mg a tlag to float over this big Uld Homestead' store tomorrow, on one side would be the
word TRUTH, and on the other side OLDS, WORTMAN & KING'S, of course. We do not
believe in hippodroming in merchandising. We do not set up a prolonged "howl at the moon"
that we are " going to close our store at a certain date," make it an excuse to charge more than
ever for our goods, then jump at an excuse of "something doing" in town to prolong the agony,
just because the Summer quarters are not ready to move into, for continuance of the jugglery.
Neither must you watch the clock here less you be told: "Sorry, but we're just out," or "you're
too late, ma'am " Come here, shop at your leisure, comfortably, thoroughly and we promise
you every hour of the day, every day of the week, better bargains in better merchandise than
any house in Portland offers. And every one of these bargain sales is in operation from 8 this
morning till 6 Saturday night, when we close. No juggling with truth here, but red-hot, honest
bargains ALL THE WEEK I AT OLDS, WORTMAN & KING'S. You know what a
statement means with this grand name, of a quarter of a century record for TRUTHFULNESS,
affixed to it No wonder our business is doubling for people like the "Different Store's"

Expert on Immigration Say No Re
lief Can "Come Till Lnvr Are
Changed, or Jevrs of Runsia
Extinct America's Protest.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. July 12. John
H. Weber, of Buffalo, N. Y., late Commis
sioner of Immigration at the Port of
New York and chairman of the special
commission authorized by Congress In
18SS to Investigate In Europe the causes
Inciting Immigration to this country, was
a speaker today before the Jewish Chau
tauqua on the subject of "The Status of
the Jew in Russia." In his address, Mr.
Weber charged the Russian restrictive
laws with being responsible for the misery
and persecution of which people read and
hear. He stated that there would be no
peace, no substantial relief for the suf
ferers, until the total disappearance from
Russia of either the Jew or the special
laws directed against him.
Taking up the laws regarding the right
of residence, which the speaker charac
terized as especially hard and oppres
sive, he briefly sketched the history of tne
official decrees regulating the area within
which the Jews were permitted to live
during the past 40 years. Summing up the
status of the Jew in Russia Mr. Weber
said:
Condition Worse Than Slavery.
"Today he is an alien in the land of
his birth, a subject who bears an undue
share of the burdens of good government
-without the privileges of its meanest cit
izens. Fettered in his movements, han
dicappd In his vocation, restricted in his
educational opportunities, he is unable to
protect himself and powerless to success
fully Invoke the protection of the authori
ties; a slave without the self-interest of
o. master to shield him from abuse, he
stands helpless, friendless and defenseless
against brute force, the irrepressible con
flict of the age being government between
autocracy and government by the people.
The Jew is therefore the sport of the rab
ble, the spoil of the official, the football
of fanaticism, the buffer against which
strikes the wrath of bigotry, intolerance
and savagery."
After asserting the moral obligation and
the legal right of the United States to
protest to the Russian government against
its treatment of the Jews, Mr. Weber
said:
"We cannot look with unconcern upon
the arrival of the thousands of hunted
human beings, who come to us crushed in
spirit and Impoverished In substance, to
enter into competition with our respected
and self-respecting labor. Neither is it an
answer to say that we have the remedy lq
our own. hands by closing our ports
against these people. This would violate
our very instinct of humanity and" would
-war against the policy which has made
this country great and prosperous. The
abnormal immigration from Russia is due
to the laws and methods of that country
-and this gives' us a legal and moral right
to object'
Hope Lies In America.
Referring to the hope that a considerable
part of this stream from Russia may be
diverted to other lands, Mr. Weber quoted
the statement of an immigrant at Kovno:
"I am going to America, for in that di
rection lies hope. Here I have only fears
to confront me. The hope may prove de
lusive, but the fears are a certainty. My
great ambition Is to breathe, at least once,
the free air with which God has blessed
the American people."
"These," said the speaker, "are the
words of n uncultured Jew and these
are the sentiments in the heart of every
Jew in Russia."
Mr. Weber closed by calling the atten
tion of those of the Jewish faith to the
grave responsibilities falling upon them,
due to the persecution of their co-rell-glonlsts,
In receiving the thousands who
flee from their oppressors and in aiding
to establish them In work and business.
Continuing he said:
"Be patient with these unfortunate peo
ple and dd not Judgethem by the ordinary
standards. Their lives from the cradle up
have been passed under extraordinary
conditions. The grown-up generation can
never forget their mistreatment, they can
not banish fear and suspicion on com
mand, but their children can be fitted to
to enter on our citizenship and made to
glorify your race and reflect credit .on
our American institutions."

Crop of Candidates for Governor of
Hawaii Comes Forward.
HONOLULU, July 12. (By Pacific Ca
ble.) Although the term of Governor
Dole does not expire until next June,
campaigning has already commenced in
relation to his successor. Reports have
been circulated that Mr. Dole will not be
named to succeed himself, and a large
crop of candidates is expected -early next
year. Mr. Dole's friends, however, as
sert that his administration meets with
the approval of President Roosevelt, and
they confidently look for his reappoint
ment. None of the gentlemen who would be
eager to assume Mr. Dole's Gubernatorial
functions has yet been sufficiently bold to
come into the open, but It is reported
that a number are quietly interesting

Native Hawalians are particularly active,
and there is already discussion among
them of the advisability of petitioning
President Roosevelt' to appoint one of

Patrick A. Dnccy, Lumberman.
DETROIT, Mich., July 12. Patrick A.
Ducey, a wealthy retired lumberman,
died here today, aged 70 years. When the
Michigan lumber business began to de
cline, he purchased a tract of 30,000 acres
of timber In the Adlrondacks and car
ried on active operations in that part of

tired. He had also extensive lumber In
terests in Mexico and California, besides
owning property .in Colorado. He leaves
a widow and four children.
Electric Storm Hits Salvationists.

here this afternoon, doing much damage
to small buildings and windmills. The

Kansas and Nebraska, now holding a

Nine of its tents were blown down. Com

Jury, and the camp was flooded.
Panic-Stricken Man Drowned.
NEW YORK, July 12. The excursion
steamer Clifton, running around Manhat

noon with the Fulton ferry-boat New
York. During the panic which ensued
two deck hands of the Clifton Jumped
overboard, one being drowned. No pas
sengers were injured, and both boats es
caped with trifling damage. ,
He Wants to Be Shown That This Is
His Duty to His Party and
the Country.
Special to the Brooklyn Eagle.
Buzzard's Bay, Mass. The ex-President,
Grover Cleveland, Ms occupying his Sum
mer residence here. He is hardly settled,
for his removal Is too recent. That might
be the reason why interviewers are not
welcome, but it Is not. Those who know
Mr. Cleveland best know that the ex
President regards his annual visit to Buz
zard's Bay as a retirement which he Is en
titled to enjoy undisturbed. Hence news
paper men seeking to discover the state
of his mind on public or political ques
tions are not welcome. There are a num
ber of the craft In the offing, but they
have not obtained an entrance to the har
bor of Gray Gables, nor are they likely to,
if they fly the flag of the press.
Mr. Cleveland will not at present talk
for publication on political matters, so far
as they may be related to him In a per
sonal way, and this Is a well-settled vde
termlnatlon, not made without serious
consideration. By this time the country
knows that when Mr. Cleveland has
reached a determination after serious
thought he Is not easily swerved, so that
it can be set down that until matters take
a different form than they now have noth
ing will be heard from 'him on this phase
of politics in the way of an authorized
public utterance.
And while this is so, nevertheless there
are few people In the country who are not
anxious to know what Mr. Cleveland
thinks of the present situation, and what
his future course with relation to It will
be. This has been bo ever since the Eagle
formulated the demand for his candidacy.
And, whether these people are party op
ponents, anxious to be able to shape their
courses in the knowledge, antagonists
within party lines, adherents anxious to
subscribe fidelity to the flag If he would
but raise It, or that great body of citizens
who have thrown off party allegiance and
follow conscience. It Is the same. AH
want to know. Indeed, there has been a
demand that he 'should declare himself,
but all such demands are from antag
onists within his party lines.
Why Mr. Cleyelnnd Cannot Declare
Himself.
Speaking of this a day or two ago a man
who knows Mr. Cleveland as well "as one
can another said: "Friends of Mr. Cleve
land are not making such demands; they
come only from those who would embar
rass him and serve their own petty ends.
Such demands can only confirm Mr. Cleve
land in .his determination to remain silent
during these days of development. And,
Indeed, I imagine there is enough Adam in
the ex-President to refuse to gratify them
by an expression. If he were to signify
that he would accept the nomination.
they would immediately lift up a great
shout that they had smoked him out; if
he were to say that he would not take
a nomination, they would declare with a
flourish of trumpets that they had driven
him off. Whatever he might say would
be tortured to suit their ends."
But, after all, if Mr. Cleveland" is af
fected by such consideration, It Is merely
a contributory and not the prime reason
for the stand he has taken. Those who
are closest to him know that he does not
look upon present, condition as calling
upon him for a final and Irrevocable an
nouncement. They.Toiow that he Is great
ly pleased over the manifestation of the
response to the Eagle's demand, not so
much because he was the object of it as
because he saw in It unmlstakablo evi
dence of the tendency of Democratic
thought that would lead to a rehabilita
tion of the party in the esteem of the peo
pje, would bring It back to the old and
tried principles and would cast off the er
rors and sophistries that had led it Into
disaster and nearly Into destruction.
Why Mr. Cleveland Is Pleased at Re
cent Developments.
Those who are closest to him know that
the only personal consideration he has
permitted himself In this demonstration
Is that he saw in it a vindication of the
firm stand he took when the party went
headlong after false gods and Into strange
alliance. They are convinced that Mr.
Cleveland believes, from the testimony
which "has been put Into his possession,
that Democratic sentiment la running In a
deep and powerful current In the right di
rection, that Democratic conscience has
b,een aroused, and that it Is not neces
sary that his personality should be ob
truded on the situation, and that what
there Is of him as a Democratic factor
Is to be found in the tenets of the party
for which he stands and which he has
sincerely tried to enforce tenets which.
when closaly adhered to by the party, led
It to victory and power, with the possi
bility of the application of such princi
ples to the administration of government.
Therefore there Is no doubt that he looks
with leniency and equanimity on the use
of his name In giving direction to the
movement within the party which cannot
fall to arouse among its members an old
time love and enthusiasm for the creed
of pure Democracy.
The Path of Inclination May Not Be
the Path of Dnty.
It Is doubtful If there is one among
those to whom Mr. Cleveland gives bis
confidence who Is in any doubt as to what
his course "would be were he to consult
only his preferences In the matter, and
that would be to continue the life he Is
leading. They believe that to him tho
path of Inclination Is clearly marked out,
that as to that he Is In no doubt, but
what Is or what may be the path of
duty Is another thing, and that the stage
Is not yet reached when he Is or should
be called upon to take a decisive stand.
A year will elapse before the convention
will assemble to make a nomination.
There are other considerations which,
given thought to, must have their Influ
ence. Were Mr.' Cleveland to follow his
Inclination and at this time declare that
he would not accept a nomination, and
yet In the final development of the situa
tion should be called upon to forego his
preference and obey the call of duty, he
then might find himself the subject of
criticism in that he was not sincere in
his utterances, and. Indeed, he might be
charged with being treacherous to the am
bitions of others which had been In op
eration, in the belief that he was not a
candidate, and which, not put to the final
test. It might be claimed, would have
been successful had not his towering iand
overshadowing personality been inter
posed. Again, If he were to signify now
that he would accept, there are many who
would feel that they must commit them
selves to his candidacy who should main
tain a position of free agency to tlic end.
These latter considerations are, of course,
wholly speculative, as Is this that If such
a contingency should arise, which. Is not
at all likely, wherein Mr. Cleveland was
forced to make" reply to the question so
widely and frequently asked, "Will Cleve
land tako the nomination?" his answer
would be that he didn't know, but that he
certainly didn't want It.
HIa closest confidants are convinced that
Mr. Cleveland, "looking out from the
broadest standpoint, does not believe he
should be urged into decisive action at
present, at least. But such sentiments
have not been expressed to any interview
er, and will not be.
Mr. Cleveland's Attitude.
A third term has no Illusions for Mr.
Cleveland. The occupancy of four more
years of the White House can only mean
to him hard labor, great strain and the
heavy weight and responsibilities which
are almost crushing, certainly to any one
but a very strong man. Said a person who
has himself occupied high place and stood
close to the administration of National
affairs: "The fun is all over when the
election returns are In, even if success
' follows them." That Mr. Cleveland, who
In the nature of things has not so many
years to live as he had when he assumed
the Presidential responsibilities for the

four of the years that are left him to tho
drudgery of the Presidential office, fore
going the ease, comfort and pleasures of
a private life, about which there Is dis
tinction without the disagreeable features
that so often accompany It, Is but natu
ral. Perhaps the average American, ac
customed to regard the office of President
as the most desirable thing on earth, and
observant of the struggles men have made
and are making to obtain It, may be, In
credulous over the assertion that a man to
whom It Is at least possible does not de
sire It. The late Lucius Robinson once
said of the office of the Governor of the
State of New York that all there was In
It for the occupant was having held It.
Mr. Cleveland has twice held the office,
and the additional honor that can come to
him from another term will not Increase
his present state.
Cleveland "Will Accept If XeccHHary.
The keyword to a determination of what
the course of Grover Cleveland will be Is
duty. If In the development of events It
can be made to appear to him that It Is a
duty which he owes to the party and the
country, those who know him well antici
pate he will accept another nomination
and obey the call. He recognizes the ob
ligations of duty as few men do. It means
much to him. and it will be, as It has been
in the nasL swaying with him. All those.

What Democracy Should Do.
In various utterances, by tongue and
pen, Grover Cleveland has left the party
and. Indeed, the country In no doubt as
to what should be the future policy of
the Democratic party, and what principles
It should espouse. Disinclined to talk to
Interviewers, at least on his own relation
to the party, he has been free to speak of
party principles. He regards tariff re
form as the most Important Issue, and
believes that the best assurance of suc
cess In the coming campaign Is an Insist
ence upon Its old-time doctrine of a fair
and beneficent tariff adjustment. He be
lieves thousands who have not declared j
lrrevocaDiy tneir pariy aintiauons a wait
an opportunity to espouse a cause in
which tariff reform is made the chief
Issue. Hardly second to this is adminis
trative reform, and in the recent dis
closures at Washington this question has
gained an Importance It had not a few
months ago in the public mind. Sound
money should be an affirmative declara
tion and the present financial system per

whose name has been connected recently
with the Investigation Into the death of

which Is undated, starts out by saying:
"We have not run away. We live quietly
out of brokenheartedness. Our attorneys
will not permit 'us to talk. They want the
Bests to drive their last nail. Then. If they
notify our attorneys, whom they know,
In a few hours or minutes they can have

performed by the County Physician and
the Coroner and was ordered by William
