LAWYERS HIRED TO GET CONVICTS OUT ARE BANNED Governor and Parole Board Denounce Partice of Some "Attorneys FIRM STAND IS TAKEN Custom Commercialles Hu man Liberty Is Attitude of Officials Governor Olcott and the state pa role boartl will not consider the ap plications of hired attorneys appear ing on behalf of any prisoner at the state penitentiary to ask parole or pardon. The governor declares that such petitions on the part to f paid lawyers serve rather to prejudice lh3 board and the executive officers against the convice rather than to gain favor for him. I The stand of the governor and board is taken with the view to elim inate the practice of lawyers who are on the pay of relatives or friends ol the prisoners and who collect their fees often causing great sacri those employing them. Recommendations Necessary The governor makes it clear that executive clemency will only be ex tended in cases where there Is' cer tainty that innocent men are wrong fully Imprisoned and in those cases which are specifically recommended by the presiding judge and the dis trict attorney who acted at the time of the trial. Governor Olcott declares, however- that relatives and friends of prison careful hearing without the "service of an attorney. He holds that th practice of attorneys in such cases is a commercialization of human lib erty." -;-r - - --- - - " Statement J.4 Detailed The 'statement in full follows: "Neither the executive offices, nor the state .parole board wjll listen to attorneys who are paid to appear In behalf of some prisoner, seeking to gain executive clemency.- In. a state ment issued today by Governor Ol cott he says: "Pathetic instances have come to my notice where relatives or friends of a convicted man have made great financial sacrifice to pay a fee to an attorney to make a plea for se curing executive clemency for him- I believe that this is unjust, but to such relatives and friends and th convicted man. and I wish It plainly understood that representations In behalf of a prisoner, coming from someone paid to make such repre sentations, "rather, prejudice than as sist the cause of such prisoner. J cannot countenance or tacitly en courage such commercializing of hu man liberty. f : u ; Relative- Always Heard 'It has been my practice always to give' a respectful and considerate hearing to every person who, disin terestedly, wishes to present a plea- for clemency. Friends or relative will be accorded such a hearing with out the Interposition of an attorney- "I wish to say further in explain ing my position, that applications for conditional pardons will be given ho consideration, except in most extra ordinary cases where there seems to be a certainty that some innocent man has been wrongfully convicted until specific affirmative recommen dations, for granting such clemency are received from both the presiding judge and district attorney who act ed for the state at the time of the prisoner's trial and conviction. Thl custom has been adhered to In ev ery case that has come before me ex cept where extraordinary circum stances obtained.) Judge's Judgment Ret "Obviously, the executive offices cannot be familiar with the circum stances surrounding the cases of th hundreds of men who are sentenced to the penitentiary or to county jails The men, who best know these cir cumstances are the judge and th district attorney who acted on the case." - ; VARSITY WINS FROM CHEMAWA Score of 28 to 0 is Run Up on Red Men Freshmen Show Up Well In a one-sided football- game on Sweetland? field yesterday : afternoon the Willamette university Bearcats walloped the Chemawa Indians by a 28 to 0 score. The red men did not show the fight that was expected and Willamette had a clear walk-away from the start. Not long after the first kick-off. Irvine, the Methodist's sturdy quar terback, carried the ball over the Koal for the first touchdown. Cap tain Dimick kicked the Ball over the goal, making a total of seven points in tne first quarter. There were two touchdowns in the second quarter and one in the third, Irvine making one of these, Zeller one and Dimick the other. .The ball came within two or three yards of Willamette's goal several times in the last quarter, but each time the Indians rallied and kept the winners from farther in creasing their score. Harold Tobie, just returned to col lege and with but two days training, played in the game all but the last two minutes when Ramsey took his place. Tobie showed his real saliber at tackle and many plays were brok en by his Interference. Tobie played in the last Wlllamette-Chemawa game whlchwas In 1915. Zeller, a freshman playing right half, played an exceedingly strong game, making - one of the touch' downs. Three freshmen played the entire game and three others were sent in as subs in the last few mtn utes of play. Most of the yardage was made by mass plays, Cheiuawa not being able to hold the line. Theie were no ser ious accidents though several men were taken out during the last min utes. The line! up was as follows: Willamettel Chemawa.

FIGHT MADE FOR 1W0FFICERS Police Committee and Busi- ness Men Ask That Moffitt and Ganiard Stay Dr. F. L. Utter, chairman of the police committee, said yesterday that fmembers of the police committee and certain business men of Salem will ask the city council to sustain the recent appointments of V. M.

No Entries on Coos Bay and 0i &C Grants Until Spring, Decision . irw r Opening of the ramlning agricul tural lands In the Coos Bay wagon road and 'the Oregon & California land grants will be deferred until .ar iy next spring says Information ie ceived in Salem from Representative W. C. Hawley at Washington, who Is In receipt of a letter from Clay Tallman. commissioner of the gen eral land office. :Tiie reason, for this is that if the lands were opened now the filing and entry period would be at the middle of the win ter season, which Is deemed-Inadvisable. Prior to the spring opening maps and data will be prepared. Mr. Hawley wrote Mi Tallman recently relative to opening the lands, since it is av subject in which many Oregon people are" Intensely interested. Mr. Talman has replied to the congressman that while in the west he made a careful canvass of the situation and found the concen sus of opinion to be that the opening should be deferred until spring. Mr. Tallman expects to have maps and date out by the latter part of De cember or early in January. PURSES TO OPEN FOR RED CROSS ! - Campaign for Great World Relief Society Will Be on November 3 to 11 The third Red Cross roH call will be put over in the United States be tween November 3 and 11. The hearty response will demonstrate Just how well informed the American pub lie has become with regard to the proper Tunctioning-of -the great so ciety and how it has come to be re garded, by loyal "Americans. The Red Cross is the greatest of ficial emergency-and reliability agen cy In the world. In the Corpus Chris ti disaster the national headquarters made an appropriation of a million dollars and within 24 hoars two train loads of supplies were on their way to carry on the work of relief. Many other instances could be mentioned. In case of epidemics like Influenza last fall more lives were saved in this country by the Red Cross than were saved by the American troops In Europe connected with the same ageney. In logging camps. Eskimo villages. In remote conntry places the number of Uvea savfd can scarcely be estimated. The Red Cross protects the public. Its efforts to prevent disease among school children, especially tuberculo sis and diseases resulting from neg lect and malnutrition is sufficient to cause everyone to support it. It also trains the public in the prevention of accident. The public charter of the Red Cross was signed by President Roose velt. So important is it considered that one entire article of the league of nations is devoted to the future of the Red Cross. , When the solicitors call on yon be ready to enroll your name and pay your dollar. All you need to enroll Is a dollar and a heart. Every true American will enroll during this cam paign.
