5 THE MOR"ITG OREGOSIA, MONDAY, JAXUARY SI, 1907. T 15 Old Guard and Reformers in . Local Democracy Alike Covet Honor. WHY MAYOR WAS SLIGHTED Kryan Clnb Did Not Invite Dr. Lane to Act on Committee Because He Openly Snubbed Body, Say George L. Hutchln. Oorge L. Hutohin, president of the fBrya.n Hub, declares that the committee from his organization Is the one real committee to receive "William J. Bryan vhen he arrives In Portland next Tues- day. Mr. Hutchln does not consider the other committees seriously. Notwithstanding- his confidence, Mr. Hutchln seems . doomed to disappointment at the outset, for It la understood that Mr. Bryan has already promised D. M. Wat son, who represents the reform element of the local Democracy, that he will place himself In Mr. Watsoh's hands. Mr. Hutchln and his friends believe that Bryan will recognize their com mittee. They have a bundle of corres pondence between the officers of the Bryan Club and the distinguished Ne braskan, and one of the letters Bryan says he would be dellirhted to aecerjt an invitation to a banquet planned by the ciritaniBation it ne oouia possibly ar- arrange It. Mr. Hutchin says that the reason Mayor Ine was not appointed on the reception 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i , ij oi me nryHii uiub was be cause he boldly snubbed the organiza tion when It was first organized. Mayor Iane was appointed a member of the ' reoeptlon committee of the Toung Men "I know of no trouble In the Demo cratic ranks." said Mr. Hutchln yester day. "Ours Is the reception committee and" if others desire to assist us In the reception of Mr. Bryan we shall be pleased to have them. But as a reception committee we have the prior rights. Mayor Snubs Bryan Club. "Last Summer the State Democratic Hub was organized in this city with a membership of 2O0. A banquet waa given at Watson's restaurant. Mayor Lane was invited to deliver an address. His Honor came to the front door, took a look in and then went away. Evidently the affair did not strike him favorably. The Bryan Club did not wish a second slight and did not Invite Mayor Lane to become a member of the Bryan recep tion committee. But now that he seems anxious in the matter the Bryan Club Kladly welcomes him to Its assistance In honoring the greatest American citizen. "George H. Thomas wag asked officially as chairman of the County Democratic -ommittee to attend the banquet given by the Bryan Club and to make a speech. In a caustic letter In which he took Democrat to task for defeating his candidates he grew eloquent on the sub ject of harmony and did not attend the banquet. The club is therefore surprised that Mr. Thomas at this time should be- come "T tntnely Interested. He Is wplrnmfvl heartily to the assistance of the Bryan Club. i "Many months ago the Bryan Club took up the matter of brinRinpr Mr. Bryan to the pity. When it wns learned- that he would sneak here under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. a banquet for Mr. Bryan was planned by the club bearing his name and he accepted the courtesy provided It did. not conflict with. fti con tract with the lyceum bureau. A mild protest from that source caused elimina tion of the banquet. "The Bryan Club does not wish to monopolize the welcome and courtesies that will be showered upon our dis tinguished guePt. At a recent meeting of the Bryan Club reception committee it wan voted to ask and ursre every iDemo cratic organization in the city to come forward and assist in the reception of Mr. and Mrs. Bryan. And every Democrat whether a member of any Democratic or frwn izat Jon Is ureod to come forward to welcome the Rreat Commoner. Every- body is "Invited to greet Mr, and Mrs. Hrynn. Republicans, Socialists and all others." Jjemonacles Steal a March. Mr. HuMiin's faction lost to the. other side in the initial skirmish of the habeas corpus tussle That is to say members of the- reform element, who have been duhbed the "seltzer lemonades," will have the Nobraskan In custody -Turing his stay, with the possible exception of m few hours when the Old Guard, known as the "stralKht-itps," expect, to take him over to the Elks' Club for a period ' of mild diversion. The "lemonadM" won when 15. M. Wat son was in Uncoln. just after the return of Mr. Bryan from his globe-trotting tour. He exacted a promise that when Mr. Bryan came West he should have the honor of taking the Nebraska n in hand. The bargain was struck, and al though the "straight-ups have appointed their reception committee with creden tials from the Bryan Club, the actual keeping of the standard bearer will be to the Rlory of the "lemonades.' Mr. Watson belongs to the "seltzer lem- onados" It waa he who superintended the big- spread in his own restaurant one nigh t last Summer. in honor of Mr. Bryan, when the circumambient atmos- phere W3S so tropical that the BidewaiKs almost cracked with the heat, and yet the parched throats of -the assembled brethren taeited nothing- stronger and more thirst-quenching than "orange-ade." Hence the relation of host and guest betwixt Messrs. Watson and Bryan Is a "feljser lemonade" triumph and more" a the misery where lemonade doesn't go.

What a change 'twlxt now and the last coming to Oregon of William Jen- ninps Bryan: The Old Guard scratch their crantums and ro on their way sadly.

MISS FLEEING BURGLAR Special Policeman and Citizen Shoot Badly anil oftenl An attempt to loot the residence ot Pro fessor Justus Burnham, principal of the Couch School, early yesterday morning resulted in a volley of pistol bullets being- flred at a fleeing; burglar by Special Policeman Joe Fltzsimmons and Jack Shields, a citizen. At about 1 o'clock a telephone message to Captain of Police Bailey announced that a man was at tempting; to break: into the Bumham resi- dence, and Special Officer Fltzsimmons was called up by telephone and ordered to Investigate. The special waa the only officer within ca.ll of the station at the time. In company with Shields, Fltz- simmona hurried to Seventeenth and Kearney street. On their arrival they no ticed nothing: wrong; and entered the house to talk with Professor Burnham. While the officer was being Informed that a man had been seen attempting- to cut out a pane of g-Iasa jn A basement door, a servant srlrl from a nelghbqring resi dence rushed Into the Burnham home and announced that she had just seen a man leave the yard and run down Seventeenth, street. Fltssimmons ran into the street, fbl- lowed by Shields, and took the direction said to have been taken by the house breaker. The arc llg-ht at the croner of Seventeenth and Kearney was not burn ing and it was several seconds before the officer caught sight of the burglar. The latter had crossed Seventeenth street and was running In the shadow of the Couch School when sighted by the special, who immediately called upon him to halt. The command was not obeyed, whereupon Fltzsimmons opened fire. Two shots were sent after the fugitive by the officer, but the latter only ran the faster. As he reached Lovejoy street the man again crossed the street and turned toward Sixteenth. As he did this another shot was fired by the pursuing officer, and Shields coming up at the moment In quired If the fleeing man was the robber. On belnir answered in the affirmative, he also opened fire. So far as known none of the shots reached their mark and the burglar made good his escape. The special officer describes the burglar as a loner-lesrsed younir man wearing- a short, tlsrht-nttinsr llg-ht coat. Fltzsimmons is a snort man ana was much Impressed by the superior speed of the burglar. Professor Burnham reports that the man did not succeed In graining; entrance to his bouse. T HOPE DF FAITHFUL Job of Police Chief Bids Fair to Decorate the Fie Counter. OLD GUARD SCENT SPOILS Demand That Mayor Lane Make Good With Party by Appointing Some AVarhorse to $200- a-Month Office, Hope of the Democratic legion of pie- hunters, crushed to earth IS months by Mayor Utno's refusal to dole out the I IE LEGISLATORS WHO FELL. A PREY Senator Beach Txtokinir for Xote for t-ttate l'rinter Four Years Heave. 200-a-month job of Chief of Police, has risen ag;ain, now - that the City Council seems to be forcing Gritzmacher, acting chief, out of that office, by refusing him the J2C0 and allowing him only J125 a month, the salary of a captain of police, the position which the law recognizes as hJs. Springing up on all sides are aspirants for the 200 job. for it seems unlikely that Lane will appoint Gritzmacher to the place, or that Ciritzmacher would want it. for he would have tn release his hold on the $125 job of captain and misrhfc not regain that sure position se cured to him by d-vll service law of the charter, Lane's present term will last only five months more, and as his re election is an uncertainty, Gitzmacher probably will not desire to exchange for it his present sure Job. at least such la the gossip of Democratic brethren. Alienated Ills Followers. Lane alienated numbers of his Demo cratic compatriots on becoming Mayor In July, 1905, by not appointing a chief out of the ranks of his Democratic fol lowers. While Gritzmacher is nominally a Democrat, the faithful allege that he has not been a stanch member of his party and that the iron-clad patriots do not recof-nize him as one of them. Lane appointed Gritzmacher acting chief, thus allowing him to retain his old joh of captain, while in fact holding that of chief. Soon thereafter Patrick Bruin was appointed Inspector of i olic and chief ot the detective squad, a position under civil service, but secured for him, evidently, by the Mayor's influence with the Oivil Service Commission. before which Bruin took: his examinations. ' A Btorm ensued, but Bruin held on and Mayor Lane backed him up. But not long; ano the Circuit Court held that Bruin's appointment had been made In violation of civil service regu- latlons. Pursuant to this decision the Council has refosed to appropriate money this year for Bruin's salary of S12S a month, and It seems tbat Bruin will have to serve for nothing or get off the force. Xa-st Chance to Make Peace. "Sore" at Lane for his refusal to choose a chief from the "old guard or the faithful, numbers of Lane's com patriots have been nursing- their feelingm. threatening- to give them vent in the next Democratic primaries and the next city election, when. Lane will be a candidate agan. Now they are saying that Lane has a last chance to make peace with them. One of the leading aspirants 18 months ago was John Lamont, who is now boomed for the job. Lamont and his followers have not been on the best of terms with the Mayor, but have been conceallnig; their feelings. Others talked of for the place are 31. J. Clohessy, Jo- seph F. Rellly, Dave Houston, J. B. Ryan. John Van Zante. E. J. Jeffrey, John Burgard. tt. "W. Parker. O. B. "Wll 1 ta.mt, George Lewis. El Versteg, George) H. Thomas, a Freeman and a host of others. Manning i n the Backgronnd. The present situation has Important bearing on the next Democratic primaries. for if Lane should not make peace with bis Democratic brethren, they will line up behind another candidate for Mayor, who will probably be John Manning, in this event Lane might not enter the Democratic primaries, and Instead mie;ht run Independent. The situation in the police station Is an Interesting one, If for no other reason than that Gritzmacher and Bruin appear about crowded out. Between the two has existed, a rivalry, approaching close to jealousy. Bruin's authority has been independent and actually superior to that of his nominal chief, and Gritzmacher has held the place of a figurehead in many respects. DEATH ENDS HIS ILL LUCK Jno Ling, Chinese Merchant, Once Wealthy, Passes Away. Jue Ling, better known among: his friends and associates as Charley Ung. one of Portland besl-known Chinese merchants, died at his home. 230 Oak street, at 7:30 o'clock last evening after a lingering: illness. Jue Ling- had been a resident of Oregron for - over 30 years, and up to the time he was taken ill sev eral years ago, was rated as one of the wealthiest Chinamen In the state. At one time he owned several fine ranches In the "Willamette- Valley on which ho raised large crops of hops. One year the price f hop went very low and during this season Una- lost between $6000 and S7O0O. Subsequent losses and illness served to diminish his fortune untilat the time of bis death he was no lonfrer well to do. Ke left a wife and daughter in Ron?- kong, his former home. He was never able to bring them to the United States. Jue was about 48 years old and was attended in bis last illness by Tr. TJloyd Irvine. Arrangements for the funeral will be made today. OFFICIALS IN PORTLAND Harriman Party Goes to Seattle for Investigation.

The officials reached Portland at 9:20 yesterday-morning- and left at 4:30 for Seattle. tt. P.

F Dunne, general attorney for the same company, arrived yesterday from San Francisco in the private car Sunset and left for Seat tle on the 4:30 Northern Pacific train. The Interstate Commerce Commission hearing Is alne the magnet that attracts these officials to Puiret Sound. Traffic Director Stubbs would make no statement yesterday as to his visit to the Coast beyond the simple fact that he would attend the in vestieratlon at Seat tle, he thought nest not to talk. "When asked for an expression on the subject of the widespread railroad investigation now Brolriff on throughout the country, he said: "Wait unttf the Investigations have been concluded and then 1 will have something to say.' The matters to he taken up at Seattle are those brought up at the ChicaRO ses sion of the Interstate Commerce Commis sion hearinfr, when inquiry was made into the ownership of the Harriman lines and the merging- of the properties under one management to ascertain If such action is not illegal in that it does away with competition in the territory served by the Harriman lines. Mr. Stubbs and his party expects to return through Portland upon the con clusion of the Seattle hearing. PLANS AN, IMPROVEMENT H. 0. Stickney May Build Apart- ment House on Penojer Block. If the option Is closed which H. 0. Stlckney holds' for the lease of the IVnnoyer block it will be Improved with an apartment house larger and finer than anything: now In the city. Mr. Stickney's option will not expire until May 1. and be is present negotiat ing financial backing for the enterprise which he has in hand. He feels that success is probable, and that Portland will gain an Improvement which will be a credit to the city. The Pcnnoyer block Is bounded by Morrison, Alder, West Park and Tenth streets. Lying; near the business sec tion of the city, it Is an ideal site for a costly apartment house. There is at present a demand for more buildings of this character and there Is on foot a movement to erect other structures of this class besides the one proposed by Mr. StlcKney. "It is too early for me to say whether the option which I hold upon the Pan- oyer property will be closed." said Mr. Stlckney. "but I thins: that the chances are very- favorable. It is a large project and'one that takes time to work out. but there is certainly a demand In Portland for just such a building. "If constructed this will be by far the largest and most costly apartment house in the city. Tn this particular Portland is behind other cities of equal or less population. Tah Spokane, for Instance, p-tilch la much emailed than Portland, and yet has several excellent apartment houses. That there is the same demand here is shown by the fact that I have already received many ap- plications from those who wish to be- come tenants of the building If it is erected." Lents Fire Quickly Extinguished. By the presence of mind of Miss Wiley, daughter of a Lents real estate dealer, and the prompt response of the volunteer fire company early yesterday morning the two-story frame building occupied by I. F Coffman as a general merchandise store was saved from destruction. Miss Wiley occupies rooms on the second floor, above the store. She awakened to dis cover smoke pouring Into her room. She called to Mr. Tyler, who also has a room in the building, and be gave the alarm which Drought out the fire company. The flames were extinguished before they got under rfat headway. The damage was about SIOO. The Are appeared to have been caused by some defect In the chim ney. ' "Will Xjecture on Swit.xerla.ndl. Rev. Samuel G.

Jt is a B;enerally accepted fact that con sumption is not Inherited; but instead, a weakened resistive power is conveyed to the offspring, rendering- them liable to become easily infected by the germ. Cleanliness Is Important. "From the standpoint of those that are healthy, absolute cleanliness should be urged. Children should be allowed plenty of fresh air and outdoor exer cise at all times. Their sleeping-rooms should be well lighted and ventilated. Their clothing should be warm, but not excessive chest protectors and addi tional wraps should be discouraged. Any departure from perfect health should at once receive the attention of the physician. Catarrh, throat trouble and mouth breathing: should be cor rected. Following all illnesses, the fam- ily physician should be consulted until the patient nas ent Irel y recovered. The teeth and eyes should be carefully watched for any defects. Food should be plain and wholesome. Children should be taught to avoid the perni cious habit of spitting or puttiHK pen cils, money or toys Into the mouth, and not to bite from the same apple with others, or to chew gum used by other children, and tbat infection may often be conveyed by these means. "Only that amount of school work should be allowed that can he per formed without any danger of over taxing the pupil.

"Nature In her most bountiful mood has enuowed us with a climate where children can, with perfect safety, sleep with the windows wide open at all times of the year, where the weather Is never too severe for them to enjoy their hours of recreation In the open air. The danger of disease would be greatly lessened by taking advantage of these opportunities. "The experience of the Portland open air sanitarium during the past two years amply justlfles the statement that consumption can in a very large per- centage of cases be cured if taken In Its early stage. The greatest good of sanitariums, however. Is in educating the public how to live so as to be able to prevent the disease. Will Advertise St. Johns. The St. Johns Commercial Club at its last meeting adopted plans for advertis ing the advantages of the place to the world. Secretary G. J.
