STREETS ONLY QUESTION St. Johns Can Get Free Delivery Now, Declares W. E. Williamson. According to W. E. Williamson. Port land's assistant postmaster, ths only things necessary for St. John to do to get tree mail delivery are to show that It Is within five miles of Portland's city limits, that It has more than 1500 Inhabitants and that It has the re quired amount of Improved streets.

BDURBDNVOTESILLY Senator Cummins Says Demo cratic Advocacy Is Foolish. CHICAGO CAMPAIGN IS ON lows Solon Before Hamilton Clab Warns Republicans to Stand by Party or See Capture of House by Foes. CHICAGO. Oct. 14. The speech making phase of tha Republican Con gresslonal campaign began here to. night when Senator Cummins, of Iowa, speaking under the auspices of tne Hamilton Club, addressed a meeting In Orchestra Hall. The keynote of his OF ALBERT B. CUMMCTS. speech was what he termed the fal 'ary of voting for Democrats when tha only hope of obtaining desired reforms waa to elect Republicans. Democratic Votes Madness. "For the man who In his heart wants to preserve fair and reasonable pro tection for the American wage-earner and the American producer, and who, therefore, wants duties so adjusted that they will measure the difference between the cost of production at home and abroad, and who In his heart ab hors the Democratic fallacy of duties for revenue alone, it would be the ex treme of madness to vote for a Demo cratic candidate for Congress, who, if hs be honest, will rob the court of Its surest safeguard. said Senator Cum mins. "The protest sgalnst excessive du ties haa been made effectually, but we i 'ist not. In the passion of disappoint ment strike a Just principle because ws may not be satisfied with Its present application. The Senator said he had no intention of presenting bouquets to those of his party, however upright, who had dis regarded party principles and misap plied party doctrines. Republicans Are Warned. "TVi all know." he said, "and It is an Inexcusable blunder even to attempt to conceal It. that if every Republican, who feels that we did not revise the tariff In accordance with our party platform, votes the Democratic ticket in November, there will be a Democratic House of Representatives. If every Re publican who feels thst soma of the proposals made by Republican leaders in the last Congress for the regulation of common carriers were reactionary and unfair, records his vote for Demo cratic candidates, then Republican vic tory la impossible." PARK'S STATE INCENSES BROOKLYN CLCB SATS BOARD NEGLECTS IT. Residents Irerul That Ladd's Addi tion Is Improved While Other Tract Is Eyesore, Brooklyn people are up in arms over the treatment they have received from the Park Board.

The tract is deemed the worst eye sore south of Division street. Torn up and disrupted by the removal of the old pumping station. It has remained In that condition for months, while money has been npproprtated by the Park Board for Improvement of the- Sell wood Park and several park blocks in tha tdd Addition. ly promises, say res idents, have been given to fix Brook lyn Park tract. This Is the sum and substance of a complaint made by the Brooklyn Im provement Club. At the last meeting of tha club It was reported by the park committee, of which A. L Keenan la chairman, that another lot of promises had been given, but nothing is being done to put the grounds in respectable condition. A. I Barbur scored tha Park Board for Its neglect of the Brooklyn people. "It Is time that the people of Brook, lrn rose up In mass," declared Mr. Barbur. "and demanded their rights. What have we received? A barn, and promises to Improve our little pirk and not a thing done, although the Park Board agreed to clear the ground and fill It. The water committee removed tha pipe from the tract six months or more ago so the Park Board could fix the park, but nothing is doing there. The board had plenty of money for Ladd's Addition and Sellwood. but nothing for Brooklyn." FARMERS TO FIGHT WEEDS Men of Several Counties in Walla, Walla Valley Plan Action. WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Oct.
