"Love and justice are two things
that will find out their way, ulti
mately," declared acting Municipal
Julira Deich vesterday in sentencing
George Parker to 90 days in jail for
an aasault committed in July. 1917, on
Mrs. Lulu Stevens, widow of the late
Lieutenant Orville A. Stevens, who
was killed in France.
Since the assault was committed.
Parker had joined the army, had seen
service during the war, had been mus
tered out and had returned to Port
land, and married in the belief that
everything relating to the incident
was forgotten.
He was rudely awakened however
Wednesday when served with a war
rant by Patrolman Kelly, charging
htm with assault and battery commit
ted three years ago.
Mrs. Stevens was conducting a
rooming house on the east side in
llil 7, in her efforts to support her
self following the departure of her
husband on the crusade which was to
mean his death. Parker roomed at
the place. He is said to have bor
rowed money from Mrs. Stevens which,
together with the room rent, amounted
to a total of $77. When Mrs. Stevens
asked him for the money Parker as
saulted her. beating her la the face,
according to testimony introduced
before Judge Deich.
Parker Joins Army,
At that time Parker was arrested,
but Mrs. Stevens was unwilling to
cress the charges against him, and
the case was finally continued for
sentence, with the agreement that he
should pay Mrs. Stevens the money at
the rate of $10 a month. Parker sent
one check for $5. Judge Deich was
told, and after that he joined the
army, sending Mrs. Stevens a letter in
which he informed her she had a "fat
chance now of collecting her money.
When it was learned Wednesday
that Parker was again in town puty
City Attorney Stadter issued a bench
warrant for his arrest.
After Parker remained In Jail for
the greater part of yesterday, his
release was secured by his employer,
J. A. Lyons, contractor, 222 Union
avenue, who promised to see th
the debt was paid.
Arrangements were made with
Deputy City Attorney Stadter that
the moifty should be paid at the rate
of $3 a week, and Judge Deich sus
Bended the 90 day sentence. In case
Parker fails to make his payments
however, he will be compelled to
serve the 90 days, it was announced.
Twelve Alcoholic Cae Called.
"That's enough to give anyone the
alcoholic blues." said acting Munic
ipal Judge Deich. following the close
of yesterday morning's session of the
municipal court. The acting judge
had passed on 12 cases of "drunk." and
two of violating the prohibition law, a
"grist" of business which would have
done credit to the days when forr
lund was 'wide open.
George Worth, sailor, who was ar
rested with four alleged drunken
companions at 24 North Second street I
Wednesday night, was clearly a vic
tim of circumstances. Worth was not
drunk, he swore he wasn't. He said
that he had just happened along and
saw his old pal, Charles Swim. He
was giving demonstrations of joy
when the police raided the place And
took him In as a "drunk."
Judge Deich decided to give Worth
another chance, so he was discharged.
Swim and three companions, Gust Hill,
Charles Nelson and Sam McCullock, all
arrested at the same time, were fined
$10 each.
Alvon French, from the Umatilla
reservation, who had ben celebrat
ing his visit to Portland by drinking
four bottles of beef.- iron and wine,
was. fined $10 and sent to jail for six
days on a charge of drunkenness.
French In Locked l"p.
French was in Portland to secure
treatment for his eyes, he told Judge
Deich. The judge decided that, if he
was permitted to continue his course,
he would have no eyes left in a little
while, so had him locked up.
Alice Hamilton, proprietress of a
rooming house at 128 Fourteenth
street, was told b; the judge that the
coroner would be called for her, if
dhe did not mend her ways. She was
arrested on a charge of violating the
prohibition law as the result of a
fight which had been participated in
by about a half dozen of her logger
friends.
The liquor, which is said to have
furnished the courage for the fight.
was believed to have been secured
from her. Sam La Blanche, a mem
ber of the party, who had some liquor,
was also charged with violating the
prohibition law. He and Mrs. Ham
llton were fined $10 each.
"I don't know but that I am making
a mistake in not sending you to jail.
the judge told her, "for 1 fear you will
kill yourself if you continue your
rtresent course with bad liquor."
The woman promised to sell her
rooming house and go back to Ifer
old iob of cooking In a logging camp.
'1 am sick of the rooming house, any-
jv," she declared.
Nick Shot, who was picked up
asleep on the sidewalk and who faced
a charge of drunk, was told by Judge
Deich that it was cheaper to go to i
hotel. "Our rates here are high," de
dared the judge. "We will have to
charge you $15 for your night's lodg
ing."
When Shof demurred at the high
charge he was told that, if he had
money to purchase moonshine, he had
money to pay a fine.
B. J. Sittser. who was found asleep
in his automobile at East Twenty-
sixth and Division streets, and was
arrested by Motorcycle Patrolmen
Stiles and Sin the for drunk, was
commended by Judge Deich for not
trying to drive his machine when in
such a, condition. He was fined $10.
Pryor L.et lown tasy.
Sittser admitted that he had drunk
some cider and grape juice but de
clared -he was only sick. He said
when he felt himself becoming sick
he had driven up alongside the street
and was waiting for a friend to take
him home.
It was pride and his disinclination
to beg which tiaused William Pryor,
a negro, to bunk in a lumber pile at
Thirteenth and Raleigh streets with
the result that he was arrested for
vagrancy by Patrolman Jackson.
"I've slept in worse places than
that to keep from begging when I was
knocking around. declared Judge
Deich. "The defendant will be discharged."
Pryor had been working In a Port
land mill and accidentally sawed the
end of one of his thumbs off. Prac
tlcally all his savings were taken by

WASHINGTON BOOTLEGGERS
HAVE PROTECTIVE SOCIETY.
Large Caches Are Split TJp and
Each Man Holds Share; When
Arrested Rest of Stock Saved.
SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 5. (Spe
cial.) A well organized mutual pro
tective organization exists among
bootleggers In the state of Washing
ton, declared Donald A. McDonald,
state prohibition director.
"Wo have discovered, said Mc
Donald, -"that when a bootlegger Is
convicted in this district, upon his
release he moves to another section
of the state to resume operations. If
he were caught again here, previous
conviction would entail a heavier
penalty. As it Is, officials in an
other part of the state have no way
of knowing a prisoner's record in
regard to booze law violations.
"We have found, too, that a large
cache of liquor is often split up and
held as a sort of pool shipment by
a number of bootleggers. Thus we
catch a man. and find only a small
amount of liquors on hand, while in
reality he may be joint owner of ah
Immense cache."
At a conference of prosecuting at
torneys ,at Aberdeen last week, a
movement was started to introduce a
bill at the next legislature, with a
view to form a central office where
complete records of all men con
victed by either state or federal
authorities will be available.
Director McDonald expects to leave
Thursday for Spokane, preliminary
to making an auto tour of Washing
ton for the purpose of visiting all
county seats and encouraging co
operation of local authorities with
the federal squad.
