AGAINSTKEWTREATY
Seattle Club Would Not Debar
Japanese.
RESOLUTIONS ARE PASSED
Chamber of Commerce Declares That
Proposed Immigration Regula
tion Would Tend to Disrupt
the Present Relations.
SEATTLE. WMh., March 20. (Special.)
Th Seattle Chamber of Commerce to
day adopted resolutions declaring that the
-proposed Immigration treaty with Japan
threatens the commercial and social rela
tions between the two countries and Is
an unjust discrimination against the Jap
anese in favor of European immigrants.
The important features of the resolution
which will be sent to the President are:
"It is the opinion of the Seattle Cham
ber of Commerce that a majority ot the
people of the Pacific Coast are not In
favor of any immigration law that will
treat the people of Japan differently from
the way in which we treat the people of
any European country. We recognize
that the United States and the Empire of
Japan are bound together by ties of trade,
commerce and old friendship, which in
the past have proved of great advantage
to both countries, and if preserved,, con
tain a sure pledge of still greater benefits
ior the future.
"We believe that any Immigration
treaty which would discriminate against
Japan by denying to the people of the
country ordinary rights or privileges
granted to the people of other civilized
countries would be uncalled for and would
be detrimental to the trade and' commerce
of the Pacific Coast and by checking the
growth, development and prosperity of
this section, would tend directly to nar
row the field of employment for our own
people and decrease the demand for our
own labor."

ordered through the Attorney-General to
compel the Columbia Southern Irrigating
Company to carry out its contract with
the settlers of that county. Charges have
been filed with the land board to the
effect that 'the irrigating company has

TO SETTLE LABOR TROUBLE
Agreement Promised Between Seattle
Union and Master Builders.
SEATTLE, Wash.. March 20. (Special.)
The executive committee of the Build
ing Trades Assembly held a protracted
and secret meeting tonight, and will be
prepared to meet the Master Builders'
Association tomorrow or Friday. The
executive committee of the labor organi
zations is not entirely agreed upon a pro
gramme, but it is believed that the two
associations can compromise and adjust
the fight.
Union leaders say there will be no pro
tracted struggle and the master builders
are beginning to believe that they can
get a satisfactory contract with the
unions. I.a'bor leaders declare tonight
that the master builders could have had
a contract without the lockout. The pro
posal for an understanding lasting
through the Alaska-Yukon-Faelilc Expo
sition is the one that the, labor leaders
say they wanted a year ago, and they
insist that they will meet the master
builder on satisfactory terms. Union
men- say that enough work has been kept
up to give a portion at least of their men
steady employment, and they will try to
adjust the differences with the master
builders this week.

BAKER C1TT. Or., March 20. (Spe
clal.) As a result of the war being
waged between co-operative and pri
vste Interests, two creamery plants

When the people who own the
i-reameries t Haines and Richland
discovered that Andrew Wllkie. Jr.,
representing the Hastings Industrial
Company of Chicago, was here to sell
a creamery plant to a co-operative or
ganisation, the war was opened and
has ' been waged ever since. The
Citizens' League has extended its 1
dorsemrnt to both interests.
Mr. Wilkle is under contract to erect
the new creamery within 60 days.
This he will do at his own liability,
the money for the plant to be paid by
local people after It is installed.

LIGHT BOXD ISSUE IS VALID
Becision in Case to Prevent Invest
ment of School Funds.
OLYMPIA, Wash., March 20. (Special.)
The State Supreme Court decided .today
that the stWO.COO Seattle light bond issue
was valid. This is the termination of a
suit brought in the name of the state
by the Attorney-General against the
Board or land Commissioners to prevent
the purchase by the board of the bonds
as an investment for the state permanent
school fund.
The chief point raised in the proceed
ings was that the ordinance providing for
the election on the bonds was introduced
at-we Council meeting and passed one
week later by the Council. It was con
tended that the law provided for but
one meeting a month by the Council and
that the second meeting was an ad
journment of the first. This, It was ar
gued, would bring the matter within the
nhibitlon that a special election ordi
nance must not be introduced and passed
at the same meeting.
The Supreme Court holds that the sec
ond meeting was not an adjourned meet
ing, and that anyway the question is
not' a vital one, as the main issue is:
Was proper notice of election given and
did the voters- authorize the issue? Both
of these questions are answered affirm
atively. '-..'"

YIELDS TQ PEOPLE
Council Agrees to Submit Free
Water Amendment, "
VOTERS TO PASS ON IT
Legislative Body Decides to Overlook
Technical Irregularities Details
Will Be Settled . at the
, Meeting Today.
Despite technical irregularities which
threatened to prevent the charter amend
ment known as the "free-water bill"
from being submitted at the June election
the voters will have the opportunity to
pass on the measure. The Council yes
terday passed a resolution, introduced by
Annand, declaring that It was the sense
of the assembly that the election be or
dered, but action on the bill itself was
delayed until the McNary enabling act.
prescribing a procedure for the filing of
Initiative petitions, shall have ' been
passed upon, which will be done this aft
ernoon, when an adjourned meeting will
be held.
W. R. McGarry. C. E. S. Wood and B. 3.
J. McAllister spoke on behalf of the
measure and urged that the Council order
the election.- They said that even the
McNary enabling ordinance would not
remedy the technical defects. They said
the Council was not .to determine wheth
er the bill was right or wrong, but was
duty-bound to recognize thousands of cit
izens who had signed the petition.
The speakers wanted the Council to
order the election before the passage of
the McNary ordinance. They said the
petition had been circulated according to
the precedent established before the
U'Ren law was enacted by the Legis
lature. . They desired the Council -to give
it legal recognition before the McNary
ord'nance went into effect.
The resolution ordering the election
would probably have passed had not Gray
raised the point that. If adopted before
the McNary ordinance, it might conflict
with the bill of the central water com
mittee that also will be presented to the
voters. He thought that both measures
should be on equal footing.
Hold Lengthy Discnssion.
Councilmen and citizens discussed the
question for three solid hours. No one
Beemed to have a clear conception of
what he was arguing about. Frank J.
Perkins, secretary of the central water
committee, finally took a hand in the dis
cussion, saying that th free-water bill
would have an unfair advantage if adopt
ed before the other measure. Annand
than introduced his resolution, which
pledged the Councilmen to order the elec
tion on the free-water bill. It was car
ried with a rush.
The McNary ordinance then came up.
and another prolonged discussion ensued.
It provides that Initiative petitions must
be filed within GO days before election,
but Kellaher wanted it amended to read
46 days in order to give those who are
circulating petitions more time. His mo
tion was voted down. If the McNary
ordinance should pass as it now stands
there remains about 15 days more in
which to file petitions.
Belding wanted the ordinance amend
ed to read 90 days, which would shut out
the petitions which have not been filed.
The Council would still have 60 days in
which to act, but if his amendment had
carried the Council would have been able
to decide upon all the petitions and could
have approved or rejected them at its
pleasure. The Councilmen resolved to
take more time for consideration, and
adjourned until this afternoon at 2
o'clock.
Free Employment Bureau.
The Council ordered that the question
of the establishment of a free employ
ment bureau be submitted to the people.
A charter amendment is necessary. It
is alleged that innocestt loggers and la
borers are often victims of "sharks,"
who collect fees from them and then
send them to places where there is no
work.
A resolution was passed authorizing the
city to accept a deed to the tract of land
on the Montavilla carline that will be
presented by Dr. S. A. Brown, and Dr.
E. C. Brown as a site of a detention
home for incorrigibles. Judge (Frazer
explained that, while the detention home
would be managed by the county, the
Browns wanted the land held in the
name of the city, so that in case the
buildings should be removed the ground
could be converted into playgrounds for
children.
SHEPHERD WIELDS GAVEL
Presides Over Council Meeting in
Place of Mayor, Who Is 111.
Mayor Lane was ill with ptomaine
poisoning yesterday and Councilman Shep
herd, who is still withholding his resigna
tion, occupied the chair at the Council.
It was the first time that Mayor Lane
has ever been absent from the Council
meetings.
Months ago when Shepherd announced
that he would resign he was elected
President of the Council out of courtesy.
But he did not reciprocate the courtesy
of the other members, who believed he
would hand in his resignation,, as he has
held fast to his job, and now it looks
as though he will not step out until his
term expires.
Shepherd had great fun with the gavel
yesterday. Whenever there was the least
confusion he would rap for order to show
his authority, and time and time again
he corrected Councilmen who attempted
to speak out of their turn. Every time
anyone referred to him as "Your Honor"
his face flushed with pride. In fact he
enjoyed his distinction as much as a
schoolboy elected chairman of a junior
debating society.
. Nearly every ordinance that came up
he examined personally and read aloud
to the Council. This is ordinarily done
by the reading clerks. He also voted on
every question that came up.
Shepherd will probably occupy the chair
again today, as Mayor Lane has been
very ill. Tuesday night the Mayor's con
dition was serious, but yesterday he zrew
better rapidly. He will probably be out
Tviimn a aay or two.

St. Johns Council Tuesday night, with
ten of his pupils, to give the latter an

school have organized a Council, withVa
Mayor and other officers. It was to seek
instruction that the "school city govern

Councilmeit were not favorably impressed
with what they saw and heard. On the
contrary, it is understood that the school

INSANITY AND CRIME.
Paper by Dr. Williamson Before
Local Medical Society.
A meeting of the City and County Med
ical Society was held last night in the
Chamber of Commerce auditorium. The
feature of the meeting was a paper on
"Dementia Preacox as a Defense for
Crime," read by Dr. W. T. Williamson.
The paper stimulated a great deal ot in
terest, and was especially appropriate be
cause of the great Interest in the subject
aroused by the Thaw trial. Dr. William
son spoke in part as follows: ,
"Brain storm, if by that is meant ln
pulslve insanity, may well be considered
as a theory subject to much abuse, in
that a man may be sane enough just be
fore and just after the commission of a
crime, and yet have been irresistibly and
unavoidably compelled to its perpetration.
"A Judge of the Supreme Court of
Washington reoently stated In substance
that he questioned the reasonableness of
the claim that a man became Insane jus
as he grabbed the pistol with which he
shot his victim, and immediately there
after regained his insanity. But however
repellant such a picture is to us, medical
truth compels the frank admission that
it may be found in fact, although, fortu
natley, so rarely as to 'be classed as a
medical curiosity.
"There are such things as emotional
etorms. In dementia preacox. They may
be found In some other conditions, as in
neurasthenia and hysteria. But in the
manifestations there are radical and es
sential differences. The hysterical and
neurasthenic ebullitions have usually
been preceded by introspective or other
gloom, accompanied by apparent and un
derstandable motives: but in dementia
praecox, the absence of motive, the ab
rupt Independence of prelude or sequence
of action, and the Immediate indifference
to the act committed are characteristic.
The act is incongruous in its associations
and does not co-ordinate in the mind with
the act, or with ordinary purpose or with
satisfactory results. Such an act as that
committed by Harry Thaw, for which he
is now on trial, is by no means charac
teristic of dementia praeoox, for just
these reasons: That if the reasons for
which he slew bis enemy were imaginary,
delusive conceptions, his conduct could
have been condoned by paranoia: but
such a belief is neither suspected nor al
leged. "What can. we say of the experts em
ployed in that case? The jury system is
beautiful In principle, antagonistic to
tyranny, strong in the elements of econ
omy and fairness, just what a Washing
ton or a -Lincoln would commend.
'Jurymen cannot understand, cannot be
expected to understand the import and
significance of much testimony, such as
that of a technical character, for in
stance; and the courts have wisely pro
vided that persons specially skilled or
learned in such special or technical knowl
edge may be called on oath to testify as
to the value, the meaning and the In
terpretation of those features which
otherwise would be unintelligible or cha
otic. The, limit of the field of the ex
pert witness then evidently Is to make
plain to the comprehension of the juror
such points as otherwise from lack of
such special knowledge could not be un
derstood merely to Interpret the values,
explain causes and effects of conditions
presented, and proclaim the slgnincance
of facts adduced in evidence. They should
make the obscure or technical points so
clear to the jurymen that they may as
similate them with other .facts already
understood. In order to reach judgment.
'It is not creditable to the honesty or
integrity of an"expert witness to have it
said that he carefully protected the in
terests of his eide during his examination.
for then he turns from being a mere wit
ness and becomes an advocate: he turns
his back on scientific truth andi becomes
a nerjurer. It is a sad commentary on
professional respect and standing that
physicians on the respective staes win
give diametrically opposite answers to the
same hypothetical question, ana tnereDy
hold the general profession up to public
ridicule and contempt.
'The crimes, then, that a demented per
son may commit without , responsibility
are only those impulsive and unpremeai
tated acts that project themselves across
his mental horizon as does the meteor
across the sky, -bursting unexpectedly out
of the darkness from no one knows
wnence, and quickly vanishing in the
gloom, extinguished and forgotten, no on
knows whither.

cape the consequence of their miscon

Attorney, the cases were dismissed yes

Many Divorces by Multnomah
Courts Invalid.
DECREES NOT OF RECORD
Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Tubbs Find
Themselves Still Married, Though
the Wife's Complaint Was
Granted in 1890.
More than 100 couples who have gone
through the divorce mill of Multnomah
County and fancy themselves legally di
vorced are in reality still married. Many
of these men and women have re
married and the domestic and property
tangles which this fact may involve is
bewildering to consider. This state of
affairs, due to defective divorce records,
became generally known yesterday after
noon for the first time.
That the list of irregularly divorced
couples easily includes 200 men and wo
men Is now known, and the total may
reach several times that number, as a
result of the thorough investigation of
the Circuit Court records, which is now
being made.
Neglect in completing the records is re
sponsible for the faulty divorce decrees.
The blame generally lies with the attor
neys in the various cases, who have failed
to present the divorce papers for record.
According to a Supreme Court ruling
made several years ago a divorce does
not become effective until "this record is
filed. The mere announcement from the
bench that the parties to a suit are di
vorced does not suffice. After being
granted a divorce by the presiding Judge
in open court a couple may leave the
courtroom and continue to live together
as man and wife without remarriage and
without having the court's decision set
aside. '
The first vlct'.ms of this technicality
appeared yesterday forenoon and througb
th'eir experience it later became known
how extensive is the divorce tangle. The
case in question has remained undis
covered during 17 years, during which
time Hilda A. Tubbs and Tona A. Tubbs,
the parties concerned, have believed them
selves divorced. The divorce was granted
to Mrs. Tubbs In 1890 on the grounds of
desertion. It is alleged that the clerk
of the court neglected to file the decree
and that Mrs. Tubbs in consequence has
been deceived as to her legal status.
The status of the case was called to
the attention of Judge Sears by Attorney
Idleman, who asked that the decree be
placed on record and the divorce made
regular, "now for then," as the lawyers
say. The petition was allowed.
It is believed that attorneys In many
cases have failed to file these decrees
because of the failure of clients to pay
fees. Many instances are cited where
clients, after getting their divorce, have
decamped without so much as saying
"Thank you" to the lawyer In the case.
Whereupon the lawyer would retaliate
by withholding the decree and there was
no divorce.
Whatever the cause may be. there are
scores of incomplete divorces, capable of
creating endless litigation, and many of
those who have reason to believe they
are divorced but are not sure of it will
probably make haste to consult the rec
ords.
NANKEVIIiTjE CHARGES PIRACY
Says the Lyric Produced "Human
Hearts" Without Permission.
Keating & Flood, managers of the
Lyric Theater, have ben sued for $2800
damages, by W. E. Nankevllle, a the
atrical manager, for presenting "Hu
man Hearts," the week: of October 21,
1906, without permission of the owner.
Attorney John F. Logan filed the
complaint with the clerk of the United
States Circuit Court, yesterday after
noon. This is the first case of the
kind to be filed in a court under the
new law, In this state.
Kankeville accuses the. Lyric man
agers of piracy, but the latter say this
is not a fact, as they secured and
produced "Human Hearts" in the belief
that they had a right to do so, by pay
ing the usual royalty. Nankevllle al
leges in the complaint that the produc
tion of the play by the Lyric people
interfered with the success of his own
road company, when he put on the
same drama at the Empire theater.
"Human Hearts" was sold to Nanke
vllle for a song. Nankevllle is a crip
pie, and says he needs the money
which he seeks as damages from the
Lyric management.

Prof. Wm. Rickards, City Portland, Oregon, March IS.
Dear Sir: I wish to add my testimony to the marvelous cure of
paralysis by the use of the Electro Radiator.
I was paralyzed in the entire right side, I had no use of my arm
or ler, and my face was badly affected. By using: your Electro Radi
ator I have been restored to complete health, and I wish to speak in
the highest terms of the efficacy of the Radiator in cui-injr disease.

Foot E. Alder St., Nickum & Kelly.
The RAdiator has never failed to give absolute satisfaction. It
has been thoroughly proven by thousands who now tell of its lifegiv
ing force and to the cure of all Rheumatism and Chronic Nervous
Diseases, when hot springs and all known remedies had failed. Sev
eral of these have suffered as long as 25 years and had given np all
hope of ever being cured ; some had given up for the last eight years,
but are now cured. Ask for their names and addresses, as they live
right in Portland. Am giving Tree Trial Treatments to all suffering
through sickness, chronic or temporary.

J. F. Watts, Garretz pleaded not guilty.
The date of the trial was not set.
Garretz's personal appearance is not
inharmonious with the charge against
him. He Is lowbrowed, with an imper
fectly shaped head, a morbid cast of
countenance, heightened by a barroom
bully braggadocio expression. During
the reading of the information charg
ing him with murder, the young man
did not look at tne court, but kept his
eyes glued on the floor. In fact, the
floor was the one object of interest to
him from the time he entered the court
room until he was led out by Deputy
Sheriffs after the arraignment.

PARALYSIS
W. J. Kelly, of the firm of
Nickum & Kelly, this city,
is no longer a sufferer.
He was cured with the
Electro Radiator.
After suffering paralysis of
one side and being almost help
less, he is fully restored to
health, with complete use of the
affected side. He tells the story
in the following letter:
He did not enter any plea when the
charge was read, and remained awk
wardly silertt, with his head hung, until
his lawyer arose and stated that tha
pica would be that of not guilty.
