IN JACKSONVILLE
BANK CASE LIKELY
Medford. Dr., Oct 29. Following
the Indictments' announced Thurs
day against William H. Johnson,
president and cashier, his half
brother, R. D. Hines, vice; president
of the wrecked Bank of Jackson
ville, and Mrs. Myrtle Blakeley,
county treasurer of Jackson county,
and the adjournment of the grand
Jury until November 5, it is an
nounced that the Jury Investigation
into the affairs of the defunct bank
is far from completed and will be
resumed.
Further indictments are expected
against others with probable additional
counts against President Johnson. The
fact that only three indictments have
been returned against Johnson has
caused general surprise.
WIDE FIELD COVERED
It has been learned that the grand
Jury Investigation covers a wide field.
R. D. Hines, formerly of Hlnes A Sny
der, automobile dealers in Medford, was
unable to obtain ball of $10,000 Thurs
day. Johnson has been In jail since the
failure of the bank.. Both will enter
pleas in court Saturday forenoon. Mrs.
Blakeley. who pleaded not guilty when
arraigned, was released on her own re
cognizance. Much general sympathy is
felt for her, as it is the prevalent be
lief, even of District Attorney Roberts,
that she is guiltless of any criminal in
tent and is merely the victim of unfor
tunate circumstances by which the
county loses an amount said to be from
$60,000 to more than $100,000. A number
of her many friends maintain that she
is "the goat" of tbbank failure.
TWO CHARGES MADE
One indictment against her charges
malfeasance in office and the other with
aiding and abetting a bank cashier to
make a false statement to the bank ex
aminer. Of the eight Indictments against
Hines four charge that he knowingly fal
sified statements to the bank examiner,
three charge that he received deposits in
a known Insolvent bank and one charges
that he certified to a check when the
known drawer did not have any money
to his credit, all presumably while, as
vice president, he was in charge of the
bank when President Johnson was in the
Bast attending a national church convention.
Chamberlain Wagers
Begging; Stanfield
Backers Disappear
Eighty-seven hundred dollars to bet
on Chamberlain Is burning holes out
of the strong box at the Sol Stiller
cigar store, with no Stanfield money
in sight.
A couple of days ago It was whis
pered through betting circles that there
was $3000 of Stanfield money at Stil
ler's. As a result of the rumor Cham
berlain money began to flood the Stil
ler till, until there Is now $8700 there
waiting to be covered, while enough
more is on the way to boot the ante
to $10,000 or more. v
There has been a great deal of talk
at the Stanfield headquarters in the
Portland hotel about Stanfield admir
ers hungry to back their candidate
with coin, but up to the present time,
when any Chamberlain money has ap
peared, the Stanfield admirers have
faded away.

HARD N6 SAI SHED
OHO VO
FOR HIM
By Floyd MacGrifr
Akron, Ohio, Oct. 29. (I. N. S.)
-A series of impromptu rear plat
form speeches were to be delivered
today by Senator Warren G. Hard
ing, Republican presidential candi
date, en route to Cincinnati, where
tonight he will deliver his last but
one prepared address before elec
tion. He planned to review tonight
what he declares to be the "funda
mental incapacity" of the Demo
cratic administration and to outline
the Republican plans for retrench
ment and reconstruction along both
national and international lines.
Senator Harding's campaign party left
Akron before breakfast quite satisfied
that this section of Ohio was amenable
this year to Republicanism. The sen
ator was more than impressed by the
patience and enthusiasm of the Akron
audience-. 1000 of whom had to stand
in the Jammed armory during the 90
minutes of his address which dealt
chiefly with foreign affairs.
TUMLTY BREAKS SILENCE
TELLS OF
MARTYRDOM
(Continued From Face One)
"Two pictures are in my mind." he
said. "First, the hall of representatives,
crowded from floor to gallery with ex
pectant throngs. Presently it is an
nounced that the president of the United
States will address congress. There
steps out to the speaker's desk a straight,
vigorous, slender, active and alert mart.
He la 60 years of age, but looks not
more than 45, so lithe of limb, so alert
of bearing, so virile. It Is Woodrow
Wilson reading his great war message.
"The other picture is only ZV years
later.
"There is a parade of veteranj of the
great war. They are to be reviewed by
the president on the east terrace of the
White House. In a chair sits a man,
your president, broken in health, but
still alert in mind. His hair Is white,
his shoulders bowed, his figure bent.
He is 63 years old. but he looks older.
It Is Woodrow Wilson. Presently in
the procession there appears an ambu
lance laden with wounded soldiers, the
maimed, the halt and the blind. As they
pass they salute, slowly, reverently. The
president's right hand goes up to give
a salute. I glance at him. There were
tears In his eyes. The wounded is
greeting the wounded; those in the am
bulance, he in chair, are alike, casual
ties of the great war.
"I don't beljeve In his heart President
Wilson regrets his wounds. I fancy he
realises no man could die In a greater
cause, but I do sometimes wonder if
it ever seems to him strange that when
a man has been seriously wounded in
his country's service he should be met
with sneers and calumnies from his
countrymen. I think 'already the better
nature of America is awakening. Those
who have joined the chorus of calumnies
begin to grow ashamed of their un
chivalrous conduct, begin to resent the
tricks of politicians which beguiled them
info base ingratitude."
Channel Widening
Urged by Warren at
Kealty Board Meet
The necessity of immediately raising
funds and providing equipment to widen
and deepen the ship channel from Port
land to the sea was ursed by Frank M
Warren of the Port of Portland com
mission at a meeting of the Portland
Realty board in the grill room of the
Portland hotel at noon today.
.Warren explained that the commis
sioners had no Intention of purchasing
ground upon which earth dredged from
the bottom of the river is deposited.
The commissioners did believe. Warren
said, in the wisdom of filling Mock's
bottom as an Industrial center, but in
view of strong opposition having de
veloped to this plan, had pledged them
selves to leave the question of this
Improvement to a vote of the people.
W. M. Killlngsworth opposed the har
bor project, stating that there is an
abundance of deep water In the lower
Willamette river and the North Portland
harbor, to handle 10 times the traffic
now coming to this port. On motion
the question of endorsing the port meas
ure was laid over one week.

Offer of Marriage
Fails to Bring Halt
In White Slave Case
An offer of matrimony was made by
counsel for Alex Cooper In the federal
court this morning In an effort to clear
up a white slave indictment returned
Wednesday. When Assistant United
States Attorney Reames heard the re
quest, following the plea of not guilty, he
objected to such a light interpretation
being placed upon marriage and asked
that 'the woman in the case, Mrs. Maude
Stark, be arrested and placed under $500
bonds. Judge Wolverton ordered her ar
rest. Cooper's trial was set for Janu
ary IS.

cently when Cooper drove her out of
the house she complained to government
officials and told the story of their life.
Cooper owns a chicken ranch near Mil-waukie.

ENOUGH GRAPES TO
E STATE 'WET'
There were enough wine grapes
received in Portland from California
during the last 48 hours to make the
entire state "wet."
Eight carloads were received here
during that period, in addition to the
former liberal shipments, and more car
loads are said to be destined for the
Portland market.
According to the estimates made by
dealers, there are sufficient grapes in
the latest shipment alone to make 40,
000 gallons of wine.
These grapes are used for practically'
no other purpose than for wlnemaklng,
and the highest price on record $250 a
ton Is being .received by wholesalers
here. This compares with a normal
price during the real "wet" days of
about 110 a ton.
Despite the extreme price quoted for
these wine grapes, wholesalers report
that the demand was never so great.
