MURDER CHARGED
ALASKA MINING MAN
Is HELD IN SEATTLE
Said to Have Killed Wife i'm Order to
Gain Possession of Valuable
Property.

SEATTLE, Aug. 31.-Charged
with the murder of his young wife
last winter, whose body he buried in
the basement of cabin at Nome, dis
interring it in the spring and cutting
it into three parts and afterwards
cremating it, Lee H. Johnson, well
to do mining man of Nome. was ar
rested here today on a warrant from
Nome. Johnson admits dismember-
ing the body but says his wife COM
mitted suicide ana requested a secret
burial. She left all her property to
him.
Johnson married Belle Gilchrist, a
young society woman of Butte, Mont,
in the spring of 1905, and took her
to Nome. She disappeared from
Nome the same year. Johnson said,
to go to Seattle. Relatives in Butte
and Mrs. H. B. Hedges, a cousin liv-
ing at Port Blakely, received letters
regularly from Nome purporting to
be dictated by Mrs. Johnson. John
son came out from Nome on three
occasions and each time told rela-
tives in Butte that his wife was well
and happy and having her power of
attorney had come to Butte to dis
pose of her property and get the
money The suspicious of the rela-
tives were aroused year ago. John
son lived here with a woman named
Cora Tasch, who today admitted she
married Johnson in Omaha in 1902
and few months ago had gone be-
fore notary and sworn she was Belle
Gilchrist, wife of Johnson, and sign
ed a revocation of the power of at
torney issued by Johnson's wife to
him shortly after their marriage in
order that new power of attorney
might be given vesting him with abso-
Lutte power over all her property.
Johnson will be taken to Nome in a
few days.

EXHIBIT AT SEATTLE.

Yakima fruit growers should take
the opportunity to make a credita-
BILE exhibition at the Western Wash
ington fair at Seattle the coming
week. The Horticultural Union is
endeavoring to get together an ex-
hibit to be sent there and with this
in view invites fruit growers to send
TO them such specimens as will be
a credit to this section. Peaches,
early apples. pears and nice speci-
mems OF winter apples that are sur
ficiently matured and colored to look
we'll are especially desired, and if left
at the Unions warehouse will be
shipped to Seattle. The fruit should
be packed in two layer boxes and
each specimen wrapped. OF course
care should be taken to see that the
fruit is as near perfect as possible
and free from blemishes. Growers
will be given credit for any fruit
they may send in for exhibition.
Fruit intended for this exhibit must
be at the warehouse not later than
Saturday afternoon.
Fruit vendors in Seattle state that
the people there demand Wenatchee
fruit and in nine cases out of ten re-
ceiye Yakima fruit. This comes from
the fact that Wenatchee never loses
an opportunity to put in a display
wherever possible and keeps the name
of the valley ever before the public.
Yakima should take bunch and get
the credit justly due.

THE ANNEXATION VOTE.

That the territory west of the city.
larger in population than many mum
icipalities. does not desire annexation
to North Yakima is plainly shown by
the decided vote cast Tuesday at the
special election. when sc voted
against the plan and only 80 in favor.
The reason given by some of those
who voted against annexation was
that the step would not result in any
decided Improvements.
The annexation vote is a determin-
ed stand against advancement of civic
welfare. and can not be considered in
any other way. To extend the city lin
its would bring sanitary conveniences
much needed in. that section, would
result in better streets and in good
and substantial sidewalks: it would
bring police and fire protection. now
totally lacking. These and many
more changes would result with only
a slight increase in taxation.
Some little time should be given
to the enlightening of the people af-
fected regarding these possible bene-
fits and the proposition placed before
the voters of the same district again
at the time of the municipal election.

SHOULD GET EVERY VOTE.

Wesley L. Jones, Yakima's candi-
date for United States senator,
should he given every vote on the
republican ticket in Yakima county.
That he will get ninety per cent of
the votes of the county seems GER
tain, for Yakima appreciates the mer-
its of the ma who has represented
this district in congress and has PROV
en- an able and true representative
of the people of Washington.
Jones is known to the people of
this county: he is a man worthy of
the place, and no representations can
take away from his the confidence
that the residents and voters of the
Yakima valley have for him.
Were he not a local man and de-
serving of support from that side,
the fact that he is by far the most
able man in the field for the office
and is the real representative of the
people in the race against the Gin
terests and the system" would be
far sufficient to warrant every Yak
ina voter casting his ballot for him.
What's the use of making the per-
centage ninety of the total cast?
There is no reason why Yakima coun-
~ should not give him the full hun
bred per cent and every voter show
his absolute confidence in Wesley L.
Jones

TOO MUCH DURKIN.

A Methodist minister has camped
on the trail of one Jimmie Durlkin OF
Spokane, democratic aspirant for the
gubernatorial nomination, and his
scathing denunciation of that gentle
man fills long felt want.
Coarse and vulgar to the last ex-
IRENE. Durliin is an undesirable citi-
zen of the worst type. Having writ
ten to the president of the United
States an impudent letter, he uses
that to advertise his saloon bust
ness. He advertises his business on
his own tombstone in cemetery.
and now he advertises himself by
announcing his candidacy.
There is fortunately no danger of
Durkin's election. because the party
which has been unfortunate enough
to have its name linked to Durkins'
is not often successful in this state,
and because the citizens of the state
are of a high enough order of intelli-
gence to be unreachahle by his meth
DDS.
However. Durkin's offense in max
ing the high office of governor a
means for gaining more vulgar no
toriety for himself is an insult tc
every citizen of the state. and the
singing rebuke administered to him
by the Spokane clergyman is to be
appreciated, as a distinguished pub.

campaign upon plane as high as
Ankeny's case would allow. Mr.. Jones
addressed kindly and considerable
state.
Since that time Levi Ankeny has
overlooked no opportunity to abuse
and outrage the feelings of Wesley
L. Jones. He has sought to discredit
his record in congress. He has be-
Titled his candidacy for the senate.
He has flooded the state with coarse
falsehoods concerning Jones and
Jones' record. Ankeny's hired
clackers have accused Jones of down.
right dishonesty in the Palouse prof.
ect. They have misrepresented
Jones' position on every issue in this
campaign. They have tried to lie
the laboring men into opposing him.
Moreover. Levi Ankeny. over his
own signature. denounced Mr.. Jones
because the Yakima candidate asked
him, in spirit of fairness to the peo-
pie and the primary law. to agree to
abide by the expressed Judgment OF
a majority of the republicans of this
state.
Is it possible that Mr.. Ankeny and
his democratic allies believe that Mr..
Jones should cringe and fawn in the
presence of the man who has thus
outraged his feelings, abused him,
treated him with repeated discour-
tesy, denounced him, and piled upon
his good name a perfect deluge of
bought defamation? Mr.. Jones is not
made out of that kind of human clay.

THE OFFER TO GILBERT.

No disclosures of the methods used
by Ankeny's machine in the attempt
to secure his reelection over Wesley
l.. Jones has been more startling than
the statement of H. M. Gilbert that
he was approached by man repre-
senting Boss Crocker, the An<eny
manager, who suggested in a covert
way why the North Yakima-Topen-
ish man should support the Walla
Walla man.
Thinking that Mr.. Gilbert desired
to see the removal of Major Jay
Lynch from his position as Indian
agent. this representative said that II
Ankeny were re-nominated Major
Lynch would be removed. He found
that this did not bring any favora-
BILE response from Mr.. Gilbert.
He then urged that every demo-
cratic vote in Yakima county for An
keny meant five dollars in the demo-
cratic campaign fund, thinking that
Mr.. Gilbert was democrat and in
terested enough in that party's finan-
cial welfare to assist in the fight If
this money was in sight.
That he did not make other offers
Is poSsipiS uue W thS i"N' 'hoI WI .
Gilbert did not even give sign of
considering any of the propositions,
but let the man talk himself dry"
Mr.. Gilbert, who is an independent
voter. is for Wesley l.. Jones for SEN
ator He takes the position that ev-
cry man in Yakima county should
take, that Wesley l.. Jones is the kind
of a man that should represent the
state of Washington. Mr.. Gilbert's
truthfulness and absolute integrity
will be vouched for by nearly every
man of Yakima county.
What can be the verdict of the peo-
pie when he says that he has been APP
preached and asked to aid in the cleo
ton of Ankeny in order that he may
get a promised benefit?
