. w iu can write the story of the
. -work done In and by the La Grande
saloons during the put 10 years T
What a volume It would make! It it
written In tears and lu blood.
It toll of Inncnent childhood robbed
trf father' lovti and support, of
young manhood blighted, of sweet
girlhood betrayed, of fond wifehood
and motherhood crushed and hurried
to eternity. It la a story of brawls
and fights, of political dishonesty and
graft of Intimidation and boycott, of
bribes paid for protection and retalia
tion upon those who could not be
bought. It la embellished with pro
fane and vulgar songs and atorles of
fallen men and women, and with pic
ture and cards not allowed In the
malls. -
. The story speaks of men capable of
kigb, and noble callings, who, for the
aadt of "easy money" have been heed
leas of an old mother's advice, have
purned the warnings of friend and
bare .ntored a business that robs them
at their own self-respect and in time
anflt for worthy business.
This story tells of an old man, a
drunkard for years, who wished to
reform and was making a desperate
fight, being treated again and again,
then wild with appetite he pawn
clothing, drinks, shivers, curse aelf
and, goes deeper into sin. It tell of
a wife' earning ttoren and spent by
drunken husband while baby la cold.

what Is expected out tomorrow after
noon when the second game of the

and his knees were sore. He spont
some time in a chair, having explained
his physical condition at the beginning
of his speech, but as he talked he oh
liame interested and though he leaned
on the back of his chair,' he stood
most of the time. He went directly
to a barber shop, where he Joked and
talked as he was being shaved. ITc
spurned the offer of a carriage and
walked to his home. After sleeping
a few hours it Is his Intention to re
turn to resume his speech.
, Today's program Is that Senat ir
Gore of Oklahoma will follow Stono,
and then La Follette will begin again.
Stone Is expected to speak several
hours. ...,'.'..",'.'-.
The longest previous filibuster wat
conducted by Allen $t Nebraska in
1880, when he defeated the silver pur
chase law. The surprising feature of
the La Follette filibuster la the sup
port he has received, when, as the
only republican opposing the measure
he appealed to the democrats for aid.
Aldrlch tried to get a vote on the
auupuon 01 tne ; conference report,
but Stone was on his feet, ready ',c
talk, and the motion was not put.
Stone being recognized' by the chair.
Stone said: ,
"I am going to follow the lead 1
the Wisconsin senator. I am more
than wici him in this fight. " Mom
hers frequently Interrupted him say
ing they ci'tldn't hear, but he refused
to strain his voice. He read length'
editorials and pamphlets relative tc
the currency question. Aldrlch often
'.nterruu.jl him with questions.
At 12:30 Stone was still speaking
The leaders are planning to preven!
La Follettti from speaking again by
enforcing a rule preventing a senator
speaking twice on the same day on th
lame subject If this point Is made
La Follette Will have to yield the flooi
for the introduction of bills and wll
argue 'the interruption made v hlnr
ipeak twice.
Counterpart Never Seen.
This nation has never seen a coun
terpart of this day and the compro
mise ourrency bill seems doomed to b
'alked to , death, Tb executionen
.vera wonderfully well chosen.
8tone is not at all tired by his loni
tpeech. and Gore Is still fresh am
inxlous for the fray. Both are ora
tor of wonderful ability.
It I freely predicted that the ore
orlcal contest which began yesterda;
nornlng will still be In full blast a
hurch time tomorrow. As no defln
