not a single doubt was felt about the .
truth of the orator's sentiments. 1
Judge Harris laid the blame for the!
war entirely on Cerniauy. "If tier
many had been h democracy," tie .
said, "the war would never have be- '
gun. It is now a war of democracy j
against aulocracy. and wars will

the speaker finished he was greeted
I by a prolonged applause, which was
evidence of the most sincere atleu
jtion given to every word.
I The musical numbers on the pro
gram were especially pleasing, the
patriotic selections rendered by the
1. O. O. F. orchestra of 15 pieces,
and by a quartette, being in keeping
I with the occasion. The quartette
' was composed of Misses Allie Hlack

WASHINGTON, June 15.- The
President has rigned the three mil
lion dollar war budget bill. Signing
of (he bill has started the greatest
series of contract signing in t he his
tory of the world. Contracts with
manufacturers throughout the coun
try for shoes, uniforms, lumber and
all things immediately needed for
the new armies and the enlarged
naval establishments, awaited the
1 moiiienUHis time when the President
would sign his measure. It was im
possible to sign the contracts until
! the war budget became a law. The
I money is now immediately available
foi the great army, navy and ship
i ping work. The bill included $ 7 r A
j unit, unn to buy and build mer
chantmen. It is now also possible to
I begin the tremendous defense work
I of the Panama Canal,
j Ijiuui Over Stihsri ilwd,
Washington. June la. Heavy
oversubscription of the two million
dollar Liberty loan Is assured. The
! over-subscription, according to Hub
ert W. Wool ley, director of public
ity, will probably reach a billion dol
lars. The average subscription whs
probably about $ HHmi dollars. Defi
1 nite stew have been undertaken to
i w ard holding over-subscript ions on
this loan until the next loan, which
; will be three billion dollars for the
allies. Secretary McAdoo, in a for
, tnal statement, said that the loan is
! greatly over-subscribed .

WASHINGTON, -luue 15. The

Sheriff George Quine, who was
unable to attend the annual conven
tion of the Oregon Sheriffs' Associa
tion because of business matters
needing his attention here, this
morning received word from Port
land to the effect that 1. S. Histrict
Attorney Heames yesterday appeared
before the sheriffs and gave them ex
plicit Instructions as to how to deal J
w ith slackers w ho may he appre- i
hen'teil in this stale.
"Seek out the slackers and bring
them to justice," was tin' order re
ceived by the sheriff from l'orttand.
The V. S. District Attorney also
showed the sheriffs how they could
otherwise assist the Govern ment
officials during the war.
The sheriffs have also decided to
put the finger print blent ificat ion
system into effect In practically every
county in Oregon. Multnomah Coun
ty will be the state headquarters for
tliis work, and Deputy Sheriff
Keck man. of Portland, will have
charge of the headquarters bureau.
Uecause of the fact that the Hew
law providing for the installation of
the finger print identification sys
tem makes it incumbent upon the
sheriffs to pay the expense entai'ed
in installing the same. It mav have
the effect of delaying adoption of Hie
svstem here. Sheriff Quine says he
does not feel like expending three
or four hundred dollars in install
ing this system unless the cost in
guaranteed hy the county.
Sheriff Hulbnrt. of Portland, was
re-elected president of I he Sheriffs'
Association for another year.
W. H. Stearling and son. W. L.
Stearling. left this morning for Pid
dle lo spend the day. Mr. and Mrs.
Stearling and son recently arrived
here from Minnesota and are so well
pleased with this city that they plan
home here for a few
sped to spend the

This A I lei noon.
That Cal Neal, the well known lo-
al railway brakeinun, who wan
killetl wliile handling curs near the
arnes cement (tiarries ut 'A o'clock
esterday afternoon, was run over as
the result of attempting to avert a
possible wreck and consequent dani-
ine lo the company r property, wan
he mi list a nee of the testimony ad-
luced at the coroner's Investigation
nto the cause of the accident, which
,vas held in the city hall this morn
ing.
Shortly before noon, n Jury which
hud been empanelled, consisting of
VY. YouiiK. rred Hamilton, C. vv.
Parks. D. V. Hennett, V. 10, OH and
James Hutchlns, returned u verdict
ilndiiiK accidental death. No attempt
as made to tix the liability, the de-
Isinii' simply si at i n K that death was
lue to the body belli; run oer by
hre ears loaded with rock, this re
uiltlnK trout an attempt on the part
if the victim to stop two of the cars
which were runnliiK away.
As described by the several eye
Ailnesscs who testified ut the lu-
liiesi, (he accident was caused by the
,licii ot two loaded cars which had
trot ten beyond control after being
toaded at I he bunkers on the stde
. rack. As had been the practice in
moving ibe cars away to permit
empty cars being placed along the
bunkers, I wo men with pinch burs
iiad started the loaded cars down the
xrade. I'sually the loaded cam were
-(topped sev eral hundred feet down
i he siding by means of t be hand
brakes. Yesterday, however, the
makes on one of the cars were ap
parently defective, which allowed
he speed lo Increase to about seven
miles an hour, wit h t he danger of
rashing with considerable force Into
the other cars stationed several
hundred feet down the track.
Neal. according to the testimony,
was on u locomotive
i rack across froirTTe stationary
ars, w hen he ytfw t he Impending
wreck. Thhi)rTig only of avoiding a
o-riouh Kinayhup, he sprang Instant
ly lo the other cars and climbed
jver the second loaded cur to the
'mikes. He hud just taken hold of
the brake wheel when the crash
came. He was thrown down on the
track between the two stationary
cars and one of the latter and the
two runaway cars passed over his
body. He was dragged about one
hundred feet along I he rails, and
died almost instantly.
A. YV. MctHiehey, engineer on the
locomotive, said on the witness stand
he had called to the brakemini to
Jump before the crah, but (hat his
warning was probably not beard.
Mr. MeOhehcy was only a few feet
from where I he accident occur red,
and gave a graphic description of the
whole tragedy. On one of the runa
way cars which yassed over the bodv
was Alfred Neal, the dead man's
brother. Moth bud been working for
t he cement com pan but n short
time. W. I,. Iteeve, foreman of the
workman, was at the quarries, about
three quarter of a mile away, at the
