Constitution of Washington Makes
Provision for Division of State,
but Legislative Action Has
Been Prevented.
OLTMPIA. Wash., Oct. 1. (Special.)
Since the Republican state convention
again declared for Congressional district.
ing of the state, the subject has been
the chief one for discussion among poi
iticlans. Before the convention no one
was giving it more than a passing
thought. It seemed to be taken for
granted that there would be no further
agitation on the subject until after the
next National census, which it is hoped
will give the state an additional member
of Coneress.
Since the demand for Congressional dis.
trlcting has been made In the party plat
form, however. Governor Mead is ex
pected to give it proper attention in his
message to tne legislature in jrauau.
and will no doubt urge it in strong terms.
A stronger reason for his urging it
upon the Legislature than the dictum of
the party platform is round in tne man
datory provision of section 15 of article
27 of the state constitution, which de
clares: 1
"Section 13. Representation In Con
gress. One Representative in the Con
gress of the United States shall be elect,
ed from the state at large at the first
election provided for in this constitution,
and thereafter at such times and places
and In such manner as may be prescribed
by law. 'When a new apportionment shall
be made by Congress the Legislature
' shall divide the state into Congressional
districts. In accordance with such appor
tionment." Two Apportionments Made.
Since the adoptin of the constitution
two apportionments have been made by
Congress, but the Legislature has never
complied with the constitutional com
mand to district the state. At the last
session, following a pledge in the party
platform, the bill to district the state
failed to pass, only because It was not
allowed to come to a vote in the House.
The Senate committee having the bill
in charge held it up till a couple of
days before the end of the session, and
then reported it out without any-recommendation,
favorable or otherwise.
But the general sentiment in favor of
it was so strong that It was taken up
out of its regular order and quickly
passed.
The House committee, like that of the
Senate, was controlled by the friends of
the Congressmen, who oppose districting,
and by a majority vote the House com
mittee decided to report the bill with
the recommendation that it be indefinitely
postponed. By a close vote the report
was adopted, on the last day but one
of tha session.
With either one of the committees In
favor of the bill It would have been put
through the Legislature at the last ses
sion. General Plan of Districting.
The general plan of districting is
to put King County with the North
west, Tierce County with the South
west, making the third district of East
ern Washington. This would throw
the control of each district out of the
hands of the counties from which the
present members of Congress hail.
The proposal to district the state Is
strongly opposed by the three present
Congressmen. When their friends suc
ceeded In preventing the enactment of
a law on the subject at the last session.
It was believed there would be little or
no further agitation on the subject
until after the next apportionment shall
have been made by Congress, follow
ing the 1910 census.
The only county convention of im
portance to declare in favor of district
ing the state this year was that of
Spokane. One after another of the
counties appeared to accept the present
status, and it was thought the subject
would be dropped this year. But since
the state convention has once more
pledged the party to district the state,
the question is almost the absorbing
topic in political circles.
If the next Legislature holds the
same views on -this subject that past
ones have, the state is likely to be dis
tricted unless the bill can be helo back
in the committees, as it was last time.
Opposition by Congressmen.
The three Congressmen and their
friends, in opposing the move to dis
trict the state, argue that under the
present system all the people of the
state have three members of Congress,
whereas if each one represened only a
district, then each citizen and commu
nity would have only one member of
Congress that could be called on for
assistance. It is also urged that the
state would undoubtedly have four
members of Congress after the next ap
portionment, and that the state can
then be divided without danger to the
Republican party.
On the other hand, the mandatory
provisions of the constitution are point
ed to, and it is held that a Democratic
Congress could, and doubtless would,
refuse to seat the members from Wash
ington State If elected at large instead
of from districts. Attention is also
called to the fact that the next appor
tionment, following the census of 1910,
would not be available for the Legis
lature prior to the session of 1903.
The question will, from present ap
pearances, be an Interesting one in the
next Legislature.

THESE SCOTS NOT CANNY
ROBBED OF $10,000 BY BOGUS
POLICEMEN IN RAID.
Inveigled Into Card Game by Salt
Lake Strangers, They Pay
Dearly for Experience.
SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 1. By means
of a bogus police raid o na sure-thing
poker game, Alexander and William Mc-
Whirter, two recent arrivals from Scot
land, claim to have been robbed of $10,000
in this city on September 18.
On the way to Los Angeles the brothers
stopped here and were inveigled into a
card game by affable strangers. A raid
was made by two pretended policemen,
one of whom took, it is alleged, JS.000 of
the $10,000 McWhlrter had when he sat
in the game. The other "officer" at
tempted to escape from the McWhirters,
but they forced him to take them to the
police station. The stranger conferred
with the Chief of Police, George Sheets,
and came back with J1.O00, which was re
stored to the Scots. The latter proceeded
to Los Angeles, where they secured coun
sel and returned to Salt Lake yesterday
to prosecute a search for their money.
Chief Sneets says that the man who
brought the McWhirters to the station
was not an officer and that he did not
look into the case at the time because he
thought that the trouble jvas merely a
difference over some business transaction.

VANCOUVER, Wash., Oct. 1. (Spe
cial.) The late Carrie Adeline Barlow

September 12, 1906, was the youngest
daughter of George Barlow, deceased,

Clark County, Washington, in 1802,
where she had since resided. She was
a graduate of Baker City Academy of
the class of 1873. She was married at

fought, a substitute being offered, but it
was carried. Thereupon the delegates
from the Idaho Falls precincts walked
out and the ticket was named by those
remaining. '
It is now given out . by the Gentile
Democrats that they will nominate an
American party ticket and fight the Mor
mons to the death. This action followed
closely upon a rather sensational conven
tion of the Republicans in Fremont
County. In that convention nearly all the
nominees were Mormons, according to
reports reaching Boise.
The Democrats had not intended to put
up a ticket, but it is said they now pro
pose to do so, and it is intimated that an
American arty movement will follow in
that county.
HOUNDS LOSE THE TRAIL
Leiflston Friends Believed to Have
Aided Escape of Mitchell.
LEWISTON, Idaho, Oct. 1. Harry
Draper, with his bloodhounds, arrived this
morning and started immediately in
search of Frank Mitchell, who broke jail
here last night. When given the scent
the dogs traced Mitchell to the barn of
William Jones, three miles east of town.
where a horse was taken and all trace
of Mitchell lost. Draper and his hounds
have returned to town to await further
developments. It is believed, however,
that the stealing of Jones' horse is only
a blind, and that Mitchell has escaped in
another direction, assisted by friends.
At 11 tonight nothing new has developed
in the hunt for Mitchell. Harry Draper
and his dogs returned to the Lapwai coun
try this afternoon but no trace of the
fugitive has been found. The jail break
has excited much comment and charges
are openly made that the affair was
planned and pulled o""-by parties in this
city. It is even asserted that some very
prominent people in the city are connected
with the affair.
Mclntyre. who returned to the Jail after
accompanying Mitchell two miles east of
the city, assisted today in the hunt. He
makes the statement that Mitchell had
been counting on the jail delivery for the
past fourdays.
PETITIONS SPIRITED AWAY.
Castle Rock Nearly Shut Out of
County Seat Contest.
CASTLE ROCK, Wash., Oct. 1. (Spe
cial.) Yesterday morning our town was
thrown almost into a panic by the dis
covery that a number of petitions for
Castle Rock for county, seat had been
stolen. They were kept In a desk 4n a
business house here, and some one, pre
sumably in the employ of Kelso, had
taken them. After a little shrewd work
on the part of leading citizens the whole
scheme was unearthed and the guilty par
ties discovered, though the papers had al
ready been delivered at Kelso, and were
not recovered.
Enough names were left on other peti
tions to allow Castle Rock to enter the
race and be placed on the ticket, and
the remaining petitions were taken to
Kalama last night to be placed on file
with the County Clerk today.
- Increase in Baker's Wealth.
BAKER CITY, Or., Oct. 1. (Special.)
Baker County's Assessor today completed

great Increase in wealth over last year,
even considering the fact that the as
sessment for the present year is made on
a 50 per cent basis. The- total of the
figures, according to the Assessor, is
$8,632,590.
The change in the manner of assess

has been the subject of much protest,
and the berth of the County Commission

COLFAX. Wash., Oct. 1. Professor Eu
gene Persons, teacher o the eighth grade
subjects and athletic coach in the Colfax
schools,- resigned his position Saturday
after assaulting Claud Larkin, one of the
High School students. Persons committed
the same offense last year, when he
severely beat the son of Chief of Police
Mackay, but the matter was dropped at
that time without prosecution because
of the provocation tne boy gave him.
This time, however, he will probably be
held to answer to the charge of assault
and battery when Prosecuting Attorney
Kipp returns.
Professor Persons Is rated a No. 1
teacher, and it was solely his efforts that
made the Colfax High School the cham
pion in numerous athletic contests last
year.

Hungarians Have but Few English
Words but One of These
Is "Beer."
BAKER CITY. Or., Oct. 1. (Special.)
Robbed of their all, amounting to $1000
in a roll of bills they displayed freely,
two Hungarians who reached Baker City
Saturday night paid the penalty of their
foolishness. The men were fresh from
the old country. They came to Baker,
having secured positions through friends
in the employ of the Oregon Lumber
Company, the Mormon enterprise. Neither
could speak more than a few words of
English; one of those words was "beer."
They drank a few glasses of beer and
started for the home ;of their relatives,
where they had previously taken several
drinks.
When ' half-way home they discovered
their loss, and, sitting down on the side
walk, the two men, both giants, began to
cry like babies. They were unable to ex
plain their troubles, and were arrested
for disturbing the peace. Later in the
day their friends, becoming anxious,
looked them up and found them in jail.
They were released when, in broken Eng
lish,, broken again by sobs, the inter
preter told thoir story. There Is no clew
to where the money went.

Two Trains Are Required to Carry
the Complement of Troops .
From Vancouver Barracks
to Newport Xews.
VANCOUVER. Wash., Oct. 1. (Spe
cial.) Pursuant to orders received at
the Vancouver Barracks last night, the
Seventeenth and Eighteenth mountain
batteries left Vancouver at 4:30 P. M.
today on the way to Newport News, Va.,
where they will be mobilized and be
rushed to Cuba with the first Install
ment of troops for that place. All last
night and today the City of Vancouver
was the scene of activity as the bat
terymen packed their goods post-haste
on the some 12 -cars switched here for
their transportation.
Most of the soldiers seemed eager to
go, as they had tired of the monotony
of barracks life. Some "cold-footers,"
however, lost their nerve, as It Is re
ported tonight at least 25 deserted dur
ing last night and today. "This "going
over the hill." as it is termed, is a
common occurrence among a certain
class of "slum't soldiers, who only care
to be soldiers during the easy post life,
but are too cowardly to go to the front
in time of action.
The batteries were all newly
equipped, and as they marched from
the barracks to the foot of Eighth
street, the point where they embarked
on the Northern Pacific, a goodly crowd
of Vancouverites witnessed their de
pasture.
The troops were commanded by Major
Ira A. Haynes, who was recently sent
to this post to take this command. He
also was recently promoted to this
rank, as his commission is dated today.
The Seventeenth was commanded by
Captain E. Lee Irwin and the Eight
eenth by Captain Edmund A. Blake.
The troops were marched to the depot,
where the special train was switched
and in waiting, and at once begun to
load their mules and equipment. This
was accomplished in an amazingly
short time, and the train pulled out
sharp at 4:30 o clock.
Though neither battery is manned to
its full strength, it has been arranged
to recruit it to war strength upon its
arrival at the point of mobilization,
prior to departure for Cuba. Two spe
cial trains were required to carry men
and equipment.
Orders have been received at this
headquarters instructing that all off!
cers belonging to organizations that
are ordered to Cuba Join their respec
tive commands at Newport News as
soon as possible. In accordance there
with orders have been sent the differ
ent officers and it is expected in most
cases they will arrive at the scene of
mobilization as soon as the troops.
