PRICES FOR BALED HAY.
Why Eastern Oregon Product Sells
Hither Tlmn Willamette Ynllry.
There mny be nnother explanation
for the facts stated In the following
quotation than difference of quality
In favor of the eastern Oregon hay,
says the Portland Telegram. Most of
the land In the Willamette valley
which produced timothy had 10 or 15
years ago has been plowed up and put
to more profitable uses. What is left
cannot yield much, If any, more than
Is consumed by the farmer's team nt
home.
"According to authentic reports fur
nished the Haker City Democrat the
farmers In the Haines neighborhood
alone have furnished for shipment to
Portland this season 4000 tons of
iffled timothy hay. The price realiz
ed on board tho cars was 310 per ton.
"The latest Portland quotations
give the selling price of eastern Oro
gon timothy at 1 3.60 Si 14.50 per ton.
This compares something more than
lavorably wlpi Willamette valley
grown hay, which sold at $8 to $10
during the same period.
Suits for Divorce.
Peter West today filed an action for
divorce for Mrs. Bessie Mny Tobln
against John Tobln and for Thomas
J. Ennls ngnlnst D-ucella E. Ennls.

Yertcrduy Afternoon.
The following Is an account of the
proceedings yesterday afternoon,
which occurred too late for publica
tion last evening:
Colonel Roloy'g Address.
"May It please your honor, and gen
tlemen of the Jury:
"For almost two weeks we have
attempted to wade through this pile
of books and this mass of evidence In
order to sum up the case that you
may arrive at a Just verdict and a Just
conclusion as to whether or not there
is a shortage In the sheriffs office.
"I want to say to you that there Ij,
no phortage in the sheriffs office,
I believe before I am through that
you will come to the same couvlusion.
Two Defenses.
"jMow a defendant, when he Is upon
trial, is entitled to every defense that
he may make. If. at times, there has
... - .
seemed to be a airrerence d
my co-counsl and myself It Is because
there are two defenses.
. "I have taken the position from
the opening of the trial that there Is
no shortage.' If my argument differs
somewhat from the argument of my
co-counsel take Into consideration
that there are two defenses.
"Take the receipts that were Issued
out of the sheriff's office whenever
one of you paid In his taxes. You take
a receipt. When that is done so much
money should be charged against the
man who received It. Whenever the
sheriff accounts to the county treas
urer for the money he should be cred
ited and after the final settlement
there should be no charge against
him. When some of the money is not
so turned over there would be a
shortage. But If you undertake to
say that for one certain year or one
certain time all the money is not ac
counted for. Is it fair to say thnt there
Is a shortage? The expert has testi
fied that a greater amount was paid
in some years than was collected. In
summing up this case we must first
determine If there is a shortage.
Rnley's Theory of Erasure.
"Here is where the difference be
tween the two defenses clash. But I
cannot afford now to explain how
that exists. I don't care who made
the figures. I don't know whether
Davis made those figures or not, and
I don't know whether they were made
by Funk. I don't want you to detract
from tho argument of Judge Fee.
The theory Is Just as plain to mo ns if
I had seen those figures changed. If
I had been there I would have done
the same if my theory is correct.
Now, you take into consideration the
amount of the receipts written and
not entered on the register amounting
to a great number of pages, and I
come in and ask to pay my taxes and
have a long list of land. I wait for
you to make out the receipts, but
there Is a large number and getting
tried I say I will go down town and
come back. Mr. Taylor, or someone
adds up those figures and sets down
the correct total. Mr. Davis comes
back to the office and puts down the
figures that have been footed up in
pencil, but when he goes to make up
the cash there is not that amount on
hand. Why? Because the man for
whom the receipt was written did not
come back that day. But the next
day for Instance, the party for whom
the receipt was written comes back
and does pay it In the meantime
several like occurrences have hap
pened and It Is necessary to change
this amount on the register to corres
pond with the amount thnt was re
ceived. Phelps Closes Arguments.
Shortly before 4 o'clock yesterday
the district attorney took tho floor
for his closing address, which was In
part ns follows:
"Gentlemen of the Jury, wore It not
for the very unusual arguments and
I might say very unusual defense that
they have made, I would submit the
ense to you without any further argu
ment on the part of tho state, but In
view of the statements thnt have been
made In one theory of tho defense,. I
deem thnt It is necessary for me to
take up the argument of this case
and go to some extent Into tho de
tails. "I realize the fact, gentlemen, that
you hnve been detained hero n long
time. You have been asked to exam
ine a great number of figures, and I
say to you, nnd I suppose that you

agree with me, that there Is no nec
essity of going over all these amounts
again. The defendant, himself, got
upon the witness stand and admitted
every Item that we have undertaken
to prove.
"In the beginning they were going
to prove that there never was any
shortage In the sheriffs office of
Umatilla county. A few days la -they
said there was a shortag' -'J'
that, somebody else got it. ' ut
Raley got up here and s' ,f Mr;
prove these things to tx sf. w,1i

I don't want to put. ; 'Raley out
of business but
citizen has the privi
lege or crhsln(f h(B mn(J Colone,
Katey w , change nlg mnd-..
A'.er a lengthy discussion upon
'r.A of the receipts and reports, Mr.
pnelps continued, "They got Mr. Bu-
cnanan upon the stand and Colonel
Raley began to fire questions at him
and Mr. Buchanan was ready and
willing to answer, and from the time
that that witness has been upon the
stand they have been afraid of him.
They have been afraid to point their
finger at him for fear of an electric
shock.
"Why, gentlemen, I wof'ld have
" bava fo"nl that there
was a mistake Irl that report, I an't
want to convict a irian When he Is not
guilty. Does the Jury think that I
am trying to defraud Till Taylor out
of any money? I tell you it would
have been the happiest day of my life
If It could have been demonstrated
that no money was taken out of this
office. Gentlemen of the Jury, It was
rumored last July that there was a
shortage In the sheriffs office and
what should I do? Deny It or In
vestigate It? Investigation brought
out the fact that there was a short
age. "I want to say, gentlemen of the
Jury, that I have allowed a lot of
stuff to be brought In here that should
never been allowed here. When they
say that we are trying to clear Till
Taylor or Mr. Funk or Mr. Blakley,
or any other man at the expense of
this defendant, they are telling some
thing that they know nothing about
I tell you. In the eyes of the law, that
no person should be above another.
And I tell you while I am district at
torney of this office that they will all
look alike. I will give to this man
who hasn't a friend on earth the sama
consideration that I would give to the
first In the land.
"I am sorry that I stand here to
prosecute this defendant. I have
never had anything but the most
kindly relations with him. I am sorry
but, gentlemen of the Jury, we must
not allow sympathy or prejudice to
enter Into this case. Gentlemen of
the Jury, we are, for the time being,
occupying the same positions and they
Just ns well say that you are trying to
send this man to the penitentiary as
to sny that I am trying to do It.
"If the evidence says, In this case,
that this man Is Innocent why, In
God's name, acquit him.
"After this rumor came up In this
office, what did they do? They sent
for some expert to come In and expert
the books, and you will- remember,
gentleman of the Jury, that they have
no Interest contingent upon the re
sult In this case. They were paid
their money and went on their way
rejoicing, and Mr. Buchanan was
summoned back here by myself to
testify as a witness upon this trial.
"Now Mr. Taylor had turned over
everything in his office to C. P. Da
vis; his books, his money mil more
important than anything else, gentle
men, his absolute confidence."
Here followed a lengthy discussion
of some of the testimony and of the
receipts and records.
In conclusion he said: "I have done
nil thnt Is In my power to do. I have
brought before you all the evidence
and after I have done thnt, my duty
Is ended, and your duty commences,
gentlemen."
Charge by the Judge.
It was after 5:30 when Mr. Phelps
finished nnd Judge Ellis began nt
onco upon the charge to the Jury.
When he had finished tho bailiffs
were sworn nnd "the case turned over
