Guilty of murder in tbe drat degree

Hat mil ay evening, in the case ol
Walter Montgomery Johnson, ac-
eued of the murder of Elmer Per
due, in a lonely cabin near Timber,
this county, during the nigbt ol
July 3, this year.
The iurv received itscharae from
Judge McBride at fiuiU, retiring
then for supper, and at C:30 began
deliberating on the fate of the pris
oner and at 7:2J the jury an
nounced that an agreement had
been reached, and court was re-
cjnyened Kich of the 12 jurymen
was (Hilled and eacb acquicju in
the finding of the verdict. The
iurv was hack in the courl room I

iuH'.ructioni.
The prisoner received tbe verdict

Hhortly after one o'ch ek Monday

where to find these articles.
The Sheriff twore that he brought into
the county teat the iron whkh is yet be
lieved to be the instrument with which
I'erdue was slain, a piece of wagon tire
al)it jo inches in length, made into a
UllMur htMril aunoort at the BurKholrer
cabin, and that it was covered with hair
and congealed hlood.
Dr. Iltnet, of Forest Grove, and Dr. V.
A. Hailey, of Hillsboro, the physicians
who rssuiined the skull for the state,
staled that in their opinion no bullet
could have caused the severe fracture at
the hast of the skull. There ia a portion
of the skull gone and the physicians
think the break must nave rx-en very ex
tensive, more than jioasibly could have
been made with a bullctt.
Hut one witnese was sworo Hat'

examined tbe cabin for bullet boles,
but found none. Tbe argument o!
counsel for the defense waa tbe most
eloquont beard in the courtroom
since the time that August Wach
line was tried for the murder of
John I). Ledrick, a Cornelius firmer.

locate on timber lamia, jounaon Deiug
ti.. w.inr swore that the rinff exhibit
ed In court was worn by Perdue; that the
watch was Perdue'a, and that during the
trip Johnson awl feruue were me dcsi
of friends. Cosper left the party after
Fischer did. on the morning of July i,
the others of the party leaving in the af.
lernoon.
Parks, who corroooraiea tosper on
many thiiiRS, loaned Johnson a revolver
before leaving. This wituess is the one
who made J hnson return biin some
money after the slayer naa returned 10
Portland subsequent to killing Perdue.

ward the Duigholcer cabin where the
1 :n:.... t..u mac Two hova. Helmut
Davis and William McPherson, testified
they saw Perdue traveling toward Buxton
alone the next day. This was in the
Sheriff Hancock corroborated the John'
... Qlnn and swore that the defend'
ant identified the watch and purse which
be'onged to Perdue and which the de-
V. O. Hare, a son of Hon. W. D.
Hare, associated wilh his partner, tieorge
R. Bagley, made his maiden plea in a
murder case, and he covered the case
from every standpoint of advantage for
Heareued that lohnson
was not a quit k thinker and that after he
hail killril Perdue, as a result of a ouar-
rel. he was in a chaotic state of mind and
that it did not occur to him to surrender
to the authorities; that he filially con
cluded to cover the evidence of the kill
ing and being in hard circumstances,
took the money be knew retnue nan on
his person, secreted ihe body and left for
rottlnnil.
n-ot wi R. rtanlev made a forcible and
eloquent plea, and dwelt upon the fact
that Johnson nail located reruue on ine
iimt-r Und afterward thrown up by Per
due, and said that Perdue doubtless was
angry at not finding what he had gone
after. He attribu ed Johnson's actions
after the killing to his confusion after
taking human life, if even only in self-
defense, and contended tnai nis oniy
thought was to get away from the scene
of the tragedy.
District Attorney f li. longuemane
the final plea for the slate, and asked
conviction on the grounds that Johnson's
motive was robbery, and that his con
tention of a quarrel waa only a conceived
defense. His closing argument was a
masterpiece 01 logic.
Johnson's mother was a constant at
tendant at the trial, coming from her
home at Uuts. His wife and child were
in the city during the court s proceed
; Thf ifr however, steadtasttv re
fused to see the prisoner or to laia wun
him. This attitude she has maintained
ever since Johnson's arrest Since that
time she baa been living with her par
ents, who are very worthy settlers in the
Glenwood district, ine cniui, wnicn is
about 2 veais old, was taken iu to see the
father last Friday evening.
