California has a law that Idaho
should do we'll to follow if the
wholesale pardoning system is to
remain in force. There, life
prisoners who attempt to escape,
are by law sentenced to hang,
thus effectually putting quietus
on the escape or attempt to es-
cape. The only change in the
law in this state should be that
whenever any life termer is par
doned, the pardon board should
be hanged, for according to the
number of pardons granted this
year the pardon board should be
charged with being accessory to
the escape of a large number of
undesirables from the pen at

Now that Governor Hawley's
full cash value assessment plan
has been allowed to stand il
might be we'll for the citizens of
Cottonwood to begin figuring on
the question of bonding the town
to purchase the local water sys-
tenn and make it a municipal
plant. Under the present assess
ment valuation and with the
help of laws passed by the last
legislature the town can easily
bond for sufficient money to pur-
chase the water system and it
would be a decidedly good in
vestment. The expense of OPP
Grating a good gravity system,
such as we now have, is very
small while the earning capacity
of the system will increase each
year. Besides paying operating
expensesand interest on the bonds
the present monthly revenue of
the plant would go quite a ways
in defraying the current expens-
es of the village government and
would result in decreasing the
tax levy materially in years to
come. There is no time limit set
by the water company's fran
chise as to when the plant can
be purchased by the village SO

TRUST METHODS.
SpreCkelS Tells of Fight
With Sugar Bosses.
MAKES CRIMINAL CHARGES.
Bon of Pioneer Beet Sugar Man
charges That the Combines Men
Wrecked His Philadelphia Plant
to Force Him Out.

New York, July 15.-Representat1ve
Malby of the house committee which
Is investigating the American Sugar
Refining company asked Of Claude Au-
gustus Spreckels, son of the pioneer
beet sugar man, series Of questions
which were evidently intended to be
embarrassing. The aim Of Congress-
man Malby apparently was to show
that the independents, Of whom Mr..
Spreclsels has been the most aggres-
sive, used methods which were SIM
liar 30 those of the trust and that both
were out to get what they could out
of sugar. At one time 1t was evtfent
that Chairman Hardwick of the Uom-
mittee was not pleased with the tack
taken by Congressman Malby, as Mr..
Spreckels had been more or less put
on the defensive.
Mr.. Spreckels first told of how his
company, the Federal Sugar Refining
company, about a year ago shipped
about 10000 barrels of sugar round
the Horn to San Francisco, where the
price was 60 per cent higher than the
New York market William Haas,
wholesale grocer, offered to buy the
sugar at quarter of a cent less than
the market. but Mr.. Spreckels would
not sell. All the other wholesale gro
GERS, who were known as the Big
Six" wouldn't buy, although Mr..
Spreckels offered to dispose of the car
go at less than the market. Their ex-
planation was that Spreckels could
supply sugar to them only spasmodic-
ally, and If they bought they might be
punished by the trust. Finding all the
usual avenues for the disposal of a
sugar cargo closed to him, Spreckels
opened store and sold the sugar re-
tail He lost $4,000 on the venture,
but he succeeded in dropping the price
of San Francisco sugar.
Mr.. Spreckels said that he considered
the output of the California refineries
less today than before his fathers in
terests had passed to the American
Sugar Refining company.
The witness gave some additional
testimony of the troubles at his IA

and again he would have to cease
going with me, and when his baby
was born he said it made tie that
bound and he and his wife were
drawn closer together"
She said Beattie never told her II
anything happened to his wife he
wanted to marry her. II knew he
would not dfsplease his family by mar
rying me.
"After all this notoriety my family
will not take me back now" she half
sobbed, and "when l am out Of here
am going to faraway country"
Coincident with the discovery of al
legged discrepancies in Paul Beattie's
story OF his connection with the crime,
Henry Beattie from his cell urges the
detectives to pursue their investiga-
ton along other lines as diligently as
they pursued those that incriminated
me and you will soon clear me of sus-
picion"
Henry Beattie holds firm to his orig.
inal story that "a tall man with a
scraggy beard fred the fatal shot.
He appears confident that he can prove

that sent his young wife into eternity.

Sugar was burned to caramel by
sending up the steam too hot" he said.
"There were men there who had been
employed by the American Sugar Re-
fining company. An elevator was put
out Of business, some one crippling II
with beam; also the machinery was
broken. Barrels were marked with
the wrong weights. often az much as
thirty pounds less than the actual
amount of sugar they contained"
Mr. Malby brought out that although
the tariff had been removed there had
been no material difference in the
price of sugar to the consumer. Mr.
Spreckels tried to explain that when
the tariff was lowered the trust began
to operate. With free trade, Spreckels
said, sugar would be cheaper and that
about $15O,0O0,OOO would be saved to
the people Of the country. His COM
pany did not sell in western states, be-
cause the freight rates were prohibit
tive and 1t couldn't be done at profit.

STRENGTHEN CASE
Detectives Say Beattie Con-

AFFINITY MAKES STATEMENT.
Richmond Officials Declare Accused
Man Will Pay Extreme Penalty and
May Drag Others to Same Fate
Despite His Story.

Richmond, Va, July 25.-After re-
ceiving a letter from G. Dean Of 60
West Seventy-ffth street, New York
city, Beulah Binford, the affinity Of
Henry Clay Beattie, Jr, sent for the
detectives to visit her at the Henrico
county Jail. 1t is said she made a
statement which the officers will not
make public but which, it is intimated,
greatly strengthens the evidence in the
makes the case against Henry Beattie,
charged with the murder of his wife,
complete in every detail.
Rumors say that an eyewitness to
the crime on Midlothian turnpike had
been found, but detectives who in
vestigated say the party had passed
the scene of the crime after it was COM
mitted. Witnesses, however, have been
found who saw Beattie and his wife
standing in the road at the scene of
the crime shortly before it was COM
mitted.
"Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., is going to
the electric chair for financing the
murder of his wife. 1t is just ques-
ton of how many others he will take
with him." said a detective who has
investigated the murder 1--WE do not
believe Henry Beattie killed his wife,
but we do believe he had grown tired
of her and decided to have her slain
by hired assassin"
The two male prisoners spend their
time in reading novels and smoking.
Though the sorrow OF her baby's
death has long since passed, Beulah
Binford declared in her cell her love
for the babe which, bearing the name
of Henry c. Beattie, would have been
two years today, which is also the
seventeenth birthday of the girl who
on Friday last, barred everything in her
life and opened the way to the electric
chair for the man she loved.

Aged Sugar Man Tells of War With

swered the questions of the subcom-
mittee from the house sugar invest-
gators for more than two hours. The
committee went to him because he
was too weak to come tn the city to
take the stand. 1t was not until near
the end of the examination that he
showed that he was becoming tired.
Mr.. Arbuckle was insistent on one
point. the one that was chiefly respon-
sible for the congressmen's journey to
his home. 1t was that the termination
of his war with Havemeyer had been
the result of a slowly growing bitter
feeling. 1t was not, he emphasized
again and again, the outcome of an
agreement
He repeated that the Sherman anti
trust law was uppermost in his mind
anc that of Mr.. Havemeyer. He said
that he never got down on his knees
to the president Of the American Sug-
ar Refining company, and in his opin-
ion the only way to deal with Mr..
Havemeyer was to be ''as arbitrary as
he was" And he told a number OF
stories 30 illustrate his viewpoint
