Guardsmen Assert He Made
Pledge to Do Away with
Governor's Staff.
(Special Ma patch to The Journal.)
Seattle, Wash., Dec. t. Governor-elect
Albert K Mead is not In touch with the
movement of national' guardsmen
throughout the state to do away with
the governor's staff. Prior to election,
when the varloua companies of the na
tional guard. In order to carry out their,
plan of reform for the betterment of
the service, sought a promise from the
cnndldste for the highest office in the
state. Mead gave his word that if elected
he would do away with the military
aide display which the guardsmen con
sider cumbersome.
This was about the only pledge the
state militia asked and were satisfied
that their mission was about to be ful
filled when the returns showed Mead's
election.
However, while the positions on the
staff pay no salaries they are as much
sought after as the best Jobs In the
state and since election the governor-
elect has been convinced that the move
ment is in the wrong direction.
The general belief among guardsmen
Is that long before the legislature meeta
their wlah will be disposed or In con
formity with the present plans of the
governor-elect and there will be no re
organisation of the Washington National
guard.

POLICE MAKE ARREST
Rees Trial Is EndedMail Car
rier Has Narrow Escape
Teacher's Institute Closed.
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
Vancouver Wash., Dec. 3. Because he
was in too great haate to gather In re
turna from a burglary committed by
him, a man who gives several names Is
under arrest In this city charged with
looting the house of James Crowley
laat night.
Shortly after midnight Mrs. Crowley
heard a man ransacking the house, and
Instead of screaming, adopted better tac
tics and aent her boy quietly out as a
messenger for help. The boy went to
Crowley's place of business and the lat
ter, with due equipment, hastened to his
home but found the burglar gone. Evi
dences were plentiful, however, that
Mrs. Crowley's visitor had been no
myth.
Crowley notified the police and In less
than an hour a man was arrested while
trying to sell a watch and chain stolen
from the Crowley residence. Hts
answers as to where he gained posses
sion of the Jewelry were evasive and he
waa locked up for the night.

Bssss Trial Concluded.
Yesterday's session ended the trial of
Major H. L. Reese before the court mar
tial. What the government will decide
Is hard to foretell. Assistant Cashier
Alvord of the First National bank gave
practically the same testimony as did
M. Hamilton. Herron of Salem, who it
was hoped by the defense, would testify
that Major Reese had paid him 31.100
in June, failed to appear, which waa a
great blow for the defenae. The only
Important witness of the day waa Lute
Pease, who stated that at the time that
the major borrowed 3400 from the pro
prietor of the Louvre cafe, he (Reese),
had a considerable amount of money In
a sack which he carried with him -which
contained government money to the ex
tent of several hundred dollars, the ex
act amount not being known.
The witness called the court s attep-
tlon to the fact that Charles Baren
stecher had not included this In hts tes
timony before the court. Pease stated
that he had called Barenstecher's atten
tion to thla and that he had acknowl
edged that such was the case. The court
decided to take the testimony of witness
without sending for Barenstecher to cor
roborate Pease's statement on this point.
Thls- went to prove that Major Rees
had sufficient government money on hand
at the time he borrowed the 3900 to
balance his accounts with the govern
ment. With this the testimony waa
closed. ,
It will probably be some time before 4
decision will be given out for publication
which Is awaited with great interest.

the political history of Oregon City haa
there been a livelier Interest or more un

best cltisens. all prominent In business
and social circles, are out In the race
for the mayoralty, and each of them has
a strong personal following, as well as
very considerable claims upon the of
fice. The contest can hardly be aaid to
have a political complexion as all three
aspirants claim to be good Republicans.
The Interest of the voters, however,
seems to be more of a personal nature
than political, although one of the can
didates has the Indorsement of the Re
publican organisation and la running
upon 'a regular Republican ticket.
For a great many yeara the adminis
tration of the city's affairs haa been
kept out of politics altogether, and the

regardless of partisan politics, or for
that matter any particular Issue in
volved. The only two Issues before t lie
people are the completion of the South
End road, and a time limit to b placed
upon the Southern Pacific franchise, and
ajl three of the candidates profess to
favor these propositions, so that any
favoritism to be shown by voters de
pends whny upon the personality of
the candidates.
Campbell is a lawyer. Dr. Summers Is
a well-known physician and surgeon
Albright In his long residence here has
many times been a member of the "city
council.
There is considerable speculation on
the results, and while It is a good
natured contest, every one seems to feel
that no matter which one of the three
shall be elected, Oregon City will be
sure to have a good mayor.
The other candidates that are to be
placed on the ballot will bet F. J..
Meyer and J. A. Tufts, for city treas
urer: for council men. E. F. Story and D.
