INVOLVES GIRL CHUM
IN MANY ESCAP AIDES
Miss Warrington UndergOeS
Severe DISCRIMINATION.

San Francisco, Aug. 14.-Judge Van
Fleet cast sinister shadow over the
white slavery trial Of Maury Diggs
and Marsha Warrington revealed the
depravity of herself and her younger
chum, Lola Norris, in words that
seemed to appeal to the jury Of staid
fathers Of young girls. The judge
asked the Jury If any member had
held conversations with Diggs or
Caminetti or anyone connected with
the case, as an admission Of the Of
Tense would be less serious now than
later in the trial. The jury appeared
stunned for a moment and then an
swered the judge with a chorus of
noes"

ney Coghlan. The gossips of Sacra-
mento had told of Marsha Warning

ner on the stand suggests the sophis-
ticated beauty which is known in ths
life of the tenderloin Of small city.
But everyone, including her own par
ents, believed Lola Norris was an in
nocent girl until she had been be.
trayed by Caminetti under promise of
marriage. Yet Marsha Warrington ad-
mitted that both she and her chum
had taken frequent trips to neighbor-
ing towns with Diggs and Caminetti
and had Illicit relations with them.
She told of champagne suppers with
Diggs in his Office of state architect
in the capitol building. She also re.
lated the details of visits with Diggs,
Caminetti and Miss Norris to San
Francisco, Stockton and other places.
when the men registered under as
sumed names with the girls registered
as their wives. She said she and
Lola knew that the men were mar
ried, but they believed from what was
from their wives
These admissions established the
contention of the defense that the
witness and Lola Norris had had rela-
tions with the defendant and Drew
Caminetti on several occasions before
the famous Reno elopement, which
resulted In the Diggs-Caminetti In
dictments.
Though Judge Van Fleet allowed
this line of questioning that drew out
the story of the former relations of
the quartet, he declared he did so
only to permit the defense to estab.
lish their points with reference to the
fifth and sixth counts of the indict-
ments Of Diggs, which deal with per-
suasion and coercion. The court add
ed that insofar as the white slave
act is concerned he would instruct the
Jury that the relations of the quartet
previous to the Reno elopement had
absolutely nothing to do with the
first four counts of the indictment.

Entered at the Mt. Vernon, o., postof-
6c as second class mail matter.

When corrupt influences were driy-
en- out of the state legislature, II was
TO be expected that they would place
their sinister hands on the referen-
oum.
Under the cid plan they bought bad
laws. Now they attempt with money
and Burns detectives TO destroy good
laws.
But the state is fortunate in having
a governor who is able and courage
GUS enough to defeat them. Governor
Cox doubtless knew what It meant TO
fight these corruptionists when he
gave battle. He has right now the
plain evidence that Of the Sc major
laws enacted under his guidance not
one has provoked sufficient opposi-
tion in the safe upon which an honest
referendum could be secured.
That in itself speaks volumes for
the legislation and the confidence of
the people in the governor.
With stout heart and cool head he
has saved the referendum and has es-
tablished this precedent-that IL must
be clean for all umes.-Ohio State
Journal, Republican.

peachment. II was 5:16 o'clock this
morning when the resolution was
adopted. The vote came after the
Governors wife had made an eleventh
hour effort to save him, in the risk of
running her own reputation, she claim
ing that she had taken the campaign
money and had speculated with 1t in
Wall Street, having endorsed the
name of her husband to the checks.
Governor Sulzer has so far refused
to make a public statement. He has
been closeted all day with Hon. D.
Cady Herrick, his chief counsel. II is
believed that Herrck has supreme
court writ to sustain Sulzer in his con-
tention that he is still governor.
1t is rumored that Sulzer may or

forcibly eject him from the capitol.

GOT GAY ON THE STAGE.
Irving Spoiled the Scene the Only Time
He Broke His Rule.

He Broke His Rule.
The note about actors who try to
"queer" other actors on the stage,
writes correspondent, reminds me Of
a story Of the only time when Henry
Irving was guilty of such thing. He
was acting Othello. to the Desdemona
of the late Miss Bateman. and every
Saturday night the performance was
followed by very pleasant little sup
per party.
Desdemona was strangled on bed
at the back of the stage. and part OF
Irving's business" was to leave the
bed and then, going back to IL, to draw
the curtains slightly aside and peep 10
at the body, afterwnrd turning a face
of inexpressible anguish toward the
audience, His face, his shuddcr and
the deep drawn sigh which he gave
were among the most impressive parts
of one of his greatest creations.
AS rule, he sternly suppressed any
levity on the stage, but one Saturday
night, as he drew back the curtain. he
said, in a sepulchral whisper, what
have we for supper. DesdemOnar
Alas! Miss Batenan was unequal to
the strain, and merry laugh from the
corpse rang through the house,

break his own rule of seriousness on
the stage 1t was told me adds our

THE QUESTION INVOLVED

The vita, question TO be determined
in the contest over the proposed ref
ereAda on the Warne8 and Fitzpatrick
tax laws is whether the state shall
control the taxing machinery in Ohio
or whether the big corporations and
privileged interests" shall use the tax
ing machinery for the purpose of pay
ing taxes on gross undervaluaucns of
their property.
Under an antiquated system Of as
sesslng their property, giant corpOr-
ations seeking special advantages es-
capped paying their just share Of taxes
but in 1910 they lost that privilege
When the State Tax Commission and
Smith one per cent tax rate acts were
enacted. Under the former. millions
of dollars have been added to the as
asessed values of public utility proper
'ty and the possessors OF this class Of
assets are for the first time In the his
tory of the state paying their just
share.
The Smith law established basis
for economy and was one OF the hota
BILE reforms of the last administration
. The present administration has work
ed steadfastly to preserve and
strengthen both of those measures
There is no danger of the special In
terests ever being able to repeal or
amend these just laws in an open
frank discussion, with the people sit

strongholds of Romanism in Ameri-

abound. The black-robed ministers
OF Rome move stealthily along the

see an ominous shadow in advance
and yet deeper gloom rushing after
them. Professionalism should be re-
inforced in st. Louis. More strong,
bold men are wanted, not to fight,
but to pray; not to quarrel, but to
preach the truth as it is in Jesus"
