1 t)all! Is a candidate for the Republican
''nomination for congress from, the new
( eastern Oregon district Ho made

land, having: come down' on legal bual
'(:: ineaa, ";,.""'
Blnnott'a candidacy Is expected to
' head off some other aspirants, who oth-
1' erwlae might have entered the race. His
clali k to, progressive support Is expected
to appeal strongly to eastern Oregon
voters, and fie Is one of the best known
- men In the district, having lived there
l alt his life.
ti J In 1908 Slnnott was elected to the
state senate from Wasco and Hood River
counties, and he made a distinctly pro-
sreeslve record during the sessions of
fliOi and 1911. Elected on a Statement
Mo.f-1 platform, he adhered strongly to
that, principle when it was put to the
; test, and be has been a consistent advo
;, cat of progressive measures throughout
his term. He Is 41 years of age, a native
of Wasco county; and Is a brother of
Roarer- B. Slnnott of Portland,
i "I -have not yet" formulated "my plat
form." said Senator Slnnott today, "but
I will continue to stand for the pro
gressive measures I have advocated and
for like principles in national affairs.
I am In fvor of presidential primaries,
flection of United States senators by
direct 'vote of the people, and the in
come tax.
"As to the tariff, I shall stand with
the progressive Republicans in congress
who. advocate a scientific revision of
the schedules;, keeping; in mtnd the pro
tective principle, i- wlll lf elected, do
what I can to secure for Oregon a Just
share of the Irrigation funds, as well I
as the appropriations to which Oregon
is entitled." , -. . ' ' - . .
Mr. Slnnott says he will make an ac
tive campaign, making a speaking tour
through the big district he seeks to rep
resent. His formal declaration will not
be filed for a week or two.
Only two other .candidates for the
nomination are now In the field. Both
are from Ia Grande, George T. Cochran
and John P. Rusk. The latter has made
an extensive preliminary canvass, but
there Is said to be a possibility of his
withdrawal. R. R. Butler of The Dalles
who has also considered entering the
race, will support Slnnott,

directs also that Mrs. Warner pay to
Mrs. Clara Plekard of .Walla Walla

Mrs. Plekard was to have been the
fourth wife of Young, according to Mra.
Warner. Dave Lavender Is named ex

Thinks 4th WU1 Genuine Too.
In explanation today, Mrs. Warner
said: "I believe the fourth will because
of which I have Just been tried for, for
gery is 'genuine but never have believed
it to be the last one. I knew one had
been' made in 1J04, but thought Watts
had destroyed It, but since the su
preme court decision reversing Judge
Bean's decision giving me the property,
I have been working night and day to
locate the missing will.
Night after night I drove, my team
to Weston, and many are the conversa
tions I overheard between Dr. Watts
and his wife and others, and at last I
received the clue for which Iwas wait

Xnr Searches In the Dark.
"I overheard Mrs. Watts ask her hus
band if he waa sure the will had bean
buried, and he replied he had left that
to Hall, cashier of the bank. Tben I
began a search of Hall's premises under
cover of darkness, and finding nothing;
there I began searching the ground
back of the bank, and I was rewarded
by the discovery of a box containing;
the will. I have a witness, a well
known Pendleton man, who will testify
that I read that will In the streets of
Weston by the glare of his automobile
headlight. Dr. Watts learned in somo
way I Dad tne win, ana u was ne wno
started the prosecution against me in
hope of sending me to the penitentiary
before I could prove the will.
Says Enemy Xs the Will Totgn.
"I believe he forged other wills and
sent them to me In hope of making the
case against me bad. I have enough
proof of this beflef to enable me to se
cure an Indictment aratnat him In any
court In the United States.
"I will offer my will for probate Just
as soon as I can secure my witnesses to
prove the signatures of West and Hun-ilker."
