The Oregonian's front pagvjLuren A. nuo(h wm, uuIUh) lu
article last Monday, relative to the marriage at s o'clock Thursday
burning of Wilfred Grain's barn evening at the residence f the
and haystacks, in which direct bri,u''s Pwti In this city. The
, , . ,, Rev. J. Authoiiy Mitchell. paUr of
defendants in the land fraud cases
are responsible for the conflagra
tion, reaches the limit of that
papers efforts to poison the public
mind before the third trial of
these men has been brought to a
close and before their guilt 01
innocence has been established.
Heretofore the Oregon ian has
claimed that it gave fair and
impartial statements regarding
the accumulation of evidence
against the defendant and the
progress of the two former trials,
and that it sought to deal only
in unbiased facts. So much, then,
for the Oregonian's oft quoted
position in a matter in which the
whole state is interested and
watching jvith careful eyes. But
the public should decide for itself
whether, a fire, altogether remote
in every detail either in cause or
effect, from the cases now Wing
tried, should le laid as an act of
incendiarism at the doors of the
defendants solely as a statement
intended to blacken the characters !
of the men whom the Oregonian
views with political hatred. And
the crime of instigating the fire
charged against them because it
so happened that the property
destroyed belonged to one of the
government's witnesses.
Williamson, Gesner and Biggs
"Stand indicted on a charge of
subornation of perjury. The law
presumes these men innocent until
a preponderance of evidence shall
prove them guilty. If innocent,
the government has made a serious
mistake even in the face of the
Oregonian's basely fake article of
last Monday. If guilty, the
evidence against the defendants
should be confined to their alleged
acts in attempting to gain poses-
sion of more land, and not to the
office suppositions of a newspaper
which pretends to fairness. But
whether innocent or guilty, no
man possessed of sound mentality
can view the article referred to in
any other light than one founded
on abuse and insult, wholly
wrong in its conception and steep
ed in persecution and insidious
deception.
The Oregonian can no longer
lay claim to the assertion that it is
not engaged in vilifying the men
now on trial. And no man, or
men, guilty of the most heinous
transgression of the statutes, could
have been more unfairly dealt
with or with more manifest ani
mosity than was shown in the
aJticle mentioned. Then again,
a verdict from the jury will
probably set better in the mind of
the public than the presupposed
conditions and outcome of the
trial so obviously shown in the
Oregonian's treatment of the
present case.

DEATH OF
1 R. LYLE
There is a standing reward on
the records of the county payable
for information leading to the ar
rest and conviction of a person or
persons guilty of arson, and the
reward is made especially ap
plicable in such cases as that of
the Crane fire after which, the
Oregonian states, the tracks of
three men were traced to this
city. As a matter of fact no such
incident occurred and if it had it
is not probable that after tracing
them several miles a person in
terested would have been satisfied
to turn back without causing the
arrest of the criminals. At this
point the Oregonian's story is
particularly weak and it is difficult
to understand the motive which
that paper has in construing
nearly eAerything pertaining to
this county in a false and
malicious light.
A. K. Lyle, one of the oldeet
and most widely known residents
of Crook county, dropped dead of
heart failure in Nau's drug store,
Portland, at 5 o'clock last Friday
morning. Mr. Lyle had gone to
the store in search of medical
assistance. He made known to
the drug clerk that he was in need
of assistance and while the clerk
was in the act of summoning a
doctor by phone, Mr. Lyle sank
to the floor unconscious. Death
ensued a few moments afterwards.
Deceased went to Portland from
his ranch at Heisler last Thursday
in company with Joe Stewart and
they were on their way to Dallas,
where Mr. Lyle was largely in
terested in a hop field.
The body was taken in charge
by Coroner Finley and sent to
Dallas where the funeral was held
the first of this week.
Mr. Lyle was known as one of
the most prominent cattlemen in
the state, and was perhaps the
best-known man in Crook county.
He had been engaged in cattle
raising and farming here for 27
years, and during that time ac-
quiied valuable land. He was
reputed as being very wealthy.
Two terms he represented his dis
trict in the State Legislature,
where he gained considerable
reputation as a fearless, outspokan
man.
He was born .at Dallas, Polk
county, in 1854, and has spent
nearly his entire life in this state.
He was a single man and his only
living relatives are his sisters,
Mrs. Glenn, of Eugene, and Mrs.
Harriet Veazie, of 74" Overton
street, Portland, and a brother,
William Lyle, who is engaged in
mining in the eastern part of the
state. "
Mr. Lyle had only recently been
appointed postmaster at Heisler.
