An examining physician for one of

NIGHTRIDING CASES DISMISSED
iContlnoed rrom Page One)
bad seen tho defendants and tbe two
main witnesses for the state drive
through Medlord. on the late after
noon of April 9tb, 1922, cn route to
Ashland. Fleming denied that he
bad l-en told of any chicken stealing
by Perry Wynkoop of Medford.
Norrls look the stand in his own
behalf at the morning session, and
corroborated In the main dutalls of
the testimony of his son-in-law,
Goodie, regarding the trip and the
hoM up. Norrls testified that he bad
been searched, and a gun drawn on
lilm. but on cross examination said
he had not been questioned by the
gang regarding chicken stealing.
During the state's examination of
Norrls, the comedy element crept
into tbe proceedings, tbo defcnuo ob-
Jccting to tbe line of questTonlng.
"Tho witness is able to bandlo
himself.'" said the assistant atorney
general.
"And I can handlo you." retorted
Attorney Wlnslow for tho defense.
"Anil tho court can handle the
both of you," Interposed tho court.
Hcotcxl Kvchangeti Flow
Turing tho examination of NoitIb
and Fleming, several heated Inter
changes flared up between tho op
posing counsels, all quickly quieted
ly the court. The contentions were
the result nf queries bearing upon
tbe Ku Klux Klan.
Tho defense called County Judge
(eorgo A. Gardner and Former
County Judge Frank L. Tou Velle as
witnesses, "at thoir own request," it
was announced by tho defense. The
two well known citizens, with Bert
L. Moses, county Janitor, were ac
cused from Ihe witness stand Wed
nesday, by Hank Johnson with being
members of tho gang that "took him
out.' The chargo was emphatically
denied.
Hoy Smith of Jacksonville was
called as a witness lo testify anent a
conversation he had with Johnson
"shortly after tho episodo," in which
chicken Btoalinq was tho subject.
"Johnson told mo," said Smith,
"thai ho had been accused of stealing
chickens, as asked mo what he
houlrt do. I told hltn If hn had
stolen tbe chickens there was nothing
ho could do. and ho said: "I stole the
chickens all right, but I dlun t get
as many as they said I did "
Axel Lundgreu was colled as a
character witness for Norrls and
Gooillo and left the witness stand re
luctantly with tho remark: "I haven't
told all I want to."
County Clerk Florev and Countv
Judge Gardner were also called, and
aid tho reputation of Norrls for be
ing a peaceful and law abidlug citl-
cn was good.

said. "Hank's story about me being
a member of his 'taking out party
is a gross exaggeration like Mark
Twain's death."
County Judge Gardner, also named
by Johnson as a member of the party
characterized the testimony as "pre
posterous, and a lie without founda
tion of fact.''
The county Judge said he contem
plated filing a perjury charge against
Johnson. lleVt L. Moses also named
by Johnson, classified his charge in
emphatic fashion, as "a lie."
bbnnfeKat Denied.
The motion of the defense for the
dismissal of the case, and a directed
verdict by the court, was overruled
by the court, without presentation of
argument by the state.
Attorney Winslow argiied that there
was an insufficiency of evidence, that
the indictments were Invalidated,
owing to the fact that the grand Jury
had listed John Doe's as members of
the party, when they had testimony
before them to connect other persons
with the crime, to-wit. County Judge
Gardner. Judge F. 1 Tou Velle and
Ilert L- Mosas, county Janitor, and
there had been no evidence lo show
that the defendants Norris and
Goodie were implicated, or had U3ed
any weapons during the affair.
Tom Goodie Testifies.
Thomas E. Goodie, defendant with
his father-in-law. J. Alexander Nor
ris. charged with riot in tho second
of the Jackson county nightriding
trials, was the first witness called by
the defense, at the Wednesday after
noon session of the circuit court, and
he told his story of the "hold-up" of
the night of April th. 1922. in which
Hank Johnson was "uplifted."
Goodie's story did not vary in es
sential points from that of Johnson,
the victim, and York, the "lectured."
except that the1 boys testified they
naw a Ford Sedah. ulongside the road
during the affuir. and Goodie was
positive it was a Ford roadster.
Goodie testified -he picked "York up
on the main etreet of Jacksonville
and York snid he had been called'
from a Sunday afternoon ball game
to make the trip.
Suspicions of Sludcbaker.
Inscribing tho hold up. Goodie tes
tified that he was suspicious of the
Sludcbaker Six. that was following
their truck, and that he su5pocted a J
upeed cop was after him for run-)
ning without lights. His version of
the trip and return from Ashland did .
not vary In essentials from that of
the two main witnesses for the state.'
"The Sludcbaker went to tho forks

The state, in cross-examination,
asked Goodie: "Are you a natural

of the Ku Klux K'.an?" The defense
objected to the query, and it was sus
tained. Goodie denied that there
was any pre-arrangetrent for the
hold-up. and that be and Norris were
victims, and not principals as
charged. He said he had not been
asked about chicken stealing, but
had been Queried about moonshine,
and had been searched for a gun. by
