WHAT IS REAL ISSUE?
Mr. Cohvcll Exposes Effort to De
ceive the Public.
PORTLAND. Or., April 4. (To the
Editor.) The Oregon Daily Journal Is
making- frantic efforts to cloud the real
issue at the next election by attacking-
all candidates who have not
signed statement No. 1, myself in
cluded. Tne corporations who own the Jour
nal are not interested in statement 1,
but they are interested in distracting
public attention. They do not want the
question of cheaper g-as or of public
utility franchises agitated. It is im
possible to create two agitations at
one time and with great cunning- the
Ladd interests started to create a cla
mor for statement 1 many months ago.
The Journal is merely listening- to its
master's voice.
L think it is time the public and the
laboring- men woke up. The Journal has
attacked my record in the last Legis
lature, but if voting- for the passage of
every labor measure that was present
ed Is an unfaorable record. I am sat
isfied to quit. If I am re-elected I
will not change. Does anybody know
how the new candidates will stand on
labor questions? Should not the wage
earner stand by those who have stood
by him?
I was the first candidate to call at
tention to the double deal which Mr.
Ladd and the corporations have fixed
up for the people, and if the public
awakens to this fact, all my purpose is
served.
Has any candidate, for Instance, ex
cept myself, promised to vote for a
law whlcn will prevent Portland street
car companies from exacting a deposit
of 525 in cash from every employe
when he enters "their service, and placing-
the total of $25,000 or more thus
obtained to the company's credit in
the bank and paying- their employes
no interest whatever on this money ex
torted from the laboringmen? Did
any candidate declare for SS-cent gas
and control of public utility franchises
before I did?
The question of whether I gx to the
Legislature or not is a minor one. The
question of whether a man signs state
ment 1 or signs statement 2 Is a minor
one. but the question of whether the
corporations shall dominate the next
Legislature Is not a minor one. al
though the Journal, masquerading- as
usual as the "friend of the people, is
making- violent endeavors to befog- the
issue,
I shall be satisfied If I succeed in
demonstrating- the cunning: of the cor
porations and the hypocrisy of the,

MOVING DAY AT THE MARQUAM
GHOSTS OF BYGONE DAYS ARE AROUSED BY THE
CHANGE FROM THE FORSAKEN PLAYHOUSE TO NEW
YESTERDAY was moving-day at the
Marqunm Grand Theater.
The last Klaw & Erlangcr trunk
has slid down the runway of the famous
alley.
The last load of trust scenery has mean
dered down Alder street in the dead of
night.
A padlock is on the stage door, and the
lobby at the front of the house murmurs
in darkness of myriad glorious throngs
that have passed in and out of those elo
quent portals. Inside the theater, spec
ters float around and about ghosts of
past events in mournful contemplation
flashing their diaphanous entities on tho
faint glint? of shimmering light that peep
in from the upper shutters.
The stage rests stark and almost naked.
Tony Bianchl. the bill man, has not yet
taken away his kit. so underneath the
stage In the gaudy caverns of bill-postcr-dom.
Tony still muses on things that arc
past, and Is loth to desert the working
home he has loved for years. Mr. Hcilig
stood on the platform and read the In
scription that has long done duty at the
stage entrance keeping away curiosity
mongers and Johnnies:. "Don't hang
around here. This is a place of business,
and if you have no business, GET OUT.
Beware of the dog." Butch clasped the
padlock. Mike, the theater dog, growled,
and the three departing citizens of the
Marquam strode solemnly down the cleats
of the incline to the sidewalk.
Calvin Hcilig controls the bookings of
the shows guided by the largest theatri
cal syndicate in the world. He has moved
up to his new house, corner of Washing
ton and Fourteenth streets; and, although
people refuse to believe that the Mar
quam is closed permanently as a theater,
it certainly will not contain any more of
tho big troupes that travel the circuits
marked out by Klaw & Erlangcr. There
is nothing booked for the Marquam after
the Varde lecture course. And unless
some one of the many rumors prove to
have a solid foundation, the Marquam
will pass out of the theatrical world for
good and all next Wednesday night.
There is much to say when a long-lived,
high-grade house of amusement like the
Marquam gives up its life, and the men
who have worked and struggled and
tolled and worried for years to promote
its destiny bid it good-by forever. LJn
gerlngiy they look at the familiar walls
of the structure. Tenderly they enter the
precincts where they have known many a
hard and many a good hour. In their
mind's eye recur the hundreds of thou
ands of S o'clocks, when the crowd
poured Into the house, when the lights
were burning brightly, and the gaily
appareled audience rushed in to see and
bear and be charmed by the actor's art,
by music, by spectacle, by humor, trag
edy, by whatever piece was put upon the
boards. The box-office man likes his cosy
den. where he has wailed at a small
statement and rejoiced to bring the man
ager a record of a big evening's receipts.

Patrolman Scott was notified of the

had reformed the first of the year and
had kept his vow never again to drink.
Judge Cameron fined Kelly $5.
K Reed cannot live with his wife,
because they cannot agree, but he sus
tains friendly relations with his
mother-in-law, as Is shown by the fact
that when he was arrested on a
charge of vagrancy his mother-in-law
produced 525 cash bail to keep him
from going to Jail.
"He may be a vagrant." remarked
Deputy City Attorney Fitzgerald,
"but he's a mighty diplomatic man if
he can keep on the good side of his
mother-in-law. after being separated
from his wife."
The case came up for hearing Mon-

Is the roost trying and cantankerous ob

at the heels is the most pitiable fact
the pitiless pace of life permits ever to
happen. Even in the apparently least
important occurrences about the behind-the-scenes
circumstance of a theater tho
sympathetic and observant person will
note things that touch the heart and tell
volumes. One rainy night I saw a chorus
girl burst out of the xtase door at the
Marquam to hurry to catch a late train.
She slipped and fell down the whole
length of that runway. She cried bitter
ly. That was the last straw in her cup
of misery- She was a hard-working little
girl, almost broke, for rtie ent most of
her earnings home to her mother, and
she had received word that her brother
had died that day. The performance that
night seemed to be askew. Nothing went
right with her. and she had to gulp down
her sorrow also. To cap the climax, that
fall down the runway, as she was going
away, let loose the floodgates of her
tears. Life seemed almost too hard to
bear that night to that pJor little girl.
Now, who knew out in frost, among the
mass of bejeweled people of the audience,
the tragedy that was going on in that
little actress aching heart? For your
amusement, and for mine, and for the
delectation of the public, these actor-folk
must work and travel and endure pain.
And the sweetest reward they get is your
approval when you deign to clap your

STANDS BY HIS CIRCULAR
Richard McCann Appeals to Records
of Stiprcme Court.
fhe Oregonlan of Monday. April pub
lished a letter from Edward Newbegin to
H. M. Cake to which in all fairness I
am entitled to reply. I reiterate:
First That H. M. Cake on February 27
appealed to the Chamber of Commerce to
hare that body disavow any connectioa
with the charges made by Richard Mc
Cann. calling public attention to the at
tempt of H. M. Cake to use commercial
organizations in aid of his candidacy for
United States Senator.
Second That J. Couch Flanders and
Edward Newbegln Jointly indicted a let
ter to II. M. Cake, declaring that the
Chamber of Commerce was nonpartisan:
that that letter was suppressed without
th knowledge or consent of J. Couch
Flanders, and the following letter seat
to the papers throughout the state:
H. Si. Cake: Referring to the circular
which Mr. Richard McCana bu eat to varices
commercial orxaalxatfos tn the State of
Ortsoa la refereae to your candidacy for tho
TJaliM Sutra Sesate. I would tiy that Mr.
McCann Is not as officer or a member of the
Chamber of Cosuserce. aad that bis acts In
the premises 'are as an tdlrlical. and ate U
so respect the acts of the Chamber of Com
merce. (Signed) EDWARD XEWBEQIN.
Third That H. M. Cake by the use of
the above letter proves at the charge
made by Richard McCann was true: else
why reject the letter signed by Mr. J.
Couch Flanders and shown to mc by Mr.
Flanders and Edward Newbegin before
Newbegln carried it Into H. M. Cake's
office?
Four Edward Newbegin knows that for
the second time H. M. Cake appealed to
the Chamber of Commerce against me on
March 26 last, and that Newbegin and
other trustees ordered my contract with
the Chamber of Commerce revoked, and
this without giving mc a hearing.
Five That, although H. M. Cake de
clares himself "absolutely opposed to
trusts," the court records prove his con
nection with the Standard .Oil Company,
the father of all trusts. Volume 3S, page
Si?, of the Oregon Supreme Court reports
sets forth that H. M. Cake appeared and
made oral argument for the Standard Olf
Company in an action to recover dam
ages for injuries resulting in the death of
Perry Watkins.
I appeal to J. Couch Flanders against
Edward Newbegin and to the state re
ports against H. M. Cake. Truly yours.

new entrance has been opened to the
gallery, allowing the people to enter at
the lower tier of seats on the Burns! de
street corner of the building. This is a
decided alteration for the good of the
theater, for heretofore the people had to
climb up to the top of the building before
they could get into tho gallery. The
gallery seala are among the best in the
house for a musical entertainment. You
can hear perfectly up there, and there is
not a seat hidden from the stage.
I went about the stage and saw many
ghosts. At that switchboard stood Fenny.
Up those few stairs at the prompt side
AVill Bernard looked out of his dressing
room. I callcd across to the upper dressing-room
on the O. P. side and told
Donald Bowles and Fred Sumner to step
down a moment, as I wasted to see them.
Behind my back, as I stood there near the
large street doors of the stage, I noticed
that shades of Miss Allen and Miss
Adams stood there lamenting that their
dressing-room had been ruthlessly torn
away. I stalked over to the wings and
peered into the three-comered leading
man's room there were Edgar Baume.

the spot where the first, dressing-room
yawned. Spiritual and misty waved the
ghosts of Cathrine Countiss, Lucia Moore.
Lillian Lawrence; and in the adjoining

the place was peopled with wraiths. In

me over to the stock-room and I saw
that he was displeased that they had left
some props from "Naughty Anthony"
piled on top of a gilt table from "The
Holy City." What sacrilege! George
Berry! gave me a clammy hand as I
passed up the other side: Roy Bernard
was lying on a couch In the large room
at the end by the stairs aad Dot was
there, too. Both smiled and said: "Seems
natural to see ye-" I fled up the stairs
and out into the light of the street.
Great heavens, the memories arousa a

has anything to do -with a theater can
never live without It again. No wonder

"It's Very Sensitive"
Of course. It Is! That's why every
touch upon the tooth must be made by a
trained hand that doesn't hit the tender
spots and cause you needless pain. All
these little considerations enter into our
kind of painless dentistry.

Just A-Word About
BAY STATE PAINTS
By people who know quite a bit about
paint to people who Intend using it. All
paint that has a good color and shines
when first applied Is not necessarily a
first-class article. It's best and safest
to deal with merchants upon whose
word you can rely as to durability and
other good qualities. That's Just the
reason we Invite you to buy what
paint you need, from us.
