THE MOBNTNG OEEGONIANT MOST) AY, jtfARCH 21, 190 TO TALK ON. MINING Mass-Meeting of Citizens Is Called for Tonight. ARRANGING FOR CONGRESS Executive Committee of American Mining Congress Will Prepare . Programme and Address Business Men. The mass-meeting- to be held at the Commercial Club this evening in honor of the officers of the American Mining Congress promises to be one of the most enthusiastic and spontaneous gatherings of Portland's citizens held In years. Al though it has been arranged on short notice, assurances are coming in from every direction which indicate that the meeting will be thoroughly representa tive. Seven hundred postal card invita tions have been sent out, and It is probable that the capacity of the club rooms will be taxed. Governor George EL Chamberlain will preside, and addresses will be delivered by Mayor Williams, President J. H. Richards, of Boise; Vice-President Thomas Ewlnjr, of California, and "Secre tary Irwin Mahon, of the Congress. The committee in charge, which consists of A. I. Morris. P. W. Custer, O. M. Crouch, M. Mosessohn and W. E. Coman, has been very active in the brief time allowed them for arranging details. The meeting Is of the utmost importance to Portland and the state, and it is imperative that everyone interested in the upbuilding of the community realize this. The Mining Congress Is, in all probabil ity, the greatest National organization which will ever visit this section. It represents hundreds of millions of capi tal and the best brains of the country. Men of international reputation as ora tors and financiers. Cabinet Ministers, members of the National Legislature and industrial experts will lead the discus sions. The railroads have offered allur ing rates and thousands of delegates and visitors will be drawn here for the ses sion. It will serve to magnificently ad vertise the city, state and the Lewis and Clark Fair. The sessions will occupy a week at a time when Portland is at her best and to make it the red-letter week of her history, the citizens should rise to the occasion and be satisfied with nothing short of a triumph. The various commercial bodies have taken the inlative In calling tonight's meeting, which will be the opening of a five months' cam paign to make good the challenge that Oregon, and Portland in particular, are the best places on earth. Colonel Ewing stated the case last evening when he said: 'This coming meeting is the most critical one in the history of the Congress. It will be a turning ' point and the most Important session, by long odds, which we have ever held. Matters of the highest Im portance will be considered and acted upon. Every responsible mining man In the country will want to come, and an army of them will be here, along with representatives of the Government, of transportation companies and financial concerns. It will do more to bring this city and state Into prominence than a half million dollars spent in advertising. 1 know Oregon thoroughly. Her mineral resources have only been scratched. This -state has more undeveloped mineral de posits than any similar area In the civil ized world. You want capital to know the facts. Oregon's resources, particularly her mines, will be featured by the Con gress. If you people take hold properly, millions of dollars can be brought into the state for development purposes, which in turn will yield multiplied millions In products. Portland, as the center .and distributing point, will derive untold bene fits from the awakening which will follow our sessions. Within 30 days I have been told' by responsible men In the Black Hills IMstrict that between four and five millions of dollars have been in vested in South Dakota as the direct re sult of our meeting at Deadwood last year. These figures can be doubled or trebled here, if you people will take advantage of the opportunity and jgo In to win. One day of our session will be devoted to the 1903 Fair, and It will be advertised as it could not possibly be in. any other way. At Deadwood last year I did everything in my power to bring this meeting here. My heart Is set upon making it the greatest ever held and I believe your people are public-spirited enough to justify my faith in them." A conference of the executive commit tee of the Congress will be held this afternoon at the Portland Hotel. The programme of the National session will be outlined and a third vice-president will be elected to succeed the late Colo nel John T. Grayson. J. Frank Watson, who Is filling the place by appointment, will be formally elected. Headquarters for Secretary Mahon will be decided upon and matters of general policy will be discussed. Judge Richards and Colonel Ewing will leave tomorrow for their homes, but will visit the city frequently between this time and the convention. how mormonism: grows. Judge Richards Explains Expansion of the Church in Idaho. "The Mormon Church in Idaho is grow ing," said Judge J. H. Richards, of Boise, who . stands at the head of the bar of that state, will in all probability belts next Governor, and Is here in the ca-' pacity of president of the American Min ing Congress, at the Portland last even ing. "There is no thin tr remarkable In rh ' fact; ?and it is not especially startling. The jiormuos cusi uuuul une-inira OI tne votes at our elections, and they are a prominent factor in our development. While some of them have moved over from Utah, by far the greater number are proselytes from other states and from Eu rope. They are generally good citizens, and I see no reason to regard them as a menace. The reason for the Increase in membership Is eartly found when one understands Ihe Interest the church takes in the material welfare of its members. "For instance, its missionaries in Swe den find a young man who has recently married and Is anxious to get on in the world. He is young, strong and industri ous, but poor. They offer him a farm in Idaho and every opportunity to. improve hia fortunes. They bring him over, put him on SO acres of good land, -the U thing house supplies him with a team, wagon and Implements, the neighbors help him to build a log house and the bishop ad vises him in matters of business. He is bound to succeed and he naturally looks upon the church as his best friend. There are no very poor in our Mormon set-' tlements. Everybody works and the church has a paternal care that those who may be unfortunate are helped and protected. "I do not believe that polygamy Is gen erally practiced among them and in the rare instances where it does exist the plural marriages were entered into years ago. long before the manifesto. I have visited in their homes and had many deal ings , with them, and have found them good people. As I say, they cast a third of our vote and could hold the balance of power If they voted as a unit; they do not do so. While to a certain ex tent the church official's advise their people" In political matters, they do not require them to act together and do not use undue influence over them. I do not regard them as corrupt. The only danger, as I see It is in legislative caucuses where they usually act together for the best in fests of the church. "The fight which Senator Dubois is mak ing on the church is the fight of his life. He is making his campaign for re-election three years hence and -will keep It up until that time. He is a consummate politician," and has enlisted many powerful Influ ences in his cause. If there Is corruption In the Mormon Church in Utah and else where, as hemalntains, he will turn It up side down be'fore he quits. If he can suc ceed in splitting both the political parties in Idaho on the religious question he will be returned to the Senate, but, if he falls, he will be down and out forever. He knows this and makes no secret of the fact that his political existence depends on the present fight. "The confirmation of Woolly as Govern ment Assayer in our state is generally satisfactory to the people. The opposi tion to him was entirely personal, and was not nearly so strong as outsiders have been led to believe. The Mormon ques tion did not enter into the case to any considerable extent." MAP OF RAILROADS. Senate. Committee Reports Bill "to Have Government Prepare It. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, March 20. It Is quite proba ble that Congress will pass the bill recently Introduced by Senator Blklns, of West "Virginia, authorizing the director of the geological survey to issue a railroad map of the United States. It was the purpose of Senator Elklns in Introducing this bill to have an official map showing all lines of railroad In the United States. Nothing of this sort has ever been pub lished before by the Government, and shipping Interests have been obliged to rely upon maps prepared by the rail roads themselves. The Inaccuracy of the average railroad map Is everywhere recognized. In order to show all of the railroads In the United States and to designate each line by Its proper name It will be necessary to make a map on a scale of 16 miles an Inch, which would make a wall map 15 feet long and 10 feet high. To prepare plates to put out the first edition of the rail road map will cost $20,000. The Senate committee on Interstate commerce approves of the Blklns bill and has reported it with a recommendation that it shall pass. In addition to show ing the railroad lines of the United States, this map will, also show connecting lines in Canada and in Mexico. The map will be printed under contract with private firms. WILL MODIFY GAME LAW. Wilson Says New Alaska Legislation Will Then Be Unnecessary. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, March 20. In a letter to Senator Ankeny, Secretary Wilson, of the Agri cultural Department, expresses the opin ion that no further legislation looking to the protection of game in Alaska is nec essary at this time. The Secretary be lieves that ample protection can be af forded under the present law. If the exist ing regulations are modified. It Is his purpose to extend the open season on bears to cover practically the whole year, to extend the open season on deer by at least two months, and to also ex tend the open season on water fowl. On the other hand, It is proposed to shorten the season for the killing of walrus and to further restrict the Issuance of per mits for the shipment of trophies from the Kenat peninsula. With this regula tion In force, the Secretary believes there will be no further complaint on account of the game laws In Alaska. POUND WITH HEAD CUT. . Unknown Man Discovered in Door way on Sixth Street. A man who Is supposed to have met with foul play was found In an uncon scious condition in the doorway of Nau's drugstore, in the Portland Hotel, at 2 o'clock this morning. When he regained consciousness he was unable to give his name. A bundle of music found near him leads to the belief that he is a musician in some variety theater. Officers Mlllis and Isaacs brought the nrnn to the police station and Assistant City Physician Slocum was summoned. Numerous cuts on the stranger's head were sewed, it being necessary to take six stitches in one of the cuts. The Associated Press In Asia. Review of Reviews. The Associated Press, the chief organ ization for news-gathering in America, haTnlne trained war correspondents at strategic points In the East when fighting began, and immediately dispatched three more. Melville Stone, general manager of the Associated Press, obtained an au dience with the Czar, and was promised that in the official dispatches by way of the Trans-Siberian telegraph line should be put at the service of the American company as quickly and extensively as the situation would allow, and Howard Thompson, a veteran war correspondent, was hurried to St. Petersburg to take charge. Consequently, New York has had the benefit of a number of Viceroy Alex leff's official reports only - a few hours after they were received In St. Petersburg. Similarly. Mr. Egan, the Associated Press staff correspondent In Toklo, is persona grata - with the Japanese government. When the Mikado had Issued his view of the causes leading up to the war, Mr. Egan spent 52000 In cable tolls to get this document before New Yorkers' eyes a few hours before It would be given out through, the Japanese Embassy In Wash ington, and succeeded in easily beating the official channels. White Men and Japanese at War. William, Armstrong and Charles Barr were arrested on a charge of assault and battery yesterday afternoon. The com plainant, Gonji Nil. a Japanese, has two black eyes as evidence of the assault. The trouble occurred In a North End house on Friday night and the Japanese com menced to make It too hot for Armstrong and his companion, who were forced to run without their hats. Armstrong and Barr reiurned for the hats yesterday aft ernoon and were arrested by Officers Batty and Adams. Barr promptly fur nished $20 ball and says he was not pres ent at the time of the trouble and will prove an - alibi In court this morning. They Confess More Burglaries. William Dean and Harry Richmond, the burglars who were captured by Detectives Day. Welner and Vaughn on Saturday night, have admitted several other bur glaries recently committed, among them being those at the residence of M. F. Jones, 350 Tillamook; George W. Hoyt's residence at 145 North Sixteenth street, and M. Benecke, 541 Grand avenue. Dean says he sold two solid gold watches and a pair of opera glasses for $8 to a farmer whom he met on the street. Wages Temporarily Reduced. MUNCIE. Ind.. March .20. The Midland mill, the local plant of the American Sheet Steel Company, which has been closed since August last, will probably resume within two weeks. The 600 idle employes met tonight and accepted 'tem porarily the reduction of 20 per cent which the steel company has demanded of its employes. Notice Was Unauthorized. PORTLAND, March" 20.

Southern Democrats were never enthusi astic over Bryan, nor, did they originate the free silver demand, though they felt the need of more currency and It was generally believed among them that free coinage would supply the needed circula tion. The South therefore gives up the Nebraska man without much of a pang, and a canvass of the Georgia State Com-i mlttee shows that 15 of the members are for "a sound, conservative candidate," six for Cleveland, five for Gorman, four for Parker, three for Hearst and three for anybody but Hearst. Georgia Democrats are xertainly "sane and dangerous." Advance In Rubber Footwear. NEW YORK, March 20.
