THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, MONDAY, NOVE3IBER 5, 1906. 11 DEAL FOR SENATE CHIEF Lawmakers for Marion, Linn and Benton Meet to Make Pact. ADJOURN TO CONFER AGAIN IIodson-Hainea Contest Brings To gcther Kay, Miller, Johnson and J. X. Smith, and Later Hing liani and Loughary. SALEM. Or., Nov. 4 (Special.) A movpment was started here yesterday which may result In the formation of a block of votes in the State Senate that will hold the balance of power in the organization right and may deter mine the contest for the Presidency before the Legislature meets. Senator A. J. Johnson, of Benton, and Senator Sillier, of Linn, met with Senators Kay aiid Smith, of this county, and the four held a long conference last night. While no attempt was made to ef fect an agreement, the four exchanged assurances that they are entirely un pledired, as to their votes on the Presi dency, and there is an understanding that they will not pledge until they meet asaln. It was intenJed that Sen ator Laufrhary, of Polk, should be here, but he did not come. Senator Blng Iiam, of Lane, will be invited to at tend the next conference, which will be held not later than December 1. The plan is to havo the valley Sena tors work together during the session upon legislation in which the valley counties have a common Interest. Since the appointment of committees has much to do with legislation and the president of the Senate appoints the committees, the valley Senators feel that they have a common Interest In the organization contest. Senator Haines, one of the candidates for president, was hero yesterday, but left for Portland before the conference was held. FIGHT CENTERS IN MARION Efforts of Rivals to Win J. X. Smltb Cause of Valley Conference. Should Smlth and Johnson enter the Haines ramp, there is reason to believe they would end the fight between Haines of Washington and llodson of Multno mah for the presidency, by putting the Washington man to the front. But the Hodson supporters appear confident that Haines cannot get them. The Haines boomers say that they have lined up enough opposition to defeat llodson, and that though all the opposi tion Is not in their camp, the addition to their forces of Johnson and Smith will glvo Haines the needed 12 votes to end the contest. But so far the asser tion of the llodson adherents that Smith and Johnson are beyond the reach of Haines has been verified. The conference at Salem may have been a counterstroke of the Hodson forces, to offset the Haines pressure exerted on Smith of Marion by Kay and Miller, of the same county, who. are supporting Haines. So long as Kay, Miller and Smith profess to be trying to act to gether, and Kay and Miller are with Haines, Smith is a minority; hence the effort to broaden the "harmony area by Including Johnson of Benton and Loughary of Polk. Johnson, Loughary and Smith are claimed by the Hodson forces, so that this union would perhaps put Kay and Miller In the minority. It is understood that the Haines men in turn will broaden the harmony area still further by calling in Bingham of Lane, .one of their Sen ators. This would make the line-up In the Valley group, three and three, and might be too unwieldy to act together. In the antl-Hodson camp appear to be 13 Senators, If there can be Included Whealdon of Wasco, Bowerman of Gil liam, McDonald of Union and Laycock of Grant, all of whom were arrayed against the Hodson element In the last Legislature. But the Hodson workers assert that Haynes cannot rely upon all of those four to oppose Hodson. The others of the 13 are: Wright of Yamhill, Scholfleld of Clatsop, Bingham of Lane, Nottingham and Malarkey of Multno mah. Cole of Umatilla, Kay of Marion, Miller of Marion and Linn, and Haines himself. The eleven other Senators are Hodson, Slchei; Beach, Bailey and Mays of Mult nomah, and Booth of Lane, who are the mainstay of the Hodson strength; Ixmphary of Polk, Hart of Malheur; Coke of Coos, Johnson ' of Benton and Smith of Marlon, the last named of whom the Hodson men feel confident of winning, while the Haines men count them doubtful. Should Haines and Hodson fight each other to a stand-still, several other can didates would be in the running, chief of them Malarkey of Multnomah. It has been said that others who have lightning rods ready are Beach of Multnomah and Whealdon of Wasco. And It, has been reported that willing dark horses for the race are Smith of Marlon, Johnson of Benton and Coke of Coos. The contest for Speaker is subordinate to that for President, and little or nothing seems doing for that place. Representative Vawter, of Jackson, one of the four avowed candidates, did some canvassing last week In the Willamette "Valley and In EaBtern Oregon, and so did Representative Davey, the Marion candidate, but neither seemed to make much progress, owing to the unwilling ness of members to pledge at this time, until It shall be settled whether a Mult nomah man Is to be President of the" Senate. The two other candidates are Chapln of Multnomah and Jones of Polk. USE OF SWORD AND PISTOL Sentimental Disquisition, Showing the Old-Time Southern View. Charleston (S. C.) News and Courier. The recent death in Massachusetts of Daniel B. Wesson, the manufacturer of revolvers, leaving a fortune of $33,DJO, 000. has caused a deal of comment on the revolver, Its uses and abuses. That a man could have amassed so much money In the manufacture of this weapon gives pause to those who are Interested in human progress. No'one censures the dead "captain of industry" that he engaged In supply ing the demand for pistols; he and his ussociates have been responsible for no crime done with the implements they made and ' sold, but his monstrous wealth illustrates with uncanny empha sis the popularity of a thing put to evil employment a thousand times to one time that It does worthy service. Tne pistol is essentially the weapon of personal. Individual malice. No one uses it for the purposes of sport. In war Its use is so slight that the absence of it would scarcely affect the casualty TRYING lists. Its form. Its "handiness," and, more than all. the ease with which it adapts itself to the treachery and cow ardice of most of those who bear it, account for the disgraceful vogue that it has among men. It is carried with good excuse by one only when it is car ried without excuse by some other per son in whose heart felony is ferment ing, and generally the excuse of the first is rather imaginary than real. Formerly the' baneful institution of dueling regulated to a degree the evil of the pistol. When men shot at dach other by punctilious rules, the pistol served to eliminate differences in physical power, and In those cases it placed combatants upon the same plane at least it removed the factors of brawn, muscle and sheer weight. Since dueling has been outlawed, the pistol no longer materially aids fair play when men are bent on murder, for cunning- and quickness in "getting; the drop" are chiefly decisive of the issue and the treacherous fighter has every advantage. The pistol is not even ornamental. In the old days, when every gentleman carried his sword by his side, it was a graceful thing and it bred grace. Fenc ing was a necessary art, and fencing developed muscle, brought alertness to mind and eye and hand, and, we fancy, the race of gentlemen was refined and improved by reason of it. We are in the habit of laughing at the "French duel," but, after all, may It not be a useful institution? True, it seldom re sults in cruel murder, men's bodies are not deeply mangled or perforated as a rule, but, for all that. It is quite pos- OLDEST SWISS RESIDENT 1 'pernor "-sw . v?t-V, - -J MRS. ANNA ELIZABETH VON ESCHEN. Members of the Portland Swiss Society yesterday celebrated the 85th birthday" of Mrs. Anna Elizabeth Von Eschen, who Is the oldest Swiss resident of the Paclno Northwest. She was serenaded by the Gesang- Vereln. which includes an excellent male quartet and a number of yodlers. Mrs. Von Ksohen, nee Blumer, was born November 4. 1821, in Graubunder Chur, Switzerland. Bhe was married in 188 to Btephan Von Efechen, who died in 1870. She first came to America in 1870, re turning to the old country the next year, and coming- back to the United States In 1SS3. Bhe moved to Oregon In 1884. Mrs. Von Eschen has one son, .Stephan, who Uvea with his mother at their home, 809 Sheridan street. slble that a high measure of genuine courage is required to bear one with gallantry through a hard-fought con test with small swords, though the peril of death be remote. Very likely, if the combatants were not usually cool, brave and trained men, the fatali ties would be more numerous. At any rate, we are sure that the gentlemen of France are none the worse for their knowledge of handling swords, and the spectacle they present in fighting with them Is not so disgusting as when our ruffians shoot, and shoot to kill. In the dives and in the streets or pommel each other with their bare fists. What we have said is perhaps to n6 practical purpose. The pistol is here to stay, we suppose, and the factory that the late, Mr. Wesson built to splendid proportions, and in which he perfected the weapon that lurks In secret places, and which is so facile in producing murders and self-murders Included, will continue through the years to turn its wheels and provide wages to some thousands of honest worklngmen. Nevertheless, the reflection cannot be put away that its invention supplanted a weapon less barbaric, and more hon orable and civilizing, and that its re tention marks the difficulty with which men get away from their savage in stincts. LAD KILLS HIS FRIEND DID XOT KNOW XEW RIFLE WAS LOADED. Roy Seymour Fatally Shot by Albert Bancroft, of Falls City, While Comparing Guns. FALLS CITY, Or., Nov. 4. (Special.) Roy Seymour, aged 16, was killed here Thursday evening by an accidental shot from a 25-callbre rifle in the hands of Albert Bancroft, aged 19. Young Bancroft was showing his new rifle to the Seymour boy in the kitchen of the latter's home. Seymour produced his gun for Inspection. They then ex changed guns. - Seymour slipped a cartridge into Bancroft's gun with out his knowledge. The guns were returned to their respective owners, when the Seymour boy In fun, snapped his rifle In the face of the Bancroft boy. The Bancroft boy follow ing his example, snapped his gun In Seymour's face. The gun was dis charged, the bullet entering Just' beneath Seymour's right eye. He expired in a few minutes. There Is talk of arresting the Bancroft boy as a lesson to others carelessly hand ling firearms. Columblas Run tp Big Score. THE DALLES. Or., Nov. 4. (SpeclaU One more victory was added to the list of The Dalles Columblas today, when they defeated the South Portland eleven by a score of 30 to 0. The Dalles team, which slightly outweighed the vis itors, had little difficulty In running up the score, the second half not being played out. A light rain fell during the game on a gridiron In perfect condition. LABOR LEADERS OUTLINE PLANS New Political Party Will . Participate in All Campaigns. EXPANDS GOMPERS' IDEA Influence Xot to Be Limited to State and Congressional Elections. Will Stand by FViends and Punish Enemies. While the plans for the formation of a labor party, suggested by the National CELEBRATES 85th BIRTHDAY campaign committee of the American Federation of Labor, do not at this time include or contemplate anything further than participation In Congressional and State Legislative campaigns, the wing of the party now being formed In Portland in all likelihood will extend the scope out lined and enter actively into city and county politics as well. Pending tlje convention of delegates from the various local unions, to be held on November 30, union leaders are not in a position to say Just what will be done, but there are those who have no hesi tancy in saying th'at in the future the labor party of Portland will take an ex ceedingly active part in politics as an or ganized body, and the same view will apply to the state as soon as the state organization is eft eoted at the convention to be held In January. The keynote of the campaigns to be waged by the new labor party is found in a recent Issue of the Federatlonlst, being: "We will stand by our friends and administer a stinging rebuke to men or parties who are either indifferent, neg ligent or hostile, and, wherever oppor tunity affords, secure the election of in telligent, honest, earnest trade-unionists, with clear, unblemished, paid-up union cards in their possession." This principle will govern the actions of the Union party. After looking over the field of candidates proposed by other parties the unionists will "substitute can didates of their own for those who are found unsatisfactory. It is also virtually assured that the labor party will first enter the local political field in the mu nicipal elections of next year. Limited Scope for Present. For the present and for some time to come, the Labor party will be unable to take any part in the direct primaries aa a body, owing to the limitation that no party can appear unless having shown a strength of 25 per cent of the vote cast In the preceding Congressional election. The Labor party will therefore confine Its political endeavors either to the support of old party men favorable to- organized labor or to placing in the field candidates of their own choice by petition. In speaking of the causes which led to the organization of this new party and what It hopes to accomplish, P. McDon ald, secretary of the Oregon State Fed eration of Labor, said: "While there are a great many good reasons for the entry of labor Into the political field as a separate and distinct party, the main one Is to be found in the fact that the present parties I speak principally of the Republicans and Dem ocrats, are controlled by the money in terests of the country. So long as a party or parties are subservient to the power of money they must of necessity legis late to the disadvantage of the working classes that is, their legislation will al ways be detrimental to organized labor and in favor of capital. "This has been Been In all legislation in the United Statesi Many labor meas ures, measures for the good of the peo ple, have been introduced, only to be de feated by the Influence of the money in terests. Right in this state nfany bene ficial measures have been Introduced in the Interests of labor, measures that were good in themselves and which contained nothing to which any fair-minded or Just citizen could object, but which have been rejected in the Interests of the corpora tions. "Organized labor Is an Important fac tor in' citizenship it Is the bone and sinew of 'the Nation, end Its labors In " legisla tion tend to Increase the safety of the people as well as to better their condi tion. We think that we are so strong that If we cannot get what we want through the men whom the present par ties put in office, we can put men In their places who will recognize the Just demands of labor." State Secretary's Views. In answer to a question as to whether the new party would in all cases place its own candidates In the field, Mr. Mc Donald 6aid: "While we think we are strong, we do not consider ourselves of euch strength as to ignore other good men. If the old parties will put good men on their tick ets, men who are friends of organized la bor and who will give to labor Its Just rights and recognition, then the Labor party will support them. If for any of fice such candidates are not selected then the Labor party will endeavor to find a proper man. - . "Although it will naturally be left to the convention of delegates to decide, I think in all probability the Labor party will begin Its active local work in the next municipal campaign, and undoubt edly It will have Its own ticket in the field; that is, providing the nominees of other parties are not acceptable. The party will also take an interest in the coming Legislature, and will support individual union bodies in securing the enactment of legislation desired by la bor." , W. H. Fitzgerald, secretary of the Port land Federated Trades Council, when in terviewed, said: "Since the suggestion for a Labor party was received from the National headquar ters local leaders have studied the mat ter deeply from every point of view and came to the conclusion that such a party Is sorely needed and that now la the right time for its organization. We think it is necessary for the promotion and safeguarding of labor's Interests. "The suggestion has met with a warm approval among the local unions, and the' same can be said of the state at large. We shall first organize the city party, over which the Federated Trades Council will exercise control. By control, I mean that the council will act as an advisory board. . "The council will not assume a dicta torial policy, but it la felt that since It is the parent body of organized labor and has taken the initiative in the formation of the organization and is largely respon sible for its future, it should exercise some degree of oversfght. ' "The main purpose of the party Is to secure officials who will take proper cog nizance of labor we do not care whether they are Republicans or Democrats, but we think the time has come when labor must obtain its Just demand" SDGJETY TO GIVE ' SHOW DRIVING CLUB MOVEMENT RE CEIVES IMPETUS AT SEATTLE. Boxes Have Been. Provided for Pa tricians and a Tan-Bark . Ring for Horses. SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 4. (Special.) Society wanta, an annual horse show and society is going to have it. And a real, actually real, horse show it is going to be, too, with patronesses, pri vate boxes for the patrician guests and common board seats ofr the rabble. There will also be horses. The Queen Anne Riding and Driving Club started It but It was a rather unpretentious horse show that was originally planned. Since the talk started, however, there have come to town some men and women who have Been Eastern horse shows and Seattle is going to have one Just as nearly like them as possible. In so far as the social side of the show Is concerned it's going to be a success. The list of patronesses guarantees a fastidious en semble If they have those things at horse shows. There will be 50 private boxes to contain the costumes and 500 seats to contain the public that comes to look on. There will be a tan-bark ring, beautiful decorations and a fashion able atttendance also horses. After some difficulty the horses have been classified and the Judging arranged for. The announcement of the horse show, coming right now when the political campaign Is beginning to attract some belated attention. Is no't received with all the enthusiasm that the baseball scores arouse, but the public is accept ing it as one of the midwinter events and it will probably be a "go." It is scheduled for December 13, 14 and 15, long enough after the election and early enough before the Christmas holi days to get public attention. There is not the largest number of well-bred horses for any city of Its size found in Seattle, but what there is of equine beauty and grace will be at the show. It's going to be worth going to see If the tan-bark ring isn't filled, for those 60 boxes certainly will be. STRIKE NOT IMMINENT. Demands of Southern Pacific Train men Still to Be Made. Persistent rumors are in circulation that there is imminent danger of the train men on the Southern Pacific system go ing on strike. Portland railroad men deny this and say that as yet the dis satisfied employes have made no formal demand upon the proper officials. The trainmen are asking for shorter hours and a readjustment of the wage schedule. The grievance commitee of the train men recently held a meeting at Oakland, Cal. Some of the delegates when they returned to their homes are credited with having stated that a strike all along the system Is Inevitable. Portland trainmen, however, say that the request of the trainmen has not as yet been carried up to the higher officials of the railroad and say that they do not expect a walk out. PERSONALMENTION.
