THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1907. MUST STOP SALE OF VILE CURDS Authorities Decide to Keep Up Vigorous Prosecutions Until Evil Ends. FOUR COMPLAINTS MADE Exposure Is Followed by Prompt Action ou Part of Police and the District Attorney's Office in Order to Stop Violation. Complaints were issued yesterday by Deputy District Attorney Haney in four cases against violators of the law pro hibiting the exposure and sale of im modest and indecent pictures. The com plaints were sworn to by Patrick J. Maher, detective for the District Attor ney's office, who had gathered the evi dence in the shape of-mailing cards, upon which are pointed pictures that would bar the cards from the mails. The use of the wards "post card" on the face of the cards is said to be simply a subter fuge to deceive purchasers, as it is well known the postal regulations forbid the handling of indecent pictures or writings. Dealers, therefore, in case any question is raised by a purchaser concerning the legality of having these pictures in his possession may turn to the address side and show the lines where an address is to be written, leaving the Inference that the cards are not pronounced unmallable by the Government and must be within the exceptions of the law. The four complaints signed yesterday were against A. A. Wise, Sixth and Stark: Samuel L Beary, Marquam build ing; John Fisher, 62 N, Sixth street and Vald LUell. GO North Sixth street. The fact that Wise was found guilty of the same offense yesterday In the Municipal Court' and was fined $10 by Acting Judge Strode, does not act as a bar to the pro ceedings in the present instance. Mr. Haney explaining that the action in the Municipal Court was brought for violation of a city ordinance, whereas the com plaint (lied yesterday is for the violatton of a state law. If the arrested persons are convicted in the Circuit Court the minimum fine is $500 or imprisonment In the penitentiary for a year. Mr. Haney expressed the opinion that the evidence he has In his possession is of such a character that the offenders will have some difficulty in convincing the court that the pictures are innocent and that the selling of them was not clearly forbidden by state statutes. Judge Strode yesterday In passing sen tence upon A. A. Wise said from the bench: "The authorities have wisely started a crusade against the exhibition and sale of immoral or suggestive postcards. I give notice now that anybody else who is brought before me on this charge will be severely dealt with." Chief of Police Gritzmacher said yester day afternoon that the sale of vulgar pic tures and the running of "peep-hole" exhibitions have increased right along since the Lewis and Clark Fair, and had become so bad that finally he Issued orders to the patrolmen and detectives to bring in samples of any indecent pictures found that might be used as evidence In a prosecution of the sellers. He added: "The result has been the accumulation of quite a lot of pictures, the most of which are suggestive of vice rather than positively indecent. I have ordered the arrest in any instance where there was a palpable violation of the city ordinance or state law. and when in doubt I have referred the pictures to the City Attorney or to the District Attorney for determin ation of the character of the evidence. "I have received no opinion on most of the pictures submitted those of a sug gestive nature so that little has been done in the way of making arrests, except in the case of a North End 'peep-hole' show and the Wise case yesterday, I thinlt the exposure in The Oregonian will help very much to put a stop to the sale tf vulgar pictures and to suppress the sale also of those that might not come under the scope of the law, but are not fit for public exhibition." . Postmaster Minta Was asked concerning the use of the words post card on vile pic tures. He said the department made a nice distinction between the words post card and postal card. The latter is the official name of cards Issued by the Government, and no others are permitted to employ that trm on picture cards or on private mailing cards, i The authorities seem to be in earnest in the work and all express the inten tion to push the prosecution of offenders until there are no more doubtful pictures offered anywhere in the city for sale or permitted to be placed on exhibition. WHERE FARMER STANDS Asserts His Right to Form a Little Trust of His Own. LATOURELL FALLS. Or., Aug. 28. (To the Editor.) Let us see for & moment how It stands with equity between the farmer and the individual worker and if the -new farmer trust, the Society of Equity, really belies Its name. In the first place your in dividual worker has the right by law to de mand the pay for his labor at any time, even if it was unsatisfactory, defective and bad. The farmer has no such rights by law; because If he brings his labor to mar ket in the shape of products, which Is the only way he can offer it for sale, and it Is not satisfactory, or defective and bad. It is condemned and taken away from him by law and he Bets nothing whatever for his labor and Is 'possibly lined on top of it. Do you call that equity? Besides that, the farmer has to credit his work to society not only for months, but for years, and often half a lifetime, which he does for society in the chape of building roads through wildernesses, improving the coun try, clearing land and raising produce for all, before he Is able and entitled to collect some pay for it, provided that the latter is not confiscated by law and that he finds a buyer for it, when the worker has the right In this society to demand the pay for his labor at any time. Do you call that equity? In this way the farmer is com pelled to credit his labor to society, but If he wants some credit from society ha Is compelled to pay high Interest for it. Do you call this equity? Capitalists, trades men, and the greatest part of the Indi vidual workers referred to In a recent Or egonLan, editorial, have banded together in unlcns or trusts for the purpose to force other individuals of our society under their will, to defy our laws, to create state laws far their own selfish Interests and to elect county and state officers to uphold them, to work shorter hours and do less work and get higher pay for it than other individuals unorganised to such trusts, to kill free competition and to raise the price for their labor and labor products at will to the damage of other people and other classes of lnbor, not exempting the farmer. Do you call thafcequlty? The farmer waited a long time for relief; he saw how all these trusts robbed him and pulled the money out of bis pocket when he had to buy something. Now, in order to get even with all those trusts and in order to create a little more equity In our society, he himself goes into the trust business and calls the latter per fectly rightfully, "Society of Equity." I would be the last man on earth who would be in favor of any kind of union or trust In our National life which tries to cripple or stop free and unlimited exchange of labor and labor products among its mem bers therein, because It is against the laws of nature . which create and maintain the real welfare, health, happiness and prosper ity of any special life, not excepting that In our nation; but for the sake of a good lesson to all other trusts In our nation, I wish that this farmer trust will prosper and that It will screw the prices up In the same degree or a little better than the other trusts, just to show them how utterly worthless for their real welfare and pros perity the whole trust scheme is if all other members of our National life form trusts, too. The existence, welfare, health, happiness and prosperity of any special life, not ex cepting the special life In our families, cities, states and nation, are created and maintained by natural regulations or laws. If we violate any of these laws or regula tions then we have to suffer for it and Just the contrary will happen in spite of all that we may do In the way of laws and reg ulation. And do you ever forget that? One of these natural laws or regulations, which create and maintain to & very great extent the real welfare of all special life. Is: "The unlimited and undisturbed ex change of labor and labor products between all its members or units." Any crippling up of this distribution of exchange causes unhealthy conditions therein, and any local estop of It causes local paralyzatlon or collapse of life. The atrlkes of our labor unions are such paralyzers In our state and National life, and their disturbing the free exchange of labor and the cornering of labor products by other trusts are causing un healthy conditions therein. No individual of any family, state or na tion has a right to form unions In violation of these natural laws. They Bhould be de clared by law as felons of the worst kind and be punished as such. No other criminal endangers the real welfare and prosperity of our state and National life more than they do. L. FERDINAND FLOSS. Bad Dill Collected By Practical Joker Funny Man's Quip When He Answers to "Wrong Number" on Telephone Re sults In Payment of Account of Long ("landing. THERE are two numbers in the Home telephone directory, ientical as to the figures used, but transposed in their arrangement. One of these is the office of an Insurance agency, the other a meat market. By reason of the similarity of the numbers it happens that the insur ance office is frequently called up when the butcher shop is the one wanted, and vice versa. The Insurance man has a friend who stops at the office pretty regularly and it happens that the frleno Is sometimes left in charge of the establishment when the proprietor is called out on an errand. The friend was left In the office yester day while the insurance man went off to fix up a risk. Between reading the morn ing paper and making jokes with the clerks the friend passed the time agree ably until the automatic rang at his el bow. This is the conversation that en sued: , "Is this so-and-so's meat market?" "Well, what can I do for you?" "I want you to send up at once a fine two-rib roast, and I don't want such tough meat as the last order, either. Do you understand that?" "Oh, very well; just send down that little balance you owe us and we'll see what we can do," and the friend hung up the receiver. During the afternoon one of the stenog raphers told the proprietor about the conversation over the phone in his ab sence. The proprietor knowing that mlxups In numbers had happened before, called up the meat shop and undertook to "square" the "bad break" of his friend, who is a notorious practical jok er. And this Is the conversation that took place between the insurance office and the meat shop: "Is this so-and-so's meat market?" "It is; what can we do for you?" "It's this way. This forenoon when I was out of my office one of my funny friends answered a message that was in tended for you, and I am afraid has of fended one of your customers, as he dunned her for a bill without knowing anything about you or her. I want to explain the whole thing " "Never mind, old fellow; your friend has a two-bit cigar coming to him when ever he will call on me for it. ve been trying to collect a bill from mat woman for three months and y"our friend did the business all right. Thank him for me." TRIES CHRISTIAN SCIENCE Other Doctors and Kemedies Have Failed Richard Mansfield. NEW YORK, Aug. 24. Despairing of being- cured by regular physicians, Richard Mansfield has turned to the Christian Scientists. A healer who has a diploma from Mrs. Eddy's church and vouched for by prominent scientists Is installed at Mr. Mansfield's cottage at Seven Oaks, New London, Conn., having come down with the Invalid actor from Saranac Lake, N. T. During the last four months Mr. Mansfield tried many physicians and many remedies, but bjs condition is no better now than when he left New York for his European trip. He has sought health at the German baths, the English watering places, Canadian resorts, in the Adirondacks, and now he has hopes of finding It .on the shores of Long Island Sound. When he arrived, at his cottage at New London yesterday he was woeful ly weak and ill. He arrived from the Adirondacks In his private car, ac companied by his wife, his brother Felix, and a large retinue of servants. He walked uncertainly, sustained on each side, and indicated by a wan smile his delight at once more being in the town that has for so long been a haven of rest to him. His brother, Felix Mansfield, said to day: "Mr. Mansfield stood the journey ex tremely well and Is better today. He has been up since his arrival inspect ing his home." Felix Mansfield said there is no doubt but Mr. Mansfield will be able to act again. "Why not?" he said. "Mr. Mansfield simply made up his mind that he must take a long vacation, and he is doing the wise thing and taking It. There is no reason to suppose he will not be able to act again."

Xuns Defendants in Civil Suit. ALBANY, Or.. Aug. 29. (Special.) The unusual spectacle of nuns being made the defendants in a legal suit occurred in the State Circuit Court here today. L. L. Walker, through his attorney, L. I Swan, filed suit to quiet title to a large tract of land in Linn County and two of four defendants, who at one time had an interest in the property, were Theresa Hatcher and Gregora Hatcher, both of whom reside In convents. The former lives at Mora, N. M., and the latter at Las Vegas, N. M. a party of several hundred persons at St. -Michael and Nome, won her race and re turned to Seattle today with 482 pas sengers and $SOO,000 worth of bullion. The Pueblo beat the steamship Northwestern on the run and when she sailed homeward-bound from Nome left only four persons in that port who wanted to come out at once. The hard run of the Pueblo Is indicated by the fact that when she arrived at Seattle she had only 60 tons of coal left in her bunkers. The Pueblo made a new record for the round trip by completing the voyage in 17 days. Captain Tom Reilley had been on duty so much when he reached port that his hoots -hud to )w cut from hin AGENT WILL REFUSE CARGO 'eet-He ran ,nt f0y weather the time. However, he transferred to the Umatilla and took her north tonight. TRANSIT LEAVES UP Steamer Proceeds to Portland in Spite of Orders. Vessel Has Shipment of Coal From Karatzu, Japan Notified to Dis charge on Sound, but Starts Vp the Columbia. The Norwegian steamship Transit, from Karatzu, Japan, with a full cargo of coal, arrived in at Astoria yesterday and left up for Portland in the afternoon. Orders had been sent to the vessel di verting her to Puget Sound, but for some reason this order was disobeyed and the steamer started up the river. Agent Stephens, of the Pacific Coast Company, to whom the cargo is consigned, stated that he would not receive the coal on delivery at Portland. The Transit sailed from the Japanese port August 10. She was first scheduled to Victoria, but the destination was changed to the Columbia River shortly before her sailing date. She Is a small craft, measuring only 1067 net tons. With the exception of a sister steamer, the Thordls, the Transit has the only cargo of Japanese coal for the river. There is cow a greater quantity of fuel on the market than can be disposed of handily. The French bark St. Louis Is discharging at the bunkers and the Col. de VUlebois Maureil, with a part cargo will follow her Into the berth. With the arrival of the Transit the question arises, where will the coal be stowed? Chances of a coal famine In Portland this season are remote. There are at least 25 cargoes loading or en route from Newcastle in fuel. The advance guard has arrived and coal ships will be com ing along at frequent intervals for several month's.

Inman, from San Francisco; barkentine Gardiner City, from San Francisco; schooners Manufacturers in Seattle Oppose the Move for Cheaper Westbound Tariffs. SEATTLE, Wash.. Aug. 29. (Special.) An appeal of Pacific Coast lumbermen that commercial bodies on this Coast make a united fight before the Interstate Commerce Commission to procure a re duction of westbound rates, thereby in creasing the amount of loaded cars hauled to the Coast and minimizing losses on empty car haulage, has aroused a storm of opposition among manufac turers. The lumermen's' theory was that if the loads were increased the argument for an advance in rates because of empty ears haulage would be lost. Instead of aiding the lumbermen, man ufacturers are appealing to the Chamber of Commerce to prevent any change in westbound rates. They claim that a re duction in rates will destroy the only ad; vantage Pacific Coast manufacturers have, and if carried out to the extent the lumbermen demand, would put the Pacific Coast manufacturers out of business.

She and her husband were seated In a wagon on North Broad albln street, viewing the parade of Ring li n g Brothers' circus, when the horses Is an ordeal which all women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compares with the pain and horror of child-birth. The thought of the Buffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women have ftund that the use of Mother's Friend during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother end child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial. Not onl? does Mother's Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents "morning sickness," and other dis- comforts of this period. fjf fZfii Sold by aU druggists at JfifflJF g ttmMU p fi.oo per bottle.
