Geo. M. and Chas. T. Humphry's,
of above Banks, were indicted
last Friday at Corvallis, the State
charging murder in the first de
gree. They were taken into
court and each pleaded not guil
ty. Both refuse to talk to any
except their lawyers, and the
brothers have hired J. A. Jef
frey, who defended Roselair, to
take their cases into the Benton
County court. Each has signed
a written confession, exactly like
l?n(lnir unit now pnrh trips tn
dodge that confession. The cases
will probably go to trial within a
few days.
C. P. Huntington, a Yoncalla
real estate dealer, who sold the
Humphrys' place, before they
moved to Philomath, wrote Sher
iff Hancock a letter the other
day, telling that official that Geo.
still owes him $40 of an unpaid
commission. Huntington says
he and George mixed over the
deal, and that he gave Hum
phrys a thrashing but it did
not bring the commission. Huti
phrys paid $45 on the account,
but never came through w ith the
nihor If nntinitnn savs that
George Humphrys threatened to
kill him. the xoncaila man
wants to know if there is anv
chance for him to get his money.
Judging from the $z,iuu mort
gage on the Humphry's property
above Banks it would seem
mighty slim picking for anyone,
and it must look rather scalv

our old friend J. A. Jeffrey, who
is to defend,
fl H Cline. the militant M. E.
minister, formerly of Hillsboro,
writes the Ore iron I an as follows.
anent the case: "With many
others, no doubt. I am perplexed.
the Humphrys brothers, from
press reports, were making a
clean breast -of their crimes,
most atrocious and sickening,
till counsel a lawyer was em
ployed to advise them. Then all
changed suddenly! Their jawt
were closed like a steel trap, anc
whpn arraitrnwl nleaded "not

Promptness means that we have the fresh

signifies that the very highest skill is used
