HAS REAMES SHOW?
GovernorChamberjainThinks
Democrat May Win.
CAN OVERCOME, PLURALITY
Because of Hermann', roor Standing
With, tlie Administration Believes
Democratic PlunU "Will Receive
Popular Support,
RAU5M. Or.. Anrll It Special.) ""I be
lieve Mr. Keame has a good. -chance of
K-innlnjr." said George E. Chamberlain.
the Democratic Governor ot Oregon, when
he was asked today what he thought of
the Congressional contest in the First
District. I notice mat air. .nermann s
friends are counting upon a Republican
plurality of some 7000 votes, and they eay
that & uemocranc canoiuair cannub over
come this enormous sluralltv. It is
true that Mr. Tongue was elected by "000
plurality, but I do not believe that the
normal Republican plurality is more than
2000. This advantage the Democrats can
overcome.
"In the first place, there Is wide dissat
isfaction among Republicans over the
nomination of Mr. Hermann. I would
not undertake to discuss the merits of
the controversy between the ex-Land
Commissioner and hla superiors at "Wash
ington, but I can see that the people reel
that to send Mr. Hermann to Congress
'would be a rebuke to the Administration.
"Whether Mr. Hermann was right or
wrong. It is apparent from his enforced
resignation from the Land Office that he
la persona non grata with the Adminis
tration. Jt will toe argued in his favor
that to send a Democrat to congress
"would be a rebuke to the Administration,
tut I believe the voters of the First Dis
trict will be of the opinion that to rend
ZVlr. Hermann would be a direct slap at
president Roosevelt and his Secretary of
the Interior, and to leave Mr. Hermann
t home would be an indorsement of the
Administration. I think the people gen
erally, without regard to the merits of
.Hermann's troubles at "Washington, take
this view of the situation.
"Then, again, a very Urge number of
"Republicans are firm believers In tariff
revision. President Roosevelt has been
an advocate of tariff revision until re
cently, when he seems to have been per
suaded to accede to the wishes of some ot
the parly leaders. The Republican party
Is now opposed to revision, while tho
Democrat favor It. The platform adopt
ed by the Congressional convention at
Albany last Saturday contained this
plank:
"Tnera Is an overwhelming demand from a
nii majority of the people for a. revision of
th. tariff along rational Uses. repudiate
the abaurd proposition of continuing high pro
tection on the products of cicantlc trusts, now
crown plethoric with wealth under govern
mental favors.
"This is a doctrine which has the sup
port of large numbers of good Republi
cans. TVe do. not ask for absolute free
trade, but for a revision of the tariff,
which would mean free trade as to cer
tain trust-made articles which are now
needlessly protected. The only National
Issue In this Congressional contest is the
revision of the tariff. The people are In
favor of revision and the only way they
can make their wishes known is by vot
ing the 'Democratic ticket. In voting that
ticket they will be indorsing the views
long entertained by President Roosevelt
end always entertained by the Demo
cratic party, and will be rebuking those
Republicans who have permitted the
trusts to influence National legislation.
"From any" point of view, I believe Mr.
Realties has a strong advantage In this
campaign and If the fight Is well con
ducted he should win. If a choice is to
be made between two men, I believe the
people of the First District will secure
a Representative who can get the most
recognition from the Administration if
they select 'Mr. Reames. If the choice is
to be made between two platforms, I be
lieve the people will most clearly express
their opinion upon the live political ques
tions if they vote the Democratic ticket.
I do not expect that any considerable
number of Republicans are to be con
verted Into Democrats, but I believe that
very considerable number will vote for
Democratic candidate who represents
their opinions and desires rather than for
sv Republican candidate who does not."

And Gambllnjr Must Cease Entirely

CHEHALIS-. Wash- Anrll li TSr-
cisl Sunday saloons and gambling in
Lewis County must cease at once. Today
County Attorney Langhorne and Sheriff
Jlcary Urquhart issued a letter signed
oy each of them, and directed to every
c'tr saloon-keeper in Lewis County, as
Ic::3ws:
"The Question concerning the ooenlns
such a stage that we deem It best for
all concerned that In the hereafter all
saloons must remain permanently closed
cn Sunday, closing to take place prompt
ay at 1 o'clock Saturday night. We
therefore caution you against the open
ing of your saloon on Sunday and trust
that this caution will be heeded so that
It will not be necessary to make any
further arrests on account of violation
of the Sunday law relative to the open
lag of saloons on that day. Further, we
notify you ihat gambling In any form or
shape must cease at once. Remove all
gambling tables, tools and implements of
every kind upon receipt of this notice."
Attorney Xxngnorno says that Sheriff
Urquhart and himself found that about a
good third of their time had been taken
up by arresting saloon-keepers on com
plaints for violating the laws referred to.
The cases have cost the county hundreds
of dollars for Jury fees, etc, and the
cheapest and best method for the Inter
est" of the taxpayers is to stop the busi
ness' in every town in the county.
MORE POWER FROM SAXTXAM.
Will Give Albany" Increased Light
and Power Service.
ALBANY, Or.. April lfi. 6pedal.
The Albany Canal & Water Company,
which recently purchased the electric
lighting plant in Albany, has completed
arrangements for making extensive im
provements In the plant. The work will
be under the supervision of S. R. Inch,
an expert electrical engineer from Mon
tana, -who is already on the ground. The
power-house will be moved and the new
structure win .be. much larger and more
stable. The new location will give an
additional fall of 13 feet to the water
from the Santlam Canal, thus Increasing
the power about 2 per cent.
A new 200-borsepower Corliss engine
has been purchased, and a 130-horsepower
generator of the alternating current poly
phase type will be installed. The street
lighting system will be entirely changed.
The present system will be supplanted by
what is known as the alternating con
stant current series system, using inclosed
arc lamps.
v The most important phase of the pro
posed change is the It-hour service. Here
tofore Albany has had no electric power
during the day time. Those Industries
not situated on ' the water front have
been forced to use steam for power, and
the puff of gasoline engines can be heard
on any of the principal business streets.
The electric lighting service will be
largely improved and power will be avail
able for any factories that may be established.

SALEM. Or.. April 16. (Special.) The
center of travel In Salem changed today
when the poetomce was removed to the

were made today from the new office.
Yesterday all streets led to the old post
office building on Commercial street; to
day they lead to the new building in
the center of tho block bounded by State.
Church. Court and Cottage streets. While
the new location is a little removed from
the ordinary business center, it is more
convenient for the general public Post
master Hlrsch and his assistants moved
their equipment to the new building after
office hours last night, and were ready
to servo the public as usual this morn
ing. Aside from the trouble of, changing
box keys, the removal occasioned no in
convenience whatever. The people of
Salem are rejoicing today over the com
pletion of the structure.
Only two rooms In the second floor of
the building are occupied. One of these
will be used by clerks and carriers as a
reading-room while off duty, and the
other will be used by the Civil Service
examiner.
There are several large office rooms on
that floor that may be used by any
Federal officers who may be assigned to
offices here.

SISKIYOU MINE BOUGHT

IS
Development Mean a' Much for Indus
' try' In Southern Oregon Mar Be
come Great Copper Center.
JACKSONVILLE, Or, April ltWSpe
claL) It Is reported here on good author
ity that the Elliott .Creek copper property,
in the Sisklyous. jnear the state lint,
southwes of Ashland, and owned by
Crescent City. CaL, people, has been sold
to Patsy Clark, a' Spokane -mining oper
ator, for $34,000, of which JEW) la paid
down, the balance to be paid. In install
ments. The property Is said to be one
of the finest copper properties on the
Coast, and has bad some development
work done on It. ,
The new owner will begin at once to
develop the mine with a crew ot SO men
working In three eight-hour shifts. A
dally stage line will be put Into opera
tion by Mr. Clark: between Jacksonville
and his newly acquired property as soon
as the stock and coaches can be pro
vided. While these mines are located in Cali
fornia, they are practically In Southern
.Oregon. Joe Creek, on which the .claims
lie. empties into Elliott Creek, and this
In turn flows into Applegate River, all
of which head on the north slope ot the
Applegate and flow down and across Jo
sephine County. The only means of reach
ing the mines Is from this side, a good
wagon road leading to them along the
Applegate from Grant's Pass. The mines
cover some 33) acres or more. The region,
though isolated, is a rich and promising
one, and for several months psst has been
the scene of great mining activity. Cop
per Is the principal metal, and' the bodies
of this that hsve been uncovered in the
several claims being opened are mid to
surpass In richness and extent the famous
veins of the Iron Mountain and other
Siiasta mines farther north and Just over
the divide ot the Sisklyous. In fact. It
has been demonstrated beyond a doubt
that the Joe and Elliott-Creek deposits
and those of Waldo, across the line, are
a part of the Shasta copper belt.
There are JS claims In the properties
purchased by Patsy Clark. On some of
these considerable development work has
been done. The ledges range from six to
20 feet in width and carry values In both
copper and gold. The average copper
values are about 9 per cent, with from t2
to IS a ton gold. It is the intention of
Mr. Clark to operate his newly acquired
properties on an extensive scale. Each
and all of the claims are to be thoroughly
and systematically opened up. Follow
ing this, large smelters will be put In and
the mines worked as extensively as those
father south. To do this will require a
railroad Into the district, as the present
means of hauling in coke and hauling out
matte by wagon over bad mountain roads
is far too Inadequate for anything but a
very small property. A railroad will nec
essarily have to "be built Into the district.
Already speculation Is being made as to
the probable route of this line. That It
will connect with the Southern Pacific
goes without saying, unless it should
make connections with the proposed Ore
gon & Pacific, which gives promise of
opening up a new route from here to'
San Francisco.
With the opening up of these Immense
copper properties, those of the Waldo
Smelting & Mining Company, those ot
the Preston Peak Company, and those qf
the Mountalnvlew Copper Company, all
of which mines are situated In virtually
the same or adjoining districts. Southern
Oregon will become the greatest copper
center In the world. They are all enor
mous propositions, and will necessarily
move slowly; nevertheless. all are pre
paring for work, all are shaping them
selves for the beginning of business, all
are arranging for railroad connections
with the main market centers, all are to
be developed and equipped with smelters
snd worked on a mammoth scale, all
present vast bodies of high-grade copper
ore. and all are managed by men of means
and enterprise.
CONNOR WAS INSUBORDINATE.
So Commander Bedell Has Removed
Him From Council.
WALLA WALLA. Wash.. April 16.
(Special.) The most critical stage of the.
controversy over the change ot the dates
of the annual encampment of the Depart
ment ot Washington and Alaska, G. A.
H, was tonight reached, when Command
er B. C Bedell, ot this city, announced
that he had notified Charles R. Connor,
a Spokane member of the elective coun
cil of administration, of his removal.
"Unsolicited legal advice and other good
causes and reasons" are' assigned by the
commander for Connor's removal. His
successor will be named in department
orders to be Issued soon.
The commander today received the an
nouncement from Abraham Garl. of
Burlington, a member ot the elective
council of five, that he had changed his
vote In favor of no change in date. This
leaves the elective council tied, with the
deciding vote In the person of Bedell's
appointee, who will be in sympathy with
him and opposed to any change. It is
almost a certainty . said Commander
Bedell tonight, that the encampment will
not be held during President Roosevelt's
visit to Spokane.
