Sentence oq Robert L. Mooney
One lo Five Years
ACCEPTS PENALTY QUIETLY
Bert Daley Enters M Cniliy Pie?,
Aiii Trial Bigios Tomorrow
llob)ts Iadicitd
Quiet In his actions, but ns lo
quacious us ever, Robert L. Mooney,
convicted of while slavery, stood be
fore Judge Hamilton In the Circuit
Court this morning and received nn
indcterniinnte sentence of from one
to five years in the state peniten
tiary. He Interrupted Judge Hamil
ton several times during the remarks
of the court, but aside from this bis
conduct was orderly both in and out
of the court room, llpforo imposing
the penalty, Judge Hamilton asked
the convicted man if he had anything
to say and Mooney, naturally as talk
ative as a parrot, did not let this
invitation go by.
Pleads Periodical Insanity,
"I have been subject to apoplexy
and periodical insanity ever since 1
was kicked in the bead by a horse
during tile Spanish-American war 11
years ago," said Mooney. "1 was
perfectly sane, I'll admit, all the time
I was with Ethel Metcalf, hut there
arc times when I'm crazy. Then I'm
apt to Injure somebody. 1 wasn't
drunk in court Wednesday: I was
under the influence of a drug which
was passed to me in the jail just be
fore the Sheriff came for mo."
Mooney then showed the Judge
some papers to substantiate his
statement that he had been an inmate
of the hospital for the criminally In
sane at Medical Lake, Wash. After
a brief examination of these papers.
Judge Hamilton said to the prisoner:
"It Is impossible for ns to know
the condition of your mind, but 1
am inclined to think that yon are
subject to Irrational spells. Your
crime, however, was undoubtedly
committed when you wero perfectly
sane. Yon are evidently of natural
criminal tendencies. I have taken
muticiiliii' notice of your Incorrigi
bility since your confinement in the
cnimtv tall, and I would advise you
in mend vour conduct. Your future
depends chiefly on yourself, nnd your
punishment will depend nn what you
''""I'll get solitary confinement. 1
.,,ra " broke In Mooney. "That's
what I've had before when the
nrnv snclls CaiHO Oil. And wild! l'lll
that way I have nn uncontrollable
mania for breaking bars.
"You will he where experienced
nien can observe your ease nnd give
von nroner attention." the Judge re
sumed. "They will do right with
you If you do light by yourself. The
sentence of the court is that you be
confined In the slate penitentiary for
a term of not less than one year nor
more than five years."
Mooney stepped up to the Judge's
desk, gathered np his papers nnd left
the court room quietly with the
Sheriff.

There will have to be a material
Increase lu the number of ballot

will expire before It is known
whether he is elected or not," said a
politician facetiously. "Speaking
seriously," he continued, "it will ho
necessary to Increase tne numuer oi
polling places on account of the en
franchisement of women, and the

that statement, i ne ,

1 speak generally, ot course, for Ihey

and soino of them will voto foolishly,
many ot them perhaps, as men some

in economics and sociology by mail

that, other things equal, women
would vote more rapidly than men.
The average woman w rites more rap
