SMASHES THE RING
Pittsburg Elects City Party
Man tor Mayor.
ALLEGHENY IS REPUBLICAN
Charges of Fraud and Many -Arrests
Mark '""Bitter Campaign Alle
gheny Women Pray in Vain
for Good Government.
PITTSBURG, Pa., Feb. 20. After one
of the most bitterly fought campaigns,
with, the greatest vote which was " ever
cast in this city, George "W. Guthrie
Mayoralty candidate" of the City party,
the Democratic party and the Civic
League, defeated his Republican oppon
ent, Alexander M. Jenklnson, by a ma
jority of 6000. Guthrie has a majority
of 4000 in 230 districts out of 2S7.
In 1903 Mayor Hayes, the present Re
publican incumbent, received a majority
of 7371. Since that time three new wards
have been added to the city.
The campaign throughout has been one
of vituperation and recrimination, and
charges of crookedness emanated from
both sides almost hourly. "Wholesale ar
rests were Nmade during -the last days of
the campaign for repeating and coloniz
ing, lodging-houses were raided and men
carrying illegal tax receipts were hustled
to the police station. The day was char
acterized by many fights at polling places
and In two districts the election boards
were baled Into court, charged with re
fusing to allow negroes to vote.
George B. Logan, the candidate for
Mayor of the Good "Government party. In
Allegheny, Pa., was defeated, by Charles
KJrschner, Republican.
The feature of the campaign In Alle
gheny was the part taken In it by wom
en. Throughout the entire day they held
meetings of prayer for the election of
Logan and carried sandwiches and coffee
to the workers at the polls, while brass
bands played patriotic and popular airs
in the neighborhood of the polling places.
ItEFOIUIERS SPLIT AND LOSE
Philadelphia Election Shows That
Tidal Wave Is Receding.
PHILADELPHIA, rFeb. 20. The
Spring municipal elections were held
today throughout Pennsylvania. Ideal
weather prevailed and a heavy votq
was cast in many localities.
Philadelphia elected two magistrates,
17 Select and 12 Common Councllmen,
12 School Directors In each of the 43
wards, Constables and division election
officers. Outttde of seven snail dis
turbances in wards where there were
spirited contests, there was very little
disorder. There were, however, nu
merous arrests for illegal voting.
Great interest was taken in the elec
tion of Councllmen, notably in the Sec
ond and Fifteenth Wards. Party lines
were wiped out In many instances. In
some of the wards the city party and
Lincoln Organization party, which
swept the city last November, were
split and were fighting each other, with
the help of factions from the old Re
publicans. In the Second "Ward Harry
C Ransiey. President of the Select
Council, who -was opposed' Xo Mayor
Weaver, in the gas lease fight, wis a
candidate for re-election on the Re
tublican and Democratic tickets and
lie defeated by a small majority P. J,
Devitt, the city party and Lincoln party
candidate.
In the Fifteenth Ward Alexander
Crow, Jr., a member of the Select
Council," who was one of the Mayor's
strongest supporters in the recent po
lltical war, went down to defeat for
re-election before W. S. Mclnncs,
the candidate for the Democratic, Lin
coin and Liberty parties. Mr. Crow
was backed by a portion of the City
party and a faction within the Repub
lican party.
A feature of the election was the
candidacy of 50 women in various
wards for the position of District
School Director. Nearly all the women
were on the reform tickets, and a large
percentage of them were elected.

The Coin Life & Trust Company
Is duly organized under the insurance laws of the State of Oregon
with a fully paid cash capital of one hundred thousand dollars. It
furnisbes life insurance in its simplest and cheapest form, and if
desired investment bonds for endowing the insurance.
EXAMPLE AGE 29. -
$10,000 of pure life insurance costs Annually $120.00
An endowment bond maturing; in ten years for
$3000 costs annually....... . ..$240.00
Total annual cost $360.00
The above bond guarantees the payment of $3000 at the end of
ten years, and in addition thereto a share of the surplus earnings.
The -whole amount can be "withdrawn if desired. If allowed to remain,
howevef, a paid-up bond is issued guaranteeing 4 per cent interest
annually. At the end of the first year- the $120 interest derived
from the bond -pays the insurance premium, and continues to do so
thereafter. Thus giving the insured the equivalent of $13,000 fully
paid insurance, for both insurance and bond arc paid in event of
death. The bond and insurance are issued separately and where both
are carried as in the above example, either can be surrendered without
affecting the standing of the othcfT
The combination of insurance policy and endowment bond for
providing paid-up insurance at tbV end of 10 or 20 -years' has many
advantages over the old system of carrying insurance and investment
nnder one contract. The public is invited to make the fullest investi
gation of our policies and bonds.

French delegates to carry the case be
fore the open conference shows that
the withdrawal stage hai not yet been
reached. It is expected that the
strained situation will have the effect
of renewing the alarmist war reports
and of arousing- public apprehension.
PARIS, Feb. 2. Late this afternoon a
semi-official note was issued announcing
the intention of France to discontinue prl-
ate negotiations and to carry the ques
tion of policing Morocco before the Judg

FKAXCE XOT ACHING FOB WAR
Newspapers Boast Germany, but Arc
Not Yet Pugnacious.
PARIS, Feb. 20. Notwithstanding the
renewed strain In Franco-German rela
tions growing out of the Moroccan "ques
tion, public sentiment here remains en
tirely calm. The journals of this city,
including those In the governmental in
terest, bitterly attack Germany's course
lh the Algeclras conference. They agree
that France has reached the limit of her
concessions. However, there is no recur
rence of public excitement over possibili
ties of war. Even the sensational news
papers make no allusion to war. .ua
XJberte alone says:
'While France wants peace, she does
not want the government to show weak
ness before the Inflexible and almost hu
miliating pretensions of Germany."
The comparative steadiness of the
Bourse today also indicates a disposition
to philosophically accept the events at
Algeclras.
France JIas Said Last Word.
ALGECIRAS. Feb. 20. The delegates
to the Moroccan Conference are most
pessimistic over the results .of the ne

to examine further propositions France
may wish to make, but the French
seem not to have any further propo
sitions to present.
which were passed by the second, now
the senior, class. Members of the com
mittee have expressed themselves as
gratified at the action taken by the mid
shipmen In the matter. Representative
Pagett said tonight that the greatest Im
portance was to be attached to this ac
tion, as it was the result of a -voluntary
movement on the part of midshipmen,
not only without threat or hope of favor,
but without even a suggestion having
been made to them. The members of
the committee expect similar action by
the third class.

LIBERIA IS WAKING UP.
Bishop Hartzell's Good Account of
American Negro Colony.
NEW YORK, Feb. 20. The Meth
odist Episcopal missionary bishop for
Africa, Rev. Joseph C. Hartzell. arrived
here today on the steamer Amerlka,
after an absence of two years in
Africa. The bishop will remain sev
eral months In America, working to
secure a number of new missionaries
for his fleld and funds to promote tho
work he has In hand. He is anxious
to establish industrial mission schools
throughout Africa, which he declares
are much needed for the whites as
well as for the black people of that
continent.
Bishon Hartzell has just completed
an extensive tour of "East, West and
Central South Africa, visiting the mis
sions of his church, and reports steady
progress of the mission work at all
the principal centers. He is very hope
ful for the black republic of Liberia,
in which repatriated negroes from
America and their descendants, now
many thousands in number, and s.few
thousand civilized natives, form the
governing class.
"Liberia, which has led hitherto
rather precarious existence," said the
bishop, "is how entering- upon a new
epoch. An English company has been
granted large mining and rubber con
cessions, in return for which the gov
ernmtnt has secured a loan of $590,660.
"With this sum It is Intended to pay the
debts et the republic, to establish
national bank and to open the interior."
Bishop Hartsell said he would not
advocate the wholesale emigration of
negroes from the Southern States.
There are not openings in Liberia for
many settlers, and trade and other
conditions are unfavorable for the re
ception of many emigrants at & time.
