Northwestern Leanuo with Port

are results speak for themselves.
Northwestern country growing so
rapidly need not look further for
competition, and our business li an
advertisement for each city repre

place in the race, and the pennant
Is t great honor to any city.
D. E. DUGDALE.
WITJi G. MACRAE.
IiuKdale wasn't asked for a treatise on
the development of the Northwest or the
-alue of keen competition between cities
for baseball pennant. What, lie was
fcpked was his position in regard to tho
Tresent baseball situation and whether
lie fa vorrd the Padrtc Coaot League or
the Northwest League. The answer
fthOfts how far DiiRtiale comes to niak-
inir an answer to the query- Everybody
.knows about t he dcvrlopment of t he
Northwest. That is one reason that the
lans or Portland will have nothiw? to
do with th Northwest Ieagnie. They
know that to stand for Class B baseball
Is taking a wtp back.
That Dugdale Is flirting Is shown by
Ills tOlegVftm. First and foremost. Dusr-
dale want.s to break bark into baseball.
Second, he wann to he in the kh mo mid
re. the main ant-cease. Thl i k a very
laudable ambition. Hut he Is .wanting

-toreheads in Portland. Duprdale has liopoH
that if iSenttle falls to put a team in the
'nn8t l-enifue, Portland wilt follow suit.

Iwsuness and JiuIrc McCrodie said yester
day afternoon: "Jut an Ion a tho fanR
of Portland want Pacific Coast T4arite
tiHeehall, Walter and myself etand ready
to jflve it to them. We could perhaps
make move money bfl boinR In the North
west League. This In not the question.
We are out to Rive the farm the kind of
baseball they want."

to run a leap- vithout Ihe support of
One of the best baseball towns on the
oast Portland. Naturally. If Portland
would Join Sea ttle in its retrograde nane
ball movement, then the Seattle franchise
to Dugdale vould be a juicy and fat job
for one fat man. But the franchise in
Mr. Lucas' laRii without Portland, would
be a box of lemons.
Dugdale knows this. "That's WllV lie'S

Should thlB answer still be uncertain and

not tie before the week's end. for he
cannot net away before '.hen. Judge Mc-
Credle has no ears about being able to
ret thoroughly reliable Seattle men to
take the franchise. Neither has he any
fear of President Lucas invading Seattle.
This Is Coast I.pRsriie territory and the
only way the Xprthwpst people coufl at
tempt to enter Seattle would be to de-
clara the league an outlaw.
Portland Will Stand Pat.
While an outlaw organization may not
have difficulty in rounding up financial
harklnir in Seattle, here in Portland it Is
doubtful whether a dollar could be raised.
A number of Portland business men were
stuns when Jack Grim tried to put a
team in the field against the Coasters.
They went across the river for a ball park
arid built a pood Krandstand. but there
wasn't enough people passed through
the gates while hey played there to

WILL NOT DROP CONTEST
llarriiuan Officials Maintain Fight
for Xortli Bank.
Reports that the Columhia Valley Rail
road Company, a Harrlman corporation,
haa glren up the tight on the north bank
of the Columbia in opposition to the
-vrUand & Seattle Railway, are vigor
OuMy denied by Harrlman officials who
have been directing the struggle for the
grade down the river.
v.-'v. cotton, counsel for the Harriman
mtercKtH in the Northwest, sa;d last night
that the Harrlman people have by no
means given up the tight. He saM they
ftro still hoperul of victory and will push
the pending litigation until rights along
the Washington shore are definitely set
tied. It was predicted some time ago that
the Columbia Valley, having apparently
ioct nght, would be compelled to with-
Jraw sooner or later and the money so
far spent In grading preliminary to con
struction was a total waste. However.
President Gerllnger, of the Columbia Yttl.
Ify, Will IlOt yet admit defeat, and Bays
the matter will be fought out in the
-ourts. "
We have not withdrawn our grading
camps except in such cases as court de-
Jisions ordprod our removal. As we were
not allowed to work within SO feet of
!h Portland & Seattle line, our construc-
Uun has been somewhat interfered with.
Men are still working on our line," said
Mr. Gerlinser.
"We have the law on our side and will
by no means give up the flght for the
north bank. We have 62 suits pending,
which we will push in theh)gher courts.
The Supreme Court has not yet been
heard from and the Biddle case, allowing
the Portland & Seattle to condemn right
of way, does not affect us in any way.
"We have not yet be (run to fight, and
expect to win out In the end."
DOCTRINE OF WORKING MAN
V. I. Fisher Says Socialism Is Move-
merit of Majority-
"What is Socialism?" was the subject
discussed by W. I. Fisher, formerly of
J-yle, Wash., but now a resident of this
city, at the regular weekly meeting of
the socialists at their hall, 309 Davis
street, last night.
'Socialism.' said the speaker, "is the
result of the evolution of Industry and.
society and comes as a result of a, for-
mation of our present industrial system
Jn that the means of production have
ceased to be Individual and are socla-Uzed.
.As r result of this condition, there are
formed two classes in society having
divergent interests. It is inevitable that
classes shall have an expression of their
clas interests on both their economic and
political neki. Socialism la the expres
sion of the interest of the "working class
In economics and politics. In the growth,
through the modern system, the working
class is forced into contention with the
capitalist class and becomes the over
Whelming mass of society.
"Socialism is a movement of the Im
mense majority in the interest of the
immense majority. Consequently, the
working class, . being the overwhelming
majority, will not permit plutocracy to
always rule In Industry and politics, but
as tkey see' their open, shameless and
naked exploitation by the capitalist
class, will seize the power of government
and of Industry from those now their
masters and administer It in the interest
of the working class, thus doing away
with all class exploitation, class oppres
sion and class rule, abolishing all classes
In society."
J. M. Cameron was chairman of the
meeting and supplemented the address of
Mr. Fisher with a further exposition
of Socialistic principles.

HOLD PARTY IN LINE
Retain Convention Feature in
Direct Primary.
JONES IDEA IS POPULAR
Republican Politicians of Washing
ton State Will Insist Xhat Old
Institution Be Not Entirely
Shattered by the People.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Jan. 6. Special.)
The convention feature "will probably be
retained in any direct primary bill that
is passed by the next legislature. Con
gressman Wesley I Jones wants it. and
since he announced his position prominent
Republican workers have insisted that the
position taken by the Yakima Congress
man is correct. It was a-n original idea
when the Yakima statesman put It before
the Republican state convention, but in
the four months that have elapsed local
leaders In most of the counties of the
state have adopted It as their own sug
gestion. It has been repeatedly explained that
the direct primary is more popular with
the masses than with those who have to
do with politics. The politicians have
taken over the direct primary idea be
cause It is. popular and because it Is time
that something was done Ip politics to
convey the impression that the general
public had something to say about the
people that rule over them. They have
agreed to pass a direct primary bill be
cause it Is best policy to do so. not be
cause they want the institution.
it introduces an inharmonious note In
the poetry of politics and puts the bosses
to the trouble of finding- some new method
of keeping; control.
catch Em Comln' and Goin',
Whether or not there Is anything in the
suggestion given by a prominent local'
Uemocrat a few days ago that if the Re
publicans ao not pass a direct primary
bill the Democrats will win because of
a failure to keep faith, and if they do
enact such a law the Democracy Is cer
tain of success because the new method
i a third man's hope, Is accepted by Re-
publican leaders an a definition of the
party's dilemma. -

Somehow those who have been In the
habit of attending conventions do not
want to disturb that institution. If H iS
to do nothing more than adopt a platform.
the politicians want that much of a sem
blance of party organization. If possible,
still more authority is sought for the con
vention each biennial period.
Sticklers for Second Choice.
The direct primary league proposes that
first and second choices be Recorded for
every party nominee from Senator to
Constable, arfd that Judges of Klectlon
wrestle with the problem of finding a
popular choice until they have balanced
up all accounts. Politicians do not Know
Mat t0 do With this second choice siig-
Utestlon. It offers too many possibilities
of chooflnit an - unpopular candidate.
ThoBe who have followed the political
game recall the assIijUOUS attention glVpfi
l)y senatorial aspirants to second choice
preferences of legislative nominees in pant
nnnatorial contesW, and It has genpra 1 1 v
proven true that the second choices won
out,
Fear Power of Newspapers.
The troth f the matter Is that the Old
politicians are afraid of the influence Of
the newspapers upon the newcomers.
This state is being so rapidly" settled by
Kasterners that the crop of new voters
every biennial period is sufficient to turn
the scale of an election. As a rule, tile
lieWCOmers are Republican in sentiment.
and they come from the Middle West,
where tlte voters are taueht to vote a
straight ticket. If the nominations can
be kept within party lines, unaffected by
public print, the politicians have no fear
of the direct primary.
There are comparatively few offices
that stir up the politicians, but for these
few the "organization" is needed. Not
to exceed a ecore of prominent politicians,
as an example, have been taken care of
by the congressional delegation, but there
are hundreds of men throughout the state
who are tapKed as politicians and who
strut around biennially and assume Some
of the responsibility for thefr elevation
to office. That's all the satisfaction
there is in it at present, but these "poli
ticians" are chary about dividing this
honor with the general public under a
direct primary bill.
Factional Lines Still Linger.
It doesn't make any difference how
much John I... Wilson may declare his
divorcement from politics, away down
deep the old timer in political affairs of
this state can only see two Republican
factions: the Wilson and anti-Wilson; or
the Ankeny and antl-Ankeiiy factions.
Govervor Mead. Land Commissioner Ross,
the three Congressmen, the railroads, the
anti-railroad group, the agriculturists, the
urban and the rural vote are merely
rated as incidentals. And no matter how
humble or how exalted the position of
the- old-timer in politics may be. his con
cern In this -direct primary nght is
whether the other faction is going to de.
rive a benefit. The old-timer doesn't
know what o do with the newcomer, and
he wants the convention left to keep him
In line.

the i-eswel was left to her fate the Ioro

by Captain Jamison, of the Steam

from the fact that all the captain's papers

Coal Thieves Believed to Have Set
Building on Plre to Cover Their
crinic-suppiics Destroyed.
NORTH ' A'K IMA. Wagli., Jan. 6.
(spe-iai.)-Tiie Hign school' building
at this place, burned thin afternoon,
with a loss of about $50,000 to the dis
trict. " rriie origin of the fire Is tin-
known, but Is supposed to have been
Rtarted by someone stealing: coal from
the baBt-mcn t.
It was discovered at about 3 P. M.
ana it was not until 6:30 that tho
flames burnt from the roof. There wa
a fire In the furnace in the basement,
but the janitor had been to aee It and
went through the building at 1 o'dork
and reported everything in fcood condi
tion and little fire in the furnace.
When the firemen arrived on the .
scene the blaze was In the coat pile,
burning fiercely, and for two and a half
hours they fought heroically to put It
out. but it had aralned such a headway
In every part of the basement that it
was impossible to get It under con
trol. The building was erected In 1900. at
a cost of $21,000 to the district, but the
same bulldlnpr could not be built today
for $35,000, The loss in books and sup
plies is estimated at about $12,000. The
pupils lost about $1-00 worth of books
and, other supplies. A library of 1500
books was consumed, and the private
library of Superintendent Reed, con
sisting of 300 books, was a total loss.
There are 220 pupils in the HiKh.
School department and 40 in tho one
grade room in the building.
The board will at once rent avail
able halls and attempt to provide for
the High School pupils. As the entire
lot of supplies, consisting of all the
books and stationery on hand, were
destroyed and there are none In the
city to be secured, it is probable that
It will be some weeks before the dis
trict will be in shape to operate school
again. The Insurance on the building
was about $10,000. The structure was
of brick wal Is and wood Interior, but
the walls are a total wreck.
Killed Perhaps by Train.
NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. Jan. 6. (Spe
cial.) Daniel Kinney, an old pioneer and
formerly a rancher of the Ahtanum, was
found dead along the Northern Pacific
traeks north of the city early this morn
ing. It was reported lirst that he had
been murdered, but It is the opinion that
he was struck by a passing freight train,
