McDaniel Back from
Pen for New Trial
Sheriff Elkins returned Tuesday 'delightful luncheon and shower
morning from Salem with Gaylord j S'ven by. Mesdames Kayler. Smith,
McDaniel, who has teen granted a j Elkins and Win nek with Miss Her
new trial for the murder of Her-; n,an 113 ne honor guest. This was
man Poch. He was convicted of,1" last regular meeting of the
murder in the second degree at the Shirans. Literary Club for the year
May, 1913, term of the district nd he members were glad of an
court and was sentenced by Judge
Bradshaw to life imprisonment.
McDaniel has been in the peni
tentiary about a year. He does not
show any signs of his confinement
He has made a model prisoner and
aftr tho first mnnth was mndt a i
in the corridors, locked and un
locked the main line cells, etc.
The prisoners have the use of a
good library, he says, ball grounds
and other forms of exercise.
McDaniel says he was not even
"hung up" for any infraction of
prison rules. On being questioned as
to what he meant by "hung up" the
Journal man was informed that
minor breaches of discipline were
punished by tying the arms of
prisoners above their heads and
causing them to be held in that
attitude from eight to twelve hours,
according to the nature of the of
fense committed. "Its an ordeal
that one does not want to go
through a second time," said Mc
Daniel. "Your arms are drawn up
through the bars of your cell door
and then your hands are hand
cuffed on the outside. The ordi
nary prisoner does not want a
second dose but there are some
hardened criminals that nothing
short of solitary confinement seems
to have any effect upon. The soli
tary cell, though, subdues the worst
of them. Out of some 300 or 400
convicts omy seven were in con
finement when I left. Two men
paid the death penalty while I was
there," said McDanied.
McDaniel was in a cheerful frame
of mind upon his arrival and said
he was mighty glad to get back
again.

The toll of tuberculosis is claiming
more than 350 victims every day in the

all exert the weakening influence that
invites consumption.
To guard against consumption, thou

Crop Prospects
Never Better
Crop prospects in Crook county
were never brighter at this time of
the year than at the present time.
Recent rains and warm weather are
working wonders in an agricultural
way. New land is being brought
under cultivation at a rapid rate.
The brown sagebrush landscape Is
giving way to smiling grain fields in
every direction from Prineville. New
irrigating ditches and the extension
and enlargement of old ones are big
factors in this transformation. The
dairy herd and the hog lot, too, are
working together for a bigger.better
and more prosperous farming com
munity.
Good Fruit Crop
Is Expected
F. F. Bolin, who has leased the
Gibson place, says he will have
about half a crop of fruit this year.
It was reported that the frost had
killed the entire crop but such is
not true, Mr. Bolin says.
A good crop of fruit is looked for
at the Cove Orchard. The pros
pects so far are very encouraging.
It Is wise to be sure, but otherwise
to be too sure. .
There are more ways than ons lor a
woman to have her way.

Noxious Weeds
Must be Destroyed
Weeds must be destroyed. Thus
saith the county court but the
aforesaid court has said so before
yet the weeds go merrily on and
increase and multiply. This time
the county has been divided into
three parts so that each member of
the court will have something to
iook arter. isot mat tney are go
ing to relieve the road supervisors
of their responsibility in the matter,
but rather to check up negligent
supervisors who fail to do their
duty.
The law has fixed fines ranging
from 10 to $25 for the first of
fense and from 25 to 1 100 for
each second or subsequent offense
for allowing Canada, Chinese or
Russian thistle, cocklebur, white or
Jim Hill mustard, or silver salt
bush to grow upon your premises
or along the road abutting your
premises. Unless something is
done to check the growth of these
noxious weeds they will take the
country. The court will not brook
further delay in this matter.
