was found murdered yesterday on tha
Acorn ranch, a mile and a quarter south
of Sycamore Ftatlon. on tha Estarada
streetcar line.
That tha murder waa committed for
a (old watch and $S In money la tha
belief of Kherlff Maaa, of Clackamas
County, and Sheriff Stevens, of Mult
noroaU County, who hurried to tha
e.n soon after the farmer's body waa
found. An unidentified man who wta
seen at tha house Saturday night at
o'clock has disappeared. Tha missing
man had but recently been employed
by Mr. Thomaa.
The last seen of Mr. Thomas was
Saturday nlsht about o'clock when
Joe Ponneleoa. of Gresnatn. went to tha
Thomas' eah!n to par the rent on some
property owned by Thomas. The hired
man was In the cabin at the time Mr.
Thomaa produced S4. In money la an
effort to make chance for tha amount
Mr. Ponnelson offered In payment for
the rent bill. He waa unable to make
The chance and the rent was not paid.
The hired man waa In the house when
Donnelson- left.
Marks mm Be.
Apparently the old man was either
poisoned or waa frightened to death
by hla assailant, there being no marks
ar bruises on his body which mlirht
have caused death. A careful Investi
gation showed that he had a slight
bruise on Ma chin and a amatl spot of
blood oa his shirt. He was found lying
on his back on a couch with his hands
tied so that he could not move. His
shoes and socks were removed and his
fet tied tightly. Ha had worn a costly
a-old watch In hla veet pocket and thla
ta missing. The chain waa not re

were turned Inside out.
The hired man who has disappeared
was encased tea days aco and had
been attending to general work around
the place. Neighbors had not learned
Ms name and knew nothing of him ex
cept that ha was rough In appearance.
It Is believed that he waa merely a
tramp who happened to he passing
through the Oreeharo district and was
befriended by Thomas.
Old Mai Tbewght Asleep.
The body waa found by r. N. Chll
rote. who Uvea two miles below the
Acorn ranch. He was walking toward
Uenta with two frtenda and went In
to see -Old Man Tb.mas." aa he was
familiarly known. Entering tha door
ha saw the aged farmer lying on his
bark apparently asleep. Near him was
a hatchet which had never been no
ticed In the house before by the vis
itors and It la believed tha murderer
may have had this In reserve It tha
old man resisted.
Mr. Thomaa was feeble and waa In
the habit of taking In atraagera -and
befriending them.
Immediately after the dead body waa
found, Sheriffs Maas and Stevens were
called. They were Joined at the Thomaa
homo by Coroner Wilson, of Oregon
City.
I.lttle la known regarding relative
of Thomaa. It la believed he bas cou
sins at Lenta and other relatives at

eerured extensive property. Including
the Acorn ranch of acrea of culti
vated land. He married Anna Paul

but had no children. Phe died aoma
time ago.
Tha body waa not removed from tha
cabin last night, arrangementa belns
made for an Inquest at tha acena thla

Invade State.
SENTIMENT HERE DIVIDED
Party Leaders in Beaver State Yet
Waver lit Deciding Whether to
Support Wiloon or Harmon
in Coming Contest,
That overworked expression. "ThJ
eyes of the country are on Oregon."
will be particularly applicable next
Spring. Especially will it be true as
spplled to the aspirants for the Re
publican and Democratic nominations
for President. Oregon l one of five
tatea In which the electors in the.
primary election early next year will
express their preference for President
and Vice-President.
The quintet, together with the datea
of the primary election in each are:
North Dakota. March 19: Wisconsin,
April 2: Nehraeka, April 17: Oregon.
April 1. and New Jersey, May 28.
Aspirants to Vlelt Oregon.
It la for this very reason that several
of the aspiring. candidates for the head
of the ticket have either vkilted or will
visit Oregon personally or will have
public sentiment sounded out through
personal repreeentstlves. Governor Wil
son, who would head the Democratic
ticket, had thla purpose In mind when
he visited this state and other Pacific
Coast States recently. It is for the
same purpose that Lieutenant-Governor
Nichols, of Ohio, personal representa
tive of Governor Harmon. Is now visit
ing Western and Pacific Coast States.
In fact, the preliminary visit of Mr.
Nichols may ba followed late In the
Fall by a visit of Governor Harmon.
This activity ia particularly notice
able among the prospective Democratic
candidates. They are desirous of In
suring for themselves, by working
through effective organizations, which
are being formed In these five states,
tha biggest possible popular vote ex
pression from the Democratic voters In
the primary election for the effect the
result may have In determining Demo
cratic aenttment In tha states which
will select delegates to tha National
convention later.
Oregoa Deaaecraa Split.
Oregon Democrats are divided as to
a choice for President. Some are sup
porting Governor Wilson, while others
prefer Governor Harmon. Immediately
following the visit of Governor Wilson
a few months ago. the Democrats for
a time appeared to be carried quite
completely away by the New Jersey
man. But after sober reflection that
enthusiasm haa abated somewhat and
soma Democrats who two months ago
were shouting for Wilson are now In
clined to look to Harmon as the man to
load the party.
Tha more conservative Democrats at
no time have favored Wilson, whom
they regard aa the political pupil of
Bryan. They have Insleted that the
party should name for Ita candidate a
man who can count upon the support
of the rank and file of the party and
be reasonably certain of carrying some
of the large doubtful statea of the East,
which is essential to victory.
xvilseBe Attltwde Vapopular.
At the same time the more radical
Democrats are not satisfied with Wil
son. They are demanding that their
candidate muet stand for the initiative,
the referendum and the recall. Wilson
professes to stand for these measures
of popular legislation as they are .
enunciated in the .so-called "Oregon 1
system." but he has balked at the ap
plication of the recall to the judiciary.
This is where he has lest ground with
the radical Democracy in this atate.
which feela that if It Is necessary to
compromise at all they may just as
well throw their support to a conserva
tive as to get behind a half-may radi
cal. The arrival of Lieutenant - Governor
Nichols, representing Governor Harmon,
with the message from the East that
the Democrats must nominate a man
who can carry Ohio and some of the
other large atates in the East, has also
given the Democrats food for thought
Oregon Democrats want to win. and
they are desirous of assisting to pick a
winner. Although satisfied that Wilson
may be strong In some of the Insurgent
states, they have serious doubts If he
ran carry the large doubtful statea
where the Democrats must go for the
necessary electoral votes, in addition
to those of the South, to win.
Orgaalsatloaa Are Formed.
Senator Chamberlain lias announced
himself as favoring Wilson, but other
members of the party who have worked
shoulder to shoulder with the Senator
In former ronflicta are Inclined toward
Harmon. Lieutenant-Governor Nicholas
who Is forming working Harmon or
ganisation In the Western and Pacific
Coast States, was called to Seattle,
Wash., yesterday. He expecta to re
turn to this city Wednesday, when he
will hold a further conference with lo
cal Democrata for the purpose of per
fecting plans for organising Harmon
sentiment among the Democrata tn this
state.

TO MOST of the audience gathered
yesterday to witness "The House
Next Door" at the Baker Theater, the
play was a big comedy and brought an
endless chain of laughs: for others it
waa an admirable-" leee of stage struc
ture, subtle in dcalin. and thoroughly
artistic In results. 7. In its essential
points, and particularly in He leading
role, it is well acted:
Reminiscent in a large measure of
ZangwlU's "Meltlnsfrat." the story Is
only another 'Tmirg of oil upon the
troubled waters" of religious and
racial differences. Naturally the intol
erance is held by the Christian: the
primal Interest centering around the
intermarriage or the sons and daugn
tors of an English nobleman and a
Jew. who haa been knighted. Pride of
ancestry and a differing in religion on
the one aide, with Hebraic devotion
to the highest standards and ldeala on
the other, make the contrast of espe
cial force. The old and poverty-strick
en scion of nobility. Sir William Cots
wold, holds an Intense hatred for all
Jews, and In particular for his neigh'
bor. Sir Isaac Jacobson. Broken In for
tune, but certainly not In spirit, a gen-
tleman of the old school, he voices on
every occasion his choleric and bigoted
opinion of the man In the house next
door.
The presentation of Jewish suffer
ance and magnanimity Is most Impres
sive. Through It the old Englishman
Is brought to an understanding of the
real nobility of his neighbor, good feel
ing replaces turbulence, and narrow
mindedness gives way to reason.
The actlna; in "The House Next Door"
ia decidedly of "The Better Sort." The
role of Sir Cotswold. easily the dom
inant note In the entire cast, is plsyed
by William V. Mong. an actor known
to Portland by reason of hla work two
seasona ago with the Baker company.
In the main his performance of the
Irascible and belligerent old lord is
worth while. His method Is clean and
crisp and always consistent in drawing.
While he does not neglect the dramatic
effectiveness of the character, ha aub
ordlnates It as far as expediency per
mits. His makeup la a triumph; Ills
assumption of mannerisms complete
Most fortunate is Mr. Mong in beUig
aupported by a cast that pi aye with
ease and certainty. George Dayton
provides an excellent foil for the lead
ing role. In his portrayal of Sir Isaac
Jacobson. Mr. Dayton adds to a digni
fied presence a strength and verve of
acting that Is Impressive, standing out
particularly against the querulous
exploslveness and Insufferable ego of
Cotswold.
The families of the two men. their
wives and children: a theatrical pro
moter, loud and venturesome, complete
the cast. Cotswold's daughter Is
brought as an actual being before the
audience by the clever work of Grace
Hale. who. while Just a trifle heavier
than one la led to believe leading
women should be, is withal a capable
actress.
The remainder of the cast ie ade
quate. Throughout the stage appur
tenances, shewing the drawing-rooms
of the Cotswold and Jacobson homes are
In good taste. The same bill will run
all week at the Baker with the usual
matinees.
