Completely out from under tho subtle
Influence of John Do Soto, alleged white
slaver, Cora Furmer, liln victim, has
made a comploto statement to District
Attorney Mulkoy and It Is believed that
a conviction will follow his trial on a
charge of unlawful solicitation which Is
called for next Monday In tho circuit
court. Tho talo told by tho young wo
man Is pitiful In tho pxtri'ino and Is
complete, tracing her relations with her
"master" who, according to the officeis,
held her In as abject slavery as any
that existed In the early days of the
republic when blacks yero bought and
sold us cuttle. She states thut she Is
reudy, yes, eager, to go on tho stund
u nil tell the story of her life since she
met De Soto some two years ago.
In her story told District Attorney
Mulkey the girl status thut on differ

Is sustained, will bind tin) man over
to tho federal court for hearing. How
ever tho circuit court will first try him
on a charge of soliciting for the woman.
Do Soto, who Is u CI reek. Is charged
with having taken the woman to Fugle
Point and held her Micro for somo weeks
while he solicited for her among the
Greeks who were at that time working
on the extension of the Pacific & Hast
orn to Butte Falls. Ho learned that tilt
officers wero on his trail so he and the
woman fled to Grants Pass. Arrested
there on a charge of unlawful cohubltu
lion they exhibited a murrlugo license
of tho woman to a man nanied Kurmer
and declared Do Soto's name wns Far
mer. The case being dismissed there the
case was brought to Medforil whero tho
ohurge of solicitation was lodged against
the Ureok. An indictment wus loturued
against Do Soto, or Farmer, as he
claimed to be by, tho tho grand Jury on
March 25. Tho woman who was veiy 111,

ACCIDENT CAUSE
OF HftRP'B DEftTH
Denounces Lumhcr Trust and His
Other Enemies in His Closing Ad
dress to Jury Says State Intro
duced Blackmail Evidence
HAYWAUD, Wis.. May 12. Declara
tion that ho honestly believed Oscar
Harp, tho deputy sheriff for whose mur
der he, his wife und his son Leslie, nre
on trlul here, wus killed accidentally,
was made today by John F. Diet, "de
fender of Cameron dam," In an address
to the Jury after District Attorney Wil
liams had closed for tho prosecution.
Wi. Hams' speech was a careful re
view of tho cuso for the state. Diets
followed, denouncing the lumber trust
und his other enemies, und declaring
It was his duty to defend his futility
ugalnst all attacks.
"I honestly believe," said IDotz, "that
flarp was nccldantiilly killed. No depu
ty among those present at 'the battle
admitted the killing, but not one de
clared that they had not fired In tho di
rection where Harp was concealed."
DleU charges that most of tho wit
nesses for the state wero perjurers. He
then suddonly veered to his request for
a change of venue. Dletz charged that
everyone connected with the state's case
had lied to him. ltulslng his voice, he
sheuted:
"Wo had no opportunity to resist the
officers of tho law. Tho stato bus In
troduced a lot of blackmail evidence but
you have seen thut I havo not been per
mitted to refuto It."
During Dletz' address Judgn Hold wus
frequently compulled to wurn him to
conflno himself to tho evidence.
"There has never been any reuson for
anyone to como to our home," said Diets
to the Jurymen, "and crnwl In like u
snake during the six and n half years'
wurfuro with tho lumber company The
state has not produced a single curt ridge
which wus round In the libit, guns after
wo surrendered. Why? lleoause there
wus not u single curtrldge corresponding
to tho bullet which killed Harp.
"In our case the law never made
known Its wants except by the bullet
routo. Tho officials never tried to serve
warrants. They served bullets Instead.
Do you know why? It wus because Saw
yer county, Wisconsin, Is body und soul
in tho grip of the fiendish lumber trust.
Another cause of tho trouble has been
the putrid press.
"If there Is any evhlenco to connect
m e wtlh the murder of Harp I want
to pay tin1 penalty. I ask no favors from
the Jury and I don't want any I want
only Justice
"If I had klled Ilurp, I would have
como beforothe court like a man and
admitted 'It I would have claimed thu:
I had a light to kill him In defending
my fumlly and my home against Invas
ion. It Is the God's tlllth thut we 1m
Ileved that futal buttle was simply an
other Invuslon In the lumber company's
guerrilla wur"
