Washington, April Sat the opening
of the Pollard Breckenridge trial TODAY
referring to the colonel's statement thar
he had made no protestations of love to
Miss Pollard on the occasion of that
momentous carriage ride, when seduction
is alleged to have occurred, Mr.. Wilson
asked him when he first began to talk to
her affectionately.
Il never did make protestations of love.
l talked to her kindly, encouragingly.
when she was depressed; endeavored to
get her to do something to make a place
in the world for herself. l spoke sslic-
itously to her. particularly when | first
learned that she was pregnant by mt:
having interest in her which a maj,
might for a young unmarried woman
who had such circumstances in her life,
for which he felt that he was in a
measure responsible, since their lives had
become interwoyen.'
There were no expression of affec-
tion?"
There were expressions of affect.onat
interest, but not such as could be con-
strued into an intimation that our rc-
lationS could be on any different basis
than they were"
Then it was a result of business inter.
est for her welfare?'
"ExpreSSions of kindly interest"
"Were these expressions which might
be- understood by her to be. expire s>io Is
Of love-
Col. Breckenridge wished to draw the
distinction carefully between expressions
and demonstrations. He said there was
,n{hs,r lrt ,,rf,nf r,r1nN,t rltn,r ~,
their part of their relations: that they
went to houses of a certain character for
a certain we'll understood purpose. and
they stayed there such a time as their
pleasures and necessities demanded.
Il took her in my arms and kissed her.
There we've all the accomplishments of
, such a relation. which was carried out
not coldly or brutality"
There were no expressions of love on
her part?"
Il could not say that. She was at
! times very demonStrative; at times other
wise"
Your relations were those Of lust
rather thar love-
N would not say that, for we met
often at times when physical intercours"
VAS impossible. She was a young woman
Of colloquial talents, sprightly and inter
esting.'
Again Mr.. Wilson led the colonel IL re-
peat the distinction he drew between the
injury to the young man and the des'rus-
ton of Il young woman from illicit rela-
lions.
"And do you think he asked, that
a man is under obligations to prevent the
destruction of a young woman?"
Most assuredly | do. and if he does
not he should be punished. l have had
my punishment and am trying to take
it without complaint"
The colonel said that he never agreed
to marry Miss Pollard and fatty contra
dicted Mrs. Blackburn's testimony.
The crosS-examination was concluded
| and the colonel was turned over tn his
lawyers for redirect examination. Be-
fore court adjourned the judge permitted
the Principals and witnesses to leave and
then roasted the spectators for their
morbid curiosity. He said they had been
on trial for their dccency and had been
found guilty of indecent conduct. They
reminded him of buzzards sitting OH .
fence waiting for a alex horse to die.

Letter From a Senator.
TOLEDO, Or, March II

TOLEDO, Or, March II.
EDITOR JoURNAL.-Geuts: Being q
reader Of your valuable ONE CENT
JOURNAL and In sympathy with your
efforts, wish to call your attention to
what seems an error, under date OF
March 8, 1894, in your paper under title
Of "In the Right Line" You credit
the State Agricultural college with an
appropriation of $50, 226, when it should
only be $30,32 AS senate bill 80, orig
inally asked for $4,000 for college build
ings, 500, 900 for experimental buildings
and 81 4,226 for balance now due on de-
ficiency fund. In view of hard times
the friends of the institution amended
the bill, leaving of the experimental
appropriation of $4,000, making the
sum total $3O,326.
l see you quote an exchange ,saying"it
would be better to give this appropria-
tion to assist county schools" of course
that is an open question, yet the last
legislature was fully advised that the
general government had appropriated
to the state in lands and money vast
sum, aggregating a fund of $4,000 per
year, conditioned on the state furnish
ing all necessary buildings, and our leg
lature passed an act years ago accepting
this fund, unconditionally and irreyo-
cably; therefore, the Legislature was not
considering the question suggested by
your "exchange," but the one suggest
ed and acted upon was, does IL pay to
be true to the contract our ancestors
made, in accepting the trust from the
general government, and also encour-
age agricultural education, with its
many varied benefits to our common
wealth. There were only two dissent
ing votes in the senate, and not one in
the house. Every member voted for
the bill, with absent 5, making a grand
vote of 83,in the two houses for the bill,
and l believe 1t was right.

Proanact Oaucua.

A lively caucus of Republicans was
had in Prospect precinct last night at
the tabernacle. The meeting was
called to select candidates for delegates
to the county convention. Geo. Cans
was chosen chairman and M. g. Starr
secretary, Ray Farmer acting as assist
ant.
After some debate 1t was decided
that candidates should be nominated
and then voted upon, one at time,
and those receiving majority of votes
cast should be elected. Several ballots
thus became necessary for the election
of each delegate, and it was soon real
lied that with the remarks to be made
and the fun had on the side the meet
ing might last till morning. Many
were there simply for the fun there
was in 1t, others for blood, and some
few for real business, and 1t Is thought
all got what they wanted.
At II o'clock five delegates out of the
eleven had been selected, and as the
crowd began to thin out, 1t was decided
to put up the remaining six by COM
promising three on side and electing
all by acclamation. This was dCne,
and at 1l:30 o'clock the work was COM
pleted, with the folio wing delegates:

The One Hoss Shay.

The peculiar feature of the "one.hoss
shay" was, "built in such wonderful
way" that IL had no weakest part" "
The weakest partn of a woman is in
variably her back, and "female weak
nesses" are only too common. With
the use of DIR. Perce's Favorite Pre-
scIiption, this may be avoided, and
women may be comparatively as strong
as their brothers. Prolapus, intiama-
ton, liberation, periodical pains, leu,
corrhea, dragglng-down sensations, de-
bility, nervousness, sleeplessness, des-
pondency, are only IA few of the
symptoms of weakness of the the female
organs which the "Favorlte Prescrip-
ton" is warranted to remove.

CITY HALL AGAIN.


Duncan reported on Hutchins Il
Southwick that the bill be reduced In
amount to the sum of $l27920.
Contractor Southwick was invited to
address the council. He stated that
an error of seventy thousand brick had
been made in making up the estimate
1t was not his business to inquire with
in cent of how much stone sub. con.
tractors had delivered.
Here Albert made very fine point
that this report of Duncan's was not a
report prepared by the committee. It
was prepared by Duncan. The com.
mlttee never met. IL had not consid.
cred any report. Albert said il mil
lion brick were paid for oyer the con
tract, the city could not lose cent. In
the matter of interest the contractors
were out, 1t was not the kind of a
contract he had favored. He had not
voted for the city hall. But he was In
favor of the city keeping faith on It's
contract. The city was protected. In
specter Boothby would not let any
poor material get into the building.
Dnncan said he was put In an EN-.
barrassing position. 1t was the coun-
cil's business TO know about these
matters. 1t was the city's business to
know whether the city owed the con-
tractors $1,000 or $4,000.
Gray objected to the report as 1t was
not drawn up by the committee.
Kay said IL was the right OF the peo.
pie to know how much material and
work was paid for. 1t was proper to
scrutinize these bills and the architect
was paid $1,000 to make these estimates.
He asked whether the city had an in-
spector and what was he getting? He
had heard there were two. lie would
like to know.
