Advisory Conference in Cali

BOSS CONTROL DENOUNCED

Reasserted Business Adminis
tration, Xot Political Odo,
: Wanted, for State.
SANTA BARBARA. Cat. Feb. 7.
(Special.) Coming from as far north
a Yreka and as far south as San Diego
in special trains and cars, nearly 300
stalwart Republicans feathered tonight
in conference with members of the Re
publican State Central Committee.
Without a dissenting' voice they adopt
ed the declaration of principles report
ed by a committee of fifteen, and de
cided to make the campaign in Cali
fornia In the next election standing on
those principles.
The declaration sets forth that the
direct primary law wag enacted by the
lie publican party. The Republican
party stands for the protection of the
rights of all the people and does not
aim to serve any one class, it says.
Business Administration Wanted.
Furthermore, the state needs a busi
ness and not a political administration.
The declaration goes on to show that
the machinery of government of the
so-caHed Progressive party has in
creased the expenses of the state gov
ernment from 19.776,255 in 1909 to $16,
12,783 in 1913. an Increase of $6,347,618,
or 65 per cent, without including any
special appropriations.
In a deunciation of the method nf
the Progressives in conducting the
business of the San Francisco water
front, the report says that in two years
the expense of this branch of the John
eon administration increased 74 per
cent.
The Republican party is declared to
be opposed to boss control. Woman
suffrage was advocated by the Repub
lican party and the party welcomes the
participation of women in its councils
ana in rormlng ot legislation, the
declaration adds. It says the Railr6ad
commission and the supervision of
PUDiic . utilities were given to the
people of California by the Republi
can party. The Republican party be
lieves good roads are a necessity to
the development or the state and ap
proves the proper expenditure of $18,
000,000 to construct such roads.
Conservation by lae favored.
It also believes in the control and
conservation of the natural resources
of the state, but it believes in such
control and conservation by use and
not by prohibition.
It urges the expenditure of funds for
education,, especially in research work
regarding the marketing of products
of the soil, so that the producer will
get the g re test return from his labor
Regarding the study of the causes
which produce crime, - the declaration
says that an Investigation should be
made along these lines, and that pris
ons should be teachers and reformers
of the criminal.
The protective tariff principle is in
dorsed. The declaration holds that a
tariff should be high enough to protect
the wages of the American working
men and that it should be an adequate
protection for citrus fruitgrowers and
those who grow other California prod
ucts. According to the figures on the
importation of lemons from Southern
t-urope the report states that there has
been an increase of 234 per cent in
three months, which is a distinct men
ace to California orchardists and citru,
growers.
Xavy Should Be Adequate.
Regarding universal peace the Re
publican party believes that a policy
should be adopted which will lead to
universal disarmament, but until such
time as this is an accomplished fact
the United States should build enough
warships to maintain its supremacy.
A large proportion of the Navy of the
tnited States should be stationed in
laciftc waters, to protect the Pacific
CoaBt states.
Opening the session, Chairman Gus
tavo Brenner, of San Francisco, sounded
a fighting note, as well c.a a word ot
optimism, by setting forth the regis
tration figures from all parts of the
state. The registration was referred
to In many Instances by speakers in the
course of the afternoon. Senator
AV right, of San Diego, said the figures
showed that in his county the Republi
cans outnumbered the Progressives
eight to one.
Chairman Brenner's speech was
greeted with applause, especially when
he said that the Republican party
would never be bossed by any man
again and that the committee knew no
master but the people. He said the
party had been betrayed, but refused
to be crushed.
All present pledged support to such
candidates as should be selected at the
primary election. Thenearest the con
ference came to taking up the subject
of candidates was when a resolution
T, HPreSentd Prvding that there be
another conference, at which candi
dates should be discussed.
IDLE MEN TO BE VISITED
Civic League and Others to Inspect
Gipsy Smltli Auditorium.
Representatives of the Oregon Civic
League, prominent women and citizens
have planned to visit the Gipsy Smith
auditorium this afternoon, in order to
see for themselves what conditions ex
ist there. Among them will be a num
ber of Portland people who have been
contributing food and other supplies
to the army of men who are eating and
sleeping there.
They will make their visit about
supper time, 4 o'clock, when it is ex
pected some 1600 men will be provided

mobile by C. W. Barzee, so that they
may visit the ranches nearby and solicit
vegetables and fruit from the farmers
The Pacific Telephone & Telegraph
Company has installed a telephone at
the tabernacle, so that those wishing to
contribute supplies of any kind may

tive's desire, seems almost certain to be
Dr. C. J. Smith, of Portland.
The districting plan, as it is believed
to have been decided on by the har
mony trio, will be to appoint a dis
trict deputy for each of the four dis
tricts, and either for the Commission
to appoint each of the 10 under-wardens
or to delegate tills power to the district
deputy, subject to the Commission's ap
proval. Thus tlio shadow that appeared a
week ago becomes a cloud that is a
formidable menace at least to the as
pirations of all the several candidates
for the Democratic nomination other
than Dr. C. J. Smith, on whose can
didacy it may be expected to drop gen
tle showers of political aid and com
fort. Ousting- Mr. Flnley Planned.
Incidentally, 1 is admitted by Dem
ocrats that a portion of the campaign
of political rough-riding Inaugurated
by Governor West through his three
hand-made Commissioners is to force
Game Warden Finley to resign to make
a place for some sterling" Democrat,
or, failing in this, to embarrass Mr.
Finley to such an extent through the
four-district system, with its division
of authority, as to make his official
life anything but one grand, , sweet
song. .'
Details of the districting plan are no
secret, as they have been discussed for
a week among Portland Democrats who
have been "on the inside" as to the
plans of the West-controlled majority
of the Commission

When asked by Receiver Hunt to
open the safe and cabinets, the book
keeper said she could ndt do it until
instructed so to do by Mr. Baker, who
said he could not open the safes until
the return of Secretary F. H. Gloyd.
Mr. Hunt said he had not been able
to locate Mr. Gloyd, all inquiries as to
his whereabouts being answered by the
statement that he would return in
about ten days.
Employes Slow to Leave,
Under the two contracts of January
9 and 23, Mr. Baker says that all the
personal property In and about til
factory became the property of the
Indianapolis company. This includes
all the machinery, dies, tools, unas
sembled machine parts, raw materials
and factory fixtures. The books, he
said, were not included.
Last night Mr. Hunt stayed at the
factory until after 9 o'clock to watt
until all of the old employes had left.
"They hated to go, it eeemed, and
hung- around until the last minute,"
he said. "They had been promised
work by the Indianapolis company, I
heard."
When Mr. Hunt left' the premises
T. J. Merrill, a real estate dealer, was
left in charge of the plant In addition
to the regular night watchman, who
was employed by the Cashier Company.
Mr. Hunt said he did not expect further
trouble, but thought that everything
would be conducted in an orderly man
ner in the future.
Mr. Blrrel Makes Affidavit.
The appointment of James E. Hunt
as receiver for the company was made
yesterday noon by Circuit Judge Ga
tens. An affidavit was filed yesterday
morning by James Blrrel, plaintiff in
the suit gainst the company, setting
forth the events of Friday night and
Saturday morning, when an attempt
was made to load the property of the
company for shipment to Indianapolis.
He stated there were documents, ac
count books, correspondence and other
corporation records that would be re
moved from the state unless taken
into custody by a receiver.
Attorney A. E. Clark, who is con
ducting Mr. Birrei's suit, appeared
fore Judge Gatens shortly after noon
and made no objection to the appoint
ment of Mr. Hunt, who filed a $1000
bond later in the afternoon, but before
he proceeded to the factory to take
possession of the plant and property.
Federal Probe Denied.
As a result of the suit against the
Cashiep Company, la which a receiver
was asked for and an accounting de
manded, reports have been circulated
that the Federal grand jury has started
an investigation of the. operations of
the company, it is supposed with a
view to determining whether the pos
tal laws have been violated in the
management and operation of the con
cern. Assistant United States District
Attorney Johnson denied this yester
day, however.
"The case has not been put before
the grand jury and will not be until
after an investigation has been made,"
said Mr. Johnson. "So far as this of
fice is concerned no investigation is yet
under way. Papers relating to the
case were presented to us by R. A.
Hume a few days ago, but we have not
yet had time to look them over. I do
not know whether or not an investiga
tion will bo made and one will not be
started by us unless there is some ap
parent reason for one."

Governor West
egraphed President Wilson that the
contemplated action of separating: the
lines would be harmiul to the business
Interests ot the state, and &e1fAil that

could be held. The State Railway Com
mission made a similar request and
J. N. Teal, of Portland, who is en
route to Washington in the interest of
the Chamber of Commerce, has been
asked by the Governor and the Com
mission to make a protest to the Presi
dent and the Attorney-General against
the separation of the lines. The tele

CHICAGO, Feb. 7. '(Special.) With
practically all the country suffering
unusual cold, Chicago was saved from
zero weather by the influence, of Lake
Michigan, which has not been ex
tremely cold all Winter, although ice
extends out as- far as the eye can see.
The fierce cold wave which swept
East and South from British Columbia
brought zero and sub-zero weather
generally. The coldest section of the
Nation was a strip running north and
south through the Eastern Dakotas,
Iowa and. Missouri.
The Texas panhandle. Oklahoma and
Arkansas were swept by the cold wave
today and its influence is being felt in
Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf
Coast states. Some of the localities

Grand Forks, N. D., 36 below; Duluth,
18, with prospects of 25 below tonight;
Mitchell, S. !., 25 below: Sioux City,
la., 16, and St. Louis 4 below. Dallas,

degrees colder than Chicago. Commis
sion merchants were fearful today that
great damage would be done to vege
table and other crops in the Southwest.
Corpus Christ!, Tex., reported 32 de
grees above, which means the straw
berry crop is in dire peril.
Central Illinois felt the force of the
storm much more severely than did the
northern part. Champaign, 111., reported
the first robin of the season. Northern
Indiana had two feet of snow and bit
ter cold weather is settling over the
district tonight
In Kansas City a man was found
frozen to death on his doorstep, with
the temperature at six below. In the
same city one of the features of the
cold wave was the appearance at the
police station of a blind man leading
an alligator and seeking refuge from
the storm. ,
Milwaukee was hit by a fierce bliz
