A JUDICIAL ASPIRANT
PUNCTURED.
Let Honest Men Read.
There i no office rilled by the suffrages of
the people so sacredly important as that of
Judge of tlie Supreme Court. The candidate
for inch office should be, like Caesar's wife
bove suspicion. The republican candidate
or the supreme bench. F A Moore, is not that
kind of a man. If hia own sworn words are
true, it would be a publi misfortune to e'ecr
such a man to the supreme bench. From
brief in a case entitled "Titus H Taylor
rersus S A Miles," tried In the supreme
court of this state in the fall of 1890, we learn
these facte la 1882 Mr Moore, who then
lived in St Helens, a little village in Col
umbia county, was called in to write a will
f 3r Mrs Elizabeth Taylor, a consumptive, who
ived in the same village and who was then on
her death bed. Mr Moore wrote the will
conveying all Mrs Taylor's property to her
husband.Titus H Taylor. There were three
children in the family, three daughter with
whom Mr Moo: e wis well acquainted and two
of whom were in the house at the ' ime of the
execution of the will. He wrote the will with
out mentioning these heirs. He says he
never thought of them when writing the wilt
Mr Moore, after tbe dea'h of Mrs Taylor,
drew np a petition and had the will probated
in tbe roanty court. Some time after this.
Mooie being the attorney of two of tbe
daughters of Mrs Taylor, and being told by
them that they were in depressed circum
stances, Informed them that their mother's
wil), as (o tbe three heirs, was invalid and
that they could set it Aside it their necessities
compelled.
The tract of land in controversy ia the suit
aboej mentioned consisted of 7'3 acres in
East Portland . It had been conveyed by the
will which Moore drew for Mrs Taybr to her
husband . He, Moore, and his partner, then
entered into a cent-act with the daughters to
set tbe w.H aside and sell the 7'; acres in
East Portland for $6000, and the daughters
were to pay Stooo for this service, Moore
then begin to look around to find a buyer and
old one share to one Foster and the other
tv tkares to him! and his partner. The
cevideace as to tbe value of the land is con
flicting but the preponderance of the evidence
hows that at that time it -as worth about
$11,000 to $15,000. A- W the circumstances
of drawing the will, it is enough to let Mocre
tell them in his own language. Being under
oath as a wi'ness, he s'id: "I copied the de
scription (of the land) Into the will writing as
rapidly as I could in order that I might finish
the will before Mra Taylor died. When I
had finished writing the will, I read it over to
Mrs Taylor and handel her the pen with
which to sign her name. She could not hold
Che pen nor make any move with her hand.
Tbe door was then opened leading to the ad
joining toom. Dr Stewart came in, placed
- his hand utou her lorehe id, ftH of her pulse
nod sat down at the stand by which I was
silting, upon aay right band near the door
leading ti the adjoining room. Mr Taylor
cat at my left tund . My back being towards
Mr Taylor. I then arose, opened the door
to the adjoining room, and asked several ladies
to step in tnd witness the execaJiOo of Mrs
Taylor's wil!, and among them asked Mrs
Adams. Mrs Adams was the last lady I
asked . Tbe others all declined. Mrs Adams
came into (he room. She had ber wraps on.
Tbe door waa left open at the lime leading to
the adjoining room. Dr SUwart at "nj.Jfft
quest, wrote Mrs Taylor's name, in tbe pres
ence of Mrs Adam;, and Mr Taylor and my
self, .besides sevarol other ladies who were
looking into the 100m." Being asked by
counsel: "What did Mr Taylor say to you
about how she wanted the will drawn," Mr
Moore answered : "She gave as no direc'ion
whatever and the. only information I had as
to thi manner the -will should be draw was
thai pivenme by Mr Tayljr and he told me
to five it all to him. Mr Moore was then
asked: "When you read the will over to
Mr Taylor what didjhe say or do?" He
answered: ''After Dr Stewart had signed
her name, and assisted her in making the
anark, I asked her if that was her will.
stnaerstood her to say, yet. It was in a low,
gasf '-nfr to j. Mr Moore was tben asked :
"Why did you not sign the will as a wit
ness?" He answered: ' can not now
give amy definite reason except that I thought.
at the time the woman was not conscious of
what she was doing," When Mr Moore
first went to Taylor' house he says Taylor
asked him what he came down for and
told Taylor IhatM'S Taylor had sent for
him ai.d lhat he supposed Mrs Taylor
wanted .ihn to draw her will. He says
Taylor then said: "Draw the will and
make out the property to me." In answer
to the question : "You knew of the ex
istent of these daughters, (Mrs Taylor's
daughters wht.se names he had left out of
the will), at the dmejy drew the will
didyounol?" He replied: "Yes sir, and
for a long time prior thereto, but in draw
ing the wiil I never thought of them; my
whole desire was to complete the will be
fore Mrs Taylor died." Rep'ylng to an
other question lie said: "My partner, Mr
Cole, and 1 made a contract with the
three daughters (Mrs Taylor's daughters)
of the plaintiff whereby we agreed to try the
'question of the validity of the will and the title
othe East Portland piopextyfn the contidtra- j
lion of the payment to us, by them of a thous
and dollars, should we. win the case." Again
Mr Moore was asked: "You first sug
getted, did you not, to Mr Taylor's
daughters thai the wil! was void a to
them and mlht be broken?" He answered,
"Yes Kir." Here, then Is a lawyer who
wrote a will, which, under a plain provision
of the statute, was inval d Moore did, or
did not have knowledge of thl statute.
If he did, he must have had a dishonest
purpose In view In d awing tne will In
the defective manner he did. If he
did no', he Iscntai.iiy not a fit person to
wear the rtnlne of the highest judicial
office l the state. In either view of the
matter every houet nun in the stale will
tee th.it SI ore should be defeated , not
because he is a republican fur that would
be no reason, but because it would bring
disgrace to tbe la'.r fame of the state to
place such a man on the bench- Let every
voter pause and reflect. Here is a man
who drew a will and them accepted a fee of
$1000 lo break it. lie drew a wi I for Mis
Taylor without ever receiving a single
word of direction from her at to tbe man
ner in which it should be drawn. But hr
wears himself that he followed the di
rectioos sjiven by her husband who direct
ed that the properly should lie left ifl him.
Wh.it -an be thought of the fitness of a
nan for supreme judge who would draw a
will and then refu-etotign it asa witness for
no "definite reason, except that he thought
t lire time the woman was not conscious
of what she was doing " This I what he
siin.self swears to. What must be thought
of Mi- lawyer who wiil write a will tor a
woman, who at the time Is unconscious,
and at sit low a stage of cnnsainp'lon as to
be only a''e toga pout her words, then
canta anoiiier u.ost damaging' feature of
H8 was tho firs. i teU th8 daughter (hut I
their mother.8 wilt was invalid, and then
bought the land (which, through his own
tupidifcy or selfish design, the will failed to
convey,) for one half its value. Enough
has been said. No man who takes pride in
the purity of the state judiciary can for a
moment hesitate for a moment in defeating
this man in his aspirations to occupy a
place on the supreme bench. The attorneys
n the above suit were, on the part of the
plaintiff, the well-known firm of R a E B
Williams and A L Frazer and Killin, btarr
a Thomas for the defendants. U & h H
Williams are well-known republicans who
evidently know all about the above matter.
Our only purpose in publishing this article
is to warn the voters against the election of
an unfit man to a place on the supreme
bench.
