court room and her clients, B. A.
Conley and T. D. Proctor, confessed
burglars, were taken back to the
county jail to prepare for stays at
San Quentln penitentiary of from
one to five years each.
Conley and Proctor pleaded guilty
to having- entered a store here and
stealing furs valued at $16,000. Mrs.
Adams took much interest in the
case and her husband supplied a
bond for Conleys release before the
trial. . After pleading guilty they
asked for probation. This was re
fused by the court, who contended
the burglary was premeditated. Im

Then Mrs. Adams fainted.
Ernest Bamberger, William Wattis
and J. R. Clark Prominent
in Race for Nomination.
BY DARRELL J. GKEENWELU
(Copyright, 1922, by The Oresonian.)
SALT LAKE CITY, U.. July 8.
(Special.) Utah republicans will
meet in convention here next Friday
to nominate a candidate for United
States senator against William H.
King, democrat, incumbent.
There are three outstanding can
didates:
Ernest Bamberger, William H.
Wattis and J. Reuben Clark.
The indications are tlfat the race
will be between Mr,. Bamberger and
Mr. Wattis. neither of, whom is
member of the Mormon church, a
situation which should be interest
ing to outsiders observing politics
in Utah, where a majority of the
voters are members of the doml.
cant church.
Bamberger Is Prominent.
Mr. Bamberger is a member of a
Jewish, family prominently identi
ties, with the Industrial advfsnce-
ment of the state. He is a mining
engineer and is actively interested
in this Important city. He is a
nephew of Simon Bamberger, ex
governor, who, however, is a demo-
viae frueai u zsmjiuirig in nis party
is indicated by the fact that he is
national committeeman from Utah.
He is a resident of Salt Lake City.
Mr. Wattis is a resident of Og
den, the second largest city in the
Mate. He is general manager of
the Utah-Idaho Sugar company, head
of the Utah Construction com
pany and an officer and director of
several Utah businesses. Mr. Wat
tis' start In life was humble. His
friends call him a real self-made
man. He has been teamster, miner
and railway contractor, later in
vesting heavily in sugar stocks.
Wattis Twice Defeated. I
Six years ago he was the repub-!
lican candidate for congress in the
first Utah congressional district,
but went down to defeat in the
democratic landslide. Two years
ago he sought to be nominated for I
governor, but failed. Agitation
about sugar prices was declared to
have hurt his cause, in view of his
connection with sugar companies.
The third candidate, Mr. Clark, is
connected with the state department
at Washington. A former Utah
school teacher, he left Utah 17
years ago, studied law and achieved
success in his profession. He is
considered a splendid campaigner
and has rendered good services to
his party in this capacity In other
states. While Mr. Clark will com
mand some strength at the conven
tion, party leaders aver that his
long absence from Utah has injured
his chances of obtaining the nom
ination. - ' ' j
Non-Mormon Conceded.
Visitors from other states fre
quently ask how it is that In a state
in which a majority of the voters
are Mormons, two non-Mormons cart
be the outstanding candidates. For
years in Utah there has been, a feel
ing among voters that if one United
States senator was a member of the
dominant church, the other should
be a non-Mormon or Gentile, as he
is called in Utah.
At present both senators from
Utah Reed Smoot and William H.
King1 are members of the dominant
church, but it happened that at the
time Mr. King received the demo
cratic nomination for senator, a. non-
Mormon, Simon Bamberger, was
nominated for governor and iater
elected. Thus this understanding of
dividing the high office was not
violated, it is pointed out.
Bourbon Situation Complex.
The democratic situation was com
plicated late in June when friends
of .Senator King let it be known
that he was a receptive candidate
for the nomination to succeed him
self. No date for the democratic
nominating convention has been set,
but talk of candidates is heard.
W. R. Wallace, a Salt Lake busi
ness man and expert on irrigation
problems, is mentioned as a candi
date for the nomination, as is also
W. W. Armstrong, a Salt Lake
banker.

Literary Digest Sends Out Million
' Ballots to Voters All
, Over Country.
A nation-wide poll on the ques
tions of prohibition and the federal
bonus, two of the biff Droblems now
before the public, is being taken by7
the Literary Digest with a view to
obtaining some pre-election infor
mation on the public sentiment on
these two questions. -
Secret ballots have been mailed
to 10,000,000 voters, representing
all classes of citizens in all sections
of the country. The return of these
ballots is expected to give a com
prehensive idea of the feeling of
the voters on these problems.
Three different phases of prohibi
tion are to be voted on the ques
tion of enforcement, modification or
repeal. Voters also have beep asked
to designate whether or not they
favor a national federal bonus for
ex-soldiers and sailors.
The results of the poll will be
published in the Literary Digest.
BY WILLIAM BIRD.
(Copyright, 1922. bv The Oresonian.)
PARIS, July s. Special cable.)
Premier Poincare's desire for self
exculpation has opened for him a
pandora's box of troubles. America
knows very little about the cam
paign conducted for a long time in
the French socialist and radical pa
pers against Pontcare and the war.
This campaign has sought to prove,
by producing documents derived
principally from Russian sources.
that Polncare foresaw and actively
prepared for the war in collabora
tion with the czars government and
even pledged France to back Russia
whenever the latter was ready.
Poincare, during the last year, has
become increasingly irritated be
cause of the character of this cam
paign. Just before assuming the
premiership he delivered a series of
lectures on the origin of the war.
wherein he summed up the evidence
of Germany's guilt. But the cam
paign has continued and certain pa
pers never mention the name of the
premier without attaching the war
thereto.
Cemetery Laugh Shown.
Recently a communist dally
printed a picture showing Poincare
and American Ambassador Herrlck
walking through the cemetery at
Verdun apparently laughing. This
picture has been" printed on hun
dreds "of thousands of postcards.
Dignity would seem to demand that
such a matter be ignored, but Poin
care, when taunted with it in the
chamber demanded an open debate
on the whole question. All parties,
even Eis most bitter enemies, with
the exception of the communists,
supported him and he received an
overwhelming vote of confidence,
which apparently -clears him and
greatly strengthened his position.
To those on the inside, however, it
is obvious- that his demand for a
vote on such a question is as much a
sign of weakness as it was when
Lloyd George demanded a vote on
the vague terms made public re
garding the Genoa conference plans.
In reality. Poincare. while saving
himself, has opened a most trouble
some question, which will not down.
Both Lloyd-George and (Jlemenceau
have declared that Germany's guilt
for commencing the war la the basis
for the whole Versailles treaty and
unless that is admitted the entire
structure falls to the ground. There
fore, opening the subject brings the
whole peace settlement Into doubt
and while the French chamber may
readily vote overwhelmingly for
Germany's guilt, a question arises in
many minds.
Versailles Verdict Discounted.
Versailles was a gathering of vic
tors, not judges, and their verdict
cannot be held to establish judicial
truths. , What is certain to arise in
all countries which do snot accept
the treaty of Versailles, and among
men who look at the facts imper
sonallyia a demand for an impartial
judicial investigation into this ques
tion.
Scientific truth cannot be decided
by a majority or even an unanimous
vote of a non-partisan body. The
result is a decided weakening of the
Versailles treaty and many of the
men who voted for Poincare are sick I
at heart that this question ever was
raised and wish that Poincare had
consulted hiB supporters before pre
cipitating the matter. Some angrily
declare that he precipitated the af
fair on the eve of the adjournment
of the French chamber, in order to
achieve a personal victory.
A few express cynical satisfaction
that Vlviani jumped In and grabbed
a large share of easy glory in elo
quent speech against Poincare's de
sires. In fact, far a moment the de
bate looked like a free-for-all, with
every ambitious politician attempt
ing to make what political capital
he could by supporting the side that
was sure to get an overwhelming
majority.
But if this debate provokes a gen
eral demand for an impartial judi
cial investigation into the origin of
the war and results in a verdict that
the world can accept as fair and un
biased, then it will not have been
in vain, while If the verdict is In
favor of the thesis adopted at Ver
sailles, the result can only be to
strengthen the treaty's authority.

Supreme Court of State Declines i
to Reverse Verdict on Errors
Assigned by Defense.
. OLTMPIA, Wash.. July 8. (Spe
cial.) Conviction of James E Ma
honey for the murder of his aged
wife, Kate Mooers Mahoney, and the
death sentence imposed by Judge
Ronald, in superior court of King
county, October 1, 1921, were af
firmed fcy the supreme 'court today.
Date for Mahoney's execution will
be set by Judge Ronald as soon as
the supreme court's remlttur goes
down to his court.
"It is our conclusion," the supreme
court opinion says, "that the defend
ant had a fair trial and considering
its length and the number of wit
nesses the debatable questions are
few. The evidence, while largely
circumstantial, was scr clear and
overwhelming as to leave no ques
tion of the Justness of the verdict
rendered."
Most of the 23 assignments of er
ror on which Mahoney's attorneys
based their plea for reversal of the
lower court are treated very briefly
by the supreme court, gome being
dismissed with bare reference. Spe
cific consideration, however, is given
to the contention that the trial court
erred in Instructing the jury that it
could find only first-degree murder
or acquittal, leaving out the lesser
degrees.
"We have come to the conclusion
that in order to find the defendant
guilty at all the jury must accept
evidence which in Itself shows pre
meditation, which is the element
necessary to raise the offense from
second to first degree murder," the
opinion says.
Judge Ronald's remark during the
questioning of Jurors that "Lips may
He, but circumstances never lied in
the worlds an assignment of error
on which the defense strongly relied
for reversal, "was not in accord with
the impartiality which should be
maintained by the trial judge but
the trial judge was considerably
tried by the delay experienced in
getting the jury. If it had been made
after the jury was impaneled and
he had made it with reference to
evidence then before the jury it
would probably constitute reversible
error. We consider that at the time
it was made it was in the nature of
a statement upon an abstract propo
sition and while the remark was
highly improper and could well have
been left unsaid, they did not con
stitute reversible error."
MAHONEY NOT CONCERNED
"What's the . Difference?" Says
Slayer, Learning Decision.
SEATTLE, Wash., July 8. (Spe
cial.) Sheriff Starwich this morning
informed James E. Mahoney that the
state supreme court had sustained
his conviction and sentence to . be
hanged for the murder of his wife,
Kate M. Mahoney, whose mutilated
body was found in a trunk in Lake
Union many weeks after the com
mission of the crime.
"What's the difference?" said Ma
honey. "I might as well have been
hanged a year ago as now. A per
son has to die some time. But I'm
not in Walla Walla yet,' and if my
lawyers stick by me I may not be
for some time." , ,
Lewis B. Schwellenbach, one of
Mahoney's lawyers, said that the su
preme court would be -asked for a
rehearing. The defense has 30 days
in which to make this requesC and
it probably will be deferred to the
last moment of that period.
Mr. Schwellenbach also spoke of
the possibility of appealing to the
United States supreme court. The
state supreme court's remittitur will
not be sent down until the 30 days
have elapsed, and until it comes no
new date for the execution will be
set.

outlined is approximately 42 miles
long, but it present is little more

Wash Cleaning
"MO method has been devised for the
cleaning of Oriental rugs equal to
the original method of wash cleaning
by hand.
This method meets the natural re
quirements of an all-wool or silk rug.
It removes soot, dust and grit without
the use of chemicals or mechanical
means.
By the use of proper soap, pure water
and . fresh air, the rich colors of the
vegetable dyes are given new life, and
the silk-like luster of the wool is im
proved. Ordinary methods of cleaning, be
cause of lack of knowledge, often prove
injurious to Oriental rugs. If the nat
ural oil of the wool nap is removed the
rug becomes lifeless. The effect is
noticeable only in the gradual dimming
of the natural luster.
BOW TO CARE FOR YOUR RUGS :
Oriental rags should be wash-cleaned
at least every two $ears. Meanwhile
they may be kept in good order by gen
tly whipping them on the back and
, sweeping the nap with a corn,broom.
. We have the best equipped plant of
its kind in the west for wash-cleaning
Oriental rugs. The work is done by
men who learned their trade in the
Orient. Charges are proportioned to
the grade and size of rug and the
amount of attention needed. Estimates
will gladly be furnished. A circular of
explanation is yours for the asking.
