WEDNESDAY,
LET JUDGMENT BE WITHHELD
The indictment of E. L. Elliott today on a charge of
malfeasance in office comes as a distinct blow-to Klam
ath county and its people. Coming as it does almost on
the eve of his induction into office as distinct attorney,
it places the accused man under a serious handicap,
and one which it will be hard for him to overcome for
the time being, at least. .-
With the utmost sincerity, the Evening Herald urges
that the spirit of fair play prevail; that people generally
withhold their opinion as to Mr. Elliott's guilt or inno
cence until he has been accorded a fair and impartial
trial by jury.
The deliberations of the grand jury are of necessity
secret in their nature. All of the evidence which was
given and all which might have transpired behind those
locked doors may never become known. The indictment
simply means that the grand jurors had reason to delieye
that a crime has been committed and that sufficient evi
dence was produced to convince them that Mr. Elliott
should be held for trial. ' ,
It is indeed unfortunate that the newly appointed dis:
trict attorney should bear this added burden when he
takes office. In fairness to all, he should, be accorded
a speedv and impartial trial. ' ,
- The Evening Herald is frank to say that it did n6t
.approve, of his appointment to'that office. But having
been appointed, The Evening Herald stood ready to
support him just so long as he proved himself an able,
fearless and unbiased prosecutor. "' " vr
