ONES AND LA DIEU RE SENTENCED 10 OT OVER 4 YEARS (Continued from Page One) thwart the orders of the court and, by the connivance of a few, the will the majority was defested. This defendsnt laughed and Joked about how the Judge would feel when he discovered the ballots were stolen. this condition were allowed to pre vail, anarchy would flourlah. . . . The atate feels that law and order should come first." Befor passing sentence, the court said: Among Arch Conspirators. "The court feels there should be no discrimination In the sentences Iven to the main defendanta. La- Dleu la no different than Judge Pehl. Both were In the affair. They were among the arch-conspirators In ths commission of a heinous and outrageous crime that filled all de cent people with a sense of horror. They attempted to take the law Into their own hands, which Is unpardon able and unthinkable." Jones was then brought before the bar of Justice, from his Jail cell, whence he was placed last night, fol lowing his arrest In Klamath Falls Monday. His counsel, Glenn Ft. Jacks of Oregon City, was unable to be pres ent, and Attorney T. J. Enrlght filed motion for a new trial, based upon the grounds that the verdict against Jones was based upon passion and prejudice, that Jurora Mary Klein- hammer, S. M. Schilling and John Peterson had misquoted the evidence, that Juror Peterson had said, In the reception room of the oHtel Medford, 'Jones Is guilty as hell, and 1 am going to vote to cinch him," and that Juror Mary Klelnhammer had expressed an opinion- on the case It waa also contended that A. L. Hugg. a wltneaa for the defense, hald waited for a nod from Jones before answering. The defense motion also claimed that Juror Harley Hall of the Little Applegate was taken 111 and the bailiff promised to get him some medicine, but did not, and that to procure the medicine. Juror Hall voted "guilty" and thus ended the long deliberations. . Cannot Impeach Verdict. The court ruled, as it did In the LaDleu new trial motion, that the statement of a Juror, made after hla verdict, cannot be used as a means to the Impeachment of their verdict. Leniency waa asked for Jones upon the ground thst Jones had alwaya been "a good citizen," that he had been elected mayor of Rogue River, that he waa formerly employed by the forest service, and that be had a wife and children. Before sentencing Jones, the court said: "The court feels sorry for the fam ily of Mr. Jones, Just as It feels sorry for the families of Mr. LaDleu and Mr. Pehl. The court Is human, and Is aubject to human emotions. Emo tions do not override duty with this court. Mr. Jones, like all the defendants In the ballot trials, haa had a fair and impartial trial. As I said yes terday at Klamath Falls, whenever there was any doubt It was resolved In favor of the defendanta. Mr. Jonas had a fair trial." The court then denied the motion tor a new trial, and ordered Jones to atand up for sentence. Jones la a man of past so years. and has been a resident of Jackson county for about 10 years. He op erates a small fruit ranch near Rogue River. He first came Into public notloa last winter, with the assump tion of office by Fehl. He waa dally visitor to the courthouse, and sprang into the limelight In the Lam- kln-Bursell farce contempt proceed ings, by introducing a petition for the resignation of Commissioner R. E. Nealon. He waa named road com missioner by Fehl, and aftcrwarda ousted. A Moving Spirit. Evidence In the five ballot theft trials revealed that Jones waa a mov ing spirit. The testimony showed that he made preparations for the breaking of the vault window by Burley Sexton, and gave ' the signal tor the window smashing, and R. O Cummlngs of Rogue River to race hla auto engine, while ''Congress" cheered to drown the sound of bresk- Ing glass: that ha waa a roving guard around the courthouss on the rob bery night, and that he waa In con ference with Fehl before and after the robbery. Evidence In the trial of LaDleu showed that he aided In hauling away six ballot pouchea from the court house, with Virgil Edlngton and Wes ley McKltrlck. that he borrowed Phil Lowd a auto, to cover up bis tracks and that he had arranged for L. A B&nka and wife to provide an alibi for hla absence ;that the six bsllot pouohes were taken to the home of Mayor Jonea In Rogue River, who provided pitch, and the trio followed Jones' suggestion to burn the ballots at the home ot McKltrlck'e parents. LaDleu has been a resident of this city for about four years. He for merly lived in Oakland, Cal., and Klamath Falls. He was Identified with L. A. Banka In varloua news paper capacities here.
