EX EDfTOR PAYS FINE
OF RFTY DOLLARS
J. N. Hoffman Pleaded (iuilty to
Violation of Corrupt Practice Act
ATTORNEY-EDITOR DIDniNWrTTIMiLY
Sy. However. Had fee Tbonrbt of it.
Would Have Siged
J. N. Hoffman, ex-editor of the
Forest Grove Press, pleaded
guilty before Judge Campbell,
F riday, ta violation of the cor
rupt practices act in the recent
election, and wa3 assessed a fine
of fifty dollars, which he im
mediately paid.
The indictment grew out of a
circular which wa3 issued out of
the Press office a few days be
fore the election, attacking the
action of the county board in the
matter of a contract awarded to
one N. Bangs. There were in
sinuations in the paper-but this
would have made no difference,
for the law requires that any pa
per touching upon anyone's can
didacy, shall be served upon the
parties likely to be effected, and
this was not done.
Hoffman says he never once
thought of looking up the elec
tion laws, and had it occurred to
him that signatures were neces
sary he would have signed it
himself.
It is not at all likely that Mr.
Hoffman will stand the burden of
the fine, although the assessment
would not hurt him financially.
More than likely some one else
will stand the payment There
are other indictments connected
with the same case.

LARGEST IN OREGON
The Portland, Eugene & Eastern
is one of the largest electrical
railroad propositions in the
United States, and must certain
ly be so classed in the Northwest
It is building 340 miles of electri
cal road in the Willamette Val
ley, the scheme providing that
alt the old West Side lines of the
Southern Pacific will pass to this
company and steam trains give
way to electricity. Where it now
requires hours to consumate a
journey through the valley, the
distance will be covered in min
utes through the use of the fast
and numerous steel trains pro
posed for the system. All this
is to be accomplished by January,
1913.
Its completion means that the
Willamette Valley will experience
a growth similar to that which
has followed electrical railroad
development at Los Angeles,
Columbus, Detroit and other
Eastern districts. Business seems
to follow fast and adequate in
terurban service because of the
conveniences it brings to the
farm, the village or the city,
tfor these reasons the P. E. & E.
be&msthe most important ele
mervt Oe development of the
state, and" it means a great deal
for Hillsboro. -.
