DR.. c. J. SMITH IN
LINE FOR GOVERNOR
DECLARE FRIENDS
Strong State Wide Support Offered.
Attitude OF Journal Important
Factor in Situation.

DIR. c. j. Smith who is here today
is being strongly urged by friends in
Umatilla county and elsewhere
throughout the state to run for gov
ernor next year. He may do so and
If he enters the race there are reasons
for believing the doctor will have the
inside track on the contest for the
democratic nomination This is on
the assumption Governor West will
not be "A candidate for reelection.
Up to this time DR.. Smith himself
has made no announcement on the
subject, as the primary election will
not occur for some six months. but
his friends are going on the assump-
tion he will be candidate and are
rallying to his support.
Walter NJ. Pierce. former Joint sem
ator and close personal friend Of the
former local man is an earnest sup
porter of the doctor and Is outspoken
In declaring DR.. Smith can win.
speaking of the situation as he has
found it Mr.. Pierce said:
From considerable Information
that have received from prominent
democrats from practically every por-
ton of the state 1 know that DR.. c..
j. Smith is decidedly the choice of
democrats at this time for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor. There
are one or two other aspirants who
have some ardent personal supporters
but the sentiment for DR.. Smiths cam
didacy is statewide and is not con-
fined to any particular faction or sec
tion. DIR. Smith has very strong sun
port from many prominent men who
were associated with him or knew
him during his eight years in the state
senate. Any man who has been
personally associated with DIR. Smith
and who like him believes in demo-
cracy of the Woodrow Wilson tyne is
not only his warm personal friend but
his ardent supporter. for DR.. Smith
has a wonderful and charming per-
sonality. He would make an ideal
governor.
In my view" says Mr.. Pierce, "a
very important factor in the selection
of democratic candidate for COVER
nor will be the attitude of the Ore
gon Journal. No democratic nominee
for governor can hope for success in
the election without the hearty sup
port of the Journal. I am inclined
to believe the Journal would prefer to
see the nomination go to DR.. Smith
than to any other aspirant in the
field"
Will NJ. Peterson. democratic leader
In Umatilla county, is also backing
DIR. Smiths candidacy. He is the
most logical man in the state for the
democratic nomination. he declares.
'and | am for him from Alpha to
omega. If he enters the race, as I
think he will, l am ready to go down
the line for him and there is a null
titude ready to do the same thing

Toy Toy, Bosom Companion
Of Columbia George, gives
Damaging Evidence at Trial

ed to see this last and final hypothe-
sis dealt staggering blow. They
had created n suspicion that Mrs. ia
cobs, first wife of Columbia George.
might have been responsible for the
killing OF Ti-mot but this morning the
prosecution put in evidence to show
that Mrs. Jacobs was not near the
scene of the crime that day.
The defense had established the
point that George had lived with his
first wife about year after his par
don from prison and that during
that time Ti-mot had lived with
them. They placed witnesses on the
stand to show that 1t was common
gossip among the Indians that III
mot had caused the separation of
George and his first wife and had
been the means of bringing him and
his present wife together. They estab-
llshed the point that Mrs. Jacobs had
been living on the Bitner place and
strove to prove that she was on the
land at the time of the murder.
This morning. however, Mrs. Ja-
cobs herself was called to the stand
and testified that she had driven to
Pendleton In the morning of that day
with Mrs, Phillip Jones, that they had
met the evening train to see If the
latter's daughter had returned from
Chemawa and after five o'clock had
driven back to the campmeeting. Mrs
Jones took the stand and corroborat-
cd the story.
Mrs. Jim Barnhart was also called
to the stand and testified to meeting
Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Jacobs on the
road on the afternoon in question at
about six o'clock
C. A. Dozler this afternoon testi-
fled to being in the Dupuis store on
the morning of the day of the crime,
of having seen the defendant, Toy

of having seen a bottle of alcohol In
the possession of the defendant. His
testimony corroborated that of Andy

ANTI-JEWISH OUTBREAK
SEEMS PENDING IN RUSSIA
FEELING Is RUNNING HIGH AND
SOLDIERS MAY CEASE TO
KEEP ORDER.

KIEFF, Russia, Nov. 1.-THE anti
Jewish feeling here is at fever heat
and an outbreak seemed Imminent
The government evidently diI not
want TO slaughter the Jews at time
when the attention of foreigners gen.
orally was centered upon its treatment
Of Jewish subjects and had taken
what looked like a genuine precaution
TO keep order Cavalry patrolled the
streets and crowds were not permit
ted to gather.
The views of the soldiers are those
of the populace and IL is doubtful II
they will make much of an effort to
protect the Jewish quarter in the event
OF an outbreak.

PROPERTY
OWNERS WILL PAY q
MILL TAX THIS YEAR

Pendleton property owners will
pay approximately 81 mill tax this
year. If the budget as prepared by
the county court is finally adopted
and used as the basis Of a county
levy. This will be between four and
five mills greater than the tax of last
year despite the fact that the city
and school levies are the same and
the county tax figured approximately
the same.
The extra tax is levied by the state.
Owing to the fact that the state tax
must cover the appropriations made
by the last legislature, it is estimated
this years state levy will be five
mills whereas last year 1t was but
IL mills. This is probably the last
year in which there will be such
big difference in the state levy from
year to year. the last legislature hav-
ing passed a law allowing the tax
commission to anticipate appropria-
tlons SO that in the future the state
will not have a low levy just before
each session and high one just aft
er.
The taxable property in Umatilla
county this year. exclusive of public
service properties, the valuation of
which is fixed by the state commits
sion, figures nearly 32,5o0.O0O more
than last year. Last year the value
was s33,609,1i1 and this year it is
sS6O43.9S6.
A IL mill tax last year yielded
S40.330.s7 as Umatilla county's share
o! the state expenses while this year
five mill tax will yield s21O,2l9.s3.
The budget as prepared and pub
lished by the county court under the
new law, amounts to s264.6O6, to
Hise which approximately a six mill

Defense Rests
The defense brought its case prac-
ucally to a close yesterday evening
with the conclusion of Columhia
Georges own story. This morning
Kate Jo' owner of the horse Ti-mot
had been riding. took the stand to
testify that her horse was a little
wild
Columbia George was on the stand
Tor three hours and a half Yesterday
afternoon and. in the main. his testi-
mony was straight denial of the
evidence against him. He admitted
having been at the Bitner ranch bu,
denied that he had met Ti-mot there,
declaring he had not seen her that
day at all, He declared he rode back
to the main road and went on to the
pea patch to await his wife. During
the cross examination. he demon
strated a cautiousness of answer that
haffled all attempts to entangle him.
To many of the questions he made
evasive answers
The defense indlcatea yesterday
afternoon that if an adverse verdict
Is returned that it will bring up the
question of jurisdiction.
The prosecution has been dwelling
upon the lapse OF time between the
alleged first assault and the alleged
last one, claiming this lapse of time
was sufficient to constitute premedia.

Toy Toy, bosom friends and COM

and half ago. furnished one of the
sensations of the present trial of his

Toy Toy took the stand as rebut-
tai witness for the prosecution and
his testimony. while aimed to inn
peach two of the defense's principal
witnesses. the wife of the defendant
and Jennie Van Pelt had the second
mission OF connecting up Columbia
George with the crime.
He testified that on the Saturday
following the discovery of the body,
columbia Georges wife came to him
where he was working and, after first
trying to get him to meet her at a
,designsted place offered him. in the
presence of his sister, saddle or

ing the bottle of alcohol from which
he, her husband and Andy Barnhart
had been drinking on the morning of
the murder. On the following day

with the same offer and was follow
ed by Charley and Jennie Van Pelt,
the latter of whom asked him not to

DIRECTORS OF ROUNDUP
TO Be CHOSEN TONIGHT
BOARD WILL BE REFLECT
ED TO SERVE.

This evening the directorate of the
1914 Roundup will be chosen at a
meeting of the stockholders of the
frontier association and the stock
holders will hear the reports which
will inform them as to the financial
outcome of the 1918 show.
Indications are that the entire board
as it now stands will be reelected,
despite the fact that several of the
members have expressed a desire to
retire. II is said that Vice president
+. T. Ritner. Mark Moorhouse, di-
rector of competitive events. H. w
Collins, director of non-competitive
events. and Treasurer ". c. McKin-
ney have all manifested an intention
of retiring but pressure is being
brought to bear upon them to stand
for reelection. No opposition to any
member has developed and, so far as
is known, no one is openly in the field
for any of the positions. Therefore,
ii is quite probable that the election
will resolve itself into a motion to re-
tain the present board which includes
besides the four mentioned above, T
ID. Taylor, Charles II. Harsh. Roy T
Pishup, Lawrence G. Frazier, Fred
Earle, Sam r. Thompson and Dean
Tatom.
The meeting will be held in the as
sembly room of the city hall and will
he open to stockholders only. 1t will
commence at 1880.
