To the Editor:
Last month an Illuminating mee
aage waa brought to Oregon by Mr.
Patmont, a Protestant Chrlatlan mln
later and lecturer on the menace of
communism. With calm, dispassion
ate delivery, he emphasized and Ulua
trated many significant facta that
have a pertinent beari:i upon the
political crisis of this perloa.
The flrat two evenings were given
to the discussion of communism and
bolshevlam. being Illustrated by pho
tographs recently taken by himself,
that were as convincing aa they ware
nlnvahla Of RmMn hlfMMl himself
and avowedly not antl-Semetlo In hla
convictions, yet ne warned an Aryan

of communists were of the Jewish
race.

jrn(A ihrtlvn An the ntLTt Of PrO-

On the acreen and over the air. we
do not get tho plcturea that reveal

He Impreased his audience with tha
fact that America, while aufferlng
h umr.f. ri.nMuinn In her hlatorv.
la yet a happy, comfortable place In
which to live, compared witn tvuasia
under the rule ot Stalin and hla
Marxian prlnolplea of government.
One scene of Russian youth, revealed
a vaat throng of well-fed and clothed
children, lifting their clenched flata
to heaven, aa they formally denied

teachers, and. though we may be

Comment
on the
Day s News
By FRANK JF.NKIN3
lHARLET HORTON came to tha
southern Oregon country with
hla
parenta about 1670: he belm
then Juat a ohlld. They settled In
Poe valley, across thu mountalna and
Just north of tha California Una.
The Indiana were restleaa and men.
aclng, so their flrat Job after build-
ing a cabin waa to erect a stockade
around It.
THIS atockade was built according
tO the Dattem rnmmnn -M
the Wast that la, by aharpenlng logs
to a point and driving them Into tha
ground aide by side so aa to mate a
wall. The stockade wis built clear
around the house, and the bam wag
Just outside It.
On thla stockade, they did a rather
fancy Job, digging a ditch around It
and filling the ditch with water. The
ditch thua served the purposes of a
moat, like those surrounding the me.
dleval castles. The purpose of the
moat waa to check attackers who
might try to scale the walla.
The walla of the stockade wer
pierced at atrateglo points by nar
row portholes through which tha de
fenders could thrust thlr guns.
THE Modoc war broke out only a
little more than two years after
the Hortona arrived, and thla atock
ade became a refuge for the neigh
borhood. At the outbreak of the disturbance.
aa Charley recalls It, the government
distributed to the settlera a aupply
or old "needle" guns, along with am- ;
munition for them, and these mine
were placed In rack around th
walla, boxes ox ammunition wer
broken open and everything waa
placed In readlneaa for defense.
A it happened, no Indiana came
Into Poe valley, but the atockade wa
nevertheless a great comfort. ,

DRIVINO through peaceful Poe val
ley today. It's hard to reallm
tne tension that existed there back
In the early 70a, with no one know
ing .when riding band of Indiana
might appear.
But it Isn't particularly hard to
Imagine th thrill young Charley
Horton must have been getting out
of It all. He wa too young to real
lie the danger, but Juat the right
age to soak up all the excitement.
His eyes light up yet when he tell
of It.
THE8H old "needle" gun were con
verted muzzle-loaders. They had
hinged breech-block, with a catch
at the side, and thla breech-block:
lifted up alter the gun wa fired for
the ejection of the empty ahell. A
long firing pin ran diagonally down
through the breech-block, and It was
from this that they took the name
"needle" gun.
Th cartridge waa about half a
long again aa grown person's finger,
and tha bullet wa a big, husky slug
that did thing to whatever It bit.
When fired, It made noise like a
young cannon.
THE war ended. The Modoc were
returned to th reservation. The
excitement died down. But th gov.
ernment failed to pick up all these
old gun. For which, ot course, th
kids were duly grateful.
Cleaning one of these old musket
on day, long after the Indian ex
citement had subsided, young Char
ley stuck a rag in It, along with the
ramrod (which wa heavy steel af.
fair) and all hi (ffort couldn't get
It out. So he did what every other
kid would have done under the cir
cumstance he prepared to ahoot it
out.
But he waa cautious. Be extracted
th bullet from a cartridge, shoved
th cartridge Into th chamber, and
then braced the butt against tree,
pointing th muzzle up toward a
hill behind th house. After that,
he tied a string to th trigger, cocked
th gun, retired 10 or IS feet and
gav a yank,
.
" CAN hear yet th roar that old
1 gun mad when it went off," he
alad to thla writer yesterday. "It
sounded louder than a big Sliit. AsO
up on th aide ot th hill that old
steel ramrod kicked up a dust Ilka a
band of horses.
"But It dldnt bust th barrel, or
van bulge it. and we cleaned th
gun out and went on using It."
