Give Him a Break
If there is going to be any further
leniency shown to any of those convicted
of ballot theft here about a year ago. it
should favor Gordon Schermerhorn,
helpless victim of the schemers who
have long since taken up residence in
Salem.
As The Miner stated some months ago,
ends of justice would be better served if
Schermerhorn’s three-year sentence
could be lifted from him and tacked onto
the terms of the real leaders in the con­
spiracy—and leaders of numerous other
unfortunate occurrences in this county
for years.
It is the opinion of this paper that
Gordon Schermerhorn, living a full life­
time with an honest reputation and good
standing, was not prepared to recognize
the shady deal he was being made a
party to. It is the inherently honest, but
not too observative, fellow who trusts
the wrong people.
Schermerhorn has lived a year of
quiet life undoubtedly spaying, in his
way, very dearly for the part he played
in the ballot thefts, even though he has
remained at liberty. He is not the type
of fellow who would concoct schemes to
defeat justice or county harmony. He
showed, however, he was a man who
could be led and dictated to while in
public office but, while he is behaving
himself, there is no possible advantage
to be gained from jailing an old, broken
man.
Object of the ballot theft trials was
to clear up the county mess, not to in­
dulge in legalized revenge. The ends of
peace and harmony would be just as well
served—if not better—by showing ju­
dicial leniency with Gordon Schermer­
horn and letting him continue a free
man.
f
Such an act of mercy would help both
Jackson county’s and Schermerhorn’s
self respect.

Yessir—There’s a Bif Job to Be Finished!,
News May Be Noose, But**
Because a newspaper prints a story
which may help spread the bad word
about one or more parties is no reason
to believe the news was dished out with
relish. There are times when, for a news­
paper to keep its self rsepect, it must
print happenings which are regrettable
and better left in obscurity as far as
those directly involved are concerned.
But actB of public officials are public
property, and any news concerning them
will take on political significance only
when the acts described are of political
importance. If two deputies came to
Jacksonville as individuals and threw a
“party,” that would be the concern only
of those involved, strictly speaking. But
when they become drunk and then assert
their authority as officers and leave a
distasteful aftermath that reflects on all
law and order, that incident could not
honestly be kept from a newspaper’s
readers.
Though The Miner lists everyone con- I
cerned with the incident two weeks ago ,
as personal friends, it cannot with any
consistency reach for the whitewash in­
stead of the printer’s ink after what it
said about its enemies a year ago.

An act of congress specifically

Six claims are allowed for one ln-

Water shortage has curtailed
placer and quartz mining consid­
erable this year in southern Ore­
gon Despite this fact the produc­
tion of gold has increased more
than 25 per cent, according to
shippers' records.
Production at both the Ashland
and Barron mines continues. The
Ashland is treating ore .on the
ground and shipping zinc precipi­
tates from cyanide plant. The Bar­
ron, due to lack of water for the
mill, is shipping crude ore to the
smelter.
It Is an 111 wind that blows no-
one good. So, even with excep­
tionally low water thia year, the
125 miles in length of Rogue river

is now providing employment for
upwards of 2000 men Some only
make their grub while others who
have technical knowledge of get­
ting the gold from river beds are
making money. Several diving
suits with accompanying appartus

of the river bed.
