Dr. Withycombe Received With
Enthusiasm at Baker City.
PARADE BY TORCHLIGHT
Speaks to Great Audience at Elks'
i. Temple Deals Plainly With the
Campaign Issues Against
False Economy.
s BAKER CITY. Or., May 18. (Special.)
Amid cheers of a multitude of followers,
James Withycombe, Oregon's next Gov
ernor, rode through the streets of Baker
C'tty this evening In state. Music by the
tVhlte Swan Band, 'the flare of torches,
the glow of red fire and thousands of
Roman candles added brilliancy . to the
scene. The procession was headed by
mounted marshals, followed by the band.
Following the band were carriages. In
Which were Dr. Withycombe, the mem
bers of his party and some prominent
Republicans who were present to attend
the rally. The procession wound through
the principal streets of the city, ending
its march at the Elks' Temple. Dr.
Withycombe made the principal address
of the evening. He was introduced by
Mayor Johns as the next Governor of the
State of Oregon.
Speaks for a Greater Oregon.
Dr. Withycombe arose amid a great au
dience's thunderous applause, which did
not subside for many minutes. He opened
his address by expressing his surprise at
the remarkable development of Baker
City and Baker County In the last few
years. He then passed to the subject of
the united effort being made In all sec
tions of the state for a greater Oregon.
Taking up the matter of a higher stand
ard of citizenship to be reached through
education and the public example of of
ficials leading a clean and honest life in
all respects, he spoke most convincingly.
He also touched upon the matter of taxa
tion of intangible property and advocated
strict Justice to all concerned.
; In his address Dr. Withycombe paid a
high tribute to the members of the Grand
Army of the Republic. The hardy pio
neers of Oregon also were remembered.
The speaker said Oregon's appreciation
cannot be too high of the worthy men
and women who crossed the plains, en
during hardships and privations beyond
description to give the Union one of its
finest commonwealths.
Dr. Withycombe stated that he believed
in a broad and liberal policy of state gov
ernment, economical at the proper points
and not practicing false economy detri
mental to the good of the state, especially
In the matter of waterways, which he be
lieved should be developed to such an ex
tent that they would create competition
with rail transportation, thereby reducing
freight rates.
Indorses New Primary Law.
That the primary law is a success was
the opinion expressed by Dr. Withycombe,
who said that, although it 'will probably
prove necessary to make some modlflca-,
tions in the law as it now stands, the
idea Is right, and tends to true govern
ment by the people.
Omnibus bills and riders were uncom
promisingly condemned. He said that he
was opposed to any appropriation which
could not stand on Its own merits. Each
appropriation should be separate and defi
nite. He also expressed his belief In the
power of the veto by the people, as well
as that vested In the Governor.
Following the speech of Dr. Withy
combe, H. M. Cake, late candidate for the
Republican nomination as United States
Senator, and Willis S. Dunlway, candi
date for State Printer, were Introduced
by Mayor Johns and delivered brief but
convincing speeches.
'. Addresses Overflow Meeting.
On account of the Immense crowd many
people were forced to remain outside of
Elks' Temple. These were addressed by
Willis 9. Dunlway, who delivered one of
the most brilliant speeches In the political
history of Eastern Oregon. Mr. Dunlway
summed up the qualifications of all the
candidates on the Republican state ticket,
giving a brief biography of each In turn.
ills subject was one of the greatest in
terest, and he was forced to repeat the
address inside the hall later in the even
ing. ' LET HANDS DOWN EASY.
31 til Lawyers Refuse to Interrogate
Harrlman Attorney.
VANCOUVER. Wash., May 18. (Spe
cial.) After spending one day In court
before Judge W. W. MCCredle, at Steven
son, Skamania County, the attorneys for
the Portland & Seattle Railway Company
and the Columbia Valley Railway stipu
lated to finish the trial of the right-of-way
case referring to Skamania County
In the Superior Court at Vancouver. Ac
cordingly the trial, which was postponed
last Saturday, was again taken up this
morning before Judge McCre.tile here.
Counsel for the Columbia Valley Com
pany made a formal application for re
moval of the case from this court to the
United States District Court, stating that,
since part of the land which the petition
ers wished to condemn was the property
of L Gerlinger, and he. was a resident
f Oregon, the case .was properly under
Federal Jurisdiction.
Considerable time was taken in an ar
gument of this matter, which waa taken
under advisement.
Upon further stipulation of the attor
neys for the companies. It was decided to
take the evidence in the matter, the
same to he made of record, and have the
same weight as If tt were offered after
the decision of the court on the removal
of the cause to the United States Court.
The Portland & Seattle put but two
witnesses on the stand James B.. Kerr,
assistant secretary for the company, and
N D. Miller, the chief engineer. The tes
timony of these witnesses was regarding
the financial backing of the company and
the surveys it had made.
Among the witnesses called by the Co
lumbia Valley Railway Company was At
torney E. M, Rands, who had been kept
upon the stand during the previous ses
sion for about two days. Upon taking the
stand, he was asked by Attorney George
W. Stapleton. "What Is your name?" "B.
M. Rands," he answered. "That's all,"
said Mr. Stapleton. "No cross-examination,"
said Attorney James B. Kerr, and
Mr. Rands left the stand.
There was a ripple of laughter, which
served somewhat to break the monotony
of the case.
The spectators were expecting some
startling evidence, inasmuch as Mr.
Rands was once cited for contempt in re
fusing to testify.
MADMAN BITHNS ROUNDHOUSE
Destroys $10,000 Worth of Railroad
Property In California.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., May 18. Ten
thousand dollars' worth of Southern
Pacific property was destroyed by a
supposed lunatic named Hancock near
Indlo, San Bernardino County, last
night. He smashed and burned every
thing that lay In his path until he
was finally captured.
At Edom there wag nobody in the
roundhouse to Interrupt his work of
destruction, and he set fire to the
building. It was destroyed and the
flames spread to two boxcars on a sid
ing, burning them, thence to the tele
graph poles. When the poles fell all
the railroad wires on that division
were broken. Hancock smashed scores
of switch lights before he wa captured.
PLAN'S FOR NEW DORMITORY
Pacific University Structure Will Be
Modern Throughout.
PACIFIC UNIVERSITY. Forest Grove.
Or., May 18. (Special.) The plans for
the young women's dormitory to replace
Herrlck Hall, which was destroyed by
fire last March, are nearlng completion.
Whidden & Lewis, the architects, ex
pect to have blueprints in a day or two,
when final corrections will be made by
the committee in charge. The building,
which will be modern throughout, will
be one story less in height than the
former dormitory, but will have a great
er ground area. ' It will have a good
frontage, both to the south and to the
west, so that it will appear to advantage
on the sightly portion of the campus it
is to occupy.
The first floor is to contain the reception-rooms,
dinlng-hall, art and music
rooms, and quarters for the matron. The
second and third floors are for students'
rooms, exclusively.
Building Is to be started before com
mencement, and the dormitory will be
ready for occupancy when school opens
next September.
WILL REBUILD THE FOUNDRY
Centralia Company's Loss Not So
Heavy as Reported.
CENTRALIA. Wrash., May 18. (Special.)
J. P. Symons, of the J. P. Symons Com
pany, whose foundry at Centralia burned
last Saturday, has already had plans made
for the erection of a new building. The
old building was a light frame structure
and did not cause enough heat to injure
the heavy machinery much, so the loss
will be much less than at first thought.
As the foundry building is in the recent
ly established Are limits, the new building
will be of brick. The foundry was work
ing overtime, when it burned, and Mr. Sy
mons will use every endeavor to get to
work as soon as possible to get orders out.
He expects to be casting within another
week.
It is estimated that the total damage to
the plant will not go over J24.O0O. The
patterns lost were valued at 19000. and the
general damage at 115,000. The loss was
partially covered by insurance.
LUMBER WILL GO HIGHER.
Sound Shippers Plan $1 Increase
on Export Cargoes.
SEATTLE. Wash., May IS. At a meet
ing of lumbermen of Puget Sound inter
ested in the export trade, the consensus
of opinion expressed was that the price
of export cargo lumber should be raised
$1 per thousand. No final action can be
taken without a vote by members of the
association in San Francisco, as the ex
port trade of the Sound- is controlled
through that city.
This will be done during the next week.
Chamberlain at Prairie City.
PRAIRIE CITY. Or.. May 18. (Special.)
Governor Chamberlain addressed a large
audience at the church in this city Tues
day night. Representatives of various po
litical faiths and factions were present.
The brass band met the Governor on his
arrival. He presented his usual argu
ments for re-election.
Will Work for Seattle Canal.
SEATTLE. Wash.. May 18. (Special.)
Ex-Governor John H. McGraw, president
of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, and
James A. Moore left tonight for Wash
ington, D. C to urge the Government to
permit the proposed, l.ake Washington Ca
nal to be constructed by private capital
on a modified plan.
What the State
All Republican Measures.
Lebanon Criterion.
Governor Chamberlain claimed in his
speech here that he forced the Legisla
ture to enact the "fellow-servant" law.
This he claims he did by threatening to
veto every law passed. The fact, as
shown by the records, is that that law was
Introduced iri the House as "House bill
No. 74" early in the session of 1903 by
Representative Hansbrough, -a Republican
from Douglas County, a Republican coun
ty. The bill was prepared before the Leg
islature waa convened and before Mr.
Chamberlain was inaugurated Governor,
it was championed by Republicans,
passed by a Republican Legislature, and
Chamberlain had Just about as much to
do with it as the man in the moon, and
no more. So much for that claim.
Another claim he made In his speech
here was the credit of recommending and
causing the enactment of the "inheri
tance tax law." This bill was also en
acted by the Legislature of 1903. It was
lntrodiuced in, the House and was known
as "House bill No. 41." It was also in
troduced and championed by a Republi
can, Mr. Malarkey, of Multnomah County.
This bill, like the other one, waa
among; those early Introduced and was
prepared before Chamberlain was In
augurated Governor and before he made
any recommendation, and waa cham
pioned by Kepubllcana and passed by
Republicans.
The other bill he claims so much credi
for causing the enactment of was the
"corporation license law." This bill was
introduced in 'the House on the first day
of the session of 1903 by Mr. Eddy, a Re
publican of Tillamook County, and was
known as "House bill No. 2." Mr. Eddy
had put in months preparing this bill be
fore the Legislature met and before Mr.
Chamberlain was Governor. And he
had absolutely nothing; to do with lt
enactment or preparation and la en
titled to no credit (or It becoming a
law. These matters are the records of
the Legislature, and not what we say
about the subject, and may be found in
the Journals of those bodies.
Another thing which might be men
tioned is that all these laws were recom
mended by a Republican State Convention
before Chamberlain was even nominated
for Governor. So it may be easily seen
that these are not Democratic measures
at all, but were recommended by a State
Republican Convention, prepared by Re
publicans, introduced by Republicans,
championed by Republicans and enacted
into law by an overwhelming Repub
lican Legislature, and are therefore in all
reason Republican measures; yet In the
face of such a record and this array of
facts. Chamberlain stands up before the
people and says he caused the enactment
of all these laws.
Claiming; Everything.
Ashland Tidings.
Governor Chamberlain is claiming credit
for Oregon's corporation and Inheritance
tax laws now, which bring large sums
Into the State Treasury. "George" drew
them up and passed them, and is collect
ing the cash on them every day. Verily,
what would the Legislature and the rest
of the state government count for, any
way, if it wasn't for "George"?

LARGE AUDIENCE.

Firm for Chinese Exclusion.
MED FORD, Or.. May 18. (Special.)
Walter C. Hawley was the principal
speaker at the Republican rally here to
night. A large audience gathered to hear
him and was not disappointed. His
speech was a brilliant effort and he held
the attention of the crowd to the end.
After speaking of the principles of the
Republican party and what the Republi
can party stands for, he weYit into details
as to what the Republican party is try
ing to accomplish;
"The tariff," said Mr. Hawley, "is a
good thing, but not a sacred affair that
may not be changed when time proves
that in certain spots it is defective. A
schedule that was right five years ago
may not be fair now, and if that is the
case it should be changed."
He pointed out the great prospective
benefits of the Panama Canal, com
menced under a Republican ' administra
tion, to the Pacific Coast. Good roads
and the benefits conferred by them on
the rural population Is a theme that ap
pealed to the people of this county, and
the speaker proved that he was acquaint
ed with his subject. The need of appro
priations for the Columbia River and for
the reclaiming of Oregon's arid lands was
dwelt upon.
Mr. Hawley showed that the Industrial
trusts are the children of discriminations
in railroad rates and that the railroads
have until now violated the law forbid
ding discriminations with Impunity. Now,
under a Republican administration, a
rate bill has now been passed that will
cure the evil.
America welcomes to this country any
man, or body of men, capable of being
absorbed into the body politic, but when
Oriental coolies come to this land in large
numbers America, in self-protection,
must bar the door. A large Asiatic popu
lation in this country -would destroy the
main source of its wealth: the farmers of
America want :no man who is not capable
of and who does not insist upon owning
himself. Any attempt to establish slavery
or coolie labor will not be tolerated by
the American people. As well cut down
the staff from which ftoatu the Stars and
Strips as open the Nation's doors to an
Influx of Chinese.' "
Mr. Hawley spoke for an hour and a
half, and was frequently interrupted by
applause.
He was followed by E. T. Staples, for
State Senator, who clearly presented his
platform.
FALLS FROM MOVING TRAIN
Boise Druggist Has Strange Experi

BOISE, Idaho, May 18. (Special.) Sid
ney St. John, a Boise druggist, was
brought home last night from La Grande,
Or., after having passed through a
strange experience. He started to Hot
Lake for his health, but in some manner
fell off the train near La Grande. His
daughter, who was on the. train, missed
him in the morning and gave the alarm.
The Elks took up the search for him. but
he was found by a farmer under a bridge
near La Grande. fie had evidently
walked off the train while in a state of
temporary aberration. Though ho had
sustained no serious injuries, he was bad

ed. Only at times is he rational.
He is one of the proprietors of the

Papers Say About the Campaign
James Withycombe, is a citizen of Ben
ton County. This appeals to the local
pride of our people. He will receive many
votes more than the entire Republican
vote, and he should. The several candi
dates on the county ticket are, for their
respective offices, equally entitled to
party support. They are good, honest,
competent ana observing men, ana tne
chosen nominees of the party. Unless
they, too, are' elected. Republicans may
not so easily claim the felicitations of the
whole party within the state.
The Just conclusion of the whole matter
is, support the whole ticket.

Notice the way these wise ones prog

chip in their chime in the Democratic
anthem until the discordant diapason be
comes a tlntinabulation of little bells on
little sheep Jangling with the sonorous
clap-clap of the bell-wether. Boiler plate,
all of it. Some Democratic chair-warmer
around the headquarters gets a hunch
that something has settled on his think
factory, and immediately he proceeds to
put that something into a tangible shape,
boiler plate preferably. His remuneration
is ofttimes glory and ofttlmes a hand
out, but the stuff goes through Just the
same. When it appears in impressions it
la fathered by the chief feather-wearer,
who fathers it until some one comes
along and hits him over the head with a

dropped for another bunch of dope which
has the same origin and appears in the

Sore for Mr. Bourne.
Pendleton Tribune.
That Jonathan . Bourne, Jr., will be
elected United States Senator, in June
is no longer a question. The opposition
that arose against him, inspired by Dem
ocrats' and a very few Republicans, has
disappeared with remarkable speed, and
the only feature of his campaign now is
the size of his majority, which some well
known men place at 20.000.
A Hard-Worked Secretary.
Albany Herald.
If any Democrat deserves recognition
it is Private Secretary Gatens. A bright,
unassuming young man, Mr. Gatens has
during a large part of the present admin
istration conducted the affairs of the
Governor's office. Often the Governor has
been absent, electioneering. making
speeches where it seemed they might
some time bring votes, frequently on
pleasure bent, wherever the poppy-strewn
path led. If what the present adminis
tration claims is in any measure sub
stantiated, the Democratic nomination for
Governor ought to have come to Mr.
Gatens, who has for a long time cheerful
ly performed his own duties and those as
well of his chief.

LETTERS THAT BROUGHT JOY
Brothers Separated in Earthquake

HONOLULU, May 9. (Special Corre
spondence.) Two brothers, who were for
merly living together in San Francisco,
became separated during the earthquake
and fire in that city, and each has written
a third ' brother Irving in this city to the
effect that he had reason to believe that
the other had perished in the catas
trophe. J. A. Lucas, the local member
of the family, had been anxiously await
ing news .from his brothers, and instead
of feeling sorrowful with the receipt of
the letters, as the writers may have ex
pected, he was quite overjoyed to find
that It was all a mistake. The letters
were received at the same time.
The two brothers who had been mourn
ing each other's death are Casiano and
Guiseppi Lucas. The former wrote from
Oak'land under date of April 26 and the
latter wrote from San Francisco under
date of April 21. The letters arrived here
last Saturday with the first mail received
from the mainland since the earthquake.
J. A. Lucas has written to each of the
brothers telling of the other's existence.

A rather warm argument occurred be

pel the Councilman to take his seat after
he had refused to do so at the command
of the Mayor. The controversy took place
after a motion was made to adjourn which
displeased the Mayor because no business
of importance aside from the election had
been taken up. The Mayor gained his
point.

Robert Eakin visited Eugene, his old

has gained deserved standing at the

stands fair to gain the highest Judicial

acquaintance with Mr. Eakin, when he

more time than clients when he was

not but think that he deserves all suc

Where la the Logic of Itf
Astorian.
Why. in the name of all that is regular
and patent and honest, should the twenty
odd thousand of majority Republican
votes in the State of Oregon be swept
aside to make room for the "minority
party" of the state? What conceivable
basis can be laid for such action? Where
is the logic of it?. With a ticket in the
field that simply exhausts the wisdom
and good faith of the people who chose
it to represent them in the official organ
ism, and with absolutely nothing to coun
teract it by way 'of opposition that excels
It at any point, this talk of the proba
ble, or possible success of George E.
Chamberlain in the Gubernatorial race is
idiotic.
Not a Factional Candidate.
Canby Tribune,
Many Clackamas County people are per
sonally acquainted with Dr. Withycombe.
the Republican nominee for Governor. He
held farmers' Institutes here last Fall
and made some very valuable talks on
progressive agriculture. It would have
been a hard task for the Republican party
to have selected a- stronger, cleaner,
broader man than Dr. Withycombe. He
has secured the nomination without tying
himself to any faction or making any
promises. He Is not a factional man, and
his election will mean harmony in the
party and a clean business administration
for Oregon.

MR. REUBEN EMERY.
Mr. Emery, who is nearly eighty-five years old, is as active as a boy, and takes pleasure in performing the most
difficult and fatiguing work on his farm at Caro. Mich. Mrs. Emery, who is seventy-nine years of age, finds Duffy's
invaluable as a tonic stimulant and strength-builder and cheerfully testifies to the great benefit she has derived from
its regular and judicious use. This comely old couple have raised a family of thirteen children, all of them healthy
and sturdy.
The following letter from Mr. Emery is expressive of his deep appreciation:
"I am now nearly eighty-five years old, having been born in Staffordshire, England, August, 1SI1. I have been a
very moderate drinker of intoxicants for the past sixty-four years, and have taken scarcely any medicine but Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey in all tnat time. I have had a doctor only twice in my life, and have always been able to, and even
at present, do all work necessary on my farm at Caro, Tuscola Co., Mich.
"My wife, Mrs. Sarah Emery, has also been benefited by the use of Duffy'a Pure Malt Whiskey. She is now seventy
nine years old.
"Some yearn ago when Mrs. Emery Was run down, our family doctor, Clark, of Caro. Mich., ecommended Duffy's,
and after taking It for a short time she was restored to perfect health.
"We both highly rt-commended the use of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey for every one, young and old, on account of
its wonderful rejuvenating and strength-building qualities and will cheerfully answer all letters of inquiry. We are
at present staying with our daughtor, Mrs. Kresln. but will return to our own farm at Caro, Mich., in the Spring.

At the special meeting of the Council
called for this evening to consider the
final steps necessary to be taken, a sur
prise was sprung by City Attorney John
MeCourt, who had been investigating the
matter and who stated that, on account of
certain errors in the publication of the
resolution of the Council the property
owners could legally refuse to pay their
assessments and therefore throw the
whole cost of the improvement upon the
city.
In the original publication no provision
had been directly made for a drainage
sewer, and other specifications were not
definite. It was therefore ordered by the
Council that the City Attorney prepare
specifications, plans and new resolutions
in time for the next regular meeting of
the Council, when republication will be
ordered.
All this will take at least another
month.

A Change
When Coffee
Is Left Off.
It is almost as hard for an old coffee
toper to quit the use of coffee as it is for
a whiskey or tobacco fiend to break off,
except that the coffee user can quit coffee
and take up Postum Food Coffee without
any feeling of a loss of the morning bev
erage, for when Postum is well boiled
and served with cream, it is really better
in point of flavor than most of the coffee
served nowadays, and to the taste of the
connoisseur it is like the flavor of fine
Java.
A great transformation takes place in
the body within ten days or two weeks
after coffee is left off and Postum Food
Coffee used, for the reason that the pois
on to the nerves has been discontinued,
and in its place is taken a liquid that
contains the most powerful elements of
nourishment.
It is easy to make this test and prove
these statements by changing from coffee
to Po3ttim Food Coffee.
