8 TIL3 MORNING OKEGONIAN, MONDAY, 3IAY 21, 1906. DELEGATES OFF FOR COOS BAY Portland and the Valley Will Be Well Represented at the Convention. MANY WITNESS DEPARTURE Lave on Steamer Alliance for North Bend to Attend Fanners' and Shippers' ongres9 and Farmers' Institute. Delegates to the joint convention of the Farmers' and Shipper' Congress and the Coos County Farmers' Institute, which w ill be held at North Bend, May 23 and 24. departed for Coos Bay at 8 o'clock last night, on the steamer Alliance. A large crowd kw the party off at the dock at the foot of Couch street when the Al lionce steamed out into the river. Besides the delegates from Portland, the party consisted of representatives from other Willamette Valley cities. Practical ly every organisation of the Willamette Valley Development League, under the auspices of which the convention will be conducted, was repreaenred. The delega tion from the cities outside of Portland was headed by E. Hofer, president of the Willamette Valley Development Lague. The Portland Delejratlon. Portland sends a particularly represen tative delegation to Coos Bay, but it Is not as large as was at first expected. Many other of the Portland business men made arrangements to make tbu trip, and were extremely anxious to attend the con vention, but were unavoidably detained. Since the San Francisco fire the Portland jobbing houses have been swamped with work, and had- It not been for this, the delegation would have been a very large one. The convention at Coos Bay will be held for the purpose of exploiting that section of the slate, and in this the citizens of North Bend. Marslifleld. Empire and the other prosperous cities of that splendid harhor will receive the hearty co-operation of the Portland delegates. The Coos Bay cities, which were actively represented at the Lewis and Clark Exposition, are eagerly looking forward to the convention, which. It is believed, will be of great bene fit. Several hundred delegates In all will attend the convention, and the citizens if Coos Bay will see that they become In timately acquainted with the wonderful and varied resources of that part of Ore gon. Extensive preparations for the enter tainment of the visitors have been made. All of the cities of Coob Bay have joined hands and will work together to make the convention a great success. The vis itors will be taken on excursions, treated to many different entertainments, and everything possible will be done to make them enjoy their stay. The steamer Alliance, which departed from Portland last night, will arrive at North Bend early Tuesday morning. The convention will be held Wednesday and Thursday, and on Friday morning the Al liance will leave North Bend for Portland. The Portland Commercial Club will be represented by President F. W. Iead belter and the Hoard of Trade by T. E. Armlstead. G. M. Brown was appointed to represent the Board of Trade, but at the last moment he found that he could not possibly make the trip, and Mr. Ar mlstead was appointed to go in his place. They were also appointed by Mayor Iane to represent officially the City of Port land. Personnel of the Party. The other Portlandera who left on the Alliance last night for Coos Bay were: H. U Pittock. C. M. Hyskell, J. B. Da vis. U. F. Bverson. K. Eyssell, J. A. Mc Kinnon, Mrs. Q. M. Brown. H. W. Evans, W. G. MaeRae. George M. Cornwall, W. 1.. Ireland. Arthur P.

Ueadbetter will deliver an ad dress on behalf of the City of Portland at the convention. Other of the dele gates who left on the Alliance will speak. Not until the party arrives at Coos Bay will the complete programme be ar ranged. RIGHT OF APPEAL. Krinarks on a Recent Decision In the t'ntied States Supreme Court, TORTUAND. May 20. tTr th FMltor.) I otserv in a rcnt 1au of The Orironian an article dated from Whlnrton, D. C, under the head, "Cannot 1 Hear Petty Oases: Su preme Court refer Habeas Corpus Suit Back tt Lower Court," and in which Justice Xrewer, of the Supreme Court of the JTnlted State, den if the petition of James Lincoln, who was convicted In the Vnlted States Court for the, District of Nebraska for the crime of Introducing liquor Into the "Winnebago In rilnn Reservation," wherein the defendant was sentenoed to Imprisonment for 60 daya and a fine of $100. This, to my mind, is a 'moat marvelous des ecration of the Inalienable -rights of any Indi vidual rltlsen of the irnlted States tu claim the protection and him privilege of uch, under the Constitution of the Vnlted States as made, adopted and sometimes respected by the judici ary of the country" for the protection of the common people. It appear that the tendency of persons who occupy by favoritism, politics or otherwise, positions upon the bench of the various Fed eral and State Courts, to follow the opinion of others) whom they have succeeded, Irre spective of the motive which have led their predecessors to form a Judgment and write a rerboee opinion of their own feeling in any particular case which may by chance be as e'.rned to them to think over and render Judg ment In. Precedents and the opinion of sev eral men. who have been elevated to Judicial position by appointment through political fa voritism or election, has led to a deification of the judiciary, a higher, better, puree, and more Intelligent than the rvst of mankind, without cause, excuse or apology. If the opinion a reported In The Oregonian cbtains. It opens a breach tn the constitutional wall the sole protection of the common peo ple which. If followed a a precedent, will widen, and in time afford a reason for greater oppression, and ultimately lead to anarchy, civil war or absolute oppression of the Indi vidual rights of the common people, and make their future as dark as the present Russian Wltilcal night.

HOT LUNCHEON FOR TEACHERS Plan of Director Flejschner Meets With Favor on All Sides. WOULD IMPROVE SERVICE Establishment of Rooms in Schools ' With Facilities for Preparing Food Would Cost but Little to the City. It seems to be the consensus of opinion in educational circles that teachers can give belter service to the pupils and to the board by-having the advantage of a hot luncheon at the noon hour than Is possible by the present cold luncheon re gime. The suggestion of a lunchroom In the different public schools of the city. furnished with tables, chairs, cupboards and gas stoves. Is hailed .with delight by the large number of teachers employed In Portland, especially In the outlying districts, where it is quite Impossible to buy a hot luncheon even after walking a long distance for It. In these suburban schools, principals and teachers are com pelled to carry their luncheons, and at noontime they have only the schoolroom In which . they have been working all morning td spend the hour or half hour allotted for luncheon and in which to eat it. Applies to Many Schools. Not only does the condition apply to suburban schools, for it is learned through conversation with the principals and teachers of the schools situated in the most thickly populated districts of the city that, with few exceptions, the teach ers eat cold luncheons In the building, as they live too far away to have time to eat luncheon at home after walking the distance. The Shattuck and Ladd schools are exceptions, especially the former. where two-thirds of those employed as teachers live within walking distance of the school and enjoy a hot meal at noon. Principal Draper, of this school, takes a car down-town, and by riding both ways has time to get a hasty luncheon In a restaurant, but this is both expensive and productive of .bad results from a health standpoint, and he and his teachers ex press themselves as heartily In favor of the srrall conveniences which would en able those remaining In the building to prepare something hot at jioon. "A cup of hot tea or chocolate, a bowl of hot soup or a boiled egg would mean more to us than outsiders can possibly Imagine," said one enthusiastic teacher 'School teaching at Its best Is a vocation that Is very trying on the nerves, and it cannot be disputed that a hot meal goes far toward resting and rejuvenating one who, Is fatigued, and prepares that one for further services In a way that cold food cannot do." The Highland School has taken the sit uation in hand, and the teachers are ar ranging to have a gas stove put In a small room, which Is at their disposal for luncheon purposes. The Installment of such conveniences by the. School Board would be very welcome to them, how ever, as they would be glad to have a place to keep the dishes they bring and comfortable chairs and a table on which to serve their luncheons. Favors Luncheon-Room. Principal J. H. Stanley, of the High land School expresses himself as much impressed by the lunchroom idea, stat ing that it la an excellent one, and that the teachers would not only feel better after a hot noon meal, but would doubt less be able to give better results in their sfternoon work. "Only four out of 22 teachers are able to go home to luncheon here." said Mr. Stanley, "and I believe that if we had comfortable facilities for getting something hot here in the building all of them would remain. At the Clinton Kelly School not a sin gle teacher is enabled to go home at noon, the whole force being compelled to eat the cold food which has -been packed since breakfast time. A programme like this Is rather tiresome when It Is followed out regularly every school day in the week, and there are many complaints of Indigestion as a consequence of . eating cold food of the kind that is convenient to carry. Would Be of Benefit. Principal Morgan says It is the unani mous opinion of his corps of teachers that appliances for preparing a hot luncheon would be of more benefit to them than any measure which could be provided, and that they would be very appreciative of the convenience of a lunchroom. There are 13 teachers In this school. "I wish we could have hot luncheons." said Principal E. J. Hadley, of the Holla day School, "but It is difficult to get them out here unless one resides within walk ing distance. Out of 18 teachers, only seven go home, the other 11 eating here in the building. We make the best of It. of course, and use a small vacant room In which to eat, but If it were fitted -up with the conveniences suggested I think It would be a fine thing for the teachers, for they could then have some thing hot every day and be more com fortable at this recreation hour. They would feel more like working, too." At Brooklyn School ten teachers eat cold luncheons while two live In the neighborhood and are able to go home at noon. Miss Dimlck, the principal, ex presses herself most emphatically In fa vor of the establishment of lUncheon rooms. not only to make the teachers comfortable and preserve their health, but from a business standpoint. "I think I. N. Flelschner, the member of the board who has suggested this measure, should receive the praise and commendation of not only every teacher In town, but of all who send children to school. It stands to reason that better results can be gotten by taking good care of teachers than oth erwise, and the matter should be viewed from a business as well as a humani tarian standpoint. A hot dish at noon would go far toward resting overwrought nerves and tired . muscles, and the Indi vidual teacher would be in much better condition to take up the afternoon work than she is after eating a few soggy sandwiches and drinking cold water." Would Be Ideal Feature. All of the teachers of the Thompson School have to' eat cold luncheons, the principal, O. E. Jamison, being the only one living near enough to go home. "I have had to make It a point to live near my school," said Mr. Jamison, "for I cannot eat cold luncheons and give good service. Indigestion Invariably results from It. and my daughter, who attends the High School, is troubled with it from eating- cold noon meals. I think the luncheon-room would be an Ideal feature for schools, for It would add to the health and comfort of the teachers and keep them from getting nervous. My teachers are always diligent and work hard, but a hot meal might be productive to them of better results than the cold one. and I am sure they would all appreciate It, as I would." Principal Downs, of the Williama-Ave- nua School, was another who spoks of the stomach disorders arising from the constant eating of cold luncheons, mak ing his statements from experience. All of his teachers favor the luncheon-room proposition, and he feels that such a room would serve other purposes as well, there now being no place to take either a pupil or a teacher In case of sudden illness. In this school live go home atnoon, 11 bring cold luncheons and one goes without luncheon rather than eat it cold. All Support Plan. At the Couch, the Atkinson and the High Schools, all situated In the heart of the city, the majority' of the teachers eat cold luncheons. Couch has 20 teachers, and of these 7 go home to luncheon, these living near the building. All favor the luncheon-room, however, considering a retiring place in which to eat and have something warm would be a welcome In novation. At this school a vendor brings hot soup in at noon and sells to the teachers, but the only place they have to eat It is at their desks where they teach all day. Principal Burnham thinks the establishment of a luncheon-room would be productive of good results. Prin cipal Kiggins. of the Atkinson, is also much in favor of such an institution, as he considers cold luncheons bad for any one. Only three of the teachers in this school go home at noon. Professor T. T. Davis, of the High School. Is also a warm advocate of the luncheon-room proposi tion, feeling that the quiet and rest ob tained In a private room, at noon, as well as the advantages of hot meals, would be of greatest benefit' to the teachers. In this school some of the force go out to hot luncheons and some have things brought in to them from near-by deli catessens, but, as In other cases, there Is only the schoolroom in which to eat it,1 and a room which has been occupied by 60 or 70 pupils all morning Is not the most pleasant place in the world in which to eat a meal. Would Cost but Little. The proposed establishment of luncheon rooms for teachers In the public schools of Portland was proposed to the board by I. N. Flelschner, but was not acted upon. The delay was caused by those members who hesitated to expend any of the school money on improvements of this character, and who wanted exact esti mates as to the cost of such proposed additions. The cost will be very small, for in nearly all of the schools there la some small apartment which can toe util ized, or the end of a hall which can be partitioned oft for the purpose, and the equipment would be very light. Tables and chairs would, of course, be necessary, and a small cupboard In which to keep the food brought In the morning and the few dishes which each teacher would pro vide herself with would be all that is nec essary, aside from the installation of a small gas stove. In suburban districts, where there is not gas in the building, a small fuel stove could be utilized. Would Improve the Work. The Improved service which would re sult from this provision for the teachers would soon pay for the expenditure, ac cording to the opinion of those who have studied the matter, and it seems more than probable that another school year will see every schoolhouse In Portland provided with a small lunchroom for the teachers. Mr. Flelschner, of ; course, is strongly in favor of It, and Mr. Beach is also of the opinion that It would be a good measure. If not too expensive. Mrs. Sitton is another warm advocate of the measure, and Superintendent Frank Rlg ler thinks It would result in a great amount of good and Improvement. "The cost would be small," said Mr. Flelschner, "and the results would be beneficial to the teachers and to the serv ice. In my visits to the schools I find the teachers sitting In the schoolroom eating cold luncheons at their desks, and I have been Impressed with the fact that rest and a hot meal at the noon hour would be something that would not only . benefit them, but the pupils and the service at large." SANITARY .CONDITION GOOD Portsmouth and University Park Found In Excellent Shape. PORTLAND, May 20. (To th Editor.) Inasmuch aa there have bean many reports published relative to diphtheria, and the sani tary conditions In University Parle and Ports mouth, and since some of theaa reports have given wrong: impressions concerning- th sani tary conditions as actually existing- tn this section of tna City of Portland, we. ths com mittee appointed by th University Park Board of Trade, respectfully submit the following report: Dr. "Wheeler. City Physician, and his dep uty have within th last two week lnesected 220 homes. In most of these they report the sanitary conditions good. Where open clos ets reach down into the coarse sand and gravel they state that no unsanitary condi tion can exist. AH the cesspools, many of which were found, extend below th surface of the sand in gravel, making them entirely sanitary. In all cases where they found un sanitary conditions existing from any cause they gave definite instructions to the owners mm to how to remedy them; also giving these owners a specified time to make the necessary improvements. Compared with other suburbs of the city. Dr. Wheeler reports this one as good as others In many respects, and 'as to natural drainage, better, owing to the strata of sand and gravel lying only a few feet be low th surface of the around. Further, the members of your committee have personally visited a large majority of the homes of University Park and Portsmouth and we find that with few exceptions tne premises are clean and free from rubbish. and challenge any one from other suburbs of the city to show any cleanlier conditions or better general appearances. -Both the surface drain and th underground drainage are excellent. By unanimous vote of the members present at the meeting when your committee was ap pointed to make this report, the efforts of th City Health Officers In improving th sani tary conditions of this section, together with th efforts put forth for general improvement by the Initiative One Hundred were heartily indorsed.

Funeral services over the remains of Giogcomo Cassenelll. a vegetable gar dener of Portland, who died Saturday at the Good Samaritan Hospital, were held at St. Michael's Church, Fourth and Mill streets, at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The body was buried at the Mount Calvary Cemetery. The funeral procession was one of the longest ever seen in Portland, as the deceased was one of the most pop ular Italians In the city.

REPUBLICANS ARE SURE OF SUCCESS Democratic Blunders and Har mony Among Factions Assure It WITHYCOMBE IS STRONG Instead of Being Disrupted Party Is United and Everyone Is Working for the Entire Party Ticket. That the election of Dr. James Wlthy- combe as Governor Is now practically certain Is the opinion expressed by Re publicans who have been over the state and carefully sounded public sentiment. Soon after the primaries there were manf who were In doubt. They felt some concern as to the attitude of defeated as pirants and their friends. There was a fear that the members of the party would not get together in support of the ticket, but that the direct primary law would prove a means of disrupting the party. This fear has now vanished, until in al most every county past differences have been laid aside, the defeated aspirants have cheerfully volunteered their assist ance to the victors, and there Is good feeling among party workers generally. While this situation Is encouraging to the Republicans, . it Is disheartening to the Democrats, who are lust beginning to realize that they are engaged in an al most hopeless contest. Hoped for Party Discord. In the beginning of the campaign, the Democrats counted largely upon Repub lican discord to bring them votes, but the Democrats themselves have forced the Republicans' into line. Instead of making a fight for one office, as they did four years ago. they have tried to get every thing In sight, and thus attempted to make this a Democratic state. They have deprived their own campaign of that non partisan complexion they wish 'to give it. for when the Republicans see the Demo cratic leaders trying to put Democrats in all the offices, they realize that the talk of non-partisanship is merely a blind. Then, again, whenever the Chamberlain managers try to persuade Republicans to vote for Col. R. A. Miller for Attorney- General, they make Crawf ord s friends out in Southern Oregon sore. When they ask Republican support for I'. Scott Tay lor for State Printer, they Incur the dis pleasure of the friends of W. S. Dunl way. And so It Is up and down the line. In trying to defeat so many good Repub licans, they have forced the Republicans to come together and stand unitedly for tha ticket. Make Unwarranted Attack. Then, too, the unkind and unwarranted attacks the Democratic campaign man agers have made upon the Republican candidate for Governor have made him many friends, not only among Republic- ana, but among Democrats as well. Two prominent Democrats, P. H. D'Arcy, of Salem, and Napoleon Davis, of Greaham, have publicly denounced the methods pur sued, and it is evident that hundreds of Democrats who are not so outspoken In their views entertain the same feelings. Where one man will come out and openly censure his party's managers, there are hundreds who will quietly wait until elec tion day and then record his protest at the ballot box. The Democratic leaders realize the strength of the tide of opinion that is setting against them, but are un able to stop It. for one grave blunder fol lows another In such rapid succession that they are kept continually explaining. Republicans Get Together. At the same time that the Republicans are getting together, the Democrats are showing signs of disunion. Many promi nent Democrats who were shouting for Chamberlain four years ago, and who made large contributions to the campaign fund, are attracting attention by their si lence now. On the other hand. Repub licans who were fighting the ticket open ly four years ago are shouting for it now, and there Is not anywhere In the state an open opposition among Repub licans. These changed conditions foretell the result. Those who examined the election figures of four years ago. as published In yester day's Oregonian, can see where the Re publicans will make enormous gains which Chamberlain cannot possibly coun terbalance. Four years ago Marion Coun ty; where most of the disappointed Geer people lived, gave Chamberlain over 300 plurality. This year there Is the utmost harmony in Marion, and It Is generally said that Marlon will give Wlthycombe about 1000 plurality. All Differences Buried. Marion is a farming county, and Wlthy combe Is popular among that class. Four years ago Benton County, where Withy combe resides, gave Furnish 48 plurality. This year It will give Wlthycombe 600 to 70ft. In Umatilla, which was the hotbed of dissension four years ago. Chamberlain received a plurality of 266. The' leaders are working together in perfect harmony this year, and Wlthycombe is good for a margin of 600. Union County. Instead of giving Chamberlain 700, as it did four years ago, Is lined up for tne ticket, and will give the Republican nominee a lead of about 500. These are heavy counties. and show the trend of sentiment among Republicans. This is a get-together" year and Republicans are burying or have burled past differences, ana win meet on common ground In support of a ticket nominated In. the direct primaries. Stevens Answers Statements. At the Republican rally at Troutdale Saturday evening, R. L. Stevens, Repub lican nominee for Sheriff, took occasion WANT AND NEED.

So far as can be learned at this time, there will be no Independent ticket filed, and no In dependent candidates other than those who have already filed. The only Inde pendents now in the race for county of fices are J. E. Simmons, for Sheriff; W. H. Patterson, for Constable on the West Side, and E. E. Parker and C. H. Brown, for Constable on the East Side. Attorney-General Crawford and Secre tary of State Dunbar held that May 19 was the last day for filing independent nominations for county offices, and that has been generally considered the last day. County Clerk Fields seems to have followed a different plan In computing the time, and .made the 30th the last day. But as the 20th fell on Sunday, he held that an Intending candidate may file at any time on the Monday following. In this Interpretation of the law, Mr. Fields Is supported by the opinion of Judge Sears, who advised him unofficially. Prob ably no complications will arise from the different interpretations of the law, yet litigation might arise if some- person of fered a petition for filing, and It should be accepted or Tefused contrary to the opinion and interests of candidates. In most counties of the state, a petition offered for filing today would be refused. The statute saya that a nomination by Individual electors must be filed not less than 15 days before the day fixed by law for the election. The election will be held June 4, and. counting back, it is WE CURE MEN FOR A LIFE LONG CURE FOR VARICOCELE We cure this dls." without operation or liirature, and under our treatment the congested condition soon disappears, the parts are Testored to their natural condi tion, vigor and strength, and circulation Is r-establlhed.

ST.LOUIS Medical and Surgical COBJlEJl SECOND AND YAMrTTIX PORTLAND J k found that May 20 is the 15th day, but, since the law says not less than 15 days. It waa believed that 15 full days must elapse between the time of filing and the day of election, and, therefore, that the 19t'h Is the last day for filing. County Clerk Fields held that a man Is entitled to file his nominating petition at any time on the 15th day prior to the day of the ' election, and that, since the 15th day falls on Sunday, he may file on the next day. There is. in effect, a difference of two daya In the methods of construing the time. DATES SET FOR CHAMBERLAIN Democratic Committee Announces His Schedule.
