E DEFENSE IS PLEA
KLAMATH MURDER JURORS ARE
CLOSELY EXAMINED.
Mr. and Mrs. nenr Hobba Now on
. Trial for Alleged Slaying of
E. C. Way Last November.
KLAMATH FALLS. Or- Feb. $. (Spe
cial.) The right of a man to defend
his home Is expected to be the defense
Henry Hobbs will offer to the Jury In
Judge Kuykendall's court In this city, in
which he was placed on trial this morn
ing for the alleged murder of Edwin
C. Way, last November.
Horace W. Manning, attorney for the1
defendant, in examining prospective
Jurors, asked In each case If the pros
pective Juror believed in the right of a
man to defend his own home. He also
asked if the Juror believed in the rule
of self defense. By this it Is Indicat
ed that the defense will attempt to
show that Hobbs' victim had sought a
place in Hobbs' home.
It Is expected that considerable trou
ble will be experienced in obtaining a
jury because of the nature of the case,
and because Way was very well known.
Patrick. H. Gibbons,, cook at the Algoma
Lumber Company's logging camp, and
Harry Messner, timekeeper for the
camp, are expected to be Important
witnesses In the case.
H,obbs and his wife, who are charged
Jointly with murder, appeared In court
today with their two small children,
Judge Thomas Drake, who Is assisting
District Attorney W. M. Duncan in the
prosecution of the case, took occasion
to ask one of the prospective Jurymen
if the fact that the defendants "were
parading their two children before the
jury" would Influence him in making
up his verdict in the case.
Judge Kuykendall later severely rep
rimanded the attorneys, and explained
that the children were probably In court
because there was no other place for
them.

NEGOTIATIONS UNDER WAY
Secretary ot Agriculture In Corre
spondence With Salem Regard
ing Routes to Be Improved.
Other States Aided, Too.
OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Feb. 3. Practically $1,000,000
will be spent during the coming season
in building roads In Oregon, under the
terms of 'the Federal good roads law,
if the ' State Legislature will put up
dollar for dollar to match the allot
ments that have been made from the
Federal appropriation. Four distinct
allotments have been made for road
building in Oregon, the total amount
allotted being $491,966. Before this
Federal money becomes available the
state must enter into a satisfactory
agreement with the Secretary of Agri
culture, to maintain tho roads after
they are finished.
The good roads" law makes two
classes of appropriations, one for gen
eral road work and one for roads in
forest reserves. ' The initial allot
ments were made last Summer, but as
the working season was nearly over
when the money became available, no
effort was made to spend any of the
first allotment. The second allotments
were recently announced, and give to
Oregon, for use this season, $255,905
lor roads in forest reserves, and $236,
061 for roads outside of reserves.
' Negotiations .Under Way.
The Secretary of Agriculture has
been negotiating with the state au
thorities as to the particular roads to
be built under the co-operative plan.
but it probably will be several weeks
before these negotiations are com
pleted.
The Federal allotments to Oregon,
aggregating $491,966. must be dupli
cated by the state. If the state fails
to appropriate an amount sufficient to
cover all Federal allotments, then only
such allotments as are matched by the
state will be available for use this
coming season.
Negotiations are also under way with
the othfer states for which allotments
also have been made. There is now
available for use in Washington a total
of $399,335, of - which $183,633 Is for
roads in forest reserves and $215,652
for roads elsewhere in the state.
Idaho to Put Up 2 to $1.
The total allotment to Idaho is $398,
130, of which $216,740 is for roads in
reserves and $181,390 for roads outside.
The report has come to Washington
that Idaho will put up $2 for every $1
contributed by the Federal Govern
ment. If this Is ' done, the total ex
penditure in Idaho this year will ap
proximate $1,200,000. On the dollar-for-dollar
basis, both Washington and
Idaho will have, if agreements are
satisfactorily concluded. Joint funds of
about $800,000 each this year.
The annual allotment for roads lh
forest reserves will continue until 1925.
but the general road fund. will cease
after three more years, although it in
creases in size each year.
