DlSQl'E'S RECOMMENDATION'
Press dispatches indicate that Ex
aminer Disque, of the interstate com
merce commission, has recommended
that the applications of carriers for
lower rates from eastern points to
the coast than to the intermediate
points be not nllowed.
Concerning this recommendation.
Public Service Commissioner II. H
Corey says:
"All Interior points may well re
joice at this victory. The progres
sion of the theory of regulation of
railroad and public utility rates by
the regulatory bodies has been made
manifest by recent decision. The in
terstato commerce commission's de
cision in the Columbia river basin
grain rates case and the recommen
dations of Examiner Disque in these
fourth section applications demon
strates clearly that right eventually
wins. This has been a long, long
battle for the right, it having been
before the interstate commerce com
mission repeatedly since the histori
cal Spokane rate case more than a
quarter of a century ago.
"It is realized by all that prefer
ential rates have been the most es
sential element in determining the
growth of cities and influencing man
ufacturing activity throughout the
I'nited States.
"Coast terminal points have re
peatedly joined with the carriers In
adopting a policy that would be a
vital influence in the growth and pre
eminence of favored localities to the
detriment of the growth and devel
opment of interior points. All the
natural factors favoring manufactur
ing and jobbing are to be found in
the interior. Haw material from the
farm and from the mines are easily
available. Power and fuel are at
hand, and living is cheaper because
of the prevalence of farms; and man
ufacturing will now permit the rapid
increase in population in the inter
ior and cause further development of
our farm lands.
"On the human side, it is far more
desirable to have a large number of
relatively small factories and job
bing houses scattered throughout the
small cities and towns than to have
this business forever centered in the
coast cities."
The Blue Bucket mine has been
located again. This time it's on Wa
gontire mountain, according to the
Ontario Argus.
WESTOX SAYS IXXOCEXT:
VXKUKFLKD OX STAND
(Continued from Page 1.)
agreed. The stipulation contains the
further declaration that the state
does not admit that such testimony
would be the truth.
The greater part of the morning
was taken up in reading from tran
scripts of the preliminary hearing
and of the first Weston trial. Wes
ton's testimony was read from the
trial transcript State's Attorney R.
S. Hamilton, and after the state
rested at 10:16 o'clock, George Still
well's statements in the preliminary
examination and the first trial were
compared for impeachment purposes.
Excludo Siirifr Testimony
E. M. Harrington was recalled this
morning by the state, and Immedi
ately afterward, Sheriff 8. E. Rob
erts was recalled to tell the sources
of Information resulting In his in
vestigations which led to the arrest
of Weston. Continued objections to
this line of testimony were made by
the defense on the grounds that such
evidence was hearsay. The state
contended that Its purpose was to
show that the Investigation was
started before Joe Wilson was re
leased from the Multnomah county
jail, and that consequently the
charge did not result from any plot
on Wilson's part to "get" Weston, as
had been intimated by the defense in
its cross examination of Wilson yes
terday. The court ruled following
the morning Intermission in favor of
the objection, Instructing the Jury
to disregard all such testimony.
Kuyx Killing Admitted
Testifying that Weston had told
him b would establish ielf defense,
T. J. Sanders, bailiff and Jailer, was
called as tha last witness yesterday
afternoon. Sanders saw a new pri
soner in the county jail on Septem
ber 39, 1920, and asked him who he
was.
"My name is A. J. Weston, and
I'm on the wrong side of the bars,
but I'll show 'em I did It In self de
fense," Weston answered, according
to the witness.
E. H. Sparks and W. T. Wilson
agreed that Weston had visited his
ranch, leased by Wilson, ten days be
fore the tragedy, getting his gun
and dog. and telling them that Krug
was "nosing around" the moonshlu
ing plant at the sawmill, and that he
intended to keep him away and con
tinue to make whiskey if he served
a life sentence for It.
Wilson admitted when cross exam
ined that ho had nt one time brought
action against Weston to replevin
hay.. He did not know whether or
not the Btiit had ever been dismissed.
Joe Wilson, brought in his wheeled
chair to testify yesterday had known
Krug for 25 years, he stated on the
stand Wednesday afternoon. He had
last seen Krug. before the fire, when
he had, sometime during that win
ter, helped Krug to get n horse out
of the ice on the slough near the
mill. Wilson Is a patient at the
Mountain View hospital. '
Iiloutif Koinuiiis
On March 25, he visited the burned
cabin, end recognized the charred
remains as those of Krug, by the
shape of the shoulders, and by a
piece of a sweater had hud known
Krug to wear. '
In the fall of 191S. Weston came
to the Wilson mill to help Wilson
get in logs; but during the winter
they had. with little success, tried
to make moonshine. Wilson got
Stillwell to come out on March 15.
He left sometime In April.
Wilson was in Bend on the night
of March 24. he stated. He returned
the next day, and attended the in
quest. Walking home to the mill af
ter it. Weston said to him. he testi
fied, '.'Mum's the word." To which
Wilson replied, "It's all off with us
at the mill."
"It had to be done," Weston con
tinued, and Wilson replied, "Don't
tell me nothing. I don't want to
know nothing."
While he gave this testimony, Wil
son talked gaspingly, and had to
stop several times on account of his
feeble condition.
"Whenever Jack Weston tries any
thing, he generally always gets by,"
Wilson quoted the defendant as say
ing, relative to getting caught. "He
said if I told it. if he didn't get
killed, I would." Wilson added.
Itrvenfrr Motive Denied
Wilson's logging operations were
conducted on hind that Krug had
once homesteaded, but v.hlch a man
natiK-d Scott had secured on a con
test, said Wilson. Krug had owned
the p;:rt of it on which the mill stood.
for a year, and had once asked him
why he did not move the mill, hut
there had been no quarrel, said Wil
son. Wilson left when his mill was
burned in the fall of 1919, he said.
Over the objection of the state,
Wilson was required to tell of being
convicted of moonshlning, and serv-j
illET n r:tHfo in tho 1ilfiiiii.ink
county jail.
Defense asked as to whether he
had made a statement to one s. M.
Bailey In Prinevllle after his release,
declaring that Weston was respon
sible, (referring to his Imprison
ment.) continuing "I'll get even with i
him I'll get him one way or an
other." "You bet I didn't." was Wilson's
reply, emphatic in spite of his con
dition. .MrthotLs Criticized
Wilson had told Charles Gist, de
puty sheriff, that Weston was the
man who killed Krug and burned
him up, buforo he went to Jail, he
uld.
There were many things Wilson
did not tell at tho first trial, that
Weston had told him, he said.
Wilson's only remarks, on being
told of the murder, were, "I suppose
he did some begging," and "I think
you mado a mlstnko in putting him
on the bed. Why didn't you put him
on tho floor, near tho wall, so It
would look like it was an accident?"
he admitted, but explained that he
said those things only to make WVs
ton think he was still his friend.
LEGION PLANNING
MODERN RADIO SET
MiiKiuivox, Making; roNKlhlo HearliiK
of CoiiocrlH l!y All In limit,
Mt'l.clltiiul'H Plan.
Because of the ever Increasing In
terest being taken in radio telephony
and telegraphy, J. II. McLelluud, ap
pointed last night chairman of the
radio committee of Percy A. Stevens
Post, American Legion, believes that
the post can profitably Install a mod
ern set. Including a magiiavox, nt the
Legion building.
Such a set as Is contemplated
would make It possible, according to
McLelland, for everyono In Hi'itil to
go to the Legion building on surh
evenings as they could, uud hear the
concerts which are being sent out
from various points in the western
states.
In fact, with the use of the magiia
vox. It would only bo necessary for
those who wished to listen, to step
out onto their lawns, for It has been
demonstrated that by the use of u
three step amplification in connect
ion wilh the magnnvox, concerts may
be heard at a distance of a mllo from
the receiving station, McLelland
states.
NEW MUSICAL SHOW

last night that the Legion would
again sponsor the show. If a satis
factory agreement can be reached.
