tion Professor Carr Speaks .
Aon Disregard of Law.
GUTHRIE. Okla.. June S. The action
if James A. Benn, city editor of the
Philadelphia North American, In in
fecting state politics into an address
before the National Editorial Associa
tion here today, has caused a fight in
the Pennsylvania delegation .which
maybe carried before the association
tomorrow. The subject of Mr. Benn's
address was "Muzzles in Pennsylvania,"
and his attack -was directed against
the late Senator. M. S. .Quay and his
biograpner. Governor Pennypacker. His
action took Quay's friends in the con
ventlbn completely by surprise. Tonight
F. B. McKee, of Freeport: T. H. Harter.
of Belleronte, and F. S. Phelps, of Erie,
Pa., assert that they will present a
resolution tomorrow condemning Sir.
Benn'i course.
Mr. Benn. in his address, reviewed
Ihe organization of the Quay machine
and the events leading up to the pass
age of the Pennypacker libel law. He
blamed Mr. Quay for this severe law,
eaying that it was Quay's Governor
who instigated it. Ho closed by saying:
Should Leave Stainless Records.
There never was a Quay or Pennypacker
born -who oould form or Invent a measure
that would restrict the liberty of the prea
or hamper It In Its constitutional right of pub
lic utterance. If the Quays of Pennsylvania
desire "untxnirched biographic, .let them leave
behind them record free from stain. If the
Fennypackers of Pennsylvania or any other
commonwealth In this Union, desire to ef
fectually muzzle the pre, they mud hie
thenwjvc to some other land, in the funda
mental law of which It Is not written. "The
freedom of the press ought net to. be .re
stricted." President Screws delivered his an
nual address this morning. Other ad
dresses were given by . Colonel John
Dymond. of New Orleans: D. H. Butler,
of Lincoln, Neb.; Miss Virginia C
Clay, of Huntsvllle, Ala.; A. F. Sheldon,
of Chicago; J. W. Carr. of Anderson,

ladles during the afternoon and to
night a similar reception is being ten

Temple.
Tne election of officers, the selection
of the next place of meeting and the
adoption of resolutions will take place
tomorrow morning.
Disease of Lawlessness.
John W. Carr. president of the depart
ment of superintendents of the National
Educational Association, delivered an ad
dress entitled, "The Public School and
the Public Press." He said In part:
Disregard for law Is- the most common, the
most lnsldloua and the most dangerous of all
cur National s4n. It Is so widespread and
Riticts fco many classes' that. If It Is not kept
down, it will become a-positive menace to
hociety. It inanlfcbts itself Jn various ways
and In all parts of the country. Children in
many homcK defy parental authority. Dema
gogues are all too frequently elected to office
only to betray the people they are supposed
to serve. Great labor organisations -seem to
rush Into unwise and unjustifiable strikes,
resulting In loss of property, acts of violence
and all too frequently terminating In blood
shed and murder. Some business men and
to-called good citizens resort to briber' and
all sorts of finesse In order to obtain valu
able franchises and other public utilities
without adequate compensation to the peo
ple. Great corporations sometimes rise to
opulence and power by resorting to espion
age, bribery, oppression and crimes of vari
ous sorts.
But In whateer form, whether as riots, or
roobx. or whltecapplngs. or lynching, or the,
evasion of the liquor laws, or perjury, or re
bates to ohlppers or tax-dodging or votc
buylng, or the prostitution of official posi
tion, or the purchase of Legislatures, it is
all one thing disregard for law.
Teach Children to Obey.
Now, if this National disease is to be cured,
we must go to the very root of the matter.
Children must he taught obedience and re
spect for law and constitutional authority.
There must beabetter discipline in the home
and in the pubncchMls. I do not pload for
the stornness. harshness and brutality of the
old-time discipline, but even that is prefer
able te much of our sentimentality that
causes us to be afraid to spank Johnnie for
rear he will die or will never love us any
more. But Johnnie will not die and he will
grow only the stronger In character and love
because his parents and teachers have taught
him a wholesome rogard for law. The pub
lic schools will miserably fall It there Is M)
proper discipline In .them- Chicago has ban
ished the rod from the schools, but she has
not done away with thfe policeman's club
and the fixed bayonets of an armed soldiery.
Dont Champion Every Kicker.
The public press can atsist greatly in the
maintenance of proper discipline In schools.
If the press insists on what shall be proper
discipline, if it refrains from giving undue
publicity Jn magnified form to every little
case that arises, if it refuses to champion
the cause of every callow youth who falls to
pass In his studies or has been spanked or
suspended on account of his misconduct. If
it declines to give the use of Its columns to
Tom. Dirk and Harry In order that they may
ah tholr grievances or get even with their
teacher eueh a policy will nltf teachers and
school officials not only In the maintenance
cf proper discipline In the schools but In the
development of citizens that will respect and
obey the law after they leave the schools.
While the public press can assist teachers
greatl In training children to respect and
obey law, yet It has a still greater privilege
and a hrgher duty to perform It U to de
mand that -adults obey the law, and that no
. lass be privileged to disregard It. This duty
and thl responsibility can no more he
eiaded than the sentinel can evade, respon
sibility for the welfare of the army, while
he Is on picket duty in the presence of the
enemy. I believe this problem to be of surh
importance that the history of our country
a til be affected by the solution that Is given.

on an adjoining sidetrack and took fire,
but they wore pushed away and saved
with but little damage. The loss Is esti
mated at about 52000.
A dog and pony outfit was giving a per

would have been disastrous.
Land Business Is Falling Off.
OLYMPIA. Wash., June 8. (Special.)
Robert Elwell, chief clerk in the' local
United States Land Office, has been
transferred to the Land Office at Walla
Walla under orders just received from
the department at Washington. The
change Is due to the falling off of the
business of the Olyrapla Land Office and
settlement of Government lands in this
district. It is a forerunner of the In
evitable end. the dosing of the office.
No one will take Mr. Swell's place In
the Olympla office, the Register ad Re

of the office after July 1.

WHAT NEWSPAPERS SAY
ABOUT THE EXPOSITION
Highly appreciative wrlteupo are given
the Lewis and Clark Exposition opening
by newspapers from the Atlantic lo the
Pacific.
"Some chief buildings of the Portland
Exposition opened yesterday, and Us
President U the heading the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat giros to a three-oolumn
picture of the Exposition and President
H. W. Goodc. A one-column and one
half news report Is furnished. "Just at
the crucial moment, of course, the chimes
at the Portland Fair, which were to play
"America" as the show was declared
open, did not play." writes P. H. C. In
the same paper. "The machinery got out
of order, and while Portland gathered
there in Summer array, feeling generally
wrought up. strained her ears for the
metallic boom-bim-pung of 'My Country.
"TIs of Thee, she never heard a blamed
thing. And the newspapers had been
working the populace up to this grand
emotional climax for weeks. How oxas
porated everybody must have been, most
of all the young man, who had been writ
ing the chimes article. Haven't many of
us been there? Well do we remember
what trepidation rested on our souls at
St. Louis, some of us, when Presi
dent Frarieis raised his hand and ma
jestically opened the World's Pair what
deep, chilling fear seized our hearts,
that something would "get out of order"
and the Cascades, on which every eye
was fixed would fall to flow. It was a
great cheer of relief as well as exultation,
when the foaming torrent came tumbling
down. It may have been thought that
It was the orations, the music, the Presi
dential button-touching that opened the
fair But it wasn't. To every spectator
assembled there it 'was the outburst of
the waterfall; such is the dramatic
human Instinct."
"Exposition at Portland Is Roally
Pretty." says the New York World in
a thick head line, commencing a two
and a half column Kpcclal article by
Samuel G. Blythe. with a four-column
cut of the Exposition. "The Exposition
officially known As the Lewis and Clark
Exposition was not so named in honor
of J. Ham Lewis and Champ Clark."
writes Mr. Blythe. "Vice-President
Fairbanks, Senators and Representa
tives. Governors of States and many
other dignitaries assembled to add
eclat to the occasion, but the greatest
tribute was paid by John I Sullivan.
"Mr. Sullivan appeared at 9 o'clock in
the morning in his evening clothes and
wore thorn alt day. much to the ad
miration of the multitude and greatly
to the glory and Increment of the show.
There is a rose garden on every lawn
in Portland, and all the roses nodded
today In air as clear as crystal and in
sunshine that glittered. There was a
parade, led by the men who-have made
the Fair, looking very important In
their high hats and with their whit
badges. Evory high hat in Portland
was on duty. .
About the only novelty is the Homer
Davenport farm, where the cartoonist ex
hibits his collection of pheasant, his Ara
bian horses and his other blooded stock.
'This is home for me. said Davenport.
'1 como from Oregon, and I'm going to
show the home folk what I've got.
. . . So far as the buildings are con
cerned they are done, painted and com
plete! in every way. The ground is all
sodded. The streets are all graveled.
The Exposition, from its outside, is fin
ished, and it is the first one that ever
was on an opening day. . . . No
body need come to Portland thinking
he will sec a second SL Louis1 Exposition
or even a second Pan-American Expos l;
tion. What is here to be seen is a good
Fair, a pretty Fair, with a lot of attrac
tions that will interest and Instruct, but
principally what Is te be seen is the Pa

so great that they may stagger imag

HOPE LIES IN DELAY
Postponement of Extra Ses

PRESIDENT REMAINS FIRM
Repented Change in Date Strength

the Rate BUI President
lias No Fears.
OREGON NEWS BUREAU. Washing
ton. June E. While stke President has
made no definite announcement of the
date of the extra, session. It Is now as
sumed that it will be called for the mid
dle of November instead of the middle
of October, as first suggested. Those
most interested in securing & postpone
ment are opposed to railroad rate legisla
tion. They persuaded' the President to
refrain from calling an extra session in
the Spring by pointing out that nothing
could be gained by so doing, as It would
take the Senate committee some months
to take testimony and prepare Its report.
The committee has taken the testimony,
devoting six weeks to hearings. It will
be some time before a report Is ready.
In fact, the committee will not meet un
til Fall to begin Its preparation of a re
port. This delay may hijvc the effect of
preventing legislation. There is little j
aouoi mat mosc wno nave neen striving
to secure delay hope that the country
will not be Insistent upon a law giving
the . commission power to fix railroad
rates. It is their hope that the facts
brought out In the Senate hearings and
by the campaign of education which has
been inaugurated, will cause the public
to have a different opinion when Con
gross finally reaches the legislative stage.
Hope for Defeat by Dcla; .
Some very close friends of the Presi
dent have advised him that the delays
in calling Congress together will be
utilized to defeat the legislation which
he has advocated so strongly. The Pres
ident does not believe that, with three
and a half years ahead of him. the rail
road men In Congress can defeat what
the people seem bound to have. His con
fidence is such that he consented first to
the postponement of the extra session
from Spring until the 1st of October.
Thon he consented to another postpone
ment from the first to the middle of Oc
tober. Now It Is reported that he will
postpone the extra session until the mid
dle of November. That would leave only
two weeks of the extra session and It
might just as well not be called at all.
Nothing can be accomplished before the
holiday recess, and it will mean begin
ning business some time In January.

what they have to show."
In a special report, about two columns
long, the Dallas (Texas) Morning News
attends to news features and concludes:
"In the groat exhibit palaces and state
building hordes of workers tolled to put
the finishing touches on exhibits and dis
plays and they were rewarded with the
satisfaction of knowing that when the
Exposition was declared open it was more
nearly complete than any exposition of
like character ever held in this country.
On the whole the promise of the Expo
sition management that the opening day
would find the Fair complete has been
to aH Intents and purposes kept."
"Fairbanks spoke too long. He de
layed the opening of the Portland Expo
sition 22 minutes," is the heading on a
116 words special news story In the Kan
sas City Times.
A four-column cut of the Exposition
heads a 060-word special news report in
the Detroit (Mich.) Tribune, and in a
neat box these facts are givon: "The
landscape is particularly pleasant, with
water close at hand and snow-capped
mountains almost within roach. Its
unique features include a board walk,
over the water, more than half a mllo In
length, and the "Trail." taking the place
of the Midway Plalsancc and the Pike
of other expositions. Foreign govern
ments participating include England.
Germany, Franco. Russia. China. Japan.

and a half columns news report, with a
a three-column cut of Guild's Lake and
the Government buildings; and the same
space Is given by the Chicago Daily
Tribune, with three pictures.

the opponents of rate legislation ought
to be able to "stand off" a bill until It
was time to adjourn for the Congressional
campaign. If It goes over that far. then
It can be defeated easily in the short
session. Of course, the President would
still have two years and could call an
extra session Immediately after the ex
piration of the Fifty-ninth Congress, but
the Idea of those who see defeat for the
rate legislation Is that, having secured
postponements sufficient to destroy the
effect of an extra session at this time,
they will be able to take care of the fu
ture. There was a time when the opponents
of rate legislation thought the President 1
was "weakening." 'but recent declarations
have corrected that Impression. The

It is only a question of whether he has
been wise in postponing the session at the
request of those who are so vitally In

has been advocating. But the President
has a .way of winning, even when op
posed by powerful Interests.

THEIR STRIKE.
Meeting Tonight "Will Decide Their
Action Strikers Prepare to
Stand Long Siege.
CHICAGO. June 5. The teamsters
strike has reached the point where its
further progress and its further in
crease is dependent upon the action
takon by tho "members of the Chicago
Teamowners Association. This organi
zation has from the. first decliqed to
make deliveries to the boycotted houses
anJ has constantly urged the teamsters
to arbitrate the question of making
such dellvlries. The teamsters have
positively refused to deliver or receive
goods and now, the last chance of se
curing any concessions from tho team
sters having faded away, the .members
of the Teamowners Associaton must
either decide to deliver goods or allow
the teamsters to have their own way
In the matter.
Opinion among the members of the
Teamowners Association Is strongly di
vided, and the result may be a split
in its ranks. A meeting of the organi
zation wli be held tomorrow night and
the action taken at that time will
largely determine the future scope of
the strike. If the Teamowners Associa
tion decides to make deliveries and
discharge all of Its men who refuse to
obey orders, the ranks of the strikers
will be increased by about S000 men.
The teamsters today planned to con
tinue tnc fight. President Shea de

Seattle Authorities Find State Has
Made a law.
SEATTLE. Wash., June S. (Special.)
City Attorney De Bruler decided this
morning that the City of .Seattle has lost
Its authority to regulate automobile own
ers. The state law that ha? gone Into,
effect fixes a. ped limit of, 12 miles jer
hour In thickly-settled communities and
21 miles per hour in sparsely settled dis
tricts. Under the city ordinance that has pre
vailed In the past the automobile drivers
were licensed. Now this fund goes Into
the state coffers1, for each motor owner
must pay $2 annually for a state license.
The city limited the speed to eight miles
an hour, while the state law grants a
50 per cent Increase.
Ajj a result of the new Jaw the city to
day refused to take up several complaints
that were made, and It Is doubted whether
the class of objections raised would be
sustained under the state law.
