COOPER VICTIM OF
DETECTIVES PLOT

MeLain s. Cooper, the young man
who was arrested here several weeks
ago while working on the Tip Top
ranch west Of the city, charges having
been brought against him by ]. j. Sui
liyan, who stated that be was a Pink
erton detective, to the effect that he
had been acquitted Of murder IN North
/ Dakota on account Of wholesale brlb-
cry, was the victim Of plot by the
I detective. Governor Hanna having is
sued papers of requisition. the case
came on for hearing in Portland before
Miss Fern Hobbs, Gov. Vests private
/ secretary last Thursday. when II de-
veloped that the confession that
young McLain was supposed to have
made was made in fact by W. S. Me-
Gruder.
Miss Hobbs turned the evidence Sc
cured over TO Governor West, who
asked Governor Hanna TO withdraw his
| papers of requisition.
Cooper was tried on a murder charge
| in North Dakota and acquitted. The
man killed was James Ross, who had
worked on the Cooper ranch. Ross
was alleged to have threatened Cooper
and the lattersshOt in self-defense. All
this occurred two years ago.
The representations made when
Cooper was arrested at Hood River was
that he was wanted for jury bribing in
his trial and that the state of North
Dakota had spent thousands of dollars
hunting for him. 1t was shown at the
hearing yesterday that Cooper has
never tried to conceal himself since
living in Oregon, and that he was not
wanted in North Dakota on a criminal
charge, but for the purpose of getting
him back there for a civil suit, the
heirs of Ross suing Cooper's father for
$50. 600 damages.
The spectacular denoumeht came
when McGruder appeared at the hear
ing. McGruder stated that he had met
Sullivan at the bar at the Oxford,
Sixth and Oak streets, in January, and
become acquainted with the operative
when the latter was spending money
freely. Sullivan asked McGruder to do
him a favor and answer in the atfirma-
tive such questions as he asked. Me-
Gruder agreed and Sullivan led him to
a room in the Imperial Hotel, where
Sullivan piled him with questions and
McGruder answered them. In an ad-
joining bathroom stenographer took
down the questions and answers. K.
w. Bamfield, another private detective
who was operating with Sullivan and
who had also made his headquarters
with Sullivan at the Oxford, was con-
cealed in the bathroom with the stem
ographer.
At the hearing Bamfield testified that
he had overheard the confession" and
supposed that Sullivan, whose voice he
knew, was getting the confession" "
from Cooper.
According to the defense, put up by
]. j. Fitzgerald. representing Cooper,
the whole case is frame. e.up" pre-
pared by private detectives to Job
Cooper and get him back to North Da-
kota on the fake confession. Sullivan
is supposed to be a Pinkerton man be-
cause the Pinkertons secured his re-
lease when he was arrested for passing
worthless checks at the Hotel Imperial
after staging his confession" stunt
with McGruder, the steongrapher and
Bamfeld.

Just Little Stories

As is generally known, John Colds
bury, of the Upper Valley, was one of
the most popular students at the Ore
gon Agricultural College short course
the past winter. Mr.. Goldsbury has
become famed for his faculty of dig
ging into things. When he doesn't un-
derstand he asks questions until he is
enlightened. At recitation Of class
in Animal Husbandry last winter. one
of the professors was lecturing on the
anatomy of the COW. The jowl was
mentioned. Immediately Mr.. Colds
bury was on his feet and asked the
question: Professor, just what part
of the COW is the jowl?" 1t broke up
the class and it may be truly said that
not one of the members of that class
will ever forget Mr.. Goldsbury.

Animal Husbandry Meet Deferred

The last meeting of the Commercial
clubs agricultural and horticultural
series, scheduled for last Saturday,
which was to have been devoted to ami
NAL husbandry, was indefinitely post
poned. The rush of spring work in the
country has been so great as to cause
doubt in the minds of the members
of the agricultural committee as to the
ability of the farmers to get in on Sat-
urday to attend this meeting. Rather
than have small crowd greet so noted
an authority as Prof. Potter it was
thought advisable to defer the meeting
to some future date when a full attend
ance could be expected.
= The Commercial club has been mail
ing out booklets on alfalfa growing,
and how to produce better corn. The
past week a very fine illustrated book
let on hogs has been sent out, together
with one on soil culture.

JUDGE BENEFITS
STRENGTH GROWS

The withdrawal of Robert l.. Stevens
as a candidate for the republican nomin-
alton for governor, is materially help
ing Judge AS. Bennett, of The Dalles,
candidate for the Democratic guberna-
torial nomination, says dispatch from
Portland.
Many citizens who registered as Re-
publicans and intended to vote for Ste
vens have changed their registration
and are now enrolled as Democrats in
order that they may vote for Judge Ben
nett. One political manager estimates
that the withdrawal of Stevens will
make 1000 more Democratic votes in
Multnomah county.
Judge Bennett, it is generally con-
ceded by political experts here, is the
leading Democratic candidate for gov
ernor. The indications grow stronger
every day that the noted eastern Ore
gon lawyer will receive the nomination
for governor by large plurality.

MEDFORD SMUDGES
AGAINST FROST

Frost campaigns have been waged in
earnest this spring in the Medford fruit
district. Five thousand dollars worth
of crude oil distillate was consumed,
100, 600 smudge pots we're lighted, and
in the morning Medford's citizens
look through a jet black haze which
necessitste electric lights at the
breakfast table, and bath before
noon.
Local olchardists have a way of
making the best of bad situation,
however, and smudging parties are the
latest fad. Instead of dancing the
tango the young married set are filling
smudge pots with crude oil and reading
thermometers. Friends who haven't
orchards in the frost belt are invited.
Hot meals are served at midnight and
Z a. M, and when the frost is in con-
troll, bridge or dancing is enjoyed.

TELEPHONE COMPANY WILL
COLLECT REVENUE TAX

Speaking today of the Federal rev.
enue tax Of one cent on all telephone
messages costing fifteen cents and
over, which goes into effect on Dec
LIST, Manager Bissell of the telephone
company said:
''The preparation for the collection
of the one-cent tax has been big job
for the telephone company. 1t involv-
es instructions to the operators for the
collection of this tax at the public pay
stations and the making Of special
preparations for billing subscribers.
"The law requires the telephone
company to collect this tax, in addition
TO the regular charge for the message.
Notification of this new tax is being
sent out with the bills to all subscrib-
ers, and other notices have been plac-
ed near all public telephones.
"The new law applies not only to all
messages on which the initial rate is
iuteen cents or more per message, Dut
also to all messages on which the total
charge for single conversation, in
GLIDING overtime, amounts TO fifteen
cents or more. Thus, while call at
the initial rate of five cents or ten
cents bears no tax, should the CONVEX
sation be prolonged over the period
which makes the aggregate charge
fifteen cents or more, the tax Of one
cent is imposed.
"A subscriber making a toll call
from any Of the automatic pay sta
tons will be asked by the operator to
Please drop one cent Federal tax in
the twenty-five cent slot. When the
penny drops, II will be heard by the

THE NEW JUDGES

At last the long looked for and much
talked of reorganization of the courts
OF the State Of Vermont has taken
place and Supreme Court justices
Munson of Manchester, and Hazleton
of Burlington, and Superior Judge
Fish of Vergennes, are found outside
the breastworks.
The new appontees are Judge l.. p.
Slack Of ST. Johnsbury at present a
judge Of the Superior Court, and Rob-
ert T.. Healy OF Bennington, to the
Supreme bench, and Walter A. Dutton
of Hardwick, and James b. Donaway
Of Middlebury, to the Superior bench
The Journal regrets exceedingly the
retiring of Judge Loveland Munson
who has ben an honor to his profess
sion, his town and state. Judge Mum
son was appointed to the supreme
bench by Gov. VIM. p. Dillingham; in
September, 1889, consequently has
just completed 25 years service. At
the time of his leaving the bench he
was the ranking member, having been
such since the retirement Of Chief
Justice Rowel some time since.
To Judge Healy the Journal pre-
sents its compliments and feels that,
as Judge Munson was doomed to re-
tirement from the bench, the governor
could not have made a better choice
than he did in choosing Mr.. Healy.
We wish him success in his new posi-
ton
