TRIES TO KILL
GUARD, CAUGHT
County Jail Prisoner Attacks
Father Of Sheriff is
Soon Recaptured

Knocking down his aged guard with
a heavy shovel, Matt Petranovich
made his second unsuccessful attempt
to escape from the county Jail Thurs
day afternoon. A. Payette, father OF
Sheriff Edward Payette was the VIC
tim of Patranovich's wrath, and as
the result of the incident, the prison
er who was recaptured only a few
seconds later, is in solitary confine-
ment.
One of the facts concerning Petrano-
vich's attempt to escape was made
known when Payette's wound was be-
ing dressed. The guard had recently
placed a roll of paper beneath his
hat band. and it was this that saved
him from more serious injury. At ID

MOCK TRIAL TO
BE SENSATIONAL
Case Of State Versus Brice
to Be Tried Before Pyth-
ian Court Tonight

"The State versus Jennie Brice,
is the title of the most important
case ever tried before the Knights
of Pythian tribunal, and tonight in
the presence of large crowd of
inquestive spectators, the defendant
will go through the mock procedure
of trial.
The event is looked upon by mem.
bers of the order as something wor.
thy of more than common attention
inasmuch as many prominent mem
bers of the legal fraternity in Alb
erdeen will participate in the event
Just who will be the victim is al
present more a matter Of guess work
but certain it is that the trial will be
enlivened by. plenty of humor, a real
tragicomedy.
The story Of Jennie Brice is well
known to readers of a certain popu
lar weekly. 1t deals with the murder
of Jennie Brice, an actress, who was
murdered by one Philip Ladley, q
playwright. Really, it is Ladley who
will stand trial, for Jennie has pass
ed beyond the power Of early con
viction. The name "Brice" was used
because of the title of the story
which recalls to mind one Of the mos
sensational criminal stories ever writ
ten.

EXPERT ENGINEER
ADVISES COUNCIL
Portland Man Believes Heron
Street Bridge Could
Be Strengthened

To spend at least $4,000 in repair
work for the Heron street bridge, is
the substance of advice in a recon-
mendation offered the city by J. B. c..
Lockwood, consulting engineer at
Portland, and from whom advice has
been solicited by the city council.
Mr.. Lockwood, in a lengthy report
rendered the city advises the installa-
ton Of new end lifts and braces. In
his report the engineer says that by
expending approximately $4,000, the
structure can be placed in fairly good
shape. Concluding he says:
Il have considered carefully the
question of putting new foundations
under the bridge. but it seems to me
this course would not be advisable.
This work would be very expensive
job and would put the bridge out OF
commission for long time. The
bridge is not worth spending very
large amount of money on and it would
practically be an impossibility to put
in foundations which would be adapt
ed to a new bridge later on unless the
new bridge should be of similar type
to the present one, and to build q
bridge of this type at Heron street la
ter or would be absurd.
"The proper course for the city te
follow, it seems to me, is to fix the
bridge in q good and substantial man
ner and a. cheaply as possible and
when the proper time arrives to build
q new bridge Of greater width and oi
better type"

Citizens Wake Up, and RevO|utioniStS Are De-
feated at Elections Saturday by More
Than -Four to One
BOSSES WERE PLAYING GRATING GAME
Faithful Socialists Who We're Deceived Are
Very Indignant Over What They Are Pleas
ed to Term Reasonable Practices

The attempt of the leaders of the
socialist party to secure control of
the public schools, with the avowed
purpose of using the schools as a
propaganda for the revolutionary doc
trines advocated by the extremists
of that party, was the means OF
bringing out the largest vote ever
polled at a school election in Aber-
deem, more than 1900 votes being
cast.
Although the total vote was but
trifle over one-third of the reg
istered voters, the socialist attempt
was defeated by a vote of more than
four to one, the vote standing as fol.
lows:
Dan Pearsall, 1853; E. p. Crary
,147S; J. c. Smith, 1850; Joe Thomas,
376; Charles 1vana, 331, and H. P.
Ash, 354. The latter three were the
socialist candidates.
The result shows that nearly one.
half the voters of the socialist party
refused to follow their leaders and
failed to vote at all, or voted against
the injection of party politics into
the public schools. The vote in Alb
erdeen for Debs at the general ell
ection was 500. while lthe highest
for school director was but 376.

party that the leaders we're not act
ing in food faith in this effort, but
were simply working up little ex-
ictement in order to shake down the
faithful for few 'blood covered"
dollars. They. reasoned that If the in
tention was really to capture the
schools, the method of procedure
would have been entirely different;
that instead of announcing that in
tention, and publishing broadcast the
fact that they desired the control
for the purpose Of having socialistic
doctrine taught in the schools, Sc
cret campaign was the only method
that gave promise of success, and
should have been adopted.
This plan would have had many
chances to win. through the custom
ary apathy Of Aberdeen voters at
school elections, at which there is
rarely more than 300 or 400 votes
cast. The Herald was informed this
morning by an intelligent member of
the socialist party that this abortive
movement was very apt to cause ser.
ious dissatisfaction among the voters
who are inclined to feel that they
have been worked
They allege that the scheme was
concocted by the bosses for the sole
purpose of petty graft; that secret
meetings were called, at which the
rank and file were assured that the
schools could and would be captured,
but it required a little money. The
faithful came through literally, the
candidates worked sincerely only to
find that the leaders had thrown away
