ONE PLEADS GUILTY Jack Dennis, Also Charsed With Robbery, Hoars Testimony of First Witness, Then Changes Pica and (ieta Two Years. Considerable amusement was de rived this morning by judge. Jury, lawyers and spectators at the trial of the three negroes. Kid Williams, Charles Williams and Joe Brown, who were tried for burglary. The trio was accused of having entered the store of Sam Baseel at Glenedale and were arrested shortly afterwards with the goods In their possession. When' the trinl opened Joe Browu, against whom the evidence was con clusive, changed his plea to guilty and endeavored to spare his colored companions by telling a highly In flated story of how with the assist ance of a negro named "Blackle" ho had entered the store and had ap propriated the goods found. How ever, he went a little too far and his story quickly explodod under cross examination. Tho other two dusky prisoners made" strong denials but after getting considerably "balled up" In the geo graphical situation of Shasta Springs and Dunsmuir. where they each claimed to have purchased tho stuff found in their , possession, their stories became so confused that their guilt was evidont. The attorneys for the state and for the defense made only short arguments, and the Jury took no tlmn for deliberation, return ing its verdict of nuHty as soon as thhe organization was perfected. Judge Hamilton passed sentence I immediately, giving eacn oi me col ored men a maximum term of five years In the penitentiary. Their trial was preceded y that of Jack Dcinls, who was also ac cused of robbery committed at Olen dale. Ho was alleged to have en tered the store of II L. Wilson at Glenedale, In company with Frank Bovell. who was discovered to be thn son of a wealthy Oinnha man. Den nis demanded trial, and it is claimed forced Bovell to make a statement assuming the guilt for tho crime. Tlovell later retracted this statement and on the witness stand testifying npalnst Dennis, gave a clear-cut, de tailed statement or facta. When he had finished his testimony Dennis changed his plea from not guilty to guilty, and received a sentence of two years In tho penitentiary- Bovell was also sentenced tu serve two years nnd was paroled to George W. Plai ner, who left today with the young man for Omaha. Hiram Supporters Give Expenditures By Associated Press WASHINGTON, May 29.

But the remits were a I must nil. Must of the schools were free and failed tu attruel beltei classes, and French was loo sirougl. entrenched as the language of Irad and social intercourse to be dis placed. Since the anulstleo Italians have been working Industriously to popu lurize their language and literature Italian officers ale uow teaching Hi schools as the Germans did.

SALARY IS PROBLEM Plenty of Farm Workers Can be Found It Farmers An Willing to l'ay Them, the Wages They Ask For. By Associated Press ALBANY. N. .. May M. Farms of New York slate will produce their normal contribution to the nation's ood supply this season if the farm- on are willing to pay the high wages demanded by farm labor, say oni- ctals ot the state department ot .arms and markets. These oniciais exnresa the belief that tbe farmer are beginning to realise that their products will command mgu prices next fall and that this will Induce ;heui to pay high wages to laborer and to plapt at least as many aeres as In former years. The farm workers will be Iounu jay department officials, when the farmer is willing to pay them the rages they want. The proDiem oi the farmer is the cost of labor, rather than shortage, they declare. Woodsmen who have been worxing ,n the logging camps during tbe winter are expected to go on mo farms in the summer. Besides, say tluto officials, the annual "back to ho land" migration from the cities ihould help to rellore the labor sit uation. Men who have been lured from the rural communities and 'owns by the higher wages offered In ihop and factory begin to long for outdoor life when the warm days :ome, they say, and little coaxing Is needed to make them exchange their vork on their bench or machine for open spaces In field and meadow. Planting has been delayed, but thts la attributed mostly to unfavorable weather conditions. There was dif ficulty early in the spring In obtain ing seed, fertilizer, farm Implements ind machinery, but the state officials my these commodities have been sup plied as a result of efforts of the da 'jurttnent of farms and markets In :o-nperatlon with railroad officials. Expeclatlon that the New York date farmer will see his duty and do it this year Is based In part upon his -ecord in 1917 and 1918, when farm aborers of the draft age were In the irmy. The state officials say that he farmer never before faced such I labor shortage but, nevertheless, hose were banner years in crop pro luctlon in New York state as well as or the bank balances for the farm ers. They declare that If the Tarmcr vlll pay the wages demanded, he will eeolve this year bigger profits than over before. It'x-ords Are ExiectI. PULLMAN. Wash., May 29.
