8 THE MORNING OREGONIAN. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 190?. CANDIDATES CITY OFFICES Mayoralty Race Threatens to Become Free-for-AII Scramble. LANE AGAINST MANNING risht on Democratic Side Is Well Defined Republican Une-TJp Is More Hazy Thomas C. Dev lin Xow Most Active. In spite of the fact that the next mu nicipal election Is several months away, candidates for the various offices are be ginning to arroom themselves for the com ing carr.paiKn. Naturally interest ifl cen tered in the Mayoralty flpht. and if the frossip. of the wise counts for anything the battle for the chief executives chair will be one of the hottest in the history of the city. On the Democratic side there nre two men talked of just now Dr. Harry Lane, the present Incumbent, and John Manning, now District Attorney. Tom "Word's name has akw been men tioned, but if his friends are to be taken seriously the ex-Sheriff, although he would iike to ,be Mayor, will not come before the people as a candidate. In the Republican ranis there are many . candidates. First on the list, and. the very first to start the contagion, is Thoman C. Devlin, City Auditor. Devlin, believing that the early bird catches the worm, it Is mid, already has started the machinery of his campaign working. Devlin is not alone in his ambition to rule over the Rose City. Colonel Charles McDonell. who often has been talked of In the past as a candidate for Sheriff, and who served a term as County Asses sor, has friends who are now clamoring for him as Mayor. John Annand. Coun cilman and one of the Olld nine, would, not blush if ho were elected Mayor. Next on the list io Louis Zimmerman. 7-immerman once was president of the Council and while he was a city dad there was lots of talk about him for Mayor. Just why Zimmerman did not come out as a candidate at the last elec tion Is known only to himself and the wise men with whom he held counsel and who must have impressed upon him the fact that he had no chance. t Dan McAlien's Ambition. Still another man has been mentioned, find that Is Dan McAllen. Everybody knows Dan McAllen. While McAllen ia one of the best-known nnd most public-spirited men in town, the wise ones do not think that he Is serious when talking about running for Mayor. W. A. Story, once Mayor and also an- ex Kheriff, has declared that he Is out after t the Mayoralty. Story . has never been satisfied with the plain, every-day duties of a business man since he was retired i by the vote of the people, and there is : more than a chance that he will Insist ' that hia name be placed on the ticket. ! Ht least in ' the primaries. Councilman J Gray Is another city dad who feels that Ihe has been summoned. With the proper I encouragement he would come before the I people In the primaries. Last, but on the list not the least, la i Councilman George S. Shepherd. There I has been considerable talk about Shep , herd for Mayor, but when he Is confront ed with the charge he coyly says lt'o a Joke. Joke or no Joke, Shepherd would not sidestep the berth If he thought there was a possible chance for his election. Ho Is wise enough to realize that he Is the last and even the least of the candi dates that the people would elect as Mayor. He knows, tied up as he is with the Harriman railroad interests, that he has not been called. There Is also that little promise that he made the City Council that he could not explain away. When he had to "fees up" that he was receiving a salary from Harriman he announced that he was go ing to quit the Council. Before he dropped out of sight he wanted Just a little honor. He was not hard to Satisfy. All he wanted was to be named president of the Council. Shepherd was elected president, but the seat that he fell heir to was so "comfy" that he decided to etay put and forgot all about resigning. At any rate, he hasn't resigned up to iate. Perhaps he was waiting until he could be counted in as one of the solid nine. ' Mayor Lane's Strategy. Mayor Lane, while he has been shying on making an announcement about run ning in the primaries, will be a candidate for re-election. Dr. Lane has practically made up his mind to save the expense of the primaries and come out as an inde pendent after the primaries have settled It as to candidates. Mayor Lane and his advisors have figured that with Devlin and Manning in the flpht. Lane coming out as an independent candidate will have better than an even chance In the . three-cornered fight that will follow. Lane's friends do not consider Devlin a formidable foe. They claim that when the committee from the Council makes its report on Devlin's methods of book keeping and handling of the city's cash, Devlin will be relegated to the down-and-out club. Any way they hope that he will be kept so busy explaining that It ;wlll spoil his chances of election. In the Democratic fold there are many hopefuls. At least a dozen of the stal warts wouldn't put up lightning rods to protect themselves from the Mayoralty lightning. Aside from Lane's candidacy, that of Manning is most talked of. Prop erly approached. Alex Sweek, so the gos Bip has it. would not change his residence to St. Johns, if the office of Mayor were to pursue him. Though there is no little talk about Swcek, the real Democratic nose seems to be on the Manning trail. Naturally the big Interest will center in the fight for the Mayoralty, yet there are several other ofiices that will attract some attention. For Instance, there Is the ofn of City Attorney. L. A- McNary, the present City Attorney, has given It out that he will not be a candidate again. This leaves the field open to his two deputies. J. J. Fifzserald and J. P. Kavanaugh. Both are out for the office and If there are any other Republican as pirants for the place they have not come , to the front. Among the Democrats talked of there are citizens Charles A. Petrain and Oglesby Young. A'acancles in Council. The City Council la also due for a change of faces. Half of the present city fathers will go out this time and while Just now there is no scramble for the vacancies, there will be a general awakening before the month ends. In the Fourth Ward there Is already a candidate. George Baker, who once served a term in the City Council, is being urged by his friends to again aspire for a seat. Spanish Sailor Put in Irons. SEATTLE. Feb. 10. The steamship Yucatan reached Seattle this morning from New York and Baltimore, making the 14,500 miles run without a "top MANY 0 for fuel. On the voyage G. Cells, a Spanish coal passer, attempted to In cite a mutiny and was put in irons. He chased the first assistant engineer from the engine room, but was soon overpowered.

Shots were fired out of the darkness and bullets crashed through the windows of the cars. One shot was at Post and Indiana streets and the other at Bridge and Post streets. The men are beginning to get ugly. The water power company was so Intimidated that the car service was stopped at mid night, an hour before the usual time. Chamberlain's Cough. Remedy a Favorite.

Parade on Programme. Representatives of 27 labor unions In Portland met at Socialists' hall. 309 Davis street, yesterday afternoon to arrange for the monster mass meeting to be held February 20 In protest against the con tinued Incarceration of Moyer, Heywood and Pettibone, without privilege of Habeas corpus. The meeting sizzled with redhot speeches and orators hurled dislocated eloquence at alleged violations of the constitution of the United States, and they were wildly applauded. It was one of the most Incendiary meet ings organized labor has held In Port land for a long time, surpassing In vlt- ESTEEMEn CITIZEN' OF HA18IT AND CIVII. WAR VETERAN, TASSES AWAY. The Lata James K. Plymate. Burial services over the remains of James E. Plymate were held Sun day, February 8, at the family home at Halsey, where he passed away January 81. after an Illness of several weeks. Services were conducted by Rev. Mr. piark, of the Methodist Church, of which Mr. Plymate had long been a member. He was born In 1830 In Cabtall County, Virginia He left, besides his wife, two daugh ters and a son, Mrs. R. T. Brown, of Pendleton; Mrs. J. F. Graham, of Portland, and H. G. Plymate. of North Dakota, who were at his bed side. Mr. Plymate was a veceran of the Civil War, having enlisted in Company C Eighteenth Regiment, Iowa Infantry Volunteers, serving until the close of the war. riollc fervor some of the anti-streetcar strike gatherings some weeks ago. A memorial was adopted, after consid erable argument and amendment, which Is to be sent to the Governors of Idaho and Colorado and fo President Roose velt. It reads as follows: . "The greatest overthrow of personal liberty of this generation has taken place in the unconstitutional' methods of the Mlneowners' Association, through their pliant tools who degrade their high posi tions In Idaho and Colorado, and In the midnight assault and deportation of Moyer, Heywood and Pettibone, of Colo rado, to Idaho. "This procedure, sanctioned by the Su preme Court of the United States, vir tually repealed the constitutional rights of habeas corpus, and the right of domi cile. This procedure by the highest tri bunal of the land brushes away entirely all protection which we have been taught Is guaranteed by the National Constitu tion. Plead for Justice. "We therefore appeal to afl -lovers of justice to Join us and make emphatic protest, lest you be the next victims of corporate greed. Every active member of the labor movement In all Its forms Is now liable to feel the heavy hand of the illegal detention and if the consti tutional safeguards and provisions are to be Ignored as In this Moyer, Heywood, Pettibone decision, liberty is to be en Joyed solely at the option of our capital istic masters. "Therefore, to protect our own liber ties and to secure for these Imprisoned victims Vf the Mlneowners' Association their rights, it is necessary for us to unite in a general protest that by the united action of the working class, we may serve an effective warning on the trust and combine magnates of this country, and on their pliant tools in office, that It Is dangerous to trample on the rights of the working class. To this end we declare our intention of using every effort In our power to save our families and our fellow-working men from the Judicial murder plan, and we hereby ex press our faith in the Innocence of Moyer, Heywood and Pettibone, whose only crime has. been loyalty to the working class." Radicals Win the Day. There was a whole lot of wrangling back and forth about the advisability of calling Governors Gooding (of Idaho) and McDonald (of Colorado) "pliant tools of corporate greed," inasmuch as the me morial was to be sent to them, but the radicals swept the conservatives off their feet and the screed was finally sanctioned by an overwhelming vote. The mass meeting which is to be held In protest against the Imprisonment of the above-mentioned labor leaders Is to take place at the Armory on the night of February 20, and It was decided at the session held yesterday afternoon that impetus would be added to the gathering If a parade were held, so It was thought best to hold a parade. Efforts will be made to rally every body of organized labor around the Moyer-Heywood-Pettl-bone banner on that night and a march through the downtown streets will be arranged for by the committee in charge. This movement originated with a Moyer-Heywood-Pettibone League, of National scope, which has affiliated leagues In about 30 states In the Union.

MAJOR M'PAKLA.VD IS HERE Detective Who Secured Harry Or chard's Confession Is In City. Major James McParland, In charge of the Pinkerton Detective Agency at Den ver, the man who secured the confession from Harry Orchard, who assassinated ex-Governor Steunenberg, and who was responsible for the arrest of Moyer, Pet tibone and Heywood, the officials of the Western Association of Miners, arrived in Portland last night from Boise, Idaho. Major McParland was too tired last night to make a statement concerning his visit here at this time. Like the rest of the passengers, he had to travel from The Dalles to Portland by boat. While Major McParland's visit in Port land at this time may have nothing to do with the trials of Moyer, Pettibone and Heywood. which are to be held at Cald well, Idaho, some time this month, there is reason to believe there Is a Portland end to the testimony which will be brought up at the trials. It was not until Major McParland, whose fame as a detective was made when he broke up the Molly McGwires, started to work on Harry Orchard that the world knew that Steunenberg's death was due to a conspiracy. Orchard confessed to Major McParland and so did Steve Adams, and It is upon the statements of these two men and the subsequent evidence which has been secured that the State of Idaho hopes to convict the three men now under arrest at Boise. PREACHER ASS AILS TRUSTS COMPARES GREEDY PLUTO CRATS TO HUNS AND VANDALS. Hot Shot for Harriman and Other Railroad Magnates Compared to Burglars and Highwaymen. 'The Trusts vs. Christianity" was the subject of the sermon of Rev. Hiram Vrooman yesterday morning in the Swe denborgian Church, the services of which are held In Knights of Pythias Hall. The preacher declared that each trust was an army of capital, every dollar toeing a fighting soldier and he compared the use of this capital to the war and bloodshed which Napoleon brought upon the people of France and to the dictatorship of that energetic commander. He sid the trusts are dependent for their life upon deceit, bribery, business assassinations, political murder, property confiscation and the breaking 'of law. No vandal ever stole as much as such men as Harriman, Rogers and Armour, said he. He also compared the "plun der" taken from the common people by Oregon railroads to the goods stolen by the burglar. The hope of sharing the "blood money" he characterized as "devil ish." He said In part: The Napoleons of finance, by the organ ized and militant capital under their con trol, have already established a moneyed dictatorship and tyranny in our Nation. The dollars of the trusts are related to the dollars of legitimate business and to those of widows and orphans precisely as the soldiers of the barons of the Middle Ages were related to merchantmen who were obliged to transport goods past their fortifications. The one exacts tribute from the other. The dollars of the trusts have the same advantage over all other dollars that the soldiery has over the mob. It is true that the capitalization of the trusts represents only about one-third of the entire wealth of the Nation, but the trusts, by the power they have to levy tribute, are gaining every year in the percentage of the wealth created which they receive. The common people receive more from eggs than the Stan dard Oil trust receives from oil. but the dollars of Standard Oil. like looting sol diers, seize a large part of the people's egg money as rapidly as the eggs are sold. Armies which for self-defense and for the enforcement of justice are but the militant arms of Christianity, but wars of conquest are infernal and in deadlv op position to Christianity. The merciless and murderoua conquests of the dollar soldiery of the trusts are laying waste fairer fields in the realm of Christianity than nine-tenths of all the comparatively petty crimes and evils combined, at which nine-tenths of our preachers aim their weapons. Christianity, in its relation to the life of an individual, stands for self-defense against the infernal iniquities in the in dividual heart and for the enforcement of Justice in the government of the individ ual life. But in its relation to the life of society Christianity stands for public vir tue and for government according to eco nomic justice. The trusts today are do ing more than all of her agencies combined to nullify the constructive and regenera tive influences which Christianity would contribute to society. The attitude of Christianity toward the trusts, therefore, is precisely that of its attitude toward any mbodiment of the spirit of his Satanic majesty. The trusts, so long as they are privately owned and have as their object the earn ing of dividends, are. by their verv na ture, dependent for life upon methods of public conduct that are opposed to those prescribed by Christianity. They are de pendent upon deceit, upon bribery, upon business assaslnatlon, upon political mur der, upon property confiscation, and upon the breaking of laws. No conquering Hun or Vandal ever con. fiscated so much property as has any one of several of our financial tyrants such as Harriman. Rogers, Armour. If we could add together the amounts of money taken by burglars and highway men in the whole United States during the past hundred years, the sum would probably not equal the amount of the plunder of the railroads in the single state of Oregon in one year. A railroad president recently declared that if the laws should be enforced against all the railroad officials who had violated the laws, there would not be enough prisons In -the country to hold them. ' Perhaps the most subtle and deadly of the fumes from hell which the trusts ex hale is that Intoxicating allurement which leads people to excuse and condone and tolerate the high-handed and murderous conduct of the trusts. It seems as though Christianity Itself were Inebriated with this covetous exhalation. Patriotism and spirituality and the moral sense seem to be bribed by the devilish hope of sharing the blood money. Christianity is more seriously under mined by our public tolerance of the crimes of the trusts than by the crimes themselves. Tolerance of evil is the most immoral influence in the world. To be witnesses of the confiscation of property by the trusts, of the wholesale and unprec edented bribery by the trusts, of the plun der of the public by the trusts, of the business assassinations by the trusts, of the political murders by the trusts, of the breaking of the laws by the trusts to be witnesses of these.

GHUKCH AVIPKS OUT DEBT. Congregation of Sunnyside M. E. Subscribes Liberally for Purpose. Bishop David H. Moore, resident bishop, was present yesterday mornlnpr at the ser vices In Sunnyside Methodist Church, and preached on the subject, "The Deity of Christ." It was a plain presentation of the doctrine of the divinity .of Christ. Among other things the bishop declared that if Christ was not God, then he was both an impostor and an evil man. The sermon waa very brief to give time for an appeal to the congregation to raise money to pay off the church debt and make preparations for a modern edifice to be erected at Sunnyside. Bishop Moore and Dr. Ford, the pastor, took charge, and in a few minutes se cured subscriptions to the amount of $1200, to assist in paying off a debt caused by the purchase of more ground for the pro posed new church. Trie debt was $i500. The ladies assumed $500, and beside the large sum that was raised at the morn ing service, at the evening service when -Bishop Moore again preached, practically the whole amount was secured.
