SAI.EM, Or., Feb. 20. When the
Harrett-Hurd bill, known as the coun-
i ty bonding law, came up in the House
for consideration todsy, NicholB cre-
nted a decided Btorm by endeavoring
to force the Insertion of tho Kellnher
1 amendment, barring all patent pave
ments from county roads.
After a hot tilt, In which several
members of the House took part, the
amendment or substitute for section
24 was adopted. This throws open
the specifications for county road
work to all comers.
Governor West "had objected to sec
tion 24 as passed by the Senate, and
the compromise substitute offered by
Smith was accepted in that branch of
the Legislature.
Forbes KcscntM Move.
Without the slightest warning,
when the measure came to the House,
Nichols injected the patent l't
feature Into the situation. Forbes
scored Nichols for bringing in this
amendment again, charging it to bn
unfair.
"We havo gone all over -this mat
ter time and time r.gain," said
Forbes, "and it has been thrashed
out in cor' uittees of both houses anil
has been g. m more thought and con
sideration ptrhaps than any other bill
ot this session. Now why bring tills
paving fight In here? Everyone Is1
satisfied with the Smith umendment;
and let us put that in and send the
bill back to the Senate for final ac
tion." When the vote was taken on the
Nichols amendment, which was In the
Identical language of one which Sen
ator Kellnher tried to havo Inserted
when the Barrett bill wos In the Sen
ate, It was voted down overwhelming
ly. 'The Smith amendment intro-
duced by Reames was then voted on
and was adopted by the same vote.
On final rollcall Nichols stood alone
in voting against the amended llar-rctt-Hurd
bill.

Synopsis of Defense.
All of the personal and political
vlndlctlveness and acrimony that
stamped the brewery trial as the most
bitterly fought case ever heard In the

the contentions of the defense thus:
' ' "l "ll " ''"'
Nothing more or less than a consplr-
acy on part of hlB political enemies
to get even with him for fancied
wrongs; that tho Sheriff and Prose
cuting Attorney wero compelled to
become parties to the plot by the
threat of (Jovernor West to deprive
them of their Jobs if they didn't
proseeuto the brewery; that tho al
leged sales of beer to Connor from
the brewery. If made, were so done
by nn employe without the knowledge
or consent of Micelli; that. Micelll's
enemies never came forward to prose
cute bim until after he was elected
Mayor nnd nearly a year after he had
resigned from tin- management of the
brewery, a circumstance tending to
show an ulterior motive.

in tho Circuit Court and all are listed
as wltn"sses .against Mlcelll. Their
records In this court will naturally
weigh heavily against their testi
mony, nnd the attorneys for the de
fense may lie expected to arraign
them In language of unusual severity.
When the brewery was tried Inst
Fall. Hoover, a former stockholder In
the corporation, later a political foe
of Mlcelll, gave evidence In behalf of
the state anil In consequence sub

ciation nl the hands of Attorney Her

natunil pre'-'umptlon that be is
scheduled for another flaying. Hoov
er Is expected to testify thnt the sales
of 1 r iiuide by the brewery to Con
nor were under Mlcelll's direction.
Hoover Is alleged to have been a
silent business associate of Connor
when the latter conducted a liquor
house In Koseliurg. Connor was
twice convicted of selling Intoxicating
liquor nnd on the last occasion he
served a month's time In the county
Jail. Ho blamed Mlcelll for his con
viction. Weiss, now conducting a brewery
at 1'klah. Cal., formerly operated a
cold storage and beer depot In Uose
burg. He was four times Indicted for
violating the local option law. On
one charge ho paid a fine
on thcii
second ho wns sentenced to Jail, but
tho unsanitary condition of that place
of Imprisonment saved him from
serving tho sentence. The remaining
charges against him were dismissed
upon motion of Prosecuting Attorney

Connor Splines Surprise.
Connor waa called by the state to
the witness stand thla morning and
during his croes-eiamlnatlon he made
an amaslng statement tending to
show that Doctor George E. Houck.
opponent of Mlcelll In the mayoralty
race, contemplated open opposition to
the local option law In the event of
being elected. Houck told Connor,
witness said, If he- waa elected Mayor
he would favor discontinuance of
traffic In near-beer and the substitu
tion of licensed traffic in standard
beer by saloons limited? in number to
seven.
Connor admitted that such boar aa
he seeured from the brewery waa sold
to him by Relsensteln and that Ml
celll never once so much as visited
his place of business. He also ad
mitted that he never paid any money
over to Mlcelll, except on the lone oc
casion referred to above.
When Hoover testified he gave no
evidence at all bearing directly on the
alleged sale of beer to Connor. He
told about operations of toe brewery
In a general way while he was a di
rector. When he had finished At
torney Rice moved to strike out his
answers, but the court ruled adverse
ly. The only feature of his testimony
wsb the statement that he and Joseph
and Frank Mlcelll, acting In unison,
sent out of town a spotter who pre
tended to have Incriminating knowl
edge and evidence of the brewery's
business. This spotter, he said, was
accompanied out of town by G.
Worthlngton, who received payment
from the brewery for his services.
"Were any other officers of the
brewery connected with thla act?"
Attorney Rice asked.
"Not thnt I know of." the witness
replied. "The others played the part
of gentlemen. They Bat back and
drew the dividends, nnd the Micellls
and I did the dirty work."
Hicn tried to draw from the wit
ness an admission that ho got the
spotter out of town to shield him

JUDGE HAMILTON
REVERSES RULING
IN PISHING USE
Judge J. W. Hamilton Ibis after
noon reversed his decision of yester
day In the ense of Bert Taylor and
Hugh Pearson, Indicted on tho charge
of illegally fishing at tho Winchester
dam. Ills first decision was that the
statute under which the indictment
was drawn wiib defective, and the in
dictment dismissed. His second and
final decision Is that the statute Is
applicable to the charge against the
defendants, and he has placed Uielr
case back nn the docket. A date for
trial has not yet been Bet.
Tho question was raised originally
by Attorney W. W. Cnrdwell, counsel
for tho accused men, In his argument
in support of a demurrer to the In-
dlctment. He contended that the
atntute did not make It unlawful to
fish within the ICOO-foot limit of the
dam during the closed season with
tackle other than hook and line, simp
ly because 'the snme law prohibited
foul hook fishing during the open
season. Judge Hamilton at first bub
tnlned him. This morning, however,
the court announced that It had
looked Into tint question further and
enmo to the conclusion that the
statute did make It unlawful to fish
with foul book during tho closed
season, na prevails now, within the
1600-foot limit, and thereupon over
ruled the demurrer.
Judgo Hamilton's second decision
Is In accord with a previous opinion
furnished to the state game warden
hv the Attorney-Oenoral. The Indefi
nite wording of the statute Is gener
ally recognized, however, and It Is
said the present Legislature will be
asked to amend the law so that there
can be no further conflict In Its In
ternretatlon. Judge Hamilton's cor-
- ecttng decision will have the effect
of stopping a lot of fishing that has
been in progress since his first ruling

J. Wtlsey, of Portland, today pur
chased the holdings of Major L. D,
Kinney in Norm Bend. The deal In
volves over $1,000,000, and papers
will be exchanged at the Lumber
men's National Bank at Portland aa
soon as abstracts are prepared.
, Mr. wtlsey aaya be Is operating
for an English syndicate, and will In
vest other millions In property on the
pacific Coast, this purchase being but
a starter.
The transfer Includes the fran
chises of the Belt Line Railway and
the Rapid Transit Company, 1300
acres of land on the peninsula adjoin
ing Marshfleld and North Bend, 1000
acrea on the lower bay and over 16,
000 lota, besides railway rights,
which consist of city franchises and
War Department permits, also In
cluded, within the city limits are ad
ditional tracts, or 640 acres. In one
piece and 600 acres In another. All
of the land Is platted, and some tracts
are Improved anil streets being laid.
The railroad franchises are consid
ered very valuable, one being for a
bolt line calling for a right to build
a road entirely around the bay on
both sides from harbor entrance to
harbor entrance.
Mr. Wllsey says his syndlrata In
cludes 30 English capitalists. The
deal, he says. Is for cash. Ho says
that work on tho construction nf the
belt line road will start as soon na
posslblo and will bo followed by con
struction of a rapid transit system.
Major Kinney has had troublous
times holding tho property Involved
in this deal. There tins been much
litigation over It, but clear title can
bo given when the debts are cleared,
which will leave Major Kinney up
wards of half a million.
Mr. Wllsey will remain hern for
somo time, looking over the ground
with an eye to other purchases, he
says.
Wllsey projected a coast line rail
road from Tillamook to tho California
line, making a survey and oven secur
ing a part of tho rlght-of-wny. Later
ho abandoned this plan In favor of a
lino from Eugene to Coos Bay, incor
porating the Paclflc-Orent Western.
This rond made several surveys, and
finally Becured right of way along tho
const and Inland within 25 miles nf
Eugene. Tho Southern Pacific, which
is now building to Marshfleld, bought
these Burveys and rights-of-way less
than a year ago.
