Humphrey pi 31a- rion County Detention FolIoTved His Return to tlie State. SALEM, Oct. 15. District Attorney Hart today filed an information charging A. M. Humphrey -with larceny by bailee. The offense charged Is the taking of wheat stored by farmers in the Humphrey ware houses at Salem and Macleay, In this county. The amount of wheat -which Humphrey failed to turn over to the storers or to account for in any mannner aggregates thousands of bushels. Humphrey Is about 45 years old. and comes of one -of the best-known -pioneer families In this county. He was born and raised in the 'Waldo Hills, and it was be cause of the good business and social standing of his family that he was en abled to secure possession of large tjuan tltles of wheat. After the failure of E. E. McKinney, four years ago. farmers In Ma rlon County were very careful in their dealings with warehousemen, especially since it has heen found almost impossible to convict -a warehouseman who sells a farmer's wheat and refuses to account for It. But up to a year ago Humphrey had managed to build up a large business and had the entire confidence of the com munity. Soon after the close of the haul ing season last Fall, it was learned that Humphrey was short in his wheat ac counts, and the farmers demanded a set tlement. Humphrey could neither settle nor tell the farmers what .had been done with -their grain. He offered a compro mise at so low a figure that personal vio lence was threatened him. Boon after the discovery of his shortage. Humphrey left the state and was reported to be In CaiN fornlav It was recently learned that he hadTeturned to Portland, and the District Attorney immediately took up the case, examined witnesses and filed an informa tion. The warrant for Humphrey's ar rest was telegraphed to Portland, where the defendant was arrested. This after noon Humphrey telephoned to Sherlfi! Dur bln. asking him to instruct the Multno mah County Sheriff to let him go on his own recognizance Because of Humph rey's long absence and his anxiety for his temporary liberty, the request was re fused and Sheriff Frazier was instructed to hold Humphrey as he would any other prisoner. Deputy Sheriff Colbath went to Portland this evening to bring the prisoner to Salem. Public feeling against Humphrey is quite strong, because he has not tried to make any explanation of the shortage. ThoU rands of dollars worth of wheat were lost in the McKinney warehouses four years ago, and the farmers lost heavily again by rrason of the burning of the Salem flour ing mill two years ago. A short crop of wheat last year left the fanners of this vicinity in poor condition, and then when Ihc-y los considerable quantities by Humphrey's failure, they were almost ready to. Tesort to violence in order to redress their wrongs. Humphrey was brought to Salem to n.ght, and as there was no bond forth coming, he was locked up in the County Jail. His ball has been fixed at $300. Vlcahetl Sot Guilty. The following defendants t pleaded not guilty tod"ay to the criminal charges against them: Henry Sullivan, criminal aEsault; John Gow and Louis Durenberg. selling liquor to a minor; John Kelly, assault with In tent to kill; Fred Fisher, larceny from a shop.

Wright, who was temporarily In charge of the Warm Springs Indian School Oregon, pending the arrival of the new s superintendent, takes occasion to comment favorably upon conditions as he found them at that institution. Mr. Wright says he found the Warm Springs Indians very skillful with -tools, and well able to handle their farm machinery and shoe their horses. But, he adds, "they knew these things because they had the work to do." They had no an nuities or allowances; and were obliged to cultivate their little farms and herd their little bands of cattle and sheep. . Parenthetically, Mr. Wright remarks that he saw the ponies of these Indians made Into "canned roast beef." ( The Warm Springs Indians are self supporting and Industrious. His exper ience at the Oregon reservation has sat isfied Mr. Wright that what the Indian Is most in need of Is not so much special educational facilities as- incentives to work. His theory Is that the Indian can work, but that necessity rather than a scholastic education will best teach him to work. As long as there are annuities, it will be Impossible to make the Ameri can Indian work. A REGULAR CLOUDBURST. Hunltar Creelc, in the North, Cleaned Out From End to End. VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct. 15.
