TWENTY YEARS IN
PEN FOR BRADLEY

from the jury and I am convinced
that it had ample grounds for the
verdict. think Bradley had ample
time in which to get drunk after
the hold-up. He certainly would
have shot and killed the officer sent
to arrest him If he had had the
chance"
Bradley spoke of "the pre-con.
sidered course of Justice" Of the
rumor that jurors had doubts of
his age. of "encroachments on his
rights before your honor had cog
nizanoe of the case" Of the "preva.
lent disposition of all to call a lame
dog a bad dog" Of the system
(which seduoes the young and saps
the vitality Of the DID," of "civi-
LIKED city Of mothers. and daugh-
tiers praying in churches, and then
wondering that such as I swim out
into the cesspool OF iniquity." He
spoke of his attempts at jail break
as but the desperation of an in
jured man finding his only means
of proving an alibi disappeared.

President Goodal read his an
nual address, covering the work ac-
complished during the past year.
He appointed committee to rec
ommend names for directors for
the ensuing year. 1t reported rec
ommending that the present board
be continued In office. A resolu-
ton was unanimously adopted IA
voring the presidents freight rate
fight. A scheme proposed to secure
wooden mill was also approved
and the plan to invite all Inland
Empire merchants to Spokane was
also adopted.
ID. T. Ham indicted little poll
teal white washing into the pro-
ceedings by making motion to
thank the county commissioners
and the city council for their very
efficient" work during the past
year.
1t was announced that the pub
LEFTY committee had raised 100000
to advertise the town in the east
and that 1t would all be spent
within the next year. This amount
includes the $4,000 each from the
city and county.

Twenty years In the state penl-
Tertiary is the sentence meted out
to George Bradley this afternoon
by Judge Poindexter.
Bradley made an imprisoned APP.
peal for Ieniency, alleging that the
whole machinery of law and JUS
tioe had been bent to his convic-
ton of the crime of holding up the
Norden bar last May.
Judge Poindexter replied that the
jury had convicted hirr of the
crime and the court could not 90
behind the verdict. The court ex-
pressed the necessity Of protect
ing society against crimes which
held human life In the balance.
Attorney H. NJ. Brooks made the
first plea for Bradley alleging a
number of errors of the trial court
and also stating deductions from
the testimony.
Your argument might well be
addressed to the jury" said Judge
Poindexter, "but the verdict came
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1906-01-03

The Judge said that he would be-
glad to know of any palliating cirs
cumstances which would call fer
lspiency; the court did not relish
stern and harsh or unpleasant SEM
fences; it would prefer to condonea
but Bradley had evidently chosen
to be at warfare with and antagon.
istic to society; there might on
might not be some semblance Of
truth in Bradley's suggestions in
this city, but he WIS a man old
enough to understand that ha
should take his stand either III
harmony or at variance with estab<
hshed law and order; especially in
the west he could find support Of
some kind If he were right; that
essentially Bradley was a murders
er, ready to protect himself. He had
since been rebellious, unruly, ins
sulting to the jail officers and was
evidently carrying out the princk
pies he had adopted when he chose
the life of a social outlaw. IA
Sentence was then imposed. i

t F. RYAN. H. ROGERS. GUST BELMONT. ]. P. MORGAN

The cabal has just cracked its
whip in a little matter of $2O0,0O0.-
600. Having acquired the throne
1t was necessary to exhibit power.
All the street railroads, elevated
railroads and Subways in Greater
New York have oeen merged in a
company backed by Morgan, Ryan,
Rogers and Belmont. Mergers are
common, but this one tells the peo-
pie of New York and all the finan-
ciers of the country that this new
monopoly has money so controlled,
so tied up, that no combination of
capital could be formed to compete
with this mammoth transportation
monopoly.
This is power; power greater
than Roosevelt's. And here is the
way of it:
Morgan now controls the New
York Life, with it's allied banks
and trust companies. He has his
fingers on all the dollars of the
steel trust and all the dollars of
the men interested in that trust.
Ryan owns the Equitable and
controls its allied banks and trust
companies.
Rogers has taken over the great
Mutual, with its allied banks and
trust companies, and Is backed by
Standard Oils hundreds of mil
lions.
Belmont is the agent in America
of the Rothschilds, the money lords
of Europe.
Consider we'll the kings of Ameri-
ca and their power!
