ALLISON FREE.
The Jury Instructed to Return a Ver
dict of Not Guilty. .
D. S. Allison is again a free man. At
the opening ot court this morning the
court announced his decision on the
motion of Judge Bennett, Allison's at
torney, for a dismissal. The court held
the indictment good, but that the facts
proven did not constitute a bailment.
That "the question is whether or not
the facts in this case show a bailment so
as to bring the case within the provi
sions of the indictment. The testi
mony in this case shows that on the de
livery of the wheat to defendant he
stowed it in a warehouse, and received
receipts in his own name. This is con
clusive evidence of the title of the prop
erty, as to whether there has been a
sale or a bailment. While the conduct
of the defendant may have been villain
ous and his transactions dishonest in
the extreme, yet, unless the case comes
within the provisions of the statute, the
court is not authorized to put a man
upon trial. The testimony in this case
showB a conditional sale, and the condi
tions were such as to preclude the idea
of any bailment. He had a title to the
property vested in him to that extent
that he could convey and transfer and
not be accountable to the bailor for the
return of the property at all. While
the evidence in this case develops a very
crooked and vicious transaction on the
part of .the defendant, yet the court
rules that these facts constitute no bail
ment in this case, and without which
no conviction could tbe had under the
indictment."
The court then instructed the jury to
bring in a verdict of not guilty.
Crushed to a Pulp.
Oscar Kendall, a resident of Benton

that way and Kendall replied that if it
did he could get the coat and get out of
the way before the tree could fall. It
went straight toward the coat, and Ken
dall started on the rash attempt to save
it. Just as he reached it he slipped and
fell, and before he could rise the immense
tree, four feet in diameter caught him.
It fell squarely across his body, and the
stomach and abdomen were crushed to a
pulp. He never spoke. Death was in
stantaneous. The deceased was 65 years
of age and an Oregon pioneer. His par

where poverty is at a premium and any
evidence of prosperity is assessed for
fines. Circulars have been distributed,

that ignorance and poverty go band in

which is the highest with one exception,

to pay 25 cents for the privilege. The

THE GRANGE.
State Lecturer Hayes' Response to the
Mayor's Welcome.
The remainder of the session of the
State Grange will be secret. The re
sponse of H. E. Hayes to the mayor's
address of welcome was briefly as fol
lows :
Patrons of Husbandry means agricul
turists. Upon agriculture depends the
welfare of all classes. The future wel
fare of this great section depends not on
the great corporate thoroughfare, but
upon the development of its great river,
and all are interested in its being speed
ily opened.
The Grange is a school, the farmers'
school, in which they are learning rap
idly. Among the farmers are found the
grandest statesmen of the times, and in
the Grange is where they are educated.
Ab farmers we want such laws as will
leave a margin of profit in the hands of
the producer. The people must have
some power of veto. At the present
rate of appropriation the tax rate is
liable to reach almost three per cent.,
leaving little or no margin of profit.
In our Grange we discuss our mone
tary system, our taxation system, the
transportation question, and, indeed, all.
questions that affect our prosperity as a
people.
We must see to it that those who till
the soil have a title to the same, for
when the tillers own the soil, they will
defend their country, educate their
children and assist in making the whole
country prosperous.
There is no class more to be de
pended upon for an open river than the
agriculturists.
After listening to Mayor Mays' elo
quent address of welcome, Lecturer
Hayes' response, and Master Boise's
annual address, the Grange took a half
hour recess. After recess the Grange
met in secret session and listened to the
report of the treasurer, committee on
woman's work, committee on creden
tials, and the committee on agricultural
college. Dr. Casto, in making the re-
Vport of the agricultural college commit
tee, said that there has been 281 stu-
iiculs emuiiuu m me liiswiuuoii bins
Fear. Ninety-six of the students are
froung ladles, while 185 are young men.
(One hundred young gentlemen live at
the Canthoru hall, and 20 young women
room at the girl's hall, while 161 find
board and lodging in the city of Corval
lis or on adjoining farms. Forty-two
are taking the agricultural course, and
49 are taking the mechanical course.
Sixty-eight are taking the household
economy course.
After listening to some suggestions
from John Medlar, the Grange proceed
ed to consider some financial business,
and afterward heard the reports from
the several counties which were referred
to the proper committees.
Several resolutions favoring the free
and unlimited coinage of silver were re
ferred to the committee on legislation.
A resolution favoring a law that will al
low women the privilege of signing pe
titions for or against saloon licenses, was
referred to the same committee. A res
olution fayoring the re-enactment of the
mortgage tax law, another favoring the
election of U. S. senators by direct vote
of the people, and many similar ones
were offered.
The Grange then took a recess until 7
p. in., at which time the unwritten work
of the order was exemplified.
WEDNESDAY MORNING.
After opening exercises, considerable
time was absorbed by the reading of the
minutes, secretary's report, reports of
cominitteess, and the Lecturer's report.
A resolution favoring no exemption
from taxation, and others were laid on
the table. Hilliary's resolution regard
ing free coinage of silver called forth sev
eral eloquent speeches.
Some committees on condolence were
appointed, and some standing commit
tees made reports.
Friendly greetings from the W. C. T.
U. were read by one of the sisters. It
was ordered that the greetings be spread
on our minutes and that a suitable re
sponse be made.
Some amendments to the by-laws
were offered by different members.
After considerable profitable discussion
the Grange took a noon recess.
The face of William Muldoon, as
pictured in current lithographs, has a
family likeness to that of the famous
Greek pugilist represented in a plas
ter cast of much interest at the Metro
politan museum of art. Nose, lips and
brow are strikingly alike in the Greek
and American professors of the manly
art.
Antique Church Plate.
St. Peter's Episcopal church in Al
bany has a silver communion service
one hundred and seventy-eight years
old which is a companion set to that
held for the descendants of the Mo
hawks by a clergyman in Canada. It
seems that Queen Anne sent two serv
ices over, one for the Mohawks then
living in the New York colony and the
other for St. Peter's, Albany. The Mo
hawk service followed the Indians into
exile, and has been carefully pre
served by the persons to whom it has
been intrusted by the councils of chiefs
from time to time.
Qood Job Printing.
If you have your job printing done at
The Chronicle you will have the ad
vantage of having it done with the most
modern and approved type, with which
we keep continually supplied. All jobs
under the direct supervision of one of
the most successful and artistic printers
in the Northwest.
It is a well-deserved victory for them.
The way they throw their entire stock
before the public, they cannot help but
sell lots of goods, as we saw with our
own eyes goods going out at 50 per cent,
less than they can be bought elsewhere.
We have learned that there is no less
than 20 cases on the way of assorted
