PAOR I IIKNJ) Ill'l.LKTIN, HUM) OHIXJON, TlU'ltHDAV, Jl'XK HI, HUN MRS. BERTHA LAMB FOUND NOT GUILTY (Prom "Wednesday's Daily.) Tho Jury empayolled to try Mrs. Bertha Lamb on a chnrgo of murder for having killed her husband, H. O. Lamb, nt Paisley February 2G, last Friday night rendered a verdict of aeoulttnl, after having been out but a few hours, says tho Lako County Examiner, Tho prosecution was conducted by T. S. McKlnney, L. H. Webster and C. H. Combs, whllo S. A. Jctmoro conducted tho defonso. Uoth tho defenso and prosecution wcro ably represented, nlthough tho prosecution was unablo to refute the 'testimony of tho defonso. Tho ac count given by Mrs. Lamb while on tho witness stand of tho many mis deeds and acts of tho deceased prior to tho killing evldontly Impressed ,tho Jury, and a verdict' was quickly reached. ' - Mrs. Lamb atated that she and her husband had numerous quarrels after their marriage, and at uo tlmo 'did ho treat her with duo respect. At ono tlmo ho struck her with a stick on tlio head, and tho services ot a physician wero required to dress thu wound. Numerous gun plays wero also a part ot their married life, and when sho fired tho fatal shot ho was advancing upon her with a stick In his hand, threatening her with bodily Injury. Tho caso has attracted wldo at tention becauso of tho prominence ot Mr. Lamb, as well as tho notoriety which Mrs. Lamb achieved during her rcsldcnco In this valley. SPENCE IDOL OF STATE GRANGE (Continued from Pago .1.) And thero Is also no question that qulto a number ot tho grangers who Toted against linking up with tho league aro nevertheless somewhat In ' lovo with It and voted against tho endorsement as they believed it would be an unwise move for tho grange t becomo .affiliated with any political organization at this time. i Tho upshot ot tho matter Is that the leagua has lost tho grange, it vhas lost tho Farmers' union and a number ot other farmers' organiza tions, but it still has Spence. Our guess Is that Spence, with a new created salary of 1,200 buck per annum, and $1,500 for expenses, will now proceed to gumshoe over the state spreading Non-Partisan league talk, while ho also works In the interests ot the grange. He also will spread Walter Pierce-for-Gov-crnor talk and leave a trail ot 1t behind him as he goes. lMerco Out for League. Walter is going to like the Non Partisan league, because ho has a hunch that the league will amount to something in this state. If it amounts to something it will have rotes, and if there Is any ono thing that Walter Is going to dearly lovo this summer and next fall, it will be votes, and then more votes. Kionco Not a BOob. Walter and Spence, it may ho safely opined, will work gladly and gleefully together in the righteous causo of putting over Walter and the Non-Partisan league. And lest any one should bo misled let It be known right now that C. E. Spence Is not a boob by long odds. He sometimes has dust on his boots, and possibly his ncktio might appear spavined on occasions, but said C. E, Spenco is one of tho smoothest little actors in Oregon when It comes to slicing' up tho bacon. He has a seductive lino of talk which keeps the grangers panting to do something for him and underneath it all, in Justice to dined to bollovo that tho mora tho government owns tho bettor off aro the pooplo. Ho also Is always on tho Job and Charley-on-the-spot whon It comes to Spenco or tho grange, and generally tho grange can't bo particu larly blamed for hanging onto him, Tho grange probably overestimates its own strength throughout the state a trillo, and porhnps takes itself u littlo. too 8or!ously. Hut on tho wholo It does accomplish something every onco In a while and Spenco has none some tall hustling tor It and Spenco. League Xot MonM Hut the Non-Partisan leaguo Is probably no very serious meuaco In Oregon. Oregon has about every thing that tho lenguo could oft or In tho way of progrosslvo legislation nnd the machinery to sccuro anything else tho pooplo wish. So why tho loaguo? That question was aBkcd many times by tho grangers who voted against tho league endorse ment, but still havo considerable sympathy with tho leaguo movement. Chinnock Resigns. James T. Chinnock, water division superintendent tor this sldo ot tho mountains, has quit his Job to start practicing law at Grants Pass. His resignation becomes offectlvo Juno 15. Tho resignation Is Interesting in Central Oregon from tho fact thai ho will bo succeeded by Percy A. Cupper, assistant stato engineer and secretary ot tho desert land board. Cupper was the nominee to succeed Chin nock, and as a result Governor Wlthycombo will appoint him to tho Job. Tho secretary of tho desert land board is quite Intimately asso ciated with business affairs on tho Central Oregon project. Who his successor will bo Is a question for tlmo to decide. It should seem logical that tho heavy tapping which bank deposits havo received from large Liberty loans would causo a dropping off In that direction, but a bank statement recently prepared by Superintendent of Banks Dennett shows that during tho past year the deposits throughout Oregon havo Increased woll over $25,000,000. Why this is so is a problom for financiers to solvo not newspapermen. It's a cinch Jho lat ter class of citizens havo not had much to do with tho aforesaid in crease. Speaking about tho superintend ent ot banks, that is another offlco which may suffer with Hoff's star In tho ascendency for tho state trcas- urcship. A small bit ot historical bunk in that regard might not be without Interest. It will bo remem bered that when Superintendent of Danks Sargent resigned several months ago, Secretary Olcott stood out for tho appointment of Charles Stewart, a Democrat, on the recom mendation of Sargent. Stato Treas urer Kay stood for Dennett. Gov ernor Wlthycombo expressed him self as favoring an unnamed party, but voted with Kay to keep harmony on tho board. Since that time, so hitherto un written history records, a bright young man came up to Salom from Albany Imbued with the Idea of be coming a stato bank examiner under Dennett, Evcryono else who had anything to do with it was Imbued with the same Idea and the deal was about settled until, as report goes, Dennett suggested casually that It would be a nlco thing to support Ryan for tho treasureshlp. Ed. i Cuslck, who was a candidate for stato treasurer, Is an Albany banker, and when tho suggestion was offored to tho young man, ho returned to Albany in a huff and refused to ac cept tho place. Xow that is the story as It is told. Whether it Is truo or not has no bearing on tho situation now In hand. Tho story has no doubt reached the car of Nominee YOUR DRUG STORE lhermos Bottles You need one on your Auto or Cairipiug Trip. Hot drinks kept hot Cold drinks kept cold.

Ryan's defeat, In fact, will prac tically clean out tho Kay Intluonco In tho stato capttol. No ono believes that Kay has given up tho idoa of politics for good. Ho loves it like a kid loves Ico cream soda. No ono can convince Kny that if ho had been a candldato against Wlthycombo In 1913 that ho (Kay) would havo been dofeatcd. Ho feels It in his bones that ho could have won at that time. Dut ho laid down nnd apparent waning popularity caused him to count himself out at this time. Kny May Ho Candidate. nut he will no doubt wish to come back in tho tuturo and it isn't a rash guess to say that ho might bo a contender for the governorship In another four yearn. llnd'Hyun boon nominated Kay would stilt havo had considerable Influence In tho oapltol, With ltynn n Kny man for eight yearn, nnd with u nuiubnr of up. pointers spread about, such n seal era ot wolghlH and uienmiroH, nnd othor men that Kny put on the Job and Unit Hyatt uo doubt would koop 'there, tho littlo oimlno In tho , Kay political nmohino could havo been oiled dally and kept running Htuoothly, j As It Is, thlngn will bo dllToreut. Hut oven at that Kay will uo doubt bob Into tho limelight again when tho proper times comes. Thorn Is no danger, at least, of his forgetting that thorn Is such n thing as polities In tho Interim nnd lie will he watch ing and waiting. Ho had to stay out ot tho treasurer's light this tlmu be cause tho constitution confines a candldato for that offlco to but two cousocutlvo terms. Kay's strength Is still largely problematical, but that ho has a heavy following still sooms to bo without doubt. That ho probably has lost considerable of his strength of four or live years ago seems equally certain. Hut with or without It won't cut much odds for two or thrco years nt least. Initiative petitions for signatures aro beginning to make their appear- nnccs In large numbers In this sec tion, Tho completed potltlous must ho in by July 3, and consequently thero Isn't much chance of any fur ther measures coming betoro the pcoplo next November than those which already have been discussed at length before. wm XOTIC Olt)U.7 IIHKI !
