Prison Terms

Seventy-two criminals were sent to prison
for total of 45S years in one day last week
by six judges in general sessions and three
justices sitting in criminal parts of the SUI
preme court, New York.
That broke all records from the time New
York courts began to function in 1858, and
it brought smile of satisfaction to the face
of District Attorney Banton, who announced
two weeks ago that he intended to expedite
justice in New York to break the crime wave.
When the courts opened 119 prisoners
were listed for sentence. Besides the seventy
two who were started on their prison terms,
twenty-six prisoners benefited by suspended
sentences and action on twenty-one others
was postponed.
The crowds that thronged the corridors
of the Criminal Courts building were great
er even than those attracted by some of the
famous trials that have taken place there.
The crowds were made UP mainly OF rela-
tives and friends of the men to be sentenced.
The sentences imposed ranged from thirty
days in the Tombs, in minor larceny cases,
to sixty years in Sing Sing.

vHHROUGHOUT the whole country people are dspos-
ed this year to do some thinking for themselves
when it comes to deciding political issues. Indiana
went into open revolt against the political organization of
that state and nominated Beverdge Even the rock-rib
bed machine rule state of Pennsylvania is having real
fight over the republican nomination for governor with
the outcome yet uncertain.
The issues vary in different states but throughout the
whole country, Oregon included there is the same under
lying unrest with organization control The people desire
good government They are not at heart in favor of
Newberrysm. They do not believe in raiding the civil
service and putting postal appointments back upon
spos basis To do not good sense neither is it econ
0y The average war horse appointee be he pOstmast
er or something ese is usually mere pensioner on the
payroll Of the government He renders no service and
gets substantial salary for warming chair The people
know that and they right in rising in revolt when ma
chine politics attempts to turn back the clock and play d
recty against the move to restore sound and stable cond
tions
How are taxes to be reduced if the merit system is to
be thrown overheard and the spo system restored? Why
complain of taxation and then vote to uphold those who
openly place politics above efficiency and economy
congressman has DONE Mr. Snnot had control of postal
appointments in Eastern Oregon and he chose his
path He turns his back on the forward policies of Roose
vet and Wilson and played the game Of machine politics.
To Mr. Sinnott the wishes of few organization men
meantm than did the expressed desire of business
and professional men.
If after 10 years in office Nick Snnott has not yet
learned that who their pay better than
who do not not time for people to do little thnkng
The revolt against machine methods is to be encour-
aged 1t will do the country good and will improve the
tone of our political organizations. When a few men
clothed with organization control think they have become
tin gods and snap their fingers at the public will it is
time for a reckoning.

the old school hall to fix the furnace.
Unlocking the door he entered the
building and went to the basement
and upon his return to the main hall
a noise from the galleries attractedhis
attention, which proved to be Mrs
Florence Billiard of this city who de-
cended the stairs and left the build
ing.
When about to depart she inquired
of the janitor when the Thrift shop
would again be open. Mr.. Martin in
formed her that it was only open on
Tuesdays. Mr.. Martin thought moth
ing of the incident and proceeded to
empty a pail of ashes at the rear of
the building. When he returned to
the hall, he again heard noise from
the gallery, which caused him to as
cend the stairs, where he discovered a
brisk blaze at the entrance to the
Thrift shop rooms. AS it appeared
to be coming through from under the
door he hastily unlocked the door to
ascertain the extent of the fire, which
he found only around the door. He
out the blaze with his mittens and
failing in that, hurried to the fire
station and put in a call by phone for
Fire Chief Fl. III. Green. He then Sc
cured a hand chemical from the fire
truck and again returned to the scene.
Mr.. Green soon arrived and secured
another hand chemical, but the fire
had worked it's way under the floor
and into the partitions around the
door, and the two hand chemicals
were not sufficient to conquer it and
the fire truck was called The fire
station being located SO close to the
school building, there was sufficient
hose connected with the chemical
tanks to carry the chemical to the
scene without moving the truck and
the battle was soon won, but not I'M
til some of the flooring, both in the
gallery and Thrift shop was torn up
and partitions entered. Had the fire
got under way the loss would have
been heavy. The early arrival of
Mr.. Martin, the nearness athand offre
fighting apparatus, the recent install
ing of the telephone at the fire sta
ton, which summoned the fire chief,
attributed to the small loss, and pre-
vented a fire alarm and much ex-
pense to the city. The early arrival
at the fire furnished the clue that it
was Of incendiary nature, as kerosene
was discovered around the door and
feet into the Thrift shop.
The local branch of the American
Red Cross recently opened Thrift
sho- in rooms leading from the gal
lery of the Old School building,
where on every Tuesday afternoon
and evening, second hand wearing ap-
parel has been placed on sale, and on
the day previous the shop was open
for business. The location of the fire
round the door which bore the sign
Thrift shop" would indicate that the
party who caused it had some griev-
ance against the work of the Red
Cross.
AS the building is kept locked, the
party took advantage of the janitor's
absence in the basement and then
aimed entrance, finding the door I'M
ocked.
Immeditely following the fire, Fire
Chief III. HI. Green forwarded the re-
port of his findings to the office OF

the state fire marshal at Montpelier
which resulted in the quick action.
Deputy State Fire Marshal A q.
Preble, who was at Rutland at the
time, was notified by wire and he ar
rived in Newport Friday evening. Mr..
Preble, who has had much experience
in similar cases, was not long in get
ting into action, and before he retired
had caused arrest of Mrs. Bull
lard and had her signed confession
Mr.. Preble upon his arrival went
over the case with Chief Green and
the scene of the fire was visited. He
then sub-poenaed Mrs. Billiard for a
hearing before him at the Newport
house. O. A. SWEET served the pa
pers. She at first proclaimed her in
nocence, but following an hour of
grilling cross-examination by Mr..
Preble in the presence of Officer SWEET
and Chief Green, she broke down and
confessed, claiming that she purchased
quart of kerosene at Lane & Sons
store, paying six cents and proceeded
to the hall where she found the door
unlocked.
This not being the frs building
where the origin of the fire was laid
at her door, Mr.. Preble questioned
her in regard to other circumstances
upon which she admitted setting five
or six other buildings in about the
same manner. Following the confess
sion, she was turned over to states
attorney A. w. Farman, arrested and
lodged in the county jail. State De-
putty Fire Marshal Preble, is man of
action and his work in handling this
case is worthy of high comment. The
circumstances surrounding every fire
is reported to the office of the state
fire marshal and any case pointing
to incendiarism is quickly investigated
and several are serving time as re-
suit.
