A . u HENEY HARD AFTER FULTON PItOSECUTING ATTORNEY RE ITERATES HIS CHARGES AGAINST OREGON SENATOR JN SPEECH AT, PORTLAND SAYS HE IS LAST OF OLD MACHINE UPHOLDS PRIMARY. PORTLAND, April 1G. Franfcls J. Honey, who came from San Fran cisco for the purpose, delivered ''good government" addresses be fore large audiences here, speaking twice within a few days. Ho paid further attention to United States Senator Charles W. Fulton, reiterat ed many of his past charges against that legislator and adding others. He eulogized President Roosevelt and Senator LaFollette, and warned his hearers against greed of corpora tions and great concentration of wealth, and gave tho government land swindlers and several local poli ticians a severe dressing down. He was unhesitating In urging his hear ers to guard their law providing for tho nomination of United States sen ators by direct vote of the people, saying that without an effort people In this state had secured a jewel which was obtained in California only after ten years' effort. Heney, while ho did not devoto as much timo as expected to Fulton, yet took time to read from a bulky en velope, letters and documents bear ing on tho "hold up" session of the Oregon legislature of 1897, and dis cussed alleged methods used in ef forts to return the late Senator John H. Mitchell fo office. W. F, (Jack) Williams, T. Cador Powoll, Pierce Mays and several oth er politicians of the state of wide prominence, camo in for a round scoring and W. S. U'lten, "father of Statement No. 1," received both words of condemnation and highest tribute. Somo of U'Ron's principles, Honey did not approve of, but he de clared U'Ren one of the most bril liant men of this country. "Fulton," said Heney. "Is tho Inst of the old machine politicians in Ore gon, and when ho Is removed from ofllco the last traco of tho old regime will bo obliterated. Whether or not tho old machlno will over again se cure a foothold Is up to tho people to determine. "Now, my friends, in conclusion, Statement No. 1 is what gives you your power to nomiunto your senator. Without that there Is nothing In that law (applauso). Unless you pledge tlio men whom you nominate for tho legislature to vote for tho man who recolves tho highest popular vote of the people of this state, there Is ab solutely nothing In it. By nominat ing in that method you control abso lutely tho election of tho United States senator without nny machine and without any corporato Interest having a chanco to Interfere. No, do not let them fool you Into losing that right. What I object to moro than anything else in tho election of Ful ton is that it gives comfort, It gives power and public ofllco to tho tna- ehlne men who held you In their con trol so many jours. It puts you back again when you have escaped from It by Statement No. 1" (applauso). UAKKU CITY. Ore., April 17. Calling Francis .1. Heney a liar and a viper, United States Senator C. V. Fulton addressed a largo audience hero tho other night. It is estimated that he used tho words "lie" and "liar" 200 times In his speech. Fulton reviewed his career In the United States senate and praised tho late Senator .Mitchell and Congress men Williamson and Hermann, stat ing that his friendship for Mitchell was In death as It was in life. Ho ox cused Mitchell's errors by tho infir mities of old age, urging that tho dead sonator showed no wrong in tent. Fulton's speech was defensive throughout. Ho did not take tho ag gressive at any time and failed oven to mention Statement No. l, which In this vicinity is deemed tho most im portant Issuo of tho campaign. uecauso tlio Baker City Herald had the courage to print Collier's attack upon Fulton In full In that ovenlug'; V"vrrH :MARSHFIELD SCHOOL NEWS frfr.i..I..I..;..I..I..I..HH'4'-frH-Hr Tho school piano will be tuned Saturday. the High school and Grades during the past week.
