LANE COUNTY PRISONERS | GET OPPORTUNITY TO PLY | OF MOONSHINING | . TRADE ----------------------------------- Bert Trask, who did a little sprint Thursday forenoon after a fellow who had victimized his store for twenty four simoleons on a worth less check, is convinced that the fellow who has the money can run faster than the fellow who has lost it, due propably to the fact thnt “money has wings’’ with which to assist the possessor thereof. A clerk in the Trask store had cashed a check for $24.50 on a small purchase while Mr. Trask was out for a few moments. When Mr. Trask returned and was shown tho check he became suspicions, called the bank and learned that it had no account in the name of the person whose name appeared ns signer of the check. The clerk was able to point «ait on the street the man who had presented the paper. Mr. Trask overhauled him anil asked him to come back and convince the bank that the check was all right. This he agreed to do but on the way to the bank he changed his mind, ab ruptly left Mr. Trask und made mo tions with his legs which indicated that ho intended to make himself rather scarce. Mr. Trask took up the chase but lost trace of his quarry in the woods a mile or so north of tho city. In his effort to make goo^ his escape, the fleeing man discarded his overcoat and in one pocket was found an opened letter which had been addressed to Carl Lindquist, 19(12 Eighty third avenue, Oakland, Calif. During the same day Marshal Pitcher became suspicious of the actions of two men- in a California car. After they had been questioned by the official they took tho first opportunity to get out of the city in’ a hurry. Pitcher believes that the bad check man had been a member of this party, thnt tho party had been loitering about the city until the opportunity came to cash a piece of bad paper and had intend ed to nt once make their getaway. During the evening Mr. Trask, in company with Marshal Pitcher, watched the road in the vicinity in which the bad check man had dis appeared, anticipating thnt he might attempt to reach the highway and make his getaway, but he did not appear and has not been seen since. That night a car was stolen in Eugene. Marshal Pitcher is of the opinion <hnt the fugitive made his way to Eugene, stole the ear there and probably overtook the other members of the party somewhere to the south. Apparently the Trask store was the only one victimized by this man, although a number of stores were victimized at ubout the same time by three young men who have been caught. Rumors have been trickling through for some time to the ef fect thnt county prisoners who have been put to work for the county have been required to work but eight hours a dav and have been permitted to spend the remainder of the time towsuit themselves, not even reporting to the county sheriff and not even spending their nights in the county jail. Other rumors have been to the effect that those convicted of bootlegging or moon shining have actually continued to ply their trade while technically prisoners of the county. That those have not been entirely idle rumors is illustrated by tho fact that Harry Melson, of Eugene, supposed to be serving a term of six months in the county jail and to bo working out a fine of $500 for illegal possession of liquor, is again charged wiht violation of the prohibition law, a warrant having been issued Monday in the Eugene municipal court for his arrest, but he could not be found when the officers were ready to serve it. Sheriff Stickels be lieves that he has left the city. elaon did not remain long in after his arrest in December. On the 28th he was sentenced to serve a six months’ term anil pay a fine of $500 and soon afterward was taken out of the county jail at the directioa of the county commis sioners nnd given work in the coun ty machinery barns as a blacksmith. »Sheriff Stickels said Monday that he had not spent a night in jail since. • The offense of which Melson is accused by the city is alleged to have been committed Sunday. It is charged that he sold a pint of moonshine, receiving $6 for it. Taxpayers are expressing th<> opinion that having prisoners work out their fines is good practice but that allowing them 16 hours of free time each day during their sentence is making a farce of the law. y Palmer Trial Starts. The trial of Janies Palmer, charged with murder in the second degree as tho result of his stabbing of Ralph Lammers on January 10, started in circuit court Tuesday. It was anticipated that the drawing of the jury would be completed yesterday and that the trial would be well under way by today. Forty eight talesmen were examined Tues day and 10 of those accepted. A number from here are attending tho trial. James Rinard Enjoys Navy Life. James Rinard, who is with tho United Blates navy, writes from New York to his parents, Mr. nnd Mrs. B. F.
