A Voile county jury the other night
guilty of murder 1n killing and burn
. ing- up ills 19-year-old daughter' In
; Tillamook county, a year or two ago.
''"embree's wife and daughter were
aupposcd to have been killed and
burned up In their cabin at. Band
Lake, and Hembree, by his, conduct,
gave credence to the belief that he
was the murderer. Their bones or
. part of them, partially burned, were
' . . ... ... - . .t
' louna in me siove inai was in vne
house. Circumstances pointed to
Hembree. as the. murderer. He. was
',' tfiei In Tfllamook county some time
atgo on the charge of murdering his
wlfe, and the Jury stood 11 for mur
der and one for not guilty, and finally
the Jury found him guilty of man
slaughter. He was sentenced to the
penitentiary, and, after he had been
-there a few months, Governor Cham
berlain "paroled" him and turned him
loose. The people who had any
knowledge of the circumstances were
astonished that a governor would turn
such a fiend loose, unpunished. The
,,'ipeople of Tillamook county demanded
that he be tried on the Indictment for
murdering his daughter, and this has
resutled In his conviction of murder.
Whether the governor will again come
to his relief and turn him loose re
ft mains to be seen. He will evidently
not do so until after the election. Why
any governor could turn loose such a
fiend a Hembree Is a great mystery,
but he has turned loose a multitude
of convicted felons. Hembree was a
man of very bad reputation for more
. than SO years. The governor's record
aa a pardoner and "paroler" should
cause him to lose thousands of votes.
People who want the - laws enforced
.and criminals punished, should vote
against him. He has a very bad rec
ord for granting pardons, and many
murderer have been released by him.
That Editor H. II. Palmer, until re
cently In business, at Elgin where he
published the Elgin Leader, Is num
bered among the dead, is thebeltof of
the . distracted wife of the. missing
man. In a letter to La Grande par
ties from Hoqulam, Va.h., she reiter
ates hr statement made before she
left Elgin, namely, that her husband
had suicided. In the letter she states
that her husband has not been seen
In Portland, and that -she natural!;
taken quiet leave of his business with
the Intention of dodging problem
facing him. ,
It Is positively known to people of
this city, however, that Mr. Palmer
cashed cheeks In Portland after his
disappearance In La Grande about
three weeks ago last Wednesday night.
Those who have kept In touch with
the Incident arc disposed to believe
that Mrs. Palmer Is laboring under a
wrong Impression.

- Rerkeley, Cal., May 23. The big
Morrel airship, 4.10 feet long, blew up
when 200 feet in the air this nfornlng
and feJI a tangled mass of canvas and
ropes, Injuring seven men.
The big airship was scheduled to
make an ascent trip at noon and a
great crowd watched the ascent. When
the bag struck an upper current It
wobbled , considerably and the gas
pressure became unbalanced and rest
ed on the upper end of the bag. This
with the weight of five motors caused
the bag to burst. Men In the lower
section of the ship fell about 75 feet,
those in the upper about 200 feet.
The Injured are:
C. A. Morrell, Inventor, Jeg broken
and badly cut; C. Tipple, engineer,
crushed by engine; Justin Barber,

MAKE IT UNANIMOV8. "
Just now there appears to bo little
doubt but that It la Senator Cnke of
Oregon. Once the campaign started
it was speedily seen that the oft
boosted persona! popularity of George
the Governor, was not so almlulity
tout as It once was. Verinn's tlilnps
that some folks have known nhout
our chief executive have come to Unlit,
and a lot of folks are today doubtful
If George whs such a whale of a man
after all.
The nearer Oregon makes It unan
imous for Cake, the better for Ore
gon. There are n few places where
party politics still count; they don't
usually In city, county and district af
fairs; but they do In national affairs,
especially In the upper house of ron
gress. where the majority party gets
what It wants and the minority sits
tight and waits. Oregon wants a lot
of things from congress: It can never
get thsm through a democratic sena
tor. Between the men personally the Is
sue is not drawn; It Is not a personal
campaign; If it waa Mr. Cake would
not be on the defensive.
It Is also remembered that Cake
waa one of the republicans who had
the nerve to stand on a statement No.
1 platform when It looked as though
that meant defeat; he stood for the
popular election of the United State
senator whether It profited him or
not; Chamberlain ha stood for It be
cause It was hi sole chance of ever
landing the place.

smirched and Oregon's delegation to the national convention will bo
Placed in a humiliating position. For the effect It will have on the
