The State vs. Otto F. Olson was
called Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock
at the County Court house. Olson, who
hart entered his plea of not guilty, by
his attorney, George C. Brownell, with
drew his nlea of not guilty, and enter
ed plea of guilty to the charge of for
gery. Mr. Brownell submitted a report
from Dr. House, of Portland, an alien
ist, on Mr. Olson's mental state. It
was to the effect that Mr. Olsou's
mind had become unbalanced by deep
studies in electricity, occultism, clair
voyance, and hypnotism, and to the
extent that he believed himself under
the control of unseen forces that im
pelled him to do acts that he would
not do under rational circumstances.
Judge McBiide stated that the report
did not satisfy him that Olson't insan
ity is of such as Is reclgnized by law.
He passed sentence of imprisonment in
the penitentiary, of not less than two
or more than 20 yeara, at the pleasure
of the Governor.
Olson embezzled over $4000, of the
funds of the Willamette school dis
trict, and for a long time covered the
theft, due partly because of the con
fidence his associates and directors
placed In him. He was arrested Feb
ruary 13th last on a charge covering
the above and was placed in the coun
ty jail and his bonds fixed at $5000,
but Efforts to obtain bail were, unsuc
cessful. Olson had no excuses to make
for his guilt, and wanted to have the
agony over without delay, but his
family and friends persuaded him
that he had a fighting chance to es
cape, and when he was arrainged last
week, he entered a plea of not guilty
to two indictments returned by dis.

school district and another on a for.
gery charge. Arrangements had been
made to bring him to trial on the for
gery charge, when yesterday he con
cluded to have his own way and enter
a plea of-guilty.
Ol3on has been a resident of Ore
gon CUy and Willamette for many
years. He was superintendent of the
power station of the Portland General
Electric Company up to the time of his
arrest, and when investigations were
made It was found he borrowed money
right and left, forging names of sev
eral well-known people, among them
that of Rudolih Koerner, and in this
manner he obtained $250 frdln H. C.
Stevens on a note signed by Koeruer
and himself. Olson was a trustee and
financial agent of the Methodist Epis
copal church, having entire charge of
the funds of that body, and he abused
this confidence to obtain money with
which to pursue his mining schemes.
He was simply crazy on mines.
In the matter of the charge of as

against Alex Robinson, the latter was
convicted of assault Saturday, for
striking Barnholser with a lantern

GOOD TRIMMING
PAPERMAKERS INVADE CHERRY
PICKERS TERRITORY AT
'SALEM.
HAND OUT THRASHING
Story of Sunday's Game at Salem Told
by Courier's Special
Reporter.
The Papermakers Invaded the limits
of the sedate city of Salem Sunday af
ternoon, for their first game away
from home, and celebrated this occa
sion by white-washing , the Cherry
pickers 4 to 0.
RBbinson was the box artist for the
Oregon City aggregation, and he dis
tributed his benders in such a choice
manner that the Salemlts were only
able to negotiate three times, two of
these being scratch hits..
For the six Innings, three men an
inning were all that faced the local
men, while only one man' reached the
keystone sack, being advanced theTe
by a base on balls. The entire visiting
team played the game at all times,
and but one error was chalked against
them. Locke, the former outfielder,
played thet second, bag in place of
Griffith, who released, and was there
at all times with the Jingles; as was
Hill, Sater and Kruger. Jerman, who
did the twirling for the Salem team,
pitched a good game, but his support
was far from good. He was touched
for six hits, half of them being two
sackers, which were made by Hill,
Kelt and Locke.
That Hill boy, by the way, smashed
out two safe ones out of four times
up, which added to his four out of five
times up in the game with the Frakes,
brings his average up. Chapin seemed
to find Jerrnan's delivery easy, for he
duplicated Hill's performance.' "Fast
fielding by both teams kept the game
scoreless until the fourth canto, when
the Papermakers decided to get busy.
Sater knocked one over second, and
Hill topped a grounder towards sec
ond, which was juggled, advancing Sa
ter to second, while the past first
sacker reposed on the initial bag, Cha
pin, , the "deaf mute", rapped one to
the central garden fence, scoring Sa
ter. This hit looked good for two
sacks, but Hill was slow in getting off
of second, and was caught between
there and third, but he landed safe on
the latter sack, while Chapin purl
oined second. Kelt contributed a dou
ble, scoring Hill and Chapin. In the
eighth, the Papermakers took another
run. Hill Smashed the sphereold into
the hands of the left Holier, who stop
ped It, and the runner was safe on
first. He stole second, and romped
home on Chaplns corking two-bagger
to left. On the last of the ninth, with
Laurence on first, and one man out,
things looked rosy for the Cherry
pickers, but their joy was rudely
blighted by the brilliant fielding of
Kruger, who grabbed a liner from the
bat of Harper, that looked good for a
two sacker, and doubled Laurence out
at first,

man of worth and ability and can con
duct the business of coroner If elect
ed to the satisfaction of the people

It has been a very noticable argu
ment among his Republican friends
that he will be given a very fair show
at the polls from their hands, due
somewhat to the fact of the common
Idea of changing about Is but fair
play. As there seems to -be little
consistency In turning down any one
candidate for office because he may
have served three terms and electing
another for some office who has al
ready served about 1G years.
He Is a bright, upright business
man and the voters will do themselves
justice to consider Mr. Myers before

PEOPLE OUT8IDE OREGON CITY,
ALSO ARE TAKING GREAT IN
TEREST IN THE MATTER-
SCHOOL SUPT'S. SUPPORT
Prof. Joseph W. Gray Has 8upport of
County at Large for Position
on County School.
The probability of there being erect
ed a high school at one groat center
of population in Clackams County,
practicallyy at the expense or. the bal
ance of the county, Is itt tho picsevt
time a subject that is occupying the
minds of the voters throughout the
county, wherever one may travel, a
most dissenting voice may be heard
against the feature of a high school
being erected at one place and then
asking the communities remote from
such a center of population to assist
In the erection and maintal nance. In
the matter of the support of such a
proposition, calling for the aid of a
large portion of the county In the
building of a high school In any one
city, Joseph W. Gray, the Independent
candidate for Couny School Superin
tendent has opposed from his first en
tering into the work and It was for
the furtherance of the project mainly,
that he was Induced to make an effort
along the line of candidacy to the end
that he might be of some assistance in
having the matter of the eounty high
school properly brought before the peo
ple of Clackamas County, and Prof.
Gray has been working very earnest
ly in this connection.

more to his fellow being outside than
inside the prison walls, and that there
is a great chance for him, if he will
mend his ways, yet all the while the
watchful eyes of the law are upon
him, somewhat secretly and there's
his promise to one who has really
saved him from shame and degreda
tion, he may be put to work if old
enough, or sent to school and each
Saturday promptly at 1 p. m., he must
report to the kindly Judge, who con
tinues to advise, and state his con
duct under oath for the past week,
his whereabouts after school hours and
evenings. His language, and general
habits. He must write letters to the
Judge, who replies, showing where Im
provements should be made In their
letters. They report not only their
own conduct, but are - taught police

constables In maintaining law and or

power for good is exerted on a way

is slowly but surely grasping the noble
motives that figure so strongly In the
great men at the heads of govern
ment, state and commercial affairs.
At the present there are about 22
dependent children under the care of
Judge Dimlck and it Is a most inter
esting spectacle to observe the Inter,
est, reserve and faithfulness, shown
by his charges. In a recent communi
cation from one boy the Judge actu
ally snatched from the clanking gates
of the penitentiary, he states the
work seemed a little hard for him on ,
the farm, where he was paroled to be
given a chance to work his way back
to manhood, but he assured the Judge
of his sincerity and faithfulnes to
him and that he should never again
have occasion to pass sentence upon
him at the bar. This Is only one out
of hundreds received.
In this work the Judge Is receiving
the commendation of many of our
citizens, motherse and fathers, who
have the welfare of their children at
heart and can see the need of some
such broad minded and whole heart-
ed man as Judge Dimlck to watch
over the wayward boys and girls of
the vicinity, and well may they lend
their aid in the work that Is even
more far reaching than we can at pres
ent conceive of. "Even as ye have
