TO SUPREME COURT
Damage Claims for Bridge
Accident Will Go.
TEST CASE OH POINTS OF LAW
County Court Rejects All Claims, De
nylns Liabilities, and Attorneys
"Will Pick Oat One Case for Ap
pealMore Claims Filed.
As was anticipated. Judge Webster Is-
sued an order yesterday In the county
Court, denying all claims for damages re-
suiting from the Morrison-etroet bridge
accident. An attorney representing a
number of claimants ivqs present, pre
pared to make an argument, but, after a
brief discussion with Judge "Webster, it
was agreed that the best course to pur
sue was to go before the Supreme Couj-t
On a question Of law as soon as possible,
and ascertain if the county Is liable.
Judge Webster said it was admitted that
people fell from the bridge and were in
jured, but he denied any negligence or
liability on the part of the county.
A number of attorneys represent claim
ants, and will probably hold a meeting
and decide what course is best to pursue.
If they decide to make a test case and
carry it to the Supreme Court, they will
determine which case to select, and what
propositions of law to contend far.
Seven additional claims have been filed
with County Auditor Brandes. Each for
$2000 damages.
John Duncan wants damages for his
son, Charles H. Duncan, whose left ankle
was dislocated, bones of the left foot
broken and crushed and other minor in
juries received.
Ben Rapp alleges that four of his ribs
were broken, his leg bruised and Injured.
He is represented by his father, Charles
Rapp.
W. J. Golyean says he was thrawn from
the bridge, sustaining an injury to his
knee, besides his left side; also a fracture
of the jawbone and cuts on the face.
Mrs. i". C. Humphrey claims she sus
tolned serious injuries to her bade and
eerious bruises of her elbows.
Daisy Eymcn alleges that sho 'was in
ternally injured, besides sustained bad
bruises and lacerations of her body, and
suffered a eerious nervous shod.
J. T. Cmnnock says his rlgh- hip and
the sciatic nerve were injured, two ribs
broken, nose fractured and left arm and
shoulder hurt.

LABORER'S EYE PUT OUT.
IJe Sacs Contractors for Dam.
axes, Aliening Criminal Ketclect.
Suit was filed in the United States Cir
cuit Court yesterday by W. H. Ryals
against tho contracting firm of Ferguson
& Houston for $10,000 as personal dam
ages and costs. Ryals is at present a
resident of Missouri, but was formerly
in the employ of Ferguson & Houston as
u laborer. While engaged in driving a
scraper at Fort Columbia, Wash., a year
ago, ho alleges that the dump lever struck
him in the face, destroying tho sight of
his right eyo and otherwise disfiguring
his face, all of which disqualifies him for
following his trade, that of mechanical
engineer.
Tho petition' recites that tho injuries
wero sustained In the line of bis employ
ment, and were due to the criminal neg-
ltgenco of the defendants in requiring
him to work with a worn-out scraper.
which was unfit for service. The plaintiff
is represented by Oglesby Toung and V.
, 3C Strode, of this city, and tho cause will
probably go to trial at tho October term.

W. It. Archaxnbeau has sued Will Wurz
Bffoller in the State Circuit Court for 5S53
damages, on account of failure to deliver
certain horses and colts, and the com
plaint states that in August, 1902, Arch

t"3S a head, all of a band of horses on a

Evidence Afralnst "Woo Shook.
Tho evidence adduced in tho Municipal
Court in the case of Yeoung Yeo, alias
Woo Sliook, who is wanted In San Fran
cisco for robbery and attempt to commit
murder, was submitted in writing to
Judge Cleland yesterday. The man in

Cleland on a petition for a writ of habeas
corpus, and a decision was reserved.
Montavilla Liquor Case Continued
Tho Grimes Montavilla liquor license
case was called up in the County Court
yesterday, and was continued for hearing
for two weeks. It may bo necessary to
prove whether or not some of the persons
who signed either the petition or the re
monstrance are electors of the precinct,
and it will take the attorneys some time
to examine- all of the names on both doc
uments, and to ascertain if they desire to
question any f them or not.

"THE "WILL OF THE PEOPLE
Something About It In Conneetloa
With the Referendum Amendment.
LATOURELLE. Or.. Aug. 23. To the
Editor.) I have read with great Interest
the different opinions about the recent tre
clslon of onr honorable Circuit Judges of
Multnomah County. In the matter of the
initiative and referendum. I wish to
give my opinion from the standpoint of
one of the plain people. I am a rarmer
and do not pretend to have any knowledge
of the law, but I have a little common
sense, and I wish to tell the Judges and
others what many of us think of this
thing.
The majority will of the people in a
state Is at any and all times the supreme
power there, which rules and governs
everything, which has no power above it
and takes orders from no one. This su
preme power acts always as It pleases
ano Its acts are always In order and al
ways right and lawful because it is the
supreme law. If it makes a mistake no
one but itself can correct it, because it
is the law. It makes law and repeals law.
It creates and maintains all courts and
employs all Judges therein to uphold, to
guard and to carry out its will. There
fore nothing can be more absurd and
rebellious against this will and against
common sense, in the opinion of an aver
age voter, than for the Judges who are
employed as guardians of this will to re
volt, rebel, or decide against it. And this
decision of the Judges of Multnomah
County Is a Judicial rebellion against the
people, as it is clear enough from read
ing the constitution.
The majority will of the people of Ore
gon Is, according to our constitution and
the Constitution of the United States, the
supreme power In this state which rules
and creates all law and order therein.
This will Is therefore always In order, no
matter how it does something or what it
does, as long as Its actions are not against
the Constitution of the United States.
Tho courts of the state do not make the
laws for the people, but the people make
the laws for the courts. We have never
given the courts any power or right to
say anything about the making of laws,
but only to say what a law means when
it Is made by the Legislature, and to say
if Its actions are against our constitution.
All this is very plain, there cannot be
the least doubt about it, and it takes but
little sound sense to understand It easily.
All Judges of our state are employes,
hired workmen. They are hired by the
majority will of the people to maintain
and uphold their will in the laws they
have made. Just as soon, therefore, as
one of these Judges decides against that
will, just that soon he Is In rebellion
against It anfl against his employer. Every
rebel against the majority will of tho
people ought to be treated and punished
as such. Every such rebel is a criminal.
Therefore, these Multnomah Judges by
right should themselves be before the Su
preme Court of our state as defendants
in a criminal case instead of the initiative
and referendum. We should not allow
by any means that any court should trifle
with the will of tho people. Therefore, I
claim that even our Supreme Court has
not the least legal right to declare or to
decide against any action or expression
of this will by a majority of the people,
either in the name of Justice or sound
reason.
The will of tho present generation Is
bound no more by the will of their fore
fathers than a present Legislature Is
bound by the dictation of a previous one.
It would bo horrible If it was otherwise.
It is. therefore, all nonsense when a
Judge decides that the will of the present
generation must be expressed exactly as
the will of a dead generation dictates'
and prescribes. We allow old laws to be
In existence Just as long as we think they
are good for our welfare, and no loncer.
It don't matter who made them. We create
new laws for new purposes, and no pre
vious generation or legislation, no presont
court or Judge has a right to dictate and
say what the present majority will of the
people shall do or how it shall be done,
aiier it is aone.
The courts may reverse the action of
our representatives in the Legislature if
it makes laws which violate directly ap
proved will of the people as put down in
our constitution, but they have no right
whatever to reverse the directly expressed
majority win or the people themselves
If the courts had declared the action of
the Legislature wrong In regard to the
initiative and referendum before the neo
pie at tho ballot box themselves acted on
It. possibly it might havo, been right, but
alter tne people or Oregon approved the
action or tne Legislature by a great ma
jority. It is then good law, and the courts
nave notning more to say.
Only tho people themselves can now re
verse their action. If they find out It is
not good. This is the common-sense
opinion of one old "hayseed" and he
knows a good many more who think the
same thing. FERDINAND FLOSS.

Burial of Mcnotti Garibaldi Is a
Most Impressive Spectncle.
ROME Aug. 26. The burial of Menottl
Garibaldi took place today, and was a
most impressive spectacle. During the
night, the body was carried on the gun

escorted by cavalry, across the Campagna
itomania. Amia tne darkness would ap
pear, from time to time, groups of peas
ants, carrying torches, lanterns and char
acteristic lamps with three wicks, who
knelt along the road and called on God to
bless tha remains of their benefactor. A
group of cowboys of the Campagna
Romania mounted on prairie ponies and
carrying long Iron-tipped lances for guid
ing the cattle, Joined the escort around
the coflln. As the dawn burst over the
Campagna, a group of horsemen came
dashing up from the opposite direction.
Their leader, who at first was not recog
nlsed, approached the gun carriage and
laid an oak branch upon the coffin, at the
same time scarcely restraining his emo
tlon. It was Gabriele d'AnnunzIo.
Arriving at Carano Menottl's estate, the
coffin was lowered into the grave by the
dead man's relatives and friends including
d Annunzio. wno also delivered a brief and
touching address. The earth was then filled

PASSENGERS RUSH EAST
HEAVY TICKET SALES REPORTED
IS ALL RAILROADS.
Hundreds Take Advantage of the
Last Opportunity- to Get
Lott Rates.
At no time since June were the sales
of round trip first-class tickets from
Portland to Eastern points as heavy as
they were yesterday. If the sales in the
rest of the Northwest territory compared
equally with those of Portland, not less
than 000 persons purchased tickets for
the Eastern trip.
Estimating the result on the basis of
yesterday's ticket sales, passenger men
declare that fully .1100 persons secured
tickets during the past two days. This
Is an unusually good business, despite the
fact that low- rates augmented the rush
and passengers realized that there would
be no further opportunity this year of go
ing East at low fares.
The big June rush out of the Northwest
territory was due largely to the fact that
hundreds of teachers took advantage of
the opportunity to attend the sessions of
tho National Educational Association.
Others going away on their summer vaca
tions gave the movement all the appear
ance of a big Eastern rush.
There were no aids to travel similar to
those of June to stimulate the showing
of the past few days. No large party
went out from any point, and there were
no delegations of secret societies or other
organizations. The business was strictly
of a personal character, and its volume
has surprised railroad men.
If anything may be judged from the sale
of tickets, comparatively few persons go
ing East now will go beyond Chicago. The
inquiries regarding lines east of that point
were few, and the representatives of
Eastern lines had little business to dis
turb them. The St. Paul, Missouri River
and Chicago territories drew the crowds.
Of course many who purchased tickets
during the past two days may not go
East until the last of the week. Under
the terms of sale the ten days' going
limit means that the passenger holding a
ticket must be on the last road of the
Journey on the tenth day. This gives op
portunities for short stopovers on -the.
eastbound trip or for a delay in leaving
Portland for the East, and travelers are
taking advantage of the opportunity to
delay departure.
The dates of sale of the last low rates
quoted this year by the transcontinental
lines allow passengers to reach Eastern
destinations after the. summer heat has
moderated. They will be able to spend
their time East during the delightful fall
weather and have a great advantage In
this way over the travelers who took ad
vantage of early sales. It is probably due
to this fact that the number of persons
going East was so large, for It is appar
ent to railroad men that the travel was
induced merely by a desire to pay friendly
visits. Comparatively little of it was
based on business reasons.
Ficuros on vpstri"flv,R tirlrnt raise nil.
not be had by passenger men for several
days, but It is not difficult to make a
conservative estimate of the minimum
amount of sales that must have been
made. A single transcontinental office
had sold SS round trip tickets late yes
terday afternoon. On this basis the sales
out of Portland alone must have exceeded
200 and from the Northwest territory, COO.
The first day's business was lighter, but
the total for the two days cannot have
amounted to less than 1100.
The routing of this business shows the
passengers are seeking pleasure. Most of
the tickets read so passengers can make
one going trip and return by another
route to the point of departure. Liberal
stopover privileges were sought.
WILL ADVERTISE THE FAIR,
Nevr York Central Is the First Rail
road to Act.
The first railroad to make definite ar
rangements for advertising the Lewis and
Clark exposition, during the course of Its
regular business. Is the New York Cen
tral. The passenger department of that
line has prepared a line of advertising for
the magazines and intends to put it out
at once.
The plan of the New York Central's ad
vertising Is purely a Lewis and Clark con
tennial move. Copies of a magazine ad
vertisement to be put forth Immediately
were received by local representatives of
the road yesterday. This shows a map
of one half of the globe, with several of
the New York Central's lines and connec
tions Indicated as reaching Portland.
Across the globe are printed these
words: "BIrdseye view of the trip by the
New York Central lines and connections
from New Yorg, Boston, El Paso and the
East to the Lewis and Clark Centennial
at Portland. Or., in l&CS."
A further promise of publicity in con
nection with the fair is contained in this
statement- found in the advertisement:
"The Four Track News will have consid
erable to say about this exposition."
The Four Track News is a publication
of the passenger department of the New
York Central. The intimation - that the
publication intends to speak of the fair
means that the publishers will use a se
ries of illustrated articles on that theme.
The Four Track News, having a wide cir
culation among railroad men, those inter
ested In that business, and the general
public, will spread the fame of the Lewis
and Clark exposition In new directions.
DAY TRIPS OX T. J. POTTER.
O. R. & X. Announces Nctc Schedule
from the Beaches.
The passenger department of the O. R.
& N. announced yesterday a series of spe
cial day trips to be made by the com
pany's steamer T. J. Potter from points
in the North Beach to Portland. In con
nection with the company's Ilwaco line,
the Potter will give a daylight ride into
Portland on four days to accommodate
those who have been spending the summer
at the beach. On Friday the boat will
leave Ilwaco at noon, arriving In Port
land at S:15 P. M.; on September 2 and 4
the departure from Ilwaco is timed for
930 A. M. and the arrival In Portland for
5:35 P. M. The Potter left Ilwaco yester
day at 11:30 A. M. and arrived in Portland
at 7:45 P. M.
One of the strong reasons for making
the daylight run Into Portland Is that the
GOT TO
Have Sharp Brains Nowadays or
Drop Bnclc
The man of today, no matter what his
calling, needs a sharp brain, and to get
this he needs food that not only -jives
muscle and strength but brain and nerve
power as well.
A carpenter and builder of Marquette,
Mich., who is energetic and wants to ad
vance in his business read an article
about food in a religious paper, and in
speaking of his experience he said: "Dp
to three years ago I had not been able to
study or use my thinking powers to any
extent. There was something lacking.
and I know now that it was due to the
fact that my food was not rebuilding my
brain.
"About this lime I began the use of
the condensed food Grape-Nuts,- and the
result has been I can think and plan with
some success. It has not only rebuilt
my brain until it is stronger and surer
and more active, but my muscles are also
harder and more Arm. where they used
to be loose and soft, and my stomach is
now In perfect condition. I can endure
more than twice the amount of fatltrue.
and my nights' rest always completely
restores me. In other words, I am en
joying life, and I attribute it to the fact
that I have found a. perfect food." Name
given by Posltnn Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Potter on its night trips can only accom
modate 200 passengers while In the day
time more than twice that number can
be carried. The day run Into the city Is
also a great accommodation to the people
at the beach.
PLUMBERS ON STRIKE.
Employers Sax They Have Plenty of
Men Strikers Deny It.
Though a strike of the union plumbers
is on in Portland, no one seems to know
it. If the season were Winter, when the
water pipes sometimes freeze and no
plumber could be found to make repairs,
a mighty wall would go up, but August is
the plumbers' holiday, anyway.
No more men have left the plumbing
Bhops, as the majority quit yesterday
morning. The members of the Master
Plumbers' Association, interviewed on the
subject yesterday declared that within a
few days they would have all the plumb
ers they wanted. The strikers say with
equal firmness that good plumbers are
hard to get, and that the greater number
of those who enter town are members of
their union, and cannot, therefore, work
in their places while the strike is on.
