IIENEY TALKS
Tells of Charges Against Fulton in
Address.
A recent Portland dispatch says:
Before an audlenco that filled the
First Congregational church to Its
doors, Francis J. Ileney, the govern
ment's special prosecutor n tho land
fraud cases, picked up tho guantlet
thrown by Charles W. Fulton, senior
United States senator from Oregon,
and gave to tho public for the first
time his reason for accusing Seuat
or Fulton of unfitness for the high
office bo now holds.
Mr. Heney spoke on "Graft ver
sus Good Citizenship." and attacked
enemies of good government general
ly, selecting Senator Fulton, as he
told his audience, merely as a typo
Df tho public official who is recreant
to duty and false to his trust. He
devoted most of tho time to expos
lug alleged short comings of tho Or
egon senator, and,- metaphorically
speaking, flayed him allvo after strip
ping him of his toga.
Ovor 1400 persons were prcsont
and many were turned away.
His charges may bo summarized in
brief as follows:
That Charles W. Fulton was Sen
ator Mitchell's sack holder and dis
tributor of funds during tho legisla
ture of 1897.
That Fulton used his influence as
state senator as attorney for tho
Astoria & Columbia River railroad
and corporations, ns United States
senator to provont enforcement of
laws that ho was sworn to uphold
during tho "hold up" legislature of
1897, and to protect his friends from
indictment and prosecution.
That In 1899 ho did bis utmost
to defeat justlco and prevent tho en
forcement of tho law by aiding and
abetting tho land frauds ns attorney
for tho Hammond lumbor interests.
Tliat his connection with shndy
land deals continued after that thno,
particularly In 1902.
That ho agreed with Sonator Mit
chell to shield Brownoll from prose
cution by tho reappointment of Hall
ns United States district attorney.
That ho represents tho interests
of the rnilroads and big corporations
at Washington and not tboso of tho
people.
FULTON DOESN'T WANT TO TALK
Evades Answer to Henry's CliarRo
That Ho llnndli'd Sack for Mitchell.
A Washington dispatch to tho Or
egon Journal snys: When Sonator
Fulton was Informed by reporter of
tho charges thnt woro niado at Port
land by Francis J. Honoy in a pub
lic address in which ho charged
nmong other things that "Fulton
bandied Mitchell's sack in 1S97," ho
said:
"I don't know what Henoy can
moan by saying such things, but I
do know that It is damuablo in him
to allogo that I over handled auy
monoy corruptly, for Mltcholl or nny
ono elijs, or that I handled any monoy
for Mltcholl.
"Further than this I must refuse
to say ftsythluB until I am advised
more fully as to tns opesitie nature
Of navy's RllsiaVloas."
TO PUBLIC GAZE
His
Portland Prisoner Makes
Revelation That Places Him
in Harry Orchard's Class.
(By Associated Press.)
PORTLAND, Feb. 4. Jacob Hilt,
arrested some days ago on a minor
charge, and whose case was dis
missed has confessed to the police
that while ho was in jail his cell
mate Joseph Anderson confessed to
him that ho had killed Harry Logan
who was shot to death on the Fourth
street bridge several months ago,
that he had robbed four niilkmen
that ho had participated in the mur
der of a motorman on a Rose City
Park electric car and committed
other crimes. He told Hilt about his
criminal career preliminary to ask
ing Hilt to kill Roy Embry and Peter
Maher two witnesses against him in
tho Logan murder case. In raturn
for Hilt killing Embry and Maher,
Anderson, Hilt says, promised to kill
detectives Tlchenor and Jones who
had worked up tho case against Hilt
and that ho would kill any 12 men
Hilt might name. Tho police have
corroborated much of Hilt's story
and have found Anderson's revolver
and knife, whore Hilt told them An
derson had thrown them. Anderson

Presjflent Approves Sermon Delivered
Iu Reno Catholic Church -President
Writes Letter to Priest.
RENO, Fob. 4. Presidential ap
proval of tho sermon delivered In tho
Catholic church here Sunday, Janu
ary 19, has been received by tho
author of tho opinions, Rev. Father)
Tubman. A letter from Theodore
Roosevelt tells of his indorsement
of the priest's remarks, and the as
sertions that "celibacy is false to God,
false to country and false to self"
are essentially upheld.
The president applauded the state
ment tha trace suicide, affinities and
"other outgrowths of modern mar
riages and divorces" deserve more
than condemnation from the clergy.
The priest's utterances created a
sensation at the time because he said
he desired no unmarried men or wo
men to remain in his parish.
PRIZE WINNERS IN -
GUESSING CONTEST
M. D. Poyntz Gets First, Walter But
ler Second, and Mrs. G. N.
Bolt Third.
It has been proven that people
read advertisements In the Times. A
great many of them read tho con
test ads but not one guessed all the
names correctly. M. D. Poyntz and
Walter Butler were tho headliners,
each guessing twenty-two and the pe
culiar part of their guess was that
each missed the same ads. L. W.
Plans fooled them with his little
poem George Goodrum is not tho
only poet who handles apparel for
men but George's poetic reputation
fooled tho good guessers. Mrs. G. N.
Bolt proved herself an expert by fig
uring out twenty one correctly
coming within one of tho other two.
The first two being tied for first
placo they met at the Times office
and flipped coins for choice of first
and second prizes. Walter Butler
proved himself a better guesser of
ads than coins for ho guessed heads
and It came tail so the first prize
was given to M. D. Poyntz. Tho dis
tribution of prizes was as follows:
M. D. Poyntz first prize, $5.00 in
gold.
Walter Butler second prize,
$3.00.
Mrs. G
N. Bolt third prize,
$1.00.
A. B. Campbell
"Sacchi" coffee
prize, $1.00.
The first two wero paid In cash In
tho Times office this morning and
$1.00 in silver ie at tho Times office
waiting for Mrs. G. N. Bolt which
sho can havo at any time. A. B.
Campbell may get his cash at tho
"Sacchi" store.
Tho contest was a success in every
wny and was satisfactorily conducted
by Mrs. Agnew.
"BILL"
When ho gets his Sunday shave,
Hair all slicked an' parted down
On his forrld In a wave.
Bill's tho sweetest thing In town.
Tako him with tho weok day crop,
Faco all grimy, hair a mop.
Ho looks mighty tough, and still
It's Bill.
See him in his Sunday rags,
Cuffs and collnrs shiny white,
I'm not mnkln' any brags;
Ho's a darlln' though, all right.
Tako him in his week day duds,
Overalls that need tho suds
Flannol shirt; ho's fierce but still
It's Bill.
Sundays Bill looks mighty fine,
Weekdays, though, ho's not so gay.
That's all right, too. Him for mino.
Ho's my foller every day,
Git below tho dirt an' grime,
There's a man there, every tim.
Mar not look so sweet, but still
lis Bill.

Myrtle Point Enterprise Says it
js a Matter of Justice to the
Public.-
Thd stand t'dkBri by Tho Times
lil tho Coos Bay 6ni & Electric Co.
proposition continues to attract tho
acromion ui me uuimuu nuwuyuyoru.
The Myrtlo Point Enterprise In Its
last issue has tho following concern
ing tho subject:
"Tho Coos Bay Times Is giving the
lighting company of Marshfleld a few
solar plexus blows. Tho company
took out Its advertising because It
was mildly criticised, giving tho im
pression that, because it had adver
tising space, It had rights with tho
editorial columns that the editor
was bound to respect. No firm or
corporation should expect to control
a newspaper's sentiment ltt tho face
of flagrant public nbuses, through
patronage. A newspaper may be
lenient with an advertiser, and cer
tainly will -not alhlse a patron need
lessly, but when ,it comes to n mat
ter of justice between the advertiser
and tho public no coflsclentious news
paper man. will permit an advertising
proposition to Stand In the way."

Drain Newspaper Says Work

The Drain Nonparlel, which is at
the center of the base of operations
publishes the following in its last is
sue as the latest news in reference
to tho Drain extension:
"Work on tho new Coos Bay rail
road is to be resumed next April with
an army of from 5,000 to 10,000 men-
Then watch Drain suddenly develop
Into the metropolis of Southern Ore
gon." The Times wishes that tho editor
of the Nonparlel may prove a good
prophet. Coos Bay Is not envious of
any rivals and hopes to see all South
ern Oregon prosper and take on new
lifo when the new road arrives. Coos
Bay will take chances with tho oth
