The Stockman Case.
The supreme court Monday handed
down Its decision In the case of the
state against John R. Stookman, who
was convicted upou trial In Marlon
county, of violating section 4, of the
aotoflS85, commonly known as the
warehouse act, by shipping wheat
stored In a warehouse, of which ho
was manager, without the Written con
sent of the holder of the receipt there
for. The evidence showed that at the
time of the commission of the alleged
crime, the defendant was manager of
the Red Crown Roller Mills, of
Albany, a corporation engaged in the
business of manufacturing flour and
other products for sale. A part of the
mill building was used for the storage
of wheat belonging to the company,
and such as it might receive from the
neighboring farmers. The wheat so
stored was all mixed In oue mass, from
which the company drew from day to
day for Its own use. Iu September,
18D4, E. D. Barrett delivered to the
company 2198.25 bushels of. wheat,
taking a receipt therefor. The wheat
was mixed with other wheat, manu
factured Into flour and sold by the
company for its own use and benefit.
The company failed, aud, iu March,
1896, Barrett demanded the market
value of the wheat, which, being re
fused, he teudered the storage and de
manded the return of the wh .at,
In order to sustain acriminal charge,
the supreme court says It was incum
bent upou the state to prove that the
grain was placed in a warehouse and,
in addition thereto, to prove that it
was placed there on storage. From
the evidence, the higher court finds
the mill company did not receive
grain for storage or safekeeping, but,
as was known by Barrett, received the
Wheat, manufactured it into flour and
sold the flour. Its obligations to de
positors were satisfied by paying the
market price or returning wheat of
like quality or quantity. There was
au implied contract, says the court,
that the wheat deposited by Barrett
should be so disposed of, and that the
state law In question Is plainly Intend
ed to apply to warehousemen only,
and its piincipal object is to make
warehouse receipts negotiable, secur
ing the depositor by making the bailee
liable to criminal prosecution.
It Is therefore held that the case
should have been submitted to the jury
with a direction that they could not
couylct uulees satisfied from the
evidence that the place where the
grain was deposited was in fact a
warehouse for the storage of grain, and
that the grain in question was receiv
ed ou storage aud not on agreement,
express or implied, that the mill
company might use it in the course of
Its business. For the reasou these
questions were not so submitted, the
case is reversed and a new trial
ordered.
A. O. U. W. Entertainment.
The entertainment given by the A.
O. IT. W. aud Degree of Honor iu this
city last night, was a success m every
respect. The A. O. U. W. "Shake 'Em
Up" quartette, of Albany, consisting
ofD.V. Poling, M.S. Aokers, S. N.
Steel and A. M. Luudell, rendered
some choice music. This certainly Is
the finest quartette that has ever
visited Lebanon.
The orchestra, consisting of W. W.
Crawford, Geo. McKuiglit and wife
and Frank McKnight, entertained
the people with some spleudid music.
It is seldom the people of Lebanon
have the pleasure of listening to such
music, either vocal or instrumental.

next Saturday night Is, "Resolved,
that Intoxicating Liquor is a Greater
Curse lhau War." The publio are
cordially invited to atteud these meet
lug". I see in the last week's issue of the
Express that Caesar takes his peu
and with oue fell swoop completely
annihilates me, (lu his mind), Come
again Cae ar, for as my name Indi
cates, I am with you. Now, Mr.
Caesar, you say In your communica
tion last week, "tonight, as usual, ruin
fastens its mighty arms around this
little neighborhood of scrambling
soles." What do you mean by
spelling souls, "s-o-l-e-s?" Do you
want to give out the impression that
the people of this 'community have no I
souls except such as are put on from!
time to time by the shoemaker? Some
of the people here have feelings if they
have no souls; aud if, as you say, you
do not want to mar thelrfeelings you
should be careful. Theu you say, "we
bad one of the grandest little times,"
aud all of us supposed we had a big
time. You also say, "the choir sang
Sweet Oregon and were called back."
They ought to have been called punk.
Then there is an error in your basket
statistics. Instead of the receipts .be
ing $8.76, tbey were $8.25. Now, Mr.
Caesar, you say in one breath that one
would think from my looks that I
would be a fit subject for a museum,
and In the next that I Lave taken a
cowardly advantage because I know
you and you do not know me. Very
contradictory, is it not, CaeBar? Now,
Mr. Caesar, as to your little kick on
my "blowing my lotten republican
slang up against the untarnished
principles of true Bryan democracy"
as represented by yourself au3 your
distinguished accomplice from New
York, D. B. Hill; I have nothing to
Bay only this is the off year for such
democrats. You say you are not a
poet. 1 with many others am glad of
this, for if your poetry should prove as
rotten as your prose it would be bad
Indeed. Once more Caesar, I would
warn you that many years hence the
manager ot some museum into whose
handB the fossil remains of yourself or
D. B. Hill have fallen, will point you
out to bis gapiug audience and tell
them that these were in times long
ago Democrats of the long and short
species, who, like the buffalos, roamed
the plains in great herds, but are now
extinct. This is a sad picture to con.
template and I hope you may. be
warned ill time, And theu if I must
scour my brain pan for quotations, I
will not have to carry my brain
around iu acocoauut as you do now.
Stayer,
Last Tuesday night as Mr. D.
Andrews was going borne frem his
store, bis attention was attracted by a
noise iu the alley. Looking arouud,
he was surprised to see a mau stand
ing near him with a big club lu his
hands. Mr. Andrews turned his
lantern ou the man and demanded
what he wanted, at which time the
man dropped the club and ran. Mr,
Andrews thiuks it wrs au attempt to
hold him up, but the lantern flustrated
the man. This was the first time that
Mr. Andrews bad carried a light with
him. Twice before wire had been
been stretched across the walk at this
point, as it is very dark there. Other
attempts have been made lately to
hold people up. Our citizens should
be on their guard.
