Pred Wolf, resident of th Blrda
ey creek district, lndlotod by the
grand Jury on a mi nsiaug liter charge
for the slaying of Bill Sneldon May
4 last, wilt be arraigned as soon as
the circuit court procedure permits,
and will b placed on trial at the

pasture with Wolf's wife, as the cli
max of a rural triangle love affair.
Th manslaughter charge carries
with ft a state prison term of from
one to IB years. It covers crimes of
violence, committed In Vie heat of
passion and without premeditation,
and with extenuating circumstances.
Th only witnesses were Sheldon,
end Wolf's wife- who cannot testify
against her husband.
Wolf will probably plead self-defense
and the "unwritten law.' He

of Joseph B. (Bud Johnston, killed
during a atrwt altercation, following
an argument over the ballot theft
convictions.
Sentence was postponed against
Davis In the ballot theft case, pend
ing the outcome of the fatal affair.
The four not true bills, filed with
the county clerk this morning, con
cerned an alleged case of the theft
of two grubbing hoe and other gar
den tools, the purported theft of a
calf, a family quarrel In which a knife
was wielded, and a larceny case.
The secret Indictment was returned
against Ted Haines of the Red Top

PORTLAND. Aug. a" fl Hun
dreds of young men who until a
few months sgo hsd never dreemed
thst such vast timbered areas 1id
exist, are now regarded aa the real
heroes of the greatest forest con
flagration In Oregon in the memory
of man.
These youths, members of President
Roosevelt's "Clvlllsn Conservation
Corps," served ss the backbone of
the srmy of seversl thousand which
for two weeks battled unsurmoun;-
able odda In the great forest fire ee
tor of northwestern Oregon. Many
hundreds of the 13,000 C. 0. C,
workers In this stste were recruited
from the Industrtsl centers of the
esat snd the mid-west. Trees to
them were decorative objecta In park
squares.

But In the past two weeks, before
their tsry fta. terrifying forest fires
have mowed down perhaps 116,000.000
worth of ' fine timber from many
thousands of acres of foreet lands
These flames defied the concentrated,
oqurageous and heart-breaking effort
of 4,000 men to bring them under
control. Today nature aligned herself
with the wesry and grimy fire fight
ers to bring showers to the stricken
areas.
Pedersl snd state forestry oflclals
had nothing but highest praise for
the conduct of the young members
of the conservation corps. In the
fsee of considerable peril, these
youngsters, trained and trim and
naray from several weeks' prellmln
sry work In the healthful woods,
thrsw themselves vigorously Into the
battle with the enemy of the woods.
Like Battle Front.
Every resource was adopted to In
sure the ssfety of the young men on
the fire lines. Federal and state of
ficials kept constant- euard st head
quarters camps where quick orders
were snapped over forest service tele
phone lines or . (lashed by the port
able field sets of the forest wireless
system. Airplanes reconnoltered from

smoke. Ground crews conveyed In

peaks.
Several times the flames, traveling
on the wings of gsles, would hsve

several hundred youths were desert

the tents.
In the two weeks, only one life was
lost. Prsnk Palmer, 31, or Marcel,

fell snd crushed him.

When the youths return eventually
to their home In eastern cities, they
may feel the need of corroborating
testimony as they recite tsles of their
adventures, so strange have some of
these experiences been. But forestry
offlclsls her will vouch for them.
Some of the fire fighters, fleeing be
fore the explosive flames, hsve run
side by side with fear-atrlcken ani
mals of the forests. Men and deer
and cougars have fled along trails
together ahead of the menacing
fires. Men and deer have sought
refuge from the blasting heat in
the earns streams, wildcats and tim
orous amaler animals of the woods
have crowded 'together In a ahelter

But there waa hope or prayer In
