When mention was made of the snoopers leaving
town, it referred wholly to Sandifer and his iran, who
were little short of holdup men. AVe need only file the
ease of one of sm well known citizens, who was a vic
tim of n fnnneup hy Sandifer.
When Dug Woljiatnott and Shine Ktlwat'ds were
mentioned it was only to call attention to an expensive
unit ineffective system of prohihition, a system that Mr.
Moore was not respotisilile for in any way.
GOODNIGHT, TAXPAYERS !
This system produced a situation where most hoot
lefiuers and liquor dealers, oil heini; apprehended, hired
a i;ootl lawyer and fouttht their eases to a finish at stag
geriuff cost to the taxpayers.
If we read the newspaper, supporters of Mr. Coddini:
arij-'ht, he will he expected to return to that system, ami,
if he does, it is pood nij;ht, taxpayers!
WHO WILL YOU VOTE WITH?
i When Chancy cleared the county of Sandifer ami
his jjiihtf he earned his full salary. When hi! kept king
IxjotlrcKcrM and liquor dealers out of the circuit court
he earned his salary a dozen times over.
As we have said before, this is a taxpayers' fight.
If you want to rt'tnrn to the old system, vote with the
Medford newspapers. If you don't, vote with the Tax
payers' Committee.

fi-tiin .ludm- li'usk. .Iiul-p U.iisk is tin-.Justice who sentenced AleCauley
(sick litnitle'cr). lie. is 1 lu .Jtul.u'e whose letter Judjjo Thonias printed.
The letter .just receivetl I'ioiii -liitle Rusk is on tile in the office of thj
Lenue. It is as follows:
''When I first received .liufn'e 'I'hoiiiits' letter informing nie
that he had revoked his so-called order paroling Allen IK'iwiley,
I was naturally much gratified to feel that a misunderstanding
had heeu removed antl that 1 could henceforth depend upon Mr.
Thomas' co-operation, and that such a situation could not arise
again; therefore I wrote to him in an endeavor to express my
appreciation and with the idea 1 hat future conferences would
serve to further clear up the matter. . l'ut later investigations
convinced me that Judge Thomas himself had proposed this
method of releasing McCauley, without first consulting me in
the matter, although for several days just lie fore lhe order was
issued .Judge Thomas' office inrfhe court house was just across
lhe corridor from mine and we met several times each day. Sub- .
sequent attempts tti talk things over with the .Judge convinced
me that it was useless to hope for an adjustment of our ideas,
as he always insisted upon his power tti parole a man sentenced
in my court and that the Sheriff was bound, as an officer of JUS
court, to execute any tinier he might choose to issue. So I
finally gave it up as had job. I later learned, upon anthority
1 lint I consider reliable, thai .Judge Thomas was apparently wait
ing for an opportunity to make another order to release some
prisoner from my jurisdiction, possibly just: to show that lie
could tlo it.
"When the officials here, including myself joined in a re
tiiest to (iovernor Patterson to lighten McCauley 's sentence,
(since he was the only one with authority to do it), Judge
Thonias refused to join with them, and, in a letter dated May .17,',
1 )J7, insisted that the proper way to release the man was iipoii
an order from him (.Judge Thomas).

TVA'l STATED; but when the Sheriff went to get him at his
home, after his recovery from his illness, he found that the man
had fled, and McCauley has been a fugitive from Josephine
( 'mint v ever since.
"A short lime after the conviction of A. 15. Cornell in my
Court, -Judge Thomas joined with some Others in an attempt to
. bar me. from the use of the court room, in the'trial of my jury
cases, although lie had assured me he did not intend to liiix up
iii the. matter. This led to a heated verbal controversy between '
Judge Thomas and myself, during which Judge Thomas said to .
me: 'I shall take it upon myself personally to see that you arc 1
kicked clear out of the Court House!' Kvidently, Judge Thoaim'. .
saw that he had taken another untenable position, for he made
another complete reversal of his views, and ceased his efforts to .
oust nit! from the court house, although 1. have since learned that :
he made the statement, that a recall would have to be started,
against me. "C. R IJUSK." .
Judge I'usk refers to tin nvieHon of A. 15. Cornell in his court. Thi'rf
was on a liquor charge.. A. 15. Cornell is Judge Thomas' most ardent sup
porter in Josephine county. lle. is the one who drove Judge Thonias froiit
Grants Pass to Medford. May 2nd while the grand jury was waiting .for
Judge Thomas to answer the questions it had asked Jiini a week before.
This was the appointed time for him to 'answer the questions. - The grand
jury had just drawn the report that was published at llu; time to the'effect
that they could do nothing until he had answered the questions. This caused
Cornell to hurry with Judge Thomas to Medford".
