BOSTON, Nov. 1 One of the most
spirited, as well as one of the shortest
campaigns n Massachusetts politics,
was practically closed tonight with
four of the seven candidates for Gov
. rnTi j decLaring- themselves confident
of "'Victory. There will be .decided also
contests for the remainder' of the suite
officers and the Legislature. The lat
' 'tot, now Republican, is now the 'object
of a strong' Democratic attack.
The contest for Governor Is an un
usual one. There have been- upsets In
all the parties. First it was the Re
publicans. Colonel Everett C. Benton,
an old soldier in the cause, announced
early his desire to be a candidate for
Governor. As the chances then fa
vored the election of a Democrat, the
nomination looked sure for Benton un
til Representative Gardner, son-in-law
of United States . Senator Lodge,
Jumped in and said he wanted to be
the Republican standard-bearer. Nomi
nations are now made In this state by
primaries, and after a. somewhat
heated canvass Gardner won.
Gardner Cute Loose.
Gardner began his campaign for elec
tion by cutting; loose, from the state
committee and enrolling the services
of others because the state chairman
refused to reBign and the state con
vention adopted a platform upon which,
be says, he cannot and will not stand.
. The mixup In the Democratic ranks
Is of a different nature. For weeks
no one could find out whether Gov
ernor Foss wanted to run again. Da
vid I. Walsh, Lieutenant-Governor,
while Fobs was wanting to make up
his mind, let It be known that he
wanted the nomination of the Demo
crats. He won it, and the administra
tion Is supporting' him with all the
power at Its command.
The machine wanted Richard R.
Long, a wealthy shoe manufacturer
and ex-Republican, for Lieutenant-

BOY'S LIFE SAVED
BY FAMILY DOG
ABERDEEN 3-TEAR-OLD RES
CUED FROM WATERY GRAVE.
Incoming Tide Beaten by Canine,
Which Uses Headwork. in Carry
ing Small Master to Shore.
ABERDEEN, Wash.. Nov. l.ri. Spe
cial.) Precipitated in the chilly waters
of the slough near hia home, three-year-old
Davis Ross, son of Mr. and
Mrs, Samuel Ross, would no doubt
havo been drowned yesterday had it
not been for the prompt action of a
bird dog owned by Mr. Ross. The
dog's affection for the lad prompted
the action.
When a servant left the lad for a
moment the child set forth on a tour
of exploration, finally bringing up at
the slough. He leaned too far over,
lost his equilibrium and fell into the
water. Like a flash the dog, who
stood near his little master, .sprang Into
the water grasped the arm of the
youngster and started for the shore.
The tide was rather, swift and the
animal, realizing that he was making
slow headway, let go, and, getting be
hind the child, stuck his nose under
the little fellow's shoulder and shoved
for all that was in him.
The servant arrived In time to pick
the boy from the bank.

DAYS FOR MURPHY DISMAL
Man Who Rudely Ignored Sugges
tion It Was Bad Policy to Im
peach Sulzer Xow Believed to
Be "on Run" In Gotham.
BY LLOYT P. LOSERflAS.
NEW YORK, Oct. SI. (Special.) In
many respects the city campaign now
drawing to a fevnrisn close, greatly re
sembles the one of four years ago.
In 1909, Tammany was conceded on
all sides to have a walkover. At the
last moment, William Randolph Hearst
introduced himself, headed a ticket of
his own and elected the. fusion nomi
nees outside of .Gaynor, who was more
of a trial than a comfort to Tammany.
Up to the day that William Sulzer
was nominated for the Assembly, Tam
many had everything Its own way. Now
Tammany Is on the run. and the bet
ting Is as high, as 4 to 1 that Mitchel
will be elected. Bets are made at even
money that he has 60.000 plurality and
4 to 3 that he has 40,000. Fusion money
was plentiful. with few Tammany
takers.
It Isn't the personality of Sulzer that
counts. It is not the bitter speeches of
John A. Hennessey, his faithful lieu
tenant, that Is deciding things. It is
the 'fact that the Tammany issue has
been brought clearly to the front for
the first time.
John Purroy Mitchel, who 'in all
probability will be the next Mayor, is
not popular. He is disliked for him-
4iclf'8waeialso tor w f-rejai.4i ias
made, such as Hearst and the chirping
Bird, chief of the Progressives. Just
the same Mitchel will get the votes.
Had Mayor Gaynor lived, he would
have been svept Into office. Now
Mitchel, whom Gaynor frankly detest
ed, is his political heir.
These are dark and dismal days for
Murphy. He Is always intolerent of
advice, and rudely Ignored suggestions
that it was bad policy to Impeach Sul
zer. Later, when the organization was
committed to the fight, some of the
bright men in Tammany proposed that
Sulzer be barred from off iceholdlng In
the future. Murphy replied, it is said,
that it would seem like persecution,
adding that anyhow Sulzer would never
be on a ticket again. So Sulzer was
kicked out of "The People's House,"
and bobbed up the next day on tho offi
cial ballot. ' '
Sulzer will be elected to the Assem
bly. The Jews of New Xork are con
vinced that Sulzer is a martyr for their
sakes and they are going to vindicate
him. Go down in his district and you
will find that nine out of ten men you
meet on the street are shouters for
Sulzer. Try to argue with them. Tell
them that the Judges of the Court of
Appeals found him guilty, that eight of
them voted to remove him, while Chief
Justice Cullen, the only other mem
ber, was excused from voting. The
answer you probably will get will be:
"Maybe Sulzer took home some
money, but he didn't steal it from the
people. Murphy did not put him out
for that reason. Sulzer would not let
Murphy rob us, that is why he was
persecuted."
Then they will go on and cite the
case of Senator Stillwell, of the Bronx.

Lavishly - Displayed.
Clarke ' County. Washington, and
Multnomah County, Oregon, Joined yes
terday In a great oemonstratlon In
Portland, which marked the culmina
tion of the campaign which has been
waged throughout the latter county In
support of the proposed bond Issue for
the interstate bridge fund, which Is
to be voted on at the election Tuesday.
The demonstration took the form of
a great popular parade through the
streets of the city in the afternoon
and a banquet and rally under the aus
pices of the North Portland Commer
cial Club at the garage at Killings
worth and Alblna avenues in the eve
ning. Bond Popularity Manifest.
Notwithstanding the fact that no ap
peal was made by the offer of prizes to
bring out participants in the parade
and the actual funds in the hands of
the committee in charge of the parade
wera nil, the popularity of the meas
ure and the public interest in the dem
onstration were manifested by the turn
ing out for the parade of nearly 250
automobiles and other vehicles, bear
ing about 1800 people from Oregon and
Washington, who seized the opportunity
to put themselves on record before the
publlo as favoring the bridge bonds.
Nearly every commercial and civlo or
ganization in the city was represented
In line, and Southwestern Washington
sent a delegation that took up almost
half the line.
George L. Baker was chairman of
the parade committee, and with' him on
the committee were: J. L. Meier, G.
M. Hyland, M. G. Winstock, J. -'Ted Lar
son, J. H. Nolta, R. H. Brown, R. G.

shal and his two first assistants were
R. H. Brown and J. E. Appleby.
Each District Has Section.
The parade formed in several sec
tions, but the main 'visions were two.
The North Portland ar I Southwestern
Washington contingents formed orig
inally under the direction of jur. Brown
at Union avenue and Kllllnsworth and
moved thence to the east approach of
the Broadway bridge, where they wait
ed the signal to start. The other di
vision was formed in half a dozen sec
tions on the West Side, heading Into
Broadway near the bridge.
Tho march began sharp at 2 o'clock
and, as the head of the line swung into
Broadway, a motorcycle policeman was
dispatched across the bridge to summon
the East Side division. One by one the
different sections turned into Broad
way and when the van of the East Side
division Joined the line the great pa
rade stretched far up Broadway almost
to Columbia, where the first turn in
the line of march was made.

Oregon women have a perfect right

"I think Mr. Flnley has overstepped

. In a. recent New York trade paper
the following article appeared:
"The opinion was freely expressed
in the trade this morning that the
customs Inspectors, who, according to

of women passengers on incoming

exceeded their authority under the new

V The officers of the State Fish and

streets.

on tie streets now, but plenty may be

AMATEUR CONVICT
DECRIED II PRISON
Real Felons Think Ex-
. periment Futile.
EXPERIENCE LACKS REALITY
Osborne's Trip to Ceil With
String Tied On Minimized.
'VAIN REGRET" NOT THERE
Paper Published by "Bona Klde"
Convicts Says Xothlng Was As
certained That Observation
Would Not Reveal.
ATLANTA. Ga., Nov. 1. The efforts
of Thomas M. Osborne, who served a
self-imposed sentence at Auburn prison
to learn at first hand the psychological
effect of penitentiary life among the
prisoners, was characterized today as
well-meant, but futile. In an article In
Good Words, the paper printed in the
Atlanta Federal prison.
This article under the heading "An
Amateur Convict," said Mr. Osborne's
trip to prison with a string tied to him
self was both estimable and enter
taining, and that he deserves credit for
directing attention to prison problems.
The article adds, however, that "al
though this penitentiary Columbus
really may have gained some ideas
about physical Influences in Jail, he
really got no deeper than the surface
of the Influences in which all bona fide
convicts must live."
Real Life Not Dn plica ted.
It Is pointed out that Mr. Osborne
undertook his self-imposed hardship
fortified by the excellency ' of his mo
tives and a contemplation of the plaud
its he undoubtedly would earn through
his martyrdom.
"That." Good Words says, -im the
main obstacle which prevented him
from attaining his object, for real con
victs have no such support or encour
agement." The article calls attention to the
fact that the prisoner who at the end
of his term slinks out into the world
with a IS bill in the pocket of his prison-made
clothes has no applauding
public waiting to "crown him with
wreaths of reform and humanitarlan
tsm." The convict has not the comfort of
meditation upon present heroism or fu
ture renown.
Valjx Iteffreta Are Companions.
"The only companions of the real
prisoners' solitude." the article contin
ues, "are vain regrets for the past,
shame and humiliation at the treatment
to which he is bound in prison and
dread of the prospect of disgrace and
persecution which await him when he
goes back to the world."
Mr. Osborne, the article says, never
will know anything of prison life which
he might not Just as well have learned
as an observant visitor. The secret of
seeing prisons through a prisoner's
eyes. It is pointed out, cannot be hand
ed from one person to another at will.
"It will take root only in prepared
soil and Mr. Osborne's mind is a kind
of loam that will take a great deal of
fertilizing before becoming available."
says the article.
Ideas Those of Prisoners.
Hope Is expressed that good will
come to Mr. Osborne's experiment, and
It is suggested that if Judges and prose
cutors were obliged to qualify by
spending a term in prison no longer
than that of Mr. Osborne, "Justice and
decency In administration of criminal
law would be greatly advanced."
