II SELLING SAVED
PEOPLE FROM PANIC
When Bank Failed He Promptly
Offered Par for Pass Books.
Lean Sharks and Brokers Thwarted
By Him Saved People
Large Suma.
"Help promptly is of double value,"
aays the proverb.
Oregon people, and Portland people
Id particular, will remember the fail
ure of the Title Guarantee and Trust
company, of Portland, In October, 1907.
The embarrassment of that Institution
was bad enough of Itself. But It came
at a time when the breaking of one
bank came perilously near producing
panic in which many banks and
business houses must go down to
the measureless damage of thousands.
It was a time for men to help each
other; a time for business Interests
to stand together In order to save
depositors from a heavy Iosb.
Disastrous as a settlement of ma
terial discount would have been, it
was feared for a time that It was the
best settlement that could be made.
And If made. It certainly would have
resulted in widespread 'and ruinous
loss lo thousands all over Oregon.
In that crisis Ben Selling promptly
came forward with a better offer. He
proposed to take over the claims of
he depositors at seventy-five cents
on the dollar in good, solid casft, and
an additional twenty-five cents In mer
ihandise. It was absolutely equiva
ent to a hundred cents on the dollar
every penny that waa Involved.
There was an instance of needed
elp promptly given. It averted a
hreatened and imminent panic. It
estored the general confidence In
tanks and business houses. It abso
utely Insured depositors against loss,
t did more than any other one thing
0 enable commercial Portland to ride
he troubled seas of 1907 the most
langerous period since 1896.
And it was typical of Ben Selling,
t required financial resources, splen
id judgment of conditions, and a sup
rb confidence In the essential stabill
y of bis city and his state, and the
airness of his fellow citizens.
VHAT BILL HANLEY
THINKS OF BEN SELLING
"Oregon for Oregon" Is the slogan
if William Hanley, the picturesque
epresentatlve of Central Oregon, who.
lecause of his marked facial and pliy
.leal resemblance to William Jen
lings Bryan, has muny times beei
nistaken for the thrice-defeated can
lidate of the Democracy for the pres
dency. It Is for the reason of "Ore
;on for Oregon" and because Hanley's
lews coincide closely with those ot
Ben Selling, candidate for the Kepub
ican nomination for United State?
senator, that Hanley feels very friend
y toward the candidacy of Selling
-. Ik
WILLIAM HANLEY
Hanley came out of the Selling head
luarters yesterday looking cheerful
teflocting that Mr. Selling In his plot
orm had definitely committed him
elf to securing for Oregon Its Jtif
.hare of the reclamation fund fo:
iromotlog various irrigation project!
n this state. Mr. Hanley said It woulr
e advisable for the voters of thii
tate to elect a senator who could b

secure for the state all that belong

JESSE THOMPSOM
Whose recent tragic death, through
the accidental discharge of a rifle, has
been already announced by the coun
ty press, was born in Crawford coun
ty Illlinois, Aue. 6, 1852. He was.
the sixth in a family of aeven five
boys and two girls. In 1858, when
Jesse was only six, hia fathet died,
leaving the are aud support of toe
family to the mother; a woman of un
usual strength of character, who, liv
ing with herchilrden on rented farms,
contrived by industry and good busi
ness sense to support her family and
keep her children together. In order
to better the family fortunes she re
moved to Kansas, the most western -state
in the union, in 1868 ; where, after
two years of pioneer life, she passed
into the larger life in the Beyond.
Five years after his fathers death,
in 1875, Jesse crossed the plains by
the overland route into Oregon where
he labored at an honest work that
came to his hand, till 1883, when he
and his brother, Elias, came to the
Agency Valley, and located the fine
ranch on which the two brothers have
accumulated a fortune. By strict in
tregity, industry, and honest dealing,
they not only made a home, but warm
friends all over the county
He is survived by a sister and two
brothers: Mrs. H. M. Sutheralnd of
Mountainhome, Idaho; John S. Thom
son of Jasper, Mot ; and Elias Thomp
son of Beulah. A cousin, J. B. Stan
field of Mountainhome, with his fam
ily constitute the only remaining near
relatives living west of the Rocky
Mountains.

Lawrence, Asst Cashier W. J. Graff,
A HORRIBLE VISION
Our manager recently had a weird dream:
He was peacefully reposing upon his bed when a strange noise caused
him to partially rise, to find himself gazing into a pair of fierce looking
eyes not' two feet away. The creature bending over his bed waa fearfully
and'wonderfully made. The manager was mad and wanted to say "The
Devil," but was also scared, and could only feebly gasp, "Wh - - wh - - -what
have! I d -'done?"
His Satanic Majesty straightened up and smiled yea laughed for he
had a keen sense of humor.
"Fear not," he said in a husky voice, "for I bring you good tidings of
great Joy, which shall be to you and your boss, for this night, in this bsg
beside me are fifty-seven hundred ami sixty-four thousand golden ducats.
They belong to you both. I came for the sole purpose of placing and order
and paytng?in advance for ten thousand carloads of KING COALThe
llotUti Muff inline tWvrto be delivered when Gabriel toots hie
horn."
With a swUlt of bis tail, s lw bow, and a rordUl but painfully era
phalli) "See Yog J.atvr," be made a itoUe like a purple relti-o apron and
