Republicans Will Be Elected,
- .But What Then?
PRESTON AND THE RAILROADS
Hest of the Legislative Candidates
Are ii Strongly AntI -Wilson Mc

SEATTLE; Oct. 12. (Special.) In King
County the political campaign or nas
' progressed far enough to make possible
a fairly comprehensive and accurate f-ore-
cast or the November elections. There Is
no doubt whatever that King County will
noil thiB vear the largest vote In . its
history, there being already in Seattle a
registration approaching 20,000. The
county will go Republican by 2500 to 3000
majority on the county ucKet, wim an
equal showing for the Republican Con
gressional candidates". s
Here in Seattle the campaign Issues are
sharply defined between, the Republicans
and the Democrats, for in this city are
located the state committee headquarters
of both parties. Probably one of the most
Interesting facte to be reported of the
campaign in this state Is the entire ab
ence of any element of Populism In the
State at large. This is the more remark
able when It Is recalled that only six
years ago in the state election in Wash
ington the Populists swept the state as
a tidal wave, electing the Populist candi
date for Governor by over 12,000 majority,
and at the 6ame time choosing a State
Legislature in which jthe Populists were
In the majority over the aggregate vote
of the Democrats, Republicans and sliver
men in that body. Except In one or two
eastern counties the Populists have no or
ganization. The state committee has dis
banded, and the Populist workers who1 a
few years ago were loudly aggressive in
every county in the state have dlsap--peared.
So certain are the Republicans of elect
. ing the entire Legislative ticket in King
County that even though the campaign Is
approaching its perihelion there is more
interest today in the coming Senatorial
fight at Olympla than in any other one
feature of politics. Tho Legislative ticket
is pledged by the Republican County Con
vention to work and vote for the elec
tion of Harold Preston, the King County
Senatorial candidate. The delegation will
number 25 men, "being therefore the larg
est county delegation in the Legislature.
The delegation, however, is unpledged
absolutely on the railway commission is
sue, and it is practically certain that a
majority of the delegation will vote
against the organization of the Legisla
ture in the interest of the McBrlde policy.
In . opposing the railway commission
scheme, which the Governor has made
the "paramount issue" in the campaign,
"the King County legislators will be fol
lowing out the sentiment of the Republi
cans of this county.
How seriously this fact will affect Mr.
Preston can scarcely be guessed at at this
time. Mr. Preston is unalterably
pledged to support McBrlde and the com
. mission bill, and It seems probable that
"his candidacy will be bound up with the
Governor's fight when the first clash
comes at Olympla in the organization of
tho House and Senate. Naturallv. then
tho antl-commleslon and railway forces
wilt "be massed solidly against' the King
' County candidate. These lines may be
broken in some places, "It is true, but if
the frame-up of the McBrlde-Preston
combination at the recent Tacoma state
convention Is any criterion, there will be.
a pretty clear array of forces along the
lines indicated.

ence which the railway fight will have on
mi. xTcawn s canaiaacy. locally. Inter
est is now centered upon the attitude, of
the King County Republican Legislative
delegation, even though the election is
three weeks off. For, as a matter of fact,
the ticket Is regarded already as elected.
Of the 25 Republican Legislative nom
inees in this county there are only three
or four advocates of the appointive com
mission measure. The delegation Is over
whelmingly opposed to the McBrlde pol
icy.. If, at the County Convention last
June, when the ticket was nominated, the
commission issue hod been raised, the Mc
Brlde policy would have been overwhelm
ingly turned down. The chairman of that
convention, Samuel H. Piles, is the at
torney for the Pacific Coast Company
which owns two or three small railroads.

antl-McBrlde forces -at the Taooma state
convention. As chairman of the Kins
County convention he had the naming of
the committee of five which selected the
K delegates to the state convention. Un
der the circumstances It was natural to
Presume that the delegation would be
friendly to the railroads, but,- by aW
shrewd move, Mr. Preston succeeded to
one ' hSf ?MJeP f namine Penally
deleffatIon to Tacoma. Mr.
Humphrey, the candidate for Conjrress
who was friendly to the railroad totS
est, nned the other half of thedeleS
tlon. This was last June. It was sun
that not more than one-third of the dele
gation would be found to adSe

The Line-Up on Senator.
Will Mr. Preston be able to do as well
with tho Legislative delegation to Olym
pla? This is a question that is now
causing the most intense interest in this
county. It can scarcely be answered in
the affirmative, at least at this time.
Of the sir Senatorlal'nominees, all, save
one. are pro-rallroaid. They are equally
antl-Wllson, so that the Inference may
safely be drawn that should Mr. Preston
fall in landing jthe Senatorshlp, the best
part of the delegation will go to Levi An
keny, of Walla Walla.
In the Thirtieth District Dr. J. J. Smith,
the nominee, who has already served a
short term In the Senate, is against Mc
Brlde s policy. He will have an easy vic
tory, as the district is largely Republican.
In the Thirty-first District A. T. Van De
Vander has a closer fight, but is certain
of election. He is anti-commission, and"
is no friend of John L. Wilson. In the

George U. Piper, the Senatorial candi
date in the Thlrty-fdurth District,' voted
against the McBrlde appointive measure
ML tUe Tacoma convention. His district
is Republican by from 200 to 600. and there
t absolutely no doubt of his election.
This statement is made In the face of
the fact that ex-Governor John H. Mc
Graw, who resides with Mr. Piper In the
Fourtfr Ward, is opposing the regular
nominee. Governor McGraw is not fol
lowed by any considerable number of Re
publican workers, and his bolt will do
comparatively little damage. The ex
Governor's friends are non-plussed at his
attitude, in. view of the experience he had
with bolters in the gubernatorial election
of 1892, when Nelson Bennett, of Tacoma,
then National committeeman and propri
etor of the Tacoma Ledger, actively sup
ported H. J. Snively, the Democratic can
didate for Governor.
Tho-Thirty-fifth District, where W. G
Potts is a candidate, Is Republican by 500
majority. Potts Is a young man In pol
itics, but is a conservative business man.
He is one of the original Preston men in
-this county. It Is believed that he will
vote against the' McBrlde measure, but
his course, should Senator Preston be de
feated, cannot be predicted. In the Thirty-sixth
District, R. M. Klnnear, the Sen
atorial nominee, will have 400 majority,
and will vote against the commission
measure. He has always opposed John L.
Wilson to this county. In the Thirty-seventh
District, E. B. Palmer, Senatorial
nominee, will be saved by the overwhel
ming Republican vote of the district He
is a rabid Wilson man, and, as a member
of the House In 1899, was one of two King
County delegates to bolt the instructions
of the county convention, which indorsed
Mayor Humes for Senator.
'The Legislative Candidates.
In the following list of Legislative can
didates there are two who are outspoken
ly favorable to . the McBrlde measure,
namely. R. W. Jones and William H.

District:

The county ticket from John Wooding,
nominee for Sheriff, down to the candi
date for Wreckmaster, will bo overwhel
mingly victorious. The Democratic cam
paign Is being conducted in a half-hearted
manner. The Democratic managers are
-up against a normal, Republican majority
of upwards of 3000. Their sole hope is to
try to elect Sheriff Cudihee, a popular
official, but without sufficient strength to
carry the load which he 1b under.
END OP PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD.
Eastern Oregon Jurisdiction Divided
Meet Next at Corvallis.
GRANT'S PASS, Or., Oct 12. (Special.)
The 12th annual session of the Oregon
synod of the Presbyterian Church, which
convened in this city last Thursday, came
to a close tonight This session Is pro
nounced a successful one in every par

meeting, and will depart for their homes
tomorrow. In appreciation of the good
treatment accorded them here, the visit
ing members adopted -resolutions thank
ing the citizens of Grant's PasB for the
hospitality shown.
The next session of the synod will be

place will be fitting for the synod's ses
sion. Tonight's meeting was devoted to homer
missions. Rev. A. J. Irwin presided. An"
able and Instructive address was given by
Dr. E. J. Thompson, of Independence.
Bcv. D. O. Ghornjley, of Portland, presi
dent of the Home Mission board, also de
livered an address. The church was filled
to overflowing, as it was at this morning's
meeting, when Dr. Edgar P. Hill, of Port
land, preached one of the most able ser
mons ever heard in this city.
At the closing business session of the
synod a petition was presented begging
for a division of the Eastern Oregon pres
bytery. The petition was granted. The
permanent and standing committees for
the coming year were elected and the old
ones discharged. Rev. J. H. Mllligan was

ance. The school Is In need of more funds
for the Improvement of the main build
ing and dormitory.
The report of the committee on home
missions showed that nine-tenths of the

ence to the funds of the Home Mission
board. More than 1300 missionaries -are
commissioned and at work In the several
synods of America. Seventy churches
were organized last year.
Communion was administered this after

24 CENTS FOR HOPS.
And tlie Onvner Would "ot Sell
Choice Product Held.
SALEM, Oct 12. CSpecial.) Harvey
Colle, of Liberty, was yesterday ottered
21 cents per pound for his hop crop, but
refused the offer. The hops are what
may be called fancy goods. Dealers re
port that most of the hops that are
changing hands are only prime In qual
ity, while the owners of choice hops are
firm holders. The figure for prime hops
Is 21 cents, while 23 and a little better is
offered for choice. The Fink crop at Dal
las and the Colle crop at Liberty are the
only ones so far as learned that have re
ceived offers better than 23" cents.
' How Marlon County Farms Sell.
SALEM, Pet 12. (Special.) William
Galr has sold his farm of S20 acres south
of Salem for $10,000. The purchaser wa
W. H. Gerbenhorst, a recent arrival from
Webster County, Iowa. The stock and
machinery on the place sold for $3000.
This farm is generally known as the
Frank C. Baker farm. Mr. Galr bought
It three years ago, paying $10,000 for the
farm .stock and machinery. He ha
therefore cleared $3000 on the Investment,
besides taking off three crops. This
transaction shows something of the ad
vance that has taken place in farm values
to this section to the last three years.
Growers Hold Their Hops.
INDEPENDENCE. Oct 12. (Special;)
The hop market here Is practically sta
tionary and, as a rule, sampling is tho
order of the day on the part of the hop
buyers. There seems to be a decided
opinion among the growers that prices
will advance la a. few weeks, hence they
hold on to the crop.
CLARK COUNTY PRUNE CROP;
About 150 Cars Produced Drying
Season Closed.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. Oct 12. Prune
drying, which has been in full operation
in this county during the past two weeks,
is about finished. Owing to the short
crpp, the drying season this year only
lasted 10 to 20 days, about one-half- the
time required to cure the crop to a good
season. The output will he about 150 car
loads, or about half a crop.
The fruit generally Is of good quality, a
large proportion grading out 30 to 40 to
tho pound, bringing 4 cents In the mar
ket The greater portion- of the crop is
already sold, most of it going to Porter
Bros, and the Kelly Clark packing-houses
here, both of which commenced packing
and shipping prunes last week. A large
number of dryers closed down yesterday
and today, and the remainder throughout
the county will cease operations the com
ing week.

ASHLAND, Or., Oct 12. (Special.) The
rush of timber land locators continues
without abatement and the members
seeking claims In the yellow and. sugar

expected that -more people will follow
them.
Another large crowd of locators left
two days ago for a new timber section In
the vicinity of Summer Lake, and they
will be followed by others to the same

J. G. Jodon, Formerly of This City,
Instantly Killed In Collision.
SACRAMENTO, Oct 12. (Special.)
Locomotive Engineer John G. Jodon, of
Sacramento, formerly, of Portland, Or.,
was Instantly killed "in a railroad colli
sion at Lakovlew, three miles east of
Summit, on the Central Pacific line of the
Southern Pacific road at 10:20 last night.
Fireman John E. Cllne, who was with
Engineer Jodon. was caught between,
the engine andT"tender, and it was feared
that he would be scalded to death by
steam, but by almost superhuman efforts
the trainmen succeeded In raising the
tender and he was alive, though Insensi
ble, when released. It . is hoped -that he
will survive,
The collision was caused by Engineer
Jodon, of No. 206, which was east bound,
overrunning his switch three car lengths
Just as No. 207, west bound, was coming
along the main line. Both were heavy
freight trains, and, although they were
running at a comparatively slow rate,
the impact was terrible, the cab of the
east-bound engine being crushed like an
eggshell. As the west-bound engine struck
the engineer's side of the east-bound en
gine, Jodon was pinned between the mas
sive machines and crused to death.
It Is believed that he had time to realize
the danger, and possibly could have saved
himself by jumping from the engine, but
that would have left the entire train to
an inevitable fate, or still more disas--.
trous collision and wreck, thus endanger
ing the lives of all the trainmen. Like
a brave man, Jodon stood by his post of
duty, his hand upon the throttle, man
fully doing his best- to check the speed
of his train, when death called him.
The idea that Engineer Jodon had used
all his power to slacken the momentum
of his engine Is borne out by the fact
that aside from the smashing of the fore
parts of the engines, very little damage
was done. Only two freight cars were de
railed, and the engines are tnot seriously
damaged.
Engineer Jodon reft a family living at
614 Fifteenth street; in this city,' and was
extremely popular with his friends and
companions.
The Coroner of the locality of the col
lision took charge of the remains of the
dead engineer.
(Engineer Jodon is a son of Mrs. Jodon,
living on East Eighteenth street, this
city. He resided at Sacramento, and wa3
in Portland last June on a visit to his
family. He was well known here, and
had many "friends -who will mourn hi
tragic death.)
TEMPEST IN M'MINNVILLE.
Temperance Alliance. Alleges
Sa-
loons Violate Law. -M'MINNVILLE,
Oct 12.-(Special.)
The Temperance Alliance promises to
make life interesting for both the saloons
ahd the members of the City Council.
The president of the Alliance has been
collecting evidence against the saloons, as
It Is an open secret that the saloons have
been keeping open on Sundays and selling
liquor to minors. The city ordinance pro
vides that If any saloonkeeper shall sell
liquor to a minor or keep open on Sundav,
his license shall be revoked for one year
Professor Rutherford, the president of
the Alliance, having collected his evi
dence, went before the Council last Tues
day, in company with President Board
man, and submitted it The Councllmen
sat dumb, and the Mayor finally called
for new business, nnd hntVi poMa
Boardman and Professor Rutherford were
compelled to leave.
From personal Interviews, It is learned
that Councllmen Harding, Newell, Rum
mel and Burns are men of duty, and If
they can be convinced that It Is their
duty to revoke the licenses of the saloons,
they will do so. Councilman Gee wants
to reform the saloonkeepers by giving
them another show, and Oonnrfimnn
Jones wants to let them alone so lohg as
the saloons pay their revenue.
Four of the five saloons are said to have
been "found open on Sunday and selling
liquor to minors, and the other. It is said,
was caught selling to a minor next day
(Monday). J
The charter does not provide any other
method whereby saloonkeepers breaking
the ordinance shall be punished. The Al
liance intends to proceed against the sa
loons, and also against the members nf
Nthe Council, should they refuse to revoke
the licenses of the offenders. A tho m-,,
election Is near at hand, the matter prom
ises to be very Interesting.

EDITOR. SHOOTS A PHYSICIAJV.
Fatal Quarrel Over a French "Woman
of Butte.
BUTTE Mont., Oct. 12. Editor J. W
Kelley, of tho Inter-Mountain, last night
shot Dr. A. H. Cayley. a -prominent resi
dent of Butte. Cayley. it is believed, will
die. Officers are searching for Kelley, and
it is believed he will be apprehended -before
many hours pass.
The shooting occurred between 11 and
12 o'clock last nightt but so quiet was the
affair kept that the police did not hear
of it until late this evening. Kelley, It
Is said, suspected an Intimacy between a
woman of whom he was enamored and
Dr. Cayley, and Saturday night he lay In
hiding and surprised the two in the
woman's room and Immediately opened
fire. The first shot went wild and
Cayley, springing from the bed, grappled
with Kelley, but was felled by a
blow from the butt of Kelley's re
volver. x With the man prostrate on the
floor Kelley again fired, the bullet taking
effect In Cayley's shoulder. The missile
was deflected by the shoulder-blade and
ranged down, passing through the left
lung and stopping near the "spinal cord,
completely paralyzing the left side of the
victim.
At a late hour tonight the doctors ex
press no hope for" Cayley's recovery.
Kelley Is still at large5 and Is believed
to be hiding in the city. His escape is
believed to be impossible, as all avenues
of egress from the city are carefully

University of Oregon Schedule.
UNIVERSITY .OF OREGON, Eugene.
Oct 12'. (Special.) Manager Wright, of
the University of Oregon football team,
Is having some difficulty in one or two
instances to get his schedule of games ar
ranged. Negotiations are still pending
with the manager of the Pullman team
for a game at Eugene. The matter was
seemingly settled once, after a long series
of letters, but when the contract was to
be made, the Pullman man began to show
signs of "cold feet" and wanted to make
other arrangements. Manager Wright
now offers him one of three dates Octo
ber 31,' November 15, or November 22 and
It is likely one will be accepted. On Octo
ber 18, Albany College will meet the 'vars
ity at Eugene, and on N6vember 8 the
University of Oregon- boys will play the
Agricultural College team at Corvallis.
Whitman College will have her -men at
Eugene on October 22 to try to sustain
their victory of 1001. The university will
meet Pacific University at Eugene either
on Saturday, November 22, or on the Sat
urday preceedlng. On Thanksgiving the
University of Oregon eleven will meet
Multnomah at Portland. The Portland
Medicals are desirous of taking the 'vars
ity men to Portland for a game on Mon
day. November 11, and it is probable that
their proposition will he "accepted. The
Ashland Normal also wants to come to
Eugene at some early date and play
against the college men. The Ashland
Normal has a strong team this year, and
the game would not be such a snap for
the Eugene team as has been .the case
heretofore. Charles A. Redmond, former
manager of the University of Oregon
football team, has charge of the Ashland
men this year, and unless his team was
strong, he would not care to play with
such a team as the university sustains.
However, the schedule, if made out as
given above, would be more than the
University of Oregon men could stand;
and, too, It is not likely that the athletic
committee of the faculty would pass fa
vorably on the entire list
Horace McBrlde, a member of the 1001
football team at the .University of Ore
gon," has been engaged to coach the Mc
Mlnnville College eleven for this season.
McBrlde played end on the Oregon Agri
cultural College team for several years,
and last season was a halfback on the
Eugene team. He Is an aggressive
player, and. will no doubt make a first
class coach foa the McMinnville eleven.

REIFF AND HENRY OUT.
Paris Jockey Club "Withdraws Their
Licenses Threw Races.
PARIS, Oct. 12. Le Solr announces that
the Jockey Club has withdrawn the
licenses of the American jockeys Milton
Henry and J. Reiff, excluding them from
riding on any French race course. This
action is an -outcome, says the paper, of
a very careful investigation made by the
detective department, which secured
proof that Henry and Reiff upon several
occasions have prevented favorites from
winning. The owners of the horses In
question are not parties to the transac
tions. The detective parties are power
less to Interfere with jockeys for such
offenses, and therefore put the matter In
the hands of the jockey club. Le Solr
adds:
"The decision of the jockey club will
be welcomed by every one, and It is be
lieved that It will put an end to the sus
picion involving all American jockeys In
France, among whom there are several
very honest men. Today's action by the
club will serve as a lesson to those jock
eys who still frequent night saloons sur
rounded by shady racing characters.
"The only regret which might be asso
ciated with this measure of the jockey
club Is that we are to be deprived of two
Incomparable artists who often gave spec
tacles of palpitating- struggles, in which
shrewdness and skill had repliced the
brutal methods of former times."
Milton Henry and J. Reiff have been
the two most successful jockeys on the
French race courses this season. Henry
headed 'the list of winners. Not a day
passed without his securing several wins
and places. Reiff today got two first out
Of four mounts at the Bois de nniilnrrno l
while Henry got a first and two seconds
out of five mounts. Reiff got a first and
second at Malson Lafltte Friday, while
Henry got two firsts and one second out
of six mounts at the same meeting.
PARIS, Oct 13. On the authority of a
member of the jockey club, the Echo de
Paris this morning confirms the state
ment published In Le Solr yesterday that
the jockey club had withdrawn the li
censes of Relft and Henry.

Critics of Secretary Hay's note on the
Roumanian Jews persist with strange ob
tuseness in regarding it as an altogether
unprecedented thing. It is, they say, the
flr.vt time this country has Invaded the
domestic politics of Europe the first time
it has imedd!ed with the domestic affairs
of a European state. And some try to
make out that It is an improper thing for
tho United States to appeal for the ful
fillment of a treaty to which It was not
a party. It is not to be conceded that
the note in question implies any such in
vasion or meddling. But if it did that
would be no new thing. Neither would
such an appeal for fulfillment of a treaty
of which the maker of the appeal was
not a signatory be an unheard-of thing.
For, as we have hitherto pointed out,
this note In Its spirit and purport Is nr
striking novelty, but Is merely the car
rying on of a policy long ago established.
We have before us a printed pamphlet
of scholarly pretensions which refera to
the Monroe Doctrlncas having been pro
mulgated since the purchase of Alaska

history, it .may be well again to recall
a few precedents.

stantinople was Instructed by our State
Department "to Interpose his good of
fices on behalf of the oppressed and
persecuted Jews in the Ottoman domin
ions." We do not recall that the govern
ment at Washington was then railed at
for thrusting Itself Into continental poll
tics. Again, in 1S72, Secretary Fish wrote
to the United States Minister to Russia
as follows:
"It has been suggested to this depart
ment, and the suggestion is concurred in,
that if the sympathy which we entertain
for the Inhumanly persecuted Hebrews to
the Principalities of Moldavia and Wal-
lachia were made known to the govern
ment to which you are accredited.
might quicken and encourage the effor
of that government to discharge its
as a protecting power,! pursuant to the
obligations of the treaty between certain
European states."
Mr. Fish added that while the United.
States was not a party to the treaty to
question, he deemed It fitting to make the
representations suggested, and he accord
ingly Instructed the Minister at St Pet
ersburg to communicate with the Rus
sian .Minister for Foreign Affairs to that
effect. That was not then regarded as
a perilous interference in European af
fairs. Yet the difference between Mr,
Fish's action and Mr. Hay's Is one of
degree rather than of kind. The perse-
cuieo jews or Koumanla were the ob
ject in both cases. Mr. Fish made appeal
to a single European government, in
voking the fulfillment of a treaty to
which the United States was not a party.
Secretary Hay has made such an appeal.

The subject of cloaks is an inexhausti

length cloak is certainly winnimr mora
favor than usual, and in light biscuit or 1
canana color is better liked by Parisians
than the lone cloth cloak. Tt must' Vinw

tne J-.OU1S av coat among long close-fitting
cloaks may really be called popular
so far.
