Benson and in a Frosty Way Special to the Evening Review. NORTH YAKIMA. Wash., Sept. 29. After the presidimtiul train ar rived here this morning, orders were sent ahead on the itinerary to cut all reception programmes to the bone. Taft'e patience has become exhausted over the cheeky manner In which local committees of the cities he has visited have enlarged his labors by adding hand-shaking, auto rides and extra speeches to the programmes. At Siwkane yesterday President Taft voiced a protest at both lunch eon and dinner because ho was called upon to speak, after being assured that he would not be expec ted to say anything. "This - promise is always exacted, always given and always violated," said the President. Later he voiced his disapproval at the arrangement? that prevented him from taking a rest after successive days of talking. Guests at the Spokane banquet last night thought the President was jok ing and chuckled, but Taft wns very much in earnest. Ho has directed that all meals served in his hono from now on be as simple as possi ble and that foreign dishes be elim inated, indigestion is a bugbear that the President fenrs. He realize? that if his digestive organs give out his trip will come to an end. Oregon Olliciuls Snubbed, SALEM, Or., Sept. 29. With the sole exception of Governor Benson, no state official has received an invi tation to attend the ceremonies to be held in Portland Saturday and Sunday next in honor of President Taffs visit. The invitation to the governor was decidedly formal a blank form with the Governor's nawe inserted. Governor I teuton undoubtedly nroused a feeling of resentment among the Portland com mittee by declining its request to de clare a state holiday next Saturday.

Yours respectfully, U. W. STRONG. CIIUtCH CAl'CUS. Considerable has been said by the enemies of the Citizens ticket about a meeting held at the Methodist hurch, last Monday morning, in the interest of the coming election. Any fair-minded citizen knowing the circumstances under which tbe meeting wns called, would have only commendatory comment In regard to It. This meeting was purely acci rlentnl. It was not maliciously de signed. It was called together by two good citizens, not preach el's, one a professional man and the other a business man. Iteth men were friend ly to the candidacy of Mr. Havnes. md that the meeting should endorse .it m for mayor. Their first thought of such a meet ng originated late Sunday afternoon. uml as many as could be conveniently louneu, witiiout respect to Mr. Hay lies' favor or opposition, were in vited to attend. No thought of giving public offense, or making the church a dictator in utilities was once thought of. This ;lacc was chosen because of conven ience. Even though the impressions of the foes of the proceedings of that meet ing were well founded. It yet remains i question as to whether or not a meeting in such a place, for such a mi-pose. Is not better that such meet ngs held in near beer joints and In he interests of the brewery. A number of the best and most impressive business men of Rose urg, for more than two hours, care " it 11 y and seriously considered (he ulvlsnhlllty of uniting their support 'or a Citizens' ticket. While proba cy one-half favored the endorsement if Mr. Ilaynes for mayor at the begin ning, arter serious deliberation it was inanimously decided that we could iot afford to take chances on nn ad ninistratlon which seemed to be en tirely satisfactory to the brewery in terests. In order that the city may have he proper fruits of the local option victory of last election, ns voted by he majority of Its HtWens.. it wns iie'-.i'iry to have the avowed friend f h.w eiiforceir'-nt as chief executive. Thi:t the gathering whih made nch n decision is not com nosed of r"liiii(ins bigots may be seen by th liberality in Its endorsement of other andidates, who have no church affii lations. Everyone knows that In Roseburg 'he law is not administered without oartiaiity and that only those who meet the disapproval of the brewery interests are held amendable to It f laws, and that the benefits of our Mty laws can only be gained by fair "oiiFideratlon from the hands of the Mty council and chief executive. Let the laws have a chance in the hands of those who will honestly en force (hem. F. H. CHURCHILL., A Common Error. Many people delude themselves by they notice symptoms of kidney and.

Peary Sobmils Arraignment of Cook to His Club ' AUTO RACE CLAIMS A LIFE Wilbur Wright Gives Grand Exhibition la Airship Baldwin Balloon -Falls Into River Special to The Evening Review. BAR HARBOR, Me., Sept. 29. President Hubbard, of the Peary Arc tic Club, announced today that Com mander Peary's charges against Dr. Cook was ready for submission to the club. After they have been gone over thoroughly they will be pub lished. Speaking of the report, Hubbard said tolay: "It is possible that the officers of the club may think some of Peary'B statements are too fierce. In such an event the explorer will be asked to modify his Innguage, but aB far as facts go nothing will be done to detract from its real meaning or force. Neither will anything be ad ded to it. The report will be Just as much Peary's statement as if the club had made no minor suggestions. I believe all statements made by Peary in his arraignment of Cook are true, and that they will be eo accepted by the public." Ilaldu ill's Itnlloon Falls. NEW YORK. Sept. 29. Captain Baldwin's dirigible balloon-airship collapsed and fell Into the Hudson River at Spuyten Duyvil Island to day, putting him out of the race for the $10,000 prize.- George L.

Darting through the air at terrific speed with all the grace of a seagull, Wilbur Wright today gave the throngs assembled here for the Hudson-Fulton week, a rare display of aviation. It was a public flight, not a government test. The exhibition was In effect tbe first flight of a great American airship before the Ameri can public. The Goddess of Liberty In the harbor was the objective point. Wright made a beautiful circle about the statue, rising from Governor's Is land. The machine was In perfect trim and the weather was Ideal.

Eugene Guard: A movement was set on foot at the Commercial Club last night to erect a permanent and spacious home for the organization. It Is proposed to secure a good alte as near the business center as possl- bie, and build tlie finest structure1 owned by any commercial body in Oregon. This action waa taken be cause the present club rooms are out grown, and for the further and more important reason that such a build ing would be a standing advertise ment of the life and activity of the commercial interests of the city. It la also Intended to Include In the plan of the building a Bplcndtd con vention hall, which, with the modern new hotel, now under way, will give Eugene all the facilities for a state convention city. The Importance of this movement will be better realized when the Oregon Eastern railroad to Klamath Falls Is completed, and Eu gene will be the point most easily ac cessible by rail for eastern Oregon, as well as centrally located for the western part of the state. To become recognized as a convention city Is a 1 strip five miles long nml six miles distinction for which the leading i wide, all of which, with the excep clties of the East are striving, and . tlon of about 640 acres, wbb deemed many of them have expended millions on hotels and convention halls with ! this single purpose In view, j During the discussion of this movement at the meeting last night, ' (t wns suggested by one of the speak ers that Eugene business men had been heavily taxed by the building I of the now hotel, the Y. M. C. A. , building, the proposed Elks' build ing and various other enterprises that the proposed building would mean the raising of more money. This view was effectually answered by another speaker, who declared mat ne nan contributed to an tnose thlngs, but that hi the growth of business and advance In realty values he had received back ten dollars for every one expended In this way. This speaker struck tho key note of Eugene's present prosperity and growth. Cities do not grow they are built up by the enterprise of tho people who live In them. Who, among all our business men and property owners,, would willingly re ceive back the money he has put In to public enterprises nnd promotion work, and in exchange see Eugene go back to where It was three years ago?

Do these tilings and In another three years Eugene will pass the 25,000 murk in population and be come recognized as one of the lead ing cities of the Northwest. Is there a single man or woman Jn this already busy, beautiful city who la opposed to a continuation of this policy of progress? (The foregoing Is equally as appli cable to Roseburg as to Eugene). KKSTOKINCJ riTIIIJU IHttlAIN. (Oregonlan). Tho extenslvo and unnecessary land withdrawals, made by Mr. Pln chot In carrying out his elaborate conservation policies, are strikingly tihowu In a recently issued map, which displays both the Plnchot and the Bntlfnger withdrawals for power purposes along the Owyhee River in Oregon. Tho Plnchot withdrawals include an unbroken stretch from a point where the Owyhee enters the Snake River, through 22 Townships, a distance, allowing for tho mean derings of the river, of more than 125 miles, Beginning nt the mouth nf (lift rli'nr Mr IMiiclint wltlwlruw a by Secretary Balllngeras unnecessary for conservation purposes, and was restored. About twenty-five miles, from the mouth of tho river Mr. Plnchot withdrew an entire township, all of which, with the exception of 1200 acres, was restored by Mr. liallinger, who added but 3000 acres adjoining the Plnchot withdrawals, to secure the proper protection for the water powers. Adjoining this township Mr. Plnchot appropriated another on tire township, tho trend of the river being such that a strip nearly three miles wide ou both sides of the river wns withdrawn. Through the same township tho Balllnger with drawals averaged less than a mile in width, tho additional five miles in width and six miles In length being nvnilabte for settlors. White Mr. Plnchnt's selections kept the river on Government reservations for the entlro distance, there are ten private openings, from one-half to two miles in length, In tho Halllngor plan for withdrawals. By the Plnchot plnn more llinn sixteen townships were placed beyond the reach of settlers, under the guise of protecting power sites on the Owyhee, and Its tributar ies, the Jordan and the Rattlesnake. Tho liallinger withdrawals, as shown on the map, will hardly ex- ceed In the aggregate more than two and one-half townships, and, for all practical purposes, the power-sites and othor uses to which the river may be put have been fully aB well protected as they would have been under the Plnchot plan. From a sentimental and picturesque stand point it might be advantageous to leave In a state of nature this vast strip of country, 125 mites long and from two to six miles wide. There are purposes, however, for which it can be used to better advantage, and while Mr. Plnchot, the millionaire faddist, may regret the change, It will be welcomed by thousands of settlers who will find homes on the lands sweeping back from the tur bulent Owyhee and Its branches. .
