(adv) The abolition ot the death pen alty was written Into the bill of rights by the people of Oregon at th .lantion of November 3, 1914, and cannot be taken therefrom, ac cording to attorneys for Elvie D. Klrby condemned slayer ot Sheritf Til Taylor, who Friday filed their brief In their appeal of Kirby's case before the supreme court. Klrby, who was to have paid the supreme penalty on December 3 last, was reprieved until February 3 by Governor Olcott when his at inmaii filpl an anneal with the supreme court attacking, the con stitutionality of the act restoring capital punishment. Once injected Into the Dili oi rights a provision cannot under any circumstances be subtracted thnmrmm. according to the con tention of Kirby's attorneys. Even an attempt by the majority to hono-o the fundamental law in violation of the self-imposed re strictions is unconstitutional, tne appellant's brief holds. Th brief also maintains that the legislature exceeded Us grant of power when it proposed Joint resolution No. 8 as an amendment and referred it to the plebiscite, In that the "amendment" was not an amendment at all but an en tirely new act, repealing the then existing slatuto and creating new statute In Us place. "Reason and the trend ot civil isation In its treatment of crime shows that capital punishment is not proper remedy to cur homi cide," the brief declares. It 1 expected that the appeal will be et for argument befor the supreme court at an early date. . Seven Water Permits Asked Melvin H.
