Day In County Jail Will Be Sen

Pleased.
SANTA ROSA, Cal., Jan. 28.
Despite efforts of IiIh attorneys to
secure his release, Dr. Wlllard 1'.
Hurke, proprietor of the llurke san
itarium, who, at midnight, was found
Bullty of IinvltiK dynamited tho tent
of Lu Hltu Smith last February,
Bpent today in a cell at the county
Jail. He will remain there until 10
o'clock Monday, when ho will be
sentenced, and when his motion for a
new trial and release on ball pendltiK
It Is scheduled to como up before
Judge Kmmott Scawoll.
Tho clinrKR against Dr. Hurko was
"exploding dynamite In a building
Inhabited by a human being."
At the home of the deputy sheriff
where she has been under surveil
lance since Dr. Durke's trial began,
Lu Kttn Smith received tho newH of
his conviction today. She waB pleas
ed, she told a United Press roporter,
and lu her next breath sho said she
would still love Dr. Hurke had the
verdict been lu his favor.
"I'm awfully sorry my lovo for
Dr. Hurko turned out as It did," she
said. "I loved him so much that I
couldn't have thought ho tried to
kill me and our baby, and if he had
boon proved Innocent I would still
lovo him."
Dr. IJurko accopted his conviction
philosophically. After refusing to
Issue a statement ho re-consldored
and said that he already was plan
ning to tnlco his fight for freedom to
the highest court If his motion for n
new trial wore donlod.
"I havo been accustomed since
boyhood to tnko things as thoy
come," said Hurko. "The verdict, of
course, was a disappointment, but I
am innocent, and I eventually will be
able to jirovo It. I have studied phil
osophy and am now able to apply It
lu my own case. I must say that I
was surprised at tho Jury, ns I had
expected an Immediate acquittal."
I)r, llurko's wife, accompanied by
Mrs. Grlggsby, her friend, and boon
companion since the trial began, call
ed at tho jail today early to sco her
husband. They met lu the Jail's out
er office and tallied quietly together
for nearly an hour. Mrs. Hurke
arrived at and left tho Jail In a clos
ed automobile and refused to be In
terviewed on tho outcome of the trial
The explosion occurred February D,
. wrecking Miss Smith's tent, but In
juring her only slightly. Her baby,
whose paternity sho charged to Dr.
llurke, was not hurt. Tho explosion
at first was supposed to have been
accidental, but a belated Investiga
tion resulted In an indictment
against tho aged sanitarium keeper.
Shortly afterward Miss Smith dis
appeared, but later was located In
Japan. Other witnesses also disap
peared and tho trial was drawn out
four months,

SACRAMENTO. Cal.. Jan. 28.
Predicting a terrible war with Japan
within two years If the coolie Immi
gration clause be eliminated from
the proposed Japanese-American con
vention, Senator J. II. Sanford of
Uklah today prepared a resolution to
be submitted to the senate when it
shall convene Monday.
"If the coolie clause in not allowed
to stand," said Sanford, "hundreds
and thousands of coolies will enter
the country and without an anti
alien law to hold them In check, will
fill every part of tho rich valleys of
California.
"Tho Japanese not only become
farmers and laborers, but they also
become lessees of lands and the coin
merce of California would soon be
under the domination of a race that
cannot co-mlugle with Americans.
"The best way to handle the ques
tion is to meet It firmly like Amer
ican patriots; to have America for
Americans. This is a white man's
country, and the white man must run
It."

attain, for It enables one engine to

difficult for several engines to pull

tral avenfie Saturday afternoon. His
team, frightened at a covered rig of
the Wells Fargo Fxpress company,
raced from in front of the postofflce
townrds and across Main street. At
the corner lu front of the Jackson
County bank, Prewer made a flying
leap at the speeding wagon, and hy
good fortune landed on the side rail
five and a half feet above tho pave
ment. Grasping the reins with one
hnnd and clinging to the wagon with
the other, ho guided tho runaway
team down Central avenue and final
ly brought them to a standstill in
front of the Southern Oregon hos
pital.
The daring leap was witnessed by
several hundred people, who formed
the Saturday aftern'on crowd on
Main street. Fxpci lenced horsemen,
In from the hills, said that nothing
to equal it they had ever seen out
side of a circus.
Joe Prewer, although palo and
breathless, took the congratulations
of his fellows with modesty. Do said
that he had been horn and raised on
a Texas cattlo ranch.

dorsed San Francisco but lie has de
termined to inject himself person
