The Wheat Swindlers.
Sheriff Sloan arrived here last Monday
morning with. Michael Hogan, the $15 per
bushel whoat seller. H retained as his law
yers C. D. Latourette, of Oregou City, and
Washburne Jt Woodcock, of tui city. Th
fanners employed to prosecute the case,
Messrs. Ij. isuyeu aud J. JS. teuton, Judg
Walton, Deputy Prosecutins Attorney, beim-
abseut in Corvalli. The prisoner was r-
raigued Tuesday before JudL'e Kinsev and
plead not guilty to the oomp'laiut, which
charged him with gross fraud. Jadge Kin
sey set the trial for Friday at 10 A. M and
at the time of going to press it was progress
ing slowly, every point being hotly contested
by the attorneys.
Baty, the partner in the swiudle, is safely
in Victoria, spending bis portion of the ill-
got teu gains. If thoie is not a law whereby
such rogues can be punished, oue should be
uuctud at once. However, the chauoes
suem quit favorablo that Hogan will at hi
meats at balsin during (lie next year or two.
Ou last Tuesday Hoeau commenced auit
against Mr. J. C. Yates, who signed the
complaiut against hitu for the sum of $5,000
damages to his tharacter. This is the rich
st joke in th play. The idea that the char
aoter of Hogan could be damaged iu auy
sum! W will pay the judgment against
Yutes for the sum of 50 ctu.
Now w are compelled to chronicle a mat
ter that is a painful task. Mr. W. A. Baker
ou of our best citizens, say that he was
approached and purchased " $300 worth of
wnsat; ttiat Jlr. ltert Lake, au iusurauce
agent of Eugsne advised him to purchase,
saying it was a good speculation aud that if
it bud not ueeu (or Mr. Lakes repre
sentations he would not have beeu swindled,
If Lak was knowing to the swindle he was
worse than Hogau st al. If Lake wants to
make any sxplauation of the matter we offer
nim the use of eur columns. Certainly, an
explanation should be coming.
The Orecon City Enterprise of this week
has the following to say of Hogan aud Baty,
the wheat swindlers:
"It appears that one Houan is at the head
of the concern, He cam from Michigan
aud is said to be the same par'y that ran the
liobciuian oats swindle in the Western Mutes
a few years agd. He first tried to interest C.
D. Latourette in his scheme, but failing.
succeeded in securing the co-operation of A.
8. Baty Bud a Portland party. Ex-Uov.
Woods was selected as President nt a salary
of $50 per mouth, having been told that th
position was merely an honorary one.
Hogan was arrested in Sau Francisco.
Baty is evidently in Victoria yet, as he wrote
hi wife to disiios of all their things here
and meet him there. The household goods
were sold Saturday evening and she left the
first of the week.
Win. Barlow of Barlow Station was made
their shipping agent. From him they are
said to have purchase 8J bushels, from Mr.
Smith of Molalla a considerable quantity at
$1, and from another party quite a supply;
enough in all to enable them to olear up
about $ih,H'u.
Upon the arrest in Albany Gov, Wood
seviss to have lost no time in sending in his
resignation, rightly judging thut lie was
among a slippery crowd.
Hogan is the same fellow who a few years
Biuce visited these parts selling bills of goods
to farmers. Goods worth $15 he would get
$150 for taking in payment the farmer's
note. All together bis career steins to have
been not without an occasional ripple of ex
citement. Give the grangers of Lima coun
ty but au oportuuity to pronounce Verdict
011 bis'case, and they will not remain out
long. It is to be hoped that they may have
the chance.
W S. Johnny.
About a year ago Warm Spriag Johnny
waa tried at Euguna ou the charge of at
tempting to rob the Lau County Treasurer's
office, aud was convicted aud sentenced to
three years' imprisonment in the State peni
tentiary. There Was a gensral belief, shared
by the Democrat, at th time, thut Johnny
was not guilty. Th msmbers of th O. A.
K. of Eugene have come to this conclusion,
from a letter received from Chief of Polic
Parrish of Portland, and will petition the
Governor for the pardon of Johnny. Mr,
Parrish recently learned that a man just sent
to th Moatana penitentiary confessed to
having been th on whe attempted to rob
the Treasurer's oflic and the matter will b
investigated. Johnny' attorney, Hon. L.
II. Moutany, of thi city, is doing what he
can to learn th truth of the matter. It
looks very much a if Johnny had been
wrongfully imprisoned, and there i certainly
enough iu the proof to eutitle him to a par
don. A petition would be generally sigued
in Albany. Albany Democrat.
The Allmny Herald has also made a simi
lar statement. It is evidently the work of
the attorneys of Johnny. Tb U. A. R. Post
of this city has not petitioned for his pardon,
nor have agreed to. The confession is thin.
Undoubtedly there w. re two parties in th
robbrry, for Messrs. Witter and Clark, night
watchmen, saw then running away, and from
the evidence adduced at the trial it was cer
tsinly proven that Johnny was one of them.
The jury that tried him was only out a few
minutes, at conclusive waa the testimony,
although Im was di-fended by thrte able at
t rr.c ys, Mr. M iutauye being on of th
number. One thing is rertaia, aud that is
that whenever notice of pardon is givn, a
Urg'i rem mstr.ince will b filed, lieiides,
wbtn he mas here a inre nnnibrr (if petty
larc iio s prevailed, which oeoswt when he
was locked up. Three year is short enough
for bun, considering the enormity of hi
criuit.
