EXHIBITS 5HQVN IN
TRIAL OF ROBERTS
Mask, Gun Wads, Cherry Pits
and Strings Are Evidence
in Murder Case.
DEFENSE CLAIMS iNSANITY
Attorneys for Prisoner Make Open
ing Statement With Promise to
Snow Client Mentally In
balanced Since Babyhood.
The prosecution .devoted its efforts
la the Roberts murder trial yesterday
In trying to prove the whereabouts of
the defendant on the day preceding and
the one succeeding the night of the at'
tempted automobile holdup on the
whltehouse Road, which resulted In the
deaths of Donald M. Stewart and
George Hastings.
Witnesses were produced who swore
that Roberta left the farm of TV. B.
Woolfolk, where ha had been employed
for a few days, on the afternoon of
March 29, the murder occurred that
night, and that he called at the homes
" ' . '
Kee, the next day, March SO. and ex-
plained that he had slept all night In
j.
lmo. ,h. arucle. produced in . vf-
dene, were a black mask a niece of
plUow ticking and gun wads found near
xne scene or me snooting; me Durnea
remnant:i of a vest, from which the
state contends the mask was cut, and
which waa found in the deserted house
on the Jonathan Tlce ranch by Sheriff
Steven, and Deputy Sheriff Leonard,
ana a piece oi learner on me oaca or.
a pair of suspenders, which was picked
. . . . . - .
up in tne same nouse. vine state nasi
promised to show that this piece of
leather fits exactly on the back of the
Suspenders Worn by Roberts at the
time of his arrest and by this means
moa or wiuiceaei jrei iu oura i
prove his presence in the deserted
house.
Mask Strings Introduced.
Attention of the jury was called to
the similarity of the jute strings on
the mask to those with which Roberts
bundle was tied. The defendant's gun
Is in evidence and also his belt, con
talning shells, whioh the prosecution
Insists are similar to those used by
the murderer. The gun waddings are
relied upon as additional proof of this
contention. The run !.self Is ma-
terlal, for the reason that it Is a
pump gun, buco a one as uie eviaenoe l
shows must have been in the hands of I
the holdnp man. The state has brought!
out that dried cherry pits were scat
tered about the floors of the deserted
Tlce house, the purpose of this testi
mony being to account for the pits
wren wnico tne mux was weighted.
The witnesses called yesterday were
W. B. Woolfolk. Mrs. Woolfolk, Police
Sergeant Stahl, Patrolman Stanton,
William McK.ee, Mrs. McKee, C. C. Rue
nits and finer isoan, who was em
ployed at the Woolfolk place while
Roberts was there. Ruenltz testified
that he saw Roberts on March 10 and
that the defendant told him that he
had wintered at his mother's place, and
had lust come out to work for the rest
of the year. The prosecution consid
ers this evidence of Roberts' gu'lt. In
view of the fact that he arrived at his
mother's home, between 15 and 20 miles
southeast of Oregon City, on the night
following that of the murder.
Womaa Denies Pear.
Attorney Whitfield, who is conduct
ing the cross-examination of witnesses
for the defense, asked Mrs. Woolfolk if
her fear of Roberts had not led to his
discharge by her husband. The wit'
ness denied that such was the fact.
Prom all the witnesses who came In
close contact with the defendant the
defense is seeking to draw admissions
that Roberts was "queer," but so far
there has been little success.
Several have stated on the stand that I
KoDerts asked many times for explicit I
directions on how to get to the roads I
leading south along the river from
Portland. There also was evidence
relative to a patent which Roberts de-
dared he was going to get money to
develop.
Acting on Judge Morrow's order of
Friday, the defense yesterday made
an opening statement in which It
said that it will be shown that Roberts
has been Insane from babyhood. A
lull outline of the evidence to be pro
duced tending to support this conten
tion, was given by Attorney McAllister.
JHE
KtlliN Ut" HIUH PRICES
Population Increases til Per .Cent;
Production of Cereala 1 Per Cent.
New Tork Journal of Commerce.
To those lntereested In cost-of-living
problem we advise perusal of the census
statement published elsewhere, giving
the production of cereals In the United
States. It sheds an important light on
thia question. In the decade covered by
the last census the population of the
united states increased 21 per cent.
while the production of cereals in
creased only 1.7 per cent and the value
of cereals rose 80 per cent.
The further such Investigation re
garding high prices goes the more con-
vtnclng becomes the proof that they are
chiefly the result of demand exceeding
supply. The gold theory does not ade
quately account for present abnormal
conditions. Not long ago statistics on
the cattle supply in this country were
published showing that there were 2.
400.000 less cattle in the country and
1.300,000 less sheep than a year ago.
This, of course, has much to do wltb
the present high prices for meat. Such
instances of relative scarcity could be
multiplied almost indefinitely. In nearly
i. ' " I
scarcity of many commodities result-
lng from universal economic conditions.
Another tendency which has aided the
development of scarcity and high prices
has been the trend toward monopoly in
r " . ... -"l-"""
Cliwn ol cuinDinsuuna, waemer ot cap-
itai or laoor. nas Deen to Keep aown
supply and to push up prices as far as I
possible. In other words, one of the
fa.nfMf, or niffn nnr,, narTiruisriv in I
a I
the United States, is the universal ef- I
ion to eliminate compeuuon. inciuaeo. t
among tne causes ror nign prices is one
other which Is becoming more generally
recognizeu, ana tnat is tne steady rise
In wages, accompanied by shorter hours
of labor. In many cases labor is giving I
less and receiving more than ever In the I
history of organised labor. This must I
affect prices materially.
A statement recently prepared by
Professor Laurence Laughlln from. data
given by the Bureau of Labor at Wash-
ington, IX C, shows that wages have al- I
most doubled since the Civil War, while I
the hours of labor have been reduced
from 13 to 8. or about 3S per cent. I
The wage index number referred to I
stood at 208 In 1911. arainst 172 in
1901. and 164 In 1891 and 148 In 1881.
In 186S it was 109.
Incidental to this problem of the cost
of living; there is a bill for an interna
tional conference upon the subject.
which has been favorably reported on
br the House committee on foreign af
fairs. If such a commission is to be ol
any practical value it should be started
'without delay. The subject is one in
which the public is vitally Interested,
and the report of such a commission, if
intelligently conducted, will be of un
questionable educational value. We
are suffering from false economic doc
trines, which such a report may help
correct The bill should pass promptly.
and the report of the commission should
not be unnecessarily delayed by making
the investigation overelaborate. Most
of the important facta concerning prices
and production of the great commercial
nations are to De natf without any
great expenditure of labor or time.

years. Mr. Beach received a total of

cast, making a grand total of 6o79, or
23 per cent, of the 28,722 legal electors

participate in the election of directors.
Women taxpayers cast 40 per cent of
the vote.

M. Claude Casimlr-Perler. son of the
former President of France and hus-
band of Mme sim,ne, the actress, has
Ju8t returned from Aa official mission
t th United States, and has a great
deal to say regarding the Panama
Canal and American ports In general
apart from the report which he sent
to the French Government.
Trouble Is ahead for America, he
says. Itraorance of tne exact results
of the opening of the canal, the rival
ry of adjacent states, the mistaken
competition between ports which in
reality serve the same territory, and
the feverish activity now being mani
fested everywhere, must result, accord
ing to this critic, in a series of heavy
financial crashes.
At the same time he admits that
France especially, now mat sne is pre-
paring her coasts for the canal trade,
can receive many lessons irom tne
United States. He regards the Ameri
can system of open ports, which veS'
sels can enter regardless of tides, and
which are kept constantly dredged to
a sufficient depth to admit the largest
vessels, as much superior to the French
Bvstem.
He especially praises American fore
sight in constructing ports to cope
with a larger traffic than that an
tlclpated at the time, and says that
America shows the greatest wisdom
In rejecting the European custom of
building ports as solid as fortresses
with stone quays, which are apparent
ly destined to last forever, but which
have to be continually rebuilt at huge
expense to handle the increasing trade.
France would do well, he says, to
adopt the plan of using light struc-
. . . 1.1.1. .a m.rilf .J ...1 1 u,
rmieh trouble when necessary.
The present time, he believes. Is
critical one for French trade in con-
sequence oi xne vasi economic cuuSs
which the canal will bring about, and
he calls on his countrymen to study
carefully the new conditions arising
and ooncentrate their efforts on the re-
organlzatlon and creation of centers of
trade with the United States.

If he chose, apply for his old situation.
So the shop remained closed for near

In the meantime, but without reason.
After six weeks the majority of the
men Indicated that they wished to re
turn to work, and we gave them the
agreed ten days' notice. Before starting
up, as many of the men expressed tne
fear of slugging, we agreed to put tne
property under the protection of the
