SSSP 1 ADVISORY BOARDS HELP President Burgess In Annual Ad dress Counsels Thelf Appoint ment Where They Do Not 'Ex- 1st Coyote Question Vp. THE DALLES. Or., Nov. 12. (Spe cial.) The tenth annual convention of the Oregon Woolgrowers' Association con vened in this city thi3 morning with over UK) delegates from the neighboring coun ties where sheepralslnsr Is the paramount Industry. Many familiar faces of wool iprowers who in years past marketed their clips In this city have been in evi dence today, and everywhere present was seen the yellow badge of ' the association. Time was when The Dalles was the trad-ingr-point of all these masters of the wool Industry who now haul their crops to Shaniko, Pendleton, Heppner and Con don. ' " " The first session of the convention opened In the assembly rooms of the Com mercial Club, this morning at 10 o'clock, President J. N. Burgess calling the meet ing to order, and John Gavin, of the Business Men's Association, delivering the speech of welcome on behalf of the city. The rooms were crowded with delegates and friends' of the sheep men, who lis tened with keenest Interest to the de liberations of the. woolgrowers. Growth of the Association. The report of the secretary and treas urer, Dan P. Smythe, of Pendleton, showed more clearly than argument could have brought forth the strides which the association has made during the past year, the moneys received and disbursed as well as the large number -of new 'members admitted, evidencing the sub stantial character of the work accom plished. This report showed that eight county associations ' are now affiliated with the state association "and are co operating with It in its various lines ot progress. The appointment of committees was then taken up, the committee on reso lutions being as follows: J. W. Fisher, Waco County; J. M. Cameron, Gilliam County: Frank Elder, Morrow County; P. Rellly, Crook County; M. J. Ftnlay son, Sherman County; l. G. Warner, Umatilla County; J. G. Hoke, Baker County; L. V. Stewart, Grant .County; S. B. Chandler, Lane County; Tl'. Rosen baum, WJieeler County. Address of the President. . .President Burgess' address was an able one, touching upon the questions to come before the convention and the Importance of earnest consideration regarding the benefits of advisory boards and public land leasing. He said: 'We of the Blue Mountain Reserve di vision have received many benefits from our advisory boards, whose suggestions have Invariably been accepted by Mr. Pot ter, who . has promfsed that changes should not be made In that reserve with out tlrst consulting the advisory board. "I would suggest," said President Burgess, "to the sheepmen grazing- in different reserves, where you have-not already an advisory board, meet- and ap point one. If your membership does not entitle you to this privilege, rustle and (tot all the sheepmen In your locality in terested, and you will be recognized both t your home office and in Washington. "The administration favors the leasing of the public domain and this Is a matter .upon which this body should take action. Personally I favor the leasing proposition, provided It can be done along right lines, but I am not in favor of placing our vast vranges in charge bf one man and being ?ompe!led to go against a good deal of red tape in the handling of the forest re serves." The Coyote Question. In speaking of coyote ravages amg flocks he said: "The coyotes are becom ing more numerous than ever before. A conservative estimate of the loss of sheep by these animals In Eastern Oregon dur ing the past year is at least $260,000, which does not include the loss of colts, calves and poultry, which will aggregate yearly as much more. me mode of exterminat ing them should be agreed upon. Then we should take up this proposition with the National Woolgrowers' Association In an endeavor to get the adjoining states to adopt like measuies. i "Through the efforts of this association there was passed at the last session of the Legislature a law providing 'or the eradication of scab and quarantine against foreign sheep. This law, as you all know, has been a great benefit to the sheepnen of the state. Our sheep quar antine is raised and there is less scab in Oregon today than there has been during the past 25 years. The sheep-owners in the state of Washington are contesting our quarantine law, - the- case being at present in court and attorneys have been secured by the sheepmen to assist in fighting this case." ' Attendance at National Convention. President Burgess urged that all mem bers of the association who could do so should attend meetings of the National Association, arguing that only by so doing would Oregon become a'recognized factor In the workings of the National body. Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Arizona, Utah "and New Mexico yearly send large dele gations making up a convention of some 1500 members, while Oregon at most had sent about a dozen delegates to a single convention. 1 Among the prominent sheepmen in at tendance at the convention, are H. C. Rooper. T. McRae. S. B. Chandler. Dr. S W. McClure. A. A. Cole, L. D. Swick, R. Rosenbaum, B. B. Moors, M. J. Flnlayson, I. C. Moore. F. McRae, L. Sweek, F. Ga hel. F. Elder. .T. '5. Hamilton..

SAME OLD PARDON SHOWN Defense in Caleb Powers Case Again Offers Document. GEORGETOWN,-Ky.. Nov. 12. When the case ot Caleb Powers, charged with the murder of former Governor Will iam E. Goebel, of Kentucy, was called today it was found that many of the important defenses witnesses who were absent yesterday, and caused the postponement of the trial, were pres ent, and Commonwealth Attorney Franklin, after the rollcall of Ahe wit-' nesses. promptly announced ready. As( soon as this announcement was made, Major Owens, chief counsel for Powers, arose and said: - "Before the defense; answers today, we desire to offer, as a plea of abate ment, the pardon given the defendant by Governor W. S. Taylor after the commission of the crime." Upon the request of Commonwealth Attorney Franklin this document was. turned over to the prosecution, whore tired to examine It. " This is the same pardon which has been produced- at all the former trials, and which the courts have held invalid. Judge Morris overruled tlie'motion for permission to file the plea and pardon, after a vigorous objection by the pros ecution, the court holding that the validity of the pardon was not within the jurisdiction of the court, as the .Court of Appeals had already passed upon that question. The defense, how ever, scored ' a point in securing per mission to make a,vowal of the pardon, thus getting that document into the record over the .emphatic objection of the prosecution, which was allowed its exceptions. Considerable, argument was exchanged on this point, and then court adjourned until 2 o'clock, when the avowal, with the proof, was filed. Defied Sherlfr With Gun. HOQL'IAM, Wash.," Nov. 11.

Other Contests Do Xot Count and If This Game Is Won, Tigers Will Be "Champions" Compara-" tive Strength of the Teams. . PRINCETON. N. J., Nov. 12. (Special.) In the Eastern colleges football inter est centers around the big games to an extent almost inconceivable to Western ers. Schedules are arranged solely with the end of getting the best possible train ing out of the early-season or .practice games. If a minor college becomes too strong it will have.'difticulty in getting on tho schedules of Harvard, Yale, Princeton', Pennsylvania or Cornell. No obligation is felt to play neighbors or to achieve championships. For In stance, Princeton never plays Rutger's, Pennsylvania, Haverford or Swarthmore, the four nearest colleges, and although already defeated by Cornell, a banner in scribed "Championship Team" will be hung In the trophy-room if the Tigers beat Yale. The triumph of Cornell over Princeton is passed over lightly, owing to Princeton's failure to play early season games that furnished opposition. The defeat of Carlisle is cheering to Princetonians, because it makes proba ble a victory over the hated Elis. Tho purpose of football here is to beat Yale.. The traditional adversary to bet on the other games Is investment; on the big game It is well nigh a duty, and no amount of faculty moralizing seems able to diminish the evil. With the Yale-Princeton game only five days away, all the football prophets are busy with speculation, while the coaches are putting the finishing touches on the teams. Yale is lying low and hammering away on the work of perfecting her line. The Elis will have a corking back Held, two first-class quarterbacks in Jones and Dines, an ail-American fullback in Coy, and the choice of several good halves. They have all the varieties in speed, foxi ness, punting, drop-kicking and line bucking. The ends are -only '. fair, but they will do. . X The Yale men do not, possess the line power of Cornell, the dashing versatility of PrlncSton, or the dazzling speed with which the Indians overwhelmed Harvard; bnt when it comes to the straight, hard football team work and last-ditch fight ing, there is' no combination that can beat them. Princeton will, win or lose as she succeeds or fails in stopping Yale's slashing bucks through tackle and cen ter. .. The sons -of old Nassau are aware of these facts and a swarm .of coaches is hammering away at eight husky candi dates, for the tackle and guard positions. From these they hope to select four who can stand the Yale test. Phillips is a fixture at center; Wistor and Brown are perhaps the best ends In the country but three men do hot constitute a whole line. The hope is that those who finally play at guard and tackle will be able to outplay their Yale opponents. Captain McCormlck at fullback and Eddie Dillon at quarter need no 'com ment. Harlen Is the most versatile kicker on any of the big teams. He is a dangerous man for the opposing team at all stages of the game. Tibbett, the other halfback, is a wiry fellow and a sprinter of more than, ordinary ability. There are good substitutes for every man but McCormlck. The Princeton defense is stubborn. The team will hang .together and fight harder as defeat looms up. The men seem to have solved the problems of meeting the. plays which the new : rules have evolved. . Princeton is most determined to defeat Yale, and will probably do so. THE BASIS FOR CREDIT Its Abuse Responsible for Present Money Flurry, Says Mr. Myers. PORTLAND. Nov. 12. (To Ihe Editor.) It Is plain enough that the approximate causes of j.he present financial troubles ara plunging, speculation and extravagance verywhere, with a certain mixture of down right dishonesty and piracy. But back of all this, is the moth or cause, and this Is "abuse of credit." Credit Is the starting; point Of ell our financial troubles and misfortunes. If men were compelled everywhere and always to earn a dollar before they could spend one. or get -hold of it through any confidence game they could Invent, all financial trou bles would be at an end, and all opportuni ties to rob the patient, faithful public would be destroyed. Credit gives the extravagant man and he plunger and enthusiast, op portunity and hold upon the public, and credit also opens up the chanoe for the de liberate scoundrel to practice his craft. - Credit has Us place in the affairs of men, but its true use has been lost sight of In abuses, and in the mad rush for the unreal and the extravagant. There has been too much' credit everywhere. The law of the real world in that "ready pay," "pay down. "pay-as-you-go," Is better than a promise to pay when your ship comes in. No man can wear so serene a smile through a financial crash, as he who is out of debt, and ha pa. wasteful or extravagant habits. ' - - . . LEVI W. MYERS.' $ n m r Schooner Clears -With Lumber.
