OF BALLOT STEALING UNABLE GET (Continued from Page One) Fehl opposed this for some reason, and testimony In hia trial showed he acted as adrlsor tn Bchermerhorn and counselled hts absence from the state until the sheriff took office. The testimony also showed thst Fehl had dictated Schermerhorn s ap pointees. In consideration of a asoOO loan from an Ashland friend. Hectlo efforts to thwart the re count culminated In the ballot rob bery of February, for which five men are now serving time and Blx others are on parole. Tried To Block Police Following the first theft arrest Fehl attempted to issue habeas cor pus papers for their release, and also attempted to Issue a warrant for the arrest of offlclsls engaged In nabbing ballot thieves. Fehl himself listed as on of the defendants, remained In seclusion until he could furnish ais.OOO bonds. Fehl established a "county com missary,' 'and testimony at his trial showed "Banks Ouards" fed from it. Tehl hurled chargea right and left against his political foes, and as an outgrowth- of them a county audit was ordered, which will be filed the last of the week. Fehl charged that county funds were misused. Last of the ballot theft defendants to be brought to trial, Fehl asked three times for a Changs of venue before It was granted. The case was moved to Klamath county, where the Jury returned a verdict of guilty In 13 minutes. Disavowed O, O. C. The outstanding features of the trial, were Fehl's dlssvowal of mem bership In the "aood . Government Congress," whose votes he sought, and whose meetings he addressed; and a feeble effort to shift the blame from his own shoulders to Schermer horn and Brecheen and Attorney Elton Watklns of Portland, who had honored him with their friendship. Immediately following his sudden conviction Fehl was placed In the Klamath county Jail, Rnd Earl B. Day named as county Judge. Under Oregon law Fehl, convicted of a felony, is barred from ever hold ing an' appointive office, or seeking an elective one. The last chapter of his bitter and stormy life aged him 30 years, friends say. With good behavior in prison, Fehl will eb entitled to 16 months "good time," and will be eligible to parole In 33 months. Fehl will Join the "hog fuel" crew In his first two weeks In the peniten tiary, after which he will be assigned to prison labor, as near as possible to his pursuit when free. F. C.

There was little in the news to re vive activity either among the bulls or besrs. The publlo was virtually out of the market and floor traders j accounted for most of the price. fluc tuations. Grains ended unchanged at their minimum rates. With the "pegging" of quotations at Winnipeg, wheat Jumped some 4 cents a bushel there, but later lost more than half this gain.
