WASHINGTON TRIO
AGAINST REVISION
State Convention Will Declare
Against Any Changes in
the Tariff. "
BUSINESS IS GOOD NOW
Leaders Are ot Much Interested in
National Policies and Will Ac
cept Views of the Congres
sional Delegation.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Sept. 9. (Special.)
The coming Republican State Con
vention will declare against the modi
fication, of the existing tariff. In obedi
ence to the demand of the Congression
al delegation from this state. The home
delegations of the three Congressmen
have yielded to their pressure and the
request of the state's representatives
in bath houses, for an indorsement of
their "stand pat" attitude will unques
tionably be indorsed.
The plea that this state's interests In
the coal and lumber tariffs demand a
"stand-pat" attitude, lest the tariff
schedules affecting these two Indus
tries be upset; has been the principal
rallying ground. -But more important
than this appeal to home products is
the fact that the people are too busy
to be deeply concerned with the tariff.
Business Is good enough now and the
party men are not concerned with Na
tional legislation very much. If the
Congressional delegation says that cer
tain policies should bo followed; well
and good. This Congressional delega
tion is In now and is going back. With
that the average voter dismisses the
matter.
It is a fact tnat the present Congres
sior.al delegation is going back. Their
renomination has been a settled conclu
sion of tho party for months past; if It
were not tho hard and fast alliance be
tween ail the members of the Congres
sional delegation would control the
state convention and force a trio of
renomlnations.
Democrats Have No Expectations.
There Is not even an active discus
sion among Democrats of available tim
ber. The .Democracy will hold a state
convention largely as a matter of
course and to help keep up Interest In
those counties where a fignMng chance
is believed to exist. None of the Demo
cratic state leaders has any expecta
tion of cutting very deeply Into the
Republican majorities.
Liabor leaders will hold a state con
ference between the Republican and
Democratic conventions. That is, It is
stated now that they plan one. It has
been stated, too, that the advisability
of a labor state ticket has been consid
ered, but that is all conjecture. The
larger towns are unionized but even
the labor leaders would not claim a
labor organization could defeat the Re
publican candidates.
Xo Attention Paid to Gompers.
Gompers declared war on Jones, but
the announcement has not aroused
much Interest. It -has not been- given
out that the two other Congressmen
took the trouble to answer Gompers'
letter and they may be under the ban.
But tnls could not accomplish their
defeat. So party men accept it as a
fact fiat the three Congressmen will
not only be renominated but will be re
elected. So why not let. them write the
platform; they will do about as they
.please anyway, reason the average del
egate who thinks much on the subject.
The Indorsement of President Roose
velt, certain to be the feature of the
.platform and an appeal to stand by
Ms administration, will be linked with
the "stand pat" Issue on the tariff.
What follows afterward is inconse
quential. Rooseveltism and "stand
patism" are to be made the campaign
cries.
Demand for Direct Primaries.
As a matter of fact the convention Is
certain to demand a direct primary law
and will probably go to the trouble to
point with pride at results accom
plished within the party. In the past
the Republican conventions have in
dorsed a list of requested labor legisla
tion. It may be done this year. But
the men who will Influence the plat
forms have tried thus far to keep the
campaign pledges down to a minimum,
because there is really not very much
to talk aoout or to fight over.
Then, too, there is much less danger
in leaving a thing unsaid than there is
in saying too much about the wrong
thing. The principal ones of the old Is
sues of railroad regulation, tax re
form, state economy and corporation
control have been pretty largely elim
inated by legislation. The times have
not invented new demands.
It la pretty certain that the four Su
preme Court Judges, Wallace Mount, R.
O. Dunbar, Herman D. Crow and Mllo A.
Root, will be nominated. Dunbar has
teen on the bench since the beginning of
statehood. He was elected first from
Goldendale, but he now counts Olympia
as his home. There has been a mild sort
of protest over this and some ripple of
dissatisfaction over what Interested per
sons call a slight anti-corporation lean
ing, but the lawyers generally want him
returned.
Judges Attacked by Labor Press.
Root find Crow have been attacked
-lclously in the labor press because they
differed with the majority of the court In
a. Thurston County personal damage case.
Bo far there has been no objection raised
to Mount. Aside, though, from any ques
tion of difference enough county indorse,
ments have been given the members of
the Supreme bench to Insure their re
nomination. Mose Gose. of Garfield, and Judge Rice,
of Lewis, have been urged as judicial
nominees. The sentiment (n favor of re
nominations this year eliminates them,
though they may be favorably enough
mentioned in the convention gossip. Had
either of them launched a boom in a
year when a full state ticket were to be
nominated a better chance of .winning
would have followed.
The coming Republican convention will
be one consisting very largely of speech
making. Being deprived of convention
fights over nominations the delegates will
listen to oratory. United States Senator
.6. H. Piles, Congressman Will E. Hum
phrey, Francis W. Cushman and Wesley
L. Jones will be the chief among the
orators, but it Is expected there will be
flights of eloquence from others at the big
meeting.
As side Issues there will be considerable
interest over the nomination, of State
Eenators from joint districts. 'These are
to be chosen: Klickitat and Skamania;
Clallam, Jefferson and San Juan; Pacific
and Wahkiakum. George H. Baker re
tires, after continuous service In the two
houses since 197 from Klickitat and
Skamania. He is United States Marshal
for Eastern Washington. Baker will
probably choose his own successor.
Pacific County reporta show John T.
Welsh was defeated for renomination in
Paeiflo and Wahkiakum. IX Pacific set
tles its fight, that county will name the
Joint Senator. If not there Is a chance
for "Joe" Megler, of Wahkiakum, tho
oldest legislator. In experience. In the
state.
Cyrus P. Clapp has moved down from
Port Townsend and Is leaving the Sena
torial fight in his old district for real
estate ventures. Clapp, like Baker, went
Into the House In 1897, a member of the
lonely "23" Republican band that finished
the session. There were more at the out
set but the Populists tossed two out of
the House because Middle-of-the-Roaders
wanted their seats.
Clapp and Baker retire the oldest mem
bers in continuous service In both
branches and old-time followers of poll
tics . will show a deep Interest in their
successors. .

ASTORIA, Or., Sept. 9. (Special.) Al
fred Gustafson, of thta city. Is missing
and Is supposed to have been drowned in
a very peculiar manner. The young man
left here about 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon in the little launch Zephyr for Sea
borg's Cannery, at Bay View, on the
north side of the river. Late in the

DANCING 111 HQPYARDS
PICKKRS EXJOT RELAXATION
AFTER A WEEK OF TOIL.
Results From Some Tracts Show
That Crop Will Be Much Lighter
Than Anticipated.
INDEPENDENCE, . Or., Sept. 9.
(Special.) Hoppickers In the Inde
pendence district are resting today.
With only one or two exceptions, pick
ing began in all. the yards the past
week. The pickers have settled down
in their hopfleld homes, make a few
dollars and welcomed Sunday as a day
of rest and recreation, and the larg
est army of pickers that ever invaded
the- hopflelds of Oregon's hop center
wll start out afresh tomorrow. All
the larger yards are supplied with pick
ers, but there is a shortage In some
of the smaller ones a distance out from
Independence.
Last night was one of merry-making
In the hop district. There were or
chestras and dancing In the amuse
ment halls provided by all the larger
yards. All the way from Rickreall
and the big Horst yard, four miles to
the north of Independence, to the
Krebs yard, four miles south, the thou
sands of hoppickers enjoyed the first
Saturday night of the picking season
at dancing or such other form of
amusement as suited their pleasure.
The intervening yards from Horst s to
Krebs", besides Pomeroy's, Wells' and
Richardson's, of the Buena Vista
neighborhood, either furnished attrac
tions at their own yards, or helped to
swell the crowds at the larger yards
with superior accommodations.
At the Krebs yard, which is pro
vided with an excellent dance hall,
60x150 feet, there were 400 couples
on the floor at one time. Today faany
of the pickers came Into town to spend
the Sunday, and the streets of Inde
pendence and hotels are overrun -i-lth
visitors.
There are some fine hops in the
river-bottom yards, but the prediction
of light yields on the uplands Is being
verified. Fred Hooper has finished a
small yard. Instead of 20.003 pounds,
as he expected, the yield was 12,000.-
Pickers are awaiting with some Im
patience the opportunity to compete
with the best records In so.ne of the
heavier bottom yards this week, in
In Fltchord's yard, a 16-year-old girl
picked nine boxes Friday, making her
$4.50.

HORSES AT THE FAIR
Blooded Cattle Are Compelled
to Take Second Place.
INDUSTRY IS GROWING
Prices of Draft Animals Have Ad
vanced During the Past Few
Tears, and Breeders Find
Business Profitable.
SALEM. Or.. Sept. 9. (Special.) The
horse show will be the feature of the
Oregon State Fair for the year 1906. The
livestock department has for a number
of years been the chief center of interest,
and owing to the development ot dairy
ing, the cattle show has attracted most
attention. Good horses have always been
here but they were few In number and
the people spent little time Inspecting the
exhibit.
Though there has been no diminution
of interest In cattle, of both the dairy and
beef breeds, there has been a very
marked increase of interest in horses.
Offers of $300 for draft horses by men
NEW COMMISSIONER OF" EDU
CATION. Dr. Elmer E. Brown.
Dr. Elmer B. Brown, appointed Com
missioner of Education by President
Roosevelt upon the resignation of Dr.
William T. Harris, belongs to the group
of younger men among the educational
leaders of the country. Identified by
birth with the Empire State, he Is in
a larger sense representative of the
Middle West and the Pacific Coat,t.
The University ot Michigan Is his
Alma Mater and the field of his earli
est work as - a university professor.
His studies were completed In the phil
osophical faculty of Halle, Where he
gained his Ph.D. and strengthened bl
natural bias for 'historical research.
Combining with high scholarship the
practical experience of a teacher aDd
superintendent of public schools, - he
brought to - the professorship .of- edu
cation in the University of California,
which position he .has held since 1893,
a combination of qualities that found
full scope for exercise In the peculiar
administrative relations of that uni
versity to the school system of the
state.
who search the country over for animals
they can buy, has aroused farmers to the
opportunity presertted of making' good
money with horses as a side issue.
Breeders Seize the Opportunity. .
Breeders have been awake to the situa
tion and have procured thoroughbred
sires of the heavy draft class. Thus 1t
comes that in the last three or four
years horse breeding has grown in im
portance in Oregon and owners of sup
erior stock are flocking to the State Fair
to show their breed.
The horse barns at the Fair Grounds
were over-crowded yesterday and gangs
of men was at once set at work con
structing new barns to accommodate the
horses that will arrive tonight and to
morrow. Not only In heavy draft horses but In
coach horses and light roadsters, the fair
of 1906 will surpass any or its predeces
sors. In public interest there is every
Indication that the cattle must this year
take second place.
Exhibitors Hard at Work.
Exhibitors are rushing the work of
putting their products in place for- in
spection by visitors and a large force of
clerks are worked to the limit in the
effort to get all the entries correctly re
corded. That this will be the banner
State Fair there Is every reason to be
lieve, and since the rain of Friday night
and the succeeding fair weather there Is
every promise that this annual exposition
will set a new mark in the matter of at
tendance. All day today thousands of people
strolled through the grounds, watching
the progress of preparations and admir
ing those exhibits already on display.
Columbia's Fine Showing.
"Everybody knows that Columbia
County is one of the best timber counties
In the state so we have made no exhibit
of our timber v resources," says E. H.
Flagg, of St. Helens, who has charge of
the Columbia County booth. "Some peo
ple have the idea that our resources be
gin and end with timber and we have
come here this year to show them that
we produce something else," he continued
with a wave of his hand toward a dis
play of apples, pears and peaches cal
culated to make Hood River Jealous. The
Columbia County exhibit 1b small but is
of remarkably good quality and will be
an eye-opener to people who have gained
their knowledge of Columbia County
through reports of saw mill business- and
exhibits of Harry West's Jerseys.
"We're cutting off the timber," says
Mr. Flagg, "and this is to show you that
the land Is good for something after the
timber is gone," and he patted a musk
melon as large as a fair sized water
melon. The formal opening of the State Fair
will take place Monday evening In the
auditorium, when addresses will be de
livered by President Downing, Gov
ernor Chamberlain, Senator Gearln,
Tom Richardson and others. Hallie Par-risii-Hinges
will sing and Miss Emily
Squier'will read. There will also be
music by the Salem Band and the Rose
City Quartet.

Louis Farchi Fires 14 Tiroes
at Mother-in-Law's Home.
INMATES ARE NOT HURT
Jn Drunken Rage Italian Seeks Re
venge In Family Quarrel After
He Has Been Ordered
Off the Premises.
Crazed with liquor and bent on re
venge, Louis Farchi fired 14 shots into
the residence of his mother-in-law, Mrs.
Marie Carlone, shortly before 12
o'clock last night. The shooting oc
curred at Fifth, and Sherman streets.
Farchi used a large caliber shotgun
and to make sure of his work had
filled his pockets with shells loaded
with buckshot before he began the as
sault. Fortunately none of the shots took
effect, although the house at 651 Firth
street, where Mrs. Carlone lives, was
riddled with shot. Several neighbors,
who stood near by, had a narrow es
cape and police officers who arrived on
the scene shortly after the shooting de
clared it a miracle that no one was
killed.
The shooting last night Is the out
come of a family row of long stand
ing. About a mbnth ago Mrs. Carlone
reported to the police that over 700
disappeared from the trunk in her
house, which she runs as an Italian
hotel. The $700 belonged to some of
her boarders and disappeared most
mysteriously from her trunk,-to which
she alone had the key. Detectives were
put on the case and soon discovered
that the thief was no other than Mrs.
Carlone's own son-in-law, Louis Farchi.
The outcome of the case was that Mrs.
Carlone refused to prosecute Farchi,
alleging that the money was returned
to her.
It seems that Farchi, who lives with
his wife at 654 Sixth street, got drunk
last night and went over to his mother-in-law's
house trying to "make up."
Mrs. Carlone ordered Farchi out of the
house and after a few words Farchi
swore he would get revenge. He ran to
his house, obtained the shotgun, loaded
It and then running back commenced
a fusillade at Mrs. Carlone's house.
When he used up all his shells he ran
back to his house to get some more.
About this time Policeman Stewart
heard the shooting and went after Far
chi. He found the gun outside of Far
chi's house and shortly saw Farchi
himself come out with his pockets full
of loaded shells. By this time the patrol
with Officers Isaacs and Brothers, and
plain clothes men Kay and Burke ar
rived on the scene and placed Farchi
under arrest.
Mrs. Carlone and the neighbors who
heard the shooting say that Farchi
made a fhreat to shoot her and after
discharging the first 14 shots made an
other threat.
Farchi was locked up In the City Jail
on tho charge of discharging firearms
in the city limits and It is understood
Mrs. Carlone will make a formal charge
of assault against him this morning.
Farchi denies he was shooting to kill
his mother-in-law and says he was only
having a little target practice.

oped a system that gives all the benefits of surgery without the pain
that surgery involves; a palnleBs system of curing Stricture which acts
directly upon the affected parts: dissolves the abnormal tissue, stops all
Irritation and allays all inflammation of the Bladder and Prostate.
Varicocele is a diseased condition of the scrotal veins. It may be
caused by blows, kicks, falls, heavy lifting, mumps, early indiscretion
or may be a symptom only of some special weakness.
The proper treatment consists of local application for the purpose
of dispelling the stagnant blood and contracting the swollen veins, as
well as internal medication to strengthen the nerves which govern the
blood supply to these veins.
Though causing you no trouble at the present time, your Varicocele
will, if permitted to go without the proper treatment. Impair and destroy
the elements of vitality.
We dally demonstrate that Varicocele can be positively and speedily
cured without cutting, burning or any other form of operation.

Consequent Pain Stopped by Lydla E
Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound.
" It seems as though my back woulc
break." Women litter these wordi
over and over again, but continue t
drag along and suffer with aches in th
small of the back, pain low down ii
the side, " bearing-down" pains, ner
Tousuess and no ambition for any task
They do not realize that the back ii

male organs to a healthy condition.
" I have suffered with female troubles for
over two years, suffering intense pain each
month, my back ached until it seemed as
though it would break, and I felt so weak all
over that I did not find strength to attend to
my work but had to stay in bed a largo part
of the first two or three days every month.
I would have sleepless nights, bad dreams and
severe headaches. All this undermined my
health.
"Wo consulted an old family physician, who
advised that I try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound. I began taking it regularly
and soon found that 1 could sleep and eat
better than I had done for months. - Within
two months I became regular and I no longer
suffer from backache or pain." Miss Maude
