DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL BY HOFEft BROS OFFICIA" CENSUS SAXE2a, MAY, 1904, 1SU287. jTif i Ala vrlJMyjj 1S Employment of Labor. The best K"X to build op a citjr h -to give employment to labor. The merit of public improvements lief id this, faet. One public building makes a, demand ifor brick enough to lead a scare of sues oa the street can twiee a day to work in the brick. yard. The contraction, of South Commer- eiai street wonld cause abont twenty .Thousand dollars to be expended tor la "box fa this city. Ten thousand would be expended on the atreet and a much more installing H"be plant and building a street car line & the rock quarry. Laboring men and mechanics and tesunsters, whose daily employment de--pr-nd on such work going forward, aftronld mot oppose tho improvement. "What eaa such men expect in the way of employment If thy oppose the 4JTort of Mayor Waters and tho city eonncJl to give them employment T The construction of tbe seven con Crete bridge should also meet with the "hearty interest of worklograen, me cbanles. teamsters, small property own crs, those who have real estate to sell, nd all who want to see Salem go for ward. A good permanent improvement of aay kind ii a blessing to the oity and its people, and to tho very property -against which it in assessed. Property decline in value and buildings decline 3a real as a result of stagnation, and larJt of public improvements. Taint tho State House White. Tho Mate house would look like a beautiful temple if it wcro painted jpuro white. Tho uso of white paint on public "buildings is to bo encouraged, for a number of reason. They look larger, cleaner and more substantial when painted whito than In any othor color. THero is lens chance for a graft on pure whito lead and oil than in putting on nhado and tints. TJio Journal has not taken up this matter of white on public buildings as mcro notion, but for substantial rcn nop. In our climate whito Is more durable than any other color. It washes leas and bleaches lot and covers nil do feels in structure. For instance, If the government post oflleo building were pure white, it would hido tho dark colored putty spots In tho sandstone. If tho now school houso woro painted whito it would hido tub many shades of light-colored brick that some from dlffcronco in quality. Tho background of cvorgrecn makes i n white public building stand out prom Incntly and gives a clean look to the outsido of a- public institution.

Savings Department CAPITAL NATIONAL Jury Says the Grime Was Murder In the Second Degree Guilty of marder in the second de gree was tho verdict brought in by tbe jary last night, after "being out nearly 10 hoars, and Charles Monte will thus "be compelled to spend tho remainder of bis days in the state penitentiary, for having assisted in furnishing the 'guns to Tracy an MerrilL The ease went to tbe jury shortly before noon yesterday, and it was 9:45 last night when they filed back into the court room, and announced the verdict as stated above. Sixteen ballots wero taken, but the most that were in fa vor of. murder in the first degree waa eight. i While waiting for the verdict Monte 'was confined in the woman's cell in the comity jail, and paced restlessly up and down during the entire afternoon and- evening. Ilia nervousness began fwhen Mr. MeXarr began his elosinc address to the jury, and as the attor ney proceeded with his scathing de nunciation of tho criminal, tho nervous ness of the man at the bar became in. tense. When he was led into tbe court (room last night to hear the reading of tho verdict, anxiety was written on every featuro. As the verdict was read his head dropped, and he did; not look up again until after he had been waiting in tho sheriff's ofliao for a few minutes for tbe car, when he suddenly asked Sheriff Culver: "How would on Iiko to try me for a orimo I really ad ilonct" Receivlncr no answer to Ibis, ho said: "You may have a chaneo ,to do so somo day.' This was taken to be a threat that if he ever had an op portunity he would kill the convict, Chnjley Morris, to whom he had con fessed his crime, and who had betrayed his trust. They will never bo permit ted to bo together however, as long as Morris is at tho prison. Monte is also very bitter against the prison officials and tho prosecuting attornoy, and if an opportunity afforded it Is not thought he would hesitato to do them injury. As soon ns he had' received the ver dict ho was taken out to the peniten tiary, where, he will remain until Sat urday, when -ho-will bo brought in to reoclvo his sentence, and then taken bfuk to stay. As stated In yesterday's Journal, tho case of the State of Oregon ' vs. Hurry Wright, who was jointly indict ed with Monte, wns oalled yostorday afternoon ut 1 o'clock, and, as pro dieted, the entire afternoon and even ing wafc consumed in an effort to em panel a jury. It was not until this morning, ut 10 o'clock, that tho twelfth man was finally qhoson, and the presentation of tho oaso began by tho nttorneyH, Tho entire vonjro was exhausted yostorday afternoon, and tho sheriff was so t out in town threo different times to bring in n frosh sup ply of jurors. Tho jury finally ohoson were: L. W. Condlt, farmer, Aurasvlllo- L. Aiiips, Silverton, merchant; 0. A. Dun ngan, Scott Mills, farmer; Albort Ol son, South Silverton, farmer; Joseph J. Buehheit, Sit. Angel, laborer; Julius Voget, Salem, lumberman; HenryRad- cliff, Salem, real -stato ageqt; D. P. Juno, Salem, capitalist ; Hugh Jory, Salem, farmer; Alonro Gesncr, Salem, surveyor; A. C. Smith, Salem, real es tate agent; N. Hoaenbaum, soxton for Odd- Fellows cemetery. As soon as the jury had bcon - elect ed and sworn tho stato's oaso was pre sented and outlined- by a L. MeXnry, who made practically the samo points that he made in presenting the Monto case. Ho was followed by P. II. D'Ar ey, who very ably and clearly -outlined tho caso on behalf of Wright, and Jtheu tho examination of the witnesses for 'the prosecution was begun. Tho Irst ones called wero the same guard at the ponltontlary ntcstiupd In tho "Monto oaso, and their testimony was the same, Kugouo Joljns, of this city, also repeated tho aarao story of having beon with Wright and Monto In this city, nud Captain Itlloy, of Portland, told tho samo story of having sold tup iwn rifles to Wriuht and Monte. Tho case wjll not go to the jury boforo lato C . .i ..ti.i.. ...-, tin tnia aiioruoou, um iue.v v morning. While the stoto has practically tho samo cyjdcneo to prpsent in this case tha$ they hud against Monte, tho de 'fonso think that they havo a stronger ease for Wright than, they had for Monte, for, unless tho testimony of Hnrr. I Impeached iu somo manner, they will bo ablo to provo that Wright was, in Georgetown, Washington, tyorkl-iff Ms. H ron JuM 3 Han. feewerer, after se-Hng his" plctare ip.tbe Seattle paper, aad a reward of 500 offered for his arrest, en the greaad-i of having assisted Tntf and Merrill to escape.
