THE MORNING OREGONTAN, FRIDAY, 3IAY 8, 1908.
ELLIOTT IS NOT
OF SELF
Admits on Stand All Crimes
Charged to Him and to
C. Sam Smith.
VERACITY IS QUESTIONED
AVitnesses to Be Called to Disparage
His Testimony Williamson's Re
fusal to Buy Smith's Hay Only
Motive Shown So Far.
PRIN IS V LLL.E, Or., May T. (Special.)
Larkln Elliott told his story this afternoon
to a Crook County jury before Judge
Bradshaw. He related the burning- of the
"Williamson sheep-shearing plant. 18 miles
east of Prlneville, March 25; also of the
cutting of a mile of wire fence on land
leased by "Williamson, and distributing
poison in Williamson's sheep corral. He
told of planning to dynamite the city
residence of the ex-Congressman and of
the plan to burn the forthcoming wool
clip if he did not In the meantime change
his residence.
This startling tale was along the lines
of previous rumors ai.d was listened to
by a crowded courtroom, where women
Larkla Elliott, Wna Swears on
Stand to All Crimea Charged to
Him and to C. Sam Smith.
were as plentiful as men. These rumors
have been heard so much before that
little surprise was shown when the story
was given under oath from the stand.
Elliott Is Embarrassed.
Elliott was plainly embarrassed at first
and gave his answers in an extremely
halting manner, as if he was either dis
tressed at being in the presence of so
many people or was trying to remember
his acts. He recovered his self-possession
after being questioned a half hour and
thenceforth was cool and collected.
In substance his confession implicated
C. Sam Smith, ex-Sheriff of Crook County,
and his 14-year-old son, Stanley Smith,
in the cutting of the wire fences, which
was the last act in the drama before the
arrest of the participants. In the burn
ing of the sheepshearlng plant and ranch
house and the attempted burning of the
barn. Elliott said Smith and himself
operated without assistance. The other
acts, dynamiting the city home of "Wil
liamson and burning his next wool clip
while on the wagon, were only planned.
Elliott was badly tangled in his dates
In, cross-examination, showing an ex
tremely bad memory and considerable
hesitancy before giving hie answers.
His cross-examination was almost over
with at 6 o'clock, when court adjourned
for dinner.
Does Not Spare Himself.
In the evening the courtroom was, if
anything,, .more crowded than in the
afternoon. Elliott was again placed on
cross-examination, and the most rigid
questioning failed to shake his testi
mony. Throughout examination and
cross-examination he spared himself
not In the least, assuming; all blame
where it was due and offering no ex
cuses for his acts.
He also did not spare Smith. After
being on the stand for three and one
half hours, he was allowed to return to
his seat.
Wei Allen, one of Williamson's herd
ers, was the next witness called. He
testified to the distribution of the con
centrated lye mixed with, salt "and
squirrel poison around the corral, and
also to the burning of his tent and
bedding on March 27. With the con
clusion of his testimony, court was ad
journed till tomorrow morning.
Motive for Elliott's Acts.
. A number of witnesses will be called
In the morning who will swear that El
liott's veracity is of very doubtful
character. Without ample corrobora
tion of Elliott s tale, it is generally
thought here that the state's case
against Smith is extremely weak.
The only motive shown up so far was
Williamson's refusal to buy Smith's hay
or ranch, both of which he wanted to
sell. Williamson wanted a small part
of Smith's pasture land, which he
would not sell unless he sold his whole
ranch in a body. This consists of sev
eral thousand acres of alfalfa meadow
and range land, and Is valuable, but
Williamson did not want it all. Ho
also went elsewhere last Fall to buy
hay, leaving a large quantity on
Smith's hands. These two acts, the
prosecution claims, constitute the mo
tive. . ...

PAUPERS VOTE HEAVY BONDS
Taxpayers of Liberty Object to Way
Election Carried.
SALEM, Or., May 7. (Special.) The
taxpayers of Liberty school district,
south of Salem, recently had the novel
and unpleasant experience of having
$6000 bonds voted by men who were
not only non-taxpayers, but who were
paupers receiving support from the
county. The question of issuing bonds
for the purpose of erecting a large
school house had been submitted at a
special election. At that election the
issuance of bonds was ordered by a
vote of two majority. It was discov
ered that two men who voted for the
issuance of bonds are being cared for
by the county. This situation has en
raged some of the heavy property
owners of the district and they are
planning to test the legality of the
proceedings.

YAMHILXi TREASURER MUST
TURN IN BUT PART OP TAXES.
Outgrowth of Allegation That in
Proportionment of Taxes Yam
hill's Share Is Unfair.
M'MINNVILLE, Or., May 7. (Spe
cial.) Circuit Judge William Galloway,
of the Third Judicial District, today
signed an injunction to prevent rfce
Treasurer of Yamhill County from pay
ing, and the State Treasurer from col
lecting, the state tax, apportioned to
this county for the present year, except
the eum of $23,117.03.
This is an outgrowth of the allega
tion that when the taxes for the vari
ous counties in the state were propor
tioned Yamhill .was obliged to pay an
amount too large in proportion to the
assessment. The complaint in part
states:
"The plaintiff county alleges that the
said Board, when making the appor
tionment amongst the several counties
of the state, in January, 1908, did not
base its computation upon the actual
value of the assessable property of the
several counties, or of any of such
counties, but instead, apportioned the
portion or part of the said revenue for
state purposes by the .said several coun
ties in an arbitrary manner and by an
arbitrary rule, without reference to the
relative value of the assessable prop
erty of the several counties, without
constitutional or legal authority."

Nominated by Chehalls County
Bar lor Superior Judge.
ABERDEEN, Wash., May .
(Special.) Ben Sheeks, who. has
been nominated by the bar of
Chehalls County for Superior
Court Judge, is a lawyer of
much distinction in the State of
Washington and in Utah. Be
fore coming to Washington he
was connected with some of the
largest fee cases in Utah and
was counsel for Brlgham Young
in several suits, notably that of
the divorce proceedings in which
Anna Eliza Young sued for a
separation from the Mormon
leader. Mr. Sheeks was counsel
for the City of Tacoma in its
fight against the Tacoma Light
& Water Company, which sold
to the city its franchise for
$1,750,000, and was afterward
compelled to return $787,000 of
the amount as an excessive pay
ment. Mr. Sheeks has never
sought office. In the present
case he Informed the members
of the bar that he did not seek
the position but. If nominated,
would accept, and if the people
desired him to serve them they
could elect him.
Plies managers in the Senatorial fight
four years ago. and who now heads the
Plles-Ankeny movement in King County,
was temporary chairman of the conven
tion, and by unanimous consent was
made chairman of the delegation to the
state convention, with power to name
all committees.
Fight Over Chairmanship.
A fight developed three days ago over
the chairmanship between McGraw and
H. C. Gill, both Piles supporters. Mc
Graw had an overwhelming majority and
this morning Gill agreed to withdraw and
accept the permanent chairmanship,
which had been offered him. Some of the
McGraw supporters demanded that the
fight go to a vote, but McGraw per
sonally Insisted that Gill was not only
his friend but a supporter of Piles and
ought to be recognized.
A fight was threatened over the elec
tion of state delegates. It was pro
posed by the committee on permanent
organization that each Senatorial Dis
trict choose one-eighth of a delegate,
three extra men being given the Thirty-seventh,
which has an unusually
large proportion of the King County
population. A proviso in the commit
tee's report, which the convention
adopted, was that delegates must be
residents of the district from which
they were elected. John L. Wilson was
defeated in the Thirty-fourth District,
where he resides, but returned as a del
egate from the Thirty-seventh, at the
request of W. T. Dovall, a law partner
of E. C. Hughes and Maurice McMicken,
who are business associates of Wilson.
Wilson to Be Contested.
The point of order raised by Eugene
Chllds, that Wilson's election was ir
regular, was Ignored by Chairman Gill,
who also declared an appeal from his
decision to have been lost. Senator P.
L. Allen, one of the Piles leaders, who
was chairman of the permanent organ
ization committee, Immediately took of
ficial transcripts of the record to pro
test Wilson's election as a delegate be
fore the Spokane convention. Inas
much as the complete Plies programme
was unanimously agreed upon in the
delegation to the State Convention, the
fight may be dropped, on the ground
that Piles' victory was so complete it
cannot be misunderstood. .
Platform of Convention.
The platform adopted indorsed Na
tional, state and county Republican ad
ministrations; indorses the work of the
Congressional delegation, approves
Postmaster-General Meyers' postal

GOVERNMENT MAKES RULE
Heeds Complaints Filed by Ranch
ers Who Contended That Naviga

to a Big Industry.
ABERDEEN, Wash.. May 7. (Special.)
A notice received from the Government
by the Wishkah Boom Company to stop
all splash dam operations on the Wish
kah River and keep a free channel has
caused consternation among the logging
companies on that stream. The order is
the result of the persistent efforts of
the ranchers along the river, who com
plain that the stream Is monopolized by
the Wishkah Boom Company to the ex
clusion of transportation.
If the order is made permanent It will
compel the logging companies practi
cally to quit business. The logging com
panies affected are as follows: Haynes
& Preston, Coats Logging Company,
Aberdeen Lumber & Shingle Company,
Boeing & McCrimmon, Murray & Black
well, O. K. Logging Company, Wishkah
Logging Company, Larkln Logging Com
pany. It is estimated that there .are now
about 25,000.000 feet of logs in booms on
the river and many of the companies
have large quantities of down timber
In the woods, bucked and ready for the
river. Logging on the Wishkah is ex
pensive at best and if the dams cannot
be splashed It is entirely impracticable.
The different logging companies are,
so to speak, "up a stump" and are very
much discouraged by the turn which af
fairs have taken. After a long period of
inactivity, the companies have at last
resumed operations and now, to be com
pelled to again shut down, has caused
them to view the matter with considera
ble impatience.
The boom companies will. It Is under
stood, endeavor to clear the river, and It
Is thought they will be able to do so
by the date Indicated in the order from
the War Department.
