IarKument for tho ttate, and Circuit
Jiidco nemon Instruct the Jury, tlie
futo of William Slma, Love Chandler
and Ivan Krnat, charged with cattle
rustllnjc, will bo lu the hand of the
Jury.
Tlio opening argument for the ttato
aa made laat night by H. M. Man
ning, and In tbli he attacked the
veracity ot aeveral of tho defenae'a
nllnesteit, particularly that of Floyd
itrandenburft". He atated that the
klnte'a caan against the trio wan con
lndng, and for the ake or l.ixr and
order, bo aiked that Jutlc be done
I In tho wny of a verdict.
This morutug'a aeaslon of the court
waa occupied bby the argument! for
the defenae. Qolng over the Saws In
tho atate'a caao, as tbey appeared to
the detente. Judge Nolnnd itated that
the three men were victims of the
crcat Western war between tho
homesteader and the cattleman.
Tho argument ot Judge Drake at
tacked the state's case, and classed It
as a "wounded bird." Ho held that
It uas all built upon a scheme out
lined by Tt. 31. Osborn. whom ho
called tho "shorter and uglier" word.
Discrepancies In the evidence ot the
prosecution's testimony, such a a
confession by Chandler to Osborn In
a snowstorm, while driving cattle,
the condttlou ot the hide alleged to
have been burled, etc.. were pointed
out. and tho attorney -held that the
tntij had utterly failed to prove that
.fldi Johnson's spotted cow had been
Killed.
Court rendjourned thia afternoon at
a o'clock, when C. . OnelU began
the Mnto's closing argument. A large
crowd Is present to hear this speech.
1 he caso will bo In the Jury's hands
tuntchl beyond a doubt. Theru are
many theories as to the verdict to be i
relumed, but It Is the general opinion
that the Jury wilt be out for some
time.
fclms. Chandler and Ernst, all prom
inent In tho Sand Hollow country, are
charged with killing a spotted cow
belonging to J. X. Johnson, selling
the meat and burying tho hide on the
Rims ru'ueh. This was alleged to have
been done In December, 191S, and the
hide found aycar later.
Although there Is one school dis
trict that has not yet submitted n&
enumeration, and while a number of
children aro enumerated In more than
one district, and It Is necesasry tot
bate these matters straightened out
before anything definite can be given
out, it Is believed that there are 2.690 I
children ot school age In Klamath
county. ,
Last year's enumeration waa 2.CI7.'
Tho gain this yoar Is still larger than)
the figures Indicated, as all 20 years
ot age were eliminated this year, but
wero enumerated last year.
