DAN SHANNON IS GONE
EVANGELIST ROASTS PEOPLE,
BUT IS PRESENTED WITH 625
AS A REWARD.
The climax In the revival meetings
at the First Baptist church was
reached last Sunday evening, when
hundreds were turned away from the
church who could not get In and when
forty-two decided to lead a better
life. Mrs. Shannon spoke to the over
flow, which packed the Assembly room
to the doors. Just four hundred took
a definite stand during the revival ef
fort which closed Sunday night Two
hundred have already united with the
Baptist church and many of the con
verts will go into the other churches
of the city.
It is a remarkable thing that the
people of Oregon City should make a
free will offering for Mr. Shannon
amounting to $625. In view of the fact
that he called people down so unmer
cifully In exposing their sins and
short comings. Shannon spared no
one, he made people angry, he said
things which turned people against
him, he did everything that would
lead people not to give, and yet, the
free will offering reached the above
amount. He left Oregon City last
Monday for Corning, California, wherg
he will hold similar meetings.

606 MAIN ST. OREGON CITY, ORE.
UP TO NEXT
LEGISLATURE
CONCENTRATED MOVEMENT BE
GUN TO DEFEAT CHAMBER
LAIN FOR SENATOR.
QOYENOR IS SCORE!)
Multnomah Man Attack People'
Choice and 8ay Hi Thirst for
Booze Would Be a Discredit
to Oregon.
Two newspapers In this State, the
Portland Oregonlan and the Pendle
ton Tribune, the. former edited by liar
vew V. Scott, and the latter hy ex
Governor T. T. (Jeer, are filling their
columns with matter calculated to
bring discredit - to Statement No. 1.
It Is argued at great length, suppcrtej
by the opinions of George II. Williams,
M. C. George and others, that the ma
jority of 25,01)0 whlrh Oregon gave to
the Republican Presidential candidate
absolves the men who subscribed to
Statement No. 1 from their pledge.
Petitions are In circulation to the
legislature asking that body to pre
vent the election of a Democrat to the
I'nlted States Snate. Labor and
Grange organizations are out with
resolutions urging the members who s
have signed the Statement to stand
firm.
There is no doubt that the me mbirs
of the legislature from Clackamas
county will carry out their pledges.
State Senator Hedges is a Democrat
and will of course vote for Chamber
lain. Representatives J. U. Campbell,.
Linn E. Jones and Walter A. Dimlck
took the pledge with their eyes wide
open to the possibilities of the elec
tion of Chamberlain.
At a meeting of the executive com
mittee of the Union Republican Club
of Portland, resolutions were adopted
calling upon the membera of the leg
islature to elect a Republican. Coun
cilman A. N. Wills, of that city, talked
about Chamberlain In the following
strong language:
"But If we should send a Democrat,
why not send a decent one Instead of
a drunken one? From this time on I ,
declare myself to be In favor of equal
suffrage. I have so decided because
a woman was the first and only per
son In this state who had the temerity
to tell the truth about Governor Cham
berlain and tell of his maudlin, drunk
en condition at Astoria.
"I firmly believe In submitting
things to the people, provided the peo
ple understand what they ere voting
for and what they are doing. Govern
or Chamberlain Is not fit to represent
Oregon or to represent any other
state. Suppose he'd get on one of his
periodical 'drunks' If we Bhould send
him to Washington. Wouldn't he re
flect credit on this state? He dis
graced his state and office at Astoria.
, "I myself know of men who have
taken him across the river to get him
away while he was on the verge of
delirium tremens. I repeat. If we are
to have a Democrat for God's sake
let's have a respectable one."
A number of others spoke and
Chairman Gill at last requested Mr.
Idleman to take the chair. He then
made an Impassioned appeal to' the
committee to refrain from adopting
such a' resolution.
"Disguise it aB we will and word
the resolution as we will," he ex
claimed, "this simply means one
thing the repudiation of Statement
No. 1. You will have your fingers
burned If you handle It, and I urge
you to leave It alone."
The resolution, which was adopted,
follows:
Whereas, the Industrial and com
mercial Interests of Oregon and the
Nation will be best served by the con
tinuation of Republican policies and
Whereas, the State of Oregon and
all its cities are in need of appro
priations from the National Govern
ment for the purpose of public im
provements and the enlarging of Its
water courses, and
Whereas, this state has by the Pres
idential election rejected the Demo
cratic party and Its policies over
whelmingly and has declared that It
Is In hearty support of a Republican
Administration, and
Whereas, the next Legislature of
the State of Oregon is more than 75
per cent Republican,
Therefore be it resolved, that the
Union Republican Club of Multnomah
County heartily endorses the move
ment by the Republican party of us
ing nil honorable means to the end
that a Republican Senator shall be
e'eeted by a Republican Legislature,
and
he it further resolved. . that the
Union Republican Club of Multnomah
County use and assist In every hon
orable nleans and purposes for the
election of a Republican as United
States Senator by the coming Leg
islature. The best method of feeding is to
