Brock, resident of this city, for questioning In connection with the brazen and audacious theft of ballots from ft courthouse vault on the eve of the sheriff race recount. Release on 11500 bonds, furnished by Ernest Da hack. Eagle Point, and Alfred Poston, Plnehurst, of C. H. Brown, secretary of the "Good Gov ernment congress," and father of Henrietta B. Martin, president of the organization, following his arrest In the midst of "congressmen", on ft tour of the courthouse. Bank Slander Ctiarped Brown Is charged with "slandering a bank," by reason of an article ap pearing In the last Issue of the Pa cific Record -Herald, alleging the pro visions of the bnnk moratorium had been violated. Brown was arrested by Constable George J. Prescott. He had been sought since Saturday afternoon. Authorities continue ' search for missing men, wanted on warrants for quizzing In the ballot theft cases. Unmistakable Indications that Banks' "revolt talk" coupled with the courthouse raid had alienated dozens of "Good Government con gress" members, and those more or less tolerant of the organization's activities. Local Unemployed Council voices disapproval of Banks' "courthouse speech", and resent asserted snub by "Good Government congress" leaders. "Committee of 100" to continue vigilance to stamp out agitation. At the demonstration yesterday, which lacked the fire and fury of previous gatherings, a stenographic account of the speeches of County Judge E. H. Fehl, Henrietta B. Mar tin, and L. A. Banks were taken: The speech of Banks, as taken by W. J. Looker, was as follows: Mr. Banks: "You were told a few months ago that if they could close the Dally News that you would have P?ace in Jackson county. Do you remember that? (Voices from audience: Yea.) "You were told that Llewellyn A. Banks was a disturber of the peace. (Voice from audience: A riotous man.) "Yes, ft riotous man. Now my friends, the Medford Daily News was stolen In this court room, deliberate ly stolen and delivered into the handB of thieves. How long ago? A week. last Saturday, a week ago on Saturday. What has happened !n the way of peace since then? Con sider the kind of peace you have. (Voice from audience: We are get ting pieces.) "I will show you the peace that crowd of- criminals, the gang . . . (Voices from crowd) the kind of peace. They commenced to arrest your citizens and put them into jail Incommunicado, as they did in Cuba, picked up our boys, as Inno cent as lambs, and threw them in among the fleas and lice and held them there incommunicado under five thousand dollars bonds when they did get out, while Joe Cave. the man Indicted for murder was out on 01500 bond, wearing a gun, in a uniform, and I want to say to you, friends, that Joe Cave, the man who was Indicted up here, was the man who questioned our boys as to their Innocence or guilt.

And so these Jecause'h's toasted" ( Voice from the audience : He would know. Laughter.) "Now you don', know half the story. I know you have been lied to, falsified to every day since last Saturday, with no one to answer, and X say to you, my friends, X haven't read one paper, I refuse to read ft aper in Jackson county because they are full of falsity. Now we pro pose to give you a newspaper and we will tell you the truth. (Applause.) "Now I am not asking for sym pathy. I see some of the criminals In this crowd, that stole this newspaper. (Laughter.) "I see the criminals in sight here, and I could call their names, a de liberate steal, and you wilt find some day that Judge Duncan, when he was sent In here. he knew before he got here what he was going to do. Why? Because he had the men Al ready sitting In that room, as soon as he handed down that decision, the greatest crime in the history, "Now one thing more. I am not asking for sympathy, but in the past ten days, since my newspaper has been closed, they have confiscated $200,000 worth of my property In this county. irespective of law, against the law. Now, what are you going to do about It? I will tell you what I am going to do about It. I say In the presence of this audience, I wrote to Governor Meter today, and to the supreme court of this state today and to other officials, and told them that unless we could have law and order, that I would take the field against them. (Applause.) "Now you understand what X said?

In explaining failure to permit de posits, Mr. Harder brought to the Medford audience one of the most optimistic predictions of the day. "When President Roosevelt appears before congress Thursday," he de clared "It is my belief that hi plan wilt provide for acceptance of de posits In the way of trust funds and that new deposits will be guaranteed by the federal government. Such ac tion would immediately restore con fidence In business and bring forth money In hiding, the wheels of in dustry would start turning. I am not saying that this will happen Mr. Harder added, "but it Is my belief that It is the logical thing to do and that It will probably be done." Urging the continuance of buying on the part of the public and the extension of credit by merchants, Mr. Harder declared. "I would rather have a man's credit than the goods on my shelf. Credit is the life's blood of this country. It Is still the coraer atone of commerce." Not Enough Currency. Answering the question: "Why Is this country in this position?" Mr. Harder stated, "It Is because of our system of doing buslnes. We pay by check. In the United States there are deposits In the banks amounting to sixty billion dollars. In circulation there Is only seven billion dollars in currency. If all want their money at once, there Is naturally not enough to go around."
