MR. UOLME9'S STATEMENT. He showed that President ft'. L. Chamberlain and Director C. Mrsh had not refused to defend against suit of Uofcr Rrns. for wages, but had asked that plaintiffs 9how a meritorious defense against that claim, and being unable to do mi, had refused to defend. Ho answered Mr, Carson's charge that pleadings admitted receiving 95000 from politicians. Tho pleadings showed admission of receiving over $2000 from advertising and subscriptions. If defendants had misappropriated funds of tho corpor ation to their own use they must be made to dUgorge to these btockhold crs. A corporation acting but u few times a year could act under Its seal, but a corporation transacting hun dreds ol items of business in the course of evory day could only do busl neis through a majority of Its stock holders. If It could not, then the minority was In control of tho busN ncs8. The original compensation of $25 a week to be paid to Hofer Bros, was voluntarily reduced during the panic years to $1200- and $1000 and SDOO a year. Tho books showed that Tub Journal received patronage from all political parties for advertising. Even Bingham and Davis had run bills for tho Republican party which they had not paid. It was an Illus tration of tho motlvo which actuated tbeso plaintiffs In obtaining stock. Did they feel guilty because they had not paid an honestly contracted bill ? Hofer Bros, were glad to make a full and fair statement of oyery dollar received by them In tho duo courso of business. They courted tho most searching investigation. If anything was not right or busincss-llko It could bo shown up to the court and corrected. Teh p'alntllTs could gain no Information lu this court that they could not have gained direct from the Hofer Bros. fMBK ojr' PMlNTIFr'fl was begun by Mr. Bingham going on tho stand. He testified that ho was u lawyor residing In Salem, a stock holder In Tub Capital Journal. lie stated efforts he had made to get O. Marsh and M. L. Chamberlain to mako defenso against the suit or Hofer Bros. Marsh and Chamberlain declined to Intcrposo a dofensc, or to authorize Mr Bingham to defend. He offered to conduct tho defenso with out expenso to anyone but himself. Chamberlain said ho had ono corpor ate litigation and wanted no more, (Thut was with Bingham.) Cross-examination by Helmes: Be foro meeting In July, when provision wus to ho mauo for paying tho debt, he talked with Mr. Chamberlain. Bcforo ho purchased tho stock of Mr. Broyman he was told there was no debt. Got Byars stock eurly in spring. Tho Waitostock ho gi'tj in Juno. Naycroxamlned tho books to sco if thoro was any debt. It wus roported that tho paper had no debt and discounted Its bills. Ho had lcarccd that Hofer Bros., agreed to mako no debts. Bingham directed the stock to b put In Davis's name, Paid $100 for Bynrs' stock, Paid 8225 cash for tho Wnlte itock. Was not uttorney for tho administrator. Admitted making out the order for the probato court. It was endorsed by him as attorney for tho administra tor of Wulto cstato by a clerk in his olllco. He drew up tho paper with out any charge. Ho only paid ono- half tho money for the Wulto stock, Davis held one-half thu stock, but I, L. Pattoison paid for It, Davis was chairman of tho county contrul com mittee. But that had nothing to do with It. Thcro was no politics In this matter. Had talked with Patterson about buying stock In Thk Journal. early In tho spring. They uIro bought the llyars stoik. During ono election witness was at the head of u commit tee and had shown feelings toward Hofer Bros, lu opposing tho payment of their bill. Witness claimed ho had been grossly misrepresented in tho papor. He and Putterson thought they could Buffer no loss on tho stock. Tlioy had con cluded that it was necessary to pay Hofer Bros, somo money, thresh tho publishers or buy some stock, Was never In tho otllco but once when the stook was transforcd to him. He was treated courteously by A, F. Hofer, Jr, C. Hughes, lute foreman In Tiik Journal otllco called. Worked for Hofer Bros, four years. At times thoy took vacations, K, Hofer took time oil to write a book on tho con duct nf primary elections. Ho tilled tho bill as editor. Always got copy to till up paper, Novr r examined thelrl books. Remarks were made ubout money being soiree. Adver tising wus paid part cash, part trado. All nowspapors do that. Could only estimate circulation. It was good. Dally about K500. Weekly took an hour and a half to print. Papers were all mailed ou, The railroad companies made contracts for advertising payable In transpor tation. Got u lot of tiling for adver tising estimated the material In the otllco wus worth about $1 WW. Tho paper was worth about Cioss- examined: got $10 a Salaries varied with hard $5000. week, times. When times fcot oettcr running ex penses were more. E. Hoicr was re porter as well as editor C. B, Irvlno culled! editor and pro prletor of Sentinel. Was un Capital Journal In 1883. Was worth $3000 to $3500 In 1388. Paper wus uarelevsly put together, Reasonable sorvlces of an editor ut Salem was $t? a week. Two moa could get out tho paper. Second man ought to get $1 a day, .-j-;jt -scanty fef THE EXCELENCE OF SYIUP OF FIGS Is duo not only tu the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to tho care and skill with which tt Is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fio Svnur Co. only, and wo wish to Impress upon nil the Importance of purchasing tho truo and original remedy. As tho genuine Syrup of Figs Is manufactured by the California 'Fio Svnur Co, only, a knowledge of that fact will insist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other par ties. The high standing of tho Cali fornia Fio BvHur Co. with the medi cal profession, and the satisfaction which tho genutno Syrup of Figs has given to millions of families, makes tho natno of the Company guaranty of tho excellence of its remedy. It is far In advance of all other laxatives, as it acts on tho kidneys, liver and bowels without Irritating or wenkon lu;r thorn, and it does sot grlpa nor nauseate. In order to get its beneficial effects, please remember the name of tho Company CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FRANCISCO, Gal. -iKv OTv. r&-rarir MILM.-. And board hliiisalf?" This wus asked" by Judgo Bolfie and caused a laugh. Mr. Irvlno did not consider that tho paper was well edited. With 1300 to 1500 dally subscribers and a weekly the good will of the business was worth $2,000. A plant capablo of putting out such a paper as Tub Journal wbh worth $2,000 (0 $2,600. Cross-examination by D. C. Sher man: Estimated good will of paper on whether subscribers were paid in advance or not, A radical ohungo or policy would atTcct valuation. Of fice employes on Statesman, wero two reportcrs.clty editor, managing editor, business manager, rxok-keoper and telegraph odltor. Was not prolitablo business. No wealth hud been ac quired in newspaper business at Salem. J. II. Fletchor called: Was icditor of the Weekly Independent since April 1, .1804: Journal was worth about $2500 In his opinion; wages of editor was worth $75 to $80 a month; ublllty and bUHI ho could not judgo. Judgo Boise ruled thut ono editor's opinion of another's ublllty In the samci town was not worth much. If an editor did no outside work ho ought to havo $15 a week; but ho always did a great deal more. Ono editor and two assistants ought tx got out a paper llko Tin: Journal. Cross-examined by Helmes: worked for hfmself,honco ho got toollttlopay; would not like to glyo $2,500 for Tub Journal; paid $1,250 for tho Inde pendent. Had ho not offered It for sale for less than that? This was objected to. Objection sustained, L. II. MoMahon culled: Wus editor und hulf owner of the Dally Indo pondent. Rcasonablo wages of cdltorr and local reporter could only bo slated relatively. Mr. Judith of tho States man got $12 a week. Fifteen u week was a rcasonablo compensation for such a man. Clood will plant and cycry tiling or tub journal was worth $3500, Would not give that for It. Ifofer Bros, wanted $5000 for their Intorcst In 1 80,1. OITorcd $2500 then. It wus not a bonulldo olTcr. Cross-ox by Helmes: Rovcuuo do vlvcd from advertising depends on circulation; Journal had a better press than was needed; It was tho best press In town. Sumpter Craig, of the Statesman, was called; Had been in business from 12 to 18 years; three persons could attend to editorial and nows work of TiBJouRNAL,oxcopt on oxtra occasions; $3, $2.50 und $2 a duy was good pay, Read the paper every night Whole plant was worth about $3,000. Cross-examination by Holmes; Worked on Journal three months In 1802 as locul reporter; type wus badly worn; valuo depends un reyonuos; ought to mako mora than expenses; would pay interest on $3,000; valuo of newspaper depended upon finding a buyer and they wero hard to (lnd.

Cross-examined by Helmes: tho value of services or nn editor depends on Ms character aqd experience. The court took rccsf. The most marked sensation of the day was Mr, Blnghams's admission that that Geo. W. Davis had not put up any money for stock, but that he merely held It as a trustee for Col lcctor'Of;Cu8traos .1.
