TO CONTINUE ' OREGON WORK b4-44t 4 - Gorham's Do You Know? SILVER- HAWKES Hint I cany tho lnvg- Jtv -eKr fv IT ' I : ita PORTLAND, Oct. G. Jay Bow errann, assembly enndidato for gov ernor, has a consistent record in favor of asscmblyism. Ho was 0110 of tlio 12 statu senators in tbo last session of tbo legislature who gavo bis voto in favor of the discredited Mariner bill, which bad passed tbo bouso of representatives and pro posed to give tbo sanction of law to sucb movements of tbo old ring as culminated Inst July in tbe nomina tion of Bowcrmnn. To Mariner bill was officially ticsignnted ns bouso bill 344 nud enmc before tbo senafo for tbird reading; and final action of Febru ary 17, 1009. Tbe voto by wbicb tha bill was defeated may be found on the senate journal of 1909, page G73. Not only did Bowermau vote for tbe Mariner bill, but bo left his seat as president of tbe senate, went on tbe floor and made a speech for it In this little speech be defended tho "principles" of assemblyism and went out of his way to cast a slur on the direct primary law. In that speech he said he regarded the choice of a convention as better than tbe direct primary, particularly as to state nominations. He said bo would much rather voto for some man that a convention deemed qualified than for "one who bought his nomination bj paying five cents apiece for signatures to his peti tion." What Bill Provided. The Mariner bill, after tbe usual enacting clause, rend as follews: "Section 1. That any "political party as. defined in sectionvll of chapter 1, laws of 1905 (the direct primary law) may hold county, dis trict and state conventions for the purpose of declaring party princi ples and suggesting names to be placed upon tho diredt primary bal lot for such party, not exceeding three names for any one office, which names so suggested shall be placed upon such ballot when cer tified substantially as provided in sectious 2791 and 2792 of Bellinger and Cotton's annotated codes and statutes of Oregon. "Section 2. That the county, dis trict and state central committees of such parties shall provide for tbe holding of such conventions at such times and places, and in such man ner ns may bo determined by tbe respective state committees, and the same shall be held a sufficient length of time prior to tbe holding of the direct primary elections ns to have 1he results properly certified and tbe names suggested placed upon the direct primary ballots. j Held Assembly Anyway. "Section 3. Nothing in this net shall be construed to prevent or in any way bo construed to prevent or in any way hinder persons from being nominated and their names placed upon tho direct primary bal lots in any manner now provided by law for such nominations." It will be seen that the Mariner bill proposed to centralize political power in tbo bands of the state cen tral committee, which might not onlv provide tbe manner of holding stale conventions, but the mnnner of hold ing county and district conventions ns well. Bowermnn's anxiety for tho passage of the Mariner bill sug gests that tbo idea of gaining tbe governorship by such means may then bnvo been in his mind. When that bill failed of passage, tbo man ipulators went abend just t)ie same, called tbe nssembly, and nominnted the Bowcrman ticket," SHERIDAN SEVERS HIS RELATIONS WITH BURNS NEW YORK, Oct.

Hill Says There Will Be No Let Up on Projects in This State in Spite of Retrenchments Elsewhere. POKTLAXD, Oct. 0. "We have discontinued construction work all over tbo United States except in Or egon," said Louis W. Hill this morn ing when discussing tho railroad situation throughout tho country, in this city. "This menus that 1000 miles of railroad work that should be under construction is now lying dormant awaiting more favorable conditions. "In Oregon wo will carry nil the work now under way to completion nud by tbe timo that has been done things may have changed so that i' will bo possiblo to take up new pro jects here." Louis W. Hill is n son of James J. Hill, the railroad magnate, and is president of tho Great Northern railroad. "The financial situation is in a most peculiar condition," Mr. Hill explained, "and that accounts for our having discontinued work every where but in Oregon. In spite of ex cellent business indications it is im possible to get money on railroad securities. "The country appears to be in prosperous condition. Business men east have no serious complaints to make and out west hero everything seems prosperous, especially so in Oregon. Portland looks fine and appears so active that I have even reason to believe that business is good. Conditions Peculiar. "I am not prepared to attribute this peculiar condition to nny par ticular cause. It may be politics, but I would not say so. Confidence, I guess, is shaken a little. In view of tho general prosperity, tho cloud should not hang over the country very long. Wo may have to look n little far in tbe future, but normal conditions will eventually be re stored, of that I am satisfied."

Denkins, a blacksmith of Medford, returned homo Tuesday evening, the proud possessor of a cougar skin measuring 10 feet three inches from tip to tip. Dinkens in company with Dell Morrison and William IBildeiback has been hunting on Flat creek 12 miles above Pros pect. While out from the camp alone ho ran across the punthor as it was springing upon a deer. Tho deer ea t'aped nud tbo ferocious fclino turn ed towards him. His first shot hit tho animal in tho neck, killing it almost instantly. When Denkins fired tho panther was thirty feet distant and was crouched ready to spring at him. He estimated tho weight of the cougar at 350 pounds. Dickens report that tbo cougars are becoming very bold in tbo Flat Creek country, coming into camp at night. Mr, Dinkens refused bounty on tha cougar as tho law requires that tho claws bo out of as evidence and he didn't care to injure tbe skin. MP Gll,ss' KotMnB bot" Krr ran. oi tor manufactured. FOBS.

We were happy together in those days. "In February of thtis year Manuel summoned me tot Lisbon and I danced at a chairty fair organized for the relief of victims of the Opor to fire. I did not live in a suite in the royal palace; I stayed at a house nearby. "The king paid me marked atten tion and was in my company con stantly. He even presented me to his mother. "I was attacked bitterly by the republican papers for going to Lis bon. They said that the king was flaunting his mistress in his aged mothers face, who had offered horj lite tot save him when his lather una brother were assassinated. Denies Extravagance. ' "It is untrue and unjust to say that I caused the king's downfall. He gave me only small presentts which even a poor man could have afforded and it was not extrava gance. "My contract calls for $25,000 for appearing three months here. I believe that that income is grenter than the king's. "I last saw tho king in Paris in August. I had a long letter from him n few days ago expressing jov nt the prospect of seeing me in Pans in'October. "The king is a nice young man, proud and kind-hearted. "When it was reported that ho and I were to be married in Paris tbe papers said: 'Mile, des Lyo cannot afford to abandon her great kingdom of tho stnge for tho litttlc kingdom of Portugal, and thoy wero right." When first informed that the king had escaped. Mile des Lys said : "It is much better for him to ab dicate. I know he will bo happier now than when ho was king.'
