Is ]. N. Jones
A PoIygamyst?
Alleges Charge Is Trumped Up
Affair Designed for No
Good Cause.

The friends of Captain ]. N. Jones,
and there are many, are indignant that
the charge Of polygamy has been
lodged against him. The fact is he has
always been considerably more respect
ed than his first wife ever was, and it
is generally believed that the charge
is trumped up affair designed for no
good reason. He now occupies cell
in the city Jail at Portland. He was
was arraigned in the municipal court
yesterday. He entered plea of not
guilty and his case was continued over
until today. When placed under ar
rest his bond was fixed at $500.
Mr.. Jones allegations, and locally
they have always been understood as
facts, are that his wife left him six
years ago, at which time he began pro-
ceedings for divorce. The woman was
then in Seattle, Mr.. Jones claims.
Learning from her attorney that she
intended to get divorce, the deserted
husband dropped his case, as he only
wanted legal separation, little caring
how the hateful bonds were severed.
Later he received notice that Mrs.
Jones had obtained divorce. Three
years ago he married his present wife.
The captains claims are substantiated
by claim that since having been noti-
fed of the divorce he had occasion to
dispose of some property and deed re-
leasing her right to same was signed by
his first wife in her maiden name.
Nelson Jones, as he is familiarly
known, is about as mild hammered and
respectable a person as can be imag-
ined, and those who are close to him
are firmly convinced that he will never
be convicted of the grae charge
lodged against him. He is brother
of B. F. Jones representative from
Lincoln county, and is widely known
in this section. His home has been at
Astoria for many years, and no one in
the city Is more respected.

THE LIE WAS GIVEN
BY A MISS0URIAN-
In the ZeigIer RequisitiOn Hearing
In New York


Albany, n. Y. Dec. THE requisi-
ton of Gov. Dockery of Missouri upon
Gov. OdeIl for the extradition to that
state of William Zeigler of New York
city upon an indictment in Cole coun-
ty, Missouri, on the charge of furnish
ing funds for the bribery of Missouri
legislators in connection with baking
powder legislation, was the subject of a
hearing before the Governor to-day.
The Missouri authorities were repre-
sented by Attorney General Crow and
Judge L. B. Harvey of Missouri. and
Sheriff Smith of Cole county. Mr..
Zeigler was present in person, and his
counsel were John NJ. Bowers, Delaney
Nicoll, Edward Lauterbach, William ].
Underwood and John D. Lindsay.
Mr.. Bowers first demanded to know
upon what dates the Missouri author
tiles alleged Mr.. Zeigler was in the
state of Missouri and committed the
alleged crime. Upon blank dates in
March, 1901" replied Attorney General
Grow.
Mr.. Bowers read the affidavit of Dis
trict Attorney Brown of Cole county,
asserting that Mr.. Zeigler was in that
county on blank date in March, 1901.
we propose to show" said Mr.. Bow
ers, that Mr.. Zeigler never was in
that county in his life, and the swear
ing out of this warrant was an afro
cious crime against the liberty of a
citizen, an attempt to use the sover-
e1gn power of two states to bring this
man into the state of Missouri, where
they can try him on any charge they
please"
Attorney General Crow then arose
and repealed Indignantly what he call
ed an insult to a sovereign state, it's
chief executive and its prosecuting Of
ticers.
II do not know the gentleman who
makes this charge" he said, "but
deem 1t my duty to my state and to
myself to declare his statement as false
as h"
Are you ready to try out the date
of March?" retorted Mr.. Bowers.
A, long wrangle then took place as
to whether it was necessary for Mis-
souri, to allege exact dates.
Gov. Odell decided to confne the
hearing to dates.
incidentally it appeared also that an
entry of Mr. Zeigler's name on the
register of the Southern Hotel in st.
Louis figures in the case. Mr.. Bowers
declared that they would show this to
be a forgery.
Mr.. Lauterbach then read a very for
NAL long answer from Mr.. Zeigler, in
which he declared the charges against
him were inspired in a considerable
measure by personal enmity and by
opposition to his efforts to prevent the
use of alum in baking powder.
Testimony was then introduced to
show that Zeigler was not in Missou-
ri in March, 1901. and by the Missouri
people to show that he had been.
Gov. Odell asked for briefs, which
will take a month to be furnished,

NEGRO FOUND DEAD.
White Man Suspected of Murder in
Coffee County.

Douglas, Ga, Dec. 7.-Saturday the
dead body of Ephraim Paulk, a we'll
TODD colored farmer. residing eight
miles from Douglas. was found in the
woods. near his home. Upon the re-
turn of Coroner Eugene Merrier. the
following facts in the case were OBJ
tanned:
Reese Barnes. white, had split a lot
of rails for Paulk. Friday morning
Barnes called up Paulk to go out and
count the rails and make a settlement,
as he (Barnes) wanted to catch an
early train for Waycross. That was
the last seen of Paulk alive.
About 10 o'clock the same morning
Barnes returned to Paulk's house
and asked his wife if he had returned.
His failing to return that day or night
caused his wife to organize a search
ing party, and the body was found
covered over with lightwood knots,
showing the neck nearly cut in two,
and the head beaten to a pulp with
the eye of the AK which was found
nearby bloody, and recognized by an
other person as Barnes ak, used in
bis work.
Barnes cannot be found, and Coroner
Merrier and Sheriff Sutherland are
authority for the statement that the
circumstantial evidence at hand points
to Barnes as the guilty man. The
negro was reared near where he lost
his life, and was known as peaceable,
laW-abiding and hard working.

that conditions are such as to demand
the negro party the declaration
continues:
When in the course of political af-
fairs, it becomes necessary for any
race to sever it's connection with polit-
ical parties in order to preserve it's
existence, it is wisdom to call upon
all peoples Immediately concerned for
aid. We, therefore, call upon all races
and classes for aid and moral support,
not only in organizing a separate par
ty in opposition to whisky and cocaine,
but in remonstrances and petitions to
the powers that be for the enactment
of such laws as will suppress the evils
com0lained of. We call upon our
brethren in the states which have dis
franchised them, to meet en- masse, to
organize and petition their respective
legislatures for the passage of laws
to protect them against negro baudy
houses run by negro women, cocaine,
whisky, and peona ge."

NATURALIZATION FRAUDS

Induce the Advice That the Gov
eminent Assume Charge.
Washington, Dec. THE annual re-
port of the Attorney General of the
United States calls attention to the
naturalization frauds disclosed during
the last year in every section of the
country, and says that every honest
citizen is deeply concerned in repelling
ana preventing dishonest claims to
mat high right. He therefore recon-
mends the enactment of fresh legisla-
uon, placing naturalization entirely
under the jurisdiction of federal
courts and the supply of naturaliza-
ton papers with the federal govern
ment.
The Attorney General calls attention
TO appropriation of 100000 for the en-
ployment of special counsel to conduct
proceedings under the various trust
and interstate commerce laws, and
says that it has become highly i'm
portant that this appropriation should
De available for the enforcement of
laws of the United States generally,
ana especially those relating to public
iands, postal offenses and naturaliza-
uon frauds. He urges the extension
ol the time period in statutes of linn
latlon affecting cases against the gov
erhment TO five years.
