SHOWN FOR Candidate for President Gets feeble Demonstration TALKS TEN MINUTES ON IDEALS Nut More than 1500 People Assemble lo Hw the Republican Candidate Here Ibis Morning. Tie came, he spoke, he wont on his way. Not more than 1300 peo ple listened to his general remarks, several hundred shook his hand, but a few thought of him afterward. There was no enthusiasm. It was fine of the feeblest demonstrati ever given to a Na'.ional figure in this city. .Indue Charles Kvans Hughes, op ponent of President Woodrow Wil son, and seeker o( the highest of fi e within the gift of the people, at n most critical time In the Nation's history, thus appeared before the gathering of his constituents in Roseburg The camlidite talked in minutes. It was apparently a crowd assembled out of curiosity and their curiosity being satisfied, they re turned unenthused to their varinn piirsuils. As the train slowly mover! away a ripple of applause was heard from the dispersing crowd while ihe Roseburg band struck up "Dixie." The wgjile proceeding was n 'tic able for its lack of enthusiasm. Mr. Hughes, himself, young despite his iron grey beard and mustache, seemed to detect the attitude of coolness. From the. reports else where it seems this occasion was In keeping with similar events along the line. No flags were in evidence, no cheers were raised, and few ven-. turrd that h"ie was the next Presi dent of the I'nited States. Mr. hughes wap in appearance af rit is pictured, and upon his entrance upon the rear platform of the train, upon whic h were also some of Itoe burg's leading Kepublirans, a muf fled expression, the nearest rosenib lame to a cheer, was uttered as the crowd at once made the recognition. Attorney Klbert Hermann made the intrc:i;.. iiry speech. Mr. Her mann was sincere and his brief re marks to the effect that the .ludgo was the pride and ideal of his party were duly appreciated. Mr. Her mann was hi ief, deelaring the candi date needed no Introduction. In the (piiet whieh at once followed. Mr. Hughes waved to the crowd. He re ferred to his hurried ti dp and his busy hours in Portland and in the next ten minutes which was allotted to his speech. dMiwred from his muih repeater) and only address on Americanism" of his now famous non committal policy. Mr. Hughes did say. however, as has been reported in recent dispatch es, the pronoun "1" in connection with his acts if Mected to the Presi dency. He said "I am for a continu al!' e of Americanism and I will ev en ise every power to promote it" 11" made not a single reference to tin situation with Mexico. With his usual vehemence, ho at tacked the tariff polity of the Demo crats, not mentioning that the pol icy of that party and the desire of all parties is to leave the future set tlement ot the tariff nuestions to a non partisan commission, now be ing i-reatfd by Toneress. He declared frankly for an effi cient organization and effectiveness in the const rm'tve ptocram in Na-1 tional affairs. Nothing more deft-1 nite or personal was pronounced, 1 he crisis in the situation of world politics now demands that the I'ni-, ted States be organized as it never has he.-n before," was his eonelud-: ing stat inent on this point. The, basif foi this organization and for ' th prosperity of ti." country, he said, was leadership. H" Inferred that if eh-cted to the huh nffi-e to which br a-pir.'d. h would bad the people to the greatest organization ever known, this to be the salvation of the Cnit-d Stat." from the op erations ot the party now in power The prosperity now so generally evi dent throughout the Kastern statj he termed merely temporary. ! u i b ar he no-ant to touch upon no definite issues At his ponlu ion b said I m w d-di' ate n.y-elf to the id-als for whi.h the K.-pubiiran I ,trtv stand" a in li at d from the pr in- ipl-s 1 have attempted to ex plain.

Raingow, at the depot at Winchester Deputy Came Warden Orin Thomp son Is desirous that as many sports men an possible be on tiaud with automobiles to assist in emptying Hie fish near that place in the North I'mixiua Itiver. The shipment willconsist of 17". cans, according to the announce ment, the cans containing many thousands of small fish They will arrive at Winchester on train No. la, which reaches that point about 9:1.". o'clock, and the distribution will take place immediately after-1 ward. The cans will be taken to various points along the stream for some distance on each side of Win chester and their contents placed in convenient pools. The shipment is from the Monneville hatcheries near Portland, and this addition to the' fish in the local stream will be great ly upreciated by hundreds of f isher-1 men who annually enjoy the sport : in this section. PREPAREDNESS IS PER FECT, SAYS fIRE WARDEN BUT NO fiRES OCCUR i Preparedness to Die point of per fection, yet nothing on which to exer-, cise its usefulness, is the situation j at present, according to W. J. Lan-1 : der, deputy fire warden, or the fire , fi thting service for Douglas County. Miles of trail have been constructed, lookouts at every point of vantage have been erected but not a fire has l occured to arouse any apprehension j nor a single blaze to last over night. ! This unprecedented situation is ' due to a number of reasons, accord i ing to the men, and have been the aims of the patrolmen and their su periors for many years. The sys- tern is now beginning to show re-1 suits. Patrolmen may be rushed from one point of danger to another with great rapidity and with ease, this formerly being impossible. On account of the telephone lines, the improved trails, ami t lie st.it ions from w hich fires are discovered in their Incipiency, action is brought to every blaze in a very short space of time. Also the hunters have learn ed to he more careful, whereas they were the cause of most of tue fires heretofore, and also the rains have prevented many blazes. It is t ho be lief that this year will see a less number of forest fires than any other v ear since the service has been es tablished. There are now 2S patrolmen In the field to watch the outbreak of fires, but according to Mr. Lander, the men have been used during the usual busy season in building trails and other constructive work of a pre laredness nature.

PORTLAND ATTORNEY IS HERE ON PUIER CASE; TO TXAMINE RECORDS I purpose of Arriving here for tli securing evidence in (he case of the I Federal Government against S A 1 D. I 'liter, u ml ' i' indict men t at Sati Francisco for using the Fulled Slate:: mails to defraud. Attorney T son K in sell, of Portland. Hpent Wednesday Upon t he records at the court house. While not giving out Information hi m self, it is understood that .Mr. K in sell is securing a hst of the al leged fraudulent applications w hich were made by Mr. Puter in local ing his so called victims upttm the la ml of the Oregon H California Railroad Land Grant. Over timi of thei up plicatio.is to file on Uih land were mad" in Douglas County alone, It is said, and many others are on the m.uit land in the olher counties. I' is said Mr. Piiti;i made the purport ed to at ions lor sums varying from Ijiiu to fleu, and with the guaran tee that the locators had iirior right lo the land applied for. The applica tions were cleverly filed by Mr. Puter with the county clerk instead of with (he lot ;il Land office. Not being within the prov luce of the Govern ment to base the case on the charge of seriiring money under false pre tenses, in this in-tame, it may be preferred upon fraudulent use of the mails. Mr. Kinsell has acted In the case prev iously and w ill probably lake part in the coming trial. W H Kl Its I I I) TOHAV. .1.
