THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, 1906. OAS SYMPATHIZER ASSAULTS EDITOR Clerk in Employ of Teal Minor Tries to Harm E. B. Piper. . & STRIKES HIM WHILE SEATED Demands That Orconlan Cease Its Policy in Regard to the Gas Fight, and Then He Be comes Belligerent. W. A. Johnson, a clerk employed in the law offices of Teal &. Minor, made a. vio lent asF&ult upon E. B. Piper, managing editor of The Oregonlan. in the latter's private office, at 10:30 o'clock yesterday moraine The fellow's action was prompt ed by resentment of criticisms by The OreconJan of President C. F. Adams and J. K. Teal, of the Portland Gas Company, whom he described as his personal friends. E. W. "Wright, of The Orcgonian edito rial staff, was in the office at the time, and when Johnson sprang at Mr. Piper, who was seated in front of his desk, Mr. Wright instantly Interfered, grappling with the fellow and quickly pinioning his arms and thrusting him helpless into the corner. Before the intruder, who is about 22 years old. and poHverfully built, was rendered helpless by Mr. Wright, there was a slight exchange of blows between Mr. Piper and his assailant, no great injury being inflicted, however. Goes to Summon Police. Mr. Piper then left Mr. Wright in charge of the captive, and went out of the room to summon the police. Johnson prevailed upon Mr. Wright to release him. promising to behave. But no sooner was lit? released than he attempted an assault with a chair. Others came Into the room and the younjr thug was thrown out. He immediately set about escaping from the building before the arrival of the po lice. Running down the eight flights of Flairs to the ground floor, he used the broken handle of a broom to keep off S. B. Vincent, local manager of the Asso ciated Press, who sought to intercept the fellow's flight. Lloyd McDulln. a messen ger boy, followed the culprit, who hurried, lmtlcss. east on Alder street, passed through the Meier & Frank store and made direct to the Security Savings &. i rust company s bank, where ho entered the office of President C. F. Adams with out the formality of knocking. Mr. Teal Expresses Regret. Shortly after the affair. Mr. Teal. John son's employer, called in person at Mr. Piper's office and expressed deepest re gret at the occurrence, saying he was not in any way responsible for it. I-ater. warrants were issued at the po lice station for Johnson, charging him wiin assault and threatening to kill. The warrants were served by Detectives Hart man and Vaughn, and the offender was taken to the station, where he was booked. He was released upon furnishing bail In the sum of J400. For assault, he was re quired to put up J1o0. and on the other ciiarge jroO was demanded. The case will be called for preliminary hearing this morning at 10 o clock, before Judge Cam eron. J. G. Wilson signed as surety on Johnson s bond. uonm-on has been a resident of Portland for six months past. He hails from South Carolina, and is said to be a graduate of lale and a former col lose athlete. Details of the Encounter. Johnson came into Mr. Piper's office very shortly before 10:30 o'clock. He was unknown to Mr. Piper, who was engaged at his desk reading- some let ters. "I want to see Mr. Scott," said the visitor. -n. ocoii is not in tnc city,' was the reply. "Are you one of the editors?" "Yes, I am." "Have you chaise in Mr. Scott's ab sence?" "I have." Johnson then approached the front of the desk of the managing- editor, who for the first time noticed that he was evidently laboring- under great excitement. v ell. you II do." he continued. "I am a friend of Mr. Teal and of Mr. Adams of the g-as company. I came -to nerve notice on you to quit these per sonal attacks on those sentlemen." v hat Is your name?" asked the managing- editor. Finally Gives His Name. 'That is none of your busl ness, was me repiy. i jrive you warning; right now that these attacks must cease and cease now or you'll hear from me. "What is your name?" he was again asked. "That is none of your busi ness, but if it givos you any satisfac tion T will tell it to you. My name is Johnson." "Very well. Mr. Johnson. I will take the matter under consideration." "See that you do or you'll hear from me." said Johnson, and he retired. As he went out E. W, Wright, of the editorial staff of The Oregonlan. came Into the office and Mr. Piper asked him: "Did you see that young Tellow who Just went out?" "Yes." "Did you know him?" "So." Visit of an Anarchist. "Well, I'm tired of being threatened and I am going to find out who insti gated this thing." Mr. Piper had re ceived a similar call last week from an anarchist who objected to any crit icism of Herr Most or Eugene Debs, and disappeared without leaving trace ' of his identity. Mr. Piper then went Into the hall way and called to Johnson as he was getting into the elevator to return. He did so Going back Into the office Mr. Piper again seated himself and said to Mr. Johnson: "Now. let us talk this thing over. "Who sent you here?" 'That is none of your busi ness." was the reply. "It Is my business and I propose to make it my business. I don't Intend to be subjected to Ae threats of every fellow like you that chooses to come Into this office." "Well, I'll show you," was John son's retort, as he Jumped upon Mr. Piper, who was still seated. Mr. Wright Immediately grabbed Johnson and prevented him doing any serious bodily harm to the man he had thus assailed. Johnson, however, was in the most violent furj He struggled and swore and, getting his arms free, struck Mr. Piper two or three times, the blows being returned. Visitor Is Pinioned. Mrv Wright succeeded in pinioning Johs so&s&rUBd bta arms asd legs asd tkta stood him up In the corner. Mr. riper then said: "Hold him, and I'll go and call the police," and he went out to Instruct the telephone girl to do so. "Let me go," howled the fellow to Mr. Wright. "Well, will you behave yourself?" "Yes. I don't have any quarrel with you. That fellow that went out is tnc one I'm after." "If you will sit down and talk it over will let you go," responded Mr. Wright. "All right." he said. Mr. WHght then released the pug nacious captive from his powerful grasp. The fellow immediately picked up a chair and attempted to assault him with that. Mr. Piper meanwhile had returned. In company with Mr. Vincent, local man ager of the Associated Press, and they took part In the effort to subdue Johnson. He somehow worked his way Into Mr. Scott's room and managed to close the door. J'Ices to Elevator. Mr. Wright and Mr. Piper hurried to another entrance, thinking he would at tempt to go out that way. but he came back through the ilrst door and hurried to the elevator. Mr. Vincent letting him go. He supposed the purpose was to put the fellow out of the office. It was not, however. It was intended to detain him until the police came to find out, if pos sible, exactly who he was and who in spired him to make his call. While In the elevator Mr. Wright and Mr. Piper, finding out where the fellow was. told the elevator boy to take him down. There were a half dozen people on hand by that time, but the fellow came out of the elevator and walking up to Mr. Piper, without provocation, struck at him again. He was Immediately grabbed by a halt dozen persons and thrown down the stair way, from whence, he made his escape down stairs, running all the way down. A messenger boy. Lloyd McDulln, of the City Messenger Company, who had seen the affair, followed Johnson down and out Into the street, where, hatlcss and without his umbrella, he entered the store of Meier & Frank, passed on through to Morrison street, and -went directly to the bank of the Security Savings & Trust Company. Here he walked back, and without hesitation or knocking, entered the private office of Mr. C. F. Adams. who !. resident of the banK and tne gas company. He closed the door after him. The messenger boy waited for a lew minutes for the fellow to reappear. Tir ing of his quest he came away, leaving Johnson In the bank.

MALLEY WRITES LETTER TO WORD Asks Him to State His Position Before the Democrats of the County. WHAT A REFUSAL MEANS If Tom Word Is Nominated 31allcy ricdscs Him His Support Will Word Do the Same If .Ma I Icy Is Selected? . I MALLEY CHALLENGES TOM WORD. Mr. Tom Word. City. Dear Sir: You and I are candidates for the pri mary nomination of the ueniocraiic party for Sheriff of Multnomah Coun- ,ty. I have announced that. If de feated. I will support the nominee of my party. It tcem to me that the party is entitled to know if sou will do thr same. With a view to giving you an opportunity of answering this question, I address to you this letter. Refusal will be accepted by many Democrats as evidence of bad faith on your part. Respectfully. M. J. MALLEY. Democrats arc agog over the question whether Tom Word will support Joe Mai- ley for Sheriff, should the latter win the party nomination against him in the primaries, three weeks from next Friday. Malley has declared that he would work for Word. In case he himself should fall to win the nomination, but all efforts to elicit a similar promise from Word and his managers have failed. Many members of the party are asking each other whether Word will bolt, in case of his defeat at the primaries, and run Independent: in fact, they suspect that his boomers arc counseling him to refuse to make the promise. In order that he may still have a chance at the office should he fall to win his party's nom ination. Enters Against Protest. Word has entered the primaries against the protest of a large number of his sup porters, who declared he did not need the' Democratic nomination and that if he should try for it and fall, he would weaken himself. The opinion is often heard among them that even yet Word should withdraw from the primaries and run as a nonpartisan candidate. Malley sent the question to Word yester day, through the mails, in the form of a letter, which Is printed In the fore going. He was urged to do this by his chief workers, after they had to "smoke Word out." May Be Police Chief". Talcs are floating about to the effect that Word Is slated for Mayor Lane's Chief of Police, should he fall to regain the office of Sheriff. It Is said that this deal was agreed on last Spring when 1-anc was running for Mayor and then again that the compact was not entered Into until later. Grltzmacher Is only acting chief and would be retired to a capruin, while Bruin would retain his place as head of detectives. CANDIDATES ADDRESS MJ2M.BERS OP THE CLUB. Judge Webster Favors Keeping the County Jail Prisoners at Work on the Hoads. The Eighth Ward Republican Club held a well-attended meeting last evening in the Justice Court. Dan Kellahcr presid ed. Many candidates were present, and all were given an opportunity of present ing their views. Judge Lionel Webster, who is a candidate for re-election as County Judge, was invited to address the meeting. Judge Webster responded in a plain talk about county affairs, and re marked that the business of Multnomah County was not small, amounting to near ly 51000 a day In expenses, beside the growing probate business. He spoke of the direct primary law. and said It had made a very great change, for the reason that April 20 it made every voter a member of the convention that would pass on the fitness of the candi dates, and placed a very great responsi bility on the shoulders of the voters to make that decision. It had been the pol icy of the present administration, he said, to wipe out the debt, and this had been done. Judge Webster declared very em phatically that Multnomah Counts should never owe a dollar. Of course, the tax payers had paid the debt, but the court had provided the policy that led to the cancelling of the debt and opened the way for needed improvements. Judge Webster challenged any criticism that might be made on the policy of the ad ministration. He showed how the county prisoners had been employed ln the con struction of roads at a very great profit to the county and taxpayers. He had found some 250 prisoners in the jail, and they mainly had been put to work. Judge Webster -said that the men sent to jail ought to work. They were not sent there for a good time, and he had no patience with the policy of coddling the prisoners, nor of abusing them. He believed that the policy of making the prisoners work was best for the men in jail, and also good from an economical standpoint. It taught them how to work, so that when they left the Jail they could get a job. "If you don't want the prisoners to work," he declared, "don't vote for me for County Judge, for I certainly shall require them to work." He spoke of the plans to construct the best roads in Multnomah County In the United States, using crushed rock from the Kelly Butte, where stockades were to be built, and where the prisoners were to be housed. He also said that a brick county hospital was to be built. After dis cussing fairly and frankly the acts of the administration, from the payment of the county debts, stopping Interest charges, and outlining plans for the future. Judge Webster closed his talk, when he was heartily applauded. W. B. Steele, formerly County Commis sioner, and now a candidate for nomina tion for that office, on Invitation, made a short talk. County Commissioner LIghtner, who was present, asked Mr. Steele te define his position on the ques tion of employing the prisoners In ths construction of county roads, when Mr. Steele said: "I am in favor ef keeping the county Jrtaeaera la ui till tae clete f tadr sentences. I don't think that there I . any economy In employing the prisoners l in work. They do as they please and work as much as they want to. When I employed some prisoners in building a winsr of the asylum at Salem, I did not find It profitable to employ them. Some men are put In Jail for assault for a short time, and It is not right to make them work. So. sir. I favor keeping the county prisoners In jail until their sentences have been completed. If put to work outside thoy are not serving their sentences." Mr. LIghtner. In reply, declared that the experience in working prisoners at Linn ton had been most successful. They worked well, he said, and It cost only 42 cents to handle a yard of crushed rock that usually cost Jl. Short talks were made by V. C. Dun ning. Joseph Bcveridgc, J. S. Backostos, J. H. Reld. A. D. Kccnan and W. G. Kerns, when the meeting adjourned until next Monday evening. RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT They Arc Drawn in Memory of the Late James R. Stoddard.
