TRIAL OF JONES
IN BALLOT THEFT
TO
(Continued trora rage One.)
Cites Or eat it Conspiracy
"Ths defense claim that the e ri
de nee given against jonee, by hit fel
low conspirator does not coincide.
The testimony la the greatest con
spiracy that ever existed does not con
form. There was a conspiracy to cru
cify our Ohrlst. The record of the
four apostles Mark, Matthew, Luke,
and John are all different, but the
conspiracy was completed. Doea any
sane person doubt, for one moment
that a conspiracy did not exist to
destroy the ballots, and prevent the
recount."
"This was not a spontaneous crime.
The boys the Sextons and. Conners
did not do it of their own volition.
Older men put them up to it. Men
who would profit thereby, men who
did not want the ballots counted in
the sheriff's contest, and who did not
want them counted for another of
fice. They wanted to be able to con
tinue their practices.
At another point Moody said:
."111 tell you why the defense did
not call La Dleu. He could testify.
His ease has been disposed of. He has
been seated in the courtroom all the
time advising the defense. I presume
they did not call La Dleu because
La Dleu did not want to add perjury
to his crimes, and he Is to be com
plimented for it.
County Foots Bill
"Attorney Enrlght get up hers and
tells you, that the state Is paying for
witnesses. The state Is also paying
for defense witnesses. The defense
brought two from Coos county. All the
witnesses get the same pay. Jackson
county foots the bill."
Referring to Enrlght's castlgatlon
of state witnesses, Attorney Moody
said:
"The state has to take the asso
ciates of the defendant in the crime,
as Its witnesses. The state did not
ask them to commit burglary not in
a dwelling, and thus thwart an order
of this court."
"The defense deals In half-truths,
to blind you to the guut of Jones.
They should point to the whole truth
or nothing."
Attorney Enrlght characterized
Moody's first speech, as "a patriotic
address of government, snd says the
nation will not survive unless Walter
Jones, a good taxpayer Is not con
victed." Says State Witnesses All Liars
"Walter Jones and you will re
member I asked him specifically, de
clared on the witness stand, that all
the state witnesses, who connected
him with the ballot theft were un
truthful," declared Assistant Attorney
General Ralph E. Moody in his clov
ing address to the Jury Wednesday
afternoon.
"The 'state needs no witnesses to
Impeach Walter Jones. He impeached
himself. I could ask for no better
impeaching witness."
According to his testimony, no state
witness told the truth. It looks like
at least one of them, might have ap
proached it, when Mr. Jones was con-
cerned. Are you going to believe Jones
the only witness, who is not a liar."
"Jones and Glenn and the rest of
the co-consplrators were too coward
ly to do the Job themselves. They
wanted the fruits of the crime, but
would not take its risks," declare,
the tte prosecutor. "A man the
site of Jones could not crawl thru
the vault window, as the Jury can
see for themselves. 80 they went and
Induced these kids to do it. They
didn't want to do it, but they look
ed at the size of Jones and Martin
and others, and thought it best.
Went To Sextons
"The Sexton boys were not the best
boys in the world. They had been
buffeted around a bit. Glenn and
Fehl gave them a place to sleep, and
something for their stomachs. So
when the ballot theft conspirators,
went looking for aides In their crime,
did they seek boys from the Sunday
schools, and the well-regulated homes.
They wouldn't do it, and they knew
It. So they went to the Sexton's,
who have not been blessed with the
divine environments, such as you have
in your own homes. The Sexton's
were not as fortunately circumstanced
as moat youths. They were obligated
to Jones, and Fehl,
"The ballots meant nothing to the
Sexton boys. They couldn't eat them.
They couldn't spend them. The Sex
1 tons didn't care who was sheriff. It
made no difference to them, who was
county Judge. But it did make a dif
ference to Glenn, who held -a Job un
der Schermerhorn. It did make a dif
ference to Jones, a Fehl appointee to
a county Job."
"You have got to believe the Sex
tons, for they told you they broke
the vault window, and with Jean
Conners, another boy. they stole the
ballote.
Fehl Interested
"Fehl was mighty interested in the
ballots. They did not want the bal
lots counted, for sheriff, or any oth
er office. They were afraid the aher
iff's recount wold reveal other things.
f they did not want the people to
know." declared Attorney Moody at
another point.
"Jones denies that La Dleu, McKlt
rick. and Edlngton came to his house
at Rogue River with stolen ballots.
Jones' wife denies tt. His daughter
denies It. His son-in-law denies it.
Why didn't the defense call Arthur
La Dleu. He has been In the court
room all the time. He was there. He
knows. They didn't call La Dleu be
cause he would have knocked the
story of Jones and his kin into a
cocked hat.- Attorney Moody asserted.
"Jones defense has been an alibi,
and a poor one." Moody said in clos
ing. "You as citizens have got to do
your duty, and put a stop to things
like ballot stealing. It stilkes at the
VerV foundation rtf aiif rrrwmm mnt
the rule the people. It is hard to
Imagine the malignancy of this crime
Its audacity."
Attorney Moody also said: "No de
fendant, in any court, In any juris
diction, ever received a fairer trial,
than Walter Jones."

"Jocko." the overgrown monkey or
small ape no one seemed able to
agree upon which, has swung In high
branches of a tree for the last time.
His own perversity and the unerring
eye of a deputy sheriff conspired to
cause his death.
The ape fled his cage a montA or
so ago and reverted to a half-wild
stage. He ripped up gardens In the
Kelley Butte area, terrorized small
children, and spread havoc among
chickens of the district.
Yesterday a half dozen frantic
calls reached the police. Three depu
ties responded. They saw the ape
high In the limbs of a fir tree. One
of the officers decided to climb Vie
tree. Near tne top, he said, the en
raged ape "charged" him. less than
six feet away. He fired and the
monkey fell through the limbs to
the ground.
