FINE AND PRISON TERM
REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAMSON
SENTENCED AT PORTLAND.
For Subornation of Perjury in Connec.
ton With Land Frauds in Oregon
Other Cases.

PORTLAND, Ore, October 14.-John
Newton Williamson, representative from
the second Oregon district, convicted of
subornation of perjury in connection with
land frauds in Oregon, was sentenced by
Judge Hunt in the United States court to-
day to serve ten months Imprisonment and
to pay fine of $500. He was also repri-
manded by the court for his failure to set a
good example in his exalted public position
Marion R. Riggs, formerly United States
commits ioner, was given an equal penalty
In the case of DR.. Van Gesner, convicted
of being fellow conspirator to suborn per
jury, the term of Imprisonment was, be-
cause of the defendants age and feeble
ness, reduced one-half and the fine was
doubled. Van Gesner was Williamsons s
partner in the sheep business.
Appeals are pending and stay of execu-
ton was made pending a further order of
the court. Meanwhile Representative Will
hanson will go free on his own recogn;z-
ance but a bond of 81, coo was required of
the other two defendants.
AS the term of Imprisonment is less than
one year the sentence must be served In
the county Jail.
