Mcnamara SIeuth Pays Same
Money to Judge He Would
Have Given Juror.
MAYBE TRAP FOR BARROW
Labor lawyer VIII Try to Show That
Bert Franklin Was i'm Employ of
District Attorney During Dynamite
Trial.

Los Angeles, Calf. Mar Bert
Franklin, who pleaded guilty to in
fluencing Robert Balm, a Mcnamara
juror, was fined today $4,000 by Judge
Cahannis, sitting for Judge Willis.
The amount of the fine was exactly
the sum taken from him at the time
of his arrest, while talking in the
street with a prospective juror.
Assistant District Attorney Ford,
who had charge of this money turn
ed it over to Franklin who immedi-
ately paid the fine. Franklin was a
detective employed by the Mcnamara
defense.
Before his sentence Franklin told
newspaper men he was willing to
take his medicine, whatever 1t was.
II made mistake and I'm willing
to pay" he said.
There is much speculation regard
ing the probable effect that Frank
Inns plea will have on Clarence
Darrow's case. 1t Is believed that
Darrow's defense will allege that the
entire Franglin affair was a "plant''
by the prosecution to get Darrow.
Franklin repeatedly asserted that
he was not at any time in the en-
ploy of the district attorneys office
during the Mcnamara trial, but the
fact that the fine was the same am
cunt taken from him is causing much
comment.

FEBRUARY RAINFALL
BOON TO THE CROPS

March opens in Umatilla county
with prospects for a 1912 bumper
crop still further frightened due to
an unusually wet February. So wet in
fact was the past month that the ex-
cess rainfall for the wet season has
been boosted to more than two inches
and the ground in every section of
the county has been thoroughly soak
ed.
According to Official Weather OBJ
server Averill. the precipitation for
February was LII inches, whereas the
normal amount is only 1,47 His
record shows that on fifteen days of
the twenty-nine, rain to the amount
of OF of an inch or more fell while

No very cold weather greeted local
citizens during the month just past
and neither did they suffer from un-
seasonable warmth. The official
thermometer shows that the maxi
mum temperature fro the month was
reached on the 10th when the mer-
curry arose to the SO point while the

London, Eng, March 1.-Employes
of all large industrial firms and rail
roads were today notified that the
companies may be forced to suspend
operation, because of fuel shortage
This would lay off four million wage
earners unless the coal strike Is speed

The situation here is already acute

are standing pat and all hope of i'm

Premier Asquith is pessimistic over

to induce the operators to yield.
The government today ordered
troops to be in readiness for strike
service. No disorders have been re-
ported thus far.

LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL
WILL NOT DEBATE

Much to the regret of both stu
dents and faculty, Pendleton high
school will not participate in inter-
scholastic debate this year and will
thus not have an opportunity to up
hold the splendid record made dur
ing the past three years. Owing to
the withdrawal of the schools in the
eastern oregon district of the state
league except the Pendleton and
Prineville schools and the desultory
manner in which the management of
this district has been handed Supt.
Landers and Principal Hampton have
decided that it would be an injustice
to the team to ask it to enter the con-
tests this late in he season.
The local team has been organized
since last fall and the members have
been impatiently awaiting arrange
ments whereby they could commence
upon their work. School after school
withdrew because of deficit from
preceding years and Pendleton was
paired with some other school, only
to have all plans upset by the refusal
of that school to compete. Finally,
the team has received word that it

the teams in all other districts have
already secured an advantage by par
ticipation in several debates. Start
ing at this date upon their work
would mean that the local boys would
have to enter the semi-finals with
| hardly any preparation and parents
as we'll as the school authorities have
refused to allow the boys to compete
for the championship under this
handicap.
For the past three years, Principal
Hampton has sent his team to Eu-
gene to compete in the finals for SUI
premacy, a record unequalled by any
other school in the state. and general
! disappointment will be felt that con-
ditions are such as to prohibit the at

THOUGHT SHE WAS COWBOY.
landlords Defense Acquits Him of
Selling Drink to Girl

Eastono, Pa.-After setting up a
novel defense. Clarence Klotz, pro-
prietoor of hotel at Second and New
streets, South Bethlehem. was ac-
quilted before Judge Stewart in court
here on the charge of having sold in
toxicating drinks to minors.
The prosecution grew out of the
death of Florence Vogel, 17-year-
Allentown girl, who, with Edith Leh,
also II, of Catasauqua, claimed they
were served with drinks at Klotz's
hotel on Halloween. The Vogel girl
who became intoxicated, committed
suicide after leaving the hotel by
jumping from the New street bridge.
Klotz testified that the girls wore
mems clothes, cowboy hats, which hid
their long hair, and had their faces
blackened, and he had no way of tell
ing who they We're or how old they
were.
