DEFENDANT BLAMES
FATHER FOR ARREST
James Watson, Alleged White
Siaver, Addresses Jury.
LETTERS ARE PRESENTED
et-ire to Marry Eva Baker, Prose
cuting Witnoxs, Expressed by
Man on Trial.
Direct assertions that his own
father is back of the government
prosecution for the purpose of depriv
ing him of interest in some large
state were made in federal court
yesterday oy James Watson of Van
couver, Wash., defendant in a white
slavery case before a jury in Judge
Bean's court.
Watson, who undertook to address
e Jury in a closing argument in his
own behalf, gave a long, disconnected
atory of his relations with Eva Baker,
18-year-old prosecuting witness,
whom he is alleged to have trans
ported from Portland to Vancouver,
Wash., for immoral purposes. Me
professed deep love for the girl,
whom he admits having ruined, and
announced himself as willing to mar
ry her, even though he might be con
rioted. Cane Goes to Jury.
"And I want to assure you gentle
men that despite insinuations which
have been cast at this trial, that her
baby, when born, will be heir to an
estate," he said in closing. "I hats
to be compelled to say it, but my own
father, who was present in this court
room this morning, is back of all this.
I only wish I might give you the
reasons why they are trying to rail
road me to prison."
The case was given to the Jury
shortly before 5 '.o'clock yesterday
afternoon. Judge Bean advised the
jury they might return a sealed ver
dict which will be opened and read
in open court at 10 o'clock this morn
ing. Interest in the case yesterday cen
tered about letters which had been
written to S. P. Baker, father of the
prosecuting witness, by Watson, in
which he threatened any or all wit
nesses who might appear in court to
testily against him. In these letters
Wathon attempted to blacken the
character of the girl who lived as his
wife for several months, and likewise
threatened to bring disgrace and
shame to other members of the Baker
family.
After the government had conclud
ed its case, the defense rested with
out offering testimony of any kind.
Watson refused to take the stand in
his own defense, this being in line
with his promise to the girl in a se
cret letter sent to her Tuesday, in
which he pledged himself not to say
one word against her before the jury.
Letter Are Read.
Mrs. Lillian Davis, at whose home
Watson and Miss Baker lived as man
and wife for some time, teslfled that
the defendant seemed to show more
affection for Mrs. R. L. Taylor, his
alleged accomplice, than he did for
the girl, whom he passed as his wife.
It is Mrs. Taylor whom the govern
ment charges induced Miss Baker to
insert the want ad which resulted in
her going to Watson's home to work
as his housekeeper, while testimony
brought out by the prosecution shows
that Mrs. Taylor went to live at the
Watson home and there posed as the
mother of the girl.
In his closing argument to the jury.
United States Attorney Goldstein de
manded that Watson be convicted as
a means of helping other girls who
might fall into the clutches of such
men as he pictured the defendant to
be. liis reading of two letters, in one
of which he threatens members of the
Baker family and attempts to blacken
the girl's character, and in the other
professes his deep love and affection
for the girl, closed kls argument.
These letters were read for the pur
pose of showing the length to which
Watson would go in an effort to save
himself from prison, the prosecutor
.warned the Jurors.

The meeting in Chicago will
determine the time and place for
holding the national nominating con
vention. Mr. Williams is in favor of
bringing the republican convention
to the Pacific coast and haa pledged
himself to assist San Francisco in
landing the meeting. The California
committeeman has obtained support
from a number of the western com

it is said there is a possibility that
San Francisco may be successful.
Among the republican committee
men is a desire to force the demo

As a rule, the democrats trail after
the republicans, waiting to see whom
the republicans nominate. The repub

so late in June that the democrats,
who meet in January at Washington,

date. Dr. J. W. Morrow, - the demo

"Let Me Tell You How
to Break Up That Cold"
"Golnp home from the oftlce one
night after Christmas, I sat too close
to a door on a crowded local train. 1
was reading my paper and didn't
feel a bit cold not even chilly. But
when I got ofT at my station I began
to sneeie. By the time I reached
home my eyes were red, my bead waa
stepped up and I felt achy all over.
It looked as if I were In for a peach ol
a cold. And there had been so many
influenza and pneumonia cases that 1
was worried.
"Well. aftr dinner my wife called
her sister a nurse on the phone.
She told her about me and aha replied:
" The time to get after a cold Is '
Just before It rets thoroughly started.
And I'll tell you i the safest, surest,
easiest way to break; up any cold that
is Just etartlne or prevent It from
Betting started at all. Get a box of
Weeks' Break-Up-A-Co!d Tablets and
follow the directions absolutely.
George will feel like a new man in the
morning-!'
"Wi took her advice, and. say next
mornlnsr there wasn't a vestige ot that
cold left! We're never without a box
of these little wonder workers In the
house, any more. - They're chocolate
coated, pleasant to take, and contain
no calomel merely a mild vegetable
laxative. If they don't help you when
taken according to directions, you get
your money back. And the way they
knoek a cold is nothing short of a
miracle! They're only a quarter a box
and every good drui? store sells them.
But be sure to get Weeks'."
