Frank by Georgia mob was the foul- est of crimes against American law, justice and civilization. It would have been a despicably criminal act had there been no ques tion of the victim's guilt It was dou bly so when his innocence was almost conclusive except to the minds of his Georgia persecutors. Few dispassionate readers of the comprehensive reviews of the Frank case presented by William 3. Burns, detective, and C. P. Connolly, lawyer and writer, could remain unconvinced the cultured Jew's innocence and the blaek guilt of his accuser a brutal and degraded negro. Hounded by the Atlanta police, be trayed by the Georgia courts, unpro tected by his jailers, murdered by s cowardly mob, the fats of Leo M. Frank would nevertheless be prefera ble to that of his lawless assassins when they stand before the final Bar of Judgment.

If the allies are conspiring to depress the price of American wheat, we have a right to hope that their machinations may continue. ' With Umatilla county wheat at around SO cents per bushel. their schemes are surely not particu larly malevolent. Growers wanting more would likewise wsnt an entire flock of automobiles. Nevertheless, the views of Market Editor Cohen of' the Oregon Journal are interesting. . Here is what be ssys in Sunday's paper: " JsasWsssWsWPfsl It begins to look as if European nations are trying to make good their threats to purchase wheat in thla country at their own price. Divers methods of accomplishing this end have been utilized, but success of the movement ha been by no means marked to date. First of all plans to beat down the price of wheat In this country was the report sent broadcast that the Euro pean crops were going to break all records this season. This having proven false and the price of wheat j naturally stimulated thereby. It be- hooved the press agents of the Euro pean nations to try some other tack. The probable opening of the Dar danelles was one rumor that the Eng lish government sent, afloat as a means of depressing American grain prices. Then it was cabled that the Italian government had decided to cut out speculation In. the wheat market This, too, had an effect up on the price. Those Independent of the market can see but one thing la the bearish raid on wheat prices this week that through the house of J. P. Morgan at Co. the European Interests propose to bully the American wheat growers Into selling. By tying up with such a strong international house, it was likely figured that the' financial In fluence would be aufficient to tie up funda so that farmers would tie forced to selL , ., i .
