RESPECTFULLY, DANIELS Continued from ib pie) "Plaintiff says that he has plain, speedy or adequate remedy at law for the reason that the laws of this state do not provide any manner for contesting such elections. 'Suppose tbe ordinary means of contesting elections were open to him, would a re-count of the ballot help solve the question as to whether or not the Medford charter Is the la ter law? The question which he raises Is one of law and not ot fact. I cannot see why he needs to contest the election nor upon what he would base such contest. If the general law Is repealed by the charter he could have reviewed the County court at the time It made the order calling the election, Und he can re view them after they have made their order, If ln the exercise of Jurisdic tion It exceeds Its powers. "Reverting to a point argued ln my former brief as to when the local option law went Into effect, I said that It, as enacted by the people, went Into effect by proclamation by tbe governor June 24, 1904, but the only effect It had then was that of an enabling act. Its power and in fluence over the liquor question ln Oregon were prospective and not ef fective until the people had decided to put It Into force. It did not re peal any charter at that time nor nover has since, but the people, when by a proper election have taken ad vantage ot Its privileges and have decided ln favor of prohibition in any locality by such act, have put the law Into effect and suspended al1 charter privileges within the pre cincts covered by the election "This view of the law reconciles the two seemingly conflicting stat utes and leaves both with power to act In accordance with the will of the people, and whenever they have de cided which shall have sway.

Probably the moat Important act of the day and one having the greatest significance in the final result of the convention was the adoption of the final report ot the committee on cre dentials, seating the Taft delegates practically Into to. If there had been any lingering doubt of the Taft Btrength It disappeared before this decisive act lor-, which In effect placed more than 700 delegates ln the Taft column. Equally Important and even more remarkable was the acceptance of this resolution by the "allies" with out even the formality of a dissenting minority report and without carry- ng the question to the floor of the convention for the open fight which has baen so long threatened. Instead nil further 'Opposition seemed crum bled and thus the path was cleared for the fulfillment of the plans al ready matured for the nomination of the head of the ticket. Favorites still have, however, their bands of steadfast supporters who will show ih -ir loyally when tne first ballot U taken. The scene within the Coliseum to day repeated that of yesterday ln magnitude and brilliancy of Its spec tacular features. Again every seat was occupied and 14,000 people, packing the floors, aisles, galleries and platform, Joined in the ebb and flow of agitation and enthusiasm. Temporary Chairman Burrows called the convention to order m 12:20, bul the delays of committees In report ing gave an hour for diversion be fore the serious work of the day be gan. This time It was given over to marching of various clubs, bands and vocal choruses. This diversion over, the convention turned to committee reports, the first being credential the very foundation on which the delegates have their seats and vote. It was presented by Senator Fulton of Oregon In a three-minute speech, stating that the action on the nation al committee had been fully justi fied and upheld. For a moment the delegates looked about for the fire breathing senator ot Indiana who had led the minority for the allies' forces and had promised a lively fight on tbe floor. But Bookwalter sat with .the Indl ana delegation, shaking his head in answer to inquiries and announcing that the fight had been abandoned. The report was quickly approved with only a few scattering votes In opposition. The presentation of the report on permanent organization was the sig nal for Burrows to yield to Perma nent Chairman Lodge, who spoke with that resonant New England twang, which made It ring to the farthest corners of the hall. "The fevered fancy of an uneasy decade" was his indictment hurled against the visionary policies of the opposition parties. The applause had hardly died away when Lodge launched his sentence which electri fied the assemblage Into Us first real demonstration of wild enthusiasm "The president," exclaimed Lodge, "Is the most abused and most popu lar man In the United States." This was a long-awaited signal. Instant' ly a shout broke forth from the gal leries and was echoed back from the floor after a tempest ot detached yells and catcalls and shouts of "Teddy," but gradually the whole gathering Joined ln the outbreak Delegates were on their feet on chairs, waving hands, newspapers. One delegate had torn his coat off and was waving It, and there was general pandemonium. In tho midst ot It all someone hurled a huge "Teddy bear" among the delegates and It was pitched back and forth from one delegation to another, the tempest of noise becoming greater, If that were possible. Thirty mln- :t n3 passed , 4 T , full three-quarters of an hour In this bewildering con fusion of sight and sound. For a time a fear was felt by some that the stampede was imminent, but political generals were glad to give the pent-up enthusiasm of the mul titude this outlet of expression and at no time was there slightest appre hension among them that the well- laid plans would miscarry by some overpowering movement. Frank H. HltchcocK, Taft manager. moved about the floor, smiling as the tumult was at Us height. Cheers for Roosevelt today will be for Taft tomorrow," said he, with confidence. "With the subsidence of the Roose velt storm. Lodge complete his stirr ing speech and then the convention turned to reports of other committees. Tho final details of the platform are being arranged by the platform committee tonight and It completed the convention will be equipped to morrow to make Its declaration of policy and proceed to the election of candidates. man how to live completely.' It thut be true, then education must be profitable. Tho well-educated man can enjoy a profound lecture and a profound book, something tho Igno rant man cunnot do. The well-edu cated mau of enlarged vision and the man of enlarged vision sees what the Ignorant cannot see. Moreover, tbe man possessed of a good educa tion has tho ability to achieve, and achievement Is followed by joy of success. The man of good j 'dura tlon Is never bankrupt. Finauclul disaster may overtake him, but he has a reserve capital, something to full back on. Education equips a man to meet the competitions of life. What puts one man ahead of another? The fict that he can do things better than the other man. Rev. V. F. Crofts hat written a book ln which be buy College-bred men have furnished 32 per cent of all the members of con gress, 46 per cent of all the United States senators, 50 per cent of all our vice-presidents, 5 per cent of our presidents, 73 per cent of all tin members of our Supreme court.' Tht Lnlted States commissioner of edurti tlon determined to find out the vu'ti if higher education. He ascertained -hat of 10. 0OU men who have distin guished themselves In business professions, not one was uneducated and only. 24 were self-educated. The speaker emphasized Christian education as the best education, be cause It concerns itself with the de velopment of all three department of man's being. An unusually large congregation gathered at night. Not all could be accommodated, some Btandlng ln the aisles. The appreciative congrega tion listened to an hour's program consisting of songs and declamations. Children and young people rendered their parts well. The offering for the cause of education amounted to over $10. In the morning six persons united by letter, making a total of over 60 since October 1, 1907. I have a full line of extru of every kind.
