PAPERS LIABLE, HOWEVER .Mfld.Tlt Cannot Be Made Basis of Perjury C'harjce If False, hut. Journals Printing Fulton- Denial Thought Libelous. 3ALEM. Or.. April 17. (Sjieiia.l.'l That a libel suit will probably be brought against an Albany paper won substan tially the same grounds as those which iormd the baaia of the suit of J. S. Hmlth against Senator C W. Fulton, was asserted by U H. MoMahan. attorney for Smith, just after Judge Burnett sus tained the demurrer to the complaint in the Fulton case. Though the court cave McMahan two flays in which to file an amended com plaint, the attorney saya that the court's ruling on the demurrer practically puts his cse out of court and he 1U have it dismissed. The reason the demurrer was sustained was that the affidavit made by Smith ould not be made the basis of a perjury rharce, if not true, and therefore when Fulton asserted that the affidavit was false he did not make such a charge as would afford grounds for a suit for siander. But MoMahan says that news paper that printed Fulton's atatement that Smith's affidavit was false are liable for lilel and he will iret his case before the court by suing one of them. "The amount of damages that may ba recovered is a minor consideration." said McMahan. "What we want Is a thorough investigation of the facts so that It may be determined who is telling the truth about the bribery of members of the Leg islature of 197. Fulton says Smith is a liar and we want to get all the parties in court and on the witness stand under oath, where they can tell what they know and be cross-examined." 1'liAMCS THREATEN Miirox Opcra House and Two Dwelling Burn Loss About $6500, MILTON1.
