TO TALK ON. MINING
Mass-Meeting of Citizens Is
Called for Tonight.
ARRANGING FOR CONGRESS
Executive Committee of American
Mining Congress Will Prepare .
Programme and Address
Business Men.
The mass-meeting- to be held at the
Commercial Club this evening in honor
of the officers of the American Mining
Congress promises to be one of the most
enthusiastic and spontaneous gatherings
of Portland's citizens held In years. Al
though it has been arranged on short
notice, assurances are coming in from
every direction which indicate that the
meeting will be thoroughly representa
tive. Seven hundred postal card invita
tions have been sent out, and It is
probable that the capacity of the club
rooms will be taxed.
Governor George EL Chamberlain will
preside, and addresses will be delivered
by Mayor Williams, President J. H.
Richards, of Boise; Vice-President
Thomas Ewlnjr, of California, and "Secre
tary Irwin Mahon, of the Congress. The
committee in charge, which consists of
A. I. Morris. P. W. Custer, O. M. Crouch,
M. Mosessohn and W. E. Coman, has
been very active in the brief time allowed
them for arranging details. The meeting
Is of the utmost importance to Portland
and the state, and it is imperative that
everyone interested in the upbuilding of
the community realize this.
The Mining Congress Is, in all probabil
ity, the greatest National organization
which will ever visit this section. It
represents hundreds of millions of capi
tal and the best brains of the country.
Men of international reputation as ora
tors and financiers. Cabinet Ministers,
members of the National Legislature and
industrial experts will lead the discus
sions. The railroads have offered allur
ing rates and thousands of delegates and
visitors will be drawn here for the ses
sion. It will serve to magnificently ad
vertise the city, state and the Lewis
and Clark Fair. The sessions will occupy
a week at a time when Portland is at
her best and to make it the red-letter
week of her history, the citizens should
rise to the occasion and be satisfied with
nothing short of a triumph. The various
commercial bodies have taken the inlative
In calling tonight's meeting, which will
be the opening of a five months' cam
paign to make good the challenge that
Oregon, and Portland in particular, are
the best places on earth.
Colonel Ewing stated the case last
evening when he said: 'This coming
meeting is the most critical one in the
history of the Congress. It will be a
turning ' point and the most Important
session, by long odds, which we have
ever held. Matters of the highest Im
portance will be considered and acted
upon. Every responsible mining man In
the country will want to come, and an
army of them will be here, along with
representatives of the Government, of
transportation companies and financial
concerns. It will do more to bring this
city and state Into prominence than a
half million dollars spent in advertising.
1 know Oregon thoroughly. Her mineral
resources have only been scratched. This
-state has more undeveloped mineral de
posits than any similar area In the civil
ized world. You want capital to know the
facts. Oregon's resources, particularly
her mines, will be featured by the Con
gress. If you people take hold properly,
millions of dollars can be brought into
the state for development purposes, which
in turn will yield multiplied millions In
products. Portland, as the center .and
distributing point, will derive untold bene
fits from the awakening which will follow
our sessions. Within 30 days I have been
told' by responsible men In the Black
Hills IMstrict that between four and
five millions of dollars have been in
vested in South Dakota as the direct re
sult of our meeting at Deadwood last
year. These figures can be doubled or
trebled here, if you people will take
advantage of the opportunity and jgo In
to win. One day of our session will be
devoted to the 1903 Fair, and It will be
advertised as it could not possibly be in.
any other way. At Deadwood last year
I did everything in my power to bring
this meeting here. My heart Is set upon
making it the greatest ever held and
I believe your people are public-spirited
enough to justify my faith in them."
A conference of the executive commit
tee of the Congress will be held this
afternoon at the Portland Hotel. The
programme of the National session will
be outlined and a third vice-president
will be elected to succeed the late Colo
nel John T. Grayson. J. Frank Watson,
who Is filling the place by appointment,
will be formally elected. Headquarters
for Secretary Mahon will be decided upon
and matters of general policy will be
discussed. Judge Richards and Colonel
Ewing will leave tomorrow for their
homes, but will visit the city frequently
between this time and the convention.
how mormonism: grows.
Judge Richards Explains Expansion
of the Church in Idaho.
"The Mormon Church in Idaho is grow
ing," said Judge J. H. Richards, of Boise,
who . stands at the head of the bar of
that state, will in all probability belts
next Governor, and Is here in the ca-'
pacity of president of the American Min
ing Congress, at the Portland last even
ing. "There is no thin tr remarkable In rh
' fact; ?and it is not especially startling. The
jiormuos cusi uuuul une-inira OI tne
votes at our elections, and they are a
prominent factor in our development.
While some of them have moved over
from Utah, by far the greater number are
proselytes from other states and from Eu
rope. They are generally good citizens,
and I see no reason to regard them as a
menace. The reason for the Increase in
membership Is eartly found when one
understands Ihe Interest the church takes
in the material welfare of its members.
"For instance, its missionaries in Swe
den find a young man who has recently
married and Is anxious to get on in the
world. He is young, strong and industri
ous, but poor. They offer him a farm in
Idaho and every opportunity to. improve
hia fortunes. They bring him over, put
him on SO acres of good land, -the U thing
house supplies him with a team, wagon
and Implements, the neighbors help him
to build a log house and the bishop ad
vises him in matters of business. He is
bound to succeed and he naturally looks
upon the church as his best friend. There
are no very poor in our Mormon set-'
tlements. Everybody works and the
church has a paternal care that those
who may be unfortunate are helped and
protected.
"I do not believe that polygamy Is gen
erally practiced among them and in the
rare instances where it does exist the
plural marriages were entered into years
ago. long before the manifesto. I have
visited in their homes and had many deal
ings , with them, and have found them
good people. As I say, they cast a third
of our vote and could hold the balance of
power If they voted as a unit; they do
not do so. While to a certain ex
tent the church official's advise their
people" In political matters, they do not
require them to act together and do not
use undue influence over them. I do not
regard them as corrupt. The only danger,
as I see It is in legislative caucuses where
they usually act together for the best in
fests of the church.
"The fight which Senator Dubois is mak
ing on the church is the fight of his life.
He is making his campaign for re-election
three years hence and -will keep It up until
that time. He is a consummate politician,"
and has enlisted many powerful Influ
ences in his cause. If there Is corruption
In the Mormon Church in Utah and else
where, as hemalntains, he will turn It up
side down be'fore he quits. If he can suc
ceed in splitting both the political parties
in Idaho on the religious question he will
be returned to the Senate, but, if he falls,
he will be down and out forever. He
knows this and makes no secret of the
fact that his political existence depends on
the present fight.
"The confirmation of Woolly as Govern
ment Assayer in our state is generally
satisfactory to the people. The opposi
tion to him was entirely personal, and was
not nearly so strong as outsiders have
been led to believe. The Mormon ques
tion did not enter into the case to any
considerable extent."
MAP OF RAILROADS.
Senate. Committee Reports Bill "to
Have Government Prepare It.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, March 20. It Is quite proba
ble that Congress will pass the bill
recently Introduced by Senator Blklns, of
West "Virginia, authorizing the director of
the geological survey to issue a railroad
map of the United States. It was the
purpose of Senator Elklns in Introducing
this bill to have an official map showing
all lines of railroad In the United States.
Nothing of this sort has ever been pub
lished before by the Government, and
shipping Interests have been obliged to
rely upon maps prepared by the rail
roads themselves.
The Inaccuracy of the average railroad
map Is everywhere recognized. In order
to show all of the railroads In the United
States and to designate each line by Its
proper name It will be necessary to make
a map on a scale of 16 miles an Inch,
which would make a wall map 15 feet
long and 10 feet high. To prepare plates
to put out the first edition of the rail
road map will cost $20,000.
The Senate committee on Interstate
commerce approves of the Blklns bill and
has reported it with a recommendation
that it shall pass. In addition to show
ing the railroad lines of the United States,
this map will, also show connecting lines
in Canada and in Mexico. The map will
be printed under contract with private
firms.
WILL MODIFY GAME LAW.
Wilson Says New Alaska Legislation
Will Then Be Unnecessary.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, March 20. In a letter to Senator
Ankeny, Secretary Wilson, of the Agri
cultural Department, expresses the opin
ion that no further legislation looking to
the protection of game in Alaska is nec
essary at this time. The Secretary be
lieves that ample protection can be af
forded under the present law. If the exist
ing regulations are modified. It Is his
purpose to extend the open season on
bears to cover practically the whole
year, to extend the open season on deer
by at least two months, and to also ex
tend the open season on water fowl. On
the other hand, It is proposed to shorten
the season for the killing of walrus and
to further restrict the Issuance of per
mits for the shipment of trophies from
the Kenat peninsula. With this regula
tion In force, the Secretary believes there
will be no further complaint on account
of the game laws In Alaska.
POUND WITH HEAD CUT. .
Unknown Man Discovered in Door
way on Sixth Street.
A man who Is supposed to have met
with foul play was found In an uncon
scious condition in the doorway of Nau's
drugstore, in the Portland Hotel, at 2
o'clock this morning. When he regained
consciousness he was unable to give his
name. A bundle of music found near him
leads to the belief that he is a musician in
some variety theater.
Officers Mlllis and Isaacs brought the
nrnn to the police station and Assistant
City Physician Slocum was summoned.
Numerous cuts on the stranger's head
were sewed, it being necessary to take
six stitches in one of the cuts.
The Associated Press In Asia.
Review of Reviews.
The Associated Press, the chief organ
ization for news-gathering in America,
haTnlne trained war correspondents at
strategic points In the East when fighting
began, and immediately dispatched three
more. Melville Stone, general manager
of the Associated Press, obtained an au
dience with the Czar, and was promised
that in the official dispatches by way of
the Trans-Siberian telegraph line should
be put at the service of the American
company as quickly and extensively as the
situation would allow, and Howard
Thompson, a veteran war correspondent,
was hurried to St. Petersburg to take
charge. Consequently, New York has had
the benefit of a number of Viceroy Alex
leff's official reports only - a few hours
after they were received In St. Petersburg.
Similarly. Mr. Egan, the Associated Press
staff correspondent In Toklo, is persona
grata - with the Japanese government.
When the Mikado had Issued his view of
the causes leading up to the war, Mr.
Egan spent 52000 In cable tolls to get this
document before New Yorkers' eyes a few
hours before It would be given out
through, the Japanese Embassy In Wash
ington, and succeeded in easily beating
the official channels.
White Men and Japanese at War.
William, Armstrong and Charles Barr
were arrested on a charge of assault and
battery yesterday afternoon. The com
plainant, Gonji Nil. a Japanese, has two
black eyes as evidence of the assault. The
trouble occurred In a North End house
on Friday night and the Japanese com
menced to make It too hot for Armstrong
and his companion, who were forced to
run without their hats. Armstrong and
Barr reiurned for the hats yesterday aft
ernoon and were arrested by Officers
Batty and Adams. Barr promptly fur
nished $20 ball and says he was not pres
ent at the time of the trouble and will
prove an - alibi In court this morning.
They Confess More Burglaries.
William Dean and Harry Richmond, the
burglars who were captured by Detectives
Day. Welner and Vaughn on Saturday
night, have admitted several other bur
glaries recently committed, among them
being those at the residence of M. F.
Jones, 350 Tillamook; George W. Hoyt's
residence at 145 North Sixteenth street,
and M. Benecke, 541 Grand avenue. Dean
says he sold two solid gold watches and
a pair of opera glasses for $8 to a farmer
whom he met on the street.
Wages Temporarily Reduced.
MUNCIE. Ind.. March .20. The Midland
mill, the local plant of the American
Sheet Steel Company, which has been
closed since August last, will probably
resume within two weeks. The 600 idle
employes met tonight and accepted 'tem
porarily the reduction of 20 per cent
which the steel company has demanded
of its employes.

Georgia "Sane and Dangerous."
Philadelphia Record.
Southern Democrats were never enthusi
astic over Bryan, nor, did they originate
the free silver demand, though they felt
the need of more currency and It was
generally believed among them that free
coinage would supply the needed circula
tion. The South therefore gives up the
Nebraska man without much of a pang,
and a canvass of the Georgia State Com-i
mlttee shows that 15 of the members are
for "a sound, conservative candidate," six
for Cleveland, five for Gorman, four for
Parker, three for Hearst and three for
anybody but Hearst. Georgia Democrats
are xertainly "sane and dangerous."
