State Grand Jury

The following extracts from the
report of the legislative investigat-
ing committee is commended to the
careful attention of those who are
inclined to think grand jury in
vestigation of affairs in Chehalis
county a mere undertaking expedi-
ton:
The state has for years been sys-
tematically defrauded and the peo-
pie have lost millions of dllars by
the sale of state and timber lands for
grossly and ridiculously inadequate
consideration.
For five years an average daily
balance Of $4,000 state land money
has been enjoyed by the Capital Ma
tional bank, Olympia, and no inter-
est paid or bond required.
The Silver Lake Railway and
Lumber company, Cowlitz county,
has acquired immensely valuable
lands through queer procedure, and
taxes have not been collected.
BY stupid carelessness in 1908
the state lost indemnity land now
valued at 100000. The Weyer-
hausers now own it, purchasing II
from the Northern Pacific.
The present dental law is suscep-
tible of gross abuse and should be
amended.

Both Were Democrats

The Herald Is in receipt of a long
communication from Thomas Harlan,
the veteran editor Of Oakville, eulog-
izing Thomas Burke for United States
senator, which lack of space--and
Burke nthusiasm-prevents print
ing. The Herald confesses to a
slight confusion in the matter of the
selection of a senator by the stand
pat republicans. We hear our
friends on that side of the political
fence denOunce PoindeXter for hav-
ing once been democrat, and in
the same breath laud Burke, whom
the writer first saw as a candidate
on the democratic ticket for dele
gate to congress from the Territory
of Washington.
Now, the Herald, and legion of
its readers would like to be put right
on this somewhat veXed question,
and submits it to the Aberdeen
World, the position of that paper
being similar to that outlined above.
We will be obliged If the evening
paper will tell how long a time is
required for an apostate democrat to
become a full-fedged republican,
eligible to the pie counter. The ans
wer may be Of momentous import.
1t may decide that both Burke and
Poindexter are ineligible, or it may
conclude that the actions of Burke
since conversion have better attested
his fidelity to the Interests in con-
troll of the republican machine than
has those of Poindexter
At any rate, the definite settlement
of this question would greatly SIM
plify the discussion over those two
candidates, and, in the event of a
liberal view being taken, would re-
lieve the minds of a number OF
Gold" democrats who are in the
same boat with Poindexter. The re-
publicanism of Burke is of an ear
lier vintage, and his enemies are
wont to whisper that his conversion
was wrought by the eloquence of j.
J. Hill.

VIM. GOHL ON TRIAL
Continued from page one.)

immunity more than one prominent
citizen of Aberdeen, whose lives he
had threatened, became uneasy and
began to carry guns. During the
sailors strike in 1906, the residence
of w. b. Mack, manager of the Slade
Lumber Co., was ordered blown up
with dynamite, and the crime was
only averted by the presence of Mrs.
Mack, which caused the assassin to
weaken. 1t is expected the defense
will strenuously oppose the introduce
ton of the record of Gohl, and con-
tend that the evidence be confined
to the actual crime charged in the
mains to be seen, but it is certain
that he will receive an absolutely
fair trial and stand or fall on the
law and rules of evidence
He will be tried for the murder
of Charles Hadberg. That is the
original complaint filed, charges
this. Although Klingenberg has con-
fessed to killing Hadberg at Gohl's
behest. tn prosecution has not made
any changes in the complaint.
On the night of December %, Gohl
accompanied by Klingenberg and
John Hoffman, started down to In
dian creek in Gohl's gasoline launch,
Patrol. The men were induced to
make the trip, Gohl telling King
enberg that he had a piece of work
to do.
When we'll down the bay, Gohl,
without a word of warning, turned
and shot Hoffman through the body,
says Klingenberg. Hoffman begged
for his life and Gohl fired three
more shots from his Colts revolver.
He walked over the PROSTATE form
of Hoffman, who was still alive and
begging for mercy, and grasping the
dying man by the throat, placed the
muzzle Of the gun against his fore
head and pulled the trigger, blowing
out his victims brains.
He made Klingenberg assist him in
placing rope about the dead body
to which they tied an anchor and
threw it into the Chehalis river,
The two proceeded to Indian creek
where they spent the night in Had
berg's shack. The next morning
Gohl told Klingenberg unless he kill
ed Hadberg, he. Gohl, would kill
him. After breakfast, Gohl asked
Hadberg to row them back to the
launch. He seated himself IN the
stern of the rowboat ,Hadberg took
the oars and Klingenberg sat in the
bow. When near the launch King
enberg placed the muzzle of the gun
against the back of Hadberg's head
and shot him. He then fired anoth-
er shot to make sure of his work.
This body was also weighed down
with an anchor and thrown over
board. Gohl later told of his crime
and several weeks afterwards Had
berg's body was found where Coil
said he planted it.
Gohl was then arrested. Two
weeks ago Klingenberg returned
from Mexico where he had been ship
ped by Gohi and made a confession
which corroborated every bit of evil
dence the authorities had in their
possession.

Our old friend. J. e. Calder, of
Montesano. takes the blame for the
omission to place the Herald in the
corner stone of the new court house,
and this paper takes back the re-
marks made last week, with the un
derstanding that they were justified
by appearances. Mr.. Calder, acting
for the Masons of Montesanc, at
tended to the articles placed in the
receptacle, and the omission of the
Herald was simple oversight.

The Hoquiam Westinghouse

celebrated it's twenty-first birthday
yesterday, and the first anniversary
of the management of Editor John
son. During the life of the Washing
tOnian it has had but three publish
ers, O. NJ Moore, J. d. Dean and
Albert Johnson. and the three of them
have taken turn at it during its
brief career as daily. That the
Washingtonian has done it's part in
the development of Hoquiam and
Grays Harbor is we'll known, and
the Herald hopes that twenty-one
years from now it will see Editor
Johnson swinging down to the 'steen
story Washingtonian building in his
auto, about once in three months
to rake off his dividend from the
publication.

name, there was a conundrum. Each
guest had the privilege OF guessing

The one who guessed the largest
number of conundrums received the
first prize and the one who answered
the least received the consolation"

was no lack of conversation. After
tea, the prizes were distributed. games

War with Great Britain Is the remotest kind OF
