AN ABERDEEN SENSATION
BDITOR ATTACKS THE CHARACTER
OP JUDGE IRWIN.
Result of an Adverse Decision on a
County Printing Contract Per-
hnps Not the End.
ABERDEEN. tVash., Nov. 17. A sen
sation has been -caused here by an attack
upon Judge Irwin, of the Superior Court,
by J. J. Carney, editor of the Herald
(Democrat), under the editorial heading,
"A Judicial Curio." The article Is the
result of a decision made against Mr.
Carney by Judge Irwin on the county
printing contract. Carney having brought
suit to prevent the printing going to an
other paper, on the claim that Carney's
bid was the lowest.
Members of the bar practicing before
Judge Irwin yesterday presented a me
morial address expressing confidence In
the court- During Its reading the Judge
shed tears. As the case for which the
Judge was criticised has not been en
tirely disposed of. Editor Carney "will be
cited to appear in contempt proceedings.
Judge Irwin stands very high la the
circuit, and the attack upon his charac
ter is regarded as mendacious.
One Dollar Damages,
The jury In the case of Stewart vs. the
City, to determine title to portion of a
county road, brought in a verdict for the
plaintiff, giving him damages of $L This
has been a stubbornly fought case. The
road Is the only present outlet to a large
farming territory, and Stewart, who Is a
member of the Board of Aldermen,
claimed a part of it as private property.
The majority of the Council voted to pay
him 53000 for it, but the minority, who
opposed, took the matter into court, and
the court's decision was against the pur
chase. Stewart then built a fence, and the
city tore it down, henpe the suit. The
city will now condemn the property, and
Stewart must either take the actual as
sessed value or go Into court again.
LEWIS COUNTY BONDS.
Refunding Issue Sold to a Chicago
Firm.
CHEHAUS, Nov. 17. The County Com
missioners of Lewis County yesterday sold
an Issue of $100,000 of Lewis County 10 and
20-year bonds to N. W. Harris & Co., of
Chicago. Harris & Co. bid $3328 premium
for the issue at 4 par cent interest, which
with the various accompanying conditions
to the bid will make the net Interest rate
to the county about 4 and 9.i00 per cent.
There were 10 bids for the bonds, as fol
lows: Thompson, Tenny & Crawford, of
Chicago, AVt per cent and 52101 premium;
Denlson, Prior & Co., of Cleveland, O.,
5 per cent interest and a premium, of 53240;
Rudolph Kleybolte & Co., par, Interest
44 per cent; Coffman & Kepner, of Che
halLs, Vn per cent Interest and a premium
51251; Seasongood & Mayer, of Cincin
nati, AVt per cent Interest and 5550 pre
mium; D. M. Farson & Co., of Chicago,
4 per cent Interest and 5360 premium;
Coffman, Dobson & Co, of Chehall9, 4
per cent interest and 51100 premium;
Charles H. Coffin, of Chicago, 4 per cent
Interest and 5251 premium; N. W. Harris
6 Co., of Chicago, 4 per cent Interest
and 5332S premium; W. J. Hayes & Sons,
of Cleveland, 4& per cent interest, and to
be allowed 5700 cash at once for expenses,
amounting to a below par bid. which, to
gether with other Indefinite conditions at
tached, destroyed the value of the bid.
P. A. Fagg, representing Messrs. Harris
& Co., was here In person, being the only
outsider present. The county is at pres
ent paying 6 per cent Interest on these
bonds, and a material saving In interest
Is to be effected. The 5 per cent rate
was regarded 10 yeara ago as a most ex
cellent one. However, as Lewis County
is ono of the most substantial In resources
in the entire Northwest, the security Is
regarded as gilt edge and the sale at a
lower rate will be much appreciated by
the taxpayers.

INCENDIARY FIRE.
Valuable Threshing Plant Destroyed
at Pnlouse.
FALOUSE, Wash., Nov. 17. A disas
trous incendiary fire occurred In the sub
urbs of Palouse at 3 o'clock this morn
ing when two threshing machines, owned
by W. L. Nesbltt, of Palouse, were to
tally destroyed, together with tanks, cook
house, stackers, feeders, etc. One of the
machines was almost, new, having been
used but one season. The other was old,
but In good repair. Both machines had
been stored In a shed built for the pur
pose, the last one being placed there yes
terday. At 3 o'clock this morning the shed
was discovered to be on fire, and there be
ing no water nearer than a half mile the
shed and contents was soon a smoulder
ing mass of ruins. As there had been no
fire within a long distance of the shed,
there can be but one solution of the origin
of the fire, and that Is incendiarism.
The loss of the two machines with the
other property stored with them Is placed
at 53500, with 51500 Insurance. Mr. Nesbltt
had closed a successful season's run with
ono of the machines, but the loss Is great
er than his profits for the season. The af
fair has caused considerable excitement
here and a liberal reward Is offered for
the arrest and conviction of the incen
diary. Palouse has had a number of In
cendiary fires recently, but this is the
heaviest loss.
MINING IN CARIBOO.
Extensive Improvcmnts Planned at
Harper's Camp.
VICTORIA, B. a, Nov. 17. Senator
Campbell, Intimately connected with ex
tensive mining operations In the Cariboo
country, left last night for San Francisco
to consult with his company and place or
ders for a hoist to handle 10,000 pounds
and two water-skips with a capacity of
1000 gallons each to handle water in case
of an emergency in the Miocene Com
pany's three-compartment shaft at Har
per's Camp, Horsefly, which is now 560
feet deep. It is far the deepest shaft
ever sunk In Cariboo. In addition to car
rying on the regular mining work of the
company, Senator Campbell has arranged
to put on Horsefly Lake a steamer, the
plans of which were finished a week ago,
and the boiler and engine are now or
dered. A complete sawmill outfit will be
installed also at Harper's Camp. In con
nection with the steamboat company,
stores will be started at various points.
OREGON CITY ELECTION.
Interest Centers in ' the Fight for
Mayor.
OREGON CITY, Nov. 17. The city elec
tion Is only a little more than two weeks
distant, and, while no convention has
been held, the candidates who will en
ter the race are well known. Interest
centers In the fight for Mayor. Grant B.
Dlmlck, the present Mayor, Is a candi
date for re-election, and his most promi
nent opponent is J. Eugene Hedges. The
former is a Republican, while Hedges ls'a
Democrat, but politics cuts little or no
figure In an Oregon City municipal elec
tion. Both men are lawyers and have ac
tive supporters. Dlmlck was elected by
a large majority last year, but Hedges
is regarded as an exceptionally strong
ma'h. The contest Is sure to be a warm
one.
The matter of granting further privi
leges to the Portland City & Oregon Rail
way Company may be a prominent fac
tor. At the present time the validity of
the company's franchise to operate
freight cars on Main street Is being test
ed in the Circuit Court, and there is a
strong sentiment among the citi
zens against passing any ordinance to
give additional privileges to the railway.
Oregon City's Mayor has considerable ap
pointive power, as In him is vested the
charter right to appoint a City Attorney,
City Recorder, police force and Street
Commissioners, subject to confirmation by
the Council. He also names the Council
committees.
Three Councllmen retire In January, and
their successors will be chosen at the
coming election. The members whose
terms expire are Bruce Zumwalt, First
Ward; William Shekan, Second Ward; is.
D. Story, Third Ward.
John R. Humphreys, of the Bank of
Oregon City, Is the leading candidate for
Treasurer. At the last election Linn E.
Jones was elected without opposition. He
left the city last Spring, and since then
Mr. Humphreys has transacted the busi
ness of the office. His reputation In
financial matters is well known. F. J.
Myers, cashier of the Commercial Bank,
Is also mentioned for the position.
Phenomenal Memories.
Prof. E. S. Holden In Harper's Magazine.
Many of the greatest men have had
phenomenal memories. Caesar knew the
names of thousands of soldiers in his
legions. A modern man of science often
has a prodigious memory for special
terminology. Professor Asa Gray assured
me that he could at once recall the names
of something like 25,000 plants; Professor
Theodore Gill can do the same for fishes.
Our memory for mere words Is itself much
more extensive than is. generally admitted.
The average well-to-do child "of 2 years
of age has a vocabulary of some 500 words,
and Its father may have the command of
20,000 more. The 10.000 verses of the "Rig
Veda" have for 3000 years been accurately
preserved In the memories of the Brah
mins. Not one Brahmin alone, but thou
sands, can today recite it word for word.
Thousands of Mohammedans likewise
know the Koran by heart, as all learned
Chinese know their classic books. The
chiefs of Polynesia can and do repeat hun
dreds of thousands of words In their ge
nealogies, taking days, and even weeks,
for the recitation.
Hundreds of pianists can play all day,
and many days, by memory, and I have
myself seen Von Bulow conduct Beetho
ven's Fifth Symphony without a score.
Chessplayers, have a visualizing memory,
musicians have an auditive and a motor
memory, while arithmetical prodigies may
have any one of the three or a combina
tion of all.

THOUGHTS ON 1985 FAIR
BY ONE WHO WAS IN THE HEART
OF THE WORK AT BUFFALO.
Oregron Can Blaster Every One of the
Conditions Which Were Against
That Exposition.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9. (Special corre
spondence.) At the close of the Pan
American Exposition people scattered to
the four points of North and South Amer
ica. The closing scene was Indeed a sad
one. The exercises at the Temple of Music
just before midnight will never be forgot
ten by those present. When the"taps" In
the tower, far up In the heavens, slowly
died away with the lowering and extin
guishing of the lights, the little band of
Oregonlans stood on the esplanade and
with clasped hands bade good-bye to the
beautiful Illumination which had ever
been so grand and Inspiring. As the Ore
gonlans wended their way home, the con
versation was principally on the many
glorious results attained at the exposition.
They were far beyond expectations. All
day long for a week before the close we
received the congratulations of our neigh
bors and friends. No one seemed jeal
ous, but all said, "You deserved It" How
proud we were when Colonel Dosch was
called before the Pan-American Board
and given a medal for his part In prepar
ing an exhibit which had proven one of
the greatest attractions. Only two of
these special medals were given one to
Oregon and the 'other to New York. The
board remarked, In presenting the medal
to Mr. Dosch: "We have ever found the
Oregon people courteous, kind and pa
tient. Our relations with you have been
all that could be wished." We
who were associated with Mr. Dosch
from Oregon can truthfully feay that the
many successes attained at Buffalo were
due in a great measure to his executive
ability and his knowledge of how to place
and arrange our exhibits to the best ad
vantage. Oregonlans Hold a Reception.
On Friday evening before the exposition
closed, the Oregonlans held a reception, at
which were present: Colonel and Mrs.
Dosch, Miss Dosch, Miss Camllle Dosch,
Mr. and Mrs. Burgard, Mr. and Mrs. Mot
ter, Henry Blackman, A. W. Miller,
George Carter, George Slocom, Byron
Nicholas, Fred Mellls, A. H. Johnson, Mrs.
Clara Parsons, Miss Agnes Lane, Mr.
Finch, Mr. Fred Pfar, Mrs. Parrott Pond,
Mr. Will Wright, Mr. and Mrs. B. S.
Pague, Master Don Pague and Mrs. Edyth
Tozler Weatherred. Quite a number of
Buffalo people were also present, among
whom was Mrs. Tifft, mother of A. P.
Tlfft, of Portland, president of the Oregon
Commission. During the evening the
Oregon people at Buffalo presented Mr.
Dosch with a solid gold pen arM penhold
er as a token of the esteem In which they
held him. In responding to the presenta
tion speech Mr. Dosch highly compliment
ed the earnestness with which each and
all had worked.
Oregon began packing her exhibits im
mediately after the close of the exposition,
and will soon have them installed at
Charleston. Mr. Dosch will take his fam
ily with him. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mot
ter, Mr. Blackman and Mr. Carter will re
turn to Oregon. A. W. Miller has been
engaged to take charge of the "Washington
marble exhibit at Charleston. George
Slocom, A. H. Johnson, Fred Mellls and
Mrs. Weatherred will be with Mr. Dosch.
Mrs. Clara Parsons, who did such good
work with the teachers and pulplls In
showing the Oregon educational exhibit,
will go to Charleston in connection with
the general school display of the United
States. Miss Agnes Lane and Byron Nich
olas will each have a good position. Byron
Nicholas Is now visiting at Richmond, Va.,
and Charlottevllle. His relatives there are
relatives of Major William Hancock Clark
and of the noted Captain Clark.
If you think Portland can make a noise
after the result' of an election, add 100
times to that and you might Imagine what
It is at a New York election Arriving
at the ferry dock about 8:30 last Tuesday
evening, it beat anything I ever experi
enced. New York is noisy enough at any
time. The election results, however,
seemed to meet with the approval of the
masses.
Glad Oregon Is His Home.
The second day after my arrival In New
York Dr. and Mrs. Fenton reached here
from their European trip. They are very
happy to get back to America, and more
happy, they say, to realize that Oregon
Is their home. The doctor said to me:
"Do not ever think that Oregon Is be
hind the times. We have nothing of which
we need to be ashamed." On Thursday
we all went to Boston. At Boston the
Boston Press Club entertained us at din
ner. My. visit to Boston was to consult
with the secretary of the International
League of Press Clubs relative to final
arrangements for their trip to Oregon
next July. At the dinner I presented the
itinerary and told a few points of Interest
In the Northwest, all of which greatly
enthused the Boston editors. I am told
the only difficulty Is too many wish to go.
I am confident that this body of journal
ists will be one of the best that ever went
West. I have thought It would be a wise
and practical thing to have these Journal
ists take part in the laying of the corner
stone of the Lewis and Clark Centennial,
or, rather, the breaking of ground.
Much Interest in 1005 Fair.
Here, In New York and Boston, I find
much interest being taken in our exposi
tion. On Monday afternoon, before I left
Buffalo, I was Invited to visit the largest
school In Buffalo, where nearly 3000 schol
ars attend. In the large assembly hall
500 of the most advanced pupils had gath
ered with their teachers and the princi
pal of the school, to listen to the story
of Lewis and Clark's expedition to tne
Northwest. On this day I was asked by
the teachers If I would arrange for an
excursion of Buffalo teachers for a trip
West next Summer. So many people seem
anxious to visit the Northwest after hav
ing seen our exhibits at Buffalo. We have
been told that our exhibit would have
been considered a freak of nature if Wasti
Ington and Idaho had not also had excel
lent exhibits.
I have been reading in The Oregonian
of the Interest In the Lewis and Clark
Centennial. Do not let a moment be lost
In spreading the matter In the Northwest.
Oregon cannot miss this opportunity. Do
not be afraid of the proposition. Do not
use Buffalo as an example from the finan
cial standpoint. Too many conditions
were against Buffalo, every one of which
Oregon Is able to master. You have
everything In your favor. Personally, at
first, I was skeptical on the matter, but
after six months In the heart of the work
and doings of the Pan-American Exposi
tion, there Is not one unfavorable condi
tion for us.
Do not send off and knport high
salaried men. You have men In tne
Northwest who have your every Interest
at heart; men who will-not at all times
have the almighty dollar in view. Now
this Is an important factor. You will be
besieged by exposition "followers." Con
sider the matter well and have confidence
in your Western people to handle It. Buf
falo had too many Importations drawing
big salaries. Look to your commercial
and Industrial Interests, and not individ
ual gain. E. T. W.
Lost With All Hands.
HALLFAX N. S. Nov. 17. The terrible
gale that has been raging on the New
foundland coast during the past three
days has carried death and destruction
In Its track. Shipping has suffered se
verely as airesult of the storm, and many
lives have been lost. A private dispatch
which reached Louisburg, C. B., tonight
states that the Norwegian steamer Ella,
under charter to the Black Diamond Line
Company, has been lost on the Newfound
land coast In the vicinity of Belle Isle
with all hands. The steamer left Mon
treal Friday with a general cargo for
St. Johns, N. F. The Ella was 901 tons
register and was built at Sunderland in
1898. This was her last trip of the season
on that route. She carried a crew of
about 20 men.

Evening Bulletin.
MAY MEET IN PORTLAND
INTERNATIONAL MINING CONGRESS
LIKELY TO COME HERE.
Colonel J. T. Grayson Is Active in
Urging This City as Meeting
Place in September.
The International Mining Congress is
very likely to meet In Portland next Sep
tember, according to Colonel John Gray
son, one of the executive committeeman,
who la at the Portland. He thinks that
Portland can get the convention if her
citizens desire It, as it will not meet in
Butte, as had been decided, because Butte
failed to carry out the promises given to
the convention when it met in Boise,
Idaho, last July. Colonel Grayson, being
an Oregon mining man, desires very much
to have the congress here, as he wants
to show mlnlnir men what kind of ore
Oregon Is producing.
"Many of the delegates think Oregon is
a country of wheat, fruit and livestock,"
said he, "and they don't realize that it is
fast becoming the best ore-producing state
in the Union.
"I have today received a letter from the
secretary of the organization at Carlisle,
Pa., In which he says Portland stands a
good show for the meeting in September.
Wc met in July last, but have changed
the time of year, as that Is the hottest
month, and people do not enjoy traveling.
September will be a very pleasant month,
and, we will have mining men from all
over the world. Over 400 gathered at
Boise last Summer, but the number will
without doubt be Increased next time,
owing to the change In the time of meet
ing." OPEN DP THE COLUMBIA.
Inland Empire Shoald Demand Re
moval of Obstructions.
Ellensburg Localizer.
It is becoming more apparent every
year that a concerted effort should be
made by the people of the Inland Empire
to have the obstructions removed from
the Columbia River. This mighty stream,
that courses through the State of Wash
ington on Its way to the Pacific Ocean,
has innumerable possibilities for com
merce. It could be navigated from tho
British Columbia lino to the sea, If a few
obstructions were overcome, and these are
by no means engineering impossibilities.
Boats are now running, and have been
for years, on the "Upper Columbia above
Priest Rapids, doing a freight and pas
senger traffic. The Government has al
ready made some desirable Improvements
at Rock Island and Cabinet Rapids, In the
upper course of 'the river, which has been
an aid to navigation.
The Celilo Rapids, at The Dalles, and
Priest Rapids are at present the only seri
ous barrier to navigation on the Upper
Columbia In a long stretch of river, hun
dreds of miles In extent, and this obstruc
tion can be overcome by intelligent engi
neering; and with the obstructions re
moved from the lower river, we would
have a waterway 500 miles or more In
extent, penetrating a region of vast rich
ness In agriculture and mineral resources,
and connecting with the sea a people who
have grievously felt for years the neces
sity of cheaper transportation for their
produce.
It Is a thing hardly accountable that
this magnificent waterway has been so
long neglected by the Government, and
left practicayy closed to navigation on
account of only a very few obstructions
found at Intervals along its course.
The shippers of the vast empire con
tiguous to this majestic river are not
interested in making It navigable for
deep-sea vessels, and money expended In
the past by the Government for that pur
pose is practically useless to the pro
ducer. What is wanted is a river open
-for river boats, thus affording an outlet
for the products of the Inland Empire,
and give such competition in transporta
tion that will Inevitably compel the rail
roads to reduce their rates throughout this
vast region. Since Nature has so largely
provided the way, every energy should be
bent by the people toward Inducing Con
gress to take the matter up and make the
necessary appropriations.
Accidents to Steeple-Climbers.
Cromwell Ohllde In Leslie's Popular Monthly.
Accidents? Sure! I've fallen 125 teet.
A rope broke on me. And once a man I
had as assistant tried some funny busi
ness Instead of staying where I had told
him, and he was killed like a shot. But
there's no danger In high work if a man
doesn't drink or smoke and always keeps
his head clear. The main trouble I have
when I'm up high Is In keeping my mind
on what I'm doing. Sometimes I get to
thinking of other things while working J
along, ana suaaeniy x una 1 must pun
myself together. "See here, old man, this
won't do," I have to say to myself. If a
climber drinks or smokes, though, some
day something happens to him.
Here's a queer accident, though, that I
did have once. I was working on the
Inside of a high chimney, bolting together
sections of the lining, and I was pretty
well near the top. I was on a ladder up
against one side, and the ladder was so
fixed that I could raise or lower it and
myself as I wanted. Somehow I took hold
of the wrong end of the rope, let the ono
I ought to have held on to go. Quick as
a shot that ladder and I dropped. But

the rope It was passing through kept It
close to the wall, and I could hold on.
Fifty feet from the bottom It stopped
for a second with a crash. I had already
fallen nearly 100 feet. A now and extra
Inside lining began here, which made a
kind of ledge all round, and the ladder
had struck on the side of this. It fell
across the chimney. Being much longer
than the chimney was wide the upper part
broken off short. But there was enough
left for the broken end to fall on the
ledge made by the top of the lining on
the other aide. It rested there, but there
wasn't an Inch to spare. Through all the
three shocks I had managed to hold on.
If they had all come in one shock I could
never have held. But I Just managed to
keep my grip and the rope. I tied this
to the ladder as well as I could and let
myself down.
"Turn" nnd "Cue."
Notes and Queries. '
As a rule a performer waits for his
"turn" In the wings, having already been
"called" from the dressing-room. The
word Is almost exclusively In this sense
used In the music-halls and on the va
riety stage. On the stage proper tne
stage of the drama the word "cue" is
used. An actor waits at the wings for
his "cue," which is the last word of ttto
actor or actress speaking, which gives him '
his entrance, or which, supposing him
the performer to be on the stage, indi
cates to him that It is his turn to carry !
on the dialogue and the action of the play. J
"Extra turn" almost Invariably means J
that a new performer Is having his first !
public trial at that particular house. If he
goes well he Is tolerably sure of securing
an engagement.
