( -.r rv,4io TSDmrwrnts will call together
their County Central Committee of 70
immortals and pick out the inheritance of
judges and clerks to whom they are enti
tled by law.
"Who will be the nine pillars of the Re

f. nriii nn hv virtue of his chalr-
lnaashlp of the county committee, and
f -will name all the others. He may choose
".gentlemen wherever he finds them, either
In the central committee or elsewhere,
etoce the central committee allowed him
that discretionary authority when it met
' last Wednesday night
The Judge was at Salem yesterday and
when he returned last night, said that he
had not yet decided upon the personnel of
the committee. A. A. Courteney will
probably be a member; also A. J. Capron
and Frank S. Grant. Others mentioned as
possible appointees are: Alex Donaldson,
. 0. G. Willis. T. C. Powell, E. G. Clark,
Thad S. Potter, Herbert Holman and J.
W. Mathena. All the foregoing stalwarts
.are nobles on the central committee.
The last managing committee comprised
15 worshipers of the faith, only six of
whom belonged to the central committee.
But th'i time, there Is reason to believe
that most or all of the managing commit
tee will be drawn from the higher body.
Nor it is likely that many old managers
rcill be retained. The six brethren of the
central committee, who "managed" in
the last campaign were F. A. Bancroft,
since appointed Postmaster; George H.
Howell, of whose allegiance the Mitchell
ltes are not quite sure; A. A. Courteney,
Dr. B. G. Clark, D. S. Dunbar and E. H.
Kelly. The others of the 15 were: W.v F.
Matthews, since elevated to be United
States Marshal; P. L. Willis. S. B.
Schwab, C. A. Malarkey, H. a Smith,
George H. Lamberson, H. W. Goddard, W.

Judge Carey and his aids have been pre
paring a list or election juages ana ciems
and the roster is almost complete, it win
contain ever so many names, 00 perhaps.
The county has 83 precincts, each of which
will have three judges and three clerks
and most of which will have a double
quota of those officers. D. R. Webster,
County Judge, announced yesterday that
the County Court will appoint the Judges
and clerks either next week or the week
after.
Ultchell people will put off the prima
, Ties just as long as possible; that's why
thy favor April 2. And unless that day
Mould delay the state convention too late
In the month, it will undoubtedly bo
chosen. The elections will come off June
6, and the primaries must be held CO days
before that time. F. S. Fields, County
Clerk, must give ten days' notice; conse
quently he will announce the day of the
primaries late In March, two months
hence.
Democrats will call together their bright
est lights next Wednesday night for a
grand pow-wow of their County Central
Committee. Alex Sweek, chairman, said
yesterday that the committee will then
make up a list of cligibles for judges and
clerks of election. This meeting was to
have been held tonight, but Judge Sweek
decided not to be in too big a hurry. The
Democratic County Central Committee
consists of the following mlghtles: T. E.
Maher, M. C. Davis, James Gleason, Den

"We shall be satisfied," proclaimed
Alex Sweek last night, "if the County
Court will appoint our judges and clerks.
We shall recommend only one Judge and
one clerk for each election board."
"But supposing the County Court
doesn't?" was asked.
"We've got a good court this time," was
the response.
The Judge declared that Democrats
wouldn't fuse again. Though he had been
elected to the Legislature by fusion, he
said he would have been elected anyhow,

rns to work to promote a sentiment favor
able to the nomination of President Roose
velt, and Mr. Stapleton said he would not
consent to give time to any other cause.
He said that the state might be considered
safe for Roosevelt, but that it was a good
thing to have It announced broadcast, as It
would help Oregon get tKe Lewis and

Duniway and J. L. Weils wore appointed

. WEIGHT TOLD HE IS LYING.
Noted Promoter Is Defended on Plea
of "Slips of the Tpngue."
LONDON', Jan. 51. Whlttaker Wright,
the promoter, on trial on the charge of
fraud, left the witness box today after
two days' cross-examination, during
which the Judge was prominent as welL
as the prosecuting counsel. The latter
designated as lies several of Wright's
statements regarding various amounts,
some as large as $2,500,000. appearing on
the credit side of the London & Globe
Corporation's balance sheet, but the de
fendant contended that they .were merely
"slips of the tongue." He concluded by
declaring that the failure of the British
American Company was caused by the
malice of a group of members of the
London Stock" Exchange who depreciated
the London & Globe shares. Wright
added he' was left with J2.000.000 worth
of these shares.
He estimated that- bis loss- in Lake
views was from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000.
and said he had mortgaged his property
and sold his house in Park Lane In or
der to save John Flower and other brok
era wrio were engaged In sustaining the
operators.
Wright declared all his actions were
legitimate, and bad been approved by the
boaid of directors who had also approved
of "window dressing" the balance . sheets,
which practice, the defendant asserted,
prevailed in th6 city in connection with
all companies and banks whose business
it was tc make the beat' possible showing
at the end of the financial year. All the
assets credited in the balance sheet to
the ljondon & Globe, he added, were bona
fide, with the exception of 52,500.000,
which rightfully belonged to the Standard
Company. From beginning to end,
Wright asserted, there had been no fraud
or concealment on his part. The trial
was adjourned.
EECEPE0CITY IS CONDEMNED.
Tariff League Does Not Want It as
Regards Competitive Products.
NEW YORK, Jan. 21. The 19th annual '
meeting of the American Protective Tar
iff Leasue was held today. The report oi
the secretary showed a membership of 878
in 22 different states.
Charles A. Moore, of New Tork, was
elected president. In the board of man
agers, D. M. Ferry, of Michigan, succeed
ed Senator Francis E. Warren, of Wyom
ing.
The tariff league unanimously adopted
the following address to the protectionists
of the United States:
With a foreign trade aggregating $2,500,-
000.000 and steadily growing, it would seem
we are already, getting a fair share of
the world's traffic. But It must not be
forgotten that our internal trade reaches
$20,000,000,000 yearly. To the care and pres
ervation of the great home market, with
its trade of $30,000,000,000, protection stands
especially committed. ;
"In annual meeting assembled, we re
affirm the position taken by the tariff I
league adopted on January 15, 1903, and '
declare: i
"That reciprocity in competitive pro
ducts is unsound in principle, pernicious ,
in practice, and condemned by experience.
It is contrary alke to the National policy
oE protection, to the fair treatment of do- ,
mestlc producers, and to friendly relations
with foreign countries.
'It Is neither ethical, nor economic.
since It seeks to bonefit some industries by
the sacrifice of othors. The true Ameri
can policy Is the protection of all the op
portunities and possibilities of the Amer
ican market for American enterprises,
and fair, equal trade treatment for all
other countries."
.Fire Destroys Large Machine Shops.
NEW YORK, Jan. 2L Fire in Jersey
City today destroyed two buildings occu
pied by Brown & Miller's machine shops
and a number of small machinery con
cerns. Loss, $150,000.

DIES UNDER THE KNIFE
WILLIAM FABER EXP1RES-WHILE
BEING OPERATED ON.
Was Dealer in Hops and the Most
. Prominent Brewer In the Wil
lamette Valley.
William Faber, who died at the North
Pacific Sanitarium Wednesday night
! while undergoing a surgical operation,
was widely known throughout the Wil
lamette Valley as a brewer and dealer
in hops.
As president of the Albany Brewing
Company, with which he has been asso
ciated for between 15 and 20 years, he
was the most pfcminent brewer in the
The Late William Faber.
Valley. As a member of the Faber-Nels
Co., dealers In hops, which has offices
at both Albany and Salem, his name is
familiar to the people of hop sections
on the Coast. k
His death came suddenly and was not
expected by his many friends. Tuesday
he was walking "about the streets, at
tending to his dally routine of business.
Wednesday he was taken suddenly 111 and
his condition was so bad that he was
removed at once to uie hospital. The
only hope was a prompt operation, but,
as soon as the incision was made, the
doctors saw that there was no hope.
Jlia lossof blood from internal hem
orrhages had left him weak and the
arteries were so badly Injured that the
flow of blood could not be checked. The
cause of his trouble was afterward found
to be a cancer of the stomach, which had
so far taken hold of his system as to
leave that organ almost useless. His
friends say that ho has shown symptoms
of poor healtn for the past few years,
and that upon several' occasions before
he was taken with sudden spells of Ill
ness. Mr. Faber was born in Germany in 1S56.
He first came to Oregon almost 20 years
ago and at once started the Albany
brewery. He made his home In Albany
until a year ago, when he moved to
Portland and secured a residence at 334
Eleventh street.
The funeral services will be held at
the home, Sunday, at 11 A. M., and the re
mains taken to the cremator.
TO LET PANAMA GO ITS WAY.
War Feeling Jn Colombia Is Dying
Out Rapidly.
NEW YORK, Jan. 2L Mall advices re
ceived from Bogota Indicate, according to
a Herald dispatch from Panama, that the
war feeling In Colombia is dying out, and'
there is a general desire to allow the Pan
ama secession to pass without a dis
astrous war.
Heretofore the newspapers of the capi
tal have been filled with patriotic declar-
atlons-that It would be necessary to have
a war to reclaim the lost territory. Now
all nrge conciliation or anything to avoid
further serious complications. Juan B.
Perezzote. who has been agitating war
with the United States by speeches and
writings, is reported to have been placed
under arrest.
From Cartagena comes the report of
great financial depression and the desire
to establish business relations with the
Isthmus. ' Cartagena formerly had the
main outlet for her poultry, eggs and hides
In Colon. This" port is how closed to Co
lombian trade, and there has been, no
substitute. Shipments made from Carta
gena to the aimy at Atrata. are at ruin
ous rates.
SHODDY A GOOD THING.
Pleases the Consumer and Hurts Not
the Woolgrower.
PORTLAND. Jan. 2L (To the Editor.)
Permit me to state, anent the remarks of
some of the worthy representatives of
livestock men and woolgrowers, more es
pecially the latter. In their condemnation
of the so-called "shoddy," that in the first
place, the word "shoddy" Is a provincial
ism or a derivative of slang, given. I pre
sume, by the "all-wool-and-a-yard-wide"
men of my own Bhlre of York. England, in
derision or contempt, and In their opinion
a fitting word for anything In the shape of
a wool staple that might be substituted
for the wool direct from the sheep's back.
These gentlemen would have legislation
debarring shoddy, that they may have an
open field of monopoly oh, no, not that,
but they say that the people are cheated.
They would give the people all-wool
clothes; yes. all the people, whether all
the people could afford to pay for their
monopolized .all-wool-made garments or
not. What philanthropic woolgrowers we
have here!
Now, we will first take "shoddy" what
Is it? It Is a wool pure, so to speak, made
from not necessarily old cast-off clothes
but of new cloth; perhaps half the wool
shoddy manufactured into new cloth Is
made from clean new tailors' clippings,
etc If Imported, these rags are submit
ted to a fumigation at all ports of landing,
wherever handled. Unless they are strictly
all wool they aresubmitted (in their re
manufacture) to" a carbonizing pro
cess which destroys all cotton or vegetable
matter that may be In the rags; then they
are thoroughly washed, etc; then torn up
in special machinery and according, to
length of staple the goods wjll give, they
are mixed with clean, clear wool, and
sometimes raw cotton, to form a yarn
that will spin .and weave. The classes of
"goods made from these staples are cheap
and reach the poorer purses of our vast
communities. The rarer or more expen
sively made all-wool or worsted goods go
to the people with better-filled purses.
Now, what would our anti-shoddy men
do? They would, have legislation to "tag"
each garment made up of part shoddy in
the cloth, that the manufacturer makes, or
that the retail dry goods man sells, as
"part shoddy" or "so many parts shod
dy." There are others who would have
our United States prohibit the importa
tion, domestication, manufacture or use
of "shoddy" In toto. What an army of Gov
ernment, "shoddy" Inspectors, and what a
chance for political grafters!
Let me tell these "antis" one and all
.that shoddy "all-wool shoddy" which
they would kick out of existence, cre
mate or otherwise destroy, .is one of the
greatest economic wares we have, and
that it is their (tho woolgrowers' and as
sociates') best and kindest friend. In their
anti speeches and writings, do they really
consider the poorer classes, or have they
a blind eye to the people and an open
avaricious eye to the possible gain to their
own already overprotected business, and
who would be the experts to determine
the make-up of a piece of cloth? If
shoddy goes,, what about cotton? The
manufacturers can use cotton just as dex
terously as shoddy. What are they doing
in Bedford, England, and have been doing
for some years past, since they felt the
pinch of the high protective McKinley tar
iff wall? Why, they neither use wool
from the woolgrowers nor shoddy from
the despised rags in order to make goods
to compete In the United States markets.
They have worked hard and patiently
with cotton, so that in manufacture, dye
and finish, a nonexpert jcould scarcely. If
at all, recognize the all-cotton fabrics
from genuine all-wool or all-worsted
goocjs, and so they have built up a great
trade especially to get into this protected
market, and do it successfully and at
great profit, so that the antls must be
ware they do not dig a pit for themselves
to fall Into. These are not our great
grandfathers' days, when three good
broadcloth suits, yes, often 6ne, fitted him
a lifetime. The people want novelty and
cheap, good-looking clothes, so that it
does not cost so much to keep in line of
fashion, etc Shoddy helps; cotton, also.
All wool would not help the people In
their desire for change and novelty, neith
er would It the woolgrower, the manufac
turer, the dry goods man or the tailor.
I think these gentlemen, the woolgrow
ers, would be far better paid for services
rendered If they turned their attacks on
our pernicious tariff on raw wool, and
fought against that. Instead of against
their greatest auxiliary friend, shoddy.
Invite all wool manufacturers to our wool
markets, as ln London, Antwerp, etc
They would double their flocks very soon.
and wool would never decline In price as
long as there Is sufficient demand for It
and the markets of the world being open
and free to all bidders and comers, as sure
as the sun- rules the day and the moon the
night, the wool Industry of these United
States would grow and grow. Have they
not done so In Australia under the regime
of an open world market? Then you or wo
could get the grades of wool we cannot
successfully raise, viz., coarse carpet
wools. We would then have wool In place
of Jute and Its accessories In our cheaper
carpets.
If the woolgrowers In the United States
will build up and .assist in building up
manufactures of their staple article they
will not in so doing try to pull down an
industry of great dimensions and of the
utmost Importance, and Indeed the great
est auxiliary to all pure wool that has
been Instituted since the woolen manufac
turing Industry emerged from the hand
comber, the hand-gln spinner, and the
hand-loom weaver. We, nor they, cannot
afford to turn back to those days, as, In
tne words of the poet Goldsmith:
Times are altered; trade's unfeellns train
Usurps the throne and disendows the swain.

ROBBERS ARE COOL
Make Grocery Man' Unlock
His Gash Drawer.
VICTIM HOLDS HANDS HIGH
But No One Passes the Store to No
tice His Signals of Dlstress-A .
Lone Customer . Also
Is Plundered.
Two armed and masked highwaymen last
night entered the grocery and feed store
at 33) Water street, owned by William
Strahlman. After ordering the proprietor
and T. ilayhew. who was the only other
person in the store, to stand with their
faces to the wall and their hands high over
their heads while they tried in vain to
unlock the cash drawer, the robbers
forced Strahlman at the point of a re
volver to walk to the till, unlock it and
turn over the J 125 in cash to the robbers.
The pockets of both men were also gone
through, but Mayhew's loss was small. Ho
bad been in the. store for the purpose Of
paying a bill and had just turned over the
money and seen It safely credited on the
books when the hlnhwavmen rushed In.
Although the robbery was committed at'
7:30 c'clock and In a portion of the city
where there 4s considerable business at
that hour, no one passed or entered the
Etoro for the quarter of an hour the rob
bers were at their work. .
The description obtained of the despera
does was poor. They both wore white
cloths over their faces with holes punched
throuph for the eyes. When they canto In
It was with a rush and an imperative
manner.
"Throw up your hands or we will blow
your heads off," was the startling an
nouncement that the victims listened to
just as they had concluded their business
transaction. The robbers were cool and
determined and showed from the first that
they meant business.
"Throw up your hands and be quick
about it," they repeated as the men hesi
tated for a seiond. so startled that they
scarcely knew their own actions.
Four hands went into the air as if by
a single Impulse and the men were then
ordered to march to the back of tho store
and turn their faces to the wall. When
the highwaymen thought that they would
stand as ordered both started out in
search of the plunder. There was a door
very close to the place where they had
been stood against the wall, and Mayhew
whispered softly: ;
Can't we get through that door and
make a run for help?"
The nearest man evidently heard even
this slight noise, for he forsook the search
for plunder and returned to his stand be
hind the two victims.
One move for the door," he said, "and
I will shoot you both dead." ,
All was silence from this time until the
men had tried for several minutes to force
open the cash drawer, which was one of
the old-fashioned kind that has a combina
tion of locks underneath.
Come and unlock, it," they ordered of
tfie proprietor. '
H came and at first pretended that ho
had forsroten the combination himself.
"No, you haven't," said the robber. "You
know It and I will-give you just one min
ute to open it or 1 will blow your head
off." He spoke in such a determined man
ner that the man was afraid to disobey
longer upon any pretense.
I held my hands very high, as I crossed
to the front of the store," said he after
the robbery. "In the hope of attracting the
attention of some one that might be pass
ing, but there was absolutely not a person
passed the place or came to the store dur
ing the time they were in there."
After they had secured the money from
the cash drawer the robbers turned their
attention to the pockets of the two men,
and obtained but a small amount of
mon?y.
"Now. thero Is a 'lookout man on the
outside," said the robbers as. they were
ready to start on their retreat. "Put your
faces to tne wall and If either one of you
turn around before 10 minutes have passed
you will be shot instantly by the man on
the outside." Both victims declare that
they turned and made for the door as soon
as ihey were sure thehlghwaymen were
on the outside, but they also say that not
a person was to be seen in any direction
when they did appear on the streets.

"It Is up to Alaska to send back a solid
delegation, for there seems more than a
