Know her well, Mrs,-Moore did 'not at

'Widow. To them the story of her life
was known: they were acquainted with
the facts of her marriage at 14, and
how some years later she Became, a vio-
tlm of the pace that kills. This is the
story of her meeting with Hamilton, as
"they tell it; - . :
It was during the summer of HOT
that Or tie Hamilton, the younrr guards
man, out on a tour of the tenderloin4 la
'Seattle with a party of friends, met
Hasel Moor., The pretty face and allur
ing brown eyes served to fascinate the
' militiaman.' Ftom that night, when the

she was golna- to marry him, that he

people in Portland that marriage with
him would secure for her the position

And upon the subject of her brown
eyes there are numbers of gay young
fellows to testify. It was the subtle
mystery of those flashing orbs that

"It was some kind of occult Influence

STOJtY OF THE
CAREER THAT WAS
AllTElJ UN THE liul)
-No more popular of-
been a member of the
Seattle, May
fleer has ever
National Guard of Washington than
Ortls Hamilton. This has been demon
strated In a dozen different ways. And
until the rumors of his infatuation for
the Aioore woman cot abroad be was
held in the highest respect by all IiU
frienddi, acauaintances and every one
who came In contact with him.
Ortls Hamilton was born In Whit
man county In 1173. His father was
W. J. Hamilton, a native of the Wil
lamette valley of Oregon, who "had
moved to Whitman, county In 1S7I.
Hamilton, senior, was in turn the son
of one of the California argonauts who
had crossed the plains In '49. and early
seeing the manifold opportunities for a
new and permanent home in the beauti
ful west, had turned north Into Oregon
to establish his home. In 1862 the
original Hamilton was killed and hl
murderer was the first '-white, man
legally executed in the territory of Ore
gon. .The father saw that Ortls had the
best education, the best advantages ie
everything and as a boy he was allowed
to have much of his own way. In fact,
he was a favorite son. and friends of
the family say that Ortts rot the lion's
share of-everything. In 1888 Ortls whs
sent to the Bishop floott academy In
Portland, wlyere he had his first mili
tary training. . ,
Was Bright PapCL
in young caaet toon to the drill and
the' discipline of the school and jfrorn
being a high private in the rear rank he
.steadily and rapidly advanced until at
the end of his four years he was the
captain of the senior company with the
record or having won the banner In the
last year and a gold medal as the best
individual eaaet in- the drill content.
Athletics also drew the attention of tho
youth, and his former schoolmates spoke
In high terms, of Ortls Hamilton's
anility as a oasenail and football player,

ilton lived In Colfax, being emploved in
the real estate business. He showed
ability and soon attracted the attention
of J. J. Broweie of Spokane, one of the
wealthiest men in tne inland empire and
one of the largest owners of real estato
and -farms In eastern Washington and
northern Idaho. In about seven years
Tie was transferred to the Spokane offlco
of J. J. Browno, and within a short time
became manager. Both Ms father's high

two or three year term of office, be
come more valuable to the firm and his
resignation was , Anally accepted, with
his old position open to htm on. re
turn.
Hamilton's first Interest in. the army
was shown when in 1898 he was among
the first to organize a company for the
volunteers. - Since his days at .the
Bishop Scott academy tte had been lnv
.terested- in the soldier life, but beyond
the drill and marching Invoked In comi
pany work he had had tiO experience.
At one time It was believed by his
friends that-he would endeavor to enter
West Point, and "he was strongly xirged
to take the : examinations. -Several of
his schoolmates at .- Portland did take
the "exams,".-but Hamilton backed out
because of hla father's objections. Be
sides the times were ' hard just then,
and It was felt that Ortls ought to go
into business, years later he expressed
ft regret that he had not.gohe to West
point, - '
leader of Youni Hen.
In-'-Ms' home town ' of j, Colfax, ' Ortis
Hamilton was a leader among the young
men, and no activity, social, business or
Otnerwiee. was complete jwunoui nun,
A former? resident of Colfax says;
"Ortls r Hamilton was the Idol of the
young fnen "of Colfax, and no ono
thought of starting anything without
Ortls.''
Amplw evidence of Ortls Hamilton's
popularity and standing- was shown In
Anrll. of 1898. when tho Spanish-Ameri
can War; broke out.' Colfax was. then a
small town, but when the young men
decided ' that they would, organize a
company of soldiers to try for a place
in tne state I quota 01 one regimem,
only one name was ud for captain
Ortls Hamilton's. Young men of "Col
fax who were out Of town telegraphed
their enrollment, 'and In two days the
list had run. up (to over 160 names. But
fate was against them.' The governor
decided to send out only such oompa
nies as had been in the then disorgan
tred national guard, and although young
Captain Hamilton and his friends used
every pressure anil political, wire, gov
ernor Rogers turned a deaf ear to their
entreaties. Colfax people say that or
tls Hamilton took the disappointment
much to heart, but he would not allow
his friends and the members of his
company to know how bad he felt.
Even when the second call cam and
again the Colfax company was turned
down, the young captain kept his men
together by his own enthusiasm and the
nope that something mignt happen mat
woulj get them into the service of tholr
country. - ; ,
Vemembered by Governor Bog-en,
The Terslsteney of the Colfax com
pany's captain In time bore fruit, for
when Governor Rogers decided that the
national guard men who bad left the
state had resigned from the guard sfld
a new organization was In order, he
commissioned Ortls Hamilton a captain
in the now inrst Washington.
In the reorganization and reduction
or the national guard In 1901 the Col
fax. company was retained in the serv
icer becoming Company L, of the new
Second . Washington. Just about that
time. James A. Drain was made adju
tant general ana i 'amain Hamilton as
senior captain, received his first promo
tlon. jery soon after that Colonel
Welsenberger died: Lieutenant Colonel
Lamping was made colonel, and Major
rtamiiTon took 1 ..ampin s place. in
1906 General Drain resigned, and Gov
ernor Mead selected Lieutenant Colonel
Hamilton, who In politics was a Demo
crat, as Drain's successor.

was new, ami at times there was some
friction. It was then General Hamilton

(Speclsl Dispatch- ta Tha Journal.)
Tacoma, May 8. Tacoma friends f
Or Hamilton, the brilllant'young sUte
milftary leader whose ruin and disgrace
through the wiles of a woman were
revealed yesterday, are without excep
tion shocked and grieved at the news of
his downfall. Though It had been known
that Hamilton had been leading rather

spire the most explicit confidence in his
integrity. He was a general favorite
at the principal clubs of this city, where
he -was an occasional visitor. Now that
the story of his disgrace has come out
men are tales about town ' of several
wild toy rides in a. powerful auto from

Hamilton's last night of his gay ca

came over from Seattle Monday evening

th'eVrun was 1 hour and 80 minutes,
which lj going some when the nature of
tne route or 40 miles Is considered. The
Moore woman, however, recently made
the trip In 10 minutes less time.
The party went back to Seattle In the
sma'i hours or tne morning and Hamil
ton, as soon as he arrived there, with
a guilty conscience, but apparently with
a light heart, obeyed the governor's
summons and went to Olympla to meet
accusation, confession and open dis

a wealthy Palouse county farmer, whose
place four miles from Pullman is a
famous shownpiaee for visitors. The

a public office: the particular, snecial
and all devouring and all consuming
matter that caused his election had not
yet been carried thfeugh. He was
elected because he had announced him-
seir puDiiciy in ravor or a certain polit
ical proposition.
Hot Tet Time.
The time to act upon that proposition
)iad not yet come. Before that time ar
rived the doctor voluntarily published
a statement in a newspaper in relation
to that matter. The statement called
forth an Interview from another news
paper. In that interview and I speak

that It was time for the Republican,
Statement No. 1 men to get together
and hold a conference. In another place
he stated that he had serious doubts
whether that pledge did require that a
Republican should vote for a Democrat.
He said that, before casting his vote he
wautea to know -something about how
the successful Democratic nominee for
United States senator before the neonle
stood on certain questions, and a num
ber of other things which clearly and
entirely. In my opinion. Justified every
thing that was said about him. Thev
had a right to say he was unstable anil
unfair, that there waa no certalntv
about what he was going to do. Those,
under the circumstances, were clearly
not libelous. They were Justified oc
casions, and a communication that the
paper nasi a right to make to the peo

were Interested in ascertaining- wltr
ne stood; tne paper had a right to find
out -nd comment on what Dr. Davis
himself said: and I cannot see, under the
ctrcumstanoes, there was anything li
belous about it.

I think that the truth so appears on
the cross-examination of Dr. Davis as
to require me to sustain this motion

been caused the unhappy hours It seems
he did endure byi reason of this publica
tion, but. as a leal proposition, I am
unable to discover he ought to recover
damages, or that the matter should go

The motion for an involuntary non

Its costs and disbursements to bo taxed.
Curtain Falls on riaaoo.
The blow fell with apparent heavi
ness on Davis and his attorneys, tho
former smiling wearily and faintly as
his last hope of winning a fortune on
a Journal editorial were blasted. Per
mission was asked by his attorney for
30 days lu which to file a bill of ex
ceptions. Thua ends as a fiasco the case be
gun Jast July by Davis, in which he
claimed great Impairment of his health
because of what The Journal said about
him. It ended without The Journal
oeing required to produce a word of
icaumony, ana it enaed in a clear cut
vindication of everything that was said
by The Journal as -to his wobbly and un
certain political character.
Judge MoTrow, Just before the close
of court last evening, expressed his
opinion of the law ,of the caite a f
appeared to him up to that time, this
opinion being confirmed by the extended
argument this morning. He then gave
me attorneys ror uavls Talr warning
that unless they could show him a ntn
more law on their side they would not
stay in court. In substance the Judge
then said:
Court Bevlews 1908 Campaiff.
"Last year there Was a sham, snnnnv

was of peculiar Intensity, peculiar to
Oregon, for it was the first time in
tne united States that here was a cam

The election, one of the stena in thha

nothing that attacks or relates to hla

with his public attitude, his possible

Darts Invited Criticism.
He had brought, about this contro

was intended for publication. In this
situation, as a public man, he could ex

but they were, In effect, an admission
of the charge. The governor says Ham
ilton, when told his accounts were short,
asked Secretary Dallman and Adjutant
General Lamping to leave the room.
Governor Hay told Hamilton the Seattle
woman naa tnrown nirn down ana inti
mated she might be, arrested. Hamilton
sought to shield the woman, and said
if -the governor would protect ber be
would "come through. '
"Hamilton picked up two vouchers
from tho pile in front of him and said
they were bad ones," said the governor
this morning. "I would consider It as
an admission of guilt."
The Woman In the Case.
This morning Hamilton emphatically
denied the suggestion that the woman
might come to this city to see him.
Mrs. Hasel Moore, as she is called,
has visited Olympla In the past, once
last fall during the absence of General
Hamilton, coming here with another
man and registering at the hotel under
another name. She made inquiries about
Hamilton and seemed disappointed he
waa not In town. She told several ner-
sons she was a cousin of Hamilton, and
attempted to get a check .cashed, but
without success.
Hamilton visited here in an automo
bile about three weeks ago, Mrs. Moore
It Is aald, being one of the women of
the party. They stayed but a few hours.
There is a report that the women ac
companied Hamilton on his trip east to
the big Camp Perry, Ohio, rifle shoot
and on to Washington and other cities
last summer. During this time Mrs.
Hamilton was on a visit In California
Hamilton's ramily Affairs.
For some time previous to the sep
aration of Hamilton and his wife lie
had not been living with her and rarely
called on her.
Hamilton s brother. Boyd Hamilton,
now mayor of Coeur d Alene City,
Idaho, learning something of the wo
man in Seattle and the strained rela
tions here, came on with his wife, vis
ited about two weeks with Mrs. Hamil
ton and seeing the situation was hope
less, prevailed upon Mrs. Hamilton and
their daughter, 9 years old, to aeeom-
any them home to Idaho to live. The
ousehold goods were all moved at the
time. Mrs. Hamilton's maiden name
was Mary Savige and she came of a
well known family of Pomeroy, Wash.,
not far from Colfax, Hamilton's old
home, where his father was a pioneer
druggist and owned a thousand acre
wheat ranch.
