, murderer of his paramour
in the city of Portland In 1906, and
convicted of murder In the first de
gree, Is still enjoying life, although
n prison while awaiting a new trial.
