F|LPOT WILL HANG
At PEN|TENT|ARY
Unless Governor Hay lntervenes' He
Will Stretch Rope at States
Prison On Monday, August z.

Unless Governor M. e. Hay exer-
cises executive clemency in the case Of
Charles Filpot, he will be hanged at
the penitentiary on Monday, August 2,
for the expiation of the crime of muir
der committed three years ago. Sinc9
August, 1906, Fillpot has been in the
Spokane county Jail, and was this
week sentenced by Judge d. HI. Carey
to be hanged. Filpot's victim was Mes
Cole a rancher who lived about IA
miles below Spokane.
History of Case.
On the night of March %, 1906, Cole,
who lived with his brother in a cabin
on their ranch near the river, IA miles
below Spokane, mysteriously disap-
peared. He had been alone at the cabin
during the day, his brother having been
engaged in blowing for neighbor
some distance away, and not return
| ing to the cabin at night.
After the disappearance of Cole,
started on an overland trip to visit
! friends or relatives in another section
of the state, while still others were OF
the belief he found employment with
his team in another part of the county.
A fine team Of horses, in which the old
man took great pride, was missed from
the ranch the same night. They were
found, two or three days later in pos
session of man in Occur d'Alene city,
who claimed he had purchased them
at ridiculously low price. 1t was
then that the officers decided there had
been foul play, as Mes Cole had not
been seen, dead or alive.
After securing a description of the
man who had sold the horses in the
Idaho town, the officials took up the
search, and suspicion rested upon the
man, Charles Fi1pot, who was this
week sentenced to death Not until
| the following August, however, was
he arrested, and then he was found on
a wheat stack, stacking grain for a
header crew on ranch about 10 miles
from Lind, in Adams county.
Three or four weeks subsequent to
the disappearance of Cole his man
gled body was found in the river 20
! miles or more below his cabin and
not until then was the theory
that murder had been committed fully
established
When Fillpot was arrested he adj
mitted having a hand in stealing the
team, but claimed he had received
the horses from one Baker on the
| road north of town near the big
spring, and had driven the same night
| to Occur d'Alene, where he sold the
team and wagon. The officers were
never able to get a very accurate de-
scription of the accomplice, Baker
and they have always believed him
| to be a myth.

Christina, Queen Of Sweden, perhaps

years ago, but her spectacular career
is still of interest. Unique combina-

ferocity she gave up her crown for
the sake of her religious convictions,
and set about the assassination of her
friend, the Marquis Monaldeschi, with
equal fixedness of purpose.
Christina was the daughter of Gus

QUEER TRANSACTIONS

Muskogee, Okla, Feb. AT the
conclusion of the first day of the Sec
ond week of the town lot fraud investi-
cation it is evident the representatives
of the government are certain that
many indictments will be returned by
the grand jury.
The testimony Of the Tennessee wit
nesses proved to be revelation. One
of the twenty-five witnesses from that
state said:
'When I was subpoenaed by the
government to come to Muskogee I
did not know there was such town

HARTMAN FORMS ARMY
Discipline and Advancement to Highest
Rank Feature of Plan.

Portland, Feb. IAN Omaha spe-
cial to the Oregonian says:
''The most difficult problem that
confronts railway arrangements today
is the education and training of the
staff to fill positions.
This statement was made by Julius
Kruttschmitt, director of maintenance
and operation of all the Hartman
lines, in explanation, in part, of a new
plan of railway organization which is
being tried out on the Nebraska divis.
ion of the Union Pacific road. Under
the new scheme of organization, if it
proves successful, all of the 100000
employees will be transformed into an
army, each member Of which can as
pire with hope to the highest position
in the gift of the railroad for which
he works. In fact it is the purpose of
the Hartman management SO to train
this vast army that each private will
become fitted to fill the position next
above him.
To accomplish these purposes Mr..
Hartman has given carte blanche in
the way of necessary expenditures,
and his example in this respect must
of necessity have great influence upon
other railway arrangements.

SETTLER WINS POINT IN
RAILROAD LAND TEST CASE

Seattle, Feb. 1.-The Daily Times
says: The refusal of the federal court
at Tacoma to grant a plea in abate-
ment in favor of the Oregon & Califor-
MIA Railroad indicates that the first
trial of the issues involved in the al
legged refusal of the company to part
with its land grant at 49, so per acre,
will be tried in the state of Washing
ton.
Roy Minkler sued the company to
compel it to sell him acreage in Lewis
county, Washington, which is included
within the 'old Oregon and California
land grant," at the specified price of
81. 80 per acre. The company entered
a plea in abatement on the ground that
neither the Oregon & California rail
road nor the Southern Pacific compa-
ny, its successor, are Washington cor
porations
Judge Dietrich decided at Tacoma
that as the land is located in Washing
ton state the railroad companies must
come to Washington to stand trial
The case is Identical with that filed
in Portland by John L. Snyder more
than a year ago aaginst the same de-
PENDANTS. The Snyder case and all the
other actual settler suits in the federal
court at Portland have been CONSOLE
dated with the government suit and
canot be tried ahead of the government
suit
Therefore, the Minkler case at Taco
ma may be the first case involving a
construction of the railroad grant to be
decided and may furnish a precedent
for the cases at Portland. It will, in
all probability, be reached for dcei-
sion on the merits considerably ahead
Of the cases in Portland.
