DEFENSE ARGUES 6 HOURS Jcfrrys Tells Jury IVteetives Were Prompted by Reward In Secur ing Brother' Statement. , Argument Close Today. CORVALLI3. Or- April 30. A dra matic color wal given tbe trial of the Humphry brothers this afternoon when Charles Humphry, the younger of the two, shouted: "That's a lie; they told a lie." as Judge W. S. Mc Fadden. In beginning the closing argu ment for the state, railed attention of the Jury to the confessions made by Charles Humphrys before District At torney Tongue at Hlllcboro. Humphrys leaned forward in his chair, his hand reached rapidly to his hip pocket and his face was convulsed as he exclaimed loudly against the argument of the at torney. He was quickly quieted by the deputy sheriff at his side. The spectators, who filled the court room to overflowing, were ail the more startled because defendants' attorney. John Jeffreys, had but a few minutes before closed his address to the Jury, in which ha pictured the defendants as little more than imbeciles, who could only understand expressions couched In the most ordinary words, who had no initiative and could not carry on a con versation beyond answering yes or no to questions the questioner might in dicate by the tone of his voice. A num ber of witnesses had testified to this effect In a measure and had declared that Charles wus even more deficient mentally than George. "Doakt Disappears." Xmy Clark. "Now. genllempn of the Jury, you can understand," said Judge McFadden Im pressively, aa he resumed his address. State's Attorney Clark concluded his opening address to the Jury at 10:30 this morning. He declared that the confessions made by the defendants bore their own evidence of absolute truth, and when the details described in those confessions are fitted to the facts surrounding the crime as testi fied to by other and independent wit nesses, the last pnvplble hint of a doubt as to the guilt of the defendants dis appeared. The state, he said, had proved lis rase beyond the shadow of a doubt, while the defense had offered no evi dence even tending to disprove the tes timony of any of the state's witnesses. Upon conclusion of Clark's talk. Jef freys began an argument for the de fense that continued for six hours, in terrupted by adjournments for lunch and brief recesses for rest. He paid a tribute to the fair manner In which the trial had been conducted by the state's attorneys, but bitterly condemned the means used by the detectives and Washington County officials to secure the confessions made by the two broth ers, whom he described aa children In Intellect, easily Influenced and ready to adopt and repeat the storlea impressed upon them by the officers, however larking tn truth or plausibility. Reward Was CiaU Dee I area Jeffreys. He declared that the confessions had been forced from the defendants by methods thst were torturous and In human, considering the mental weak ness of the men. and that the Jury could not accept the statements made or alleged to be made by the defend ants aa real confessions or as having really been made by them. They were the statements, he said, of the officers and detectives themselves, to which they hsd forced the defendants assent. Other than the alleged confessions, the attorney Insisted there is no evidence before the Jury even suggesting that the Humphrys are guilty of the crime charged. Even were the confessions true and had been the free and volun tary statements of the defendants, the acts and reasons for them therein re cited would prove that the killing of Mrs. Griffith was not deliberate or planned, but was unintentional and that therefore the defendants could not be convicted of murder In the first de gree, because the Indictment does not charge that the murder was done In the commission of robbery, rspe or ar son. Not Justice nor truth nor punish ment of the guilty was the motive of the detectives n competing to fasten the crime upon these weaklings, urged the attorney, but the securing of the Urge reward offered by Benton County. They selected the Humphrys as the vic tims, not because any evidence pointed to them as the guilty ones, but because their mental deficiencies gave promise of their easily yielding to pressure and making any statements the detectives desired. Argwaseata Close TaxlaT. restrict Attorney Bryson. who con ducted tha state's case until the tes timony was concluded, did not address the Jury, nor did Mr. Parktson. asso ciate counsel for the defense. Judge McFadden. In the closing speech, said that if the detectives in the case were at fault tn working for a reward, the county court of Benton County was equally at fault In offer ing a reward. He raid lhat the Prose cuting Attorney and Sheriff of Wash ington County, to whom the confession of Charles Humphrys was made, were am-orn officers of the law. aa are tha members of the Jury now trying tha rase, and could have no other motive than to ascertain the truth. Court adjourned for the day shortly after Judge McFadden began his argu ment, which will be concluded tomor- rThe two brother defendants did not testify in their own behalf preceding the rpenlng of arguments. SEASIDE WILL PAY CASH Summer Resort Tlwn Plans to Re store Its Credit. SEASIDE. Or.. April JS. (Special.) The City of Seaside re-etabl!shed Its credit, which has been In onestlon sln.e the recent decision of the Su preme. Court that the Joint Incorpora tion of the cities of Portland and f Johns was Illegal, at a special meat- Ing of the City Council last night. City Treasurer Oodfrey was ordered to caah all warrants Issued by the City of Seaside subsequent to January II. whe-n the. Council of the newly-Incorporated city flrat took office. He was ordered to withhold payment of all warrants outstanding issued by the old town of Slde. regarding the legality of which there Is no question. They will bear Interest at the rate of per cent. The Town, of 8SeiIo and the City of West Seaside voted in favor of a Joint Incorporation, under the title of the City of rteaslde. November. 111. The now Council took office in January, but shortly . thereafter the. , Portland-St. Johns decision was rendered, and as banks and bond companies declared Seaside, was In the. same position as the absorbed City of St. Johns. It be came impossible to caah warrants is sued by the. new body. The City Mar shall. City Attorney and other officials have been unable, to cash thlr salary warrants, even local stores declining to accept them, while outside concerns have refused credit to the city. As the City Treasurer now has funds to the credit of the city In excess of warrants Issued, he was ordered to pay all issued by the new Council. It was pointed out that, with taxes coming In. Seaside would be In good financial shape, until Its exact status Is deter mined. An opinion is now being prepared by W. D. Kenton, of Portland, regarding the position of the new city. The de cision is expected In a few days, when action will at once be taken. City At torney Norblad declared the cases of Seaside and St. Johns are not synony mous, by reason of the fact that both the City Council of Seaside, snd that of tVeet Seaside voted to put the matter of a Joint charter up to the people, wheroaa In Portland action was not taken by St. Johns. Should Mr. Fenton sustain that opinion it Is probable a friendly suit will be Instituted to determine for all time, the legality of West Seaside. Should the reverse- be declared, an Ini tiative measure will be prepared, prior to the November election, giving the cltlee power to have a Joint charter, this bell n a the process outlined by the mendment to the state constitution passed at the last election. The City Council oroered that funds of the Water Boards of both the old cities be. turned over to the newly ci rated Water Commission, which, as soon as Its legality is determined, will sell bonds for a new water works. In the meantime It will be able to use the funds In hand, and water collections, to defray the cost of repairs to tha city water plant and for salaries. Under the decision of the City Coun cil, should the actions of the City of Seaside be held illegal, those who have given credit to the city will have re ceived cash, while those who have paid taxes will be unable to recover them.

Commission government for Boise Is confronted with more stumbling blocks than even Its most sanguine supporters had forecast more than six months ago when a movement was Inaugurated to substitute the Black law for the spe cial charter, because with the second election to nominate the commission ers, set for May 4, the enemies of the commission plan again have succeeded in raising the constitutionality of the Black law before the Supreme Court. The friends of commission govern ment and the enemies of the Des Moines plan have been locked In heat ed conflict ever since the petitions were circulated asking the right to vote up on the commission question. The ene mies of the Black law fought to save the special charter Boise has always operated under and the commlssionlsts were Just as active to disDose of the charter and place Boise under the gen eral laws of the state and commission government. Mayor Harry K. Fritch man showed his opposition to the new government from the first and refused to Issue a proclamation setting a date for an election at which the voters could decide on whether or not they wanted commission government. A writ of mandate Issued out of the Su preme Court commanded the Mayor to Issue the proclamation. The Supreme Court at the same time upheld the commission or Black law in every respect. The election result ed in the abolishment of the charter and the adoption of tho commission. Injnactloa) la Refiued. Determined to block commission gov ernment and still claiming the Black law to be unconstitutional in face of the Supreme Court decision, the law was again attacked through an appli cation made In the District Court by the antt-eommlsslonists for an injunc tion to enjoin the city from holding the second election to elect commissioners. This application was refused by Jurize Carl A. Davis and an appeal was promptly taken to the Supreme Court by the ant is. The present appeal places the Mayor in the attitude of de fending the Black law. whereas in the former case before the Supreme Court he attacked it. The charge Is openly made, and not denied, that the second attack against the commission law has the backing and hearty aupport of the present city administration, Including Mayor Frltchman. who' has publicly stated that he would leave nothing undone to save the charter of this city, and this irrespective of the fact the Mayor and the City Attorney are by the present case before the Supreme Court sup posed to defend the commission law. The situation Is a most peculiar one and bitterness waa never deeper In a municipal turmoil in this city. Captain Davis, minority leader of the House of Representatives at the last session of the Legislature, when the commission law was passed and who voted for it. haa aince been active in an attempt to have It declared unconstitutional. Apeal Voder Advisement. The commission supporters asked Mayor Frltchman to permit them to assist the City Attorney through coun sel and were refused. They later secured the permission of the Jurists sitting on the bench to ap pear as friends of the court and pre sent the commlssionlsts' side of the con troversy, representing that Inasmuch ss the Supreme Court had once held the law constitutional, there was no Issue Involved in the Swain rase. Gen eral Frank Martin, Harry S. Kessler and Gustave Kroeger appeared for the commission advocates as the friends of the court and defended the Black law. The Supreme Court has the appeal un der advisement. The hope of the anti-commlsslonlsts Is to prevent the May election. They are openly boasting Jhat if the Su preme Court rules against them they will appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Woodard, Clarke & Co. POLITICIANS ARE HI! Oregon City Loser by 8-Hour Day Talk Is Asserted. LIVE WIRES INVESTIGATE Commercial Club Members Told by Paper Mill Officers That Im provements Are Made Other Towns Instead. in Alderman to Talk In Chicago. BALEM. Or.. April 30. (Special.) Superintendent Alderman has been no tified that he will be asked to speak on "What Oregon Is Doing to Solve the Rural Life and Edueatlon Problem." at the meeting of the National Educatlon al Association to be held in Chicago In July. OREGON CITY. Or., April 30. (Spe cial.) Sensational statements were made today at the weekly luncheon of the Live Wires of the Oregon City Commercial Club to the effect that the agitation of two years ago and this year on the part of office seekers in favor of an eight-hour day in the pa per mills has lost to Oregon ClUf five new paper machines, resulting in a consequent loss of $500,000 In tha an nual pay roll. The matter came op on a report from the committee that was appointed re cently to confer with the officials of the Crown-Columbia Paper Company, with the object of securing f"r this city that corporation's new 184-inch paper machine, tho largest In the world. A. J. Lewthwaite, resident man liter of the company at Portland, told W. A. Huntley, chairman of the Live Wires committee, that he had recom mended the machine be placed at Ore gon City, as the pulp for the company Is made here and the location of the machine in this place would obviate the necessity of transporting thousands of tons of pulp to Camas. Wash., where the Crown-Columbia Paper Company has another mill. Mr. Lewthwalte said, however, that the directors of his com pany were uneasy because of the per petual agitation on the part of the Oregon City politicians for an eight hour law In the mills, and for that reason they had concluded to Install the new machine at Camas. Increase la Parr oil Larae. Mr. Lewthwalte said that the con struction of the mill to house the new machine would involve an expenditure of about $100,000. and the machine would mean an addition to Oregon City's payroll of from $.5000 to $H000 a month. In presenting his report today Mr. Huntley said that the same situation confronts the other paper companies here, and that development was prac tically brought to a standstill because of the agitation. Ex-State Senator Hedges declared emphatically that the agitation was all bunconib and made solely for the pur pose of getting votes, and was not In the Interest of the laboring men. It was said that the two new ma chines that were Installed recently at Powell River, B. C. by the same in terests that control the Willamette Pulp Paper Company, would have been Installed in Oregon City had it not been for the unrest, and that two new machines now on the way from the East to Powell River would also have been Installed here. T. W. Sullivan said at the meeting that the paper companies in Oregon ob Ject to an eight-hour law for the single reason thit by its operation they would be placed In disadvantageous competi tion with mills In Washington and other Pacific Coast states where two shifts are maintained, as in Oregon at tne present time. Men Said to Be Satisfied. It is contended also that a majority or the men themselves, who are fa miliar with conditions in Eastern mills wiiere the eight-hour shift prevails are satlsrled with the present system, as their wages are Increased materially by a bonus system that is in effect in the various departments of the Wil lamette Pulp & Paper Company, as In some of the mills In the East where thero Is an eight-hour law, the men are paid from $1.40 to $1.60 a day. and sim ilar labor conditions would be bound to prevail here under an eight-hour law. The Live Wires is a body of about 50 men, all members of the Commercial Club, who are putting In a great deal of time for the benefit of the com munity, and they believe Oregon City has suffered in no little degree because of the unceasing agitation directed at the management ot the several paper companies.
