V THE MORNING OREGONTAN, SATURDAY, JTJL.T 28, 1906. PARTY BREAK-UP II COMING YET Differences Grow Less and Old Issues Are Dis appearing. DRAW NEARER ON TARIFF While Republicans Torn to Revision, Southern Industries Seek Pro tection Hearst 'a Labor Party Looms in Future. I OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, July 26. Every once in a while there Is talk among politicians about the impending disintegration of the two great political parties of this country and a new line-up on ' modern or latter-day issues. While there are many indications that such disintegration is in process, the change is not apt to take place before the next Presidential election and it may be deferred many years after that. It Is a fact well recognized by men who observe the trend of events that the Dem ocratic party of today is nearer the Re publican party on a great many issues than it ever was before; that is the regu lar, old-line Democracy, not the radicals of the Hearst type. As tariff revision sentiment continues to grow among Re publicans, so free trade doctrine is being relegated to the rear by Democrats and the two parties are nearing a common ground on this great issue. So rapidly are they getting together that the re vision of the tariff is now looked upon as an accomplishment of the near future. The Democrats, with few exceptions, are not clamoring for free trade; the tariff revision Republicans are favoring a re duction of those Dingley schedules that are responsible for prevailing high prices of the necessities of life, building ma terials, etc. Democrats Want Protection. In the last session of Congress the Phil ippine tariff bill, which would naturally have been regarded as a Democratic measure (In that It proposed to reduce the duties on Philippine products com ing to the United States) was defeated by Democrats who feared that Philippine sugar would compete with sugar grown in their states. - Southern Democrats, who once followed the free trade banner, are now demanding protection for the enorm ous Industries that have been built up in that section under the protective tariff. They are willing that there should be a reduction in some schedules, but not those that protect the Industries of the South. The Philippines, once a very lively issue, have dropped into the backgrounds It seems to be generally understood that, when the islands are capable of self-government, they will be given their free dom, even though that time may not ar rive this century. But the public has lost interest in the islands and the Demo crats now care little about them, even as a campaign, issue. They are1 certainly not as Issue of such importance as to divide the votors into two great parties. ' Bryan and Free Silver. The money question was also considered as- settled up to a few days ago, when William J. Bryan came out with his Lon don interview reviving 16 to 1 and free silver. But for Bryan's declaration, the two parties would today have been vir tually agreed on the money question. .But Bryan Is the disturbing element and his own declaration, considered in the light of his possible nomination for the Presi dency in 1908, seems to make a jreallgn mont of the parties Improbable at this time. If Bryan comes out flat-footed .for free silver, he will awaken' that vast army, or a large part of it, that followed him to defeat in ISM and again in 1900, and the Republican party Will again draw the sound money Democrats, as in those two campaigns. It is not likely that there will be a realignment on the money question, however, for Bryan alone keeps that issue alive, and. If he runs on a silver platform, his third and most overwhelming defeat will probably put a quietus on that Issue for a number of years to come. The money question has been threshed out so many times that It will hardly serve as the cause for a read justment of the parties. Hearst Tries to Break Up Parties. . There is one very active man at work trying to force a break-up of the pres- ent-day parties, who will welcome the opportunity to bring about a new line-up on a new issue William R. Hearst. Hearst is laying deep plans to build up a labor party a radical labor party and he would welcome the opposition of the Republican organization, which he is at tempting to put in the light of being an tagonistic to labor. But Hearst cannot force a division on this issue at this time. While he himself is making all manner of pledges to labor and indulges In one gallery play after another. Presi dent Roosevelt is repeatedly showing his friendliness for labor, and his works are set up against Hearst's promises. As long as Roosevelt is head of the Repub lican party, Hearst will be unable 'to force the labor issue to the front to the extent of making it paramount in a Na tional campaign, for he will And the other side strongly fortified and able to combat his moves. When Roosevelt steps aside and when Bryan has worn himself out, if he Is not elected, Hearst will be ready to spring his labor party, and, when he does, the fun will begin. He is not spending vast sums of money for nothing; he is not working up sentiment for his health. He wants to get to the White House, and he Relieves the only safe way is by or ganizing and leading a labor party. It is Hearst's aim to force an issue be tween capital and labor, and to divide the parties along that line. The over whelming numbers on the side of labor attest his shrewdness. Hearst's Chance In 1910. Hearst has said he will not run for President on the Democratic ticket in 1908, and it is not believed he will at tempt to launch his labor party by that time. Bryan, on the other hand, will likely be the Democratic candidate if he can find enough delegates In the next convention to Indorse his old free-silver ideas. In that event, sound currency will be the issue, as it was in 1S96. and the prosperity the country has experienced since that election will probably Insure an increased majority for the Republi can ticket. If this plan should work out, there would be no disintegration of the parties before 1910, but It may come then. That would be none too early for Hearst if Bryan should be nominated and defeated, for it would give him the double opportunity to say that Bryan was out of it for all time and that the money question was permanently set tled; therefore there should be a new issue. The uncertainty of politics makes al most anything possible, but there Is noth ing on the horizon at this time to indi cate the Immediate disintegration of the Democratic and Republican parties. They both give signs of pulling through , the next campaign in some shape. DAILY CITY STATISTICS. Marriage Licenses. BABB-BOTCB Edward . Lee Babb, The Quelle, 86: Emma Jane Mercer Boyce, 2T.

NEW YORK, July 27. C. F. Reed, cu rator of mediaeval art objects in the British museum, who arrived here yester day from Liverpool, bad this to say re garding spurious works of art that are sometimes foisted upon visitors in Eu rope: "Paris Is full of such things. They are made there by men who make a business of creating such shams and selling them at high prices. These spurious art treas ures are cleverly built and to one not fa miliar with the genuine article they look rather tempting. But at one glance a curator can tell they are frauds. In deed, on the voyage from Liverpool two persons showed me several purchases they had made, and asked my opinion. They insisted on knowing. Painful though it was, I was farced to tell them the ob jects of their purchases were valueless." CAUGHT RUNNING OFF WITH BREWERY WORKMAN'S LUNCH Hungry Stranger Overhauled With Spoils, and Then Jumps Through Window, Giving Pursuers the Slip. DINNER time at the Weinhard brew ery, on Thirteenth street, was turned into an hour of wild excitement yes terday, in which employes of the estab lishment and police joined in a heated chase of a well-dressed young man who stole the lunch of one of the workmen. A few minutes before the time for eat ing had rolled around a stranger was seen to approach a group of lunch pails and select the largest His hunger was evi dently insistent for instead of walking leisurely away with his forage, the young thief broke into a run. This attracted attention and aroused suspicion. The own er of the dinner-pail saw his noon meal vanishing, gave a cry of alarm and struck out in pursuit. Five other workmen joined in the chase. They overtook the culprit who seemed too weak to run fast Es corting Ui captive back to the brewery. DR. SHORT SPENDS AT Shoots the Chutes, Coasts in "Figure Eight" and Then Drinks Root Beer. NOT LOOKING FOR INIQUITY Popular Pastor ol Taylor-Street , Church and His Assistant Take a Night Off and Say . They Enjoy It. Dr. p. Burgette Short went out to The Oaks last night wearing a cap and a pair of bright tan shoes, and some kind and considerate individual, who should have a a reward for his powers of ob servation spread the news that the reverend gentleman was disguised. It was told that Dr. Short was out on an "information gathering expedition," for a "red-hot" sermon about The Oaks for next Sunday night So a reporter proceeded to The Oaks to ferret out the minister of the gospel reputed to be in disguise. The search began at the dance pavilion. Of course if Dr. Short was out for something sen sational about, the first place be would go for would be the dancing pavilion. But no Dr. Short or anyone tall enough even to look like him could be found. Every person who was tall and angular whether old or young was most rig idly scrutinized as it was said that the make-up of Dr. Short was simply unrecognizable-Next to the Tavern.-Surely Dr. Short would be there sitting back in some corner necessarily sipping lemonade so that the waiter would not tell him to "move on," his eagle eye sweeping in every detail of the "horrible sight" of a few thirsty persons consuming quan tities of ice-cold lager. But no, he was not there. In one of the corners of the Tavern was a tall individual with a mustache whose form resembled some what that of the much-sought person. It looked as though a clew had been found but it turned out that the tall man with a dab on his upper lip was someone else. So it went. The skating rink,, the moving pctures performance and all of the other shows were eagerly searched but no Dr. Short appeared upon the horizon. Disgusted and tired the pursuer sat down at last to listen to the band, and as he glanced around he saw Dr. Short sitting comfortably a few feet away. He was literally drinking in the music, little suspecting what excitement he had innocently created .He was accom panied by his assistant, Dr. J. C. Tay lor. He was dressed the same as he often is and there was nothing unusual about his appearance. Dr. Short is not the kind of a minister who wears a frock coat upon all occasions even to a picnic Joe Day or even Old Sleuth him self would have had no trouble in rec ognizing Dr. Short last night "Discovered," he laughed when his eye was caught "Just because a man is a preacher, is that any reason why he should never ven ture out except from his home to his church and back again?" hs asked, after he had answered a fusillade of questions hurled at him in rapid succession. "I am not here looking for deviltry, I tell you," and he gave a vigorous swing of his arms which would have done D'TJrbano credit. "I haven't seen any thing at all that was out of the way, and upon the surface at least The Oaks seems to be a pretty nice sort of place. Maybe if I had a nose like a bloodhound I might be able to find a few persons who had taken on a little more than they could handle with ease, and a few girls who had been squeezed too hard. Now, remember, I said 'might I came out here to listen to the music." Dr. Short invited Dr. Taylor to have a drink of lemonade or root beer. They sought out the soft-drink palace. Root beer was served to them in mugs which looked like the real thing, but Dr. Short was careful to bring his nostrils into play in case some one was playing a practical joke on him and had filled the mug with the "genuine." But he soon waded right into the foam and was perfectly at home. Some of the members of hie nock passed by and were horrified to see a huge stein sprawled out in front of their pastor. "It's all right" he called out to them. "It's only root beer," at the same time pointing to the large sign which bore the inscription 'Soft-Drink Palace." Of course it was all done in a joke, and those who saw Dr. Short in the "gilded palace" of lemonade and root beer, fame knew that lie was "not guilty." Dr. Short did the figure 8, shot the chutes and walked the whole length of the avenue. He certainly did enjoy him self, and made ,no effort whatever to hide his identity. "I believe in people and ministers as well If we are different from ordinary persons in having a good time as long as they stick to the innocent highways," he remarked, after he had done the figure 8. "A place like this is not a bad thing if it is decently conducted. People must nave some place to go these hot nights." "Now don't play me up in the paper, as I don't think a preacher ought to be followed every place he goes," and with this Dr. Short headed for the street-car at about 10 o'clock, chuckling to himself over the good time he had experienced. Wanamaker Will Build Store. SAN FRANCISCO, July 27. The old site of the St. Ignatius Church and College, comprising an entire block, was leased yesterday to Wanamaker & Brown. The transaction is one of the largest, made since the fire. The amount of rental for five years will aggregate sevBral workmen stood guard - while a messenger was sent for a policeman. Patrolman Goltz was within a block or two of the brewery, on his way to get the thief, when that individual suddenly sprung a surprise that gained him his' freedom. He had been standing in a cor ner in a resigned manner, as if he had no further Interest In getting free. Of a sudden he plunged through a window and was gone. Of fleer Golts and the entire working force joined in the chase this time, but the hungry man, with a des perate spurt, distanced all pursuers, final ly giving them the slip. The workmen at the brewery were Just congratulating themselves that the thief had not succeeded in getting away with the pail of lunch when discovery was made that a valuable wrench had disap peared. The culprit who had not been searched, carried the Implement away with him, and the brewery employes will have to buy a new one. EVENING OAKS $291,000.

CABLE SPOILS ELOPEMENT PRETTY GERMAN WIMj BE SENT BACK TO BREMEN. Anna Tretz Weeps Bitterly When Refused Landing at Request of German Consul. NEW YORK, July 27. (Special.) Acting on a request from the German Consul in this city, who asked that she be detained, Anna Tretz, a pretty German girl, was not allowed by the Immigrant officials to land when she arrived on the steamer Pretoria from, Bremen this afternoon. Behind the request of the Consul, it is said, the story of an elopement of a sen sational character is hidden. On the same ship, it is said, was a young man to whose attentions the parents of the girl greatly objected. A few days ago the German Consul received the following cable from the girl's parents: "Please send Anna Tretz home as soon as she arrives." It was noticed by passengers during the voyage that a young man in the first cabin, whose name is not given, was pay ing particular attention to the girl, but the story of the elopement was not made known. When the vessel reached quaran tine and the immigration officials boarded it, the girl was told she would be de tained. She broke down and cried bitterly, but refsued to commit herself, declining to say whetner her fiance was on board or to discuss her elopement and flight from Bremen. The girl will be taken to Ellis Island tomorrow. Land Floats Off in Lake. SHEBOYGAN. Wis., July 27.

A generous highwayman held up and robbed the Idaho saloon, at 171 First street, at 12:15 this morning, taking only part of the day's receipts because of the proprietor of the place had only lately opened his saloon. Entering the place, the highwayman asked for a glass of whisky and placed money on the bar to pay for the liquor. Changing his mind about the drink, he told the bartender to hold up his hands and turn over the cash register receipts. The bartender, who had been employed there but two days, demurred on the ground that the place had been recently opened and that it would put the place out of business if it were robbed. "Oh, well, if it will close the place, I only want half of' the money," said the robber. The bartender consented to the ar rangement and gave the highwayman 2l, after placing the money in two piles and asking the man behind the gun to take his choice of the money. Still covering the bartender with his revolver and compelling him to turn his back the highwayman made his exit from the place. A telephone message was sent to po Itce headquarters and detectives were HEALTHY HAIR N EWBRO'S RPICIDE It is now possible for everyone to have healthy and rich-looking hair, by using Kewbro's Herpicide, the ORIGINAL remedy that "kills the dandruff germ."
