6 THE MORNING. OREGONlAN, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1906. 1 Idaho Republican Leader Loy ', al to Party's Nominee. WILL HELP ELECT HIM o Bad Feeling Over Senatorial Con test Heyburn Indorses Effort to Run Down and Punish Steunenberg's Murderers. BOISE. Idaho, Sept. 14. (Special.) The Republican campaign was opened here this morning with a rousing meeting-. The meeting was notable particularly for two speeches. One of these wos by J. H. Brady, chairman of the state coiarnittee. In favor of Mr. Borah, the candidate for Senator, whom he has been charged with plot ting to defeat. The other was by Senator Heyburn, who made a strong plea that the hands of the Governor and others be upheld In their efforts to bring those to Justice whom there Is reason to believe are guilty of the assassination of Governor Steunenberg. Chairman Brady introduced Edgar Wilson as chairman of the meeting. In his remarks Mr. Brady referred to the published charge that he was con spiring to bring about the defeat of Sir. Borah In the Legislature and said: "It Is useless for me to speak of this to those of you who know me, but let me say once for all, to all the world, that I am going to use every bit of the ability and energy I possess, from now until the polls close, to elect W. E. Borah to the United States Sen ate. I consider him the choice of the party for this exalted position. Any Republican member of the Legislature who does not work for his election and vote for him Is no friend of mine, and is not a true Republican." Mr. Borah's address was short, de voted mainly to a refutation of the charge made by Senator Dubois that Mr. Borah got his nomination through a deal with the Mormons. Senator Heyburn was the principal speaker. His address was mainly on National Issues, but he went Into state matters at some length. Touching upon the Caldwell murder case, he said the people had faith In the ability - and desire of their officials to ruri down and punish those who violated the law. Taking up the charge that the federation officers arrested had been denied some rights, the Senator chal lenged anybody to show In what re spect their rights had been violated. There was no ground, he said, upon which to charge that the officials had violated the law, or that the accused men would not be dealt with in abso lute fairness.

He wanted to Impress upon his listeners the importance of his technical and practical observations. And his words fell not upon headless ears, as every one In the auditorium listened with attention. Colonel Roessler is not partial .to the work at the mouth of the Columbia other than that he believes that, like when erecting a building, there should first be a foundation: He believes that the ob taining of greater depth at the mouth Is the most apparent and feasible founda tion for the great work of Improvement of the Columhla River, and that after It is completed the other composite parts to form the whole should be put In place. From all parts of the country come re quests and entreaties to Congress for ap propriations for river and harbor Im provements. The appropriations for the last ten years average only J18.250.000 an nually. Until the appropriations are en larged the Northwest can receive only a fraction of the money so badly needed. And -Inasmuch as but a limited amount can be had if the present policy of the Government Is pursued and that the char acter of the work at the bar is such that It should be pushed -forward to comple tion. Colonel Roessler urges that the work t the mouth of the river come first. He continued: "To complete the project there remalnn to build tho outer 6600 feet of the .omh Jetty, at an estimated cost of $1,500,000 and, the north, jetty, at ft coat heretofore FOR RDRAM estimated too low, perhaps, at 11.200,000. For many reasons it is desirable to com plete the south Jetty, where all the plant Is now collected, before beginning the north Jetty, and It is my earnest hope that Congress will provide the entire J2.500.000 at the coming session, either by appropri ating the full sum required or by au thorizing a continuous contract. "The importance of providing the entire sum at one time cannot be overestimated. The etone must be conveyed to a Jetty over a pile trestle, and this trestle Is ex posed not only to the fearful-toreakers of that locality, but to the teredo, whose ravages will make uncreosoted plies as brittle as plpestems within a period of 12 months. The only possible way to do this work with reasonable promise of success at moderate cost Is to wait until the entire sum haa been made available and then rush It to a finish as rapidly as possible. To attempt to construct the outer 6500 feet at different times under two separate appropriations would result In a great waste of time and a great waste of money In renewing and maintaining several miles of coBtly pile trestlee." Colonel Roessler also declared that the most pressing item to be provided by the next Congress is an appropriation of $200,000 for a new dredge to replace the dredge' Wm. S. Ladd, now relied upon ex clusively for operating in the lower PITHY REMARKS AT CHAMBER - OF COMMERCE MEETING. Congressman Ransdeli I beg of you, not only you of Portland but of the whole,- great Northwest, to get together and help boost along this mighty movement which has aa Its aim an annual appropriation of Con gress of $50,000,000 for rivers and harbors Improvements. When we ob tain this and not until then will yon receive the National aid that you de serve. Congressman Jones Adopt a broad and truly liberal policy, pull for every deserving project In your own state and every other state, and I will promise that the time will come when Oregon will receive what It needs. W. D. Wheelwright Since the In corporation of the Port of Portland there has been expended in river and harbor ImDrovements a sum of over $2,000,000. all of which has been raised by levying a tax on the citi zens of this city. The citizens of Portland have demonstrated that they belong to the class referred to by the proverb, "Qod helps those who help themselves." Governor Chamberlain No dispar agement Is reflected upon Congress man Ransdeli when I say that the people of the East are Ignorant of the great resources and Importance of the West. We feel and know that Congressman Ransdeli will go back to Washington to do all within his pow er to assist those people who assist themselves. ' reaches of the river where the large scow dredges of the Port of Portland cannot safely maneuver. . He stated that this Item is of the ut most importance, as tne old dredge is worn out and not worth repairing and liable to break down at any time. Such an event might lead to serious results, as there is no dredge' on the Pacific Coast suitable for the. work that the old dredge is . doing. Colonel Roessler declared that It Is recognized that bo long as conditions demand very large appropriations for the bar at the mouth of the river, temporary expedients must be relied upon for keep ing a good channel to Portland. Ransdeli Arouses Enthusiasm. - Thursday night, when Congressman Ransdeli arrived in Portland, he stated in an interview that he was in the North west to do what he could to arouse en thusiasm over the Importance of river and harbor Improvements. His trip has been fruitful of results Judging from the enthusiasm he aroused at the meeting last night. He opened the eyes of those who heard him deliver his splendid speech and before he had concluded nearly every person there was as much of an en thusiast on the subject as the Congress man Is himself. He declared that the greatest problem now confronting the civilized nations of the world was that of transportation and) that the country that mastered It would win out in the race for commercial su premacy. The Improvement of the water ways, in his opinion, is the secret of it all. He said that railway transportation is six times more expensive than by water. He is for fighting for an annual appropriation by Congress of $50,000,000 for river and harbor improvement and urged upon the people of the Northwest to band together with the people of other parts of the country In bringing this about. He declared that Oregon was getting Its share of the appropriations, but that it would not receive all that Is needed until sufficient pressure can be brought upon Congress to make It recog nize the importance of the demands of commerce. Governor Chamberlain, W. D. Wheel" wrlght and Congressman Jones, of Wash ington, were the others who spoke. President Hoge. of the Chamber of Com merce, presided and Introduced the speak ers. All of those who addressed the meeting were liberally applauded, and from the representative gathering of citizens and the interest they took In all that transpired. It must have been plain ly demonstrated to Congressman Rans deli that the people of Portland and the whole Northwest fully realize what the Improvement of the Columbia River means to this section of the United States. Last night before the meeting at the Chamber of Commerce Mr. Wheelwright gave a dinner at the Arlington Club In honor of Congressman Ransdeli. Among the guests were Governor Chamberlain, President Hoge and the public men who accompanied the party to Celllo yester day. , MAY SETTLE THE STRIKE "Leader In Coast Sailors' Union Ar gues With "Longshoremen, i SAN PEDRO, Sept. 14.

The suit was begun by the Oregon & Washington to stop the Portland & Seattle from constructing a grade on land where the working gangs of both lines are within 20 feet of each other. Richard Conrad owns the land. Several years ago Conrad granted a right of way for the old Union Pacific grade. A recent survey by the Port land" & Seattle changed this. He built his buildings on the old survey. A short time ago be granted another right of way to the Oregon & Wash ington, which has the original survey of the Union Pacific. Both parties now claim the right of way. Judge Rice ordered both to cease work until the dispute is settled by the court. The case will be tried on Its merits Octo ber 16.

TAKEN OVER BY THE TRUST Garfield Rural Telephone System Sold Conditional on Better Service. GARFIELD, Wash.. Sept. 14. (Spe cial.) The Pacific States Telephone Company is believed now to have prac tically all the rural tephone lines In the Palouse country under its control. The Garfield farmers were the last to come In. They have taken the Paeiflo States service on trial for 60 days, when. If satisfactory, the rural' Gar field line will pass. Into the hands of the big corporation. The Pacific States Company agrees to give the rural lines Detter service than they have ever be fore had and charge them only $1 a year maintenance, where before they paid $2.40 a year. Many of the farm ers do not like the idea of having their lines merged 'into the big company, while others are well pleased with the change. With connections mae with rural lines here the expense will be greater for the old line company. It will now take three operators to do the work where before one was employed. The business men are pleased with the change and hope It will be permanent. NO CORPSES IN SEA CAVE Tug Sea Lion Brings Denial of the Story Grant Brings Bodies. SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 14.

When Inspector O'Fallon began an in vestigation of White's bank connections, White "skipped out" and has not been seen here since, although" It Is claimed he can be produced when he Is wanted. Much testimony has been given show ing that White was very bold In his op erations. He was in the habit of asking people: "Why don't you take up a tim ber claim and make some easy money?"

Though the line at the bank was as long today as it was yesterday, many of the people In It were only drawing out small sums of money. Few are now calling for the full amount of their deposits.

There has been quite a change in the fishing situation during the past two days and the prices which opened low have practically doubled, such is the scramble to secure the catch, especially chlnooks. The advance in rates was started by the plants further up the river, and while some assert that the demand for the canned product warrants the Increase, others say it is an effort to put the new Clifton cannery out of business. The catch continues fairly good al though the weather has been so rough that many of the gillnetters have not ventured out.

Hurt and his Bon Frank, were questioned in regard to the practices in dulged in by the Holy Rollers and the commission learned many details that the witnesses heretofore had refused to di vulge.

"Large Crowd Assembles on Fair Ground to Look Over Equlnes of Blue Blood. SALEM, - Sept. 14. (Special.) A live stock parade, of which horses made up by far the greater part,"1 was the chief feature of the Btate Fair today. And the horse show was well worthy of the in terest it received from the large crowd that assembled on the grounds to in spect the animals as they were led In procession around the circle and down through the judge's pavilion where the spectators' stands on either side was packed to its full capacity. For the first time In many years, the ponderous bulls and matronly cows at tracted little attention. The stamping draft stallions, with manes and tails gaily decked with ribbons, the nervous, impatient trotting stallions, and prancing colts led beside their anxious mothers, all came in for the first place In. publlo notice. Expressions of admiration for the German and French Coach horses, show that farmers are looking for a combina tion of roadster and work horse. At the same time, the general interest In the Clydes, Percherons and Belgians evidences a wide recognition of the large demand and comparatively small supply of the heavy horses needed for the truck and dray work of . the cities. If the market for heavy horses should remain as strong as it is now, the horse show will continue to be the principal feature of the fair. Among the awards to horses were the following: Thoroughbred stallion, 4 years and over Charles Earle's Laldlaw. first; H. L. Cor bett's Trentard, second. Thoroughbred stallion. 2 years and over J.
