Willamette to Play

If comparative scores may be taken as
a unit of measure, 8nturdny's football
game between Wilinmetto und Columbia
universities' elevens Saturday after
noon on Siveetlund field promises to be
.507! an interesting struggle.

weigh in about even when the whistle

1 Two semi-serious necldonts of the
I week will have a tendency to weaken
.Mathews' bnttle array, lu a mixed
line-up Wednesday afternoon. Arnold
(irnlnpp received n badly cut eyebrow
which required t li roe stitches to stop the
gap. Luckily his sight will not bo im
paired, nltliough the doughty guard will
be unable to scrimmage for a Tew days
at least. Results of a similar line buck
got the best of Krrcil Proctor and he id
now hobbling mound on a enne owing totfoiy to the east warn; at uueuueoourv
a dislocated knee. Likewise uuenn is
still inrnpneitnted with his bug leg
which, while promising to mend, is
ii Hii i n in a relaxed state.
.fust whnt tile Columbia university
stnrs huve in the line up is not known,
but these interscholnstic lengue stars of
I'ortlnnd always have enjoyed the repu
tation of being serious contenders for
championship honors. Home of the
brightest stnrs of Northwcxt football
have been nurtured under the helters
of that institution, so vngue predictions
as to what the score or line up will be,
tire only a matter of guess, work.
Willamette's hopes were considerably
strengthened bv the appeiirnnce of Bra
y.ier Hnuill and Charles .Muck in suits
this week. Both are players of recog
nised intercollegiute ranking and they
bid fair to make applicants for steady
berths step lively to retain their posi
tions. Little change in the pot-sound
is expected, even though a few shifts
in the interests of general efficiency
hnvo marked Mnthevvs' determination
to continue the winning process.
The probable line-up for tomorrow V
giiine of the defenders of old Wllliiiuette
will be: Center, Peterson; guards, Muck,
Flegel ninl Guerin; tackles, Taylor and
Tobiej ends, Hntelit'fe iind Uexford. In
the buckficld will be Booth, quarter;
Tenll nud (Irosvenur, halfbacks; Dimick

Barrett Confesses Killing
But Some Think Him
"Unbalanced"
Los Angeles. Cnl., Oct. 27. Whether
Benton L. Barrett, aged farmer, who
confessed slaying his wife and stepson,
is guilty oi murder or is the victim
of a hypnotist, is a mystery thut may
only be solved bv a jury trial, in ths
jipinion of District Attorney Woolwiue.
"We have sufficient evidence to go
to trial and convict Benton Barrett o.'
murder in the first degree," declared
Woolwine today. His statement was
backed up by the findings of Dr. I.ynink
B. Stookey, anatomist, who examined
ihe bones said to be those of Mrs. Bar
rett and Raymoud Wright, her 17-year-old
son- Dr. Stookey declared the bones
were "green" or those of a person who
recently died.
"There is no evidence to show that
Bentou I.. Barrett is guilty of murder.
We are iu a position to prove him in
nocent," dee In red Lewis D. Collings, at
torney for the defense. Collings' state
ment was supported by Captain H. R.
Ziuinier, an expert investigator, who de
clared the bones found in an outhouse
on the Barrett farm were those of a per
son who had been dead forji long time.
Collins declared he had information of
skeleton having been stolen receutly.

This process was accomplished .only by

"J. W. Dawson of Charleston, coal
operator, in a letter to State Chairman
Joseph H. (iaines of the republican
state committee, asked, that his name
as a Hughes elector at large be with
drawn from the republican ticket.
"I have been a great admirer of
Judge Hughes since the insurance in
vestigation in New York vears pnst.
says Mr. Dawson in his letter. 1' was
for him originally when Mr. Taft was
nominated ami elected president, and
at that time hoped to some dav see
Judge Hughes president of this coun
try. But 1 was at Chicago during the
republican convention in June; I have
been a student of public questions
since that time; I have read - Mr.
Hughes, public addresses with a great
deal of anxiety: 1 do not find m them
any good reason why we should change
administrations at Washington at this
critical time."
A. K. Matbesou, conservative repuhli
WMi, Tatt elector in 1912, and law part
ner of ex-Senator John M. Whitehead,
lu'.e candidate for the republican nom
ination tor United States senator in
Wisconsin, has announced thnt, from
motives of patriotism, he will support
President Wilson for re election, while
at the same time adhering to the re
publican state ticket in Wisconsin.
"There are several grounds for my
supKrt of Mr. Wilson. One is what
seems to be a real iuterest in the socinl
welfare of men and women; his human
itarian impulses and purposes. He is
trying to do something for the man who
is struggling whether' the man is in
America or Mexico. , "
"I think Wilson has handled foreign
affairs with large vision and looking
to the future as well as to the pres
ent. I commend Wilson for acting with
fine poise and balance in very trying
times.
"I put my Americanism above my
partisanship, and in these critical times
I deem it my patriotic duty to stand
by President Wilson."

"It might be of interest to you to

"Mr. Wilson has faced the most try

coln, Through his leadership the in
adequate currency nienstiiji! known as
the aldrich law was amended by n
democratic congress to. prevent what
would have been the greatest panic this
country has ever known. In my judg
ment, the federal reserve act is one of
the greatest and inost beneficial pieces
of legislation ever placed upon the
statutes. It has served to advance the
business of this country and has done
more to bring property to the whole
population than all other thimrs com
bined."
