THE MOKXIXG ORECOXIAN, TUESDAY, NOVE3IBER 13, 1906. 5 TIS OF GREAT CAUSE Predicts Its Success in Speech to Associates on the Ticket. WINNERS GIVE BANQUET Defeated Candidate Confident His Ideas Will Xot He Pronounced Dangerous Nathan Straus Slams Brother Oscar. NEW YORK, Xov. 12. A complimentary dinner was Riven to V. II. Hearst tonight at Delmonko's by I,ewls Stuyvesant Chanler. V. S. Jackson, John S. Whalen, Julius Hanson and F. V. Skene, his as sociates on the Democratic and Indepen dence league state tickets. Besides Air. Hearst, there were 26 guests, all of whom were either associ ated with him during his recent campaign for Governor, or were successful judicial candidates on the Independence Jeague or other tickets. Mr. Chanler presided with Mr. Hearst at his right and Recorder Goft, who was elected to a place on the Supreme Court bench, at his left. The banquet was private. Mr. Hearst said he was proud of the cause that he and his candidates had fought for and of its partial success. That cauwe, he declared, was right and would be recognized as such "as soon as the din and dust and confusion of the battle shall subside." He knew that, when the Ideas he advo cated during the campaign were thorough ly understood, they would not be consid ered dangerous nor anarchistic, but would be recognized as Juot and patriotic. He concluded his speech with thanks to the various political elements who (sup ported his candidacy. Including "the inde pendent Republicans" and the "indepen dent labor voters." Nathan Straus, in a speech, declared tn;it. if his brother, Oscar Straus, had not been selected to be Secretary of Com merce and Inbor in President Roosevelt's f'abinet, he would have stumped the state "and told the people what a man Mr. Hearst is." EXAMINE K EJECTED BALLOTS New York Republicans Apply to Court on Election. NEW YORK, Nov. 12. Formal ap plication on behalf of the candidates on the Republican state ticket at the recent election for a judicial exami nation of all void and protested ballots In New York County was made today by A. S. Gilbert in the Supreme Court. Mr. Gilbert, who is a law partner of Attorney-General Mayer, is chairman of the law committee of the Republi can state committee. The application is for a writ of mandamus to have the board of canvassers of the County of New York show cause next Wednes day why the court should not Judicially examine all ballots rejected as void and protested as marked for identi fication. Justice McLean signed an order for the board of canvassers to show cause why the court should not examine tha void and protested ballots, but declined to sign another order for which appli cation was made, to prevent the board of canvassers from completing the can vass. The Justice said the latter appli cation was based on information too vague to warrant an order. Chairman Timothy L. Woodruff, of the Republican state committee, issued a statement tonight in which he said: I have not been requested by any candi date upon the Kepublicnn mate ticket to lnr Ktltute any contest or proceeding: to open ballot-boxes. So far us the procedure of having a count of the void and protested ballots by order of the court is concerned, that is simply the method provided by the election law to correct any errors that may have been made by the board of Inspectors of the various election districts. This pro reedlns can be instituted by any candi date who has been voted for in any election district. Of course this has nothing whatever to do with the question of opening the ballot bitxes, as these void and protested ballots constitute a part of the returns of the in spectors, placed In sealed envelopes and sent In with the returns. START CAMPAIGN l-'OR BRYAN Anti-Trust Travelers Will Organize Clubs as They Co. NEW YORK. Nov. 12. At a meeting of the Commercial Travelers- Anti-Trust League today, W. C. Hoge, the president, advocated W. J. Bryan for the next Dem ocratic Presidential candidate, and urged the members to assist In the establish ment of clubs and work in behalf of Mr. Bryan. Harry W. Walker, chairman of the executive committee, spoke along the same lines as Mr. Hoge. It was voted that a committee be ap pointed, to consist of 5000 Democratic commercial travelers, to be known as the "traveling committee." It was pointed out that the members on their journeys over the 1'nlted States will distribute lit erature and organize Bryan clubs. It was also voted to establish a "record bureau," in which articles attacking the trusts will be kept, to be printed in pamphlet form for distribution. It was decided to give a dinner at least once a month, to which Democrats of prominence will be invited. Mr. Bryan will be invited to be the guest at the first of these dinners. HE WINS BY LESS THAN 2000 Hock's Election Conceded, With Two Counties Missing. TOPFIKA, Kan.. Nov. 12. Official re turns from 103 counties out of a total of lis in the state give Governor Hoch a plu rality of 19S4 votes over Colonel W. A. Harris, Democrat. The returns from the i wo missing counties will change these llgures but slightly. Hoch did not receive a majority of all votes cast for Governor, but under the laws of Kansas a plurality Is all that is necessary to elect. W. H. Ryan, chairman of the Demo cratic state central committee, disbanded headquarters in this city today and left for his home in Pittsburg. "It seems now." said Mr. Ryan, "that Governor Hoch is re-elected by about 1500 plurality, although we have not received the official returns complete. We will make no contest, as we are well satisfied with the result.'" WOULD WIDEN THEIR MARKET Chicago Merchants Approve Hill's Canadian Reciprocity Idea. CHICAGO. Nov. 12. Widespread belief In the advisability of reciprocity with Canada was expressed yesterday by Chl cagoana as a result of the speech on the topic delivered before the Merchants' HEARS Club by James J. Hill. Many prominent men in finance and business declare, with scarcely a dissenting voice, that they were In entire accord with Mr. Hill's po sition. It was pointed out that betterment of trade relations with the Northern neigh bor would mean an extension of the Can adian market to the products of the Unit ed States and that such an extension wouiu probably benefit Chicago and the Northwest. Even men who were not in sympathy with the free-trade Ideas ex pressed themselves in favor of some low ering of the tariff wall as far as Canada was concerned. It was decided that Amer ican business men as a whole had lost through the absence of better trade rela tions with the Dominion. Occasion was also taken to sound a note of warning that the establishment of im proved relations should not be long de layed, for Canadians are declared to be changing to eome extent from their form er keen desire for reciprocity. Absurd Election Bet Paid. CALDWELL, N. J., Nov. 12. Dyed-in-the-wool Republicans ate raw fish and baked crow stuffed with sawdust and green persimmons sprinkled with cayenne pepper last night at a banquet, while 11 Democrats sat around, jeered and regaled themselves on Jersey squab en casserole and Blue Points on the half-shell. For drink the Republicans had a quart of hops and vinegar. The Democrats had champagne. John Elmsdorf was the lone Republican. He thought the Republican party had such a hold in Kssex County, the Home of United States Senator Dry den, that its grip could not possibly be shaken. Solomon Kent bet him a supper for 12 that the Democrats would carry the county. It was agreed that the loser should eat crow wheie the other would have Jersey squabs. SEVEN DIRECTORS ELECTED Portland Rowing Club Holds Annual Meeting Year's Work Reviewed. The annual meeting oi the Portland Rowing Club was held at Y. M. C. A. Hall last night. About 40 of the 300 mem bers were present. After hearing reports from all the officers and committees seven directors were electa-. They arc: R. W. . i.jur, P. E. Stowell, R. C. Hart. W. A. King. A. R. Stringer. E. O. Gloss and A. C. McMlcken. A meeting of the directors will be held Tuesday. November 20, at the office of R. W. Wilbur, in the Sherlock building. The directors will appoint the committees, elect officers and decide on a number of other important matters. During the past year the headquarters of the club have been moved from Morrison-street bridge to a point above the Inman-t oulsen sawmill, where two boat houses and a workshop were built. This improvement cost over S1300 and $1000 was expended in sending the rowing crew to Worcester. Mass., to compete for the championship of America. The cluo is now just $1000 in debt, which is the same amount as last year. In . roperty the club has over $25,000 and over $11.0ou was paid into the treasury last year. In number of members Portland Rowing Club ranks third In the North Pacific Association of Amateur Oarsmen. Not only in numbers does the Portland club rank high, for last season the local club won all the cups in the North Pacific Association and was second in the race for the championship of North America. In that memorable race Nonpariel Rowing Club, of Staten Island, near New York City, defeated Portland by a bare half length. The next annual regatta of the North Pacific Association will be held at Seattle and the Seattle Athletic Club will have a crew in the contest FOR LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP Columbia and Hill Promise Exciting Contest on Friday. Columbia University and Hill Military Academy will meet on the gridiron next Friday in a game for the championship of the Interscholastic League. The com ing contest should be even harder than the Columbia-High School game, for both teams are about evenly rr.atcued in weight with the advantage in favor of Hill. The High School team was about five pounds lighter to the man than Columbia, but in the cadets Columbia will meet a heavier and well-coached team. The High School's visions of winning the pennant and cham pionship of the league went glimmering Saturday, when Moore planted the pigskin across her goal line. If Columbia defeats Hill Friday, the fight so far as the pennant and league championship is concerned, will be ovter with Columbia, the victor. On the other hand, should Hill win from Columbia, the cadets will still have the High School to defeat before they can claim the cham pionship. If the cadets win from Colum bia, there is little doubt that they will de'eat the High School. However, if the High School should defeat Hill, after Hill had defeated Columbia, it would take a first-class dope artist to decide which of the three teams is entitled to the championship. Eltot Approves New Football. onsTnv Nov. 12. Football under the new rules, as demonstrated in the Har vard-Carlisle game at camonage atu,5 day, meets with favorable comment frteii TiH,r,t Charles W. Eliot, of Harvard University, in an interview made public today. President iiiot attenaea Satur day's contest and expressed his enjoy nt th fame, which, he said, ap peared to him "free from unnecessary roughness. Football is considered on probation at Harvard this year. A committee ap pointed several months ago is still dis cussing the subject of athletic sports with special reference to football, but has not yet submitted its report. President Eliot's views, as expressed today, it is expected, will have some weight with the committee in recommending that football be retained. Pacific College in League. The report that Pacific College has withdrawn from the State Basketball League is not true. Pacific University has drawn out, but a message received from Newberg says Pacific College is in to stay. Mr. Grilley, of Portland Y. M. C. A., says that the statement made by him that Physical Instructor Wilson, of Newberg, was the cause of Newberg's withdrawal, was a result of a misappre hension. No reason is given for the ac tion of Pacific University. The cham pions of the league will be considered the champions of Oregon. All profession alism will be strictly prohibited and every participant will be compelled to register in either the Amateur Athletic Union or the North American Athletic League. Races at Aqueduct.

TOT Britain and France Will Give Morocco Lesson. ANARCHY RENDS COUNTRY Outrages Upon Foreigners and Tri bal Wars Weary Great Powers. British Fleet Ordered to Join French at Tangier. GIBRALTAR, Nov. 12.-The British At lantic fleet is to leave here for Tangier. In conjunction with a French fleet of warships, it will engage in a demonstra tion in Moorish waters. The British war ships were provisioned tonight on very short notice. During the last few months conditions in the interior of Morocco have con stantly grown worse. Foreigners have been assaulted and outraged, towns have been raided, Jews have been persecuted, foreign vessels on the coast have been fired upon and, while the diplomatic rep resentatives of the powers concerned have protested to the Sultan, their de mands have been received with slight at tention. The agitation against foreigners is re ported to be on the increase, and Spain. ha3 found it necessary to send a war ship to the Moroccan coast to remove Spanish subjects. Insurgent tribesmen have been active in creating disorder among themselves and the forces of the Sultan and those under Bu-Hamara, the pretender to the throne, have come in contact in recent months, with victory first on one side and then on the other. The diplomats at Tangier have protest ed more than once to the Moroccan au thorities against the lack of protection for foreigners, but no improvement has been forthcoming. In fact, the local au thorities have been increasingly aggres sive and even insolent in their treatment of the local representatives of France and Spain. France already has one or two cruisers in Moroccan waters. The American mission to Fez under the American Minister to Morocco, Mr. Gum mere, is at the capital for the purpose, among other things, of obtaining satis factory assurance for the safety of Amer icans in Morocco, as well as indemnity for outrages committed in Morocco upon per sons under American protection. The international conference held at Al geciras this Spring agreed upon certain reforms for Morocco, and the Moorish representatives agreed to the provisions of the conference, which were accepted and signed by the Sultan on June 18. The reforms are to go into effect the end of this year. RAISULI APPOINTED GOVERNOR Sultan Hoonrs Bandit Chief Fanat ics Want Gummere Away. TANGIER, Nov. 12. Official news of the appointment of Raisuli. the bandit chief, to be Governor of the town of Arzilla and neighboring provinces has been received here. This nomination is made by the Sultan. The territory under Raisuli's authority extends from Tangier to El-Raisch. It is reported here that Mr. Gummere, the American Minister, paid what is be lieved to be his final visit to the Sultan four days ago at Fez. Mohammedans at Fez are beginning to display dissatisfac tion with the prolonged sojourn in Fez of the mission of which Mr. Gummere is the head. All Goes Well About Morocco. PARIS, Nov. 12. Foreign Minister Pinchon, in an interview today regard ing the Moroccan situation, declared that the understanding between France and Spain concerning the measures to be taken in Morocco was not complete. He added: "The terms of the Algeciras convention will be strictly followed. Nothing has oc curred warranting a suspicion that the Berlin government is disposed to inter pose difficulties. The organization of the State Bank is proceeding as rapidly as possible." LAST CHANCE FOR CHURCH Has One Year After December 1 1 to Secure Its Property. PARIS, Nov. 12. The debate cn the application of the church and state sep aration law was resumed in the Chamber of Deputies today. M. Piou, amid ap plause from the Right, insisted that they should negotiate a settlement at Rome. Replying to numerous interpellations, M. Briand, the Minister of Education, cleared up an important point relative to the application of the law. He declared that after December 11 this year, church property "could" be handed over to local authorities, but after December 1L 1907, it "must" be awarded to them. All cultural associations formed after next month, however, might eventually ac quire such church property, should the state so decide. STILL TRUSTS VON BUELOW Emperor Ridicules Rumors and Lets Von Podbielskl Go. BERLIN, November 12. Emperor Wil liam, while dining with Chancellor von Buelow Saturday, said to him in the course of their conversation that the re ports of a coming change in the Chan cellorship were nonsense. Prince von Buelow, His Majesty added, continued to retain his full confidence. The Emperor yesterday accepted the resignation of Minister of Agriculture von Podbielskl. The provisional suc cessor is Dr. von Bothmann-Hellwcg, the Minister of the Interior. BLOWS UP RUSSIAN WARSHIP Japanese Destroyer Protects Sealers at Copper Islands. VICTORIA, B. C., Nov. 12. According to advices by the Empress of China, which arrived this afternoon, a telegram to Japanese newspapers from Vladivostok reports great excitement occasioned there by the report that the converted cruisers Silka and Kelima, which have been doing patfol duty at the seal rookeries oft Cop per Islands, have been sunk by a Japa nese destroyer in the neighborhood of the seal islands. The Japanese Mail discredits the re ports, saying, if such disaster has oc curred at the Islands, it is probably due to floating mines. For the past two years excitement has been occasioned because of, organized sealing raids at the Copper Islands by Japanese sealing schooners. Last year six schooners with a field gun made a raid, in which 21 Japanese and a number of Russians, the total unknown, wore killed. The Japanese on that occasion were driven off, leaving 800 seals killed on the rookery. This Spring Russia dis patched three cruisers the Silka. Kolima and another to the island, and in conse WAR HPS quence the majority of the Japanese seal ing fleet went to Behring Sea, where two schooners' crews raided St. Paul rookery. Baron Bruggen, of the Kamtchatkan Development Company, which has leased the Copper Island rookeries from Russia, was in Japan protesting to the Japanese government at Copper Islands when the Empress of China left. He was despond ent because the Japanese officials seemed to be taking advantage of the weak state of Prussia to put off action. None of the raiders were prosecuted on return home, nor was any. action taken by the govern ment again.st the raiders who landed at the American rookeries in Behring Sea. Baron Bruggen was gathering data re lating to the outrages both at the Copper Islands and at Kamtchatka. HAAKON VISITS ENGLAND. Norway's King and Queen Guests of Edward and Alexandra. LONDON.

The route from the depot to the castle was lined with troops, and the royal travelers received a splendid welcome from the inhabitants of the borough, the baby Crown Prince com ing in for a full share of the popular plaudits.

The Vatican authori ties, through the Archbishop of Athens, have acquiesced in the King of Greece visiting King Victor Emmanuel Novem ber 23 and remaining here four days. If King George desires to see the Pope, the latter will willingly accede to his request and will follow the same cere monial as observed at the time of the visit of King Edward, but, as Greece has no diplomatic representation at the Vatican, King George will go from the Quirinal Palace to the Hellenic Lega tion accredited to the Quirinal, starting from there in a private carriage. His Majesty will be received with royal hon ors at the Vatican. Xo Verdict on International Divorce. LONDODN, Nov. 19.

The Colonial police force, which is pursuing the in surgent party under the Transvaal Boer, Ferrera, was within five miles of the raiders late last night, but the scarcity of water and the sandy country render the chase difficult. The fugitives have gained several recruits. LONDON, Nov. 12. The Boer raid in the northwestern part of Cape Colony oc casions no anxiety in government circles. RACE FEUD IN OHIO TOWN Negro Slashes White and Excitement Grows Intense. MOUNT VERNON. Ohio. Nov. 12.

Claim They "Were Beaten,, Abused, Half Starved and Forced to Work Iike Slaves. NORFOLK. Va., Nov. 12. Protesting that they -were abused, mercilessly assaulted, half starved and forced to work almost beyond human endurance, eight men, two whites and six blacks, were brought here today by United States Marshals West and Miller, who had rescued them from the Chesapeake Bay oyster schooner J. S. Whiting. A warrant was issued for the arrest of the owner of the vessel on a charge of peonage. The story told by Robert Taylor and Elijah Murphy, white men, is a repe tition of all the shameful abuses of the oyster industry. According1 to these men Captain Whiting forced his crew to work like slaves, fed them only the cheapest food In small quantities, beat them when he felt like it and kept them prisoners aboard the schooner. Only by smuggling a letter ashore, telling their plight, were the men able to communicate with friends and ob tain relief, according to their story. Captain Whiting opened their mall and refused to permit them to post letters. When complained to the captain is re ported to have said: "To h I with Uncle Sam's mall." It is expected that when he arrives he will be charged with a Federal ofTense In this connec tion. SESSION WILL BE STORMY Growing Popular Discontent to Be Reflected in Reichstag. BERLIN, Nov. 12. What will probably prove to be the stormiest session in the history of the Reichstag will open tomor row. The country is seething with dis content to an unparalleled extent; bitter ness and personal criticism of the Kaiser are rampant. In many quarters the sug gestiqn is made that the Reichstag's first act ought to be to address the throne ex pressing the people's bitter mood and de termination to demand relief from the grievances they are suffering. The gov ernment Is to be assailed from practically all sides. Every party has a different list of complaints and has mapped out its own scheme of attack. Three questions of paramount import ance engage immediate attention the meat famine, colonial scandals and the language question in Poland. The gov ernment will be compelled to assume a weak position on account of the enfeebled condition of Chancellor von Buelow, whose oratorical and diplomatic qualities hitherto have been the Ministry's chief reliance. Whether the Kaiser has an other Minister worthy of Herr Bebel's steel remains to be seen. The Chancellor will reappear in the Reichstag for the first time since his dramatic collapse last April, but Is believed to be hopelessly un equal to the onslaughts awaiting the gov ernment. A NEW NATIONAL HYMN? "The Star Spangled Banner" Is Too Tlnoat Rending. North American Review. Will not some one kindly compose a new National hymn? We should dislike to lose "The Star-Spangled Banner" unit-fly because of Its patriotic origin on board an American frigate during a British bombardment, and we love to recall such incidents as that in Castle Garden, when Daniel Webster, to the distress of his wife, and the delight of the audience, set the example of rising, which has since become common, and, by main strength and with mighty voice, joining In the chorus with Jenny Lind. But, after all, only the words are American, the atro cious music being that of "Anacreon in Heaven," composed by an Englishman. It is therefore distinctively National only in part, and after nearly a century of trying service might well be laid upon the shelf. A yet more efficient reason for seeking a substitute is found in the fact that the American people have been trying in vain foe nearly a century to Ping it. Uespitc the general cultivation of voices, the endeavor of an audience today to respond to the demand upon their pa triotic spirit continues to be as pathetic as It mis ever occn u-peraie. even our j 11 i :i .i.i' .t 'I -".il f for loyal Navy takes "America" in place of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at evening colors. From time to time the sugges tion Is made that this substitution be generally made, but here again objection arises from the fact that only the words of "America," too, are American. On British ocean steamships a prior right is tacitly accorded to the British, and "God Save the King" is sung. While we per sist in adherence to "The Star-Spangled Banner." it is fitting that this recogni tion should be extended to our British cousins, although as a matter of fact their claim upon the air for a national hymn is no stronger than ours and ma terially weaker than that of others. It was composed by the Frenchman, Lully, in the 17th century, was adapted to -the House of Hanover by Handel and prompt ly taken over by Switzerland for "Rufst du, mein Vateriand," although the Han overians never abandoned it, "Hell dir im Siegerkranz," not "Die Wacht am Rhein," being to this day the national hymn of Germany. Consequently, the eve-song of British. Swiss, German and American soldiers about to go into battle would consist of the same music and a jumble of words by Carey, Harries, Rev. Samuel F. Smith and whoever wrote the Swiss LUYTIES Over half a century ago, Herman Luyties, a German physician and scientist, and a firm believer in Homeopathy, as taught by the famous Hahnemann, came to America and opened in St. Louis, a laboratory; under his personal directions, all the reme dies of the Homeopathic school were prepared. Succeeded upon his death by his two sons, the fame of "Luyties" has continued to grow, and today tlreir products are "standard" the world over, bearing testimony to the thoroughness and fidelity to truth of the trained German Scientist. We are sole agents in the Northwest for Luyties famous Homeopathic remedies and preparations. The gentleman in charge of this department studied and worked for years with the Luyties Company, he and his assistants are skilled in their work, and there are no preparations, simple or complicated, which we cannot supply promptly, correctly and of un questioned quality.
