Democratic candidate for the Presidential nomination, held a campaign meeting In the Springfield arsons I Friday. He expressed faith In the ability of the American people to govern themselvea and said that In taking the attitude he did In the Sen atorial fight in New Jersey he was merely complying with the majority Instructions of the people. The people of Illinois were congratu lated on having a Presidential primary law. He said the day of "personally conducted" government by self-appointed trustees had passed, and pre dicted that the Chicago and Baltimore conventions would be the last of their kind: that henceforth the people of ail the states would have a more di rect voice In the nomination of Presi dential candidates. In referring to the fact that United States Senator Stone was to speak In , SpringflId last night. Goernor Wilson interred senator Mon naa oeen sem for In an effort to counteract the ef fect of the Wilson meeting, and by In ference he charged William Randolph Hearst with being responsible. Gov ernor Wilson said that Senator Stone was sent for to come to Springfield last night, "as an antidote for the poi son I was to distribute," and added: The chemist who compounded this particular antidote owns a great many newspapers throughout the United States. It has been his particular pleas ure to destroy, so far as he could, the reputation of every man who spoke for the Democracy of the United States." He said charges by Senator Stone that he had not voted for Bryan In lituo and that he did not vote at all In 1U8 were falsehoods, "sworn to by gentlerrren who were willing to swear anything." He said he voted the whole Democratic ticket In both those years, and added: "I never voted anything but the Democratic ticket." LOW WATER CAUSES BLAST Boiler Nearly Dry When Locomotive Explodes Near Yoncalla. Low water In the boiler was the cause of the fatal locomotive explosion on the sloulhern Pacific, near Yoncalla. Thursday afternoon in which William Bartlett. engineer, and A. S. Aderton. fireman, lost their lives, according to the findings of the board of Inquiry summoned Friday at the scene of the wreck. D. W. Campbell, general superintend ent of the Southern Pacific, returned last night from Tillamook and. re ceived detailed reports of the accident caused by the boiler of a freight en gine tearing loose from the frame with destructive results. Although the men who were in position to know the ex act cause are dead, Mr. Campbell be lieves the findings of the bosrd cor rect. The report that the engine had been condemned Is ridiculous, he says, as every engine In the service under goes Inspection regularly. Officials of the railroad would be subject to fine and Imprisonment were they to al low condemned locomotives to remain In commission. This particular engine was turned out of the Roseburg shops after complete inspection and repairs March . DEPOSITORS TO EYE CASE lleport of Defunct Commercial Bank Committee to Be Heard. VANCOUVER.

BRITISH POLICE INSURED "Bobbles" Fear Assault by Suffra gettes, Tnrn to Lloyds. LONDON. April C. (Special.) As the old nlav said. 'The policeman's life is not a happy one." In England today they- are liable to such Injury at the hands of rebellious suffragettes and strikers that many Insurance policies have been taken out at Lloyds to cover their possible disablement. All the, ordinary policies are being issued with this clause: -warranico free of loss or damage caused by strikers, locked-out workmen, or per sons taking part In labor disturbances or riot or civil commotion." Not only are the police being so covered, but storekeepers and brewers are Insuring their teamsters and the wagons on which they deliver provisions and beer. The rates vary widely for different dis. tricta. I-ondon grocery stores are In sured against looting and damage at 1 percent, but In South Wales the rate Is 21. Very likely there will be a wide ex tension of this Insurance shortly, for the solidarity of the labor world is be ing put to a severe test by the mone tary conditions of the present time. The miners openly declare that the conces sion of the minimum wage will be fol lowed by demands for a 10 per cent general Increase on the payroll: while the men In other Industries, encouraged by the mining holdup, and at the same time goaded by the soaring cost of liv ing, are growing restive to a perilous degree. FARMER DOPED WITH GUM Poisoned Confection and $10,000 Draft Figure In Horse Race. s SI-OKANE. Wash.. April . (Spe cial.) Two sticks of "poisoned tfiim" and a draft for 110.000 figured promi nently In a remarkable tale related to Justice O. W. Stocker In Police Court this afternoon by H. A. Bralnard, a wealthy farmer of Garwood. Idaho. It was while under the Influence of "poisoned gum." Bralnard told tho po lice, that he signed ths draft which was to be bet on a horserace and to return htm a fabulous sum. Bralnard's next recollection was of finding him self In the hands of the police, who had gathered" in hla two companions on a tip from the proprietress of a rooming-house, where tho transaction is said to have occurred. As a result of Brainard's story the two men, giving their names as R. B. Dean and William King, were bound over to the Superior Court under 15000 bonds, on a charge of gambling.

The case went to the Jury late yesterday.-' BRITISH ATHLETICS SAVED Americans Supply Funds for Stock- - holm Olympiad Meet. LONDON. April . (Special.) But for the generosity of one or two Amer icans In coming to the aid of the ath letic authorities In England, the nti mercal strength of the British repre sentatives at the Stockholm Olympiad would have to be seriously curtailed. Young Waldorf Astor. M. P. and A1-' fred G. Vsnderbllt came forward at a crucial moment and saved the situa tion for the British athletes. If It had not been for these donors of rich con tributions, many competitors would have to be satisfied with displaying their athletic qualities In ths obscurity of local playing fields in England In stead of the Stockholm Stadium. The funds at the disposal of the British Olympic Council were really sufficient to put the full strength for ward, but this. would have meant an entire depletion of their banking ac count, leaving no margin for organizing future meetings. A public appeal for money was not considered dignified or politic in face of the fact that such an expedient had to be resorted to on the occasion of the British Olympiad in 190S. This lack of funds causes the Brit ish Olympic Council to feel that ath letics cannot flourish much longer in England If the government does not see Its way to make an annual grant for their assistance, so after the Stock holm gathering It Is proposed to ap proach the British Treasury with an appeal. The decisive defeat of English box ing champions recently by Frenchmen has convinced the British Olympic Council that English athletes require training on more scientific lines If they are to hold their own among the world's competitors. JAPAN WILL BE WARNED TAFT REPLY TO LODGE UESOLTJ TIOX WILL BE FOIXTED. Delicacy of Situation Indlcuted by Secrecy Surrounding Magda Icna Bay Affair. WASHINGTON. April 6. (Special.) President Taffs reply to the Senate on the Magdalena Bay resolution will an nounce a policy that will be a warning to Japanese to keep hands off the ter ritory In Lower California along the shores of the Pacific. The reply, it Is said, was framed at a long conference at the White House by the President and Senator Lodge the author of the resolution. The Cabinet meeting fol lowed. Tho warning will be diplomatic but worded In such terms that the Japanese government and other European powers with envious eyes on Mexico will not misunderstand. President Taft and Senator Lodge went over the papers In the Magdalena Bay situation the State Department having sent all its data to tho Presi dent. The President's response will go to the Senate in executive session, which Indicates the delicacy of the situation. The Senate may make its communication to .the President later to make clear the status of the Japa nese negotiations and let the Japanese and the world know where this Gov ernment stands. Nothing to cause trouble between this country and Japan is expected. It is understood that Senator Lodge believes his resolution has served Its purpose and that the negotiations of a Japa nese syndicate to acquire an enormous tract on Magdalena Bay have been withdrawn. The Lodge resolution, according to a member of the Senate foreign rela tions committee, grew out of the knowledge that a company composed largely of Japanese was on the eve of purchasing 4,000,000 acres of land, the title of which is held by a Mexican corporation known as the Charter Com pany of Lower California incorporated in Maine, with New England stock holders.

REPUBLIC MAY TOTTER French Critic Thinks China Better With an Emperor. Paris Letter. M. d'Ollone. a distinguished French officer, who is estimated a first-rate authority about things Chinese, passes in the Gaulols a most pessimistic Judg ment about the durability ot me repuo llcan constitution of China. He re minds us that It Is a palpable error to suppose a lack of changeableness as Inherent In the Chinese race. As a matter of fact. China is the very scene of constant revolutions and Incessant transformations. Thus It is increainie that the newly-founded Chinese repub lic should be of any duration. The only chance for a lasting order of things the gallant officer sees in the pOSSIble SUCCeSS OI IUn fin ma is. in .& COUp a eiax OJ nun i cm Kal would make himself Emperor and found a new dynasty pr his aescena ants. " In this case the political devel opment of China would be brought on a more soua ioonns. n. uuwoci, hv no means ImposslDie, nis amoi- tious plans would end with his sssassl natlon. perfect anarchy would reign in the Celestial Empire for a long time. and an Intervention of the powers might appear unavoidaDie. m. a uuone Is of opinion that neitner as a icuer atlve state nor as National body poli n. o renuhllc of China could have any prospect of durability, for republican nstitutlons are incompaiioie wnu n's genius of the Chinese. However tnat may dp, n is ceruiun significant that a Frenchman of repub lican proclivities hns very little confi dence in the republic recently estab lished in the Far East.

Jonathan Peate, a Leeds manufacturer, offered to let the local Socialists have the use of a mill freo if they would demonstrate, the practical utility of their theories by running a manufac turing concern of their own, and a similar offer was made by Alderman George Hirst, of Batley. Neither offer has been accepted. . "Alderman Ben Turner, the general secretary of the Weavers' and Textile Workers' Union, announced publicly that he would accept my offer," said Mr. Peate, "but I have heard nothing from him. and I do not expect that I ever shall.

"I offered to give him a five years' lease on the place immediately, but the only answer ha would give was that he would consult his colleagues and see what could be done. It will all end In smoke."

Many Girls Seek Husbands. There has been a pronounced dispo sition of late years to welcome the girl baby In domestic circles In these islands for the happy parents to pre tend, elaborately, that they would rather have her than a boy. She is given a magnificently simple name, such as Elizabeth or Ann, and becomes at once, and for the first few years ot her life, a very prominent personage in the household. Unfortunately the enthusiasm which welcomes her. birth does not last. When Elizabeth arrives at a marriageable age her parents discover with dismay that there are thousands of other Elisabeths, A STORE WHERE MA' Vmm FAMILY LIQUOR STORE We note advertisements of many cheap wines of inferior quality, especially Port Wine, which is used for Medicinal Purposes and is a most efficient tonic when perfectly p"Ure, being mildly stimulating and invigorating.

And while the boys are making their way in America, India, Australasia and South Africa, to say nothing of Egypt and our Crown Colonies, their sisters are all kept at home, passiag their lives playing hockey and golf, and practicing economies over their dress. Now, the obvious remedy for this parlous state of things is that the girls must emigrate as well as the boys. Every son sent out from an English house should take a sister with him. who would be started In life by her parents in the same way as her brother. It is natural that a young girl, care fully guarded and sheltered, shrinks from setting out, alone, to cross thou sands of miles of ocean and to buffet for herself when she arrives. Yet go ing out with a brother would be looked on as a pleasant adventure, and, more over, you have in this way the nucleus of a settlement of educated English people.
