When the bulletin boards yesterday af ternoon chronicled a shut out for the home team,' the anxious watchers could hardly believe their eyes. Such a thing had never happened before, and base bal enthusiasts did- not believe it pos sible. But the sting of defeat Is some what deadened by, the fact that the Salem aggregation has , succeeded In hutting out every other team In the Valley League, commencing with Eu gene, byt the score of 14 to 0. Since. the Salem and Ejigene teams met in the arena, Eugene has signed an al most entirely lie wteam, so the boys hardly knew what: to expect, but the unanimous conclusion of the baseball enthusiasts last night was "they can't do It again." : Reference to the score shows that the defeat was entleely due to errors made by the home team, and not to good playing In .the part of Eugene. The Salem boys aret- credited with six errors, all made by the infield. Not an error is charged to the outfield, the fielders; playing their customary scien tific ball. Morris, In the box, played good ball from the first inning to the last, not making a single errorf and fanning out eight of the Eugene play ers. Only, five times were the Eugene players able to Bod the ball, but from four of them they landed home' runs, while Salem Is credited with eight hits, from none of which they were able to make a score 8a Ism.

PETITION HAS MANY SIGNERS ..." . . v. ': " Executive Qemency Prayed for in Behalf of Murderer ! Peacock NAMES OF SEVENTY-SEVEN OF LEADING CITIZENS OF POLK COUNTY ATTACHED ASKING FOR COMMUTATION OF SENTENCE TO LIFE IMPRISONMENT. . (From Saturday's Daify. One , of the strongest petitions ever presented to; the Governor of Oregon, asking for executive clemency, was re ceived yesterday jby Governor George E. Chamberlain, from Oscar Hayter, a prominent attorney of Dallas, and the counsel for William Pf Teacock. In the late trial by which he was convicted of murdering Alexander S.. Kerr." at Park ers. Polk county, on May 18, 1903, and sentenced to be hanged at the State Penitentiary on August 7. The petition was accompanied by a petition signed by seventy-seven of the most promi nent citizens of Polk county, headed by County Judge J. E. Sibley, and J. C. Hayter, mayor, of Dallas, praying for commutation of sentence. j . The petition sets forth that "Peacock was born of insane inheritance,, and very early in life exhibited symptoms of degeneracy, which have attended him throughout. From defective develop ment his physical strength was impair ed when two or three years of age. re sulting in an extreme curvature of the spine, producing the well-marked de formity commonly known as hunch back During childhood he was eccen tric, shy, and inclined to be alone, not associating with other children. After reaching adult life, he began to -develop delusions of persecution, which are an occasional feature of this form of degenerancy. As long as twelve years ago he had an altercation and shooting affray with this man Kerr, whom he recently killed. His morbid mental condition gave a coloring and. signifi cance to ordinary and unimportant events that affected his entice life. He believefl the neighborhood to be leagued against him, interfering with his pros pects, hindering his advancement, mak ing him unable to pursue his ordinary calling, and this all with the ultimate purpose of taking his life. He regarded this man Kerr as the leader of his con spiracy, and hence as an enemy to be feared, and later to be hated. To pro tect himself from the loss of his , own life he was at length driven to com mit the deed which, upon trial, has landed him in the Penitentiary with the sentence of execution hanging over him. , . . 1 . . ; , - "The uniform testimony of all the wit nesses was that at no time did this man Kerr furnish provocation, slight, or injury, to cause this belief on the part; of Peacock, but that on the con trary he strove 4o -avoid Peacock and in no -way to interfere withr him. , Goaded and harrassed. his rest broken -at night by. thoughts of his being persecuted, his happiness impaired, , and in constant fear of the impending death." which 'he believed threatened him, ' Peacock at length, to protect himself, committed this deed. " f 'i ''!''.;.; "It is then respectfully submitted that an act committed under the promptings and influence of these insane delusions. Is the act of an irresponsible person not properly, punishable by death. The safety of the community would be am ply guaranteed by "his safe seclusion In the Oregon State Prison, where no op portunity for the repetition of such an irresponsible crime would be furnished" Dr. W. T. Wlllamson. he Asylum physician, decided, after a thorough ex amination .that the man .was not re sponsible, and so. testified at the trial which ended on June 19. by the prison er being sentenced to be hung. Other physicians have also made similar, ex aminations with the same result, and In 'view j of these ,; facts, not only the friends of the prisoner, but also almost all of the citizens of Polk county, are resolved to leave no stone unturned in their "efforts to secure a cummutation of sentence from hanging, to Imprison ment for lift In the Penitentiary. . The Governor has as yet taken no ac tion In the matter, but as soon as he returns from Portland, probably ! next Tuesday, he will set a day for consid ering the petition and hearing any fur ther arguments to be made.

This has come to be one of the most common forms of escaping taxation, as state land is not. taxable until a deed for the land has been issued.

Brown has pre pared circulars containing the orders of the board, and instructions to the cer tificate holder, which, he is mailing to all of the delinquents. They read as follows: ' " y.-- .
