History of the Case.

Washington, Jan. 15-Maury I. Diggs
and F. Drew Caminetti must serve terms
in the federal prison for taking Lola
Norris and Marsha Warrington to Reno
New, in March, 1913.
Their four year fight for freedom
ended today when the United States su-
preme court affirmed their conviction
in lower courts under the Mann white
slave act.
Diggs must serve two years and pay a
fine of $4,000.
Caminetti must serve 19 months and
pay 81 800 fine.
Both Diggs and Caminetti were mar
ried and the fathers of children when
they were arrested. Their prominence
caused the case to attract widespread
attention. The families of both have
exhausted every resource during the
four year fight in federal courts. To
day 3 decision leaves no recourse but
the federal prison.
1t was on March 10, 1913, that Diggs
and Caminetti, with the two girls,
boarded a train at Sacramento to go to
Reno. Diggs was then &c years old, a
former employe of the state architect.
Caminetti, age 81, was con of Immi-
grafton Commissioner Anthony Cainetti.
The girls were daughters of well known
Sacramento people. Lola Norris was 10
and Marsha Warrington 20.
The four we're arrested in bungalow
at Reno on March IA, and the following
day Diggs and Caminetti were charged
at Sacramento with wife abandonment
and released on $1,000 bonds. Later the
federal authorities took the ease in
hand, and ON September IL, 1913, Diggs
and Caminetti were convicted in federal
court under the Mann white slave act of
transporting the girls into another
state for immoral purposes.
Two years ago the United States cir
cult court of appeals affirmed the lower
courts decision. The United States su-
preme court in JuRe, 1915, refused to
review the case. 1t was later taken up
under the question of the constitution
ality of the Mann act.
Today's decision that ga CONNER
cial" element does not have to be pres
ent under the Mann act applies directly
to the Diggs- Caminetti case.
SiHee his conviction Diggs has been
divorced by his wife and married
Marsha Warrington. They have a child
and are living in Oakland.
Efforts to reach Diggs at his home
after the decision was an
failed. He was away from home
and had not yet been appraised of the
supreme courts ruling.

about the governorship.
You can hear it mentioned in the ro-
tunda, not with bated breath either
now that the bait is scarce and prohib-
tied, but in softly eadenced whispers,
that the gentleman who eashes the
warrants issued to state employees has
his eye where the governor has his head
quarters, or words TO that effect, and
it is not on Loretta s saddle either. This
il is claimed accounts for a rift in the
David and Jonathan, Castor and Pol
lux, Damon and Pythias sentiment at
one time existing between certain mem
bers of the board of control. but which
seems to have spoiled somewhat in the
pool retting or something. All this is
Just rumor, but it is talked around the
railing under the big dome and it keeps
circulating there at least.
There is also considerable talk as to
why the governor wants so much power
placed in his hands, in the way of hav-
ing appointments turned over to him
that now are made by boards. AlJones
former member from Wallowa, but now
representing Marion, says so far as he
is concerned, he thinks the governor has
sometimes too much power, and that
there is an old proverb to the effect
that "the burned child breads the
fire. He says too that he does not
want to make the governor a regular
headsman, and become party to whole
sale decapitations by furnishing him
the axe.

practically a unanimous vote and
passed.
In regard to the provisions of house
bill No g. which provides for changing
the fiscal year to correspond with the
calendar year for filing annual reports
of the railroads and public utility cor.
porations, Representative Laurgaard,
author of the bill, stated that the meas.
ure was drawn to conform to the recent
ruling of the interstate commerce com
mission. He states it was prepared by
the public service commission and APP
proved by the railroads. He explained
that the change in time for making the
report was from June 80 to December
81, and the time of filing from Decem-
Der to April of the following year.
On account of the bill not conforming
to the resolution requiring all new mat

resentative Jones, of Marion, asked that
the bill be returned to the printer to

The suggestion of Governor Witty
combe that some provision be made by
which the emergency board could act
despite the tax limitation law, in case
Of the destruction of state buildings,
for instance, and without calling spe-
cial election is not receiving hilarious
approval. The governor suggests
that if the state capitol should burn,
the emergency board should be empow-
cred to build a new one without an elec
tion. Legislators look askance at the
proposition of placing such power in
the hands of the board. They ask,
"What kind of building would the
board erect if the capitol should burng
What, if the asylum or penitentiary
buildings should be destroyed9 How
much money would the board expend9"
The consensus of opinion seems to be
that it would be dangerous plan to
place this power in the hands of any
board. 1t belongs to the people alone.

Some Little stories and
Gossip of the Legislature

The Oregon Voter has very readable
article concerning the lobbyists at the
state house. 1t gives the leadership to
Robert E. smith of Roseburg, with e.
+. Spence leader of the state grange as
a close second. Tom McCusker is an
other well up toward the top, but the
Voter having mentioned these and q
job lot of ex-members, negleets 10 men

the whole bunch, the gentleman who
Is responsible for the Voter. Another
powerful lobby the voter negleets to
mention has not shown up in force yet
but which is not over looking anything
is the eOterie with headquarters at Cor
wallis. Some of the legislators are
wondering why the principal one of
these, who draws the highest salary
OF any state official, pulling down 81
900 year, considers this lobbying as
part Of the work he is paid for doing.
One of them suggested day or two
ago that the gentleman s salary should
be reduced at least for the time he
spends at the state capital during the
legislative session, which the same men,
Der fixed at forty two days, he com
ing the day before so as to get a good
seat and an ontline of his work; stay
ing one day after adjournment Just as
matter of caution lest something be
overlooked. The railroad lobby is not
so prominent as in the old days but it
is in evidence. 1t doesn t want much.
If it can go back to headquarters with
the scalp of the public utilities commits
sion at its belt it will be satisfied. 1t
really has nothing against the commits
sion but would like to have its own
business taken out Of its jurisdiction,
and for this would go to the extent of
abolishing the commission if necessary.
1t may have some business, should any
attempted legislation be undertaken
with regard to ear shortage, but there
seems but little danger from this source,
as there is no movement in evidence
looking to the bettering of conditions
or of making the railroads perform
their duties to the state.
The proposal to consolidate some of
the commissions has caused some wor-
ry in spots, but as a committee has the
whole matter in charge with instruc-
tions to report its findings as to the
feasibility of the proposed combining,
mergin~ or abolishing, there is moth
ing doing-yet.
Then there is a rumor, just rumor
that the governor is desirious of doing
away with the office of labor commits
sioner because he fancies there may be
gubernatorial aspirations Matching in
that office and he would stop the in
eubation at any cost. He is of the opin-
ion, so it is claimed, that the govern
or's o1l1ce is in pretty good hands just
now and that it should remain where it
is for the next six years.
This, as has been said, is merely
rumor and is repeated as such. Dame
rumor is busy in other directions too,
