ESTACADA TO HAKE
FIGHT FOR BABY PRIZE
Babies having claims to physical
perfection in the Estacada country, or
in fact anywhere within East Clacka
mas County, may be entered in a show
to be held at Estacada, "August 27,
when the District fair under the sup
ervision of H. M. James is to take
place.
Superintendent James expects a
good many entries for the district and
he believes that a baby show in con
nection will prove a big attraction..
There will be three classes:
Babies up to 6 months.
Babies from 6 month to 1 year.
Babies from 1 year up to 2 years.
The judges will be physicians and
nurses, those most competent to de
termine physical perfection, less at
tention being paid to beauty than
health. Of course a combination of
beauty and health will be a winner.
It has been suggested that the win
ner of the local contest, be sent to
the state fair, where the child may en
ter into compettion with babies from
all over the state. Estacada has many
fine babies and it is believed, a repre
sentative from that district would win
in the state contest.
TAFT DEFENDERS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16. Redhot
denunciation of Representatives Bar
tholdt of Missouri and Mondell of
Wyoming, for their speeches defend
ing the Republican national conven
tion for renominating President Taft
was voiced in the house today by Rep
resentative Warburton of Washing
ton. "Those speeches," Warburton de
clared, "show how utterly unfitted and
unqualified both these gentlemen were
to act as judges in the contest at Chi
cago between President Taft and Col
onel Roosevelt. Both were grossly
partisan."
Analyzing the selection of the
Washington delegates to the Chicago,
convention, Warburton charged that
the Roosevelt delegates to the Wash
ington state convention were denied
tickets of admission and were exclud
ed from the hall. Warburton ridicul
ed Bartholdt's statement that he "had
a front seat" in the national commit
tee and listened .to all the contests.
"About 30 or 35 men sat in those
front seats," said Warburton, "but
they only heard such evidence as they
desired to hear. They sat in the
front seats and listened and listened
and listened, but in the end they re
membered only what the bosses want
ed them to remember:"
SPECIAL TERM TO TRY
N. Y. GRAFT CASES
NEW YORK, Aug. 16. At the re
quest of District Attorney Charles S.
Whitman, Governor John A. Dix to
day named Justice Goff to hold a spe
cial term of the state supreme court
in connection with the police graft
case. This means that speedy action
will follow the return by the grand
jury of indictments.
A report was current in police cir
cles today that Police Lieutenant
Charles Becker, held in the Tombs in
connection with the murder of Gam
bler Herman Rosenthal, is about
ready to confess. Gangsters of the
east side, it was said, led by gamblers
and dive keepers, are preparing to
raise a fund of $500,000 for the de
fense of suspects in the case. .
District Attorney Whitman announ
ced today that unless "Gyp the Blood"
and "Lefty Louie" were arrested be
fore next Tuesday he would offer a
reward of $5000 for their capture,
"dead or alive."

HACK BLAMES AUTOS
FOR TEAM'S SLUMP
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 16. "I must
admit," said Connie Mack, "that Bos
ton looks like the one best bet in the
American League but please don't
count my boys as through.
"The Athletics do seem hopelessly
behind, being nearly a dozen games
to the bad, but we haven't thought of
taking the count as yet. -
" I won't figure my team out of the
running until the figures show that
no matter what happens we cannot
win Then I will become reconciled
to fate.
"The Boston club is going finely, is
a well balanced aggregation, and with
its present lead looks like the logical
choice for first honors.
"Baseball .however, is a mighty un
certain pastime, and on the uncertain
ty of the game I am largely basing
my hopes for success.
"The season is only two-thirds over
and a lot of things can happen in 50
games. I know a lot of people are
ready to inter the world's champions,
but I hope to fool them.
"Too much automobile has played
havoc with my club.
"It rendered Morgan useless, and
has greatly diminished Bender's ef
fectiveness. The love of the whiz wa
gon has not helped some of the other
boys.
"A catching staff that has fallen
far below expectations has caused an
other big setback Reliable Ira Thom
as has been in poor condition all year,
despite his wonderful arm Lapp has
thrown poorly, while Egan has not
shown his real form. An injury that
has put Murphy out of the game for
the entire season has deprived me of
my 'clean up' man; reversal of form
by Collins and Barry and a terrific
slump in batting by my outfielders,
are just a few minor reasons why the
Athletics are not in front.
"I don't feel half bad over holding
down third, with hopes of doing bet
ter. "Washington is a wonderful team,
and with another pitcher as reliable
as Johnson would win out, I believe.
Griffith is sure to be a strong contend
er, but at this stage the Red Sox look
best."

HIS FATE TODAY
(Continued from page 1)
'a chain of crime perpetrated by Clar
ence Darrow, without using one word
of the testimony of Bert H. Franklin.'
Fredericks addressed the jury this
morning. His argument was made al
most coldly, without emotion or em
bellishment. Fredericks confined himself strictly
to the evidence and witnesses who
testified in the trial, attempting no
flights of oratory.
"I am going to look all the witness
es who have testified in this case
squarely in the face,'" he said, "I don't
say that all the witnesses for the de
fense in this trial have lied. Neither
do I say that all our witnesses have
told all the truth.
"I don't believe that all these wit
nesses, newspaper men and others,
who have said Franklin told then
Darrow was innocent were perjurers.
That Was Franklin's whole attitude.
Protecting Darrow, shielding the man
who gave him the money .
"I don't say Franklin told Darrow
everything he had done. Darrow fur
nished the money and Franklin the
brains and ingenuity.
"Watt, Steinman and Pierotte of
Venice did not speak the truth when
they said Franklin after appearing be
fore the grand jury, told them Darrow
was innocent. I think Frank E.
Wolfe didn't speak the truth. I believe
Hawley didn't speak the truth.
"When Darrow was "on the witness
stand he appeared to be speaking the
truth," Fredericks continued, "but you
cannot tell. Question an old fellow
like Bob Bain and you might be able
to tell whether he was telling the
truth. Question Darrow for a while
and you can't tell whether he is speak
ing the truth or not."
Fredericks then arraigned George
Behm, and declared that Behm's re
fusals to' answer questions before the
grand jury proved that he came to Los
Angeles from Chicago for an illegal
purpose to make his nephew, Ortie
McManigal, repudiate his confession,
which implicated the McNamaras.
Behm has testified that Darrow
brought him to Los Angeles for that
purpose.
"Now who got Behm to commit that
perjury before the grand jury?" Fred
ericks asked. "Darrow says that if
he is guilty, that Lecompte Davis is
guilty also. Lecompte Davis is not
before jou. If there is any evidence
against Davis he will be attended to
maybe he has been "already. At any
rate, it's not before you.
Fredericks went back to George
Behm's testimony. "Don't you suppose
Behm went back to Darrow and told
him what happened before the grand
jury? Now, there was a legal side to
this Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde business.
About August 9, about the same time
as the Behm incident Darrow hired
Franklin to investjgate jury venire
men in the McNamara case. Franklin
was hired to find out the religion, age,
politics, opinion as to the Times dis
aster, etc., of each prospective juror.
I'm not finding any particular fault

ter still, come in and

OREGON CITY ENTERPRISE
with that Now, let's see if a week
went by in August that Darrow did
not commit some crime to defeat the
ends of justice. Guy Biddinger came
to Los Angeles about that time.
"Darrow met Biddinger at the Al
exandria hotel and offered him $1000
to give up some evidence against the
McNamaras in the possession o Wil
liam J. Burns. Did Biddinger make
up that story? Biddinger was an hon
est man and told of Darrow's ways.
He might have cheated both Darrow
and Burns.
"When Darrow . bribed Burns he
showed his true character; it showed
"Pardon me," interrupted Earl Rog
ers, "that outside evidence was not let
in to show the character of the de
fendant." "That's correct," replied the prose
cutor. "It was admitted to show that
Darrow had a system of bribery and
crime "
Rogers again interrupted and Fred
ericks was obliged to abandon this
line of argument.
"Can't you see the similarity be
tween the Biddinger affair and those
other ones we have talked about?" he
asked (he jury.
Speaking of Ro'jeit P. Eaila, who
was bribed by Franklin to vole for ac
quittal in the McNamara case, but
who declared on the witness stand
that the bribery would not have influ
enced his verdict, Fredericks said
that if the McNamaras had admitted
their guilt in court Bain would still
have voted for acquittal.
Arguing on the subject of $10,000
the state alleges Darrow got from
Olaf Tveitmoe for bribery purposes,
Fredericks said:
"I had a little dispute with Hor
ace Appel on Thursday regarding
some evidence about the $10,0000. I
have looked up the testimony and
find we both were right and both
wrong, but : perhaps he was a littla
more right than I was."
He read a portion of the defendant's
testimony. Darrow was on his feet In
stantly. "Just a moment," interrupted Dar
row. "You haven't read all my testi
mony on that point."
"I have read all I'm going to, and
I've read it fairly!" retorted the dis
trict attorney.
"You have not," snapped Darrow.
"I have and I have listened careful
ly to your objection, and I don't be
lieve it was made in good faith."
Mr?
Responsible for so Few Marriages Nowadays

"No, I shall never marry.
I need no one to darn my
socks now. I always wear
If I wear a hole in heel, toe
or sole in four months, the
mills give me new ones free"
Adams Department Store
"I take exception to that," said Dar
row. He then stated briefly his testi
mony on the subject and the district
attorney resumed:
John R. Harrington said that Dar
row got that $10,000 from Tveitmoe,"
declared Fredericks, "and "
Another interruption. Judge Hutton
interrupted what threatened to devel
op into a spirited fight between the
attorneys and adjourned court for 10
minutes to allow Fredericks to recov
er his temper.
Fredericks resumed the Harrington
testimony.
"Harrington told us Darrow got the
money from Tveitmoe's bank. Then
we know where to look for the source
of the money. Doesn't that show Har
rington spoke the truth?"
"I object,"' said Darrow. "Such is
not the evidence."
Fredericks said: "I maintain that
this shows Harrington has some hon
esty in has carcass and would not be
a party to jury bribery."
Fredericks defended Harrington at
some length in a fiery speech, telling
of a number of ways in which Har
rington might have implicated Dar
row had he been so inclined. He read
to the jury that portion of Judge Hut
toa's instructions regarding the col
lateral charges against Darrow." Tho
defendant took exception to this pro
ceeding, and the court noted his ex
ception. '
Taking up the Diekelman affair,
Fredericks asserted that Diekelman
was a valuable state witness in the
McNamara case, having identified
James B. McNamara as the "J. B.
Bryce" who registered at a local ho
tel the day before the Times was
blown up.
"Bert Hannerstrome Darrow's
brother-in-law, took Diekelman from
Albuquerque to Chicago. Our detec
tive, George Home, brought him back
to Los Angeles, where he was wanted
in the presentation of our case.
"See how they worked on little
Diekelman. See how seductive they
were. You can't walk up and hit a
man in the head and tell him you want
him to come over to your side. You
have to coax him. They did. Oh, this
high minded defendant! They gave
Diekelman money to come back to
Los Angeles with. Oh, yes! Money
money, money! I almost hate money
since I came through that trial. I
could talk to you for an hour on that
Diekelman affair and tell you some
thing interesting every minute."
