Englehardc of Eagle Point, fined 280 upon con viction of assault and battery upon John Domegalla, a neighbor, last November. Prof. Englehardt, through his attorney, F. J. Newman, filed affidavits charging two members of the Jury B. J. Palmer and Oeorge Tteichler with spoken prejudice against him. In affidavits the district attorney's office calls to the attention and con sideration of the court, the claim, "that It is a 'travesty of Justice when a Jackson county jury, com posed of honest and conscientious men and women Is subject to ft ti rade of abuse, criticism, and vllltft catlon, when they render a verdict that does not meet with approval of the attorney for the losing aide." The action of defense counsel Is characterised aa "unwarranted and unethical." and suggests to the court that the attorney is a more fit sub ject for "a rebuke" than the Jury. The district attorney's office makes affidavit that Prof. Englehardt, sev eral days before the trial, called and asked "for a private conference with District Attorney Oeorge Cod dtng, and that he was Irked when the official Insisted that Deputy Nellsen be present. Prof. Englehardt. the affidavit set forth, asked that Carl Stelder. a newphew, be re turned as a witness at county ex pense. He was advised that the dis trict attorney had no funds for this purpose. After his conviction. Prof. Englehardt brought his kinsman back. The affidavit alleges that he took him before Justice H. D. Reed of Gold Hill and endeavored to have Stelder enter a plea of guilty, before the lower court, though he knew he was scheduled for trial in the higher court. The district attorney further sets forth that Prof. Englehardt had ft fair trial and that the Jury believed the testimony of John Domegallo, chief witness for the state, who al leges that during an argument over damage Inflicted by the Englehardt hogs to his crop, he waa hit over the head with a 10-foot board. A stipulation was agreed to and filed late yesterday In circuit court between F. O. Oreenwood and N. O. Weaterfleld and Orion McDonald. through their attorneys, whereby ex ecution of Judgment as the result of a (400 verdict returned against the defendants, la withheld for $30 days. A 200 payment Is recorded on the verdict. The suit waa filed in pay ment for eggs and chickens allegedly furnished for the launching of a chicken farm In the Perrydsle dis trict. t Phone Ma We'll oaul away yom c-efiiMi City Sanlarv Sernos SALE OF POPPIES At ft meeting held last night at the home of Mrs..
