RADER, ON STAND,
SAYS HE SHOT IN
HIS OWN DEFENSE
'Pendleton, Dec. 9.- Slightly nerv
ous, but detailing: coherently the
events leading up to the shooting
' and the actual shooting. Frits Rader
told his story on the witness stand
Wednesday ot the McGUe killing
In Granf county, February. 1918. for
which killing he is being retried
after once being convicted on the
charge of manslaughter.
Frank Halthe only -Witness" present
at the homicide, was called earlier m
. the day by the defense, after the state
had refused to . uss him as a witness
, and he told of the fight in which Mc
Cue was shot by Rader, his answers
to the attorneys' questions leading to
.the belief , that RadeC shot in self
defense after he had been attacked by
McCue. v ' ' '
FLEAIIS REI-r.I)FEN8K
-.Rader; when placed on the stand, told
a story confirming the statements of
: Hale and indicating that he shot in
. self-defense. . "
"We. Hale and 1, rode up to McCue's
cabin and I went in to settle with Mc-
' Cue for a pasture bill that he owed my
! father. We talked a few minutes and
then 1 called, Hale in to keep warm as
it was cold outside, Wben I asked him
what he was going to do about the
money, be said with an oath that he
: was not going to do anything about it.
Hale went out again and after a few
- more words -McCue struck me from be
hind and threw ma on the floor, beating
my: head.': In answer to my cries for
; help, Hale returned and told McCue
i that he would ' take ms away. Hale
' dragged me to the door; McCue struct
at me again, : and it was then that I
! drew my gun." - . .
THTIEATS BKCOUNTED
"Evidence presented -showed ' that Mc-
' Cue was a big man and - Rader is
' rather slight. Four witnesses stated
that McCue had made threats regard-
t ing Rader. and other witnesses testified
that it was the custom of 'the country
for ail range riders to carry at least
two guns.
The defense rested its presentation of
evidence and the case Will be argued
after rebuttal witnesses are called.

situation today. -

reached if there was willingness on the
other side to do so," declared Skinner.
' In apparent retort, O'Brien averred
; that a few years ago the union termi
nal could have been consummated that
the purchase of the present station and
terminal property of the S., P. & S, was
, contemplated by the terminal Company,
but that a , representative of. the Hill
lines, who was also a director in the
i "mrnal company, took advantage of
the information he had 'gained, in tike
latter company, to hurry the purchase
of the property by the Hill lines.
''The Hill lines which once blocked a
union terminal when Mr. Harrlman had
. agreed to it, are now the ones - who
" come asking that we let them have the
cream of our facilities, our double
ended tracks, while our trains are de-
; layed or we use their stub end tracks,"'
O'Brien continued.
FtLL SERVICE ALLEGED .
"We are serving that part of the pub
ifc which is our responsibility and we
should not be put in the position of
'seeming to block a union terminal
after all we have done to provide termi
nal facilities," said Spencer.
" - "If we sinned once but see our faylt
and are willing to start anew, why
shouldn't we be permitted to?" laughed
: Gilman. . ,
i The estimate of the vice president of
the Great Northern was that an invest
ment of $75,000 would be sufficient for
Immediate union terminal arrangement.
:. Ben C. Deyy for the Southern Pacific,
thought- the amount would be nearer
. 11,000,000 to meet Portland's expecta-
-'Hioiis. O'Brien said that if the terminal
plan went- through It was his personal'
opinion freight trucks near the present
Union depot should be utilized for pas-,
senger trains and that property at
Guild's, lake should be developed as a
freight terminal yard at a probable ex-
v pense of $1,000,000 to fl.SOQ.000.

"up to" that time all to smithereens . by

construction of highways in nearly every
place and In practically every direction.

BILLS TO BRING FIGHT
They and other special highway bills
are scheduled to provoke a battle dur
ing -the session that much is promised.
It Is intimated that various members
have new bills in their pockets provid
ing for new roads, and there is no tell
ing where it will stop if the flood starts
again,
. Those Eastern Oregon members who
have r expressed .themselves upon the
road construction problem seem to favor
the proposal that the highway commis
sion be given power to issue bonds up
to the 4 per cent limitation and . to
keep the issues up to that maximum
until all of the road program has been
financed and finished. But -and this
contention msy breed strife they con
tend that definite statutory provision
should be made for Eastern -and Cen
tral Oregon construction to, be carried
on coincidentaliy, at least, with work
done on Western Oregon's designated
highways. . ;
In brief,' the future highway construc-
ftion program and policy of the state
will have to be definitely determined
by the coming legislature, and satisfac
torily to the interests of the upland dis
tricts, or there, will be battle in the air.
