Or. Jnn. 25. (Editor of lfcuit Oregnnlnn) "I have read yosr article headed "Farmers aventre murder with speedy Justice," that appeared In your valuable paper Tie. 31, 1909, which (fives an acrount of the killing of Arthur Orcene by OIHs Fnydor, and the cowardly "lynch In w" f tho latter. The three persons Chas. Beymer, Artksr fircone and Ollie Pnydor wheai I have known for years, cnused ths Kid trauefly. In which Justice was Ignored and "Judfre Lynch" relpned supreme. It Is. Indeed, a very sad nffnlr, whr we, the American people, who are considered hy nil other nations as the most intelligent and progres sive InhaMtants of the world, allow such cruel, barbarous anil unjust lynthlnir to be carried on In our prrent and prnnd state of Oregon. And the time has come when such unjust and uncivilized action of mob violence should not be tolerated under any circumstances. The people of the stat of Orofron, or, rather, those of Grant county, the pines of the recent tragedy, should do their level best to brine; the enl prlts to Justice, so that Just punish ment could he mcoted out for their nelsons crime. According to my Intuition, there was no murder committed until Ol'le Pnyder was taken from the Deputy Sheriff by six men, and shot to death whllo he was absolutely helpless and wit It his handcuffs on. Snyder was a young man of 30 years. Industrious, sober, straight forward and peace-loving, who herded sheep off and on for several years, and was, during summer time, em ployed In the haryest field In Morrow county for the last six years. Being of a timid disposition Sny der was affable and good-natured, while Greene was quarrelsome and-ob-slreperous, especially when under the Influence of "booze," which he liVed "extremely well," nnd he had trained considerable notoriety as a "booiter" and fighter. Chns. Beymor's Idiosyn crasy Is being hlentlcal with that of A. Greene when living. Beymer was running a saloon at 1oxlngton, Ore., for some time, and at. the time of the sad trng-ody. he was engaged In the sheep business at Hamilton. From the coroner's vnrdict and from my familiarity with the dispo sitions of these mon, I tx-llevo the following facis: Tloturnlng froni town with a. demi john of whiskey, Beymer nnd Greene, both "full of booze" nrrlved at tho sheep ramp where Ollle Pnyder was employed ns herder. P,clng drunk, they abused Snyder by nlweene and profane language, threats, and also intimated Hint they would kill Snydur's dog. A sheep dog Is Indispi nsnble to a herder, and it Is pi rfeclly natural that Snyder, when lleynior and Greene threatened to kill hjs iI.ir. should object to the unreasonable and unjustified killing of the dog.

Being very much Insulted at the rough, unjust and barharous treat ment that Snyder was subjected to by Greeny nnd Beymer, Snyder told Greene that ho would leave the camp, whereupon Greene, armed with a knife, ran the herder from one cor ner of the house to the other, slash ing the knife furiously at f-'nyder, cut ting the latter's clothes nnd watch chain. Finally, the herder picked up a gun that was hanging on the wall, and shot his brutal opponent. Snyder, In order to save his own life at that time, had to kill Greene In self defense, or he would have ! h been brutally slaughtered by Gr"T.c. Greene died almost Instantly, and was found with a, death-like grip on tho knife In his hand. The facts show that Snyder gave himself up ns soon ns he deemed il safe to do so that be would be pro tected from mob violence. Snyder did not receive iny protrc tlon from Deputy Sheriff Passldy. ! though he was Justly entitled to it. I I nave no prejudice against inese persons; they are neither friends nor enemies of mine. Greene worked for me last season, breaking lir.rsr s. lie was a good hand in that vocation. If It bad not been for his ndr.ptnhillty to "boozing" and fighting, he would have made an ex pt rt In breaking and handling horses. Whiskey, brought to the crimp by Beymer rnd Greene, was the primary muse of this unjust killing ,.n nm these mnh violences to no toknitefi to stain and mw the col-j lectlve moral character of our grand state. So long as these criminals lire not convicted wild brought to Justice, Just so long will such depravities con tinue to exist. , Now, fellow citizens, the time hafc come, when these ntroclous deeds of violence, ignoring all law, must hf stopped. Through these five or six persons, who are guiVy of such heinous out rage, our rountry is morally suffer ing, so much so, that It can hardly bt. culled a civilized country. Our country, with lu system of ju diciary and criminal courts, is well able to handle Die criminal document anfl there Is not the .east cause for the existence of such mob violer.ee. l,et the "wild and wooly West" pi down in the annals r.f history as a bicrbnric relic of the fmst. and 1.1 Justice, law and order prevail.

A s'rnilar act of depravity was com mitted ubout 20 years ago (fellow reader pardon me If the time of this occurrence is not correct, ns I do not now exactly remember when it oc curred) near Adams. I happened to be at Pendleton at t'nt time when tho pr'sner. charged with stealing a horse from John Ad ams, was in custody of tho deputy sheriff, although Mr. Adams had not sworn to the complaint, neither had he had a horse stolin from h'm. After tho prisoner's urrest, he was handcuffed to tho horn of the sad dle nnd in this torturing manner the deputy sheriff held his prisoner on Main street, Pendleton, until dark. The retaining of tho prisoner at Pendleton until darkness was for the express purpose to take h'm under the cover of darkness to Adams, and thus allow'ng Judge Lynch to carry I on his unlawful and unjustified act. I By the time they reached Adams a j few men, who had a personal grudge against this prisoner, took their In nocent victim and hanged him to a scaffold that had been previously bu'lt for that purpose. I passed by the road next morning and the scaffold was still there at that time, but the body had been re moved. No arrests were made, though near ly everybody in that locality knew tho particulars of the case, and the men who carried out this unlawful act were known. It Is a well known fact to those who wa tclie j the v'gilant committee that these lawbreakers were boozers, and that these dispensers of "lynch law" gone' from bad to worse. I was born in Oregon and natural ly love my native state. It recalls to my m nil the sei nes of my boyhood days, which are dear to my heart; It reminds me of the sweet and sacred memories of my parents. sisters, brothers and relatives.

Tile attractive literature sent out during the past year and the wide publicity given all rarts of Oregon have been fruitful of results and In quiry about this state was never so general as at the present time. Be cause of this widespread Interest In Oregon, it may be expected that the state will receive a large immigration during the coming spring. Oregon people should do all they can to add to this movement to the Pacific northwest by arousing inter est among their friends in other parts of the country who re looking for new homes and information should be supplied them on the opportunities here for newcomers nnd particularly thost. who desire to engage In agri culture, horticulture, stockraising or dairying. These lines of endeavor are rewarding those who are engaged in them. COM WEATHER WAS IIENI'ITC'IAI. TO iliOPS Portland.
