IS THE PEEPING TOM KNOWN?
There Is a story being c'rruiated
to the effect that the Peeping Torn
the Individual which has occasioned
Hermiston a good deal Of trouble
during tbe past few months, has
been caught, but owing to his prom­
inence ari3 standing in the com­
munity, those who know his identity
refuse to divulge It.
This story has been repeated to
such an extent during the past week
It would lead one to believe there is
something back of it. When one
hears the story the wordH “promi­
nent man" Is repeated. He may be
prom'nent but most certainly he can
lay no claim to being a man.
There are hundreds of men In our
penitentiaries today who have more
respect for themselves than to sneak
around houses after dark, peeping
Into bedroom windows and accosting
unprotected women when the men
folks are away from home. It
would be a shame to send a man ol
thin stripe to associate even with
criminals. Hln presence would be
repugnant to them. There is honor
among thieves and oth»r classes of
men whose deeds make them a men.
ace to society, but a man like th’r
has no honor, nothing but a dis­
eased mind, and is a detestlble enemy
of the community in which he llveB.
The person, or persons, who would
protect such a moral degenerate 1»
not one whit better. If it be true
that this man is prominent in the af.
fairs of the community, this alone
shoud be sufficient for h’s name tr

men have placed In him a confident
that has been unwarranted and of
which he Is not deserving. He Is
I’vlng under false colorR and should
be branded as a traitor by not be­
ing that which he seems.
A man’s prominence in the com
muntty should in no way hinder him
from being responsible for erm es
that he may committ. They should
never grow that big. The old Idea
that a king can do no wrong may
be all right In order to simplify thr
affairs of government, but when it
comes to individuals of a totality It.

dividual persists in insulting woman­
hood.

Decision not to raise the embargr
on fruits and vegetables from the dis
trlcts of California not infected by tbi
foot and mouth disease was reached
by the Oregon State Livestock board
The recommendation was sent to Gov­
ernor Pierce.
In preparation for the actual work
of boring 3665-foot tunnel under the
summit of the Cascade mountains on
the Natron cut-off line, steam shovels
have clearod away loose dirt for the
tunnel approach at each end of the
proposed work.
Convicts who escape from the Ore­
gon atate penitentiary in the future
will be assigned to the prison "bull
pen” for six months, will be depriv­
ed of all privileges and will be dress­
ed in red and black striped suits, it
was announced here by Warden
Dalrymnie.
An attempt to escape from the Ore­
gon state prison was frustrated when
J. W. Lilly, deputy warden, sent 14
men to solitary confinement. The
men planned to escape through a 40-
foot underground passageway leading
from the center of a woodpile to a
point outside the prison wall. Those
implicated were declared among the
most dangerous criminals in the prison
and Included five who made the dar­
ing escape over the wall several
months ago. The plot to gain free­
dom was conceived several weeks ago,
and had it been successful between 20
and 30 men would have left the prison,
■ Deputy Lilly declared. The plan was
BI to gain the outside of the wall under
