Lloyd Montgomery Pro and Con In Monday's Oreinminn unnihai, in torvicw With Llovd Montiromerv an. peared. Montgomery Insisted stronger wan ever mat he only killed Mc Kercber. and declares that lie io(u the confession of killing all because not in his right mind, and because he thought It would save his life. During the interview he said: "I'll not be punished for killing Mc Kercher after lie shot my parents an 3 tried to kill me, too. My shot that Another Pioneer Gone. Mrs. Isaac D. Kees died at her rcsl denco, In the suburb f T,..i,n., Saturday morning, the 4th Inst, Her um.ucn name was Catharine R. Wll son.

The Oregonian savs: "Tlio Pn boys, who are in the Albany jail for ourglar us n? a store at. Crnvufonlnvllla are old neighbors of Montgomery. They think that lie is innocent, and say that his storv. since he seemed t runy realize bis position, has been ex. aotiy tne same. The Fn hnva nv too, that they know of a difficulty that tne oiaer Montgomery once had with McKcrcher at a school meeting, mid that they believe the shooting grew out or this. "There is undoubtedly a ohanowd feeling at Albany and In the country aqjacent to the scene of t ie tmaeriv The boy now has manv svnmathismrn His story about McKercher killing his parents is generally discredited hut mere are agood many who are iuclined to oeneve it. "Montgomervhas manv avmna. thizers because of his being deserted oy everyone in his hour of need, and it is generally believed that his execn tion could be postponed if any effort were made In this direction." The Albany Herald expresses its uenei in Montgomery's guilt and con demns the usual "tender ol!nihid r, a condemned murderer." Tho Herald says: "This sympathy for criminals is nothing new. It existed In the world when Pope wrote the familiar lines: Vice is a monster of such hideous mien That to be haled need but to be seen ; But seen too oft, familiar with its fuce, We first endure, then pity, then embrace. "It is the same sentiment wbleh prompts weak minded women tnnlimy. er flowers and attentions upon such murderers as Durrant. but we are ir. prised to see a great newsnaner like tho Oregonian devote its columns to the puoiicatlon of such flippant nonsense. Such tender solicitude for a condemned murderer, extended into a two-mlmnn plea in bis behalf, is altonether out. nf place. 'Repeated excuses for nrlmo nd outrages upon justice is what lend., in Jyncbing8, mob law and disorder. If tbere is any new evidence tending it. establish the innocence of the con demned man, let it be produced by all means and let him have the full bene fit of it, but If uot, mere sympathy for uie muraerer should be overshadowed by the fact that the neace and fi)i fW ti of the community demand that the laws ie executed. "H.id McKercher reallv killed Mr and Mrs, Monlgomerv and hurt their son then killed him. it would rti., ly have been a righteous act, and he wouia not nave hesitated to tell just how it happened at first, instead of inventing so many different stories. Mr. jn. jw. .Newport, one of Mont. gomery'e attorneys, stated to a Herald reporter that iu all probability the execution would uot luke nlane on the date fixed by Judge Burnett, as they uau asaeo tor iurtuer time to prepare a bill of exceptions on which to ap peal the case to the supreme court. If this is grunted, he thought a stnv of execution would he granted until the appeal can ue Heard."
