Despite the great confidence felt by
Salem people In the ability of the Sa
lem baseball team to meet all comem,
the home team yesterday afternoon
went down to a nignomlnous defeat be
fore the Eugene baseball team, on the
Kugene diamond, by the score of 4 to 0.
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

Governor Chamberlain yesterday is
sued a proclamation offering a stand
ing reward for the arrest and convic
tion of any person attempting to rob
a passenger on a public or private
convfijraioe withUv -the state of Ore
gon. I This , action was called out by
the recent bold Oropbery of a street car
containing forty passengers, and the
shooting of one ol . the victims with
out reason. After the robbery the
bold bandits escaped and no efforts of,
the Portland pVlice'arid detective force
have been successful,, in running them
to ' earth.' Highway, robbery has be
come a common occurrence, especial
ly around Portland, but the city has
shown nq iqyspositionito offer any re
ward for' heir .apprehension, so Gov
erarCnamberfain determined yester
day to lake-,the , matter in his own
hands, and the' reward, offered will ap
ply, not only to' the principals In the
late robbery, i but also to. any similar
robbery in the future, even if a lone
traveler Is held up In a private con
veyance ". and rerleved of his ; sap re
change. - ; .. . ':
"Sucn 'ro'b'beries'ccur quite frequent
ly in the vicinity of the Capital City,
and It is barely possible that the
standing reward offered in the Gov
ernor's proclamation , may serve ma
terially in apprehending: highwaymen
in Marion, county, t There is nothing
so. much feared by robbers as a re
ward 'offered; or ' their capture, and
this standing offer of 3300 will prob
ably prevent' many robberies in; the
future, which would otherwise occur.
People wilh-make-strenuous efforts to
apprehend a crlmfhaT"When a cash re
ward I is Offered, Whereas, otherwise
they would preferto run no risk by
contact with sujji . Jndlvlduals, The
Governor's proi.rralrtatlon follows: '.

Pursuant to 'the power vested In me
by section 2385 of Bellinger and Cot

Executive Qemency Prayed
for in Behalf of Murderer

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. By pay
ing but a few dollars of - the, purchase
price, the holder of certificates of sale
escapes taxation, and still pays only a
nominal amount of interest into the
state treasury. . MV. 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

will be one of the wonders of the world,
so it is stated by a late issue of the.
Zion Banner.
" It will be the largest auditorium for
religious purposes ever erected; 3 the
largest building ever erected for au
diences to hear one man; the most
complete modern house of worship in
the world : exterior 4 of - red pressed
brick, and framework of the " interior
of steel. The new building will cost
$400,000. . 3
The rvind of Man. j
John W. Dowie is described as a
man with powerful, magnetic bearing,
a leader of men, and . more especially
of those easily led. He Is an organizer.
He is not a man of great erudition, but
he has a grasp of affairs that Is won
derful. ' Many who see and heir him
and watch the progress of his under
takings believe he is not sincere in his
religious fervor; -that' he is merely a
schemer. ' - : 'O' i.h
His followers look up to him as al
most divine, and they follow him Im
plicitly, j It is understood that they
give him all their worldly goods when
they become residents of Zlon City,
and that he in turn agrees to supply
Ihelr worldly , wants. -. It is a form oN
Socialism.''' ;' ;': vl:, IX..,.
It seems strange that such a man Is
able to reach .clear ut here to Salem.
Oregon, and draw in one of our. fami
lies. But this is not an Isolated case.
He has secured, followers from all over
tlm- United .States and all over the
World. u -I '- J'.. ' v.'.-' .
X There will be an end to all this, as
there baa been an end to every similar
movement In the world. . John Alex
ander ; Dowie. proprietor. ' leader and
emperor, will die. and there win be no
pne to take, his place. It will get
old. this enthusiasm. ' Differences will
grow up. u Put in t he mean time-Dowie-is
having wonderful success In ac
eumula.ting a great deal of money and
a great aggregation of cranks. - and
eoroe who but" for their Joining the
Dowle colony would not be regarded as
crank. .. .. ... ., .. . ,
