J. I LILLIE IS
NEW WARDEN FOR
STATE'S PRISON
Governor Pierce Appoints
Chief Deputy Following
Long Conference
IS VETERAN OFFICER
Turmoil at Penitentiary
' Takes New Angle With
Change in Executive
SALEM, Ore., Dec. 5.
J. W. Lillie was today ap
pointed by Governor Pierce
as warden of the state peni
tentiary to succeed A. M.
Dalrymple. The change is
effective at once.
Lillie has been deputy
warden of the prison under
Dalrymple and prior to that
served as deputy under
Johnson Smith, beginning
his duties as deputy June
1, 1923. Dalrymple has been
warden since October 8,
1923.
Immediately upon his ap
pointment today Lillie an
nounced the appointment of
Captain W. E. Golden, a
guard at the prison, as his
deputy.
Dalrymple returned only
last night from a month's
trip to Jackson, Miss, where
he attended a national pri
son conference, and a visit
to the Wisconsin reforma
tory at Green Bay, and the
Mississippi penitentiary at Parkman,
his resignation, which rwas announc
ed immediately after a conference
with the governor early this morn
ing, is considered a result of the
prison break of August 12, in which
two guards were killed, and sub
sequent publicity of an unfavor
able nature relative to his admin
istration of prison affairs.
Quit on Kequest 1
That Dalrymple resigned at the
roquest of the governor Is unques
tioned hero, and why the change
was made immediately afier Dal
rymple had been sent on a long
quest for prison information In the
south is causing considerable quan
dary. Prior to being appointed warden
Dalr.-mplc was commissary at the
prJ&an, a position (Which he also
held about 20 years ago. He has
been active In democratic politics In
Oregon for years and under tho
Wilson administration was connect
ed with the Internal rovonue service.
Is Former Sheriff
Mr. Lillie, thu new warden, was
formerly sheriff of Ollliam entity,
unci lived at Condon. He Is a
graduate of McMlnnvlllo college,
now known as Llnfleld cottage.
Mr. Dalrymple, tho outgoing war
den, said today that bo his made
no plans for tho future. He was
appointed warden to succeed John
son Smith when tho latter was re
moved by the governor because of
criticism leveled at the adtnlnintr.i
Uon on account of many escapes
from tho penitentiary.
