neonle Generally.
The grand Jury, which Is still in
session, was scheduled to probe the
affair in an effort to clear up the
flan-ant dlsrecard of constituted
authority.
Preliminary leeal matters In the
recount were completed yesterday be
fore Circuit Judge George F. Skip
worth of Euizene. At the morning ses.
slon of court, Judge Sklpworth ruled
that former Sheriff Jennings was
eligible as a "write-in" candidate.
Tampering Hiiiieti
At the afternoon se.lon an at
tempt was made by Attorney Elton
Watkins for Schermerhorn, to show
that the ballot boxes had been tarn
pered with. County Judge Earl H
Fehl and T. L. Brecheen of Ashland,
were among the witnesses called
They testified the ballot pouches and
boxes were In the clerk s onice atacx
ed In a corner, more or less In sight
the public. Brecheen testified
that he noted the pouches, and saw
precinct stickers lying on the window
sill. Fehl's testimony was short, and
no Questions were asked him. The
ballots were removed from the cierK s
office to the vault from which they
were stolen, December 31. The grand
Jury, it was revealed thru the teat!
mony of Foreman William T. uneve,
had investigated the loose stickers,
and that Fehl had appeared as a wit
ness before the body on the matter,
The grand Jury also took an lnven-
tory of the ballot containers and
their condition. One was found with
a broken lockbar.
Matter Long In Abeyance
Judge Sklpworth had ordered the
recount to start this morning, on the
grounds that there was no evidence
the ballot boxes had been tampered
with. The court observed, "that the
mere opportunity to tamper, or mere
suspicion does not constitute evi
dence." The defense counsel made a
determined effort to block the recount.
The question of a recount has been
before the courts and public since
last November. On December 3. Jen
nings, the "write-in-" candidate,
through Attorney Porter J. Neff, tiled
a recount petition. Service of sub-
Regular Communication of
Reames Chapter O. E.
Wednesday evening, Feb,
32nd. Initiation and social
poena was attempted on Schermer
horn. It was then found that Scher
merhorn was In Siskiyou county.
Two other subpoenas were issued, but
service was not made due to Scner
merhorn's continued absence in Cali
fornia. The first of the year Sheriff
Schermerhorn returned, to assume
office, and was served, and the initial
steps taken for the recount.
Started in January
Judge Sklpworth heard the first
motions In the case, in mid-January,
and announced he would return in a
short time to conclude the proceed
ings. He was delayed until Monday,
by pressure of business In his cwn
district, until yesterday. The pro
ceedings were well underway, when
brought to a final close, by the bal
lot theft of last night.
Sheriff Schermerhorn was issued a
certificate of election on the official
count which gave him a majority of
123 votes over former Sheriff Jen
nings, a "write-in" candidate, Jen
nings contended in his petition that
a sufficient number of votes for him
were cast out on "technical errors" by
the various election boards, to have
caused his election by "not less than
97 votes."
The ballot robbery was the chief
topic of conversation throughout the
county today. The general verdict
was "things have gone far enough,"
with the firm demand that the per
petrators of the outrage be brought
to Justice.
