XrEDTORD tXTE TTJTBUXT!, "MmFOTlD, OTxEGON", THURSDAY, JUST! 15. 1933. PAGE THREE LA DIEU GUILTY IN BALLOT PLOT IS JURY VERDICT (Continued troca rage One.) city, in the sum of 17,600. Moody said, "there was some question about the citizenship of Englehardt and the other two were uncertain." Objection were filed by Attorney T. J. Enright for the defense, to the state's contentions, and their request for Immediate committment. The court- ruled that La Dleu be allowed liberty for the night with the understanding that he be In court this morning, to satisfy the court on the strength of the bonds. "The court must be assured that the bonds are gilt-edged," Judge Sklpworth said. The controversial points in the Jury's discussion were said to be over the connection of defendants other than La Dleu with the vote stealing and that the Jurors analyzed thoroughly the evidence of the chief witnesses. Sympathy Swayed One of the Jurors, declared that two of the Jurors were "guided more by their sympathies than their con victions." The state contended that County Judge Earl H. Fehl, Suspended Sher iff Schermerhorn, John Glenn, form er County Jailer Tom L. Brecheen of Ashland and Walter J. Jones, mayor of Rogue River, conspired to steal the ballots, and prevent a recount of the votes for sheriff. The verdict was a signal victory for the state. Inasmuch as It gave credence to their conspiracy conten tions. The case was oitterly fought. The evidence against La Dleu, told by accomplices and corroborated by others, not parties to the crime, was that on the night of February 20, during a meeting of the "Good Gov ernment Congress," the theft waa committed and the courthouse vault burglarized. Ballots Destroyed Four ballot containers were taken on the first trip, and six more were taken In Phil Lowd's auto, borrowed and driven by La Dleu. They took the ballots to the home of Jones In Rogue River, burning the ballots at the home of Wesley McXltrlck's par ent and throwing the empty sacks In Rogue river at the mouth of Galls creek. Ringleaders Shown Evidence was Introduced to show that Pehl, Scharmerhorn, Jones, Glenn and Breoheen had suggested the crime to the actual perpretrators, The state held that Schermeihorn and Pehl weve the chief benefic iaries of the crime." La Dleu d'.d not take the stand in his own behalf and the court ln structcd the Jury that this was his privilege and should not weigh against him in their deliberations. La Dl';u, who haa been a resident of this city for about four years, was formerly a business aide of L. A. Banjift, convicted slayer. He has a wife and three children. D. A R.

E SI Val. J. Fischer, who opened the Sixth Street Super Service Station In October. 1937. needs no Introduction to ttw people of Medford and sur rounding territory. The service which he has rendered to the public and the quality of merchandise supplied them have made his name well known with hundreds of southern Oregon motorists. Under his management the Sixth Street Super Service Station has been modernized and remodeled from time to time to meet changing conditions and the business has grown to the point where it has become too much for one man to handle. In order to provide the pub lic with the service wnich they have become accustomed to receive at this station, Mr. C. A. Helgho haa been made a member of the corporation and will assist Mr. Fischer In the management and operation. Mr. Helgho Is a newcomer to Medford, slav ing spent a number of years In tne employ of the United States Rubber company, and he is well qualified by training and experience to take care of the tire needs of both the pleasure car owner and the truck operator. The sale of tires has not In the past been stressed by the Sixth Street Super Service Station for the reason that it has been Impossible to ob tain a lineup which Mr. Fischer felt would fit In with the quality of oth- turns to the United States this u er merchandise handled. However, a tumn. connection now has been made with the United States Rubber company to handle 1U line In this territory, and the same effort will be made to give the motoring public the same high degree of service which has al ways been given In the other de partments of the business.
