8 THE MORNING OEEGONIAN, TUESDAY, APRIL 8, 1902, COHEN FOR SENATOR Suggestion That Police Com missioner Run. URGED AS AN IDEAL CANDIDATE Represents the Inte Simon Issue, and Would, ir Elected, Vindicate the Senator What Fnsionists Will Do. The friends of Senator Simon -who have united with the ever-willing Democrats la an effort to bring about a grand vindica tion of that statesman will. It Is believed by some people, undoubtedly demand the nomination of D. Soils Cohen as the Pusion candidate for State Senator- Al though It is not known whether "or not Mr. Cohen has been approached on the BUbject, there Is little doubt that he would accept the honor, not only on his own account, but because he would feel that none of Mr. Simon's friends and fellow .workers would more fittingly stand for the principles for which the Senator went down to defeat. Mr. Cohen Is essentially a Simon man; he has served with, his doughty chieftain in many a long cam paign, has tasted with him the sweets of victory, and has received at his hands many large portions of pie, at one of which he is still nibbling. It Is felt by Mr,. Co hen's admirers on the police force and in other Simon-conferred offices that he should be given this nomination before all other men, and that his election, provid ing he gets one, will be the most complete vindication of Slrnonlsm and the most gratifying tribute to the Senator that can J8 arranged. It is urged that Mr. Cohen Is qualified in every way for the office for which he may be a candidate. He is an orator of no mean ability, a stump speaker with a never falling fund of defense for any cause he advocates, and best of all a Po lice Commissioner. Further than that Mr. Cohen is an excellent hand at blushing lor his party, and it is likely that there rwill be a great deal of that to do in the case of the Fusionists. It was Mr. Cohen iwho first or somewhere near the first suggested the idea of fusion an. Idea nvhlch is always welcome to the majority of the Democrats, who place hope of suc cess above party whenever they are able to see a glimmer of it. As minister pleni potentiary and envoy extraordinary of Mr. Simon he conducted the first negotiations with leaders of the local democracy, and 5s said to have suggested a number of names which would be acoptatole to him and to Mr. Simon. After these prelimin aries had been arranged, however, the Democrats suggested to Mr. Cohen that the interests of fusion might be furthered 5f he went 'way back and sat down,' and he has since kept well In the back ground, his only Democratic confrere be ing Sam Wolf, who has once more blos somed out as a maker of Democratic his tory. The reins of the Simon cart are now In the hands of Donald Mackay, and it is to him the unterrifled come when they feel immediate need of a guide, phi losopher and friend of Republican procliv ities. Mr. Mackay has not yet announced that he will support Mr. Cohen for the State Senatorial nomination, but as he knows that the Police Commissioner "will e highly acceptable to the ruling spirit of the malcontents, he will probably do bo when the proper time arrives. As negotiations progress, it becomes evi dent that the fusion fledglings are begin ning to crowd the Democratic birds out of the nest; in other words, instead of mildly accepting such offices as the Demo crats eee fit to give them they have be gun to demand nearly everything in sight. Already they are clamoring for places on the Legislative ticket, and their allies, fearful lest the police force and other ad juncts of the Slmonites intend to accord but mild support to the mixed" ticket, have yielded. Place after place has been given up by the Democrats, until they are lharrassed by the fear that there will be really two Republican tickets in the field, he weaker of which the valiant Democ racy has been pledged to support. The idea of making a straight Democratic legislative ticket disappeared early in the game, although there Is- some talk of putting up Charles E. Ladd as State Sen ator in case the friends of Mr. Cohen do not succeed in securing that nomination ior him. When asked by an Oregonian man yesterday if he would accept the nomination Mr. Ladd said that he would answer the question if put by a Democrat rwho spoke as one having authority, put that he had no answer for The Oregonian other than that no one with the right to make etfch an offer had spoken to him about it. There is still J. J. Drlscoll, but ;be seems not to be in great iavor with flils party, and will be put up only In case no one else can ,be found. The candidates who have already been men tioned for the Fusion nominations are still after the various places they covet, with the , addition of several fresh aspirants from the Simon ranks. The news has reached the Fusion camp that the Demo crats are afraid of them and "willing to yield almost anything in exchange for their support, and they are following up until April 12, when the Democratic City land County Convention will reconvene. 3eween note and then there will be a 3ong series of conferences between Mr. Mackay and leading Democrats, and It is ihoped by that time to have the list ready rfor ratification. Whether It will be ratt led or not remains to be ?een. for there Is no telling what will happen in a Demo cratic convention, however watched and tended by careful bosses. WHO STARTED THE YARNS ? Pilot Commission . Proposes Conun drum About Hot Stories. The board of trustees of the Chamber of Commerce has received a letter from the State Board of Pilot Commireioners in reply to Its inquiries about the state ments of pilots that there was only 17 feet of water on the Columbia River bar when the best evidence showed that such was not the case. The Commissioners', through their secretary, W. T. Chutter, declared that they were unable to explain the origin of the reports. In his letter to the Pilot Commission ers, Secretary Ruell, of the Chamber of Commerce, said In part: "It Is a fact that we all must admit that the condition of the bar Is far from being as favorable as It might be. How ever, reports that make the bar worse than It really is work Injury at all times to the Columbia River, and especially when circulated by the bar pilots. They keep our shipping interests In a state of uncertainty and .dread, and drive vessels away from our port." The answer of the Pilot Commissioners was as follows: "Your letter of the 3d Inet to the State Board of Pilot Commissioners has been handed to me to answer, and in reply will say that we have taken the matter up with the pilots, and find that Pilot Cann. who brought In the steamship Quito, has written to you in advance, answering It fully. There evidently must be a reason on the part of some person, or persons, for the circulation of these reports, and I am beginning to doubt very much whether the reports are entirely true, find If not, I am at a loss tc know the object in mak ing them. "In regard to the reports from the cap tain of the steamship Quito, wherein be says the bar was perfectly smooth, I un derstand that the weather reports say that the bar was very rough In the morn ing, and reports It as being rough later on In the day, so If one part of this report Is proven false it Is quite likely, in my judgment, the balance Is. "I cannot see what benefit It Is to the pilots to keep making these reports, and then contradicting them, and I think it would be far better for the captains of ships to make their reports before leaving port, so that we could bring the pilot and them face to face In the matter. These reports generally come to the commission some time after the captain has left the port, and I cannot understand the reason of !L I can assure you that the commis sion Is willing to assist you In all mat ters that will benefit the commerce of this state. If we are given the opportunity and deem it consistent, and I would like to ask you as a personal favor what object do you thlrk a pilot can have In making these reports and then contradicting them, as it is too deep for me." PAPER FIGHTS THE UNION New 'York Commercial Has Trouble With Its Men. The New Tork Commercial, a paper which once secured a number erf advertise ments from Portland merchants under the pretense that It would publish matter set ting forth the resources of the city and state, and which failed to keep Its prom ises, is In the throes of a great strike. The Commercial recently refused to meet union requirements, and the famous "Big Six" Typographical Union called out Its men. The walk-out evidently troubled the Commercial to a great extent, for in Its number of April 2 It devotes a space of more than a column, under scare head lines, to "Big Six" and all who are af filiated with it. Here are a few of its choice effusions against its former work men and the union generally: "Flushed with its victory over the Sun, 'Big Six now turns its attention to smaller game, and with all the contempt ible tricks known to small minds It starts in to harass and annoy the Commercial and Price Current. Its flipt card was to buy off some of the employes, for which noble purpose the sum of $2000, we have been told, was appropriated. One man was offered $500 to quit his job. but he politely declined. He Had had his fill of the union, and wa6 too much of a man to be a party to such methods. ... At the appointed time the stereotypers on the Price Current quit work without a word of warning. Here the dignity of labor at once asserted it self, and the Napoleonic strategy of the generals in charge of the campaign was sprung upon the unsuspecting publishers. With keen foreslsht they carried off Qr hid tools used In making-stereotype plates, from which the papers are printed. One might say that any common thief could have done that without a board of strat egy sitting at headquarters to direct the movement. But see the Foxy Qulller acu men, the massive brain and eagle eye which had the devilish Ingenuity to sug gest the salting of the paste used for making the matrices, which rendered the paste useless. "Some person even went a step farther and forged the name of the business man ager of the Commercial to a telegram sent to the homes of men who had been engaged to take the strikers' places. These telegrams read: I have men enough for tonight.' " " . . . But the manager of the Com mercial remembers that in July last, when the first strike occurred, a threatening mob gathered about the building every night. Attempts were made to throw ob stacles into the press to ruin it and pre vent the printing of the paper. The mall wagons were crippled. The horses' har ness was cut, so that when the run was made to catch the trains the wagons broke down. Nuts were taken off the wheels, thereby endangering the lives of those in the wagons. Attempts were made to enter the office and destroy property, and ever trick of a narrow and depraved intellect was resorted to In the effort to cripple the office and force a surrender to 'Big Six.' "The same tactics are to be expected in the present campaign, for the Typo graphical Board of Strategy is still in session in Chambers street." EDITORS SOON TO GO. Gathering: Here for Pilgrrimage to Hot Springs, Ark. The delegates from the. Pacific North west and Alaska who will attend the 17th annual meeting of the National Editorial Association, to be held at Hot Springs, Ark., April 15-18, have begun to arrive In Portland. F. B. Evans, of Paisley, Or.. and A. G. Beach, of Lakevjew, Or., came yesterday, having traveled four days by stage, over muddy country roads, In orde to join the delegation. Next Thursday is the day set for their departure. Hereafter only state associations will be admitted to membership In the National association. District and city associations will be known as subordinate, state as grand, and the National association as su preme. However, city and district organ izations already holding memberships will still retain them. The Portland associa tion participated In the first National or ganization at New Orleans In 1SS5, and will still be a member of the supreme as sociation. At the reception to be held In St. Louis on April 22, an effort will be made by the Northwestern delegation to Induce the association to use Its influence toward securing postponement of the St. Louis Exposition from 1203 to 1904. It Is believed that If the St. Louis Fair be postponed, ending In November, 1964, a number of the large shows and other at tractions such as are found present at all great fairs would naturally come to Port land to Winter, in order to be on hand for the 1903 Centennial. On April 25, Oregon day at the exposition, F. J. Parker, of Walla Walla, chairman -of the 'World's Fair Commission from the State of Wash ington, will deliver an address on the "1903 Centennial." Albert Tozlcr, president of the National Association, will also speak. His subject will be "Oregon." The fol lowing Is a list of those who will leave for Hot Springs on Thursday next: Will A. Steel.

For ConRhs and Colds in Children. "I have not the slightest hesitancy in recommending Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy to all who are suffering from coughs or colds," says Chas. M. Cramer, Esq., a well-known watchmaker of Colombo, Cey lon. "It has been eome two years since the City Dispensary first called my at tention to this valuable medicine and I have repeatedly used It and It has always been beneficial. It has cured me quickly of all chest colds. It is. especially ef fective for children and seldom takes more than one bottle to cure them of hoarseness. I have persuaded many to try this valuable medicine, and they are all as well pleased as myself over the results." For sale by .all druggists. TALKED ON GOLDEN RULE PORTLAND MINISTERS HAVE AN IN TERESTING SESSION. One Brother Js Opposed to Chinese Exclusion Act Proposed Meet ings at Chautauqua. Notwithstanding the inclement weather, the regular monthly meeting of the Port land Ministerial Association was well at tended yesterday morning. Fully 30 members were present when President Cllne called the assembly to order, and stated, atter the reading of the minutes, that It had been proposed to hold a min isters" session during the Chautauqua gathering at Gladstone Park. Mr. Cllne said such a session would t)e of great ben efit to the ministers, and that arrange ments for it should lie made. He sug gested that a committee, consisting pf one member from each denomination, be appointed to Investigate the matter, and to make a report. After a brief discus sion of the matter, the president's sug gestion was adopted, and a committee was appointed as follows: J. H. Gibson, United PresDyterlan; J. J. Staub, Congregational; A. Esson. Chris tian; C A. Prleslng, German Methodist; W. T. BIggers; African Methodist; J. W. Wright, African Methodist Episcopal; J. A. Leas, English Lutheran; J. P. Price, Friends or Quakers; O. W. Plummer, PvRnSnn ATnT.nn.'TT w rX' Evangelical Association; H. W. HaBlen, Free Methodist; H. A. Deck. United Evan gelical; Stanley C. Lapham, Baptist; &L D. McCIellan, Presbyterian; L. E. Rock well. Methodist; J. J. Dalton, Cumberland Presbyterian. - The committee will meet at 1:0 o'clock today to arrange a pro gramme for the session. This business finished, the order of the day was taken up. The subject was "The Golden Rule What Does It Mean?" A paper treating of the subject was pre sented by Rev. J. R. McGlade. of Mlz pah Presbyterian Church. Mr. McGlade considered the golden rule from a number of viewpoints, and he briefly .mentioned the conditions which would prevail were th,e rule placed in effect. There would be no misunderstanding between nations, be tween such men ay Sampson and Schley, between General Miles and the President. He had heard that at a business men's Sunday school class In an Eastern city the class had been asked If It were pos sible to conduct business under the golden rule. The class answered In the negative. Yet some great business men in the East, vhn nr nrnminontiv rintiflw tciTi tha ' churches, have said that the golden rule fl?r managers do not introduce their best is the foundation of business. Their side s,rls ,T. any sirl? ? fiends is be of the story was clearly presented by Mr. c?";f, theyItaKreafra d, of losin& tne,r 0Wn McGlade. and when he concluded a dls- j. chances with the girls. cussion arose.

A , t drastic features of the proposed law should Tne caEC of -delaine Harrington against be eliminated. Its passage would be a concession to. the demands of the Ignorant masses, who, if they were granted leeway. L would change the whole structure of the Government. The Supreme Court would bo made a popular institution, and the poor, converted Chinese who came to this nnnntrv Tt'mt1 e rofneivl TonfUnir o(mn1 nrQitec tho mnceAv AIA nn itront tliAm ' here. It would be something awful to have a number of Chinese who had been taught the religion of Christ come to a port and be told that they would have to return home because the people did not want them. Dr. E. P. Hill, pastor of the First Pres byterian Church, did not jknow why the Chinese matter had been brought up. No one had Introduced It. Turning to church matters, Dr. Hill said the effort to convert non-Christians should be more general. To follow the golden rule strict ly one pastor should not steal from the flock of another. He would not move a step iu order to gain an accession from another denomination. Such an action ,.Vi Y.iA YvrJ . mn,.nVn would not help the forward movement of Christianity, and It would not add to the strength of a church. The wcrk of the rastors should lie with non-Christians. Dr. Alexander Blackburn, pastor of the First Baptist Church, took another view of the matter. A generation of people without religious convictions was arising. Efforts should be made to convert all, and a persoH who departed from his creed should be accepted by a pastor of another church. If any member of his church should leave he would have no complaint to make, but he would like to have their names so that he would not be compelled to carry them on his book. , Brief remarks were made by President Cllne, Dr. Starr and others, and further discussion was postponed until the next meetlLg.

Lazy floor managers at dances were se verely scored yesterday by a young man who was telling his experiences in a Washington-street cigar store. "I was at two club dances this past week; and the floor managers were the laziest fel- lows I ever saw," he stated. "They had L ambition in view-to, get partners for kthl ,. nnrt ,.f tha t. nr.aat,nn themselves and let the rest of creation hustle. One of the crowd asked me to the dance, and told me he would Intro duce me to some of the girls. Well, he Introduced me to one girl, and as the other floor managers were invisible all the evening, I only got two dances," as I could not dance with the same girl all the night. Other fellows who came 'stag' were treated the same way, and they were. not Introduced to partners, and the girls were not'lntroduced to them. We sat like jays, lookfng at each other. There was nobody to Introduce us. It was the worst roast I ever got, and I and several of the boys left early. Next day I met my friend the floor manager, and when I told him about the trouble, he said: 'What do you want, anyway? Do you want me to provide you with partners as well as a ticket?' I said: 'Young fellow, the next time you catch me going to a dance managed by kids, you can call the cigars on me. The trouble Is, you fellows don't know how to run a. dance. You're too young.' " Similar experiences were given by two other young men present, and the opinion seemed to be- that the reason the Pacific States Savings. Loan & Build Ing Company, to compel the company to cancel a mortgage on a house and lot In East Portland Heights, was heard by Judge Scars yesterday, and a decision was rendered In favor of the plaintiff. The only evidence offered was concern ing some taxes which the company paid. The Supreme Court having decided against building and loan companies In numerous cases recently,, the company did not consider that It would do any good to make a defense, and so didn't make any. Mrs. Richardson borrowed $1000, and the defendant calculated that It would take $1829 to pay the loan, and alleged that she still owed $495. She offered to pay $75, which thj court found was suf ficient; so she saved $400. William Reid appeared as plaintiff's attorney. In the suit of John B.
