SUICIDE OP
MOTORMAN
THADDEUS WRIGHT TAKES HIS
LIFE BEFORE HIS GRIEF
STRICKEN WIFE.
HE HAD BEEN DRINKING
Belief It General That He was Trying
to Frighten His Wife and Did
Not Intend to Fire the
Revolver.
"Look here," said Thadtleus Wright
to his wife, and with these words ho
pulled tho trigger of a 38-callbre Smith
& Wesson and sent a bullet crashing
through his heart
Wright, who would have been 31
years of age next month, lived in Mil
waukee. He was. a motorman on the
Mount Tabor branch of the Oregon
Water Power & Railway Company, and
was known as a "still" drinker. At
the Inquest hold Monday night by
Coroner Holman the testimony of tho
weeping wife developed the fact that
the unfortunate man came In from
his work at 9 o'clock Monday morn
ing, apparently sober, and as soon as
he reached home emptied a whisky
bottle. Then he left the house, his
wife waiting for his return until near
ly 11 o'clock. When he came In she
upbraided him for his conduct and
this angered him.
Without eating breakfast he donned
his working clothes and left he
nouse, returning a little before 2
o clock, staggering through the'

of the kitchen, where his wife was
working.. Seeing him with the sun.
she screamed and ran out of the back
door Just as he fired. ,
While there were other witnesses to
the tragedy, Mrs. Wright's story to
the Jury was clear, and there Is a gen
eral belief that the dead motorman
was intoxicated to the extent that he
did not realize Just what he was do
ing, and was simply making a un-
play, and did not Intend suicide. The
bullet entered his right breast and
ranged diagonally upwards, severlne
an artery leading to the heart and
coming out of his back below the left
shoulder blade lodging in the wall.
v right formerly conducted a saloon
in the North End at Portland, and last
Summer was a patrolman for the rail
way company at the Oaks. He had
purchased three lots In Milwaukee and
was engaged In building a little home
during his spare time when off duty.
The Coroner's Jury returned a verdict
that he came to his death from a re
volver wound, from his own hand
while in an intoxicated condition.
Dixon to Support the Ticket.
Canby, Ore., April 22,1908,
Editor Enterprise: The primaries
are over and I failed to receive the
nomination for representative, though
i nave me tonor of being the high
est man among those who failed.
While I would have appreciated the
honor of representing the people of
Clackamas county In the legislature,
I do not feel chagrined In the least,
and desire to thank my party for the
faith and confidence shown In me by
tne good vote that I received. I feel
confident that If the full country vote
had been polled I would have been
nominated, but the heavy rain on pri
mary day kept my friends at home.
They were so confident I would re
ceive the nomination anyway, that
they did not make the effort that Is
necessary to overcome the heavy vote
in Oregon City that never goes to any
candidate living outside of Oregon
City. This Is one feature against the
primary law, but I would not by any
means sacrifice the primary law on
this acount- The right of the people
to decide wno their nominees shall be
Is greater than the election or defeat
of any candidate who aspires to pub
lic office.
I believe It is the duty of every can
dldate who meets defeat In the pri
maries to support his party nominees,
and I shall be as loyal to my ticket as
If I had never been a candidate. Any
candidate who knifes his ticket be
cause his opponent receives the nom
ination over him In the primaries, Is
not worthy of any office within the
gift of his party.
I shall continue my fight against the
single tax and shall sec that a de
positor's guarantee law goes on the
statute books. If the legislature fails
to pass It, I shall put it on the ballot
two years from now with the Initia
tive and referendum.
Trusting that all my friends will
line up for the support of the Republi
can ticket In June, I am
Sincerely yours,
GEORGE W. DIXON.
