BOODLE SENATOR
IS FOUND GUILTY
Jury Finds That Harry Bunkers
Accepted a Bribe for.
Protection.
MARKS WERE ON MONEY
California Legislator Fell Into Trap
Laid for Him, and Was First
Expelled From Ihe State
Senate.
SACRAMENTO. Cal., April 29. (Spe
cial.) The jury this afternoon found Sen
ator Harry Bunkers, a member of the
last Legislature, guilty of accepting a
bribe. Bunkers accepted 5350 for protec
lion which he promised to grant a bulla
ing and loan association in the investiga
tion to be made by the committee of
which he was a member. He fell into a
trap which had been laid for him., the
Tnoney he received being marked.
In his argument to the jury Attorn'ey
Seymour, after repeating the oath of of
fice taken by Bunkers when he went into
the Senate, turned to the defendant and
scorched him as though with a tongue of
flame. Referring to Attorney Morehouse's
description of Bunker's beautiful wife
and his pure, noble life, Seymour asked:
"Why is she not here to give this de
iendant "her moral support? Why, be
cause she would be compelled to. hang her
head in -shame, while her pure and noble
husband told of his midnight engagements
with what he calls 'fairies. "
Taking up -the contention of the defense
that the witnesses for the prosecution
were accomplices, Seymour exploded it
by reading the legal definition, which de
clares an accomplice must have a "com
mon Interest" with the. chief offender in
the commission of a crime. The defense
had sought to prove that those who had
given the money, although Intending to
trap Bunkers, were parties to the crime.
The conviction of Bunkers is the first
in the boodle cases. Senators French
Wright and Emmons are yet to be tried
The evidence in these cases is much the
same as in that of Bunkers, and convlc
tlon is looked for. The money was passed
through Joseph Jordan, a newspaper man,
who was the star witness for the prose
cution. Bunkers is a San Francisco man
and a part of the Ruef machine.
CONVICTS RIOT IN THEIR CELLS
Incorrlglbles Tear Out Plumbing
and Make Great Uproar.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 29. (Spe
cial.) The idle, half-crazed Inmates of
the incorrigible cells at San Quentin
prison have revolted and denied the
authority of Warden Tompkins. ThreeJ
prison guards, Ed wyne, Ben aierrit
and Fred Hall, have been dismissed
and eight Inmates of the. Incorrigible
cells -are jmw undergoing; .some uncer
tain and unknown punishment at$the
liands of the Warden. r
Eight of the incorrigible cells arc
jwrecks, mute but forceful testimony
of the convict rebellion. Plumbing has
been torn out, water pipes wrenched
from their fastenings He bent and
twisted upon the floors. Beds and
bedding are a soggy, jumbled mass.
The machinery upon the floor below Is
wet and rusting from the water pour
ing from the broken pipes above.
A hurricane of pent-up human wrath
whirled and twisted through those
eight cells. Curses and shouts rasped
their way through the bars and floated
to the prisoners In the yard, four
stories below. For four hours the In
furiated felons overawed the guards.
No free man dared to enter the cells.
Every guard in the prison was called
from his post in the towers, on the
walls and on the roofs. The glint of
rifle-barrel was- needed to carry ter
ror to the striped and crouching hu
mans in the yards and buildings of the
prison- The eight Incorrlglbles took
advantage of this and prolonged their
tJefiance.
Just how the trouble started no one
(seems to know. Convict Bert Short,
who escaped from the prison on the
steamer Caroline last Fall and was
-captured in Chicago, was the leader
of the revolt. At his command eight
of the 16 inmates of the "incorrigible"
cells began their fight for a change
of quarters. They demolished every
thing in sight. They had been pre
paring for the occasion for weeks and
had loosened everything possible in
their cells, and when the word was
given they set to work. For four hours
they carried on things with a high
hand.
The -prison officials then opened
Jjeace negotiations. The prisoners de
manded that they be removed. This
was done, but the administration
"saved its face" by insisting that the
rioters would have to submit to a
bread-and-water diet for several days.
lAs an offset to this, light, airy cells
were provided them In the main build
ing, facing the beautiful flower gar
Ben. VDREDGER BRINGS UP NUGGETS
Skllners Are "Watching Levee Work
In the Feather River.
MARYSVILLE, Cal., April 23.-(SpecIal.)
E-RIch specimens of free gold have -been
rought up by the new levee dredger now
operating in the Feather River at Yuba
City. Nuggets of considerable size and
Value and pieces of quartz studded with
gold have been picked up from several
bucketsful of sand and gravel deposited
by the dredger. Dredge mining men are
watching the work closely, and It Is quite
likely that claims will be filed.
There is every Indication that another
rich dredge mining field has been discov
ered and that there will be much activity
about Marysvllle. The levee dredger Is
of the clamshell design, and the shell
holds three cubic yards. At this time the
shell brings up nothing but clear black
sand.
SPLIT OF KLONDIKE CAMP
Dawson Aroused at Projected Action
by Government.
SEATTLE, April 29. A special to the
Post-Intelligencer from Dawson says that
a scheme rto split the Klondike camp
squarely In the middle and .make two
camps of It has been begun there by the
Canadian government. This is on an or
der from Ottawa. Great objections are
made to it by the entire Dawson business
community. Protests were wired today
to Ottawa.
The new division puts Dominion, Sul
phur,. Gold Run and Clear Creeks and
their many tributaries in one district.
with a mining recorder's office and new
center at io. i below lower discovery, on
dominion, known as Parts, 40 miles from
Dawson. This leaves tributary to Dawson
only Bonanza, Eldorado, Hunker, Quartz
and their tributaries. The business com
munity and bar all protest that the new
order means legal fights, transferring of
claims, and searching records by heavy
Dawson mercantile houses, which advance
credit in the entire camp.
French Canadians predominate in the
new district. If the scheme is carried out
there will probably be a new town named
Dominion.
GORDIAN KNOT FOR GOVERNOR
Two Immber Combines Nominate
Candidates for Commission.
OLYMPIA, Wash., April 29. (Spe
cial.) The Southwest Washington
Lumbermen's Association, comprising
the millowners and corporations of the
southwestern part of the state, has in
dorsed George Dysart, of Centralia, as
a member of the State Railway Com
mission. The southwest mill intercuts,
comprising Lewis, Cowlitz, Pacific Cne
halls and adjoining counties, is an or
ganization which wielded much influ
ence during the last campaign. Its in
dorsement of Dysart is of special in
terest from the fact that the Western
Washington Lumbermen's Aesociatlon
made up of the big mill corporations of
Puget Sound, some time ago Indorsed
W. L. Benham, of Seattle, a prominent
railroad man, and one of the moving
spirits in the Olympla-Tacoma Inter
urban Railway enterprise.
From down the Sound comes the
rumor that having been placed between
the horns of the dilemma of choosing
between the candidates of two lumber
associations the Governor will cut out
both by selecting G. W. Dickinson, of
Seattle. Governor Mead, it is expected,
will eoon name the other Western
Washington Commissioner, and the de
termination of the reliability of the
rumor will not have long to wait.
ALBANY BIDS FOR THE MILL
Citizens Will Put Up Money to Aid
in Rebuilding.
ALBANY, Or., April -29. (Special-.)
Last night at the Courthouse a meeting
of Albany s citizens was held to con
slder the -question of taking some steps
to secure the rebuilding of the woolen
mills "of the Banncckburn Woolen Mills
company in Albany. This is the mill
that was burned about a month ago,
entailing a loss of $75,000.
Among thoso who addressed the
meeting were: J. K. Weatherford, Fred
Dawson, P. H. Goodwin, E. W. Langdon,
F. J. Miller and Mayor W. H. Davis
All favored purchase of 'stock by Al
bany citizens, and several volunteered
to take blocks of stock ranging in
value from S2S0 to $1000. A commit
tee was appointed to take charge of
the work, ascertain how much money
Albany people will put up to assist in
rebuilding the mill, what kind of a
proposition the Bannockbum Company
will entertain, if any, and report.
It seems that Albany will be able to
subscribe enough stock in the Ban
nockbum Company to rebuild the mill
if that company will put In the ma
chinery, and put the mill In working
order.

Lauth Guglielmo Accept

ferent Expressions.
ITALIAN IS FULL OF GRIEF
Oregon Cily Murderer Apparently
Enjoys His Single-Handed Gnme
With Horseshoes and Pre
serves Cheerful Front.
SALEM, Or., April 29.(Special.) "Well,
there Is no use worrying about It," said
George Lauth, the condemned- murderer,
as he pitched horseshoes In the prison
yard this afternoon and talked about the
decision of the Supreme Court affirming
tho judgment of death passed upon him.
"It has to come some time, and it won't
help matters any to worry about it."
And Lauth enjoyed his game of pitching
horseshoes, though he played alone. It
was not a forced cheerfulness that over
spread his features, for his pleasant smile
and hearty greeting were not feigned. It
having become certain that he will meet
death upon the gallows within a few
weeks, he has resolutely put the subject
out of his mind by occupying himself "with
whatever he finds Interesting.
In bis cell Lauth spends his time reading
newspapers and books from the prison
library. He is a man of 25 years, has a
high-school education, and can enjoy the
rending or good literature. Each day he
has an hour or two in the open air. and
this time he spends in securing physical
exerciee by ,the means described. Mention
of death nd the gallows disturbs him
not in the least. Only once did his cheer
fulness desert him, and that was when a
question was nskwl regarding his parents.
A cloud over pi cad his features, and there
-was a tone of deep sorrow in his voice as
he reDlIed:
"That's all that hurts. I can't bear to
think of the suffering my mother must
endure."
A sob choked further expression, and
the subject was quickly changed.
Gugliolmo's Days Full ot Anguish.
A different man is Frank Guglielmo,
who has but five days yet to spend on
earth. Those five days will be filled with
all the anguish which can come from a
horror of death by hanging. To all ap
pearances, he thinks of nothing except
the fate that awaits him, and cares to
think of nothing else. Mention of kin or
friends, or the girl who met death at his
hands disturbs him not, but reference to
his impending execution deepens the
glbom upon his face and brings tears to
his eyes.
-Guglielmo, tec. was out In the prison
yard this afternoon, but he was hand
cuffed to his guard, as a precaution
against nn attempt"at suicide, which the
prison officials anticipate. He understands
the English language and can read, but
finds no enjoyment or satisfaction in it.
He writes many letters to friends in Port
land, and these deal principally with his
trouble.
The murderer protests against his pun
ishment as unjust, for he says he killed
his sweetheart while under the influence
of liquor, and his offense was not "pre
meditated murder." He answers questions
in muraDiea words, using monosyllables
when possible. To him there is, appar
ently, no bright side to anything.
Italian to Hang Xext Friday.
Gugllelmo's last Sunday will be spent in
his cell, where he will probably be visited
by Father Murphy, ot the Catholic Church
of this city. He has not attended any of
the religious exercises conducted on Sun
day afternoons In the prison chapel.
The execution of Guglielmo has been
set-for 12:30 o'clock P. M, next" Friday, at

HOOD RIVER GETS THE 3IHiL

Amount of $20,000.
HOOD IHVER. Or.. April 29. (Spe
cial.) In five days business men and

factory.
They propose to incorporate for $50,000
and have asked the citizens of Hood
River to take $20,000 In stock and to fur
nish a site. Power will be supplied by
the Wilson Water Power plant.
Before completing final arrangements
for moving the mill here, tho Commercial
Club this afternoon arranged to examine
the plant at Eugene. Actual building
work will not begin before Juno 1. The

MTU. M OF OREGON
BIRTH OF CIVIIi GOVERX3IENT
AT CHA3IPOEG MAY 2, 1813.
Anniversary of Eventful Day In
State's Annals Will Be Cele
brated at Historic Place.
May 2. 1S13. was an eventful day in the
annals of Oregon a day long to be re
membered each recurring anniversary of
which should be appropriately celebrated
by the people of today In order that they
might realize somewhat of the conditions
existing in this country at the time the
first American civil government on the
Pacific Coast was born.
It was not until a little more than three
years after this date, 1S43, that the treaty
between Great Britain and the United
States giving title of the "Oregon Coun
try" to the latter power was signed: and
even .then multitudes ot Americans,
among them some of the ablest .statesmen
of the" time, thought that the acquisition
of this country was a serious detriment
to the nation. The manifestation of the
American spirit by the organization of a
government to hold this country under
the forms of law, as understood by the
participants in the meeting held 62 years
ago. doubtless had more Influence upon
Congress in settling the "Oregon ques
tion" In favor of the United States than
has been generally realized.
The three-score years since the eventful
May day of 1S43 have wrought wonderful
changes in the world's history: and more
mighty events have been recorded In that
time than ever before Ip an equal period
within the knowledge of the human race,
From the feeble beginning at Champoeg
the American power west of the Rocky
Mountains has evolved. One member of
the party of 102 on May 2. 1843. Hon. F.
X. Matthleu, still survives, and through
an tnese years has borne an honorable
part In the development of his adopted
state: and notwithstanding "he Is In his
SSth year, he takes as lively an Interest
in the affairs of today as he ever did In
the events of the past. Portland and vi
cinity would do well to encourage this
celebration at Champoeg, because it was
in the 3p!rit of that meeting that she was
born two years later. A boat will leave
the foot of Taylor street at 6:15 A. M.
and, returning, will leave Champoeg at
