SUPREME BENCH
scholarly man, Interested In the
sciences, and Is a writer of abil
ity. Ho is a born leader of men
and bus always been enthusiastic
In the cause of Irish Independence.
He la hot 'remarkable for his
physical strength, and I consider
hi long hunger strike as a
triumph of the spirit.
"Understand mo, MacSwIney
does not want to die. This Is
not attempted suicide on his part,
but unwillingness to admit, by re
ceiving the punishment of the
Ilrltlsh, their right to rule Ire
land. He I serving a two year
term for swearing allegiance' to
the Irish republic."
Father Harrington Is a mem
ber of the Hinn Fein, which he
explains has as its object the re
viving of Irish national life,
through passive resistance to the
rule of the empire. "The trouble
In K Ireland Is not religious," he
said, "for many of our strongest
members are Protestants. More
over, the Sinn Fein is determined
ly opposed to the bolshevlst move
ment, although continued efforts
are being made to spread a con
trary belief."

AT HEARING

KILLER, STATED
IDENTITY WITHHELD
Weston Said To Have Given Details
of Hermit's Death, In Presence of .
Two Faith of His Wife and
Daughter Remain; Unshaken.
Reasons underlying the arrest ot
A. J. Weston, charged with the mur
der of Robert H. Krug, hermit ranch
er of Sisters, in March, 1919, were
disclosed last night when Sheriff S.
E. Roberts and H. H. De Armond,
who, with R. S. Hamilton, is acting
as a special prosecutor in the case,
stated that they have two witnesses
who will testify that Weston boasted
to them of torturing Krug In a vain
endeavor to make him disclose the
hiding place of his money, and of fi
nally killing the aged man and firing
the building. Krug's body was found
on the morning after the crime is
alleged to have been committed,
charred almost beyond recognition.
The authorities are unwilling at
present to disclose the identity of the
two star witnesses. One of them. It
is known, is now in Portland, and
has received instructions to report
here Tuesday for the preliminary
hearing. In support of his testi
mony, It is Intimated, a mass of cir
cumstantial evidence has been gath
ered. Wife Firm In Faith
Called from Portland where she
was visiting at the time of t'.'.e ar
rest, Mrs. Weston arrived here last
night to consult with her husband
in regard to the details of the trial.
She declared that he could not pos
sibly be guilty of the crime charged.
and stated that she would spend
every dollar they possess in fighting
against a conviction.
In a statement given out this
morning relative to the case, Mrs.
A. J. Moore, wife of the district at
torney, expressed her firm belief In
her father's Innocence. "I regret
sincerely that it is necessary for
my husband to prosecute my - own
father for the crime alleged," Mrs.
Moore said, but I realize that it la
the only honorable course for him
to pursue in .his official capacity as
district attorney. I do not feel that
I have the right to ask him to shirk
his duty."
Weston was interviewed late yes
terday afternoon, but refused to
make any statement other than that
ha would fight the charge. "I will
make a straight defense," he said,
and a moment later denied emphatic
ally a report, which had gained soma
credence to the efefct that he might
seek to prove "self-defense. "I am
unwilling to give any further Infor
mation concerning my plans until I
have secured an attorney," he added,
As he talked the prisoner paced
nervously back and forth in his cell.
After his morning's session with th
barber ho appeared 10 years young
er than at the time ot his arraign
ment in justice court, a few hours
Weston has been a resident of Des
chutes county for a number of years
and is known throughout the Sisters
and Squaw creek country for his tre
mendous strength and his absolute
fearlessness. He is 6 feet 5 inches
in height and weighs 225 pounds.
News ot the arrest recalled the
story of a gun fight In which Weston
is said to have participated In the
early days in Madras, in which, after
ha was riddled with bullets, he closed
with his assailant and overpowered
him.
