A, Anness while, a source'.of satisfaction to every '.decent man. and woman in this county, must, neverthe less, bring a 'blush, of shame to the cheek when it is realized that he was turned loose by the 'circuit court of Klamath county. The time has come when such' traves ties must cease. : When men of the type of Anness ome before our courts, justice must be meted out to them. , . J When , -Anness was brought before the bar of justice in this city, a directed verdict resulted on the technicality that a wife cannot testify against her husband. There is no such. law. Sections 733 and 1335 provide that a wife caiMestafy against her husband where a crime has been committed. That the vilest crime was committed in this instance there is no question. That the evidence was at hand to prove it is equally true. The directing of a verdict under such circumstances was a disgrace to the com munity and cannot but lower the respect for -our courts and for law. .-. ... . No such travesty occurred in the federal court, where the same evidence sent Anness to the penitentiary for the limit of the law. Klamath county is, indeed, in a sad plight when its acting district attorney defends such a man and when our circuit court turns him loose. We are fortunate that C. C. Brower was in office at'the time and that he was able to interest the federal authorities, with the result that society. will be safe from this man for some time to come. ' - THE MAYOR'S VETO 1 . . Klamath Falls is fortunate in having as mayor such ,a man as -Dr. F. R. Goddard. His prompt veto of the .. resolution granting to the 0. C. & E. railroad a franchise that would be of . almost irreparable injury to Klamath Falls indicates that he is oh his guard and quick to act in the best interests of the city. His message is terse, to .the point and lays a foundation upon" which may -well rest every such move in the future. That his act not only guards the vital interests of the 'city, but is in complete harmony with the overwhelming sentiment of the community, is a fact well known. It is a message of welcome to the Oregon Trunk as well as one -of assurance to the people of the city that as long as Mayor Goddard is in office there is the certainty that every move to prevent its full development will be ; promptly squelched. SUGAR BEET TRIAL QUOTA IS OVER TOP . With the -sugar beet trial ship , about : on the rocks, 'progressive ' farmers and, business men Joined hands one week ago and through l their efforts raised the beet acreage -aibova the 000 acres necessary for the trial. It was announced yester- day. . -' ' The ultimatum Issued In the early, "' part of the month by M. H. Olde j.moyer, representative of the Sacra mento Valley, Sugar company, was , that unless a minimum of 600 acres "' could be signed up in a week's time, ; any-helping hand of the sugar re-. ; fining company In promoting the beet Industry in Klamath, would have to be withdrawn. . A meeting of farmers and busl . .Vhesa men was called and a commit f tee appointed to handle each district j."ln Klamuth, In which beet growing iiwould; be feasible. , -.riSeed and drills: will arrive in.

Here, is a man who has the power to gaze Into past, present and' future as though, it were an open book. He gives names, places,' and accurate data on subjects that have long been unsolved mysteries and all this without ,ne moments preparation, or , a seconds thought Just a glance In a crystal ball and all is revealed to hjm ask him any: question you wish he can and will; answer it. , There is in addition to Alburtus a vory fine feature picture, "The Mirage" starring Florence Vidor and a clever comedy and up-to-date News .reel. ... .. , I AT THE LIBERTY Come On Cowboys,", to be shown at the Liberty Theater Saturday con tains all the pep, punch and action any audience could wish for. , Dick Hatton, dare-devil cowboy, takes the part of the rough-riding hero and performs stunts with more than his usual daring recklessness. Marilyn Wills Is very appealing as the heroine and does some, splendid work opposite Hatton, while "Star1 I and Beverly," her two wonder ! horses show superior horse-sense In ! various performances of a startling nature.

Mr. Miller after giving as'sur unco of his abiding lutoreat In high school nffiilrs, admonished us to use whatever talents we poisesscil, to' do each task attempted a little bit bettor than It had boon alone; beforo. Always to give ftill value and a little mors for tho compensa tion, rocetved, said ho, was the road to success.

Mr. Miller's talk was Illustrated and enlivened by Interesting stories and was greatly oujuyud by tho students. The Justice Depariinctit gets very few appeals to be sent to the Atlnn ta penitentiary tor IB years. That. however, is Just what tleralfl Clian- raan wants, and In Ills ease It's easy to understand why. He Insists thut tho Yedoral owrnment only loaned blra to Connecticut to try hlni for murder, and he thinks a borrowed artlrlo should be returned In as good condition s It was borrowed In. Iln- sides. If he's banged, how can- ho serve out his long Atlanta sentence tor robbing the malls?- Tho Justice Department hasn't mude up Its mind. , , TODAY'S CROSSWORD PUZZLE IU, t0 ( " . , .
