THE SIOHNISG OHEGOMAK, WEDNESDAY, MAY 28, 1902.
HITS HIS OWH PARTY
C, S, Wood Not in Sym
pathy With Democrats.
CANDIDATE FOR U. S. SENATOR
Disapproves Personal an A Defama-
torr Campaign Being "Wagred
Agrainst Famish Inclined to
Believe Williams "Will Win.
ASHLAND, Or., May 27. C. E. 8. "Wood,
whom the Democrats of Oreson have
named on their state ticket as a candi
date for United States Senator, -was here
this morning, en route to San Francisco,
-where he goes on legal business. He says
he only returned a few days since from, a
several months visit East, and has not
been back long enough to have a clear
opinion of the political situation, but that
the preponderance of expressed opinion of
others Inclines him to believe that George
H. WHllama will be elected Mayor of
Portland. He expressed no sympathy with
the personal and defamatory campaign
the Democrats are -waging against Mr.
Furnish. He believes a party should,
-when It has enunciated its principles, go
before the people and plead with them,
and net run away from them. Mr. "Wood
will not be heard on the stump for the
party -whose candidate he is for United
States Senator, for he is a -warm advocate
of the "scuttle" policy in the Philippines,
and -would take a firm stand on that ques
tion should he address the people.
FURNISH TO HIS TttADUCERS.
Big Bomb Is Exploded In. Camp of
Some Umatilla Men.
PENDLETON, Or., May 27. W. J. Fur
nish, Republican nominee for Governor,
last night exploded a bomb In the camp
of his enemies -and traducers in Umatilla
County. He branded as false and ma
licious' the report that he exacted excessive
fees while -acting as Deputy United States
Marshal, and referred in strong language
to the charges that had been made against
him while he -was Sheriff of Umatilla
County. Ho made the assertion that much
of this vilification had come on account
of defeated aspirations and Jealousy. This
was a shot at S. A. Lowell, -which -was
well received. Mr. Furnish made these
statements at the Republican demonstra
tion In his honor, -which was the greatest
in the history of Pendleton.
Mr. Furnish also landed a telling blow
upon the author of the charge that action
would be commenced against him to re
cover for Umatilla Count- certain ex
cessive fees charged when he -nas Sheriff
were it not for the fact that such action
"Was barred by the statute of limitation.
He declared In strong and unequivocal
language that tuch charge was absolutely
false, and made for political purposes. He
stated that the author of the charge knew
that it was false when he made It. This
was apparently directed to County Judge
George A. Hartman. and met with ap
proval. Mr. Furnish then brought down
the house when he stated clearly and
positively that he would waive the statute
of limitation and pay any judgment that
might be recovered against him and pay
all the expenses of the action, provided
that any Judgment was rendered in any
court of competent jurisdiction.
At the demonstration last night, there
were COO voters in line. The parade
started from the corner of Court and
Cottonwood streets a little before 8
o'clock, the Athena and Helix Cornet
Bands having previously been discours
ing music for nearly an hour. The
line of march was to Water street, thence
to Main, up Main to "Webb, countermarch
down Main to Court, thence to the Court
house. There were probably 1500 people
lining the sidewalks, while the air was
full of shouts for many things pertaining
to the candidates and to Republicanism.
William J. Furnish, Republican candidate
for Governor; A. M. Crawford, Republi
can candidate for Attorney-General, and
State Senator C. W. Fulton, of Astoria,
were in line. Every once In a while, as
they papsed along, there would be cheers
for "Billy Furnish." or "What's the mat.
ttr with Fulton?" "Hurrah for Craw
ford." At the Courthouse there was a
perfect jam. It was simply impossible
to get even standing room Hundreds
wended their way to the opera-house.
The meeting at the Courthouse was
called to order by Hon. L. B. Reeder,
Speaker of the last House of Representa
tives of the Oregon Legislature. In a
rpeech of a few words he announced that
It was not a duty, but an exquisite pleas
ure, to be able to introduce "the Slim
Cayuse of Umatilla," meaning Mr. Fur
nish. That gentleman delivered his speech
with considerable warmth, not only ac
cording to the thermometer, but from a
personal and political standpoint. He
promised whet he would do after he had
been elected Governor, and stated his po
sition in regard to many points. Among
other things he said he stood squarely upon
the platform adopted by the Republican
State Convention.
State Senator C. "W. Fulton made a
strong argument lor the election of the
straight Republican ticket upon political
lines, avoiding personalities and stick
ing to the platform. Mr. Fulton is ac
knowledged to be one of the best public
orators in the state, so it Is only neces
sary to say that the speech was one of
his best efforts and was received with
applause.
A M. Crawford, candidate for Attorney
General, was the first speaker at the
opera-house meeting. His remarks were of
such a character as to indicate that he
knows his business and will fill that office
acceptably. At this meeting' also standing
room was at a premium. Judge James A.
Fee presided. Mr. Furnjsh was greeted
with rousing cheers when he came in after
having finished his speech at the Court
house. He delivered the same speech
here. Other speakers were J. W. Scrlber,
of La Grande, candidate for JaJnt Sen
ator from Umatilla, Union and Morrow
Counties; G. W. Phelps, candidate for
Joint Representative from Morrow and
Lmatilla Counties, his home being at
Heppner; C. E. McCombcr. candidate for
Representative from Umatilla County. All
these latter speeches were brief, owing
to the lateness of the hour, but were
nevertheless interesting and entertaining,
the speakers appearing to advantage.
The -visitors said it was the greatest
political meeting that they have attended
at any place where they have been during
the campaign. It certainly made plain
how Umatilla will vote next Monday for
Its favorite son. Mr. Furnish's majority
will be something of which he may welt
be proud as showing how he stands at
home, where he has grown from boy
hood to manhood, and Is consequently best

CorandnmDIscovered by Accident in
Josephine Connty.
GRANT'S PASS. Or. May 27. U. C.
Perkins, a mining surveyor nnd engineer,
and D. H. Stovall, of this city, have -discovered
corundum, a hitherto unknown
mineral in Oregon, In the Slate Creek dis
trict, In northeastern Josephine County.
Perkins and Stovall accidentally made the
discovery of the corundum while exam
ining a newly found copper vein In the
Slate Creek Mountain. The locality In
which the new discovery is located Is a
highly mineralized mountain ridge above
Slate Creek, and Is at an altitude of sev
eral thousand feet. Tho general forma
tion of the mountain is serpentine, the
corundum occurring In small veins, cut
ting entirely through the mountain. The
corudum is found In its natural rhom
bohedral crystals, with tapering hexagonal
pyramids, some of which are of large size
and of good brilliancy.
In hardnces, corundum Is excelled only
by the diamond. It Is this qualification
that gives the common variety Its com
mercial value. In color. It is white, blue,
red, violet, yellow and gray. It Is the
last four of these colors that are highly
prized as gnms, the blue being the sap
phire, the violet the amethyst, the red
the ruby or garnet, and the yellow the
topaz. Only the white or more common
variety of corundum has thus far been
found In the Josephine discovery, with
the exception of the garnet, a float crystal
of which was found In the gulch below
the point where the veins were uncovered.
The white, or opaque corundum has con
siderable commercial value. Pulverized,
It is used for polishing other gems, fine
steel instruments, pointing tools and for
glasscutters.

of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a
shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women
