UEOOMED AS SPEAKER OF HOUSE BY FRIENDS.
(From Dally Oregonlan, Monday, May 20.)
Speculation as to the organization
cf the Oregon legislature already Is
current, although theactual election
-of presiding officers will not lake
place until the lawmakers assemble
In biennial session at Salem, January
13. So far as the state senate Is con
cerned, speculation as to its officers
has . been assumed definite shape at
tills early date. Three of the 15
Bean or W. W. Calkins, the two hold
over senators from Lane county, may
go after the presidency.
Early Campaign Probable.
Thirteen of the 15 holdover mem
bers of the state senate are Republi
cans. This gives the three Republi
can aspirants for president of the
scniito a Held of 13 to work upon In
advance of the election next Novem-
Ivoldover members of the upper hbuse ' ber, when the other 15 members of
are aspirants for the presidency of the upper house will be elected. It
die for Jesus' sake?' it was the worst
travesty on the church and religion
ever coming to my notice.. It is juBt
such maudlin and sacrellgious things
that most disgust sensible people.
"Richeson did not die for the sake
of Jesus Christ. He died to satlBfy
the demands of Justice. Such things
only glorify murder and attract at
tention to murderers.''
that body and at least two of them
are seeking already to find out how
badly their colleagues deslrt to award
to them the coveted honor of presid
ing officer.
The three are John A. Carson, of
Marlon; Walter A. Dimick, of Clack
amas, and Dun J, Malarkey, of Mult
nomah. Of the trio, Mr. Carson is
the most active.' He has written the
holdover senators, requesting their
support of his candidacy for the pres
idency. Plmlck Snid to Aspire.
Some time ago, when urged to be
come a candidate against W. C. Ilaw
iey for the Republican nomination for
representative in the First 'Congres
sional district, Mr. Dimick let it be
come known that If he declined to
enter the congressional race, he
would seek election as president of
the senate next winter. The Clacka
mas county man did not enter the
race against Howloy and Is reported
to be planning an aggressive cam
paign for presiding officer of the sen
ate. Although Mr. Malarkey has not
made any statement as to his candi
dacy, he is being pushed forward as
a candidate by his friends, Including
some of his associates In the las leg-t
lslutlve session. There also Is an
other rumor in circulation to the ef
fect that if the contest between Car
Eon, Dimick and Malarkey becomes
so badly complicated, either L, E.
Is the practice of senators seeking
the office of presiding officer to begin
early and assemble what strength
the can from among the holdover the
holdover members and take chances
of enlisting the support of a sufficient
number of the newly-elected mem
bers later in the campaign to land
the coveted plum.
Aside from Carson, Dimick and Ma
larkey, the holdover senators are:
Hal D. Patton, of Marlon; W. W. Cal
kins and L. E. Bean, of Lane; II. von
der Hellen, of Jackson; C. L. Haw
ley, of Polk; J. L. Hosklns, of Yam
hill; George W. Joseph, of Multno
mah: C. F. Lester, of Clatsop; C. A.
arrett, oBf Umatilla; J. N. Burgess,
of Umatilla; Claud C. McColloch, of
Baker, and Milton A. Miller, of Linn.
McColloch and Miller are the two
holdover Democrats.
In the case of the house, the situa
tion Is different. The 60 members o(
this branch are elected biennially for
one term. They 1111 not be elected
until next November. However,
friends of C. N. McArthur, one of the
12 candidates for state representative
Is on the Republican ticket from' this
county, already are grooming him for
the speakership next winter, confi
dent that he will be elected along
with his 11 associates from this coun
ty. Mr. McArthur was speaker of the
house at the 1909 session and later
nerved as private secretary to Gover
nor Benson.
Hyannls, Mass., May 21. Convinced
that Clarence Richeson went to his
death an insane man, Mrs. Llnnell,
mother of Avis Llnnell, announced
here today that she had forgiven the
former pastor for murdering her
daughter.
"I am convinced," Mrs. Llnnell
said at her home here today, "that
Richeson had been mentally Irre
sponsible for some time and died in
sane. Of course, I will accept the
picture he left for me. Why not? It
Is a picture of my own daughter."
Douglas Richeson announced here
this afternoon that he would not de
cide until tomorrow whether to claim
his brother's body. He Is awaiting
word from his father. It Is known
that Rlcheson's father mortgaged his
Virginia home to supply his son with
delicacies during his last days. If
the Richeson family does not claim
the body, Attorney Morse will either
nek the Edmands to furnish funds for
Its burial or pay the expenses himself.

PAYS THE
PENALTY
Boston, May 21. "And may God,
In His Infinite goodness, have mercy
on your soul."
Ringing In the ears of the tall, pow
erfully built, waxen faced man on
whom the stern mandate of the law
was carried out In the denth house In
Clinrlcstown prison yesterday were
tlioHe words, ultored four monthB and
two weeks ago to him, as he clung
to the railing in the crowded court
room in Boston, by Judgo Sanderson,
as the luttor Imposed the only pen
alty possible for his admission of the
luoBt cruel murder In the history of
the slttto. Rev. C. V. T. Richeson,
Iluptlbt mlnlutvr, who first betrayed
and then murdered confiding, trust
ing Avis Llnnell, belle of the little
vitiligo of HyannlB, down on Cnpe
Cod, had hniwd by his open confes
sion (o avoid tho ignominious death
In tho cruol chair. Ills lawyers had
told him that he could probably earn
a commutation of the death sentence
by clearing up a murder mystery
which, no niotter how conclusive the
vldonco, would always have left
suspicion In tho minds of thoBe op
posed to circumstantial evidence in
capital cases, And the man who had
(Ungraded his holy calling, grasping
at the straw, had pleaded guilty In
the hope that after all he might save;
his life, even though doomed to spend
the remainder of it In prison.
But the closing words of the black
robed, stern faced Judge brought the
realization of how slender his hope
was and Richeson had to be carried
out of the courthouse to the prison
van that returned him to the Charles
Street Jail, where moBt of the time
Hinco his sentence has been spent.
Jail officials admitted today that he
was greatly depressed from the mo
ment he was brought back from hear
ing his fnte pronounced. He realized
that the closing words of the court,
although a formula dating from past
centuries, meant that his only hope
was In the God whose calling he had
betrayed and even since his waking
and sleeping hours have been haunt
ed by the spectre of the broad arm
chair, with Its bright metal base and
cruel network of wires.

In another tunk which holds 250 gallons.
One Engine Provides Light.
"Besides the two big engines, there
ii another smaller which drives a
separate generator set for the light
ing of the boat and working the bilge
pumps. By manipulating the valves
on the pump water Is taken in from
the outside and delivered at pressure
in case of fire.
'She has a forward stateroom and
a forward cabin. Back of these is
the engine room, then the galley and
bathroom and then the aft cabin. The
last Ib large pnd roomy and along
the sides- are riphoiBtered seats which
can be converted into double berths.
"Still further to the stern Is the
rear stateroom, which Is larger and
more spacious than the other one. It
has two big berths. In the wall of
this room is an Ice box which will
hold 150 pounds of frozen water
which can be put in from the deck.
Color Scheme In While and Orny.
"Inside the booj; is all finished In
gloss white, while on the outside it
is gray and white. It has a large
funnel for the outlet from the engines
and the galley and carries two masts.
"Mr. Rogers, who is a banker at
Salem, will take a few friends with
him on the trip, which he figures
starting In August. Stops will be

points on the Inside course to Alaska.
R. L. White will be captain of the
ehlp while. Henry S. Folker will run

Your meals will taste good, and

pain in stomach and intestines or
other symptoms.
Headaches from the stomach are

WILLAMETTE
GOES AGAINST
FOREST GROVE
Wednesday the Willamette track
team will Journey to Forest Grove
for the return meet with Pacific Uni
versity. Since Pacific was here this
month, Willamette has had no meets.
The team has trained hard with the
exception of the last fow nights that
the track has been too muddy. The
track manager received word from
Forest Grove that the track there
was in fine condition and beyond all
probability It will not rain enough to
spoil It for Wednesday afternoon's
meet. In the proceedings on the
Methodist' field at the Mat Day exer
cises, the Pacific aggregation walked
away with the best end of things by
three points. On account of some
misunderstanding between the two
managers, the 50-yard dash was not
tun in the meet here, with the un
derstanding that It Ms to be run In
tho meet tomorrow, and the Willam
ette supporters are depending on that
for three or four extra points to win
the mix tomorrow. Pacific Universi
ty's team is strong In the distance
runs and the weights. Maylleld threw
the discus 105 feet, winning by a
margin of five or six feet and Austin
won the mile and the half, although
he worked harder for his points than
Maylleld. The Willamette team will
probably tie up several firsts In the
Bprlnts as Francis Mclnturff and
Mills showed up well In the May Day
meet The two meets with Pacific
University Is an annual event at Wil
lamette and on account of the defeat
on the eighth, the students are pray
ing that the Salem school will at
least break even by winning the com
ing meet
