waa Indicted for burglary not m a

lot thefts.
He won the Democratic nomination
in the spring primary last year, and
In the general election defeated
Ralph G. Jennings by a narrow mar
gin of 123 votes. With the Issuance
of a certificate of election, he came
upon tempestuous days.

announced he would life a contest
late last November, and Schermer
horn absented himself until taking
office, in Siskiyou county, to evade
aummons. The recount petition was
then filed under the "corrupt prac
tice act.
Recount Ordered.
The matter was pending In circuit
court for two months. Finally cir
cuit Judge G. F. Skip worth of Lane
county, after bearing the preliminary
arguments in January, returned on
February 10. After a day in court,
Judge Sklpworth ruled the recount
should be held, following a deter
mined fight to prevent it.
That night, and in the early morn
ing of February 20, approximately 10,
000 of the ballots were stolen from a
courthouse vault, and destroyed. The
brazen and bungled crime, automat
ically ended the recount. On February
25 Schermerhom was arrested by Cor
oner Frank Perl, on a ballot theft
charge, and on March 15 he was in
dieted with 22 others, on the same
charge.
Later, Commissioners Billings and
Nealon filed a complaint against
Schermerhom, charging him with in
efficiency, obstruction of Justice, and
favoritism to "congressmen.
Was Hanks, Fell! Cntspaw.
The governor ordered a hearing, and
some sensational facts were revealed
including testimony that Schermer
hom had been sworn in at the resi
dence of Earl H. Fehl, who made his
appointments; that he was unduly
solicitous toward L. A. Banks and
Fehl, and waa under their domina
tion: thnt he showed an indlffer- j
enee towards . "congressmen" and
loiterers dally Jamming the court
house corridors, that he had taken
no action when Banks, at an Inter
view proposed the naming of "50,
100 or 1,000 deputies" to take over
Jackson county," that his cftlef dep
uty had written Banks, suggesting a
convenient time for Banks to be ar
rested on a criminal libel charge, and
that the deputy had loaned his sedan
to Arthur LaDleu and Wesley Mo
Kitrlck, two men Indicted for ballot
theft, on the night of the robbery.
Denied Wrongdoing.
Schermerhom In defense declared
he had made concessions in the ap
pointment of a Jailer, but after agree
ing to resign had "refused because I
was guilty of no crime, and had done
no wrong"; that he did not know of
the acts of his chief deputy until
told in court; that he showed no
favoritism, and performed the duties
of his office as best he could.
Friends of Schermerhom of many
years standing say his present trouble
is due to accepting the advice of
political plotters and schemers, and
express a firm faith in his integrity,

LIVING IS CHEAP
IN SOUTH SEAS
SAYS SALISBURY
1 have found the Ideal place for
people to go who are dissatisfied with
our country. There they can live on
sixty cents a year, and can get along
without the sixty cents if they want
to use tapa cloth." Suoh was Cap
tain Edward A. Salisbury's reference
to the Marquesas group of South Sea
Islands, where he recently made a
visit In his numerous Journeys of
exploration.
Captain Salisbury la in Medford in
connection with the showing of his
moving picture "Ra-Mu , being pre
sented at the Crater! an theater.
The captain waa a visitor in Med
ford nearly three years ago, and to
day he expressed regret at the trouble
that recently occurred here, spread
ing adverse publicity throughout the
world.
"The quicker you ship these people
out of the country who have been
causing all this trouble, the better
off you'll be. We really ought to
find a poorer place than the Mar
quesas islands, because It's a para
dise." "These suggestions are merely for
the grumblers," the captain said,
"because personally, I am quite satis
fied with the finest government and
the finest country in the world. I
only hope I don't do anything or say
anything that they will want to ship
me out of here."
The Islands referred to by Captain
Salisbury, are about four hundred
miles below the equator and six hun
dred miles from the French head
quarters at Tahaltt. The country
was formerly densely populated, but
due to many deaths from white
men's diseases, la now sparsely In
habited. The vegetation and animal
life grow In great abundance, with
the streams full of fish, and all ani
mals that were once domesticated,
now make up the wild animal life of
the island.
Referring to his movie "Ra-Mu".
the captain said he was "bringing a
picture that tells the truth about
twenty thousand miles."

about longitudinal 3. so I went down
and stood above the control car and
watched the antennas on the port
side and also the antenna on the
starboard side.
Lieut. Calnan came along and ask
ed me what I waa diking there.
I called his attention to what I had
noticed and he told me to stand by
the co-unit.
Went to RmoklnR Room.
While standing there, Oommandei
Cecil came up from the control oat
and I noticed the wings on his coal
and asked him whether he would
rather be on an airplane or where
he was.
"He replied he was "damn glad
to be where he was.'
"I then went to the smoking room
and X left the smoking room at 13:03
by my- watch which was set with the
chronometer in the crew's men hall.
"I then took my flying gear off.
also my shoes, and laid down on my
bunk in the outer keel, with my
head on my hand resting on my
elbow.
-I happened to be looking up and
noticed the No. 7 cell was swishing
quite more than usual.
(Inters Give Way.
"While looking at this cell the ship
gave a tcrrlfio lurch sideways and
longitudinal girders seven and eight
gave way as well as some of the wires.
I waa on my feet in the keel and
the ship started down by the tail.
My first thought was to get a pair of
aide cutters to slip the fuel tanks aft,
but while thinking thla I noticed the
control wires go through the sheaves
and looking forward at another noise
noticed the tank at 147 drop from
her forward suspension.
At this time the ship had reached
a very sharp Inclination, so much
so that I had to reach for the .side
girders to hold myself up.
I decided to go forward as I was
afraid that the gasoline tank would
carry away altogether and come back
and hit me.
I proceeded forward, when I got at
frame 170 BUI Russell and Dean were
there and some other fellows who I
do not remember.
Ship Falling Fast
The ship was falling quite rapidly
now and I knew she was to crash.
About five or ten seconds before she
crashed the lights went out in the
keel.
I retained my stand on the keel
and then heard a noise aft and then
water hit my feet.
A gnsollne tank or something hit
me under the water, and Z started to
go through the motions of swimming,
but my right leg was caught In a
girder or wire and I pulled on it. And
then after quite a spell came to the
surface. I took In a couple of mouth
fulls of water which was mixed with
gasoline.
I started swimming and then no
ticed lights on the water. It came
to me that It was the flares In the
control car going off. For a second
or so during a lightning flash, I saw
a portion of the ship floating In the
air. X started to swim for the ship,
but she went out of sight.
Heard Cries for Help.
I heard the men crying for help
and saw a couple of men float by me.
They were either floating or dead. X
do not know which. Arter about 30
minutes' swimming I sighted a gaso
line tank and saw men on It. I
swam up to it and asked who the
men were. Erwin replied jus name.
Copelnnd replied his name and then
I br n in asked who the other man
was. Erwin then replied Ruta.iv He
(Rutan) did not answer. Due to the
high waves, the tank would roll and
we would lose our hold on the tank.
I remember Copeland or myself say
ing to Hj and take it easy to keep
the tank from rolling as there was
a spout on It and she would take in
water every time she would roll.

sighted a fthip and told the men on
