KILLS WOMAN AND HIMSELF

The Humboldt Star. says that
William Mathcrs, formerly AGAR in
spcctCr at Inlay, shot and killed q
woman known as May Fisher short
ly after ) o'clock Tuesday morning
and then turned the revolver on
himself, firing a bullet INTO his
right side, and died almost instant
ly. The tragedy took place at a
house known as 1.-The Paint Shop"
in the redlight district and there
were no witnesses.
According to the story told by
the other inmates of the house,
Mathcr had been there some time
in company with May Fisher anu
she accompanied him to the doorito
bid him good night. They. talked
at the door minutes few Marhcr
sccmcl to be urging the woman
to leave with him, but they did not
raise their voices as if Guarrcling.
Then the shooting was heard, six
shots being fired in quick success
sion. Five Of the bullets entered
the woman's body, three Of the
wounds being close together. The
inmates of the house were SO badly
frightened that they did not go to
the front door, but one OF them
ran out at the rear door and meet
ing a paS3crby told what had hap
pcncd. Physicians Wree called, but
their services were not needed as
the man and woman were dead.
The body of the woman lay in the
hallway, just inside the door. Half
way from the door along the walk
leading to the gate was Mathcr's
body, in sitting posture, his back
against the railing Of the walk.
The revolver lay few feet from
Mathcr's body.
An inquest was held, but no evil
dencc throwing any particular light
on the tragedy was brought out.
The woman's right name was Mary
Louise Fisher; her age was about
% y, ar3 and her home was in Mar
iposa county, California. Mather
was native Of Ohio about 25 years
old. His infatuation for the woman
and jealousy is the only known mo-
tive for his murdcr0us act.

In a recent speech in New York
George w. Perins. late partner of
j. p. Morgan, said that Governor
Hughes was put forward in 1908
by w all street to represent the re-
publican party's position on the
trust question:. and and that
Governor Hughes in his speech at
Youngstown. Ohio, Construed the
republican promise to amend the
antitrust law as follows:
"ln our progress we must avoid
false steps. Ours must be the rule
IF reason" etc.
Congress refused to lrgalizc
reasonable or any other kind Of
monOpOlies, so Governor Hughes
was put on thu supreme bench nd
helped twist the law to make it
conform to the trust idea Of what
the republican promise meant.
Add to Mr.. Perkins significant
remark The further fact that
Hughco bitterly opposed an income
tax, and his qualifications as Tafts

is this: At present it represents,
roughly, 5 per cent of the capital
assets of our community; this pro-
portion Of the whole belongs to
the nations creditors. But if
prices suddenly doubled from any
cause it is clear that the debt
would then represent q per. cent
of the assets of the country, and
the prnprietors of the consolidated
debt would, although still mort.

really reduced the burden of the
national debt as though with prices

that is why Jevons described the
Use in prices in the "sixtit s" as
violation Of the national debt.
That debt represents a portion of
the wealth and the products of the

If steel and wheat and wool

ishpd.
10 the case Of great debtor
communities, am thinking of the
American and Canada prairie
states, of the ncw proprietary body
in Ireland who pay their fixed
installmcnts by selling produce for

in all these cases the relief
afforded by the advance Of prices
is to them as the da awning of a

and think | am not far wrong in
estimating that the advance since

the whole obligation of her annual
