ROASTED TO A TURN
Dr. Hare's Opinion of His
Majesty McBride,
HIS VETOES FOR VENGEANCE
Speaker of-. Washington Heaae Ap
proves Robertson's Stand and
Makes Merciless Analysis of
Governor's Political Coarse.
NORTH" YAKIMA, Wash., June 29.
(Special.) A letter received this -week by
W. W. Robertson, ot the Yakima Re
public, from Dr. W. H. Hare, speaker of
the House of Representatives, who was
elected from , this county, a review is
made of the hostility of Governor Mc
Bride toward .Yakima County.. Dr. Hare
congratulates Mr. Robertson upon the
stand he took In withdrawing -from the
Louisiana Purchase Commission when
the announcement was made of Charles
Reed'o appointment to succeed Thomas
P. Westendorf as superintendent of the
Chehalls Reform School. Continuing', Dr.
Hare, gives some Interesting political his
tory. He says' in part;
"The representatives from our county
last session of- .the 'legislature. Ir. Dunn
and myself, wre made to feel the op
pressive enmity of a Governor who re
gards with personal disdain or hatred
everyone who does jiofc choose to follow
him or accept his dictatorial policies.
Because we preferred to vote for a United
States Senator of our own choice, rather
than for the choice of the Governor, we
were olasslfled by ,blm as. "suspects.
"When all was over, and the Legislature
had adjourned, he vetoed the then vital
measures we had been Interested in pass
ing on behalf of the county: The sugar
bounty, the Naches road bill and the
County Treasury reimbursement account,
which even the State Auditor had passed
upon as correct and Just. This was
executive vengeance, not economy, as he
Wandly .asserted.
"Men familiar with the life of the two
last Legislatures are In no sense deceived
as to the Governor's character, alms and
insincerity. The Governor's plea of so
licitude for the taxpayers, in carrying out
his veto 'retaliations, is a mockery and
an insult to public intelligence,
"How does it come that he allowed one
$3000 appropriation for a trout hatchery
on Lake Chelan to stand while he erased
a. similar provision . for Lake Crescent on
the west side? The House and Senate
had agreed that one proposition was as
meritorious as the other. But it is in these
little things we shall find the pettiness
of his excellency. M. E. Field, who was
one of the Governor's alds-de-camp In
the Legislature and the Governor's pri
vate secretary, are property-owners on
Lake Chelan. Of course, they had to be
accommodated on their fishing preserves,
while the great trout lake of Clallam
County, really more In need of a hatchery
than Chelan, had to do without, because
Mr. Palmer, the ' Representative from
Clallam, which Is clamoring for a rail
road connection with the outer world,
had ben supported by his constituents
in refusing to follow the Governor in his
railroad commission campaign. Clallam
County had to be punished for disobedi
ence to his majesty's wishes.
"It might be asked further what qual
ity or type of mind in a chief magistrate
Is it that would recommend the appro
priation of JI200 for the installation of the
pictures of our Governors (Including him
self), and then veto, under the pretext
of economy, an appropriation of J200 to
pay for the frames Inclosing group pic
tures of the several Legislatures which
had bfen presented as a gift to the state.
A parallel to this incredible littleness in
the Governor of a modern state would be
impossible to find.
"And speaking of political Insincerity,
it is well to consider McBrlde's railroad
commission scheme In the light of his. own
conduct. His original plan, while Lieutenant-Governor
and President of the Sen
ate, was to deprive George Rogers ol
the appointive prerogative, and appropri
ate it himself as chairman of an ap
pointive commission. The best tax re
lief bill ever passed In the state, known
as the tax commission bill, was vetoed
by Governor McBrlde after the last ses
sion, for the actual reason that it did
tt him what he vainly tried to do to Gov
ernor Rogers. This bill gave to the board
of equalization such appointive power as
was provided for, and that power could
not have been lodged in a more befitting
place.
"Although not current political history,
it is well known among those who fol
low the inner courses of state politics,
that McBrlde, when baffled In 1901 by
the legislative majority, thought to com
promise with Governor Rogers In such
manner as to obtain dominance in the
proposed railroad commission. The bi
partisan bill provided for two Republican
and one Democratic appointees. If Mc
Brlde could name or be the indorser-ln-chlcf
of the two Republicans, he. in the
last ditch of the fight, was willing to
accept the principle of the Tolman bill,
which reposed the appointive power in
Governor Rogers. He called on the Gov
ernor with the Idea in view of making
this agreement, but Rogers saw through
his motives at once, and jocularly In
formed him that he would appoint two
Republicans who were In sympathy with
railroad development. This ended the
compromise. Governor Rogers simply
would not lend himself to the upbuilding
of a McBrlde railroad commission ma
chine, and he knew that the bill giving
him the appointive power could not pass
unless he agreed to do so.
"As another example of insincerity we
may take the fate of the Congressional
apportionment bill of 3901. Governor Mc
Brlde talks a great deal of the constitu
tional requirement relating to a railway
commission. In this he Is mistaken as
to interpretation, inasmuch as the man
datory provision on the subject is that
the Legislature "shall regulate" rates,
while in the secondary claim it is con
ferred aa a power to provide for a rail
way commission.
"But how about the Congressional re
apportionment? This is specifically man
datorya Legislative duty to be per
formed at each session succeeding the
Federal census.
"The bill that passed the House In 1901
In conformity to the constitution, wag
thoroughly considered in committee and
on the floor. But In McBrlde's eyes it
had one glaring and Irremediable fault
The partition of the Congressional dis
tricts assured King County a Congress
man, and for at least ten years made it
Impossible for McBrido's northwest com
bination to control a Congressional nomi
nation in that district. Governor Rogers
then gave promise of living many years
and the Lieutenant-Governor, with an
eye on the future of the political field,
held himself in no mean light as a pos
sible candidate for the lower house of
Congress. For this reason he chose to
hold the constitution in contempt, and
as chairman of the sifting committee In
the Senate, he killed the bill by keeping
It off the calendar In spite of every pro
test and pleading."
Dr. Hare closes with an indorsement of
Westendorf.
LARGE "XOME HOTEL BURNED,
Steamer Senator Arrives Prom the
Xorth With Pansentccrs ana Dant.
SEATTLE, June 29. The steamer Sen
ator arrived in port this morning from
Nome, the third vessel out from Bchring

from tho Nome, country and several pas

of fully $23,000. The day previous to the
hotel, blaze, fire was dlsco-ercd in the

XT WAS CAMPAIGN SUXDAV.
License Qncatlon Thoroughly Dis
eased at Forest Grove.
FOREST GROVE, Or., June 29.-(Spe-ciaL)
It was campaign Sunday yester
day at the Concrec-atlonal Church, both
morning and evening services being given ,
over io me discussion or ine licensing ot
a saloon, the issue which Is to be put
before the people at the special city
election next Wednesday. Superintendent
C. F. Clapp. president of the Good Citi
zens" League. In the morning read sta
tistics of prohibition elsewhere, especial
ly dwelling on Kansas and the college
city of Cambridge. Mass.
In the evening the chilly air drove in
doors the massmeetlng and about 110
people assembled in Marsh Hall Audi
torium, about one-third being voters.
Business men had been announced as
speakers and after prayer by President
Ferrln, Dr. Bishop, recently from Asto
ria, spoke. The sale of liquor we do
have, he -said, but why snould we have
the license of liquor? Mr. James, who
formerly lived in Nebraska, stated that
he was a radical and considered the '
man who sold liquor the worst kind of
a murderer. Mr. Harris excited curiosity
as a Kentucklan, who didn't, drink, but
admitted he had lived, too, in Nebraska.
He had found Forest Grove had some- '
thing now very like a saloon. Principal I
Bates discussed the matter from an
ethical standpoin and Superintendent
Clapp read a long list of Kansas judges
who asserted prohibition had been en
forced In their districts and the country
prospered. Mr. Peterson, who had been
a prohibition Mayor In Kansas, had come
to Forest Grove because It was announced
as a temperance town and had been sur
prised at the treating habit In business
circles here. Superintendent Clapp fin
ished and announced that another meet
ing would probably be held Tuesday even
ing. A surprise in the campaign was the
statement Sunday et'onlng by the presi
dent of the Good Citizens' League, Su
perintendent Clapp, that the ordinance
v.-hlch had been published In the last
three Issues of the official city paper
to be- voted on next Wednesday was not
the same ordinance which the Council had
ordered to be submitted to the voters.
To this the Councllmen take exception,
asserting that they know best what they
adopted, and declaring that the printed
ordinance is the identical one passed by
them. '

CORVALL.IS. Or.. June 29. (Special.)
A school election for issue of bonds that
was to have occurred here today, was
postponed by the School "Board to July

large enough to house all the school
children. Some of the rooms have been
so partitioned as to make two rooms out
of one. In addition, last year, an old
church building was used for the primary
grade. Even with these added facilities,
some ot the teachers had as many aa GO
pupils. On account of those conditions,
the board has proposed an Issue of JSOOO

PRIMARIES AT BOISE.
J. A. Pinney or John M. Haines to Be
Republican Candidate for Mayor.
BOISE, Idaho, June 29. (Special.) The
Republican primaries were held this after
noon. There were some very spirited con
tests on between tne Civic League and
the reformers desiring to secure the noml
nation of men who will certainly enforec
the law against gambling and promote
other reforms and various elements, in
eluding all that class -who desire a- wide
open town. That contest appeared In only
two of the four wards. In one the Civic
League won, and in the other it waa
defeated.
Aa a result of the primaries it seems
that the contest for Mayor is between J.
A, Pinney and John M. Haines. The lat
ter is not an avowed candidate, while Mr.
Pinney is. The element that desires to
have gambling kept In subjection and yet
does not desire any extreme measures,
such as they think the Civic League might
ask for, are against Pinney and are dis
posed to support Haines. But it is yet
I impossible to tell what the result will be.

TAKEN. FROM ROGUE RIVER,
Medfonl Coroner Decides That the
Drovratnif-Was Shcr as te Ee
qslre No laqaest.
MEDFORD. Or., June 29. Special.) The
body of John C. VanByke, who was
drowned In. Rogue River yesterday, was
recovered this afternoon. Over 104 citi
zens and friends in Medford worked from
dark last night until 2 o'clock this- morn
ing with lanterns, grabhooks and boats.
About 11 o'clock last night his hat was
found, about 60 yards from where he was
last seen. Just at daylight this morning
J. W. Mahoney, M. F. McCown and J. D.
Fay found his fishing rod about SO yard3
beyond where the hat was found. At day
light a systematic search of the river
from bank to bank was made. A sack
was filled with rocks until It weighed
fully 1C0 pounds,, and was lowered where
the body was last seen. This sack was
dragged and finally taken out with grab
hooks, by this manner disturbing the
body, causing it to move. This, however,
is only a supposition. They had gone over
the place where the body was taken out
many times, and the river was searched
three or four miles, the same ground be
ing gone over until it seemed almost Im
possible that a body could be there. A
reward was" offered by C. C. Ragsdale of
150 to any one who would recover the body

caught the body with a grabhook and
brought it to the surface. They were try
ing to get it on the raft, when it slipped
away from them and back Into the water.
It was finally brought up again by Guy
and Eugene Chllders and C. O. Ramsey,
who were In a boat. The body was
brought to Medford "and Is now at the
family residence.
Coroner Plckel waived the usual inquest
as the conditions did not justify holding
one. Mr. VanDyke was married last Oc-
ober to Miss Minnie Cox, of this city.
He was 27 years old. and besides being a
prominent business man was a member

the late Francis Nicole, who was struck
and killed by a locomotive on the Asto
ria & Columbia River Railroad Satur
day, returned a verdict In accordance

onerated the engineer and fireman from
all blame. In closing, the verdict said:
"In this connection we desire to sug
gest to the proper authorities the advis
ability of having automatic gates or

street crossings. It might .also lessen the
danger of accidents if the engines on all
trains were required to run with the
engines instead of the tenders ahead.

Well, we guess yes. When
ve advertised a car of 18
standard high-grade pi
anos the other day more
as an advertisement than
a matter of profit, who
would have thought that
every one would be taken
the first day and that be
fore 5 o'clock P. M., and
not a single one went out
of the city?
We are not in the habit of publishing
the names of our customers, but think
there would be no Impropriety in this case,
so look over the list of lucky purchasers
and perhaps you will find a number of
your friends anions them: Mrs. E. Ba
ker, A. Anderson, J. E. McMahon. Mrs.
E. M. Treber. Charles Russell. C. J.
Stavcr, Mrs. E. West. J. W. Keith, Ellen
Smith. T. H. Davis. Mrs. E. Montelth.
John Jones. Harry Keeley, Mrs. M. A.
Richards, J. A. Norton, li. L. Rogers.
Thomas Gray and Mrs. L,. Story.

got In a little too lata we have received
another shipment and have concluded to
offer twenty more at Xhe same price and
terms, beginning this morning, after which,
they will be sold at one resular price.
As stated before, we cannot advertise tha
make, as they are a standard high-grade
planoof our regular stock and warranted
for ten years, and are made to sell at
$400. but If you act wisely and Quickly
you will get one for just J2S6 by paying
$15 down and J10 per month. They come
In oak, walnut and mahogany cases and
are the very latest up-to-date styles. We
made our contracts with our manufactur
ers for our yearly supply early In the
season, and they are shipping them aa
fast as they can In advance, so they are
coming by the carload and shipload via
the Horn. As a result we have to dispose
of lots of pianos between now and Octo
ber l, when we will move Into our new
home at the corner of Sixth and Morrison
streets, where we will have the largest
and finest modern music house in the Pa
cific Northwest.

It at first, and it gradually grew worse.
When I did anything which required ex

to have baclcache In an acute form. I
