County Judge Cleeton and fnmmi..inn,r noddard one one l"uuj side, and the War Department and Major Mrlndoe. of the Army Corps of Engineers, on the other. When Judge Cleeton and Commis sioner Goddard took the position that there were unreasonable delays la closing the draws to permit mobility of congested traffic, particularly morn ing and night, when residents of the East Side were going to and from work, and backed up their opinion with a per emptory order to regulate the draws to accommodate overhead traffic. Major Mclndoe took a firm stand against the order In behalf of steamboatmen and waa backed up by War aepartment regulations. Major Mclndoe Intimated that the aubject would be taken before the Federal courts and the aummonses served on the steamboat men are con sidered to mean that he has caused such a step to be taken. It Is -said that literal construction of navigation laws holds Judge Cleeton. Commlsslorer Goddard and the bridge tenders guilty of certain Infractiona. no matter what their motives may have been. A report was circulated yester day that the grand Jury might return Indictments against the County Judge, the County Commissioner and others.

"NICE MEN" ARE CRITICISED qeorgla Woman Orator Insists Those Who Favor Saloons Are Lined Vp With Baser Elements of Society State Tour Made. Mrs. Mary Harris Armor, the "whirl wind campaigner of Georgia," who was brought to Oregon by the w. C. T. U. to assist In the campaign to make this stte "dry." arrived yesterday from a . , . ... . . Va t.a ten oayi speaKin iuur wi Mrs. Armor will begin a series-of seven speeches in Portland tomorrow night In the First Methodist Episcopal Church. Mrs. Armor id rang Into prominence about five yeara ago. when ahe was president of the Georgia w. x. u.. by making a sensational and rather anectacular aneech before the Georgia Legislature. Since that time ahe hae been called upon by tne w. j. i. u. m all mrii of the United States to assist In "dry" campaigns. There Is nothing about her appearance to inaicaie ws hidden powers of oratory with which aha Is credited. She has a broad southern accent, and speaks more rap Idly than Mary Ellen Lease, yet her pronunciation Is distinct and she does not lose a syllable. She Is argument ative In everything she says, and drives her points Ip rapid-fire order. She does not use statistics, nor.aoes io uwon upon her views of prohibition to any irreat extent. Her conversation con sists largely of combatting assertions of the "wets. "nrrton is going 'dry.' " declared Mrs. Armor emphatically yesterday. "I can read human nature, ana I Know that this state is going 'dry.' Before I leave Portland I ' am going after tne Greater Oregon Home Rule Associa tion. These 'nice' men in tne nomo Rule Association are lined up with tne liquor men, they are lined up with the crooks, the dlvekeepers. tneir associ ates are bad. and I shall prove It. When they stand for the saloon tney stand for all that Is depraved, ror ae baucbery and crime. No burglar, nor thief, nor a-ambler. nor bum. win voie for prohibition. WhyT Because tney want the saloon, and these 'nice' men are lined up with them. They must do lined up with them If they stand for the saloon. YOU can t reason n any other way. Mra.
