13 THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 190T. DEMOCRATIC TIC I TS THOMAS Faithful Think He Will Be Forced Into the Mayor alty Race. CONSIDER DR. LANE OUT Jef fersonlans Construe Latter' l'n broken Silence as Tacit Refusal of Honor C. E. S. Wood Men tioned, but Will Xot Run. Another day has rolled around, set the Democratic leaders have not heard fi-om Mayor I-ano. The postman made his reg ular rounds yesterday, but "The letter that they longed for never came," and the whcol horses of the party spent an other busy day speculating as to Mayor Lane's intentions. Some of the leaders have taken Mayor Lane's silence as posi tive proof of the truth of the rumor that he will not be a candiate for re election. It really is surprising how sen. oral this belief is. Yesterday one Demo crat, who declares his information came from a man who was close to the Mayor, declared that the "Little Doctor" would not be a candidate and gave two reasons: one that the -Mayor's health is such that he Is of the opinion that he cannot stand the strain of another term In office and the other that his interests in Alaska mill soon demand all of his time and take him out of the city. On the proposition that even if Mayor Lane does write a letter to the committee that waited on him. It will not lie satis factory to the brethren, the Democratic leaders arc still skirmishing for a proml ntnt Democrat to lead the hosts to vic tory in June. The man most talked of, of course, is George H. Thomas, but yes terday the name of C. B. S. Wood was mentioned for the Mayoralty. It Is un derstood that no committee lias been to call on Colonel Wood, but the name was passed about as a feeler. To certain leaders of the party lawyer Wood would be most acceptable, but the committee that looks forward to railing upon Mr. Wood can save its time, for he stated last nipht to an Oregonian re porter that he would not be a candidate. "1 feel grateful, of course, for the honor that the Democrats are willing to confer upon me." said he, "but 1 simply cannot afford to become a candidate. It would call for the sacrifice of all my personal business, for the charter demands this, and this is something I cannot consent to." Thomas Apparently Is "It." This once more puts the Democratic romination up to Mr. Thomas, and unless there is a switch and Mr. Thomas abso. lutely refuses to come out as a candi date, he will be the man from the Demo cratic ranks that will fight it out with Thomas C. Devlin. John U. Coffey. Colonel Charles McDonell. Louis Zimmerman or some other one of the Republicans talked of for Mayor. Just now there is every Indication that the big struggle for Republican- honors at the primaries will he between Mr. Coffey and Mr. Devlin. Coffey seems to have the call among the labor orzanlzations. So far his candidacy has received the Indorsement of the union teamsters, barbers, freighthandlers and lonRshoremen and the federated Trades. In behalf of a candidate who thus far has not openly declared himself, Coffey's friends are extremely active. They have made a pretty thorough canvass of the city, have felt out the voters and are convinced, so they say. that if Coffey will run he will win In the primaries. Devlin's friends, on the other hand, are equally confident, and say that there is no one in the race but Devlin. Colonel McDonell's supporters are equally san guine. Naturally the fight for the Mayoralty will be the absorbing one in the coming .-ampalgn, yet the battles that will be fought for seats in the Council will b almost as interesting. John Annand will be a candidate for re-election as Council man at larRe. He has already filed his eUtion. Fred T. Merrill is being talked of as a candidate for Councilman at large. George M. Ilyland also wilf be in the tight for Councilman at large. Bennett Wants Ke-cleitlon. Frank S. Bennett, one of the "retiring C'ouncilmen. Is going to try for re-election In the Eighth ward. There is also some talk that he may come out as a candi date for Mayor. John P. Sharkey said positively yesterday that he would not he a candidate for re-election as Council men at large. "Not me. I've had ?nough," was the way he put his answer to the direct question. The Councilmen to be elected next June ail will serve tour years. This is given In many quarters as a reason for the appearance of so many candidates. Jt is also given out as a reason why several of the retiring Councilmen are anxious to succeed themselves. BIDS FOR STREET WORK Kxecutlve Board Receives Tenders on Repairs and Machinery. At tha maetlng of the Executive Board yesterday afternoon It was voted to ask the Council to make an appropriation sufficient to employ three linemen to care for the police and fire-alarm telephone system. It was declared that the two linemen now employed have too much tvtirk to do. Hids for repairing several streets were opened. One of these bids, from the Jacohsen-Bade Company, contained live bids and only one check. In explanation a representative of the company slated that the bid was for consecutive construc tion work on one street, therefore it was understood that only one check was neces sary. The matter was referred to the committee on city construction, as also were the bids. Bids were also received from three firms for furnishing the city with four sprink ling wagons and two street-sweeping ma chines. Heall & Co. supniltted two bids for the sprinklers, one for $140 and the other for 11390. For the street-sweeping machines they asked The Indiana Road Machine Co. asked 11452 for the wagons and JS50 for the sweepers, while Studebaker Bros, bid $144 for the wagons and $576 for the sweepers. 8. C. Friendly was awarded damages in the sum of JT on account of a collision which occurred last September between a runaway team of the street-cleaning de partment and his rig. Ha had asked 110. of this being for the hire of a rig that took him home after the collision. The board thought Friendly should have walked. Blast Injuries Prove Fatal. OREGON CITY, Or..

Local officials of the Harriman system are unwilling even to predict when the operation of its trains between this city aivd San Francisco on schedule time can me resumed. Not only is the train service blocked, but telegraphic communication also is seriously interfered with and all efforts to get information from any point between Ashlnnd and Redding., where Hoods did their greatest damage to the company's tracks, have failed. The ope ration of regular trains can scarcely be resumed within a week. In the meantime passengers from Port land to San Francisco are being sent over the O. R. & N. and the Oregon Short Line via Ogden and Sacramento. Last n'ght loO passengers left this city for San Francisco by that route. The Port land officers of the Harriman system last night received a telegram from San Fran cisco stating that all Portland passengers from that city are being sent via Ogden. People holding tickets for San Francisco were returned to Portland yesterday, after being carried as far south as Ash land, only to find it impossible to reach San Francisco. The price of their tickets was refunded to those who desired, while passengers who Insisted on reaching their destination, were sent out last night over the O. R. & X. via Ogden. The same arrangement is being followed by the Pullman Company, which is honor ing via Ogden all berth reservations that were issued from Portland to San Fran cisco. The Southern Pacific for the present has annulled trains Nos. IS and J4, 15 and 16. and until the company can restore its through schedule, but two day trains will be operated. Train So. 11 will leave Port land daily at 8:30 A. M. and run to Ash land, returning as Train No. 12. The Cot tage Grove Local.

POLICE MUST0BEY LAW Ciller Grilzmaclier Says Tlicy Shall Not Asia nil Prisoners. A general order issued yesterday by Chief of Police Gritsmacher. charges that brutal .and unjustifiable assaults on citi Eens under arrest' have been made by Portland policemen in times past, and plainly states that in the future such violations of the law will be brought to the attention of the Police Commission. It Is understood that none but members of the plain clothes staff will be allowed to strike and abuse, except in self-defense, prisoners without fear of the com mission. Chief Gritzmacher does not mention the distinction in his general order, but the order is so interpreted by many police officers for the reason that onlv a 'few weeks ago Detective Clifford R. Hellyer, while questioning a prisoner in the office of Chief Gritzmacher, became angry and dealt the captive a stinging blow in the face. Hellyer was preparing to follow up his first blow with another, but was stopped by captain Bruin, who stood by. After the assault. Captain Bruin was asked if Hellyer's act constituted a breach of the rules. Bruin replied that it did. He declared at the time that lie would iile a charge. When Chief Griiistnacher issued his gen eral order yesterday, inquiry was made as to the case against Detective Hellyer. Captain Bruin said he laid the case be fore Chief Gritzmacher, who pronounced it trivial. PERSONALMENTION. Mrs. L H. F. Addlton. president of the State W. C. T.

JS Street Railway Company Re fuses to Reconsider Its Former Decision. , UNION CONFESSES DEFEAT Committee From Federated Trades Council Presents Petition in Its Bcltalf Central Body Asked to Boycott Corporation. What amounts to a confession of the failure of the streetcar strike was made yesterday morning when the Portland Railway. Light & Power Company, at a conference with a committee from the Federated Trades Council refused point blank to reinstate the striking street car men. As a result, the. carmen's union at the .regular meeting of the Federated Trades Council last night sought to have a general boycott declared against the street railway company. The Trades Council refused to take such decisive action and voted to submit the question to a referendum vote of the different labor unions of the city that are affil iated with the central body. A general boycott against the street railway company would mean throwing out of employment a great majority" of the 6900 laborers of the city who are Iden tified with some one of the individual or ganizations of which the Federated Trades is composed. This was a greater step than the Council. the - cen tral body of all of the unions, desired to lake. It would have seriously crippled every local lr.dustry and business Inter est, since the Portland- Hallway. Light & Power Company furnishes elthtr light or power for practically every manufactur ing institution and many of the public buildings of the city. A boycott, ordered by ' the Federated Trades, would prevent any union man from working in a business, or about a building, or at a trade, in which elec tricity was used, either for lighting or power. The referendum vote as to wlieth'er or not a boycott shall be called will be taken In each union at its next meeting. As practically every union that is inter ested will have 'held a meeting during the ensuing week, it is expected the result of the vote will be announced at the regular meeting of the Federated Trades Council next Wednesday night. At 11 o'clock yesterday a committee from the Federated Trades Council, con sisting of John Long. H. Drew and Paul- ineus McDonald, waited on F. 1. h'ulier, General Manager of the traction depart ftient of the Portland Railway. Light & Power Company. -The committeemen ex plained that they had come as repre sentatives of the Federated Trades Coun cil, which had been asked to declare a boycott on the street railway company unless that company would aKree to the reinstatement of all employes that had gone out on strike. Manager Fuller's Answer. "So far as declaring a boycott against the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company is concerned," replied Manager Fuller to the committee, "the company is powerless to prevent any such, action if the Federation of Labor or any other organization decides to take such steps. The company's position has not changed since the beginning of the strike. We cannot and will not consent to take these men back. To do so would be a great Injustice to the men now in our employ, to the men that withdrew as strikers from the company's service, to the com pany itself and to the general public. The company cannot entertain any such a proposal, neither do we think that a single member of your committee, as a busi ness man. under the same circumstances, would think of taking a position other than that taken by our company." The strike was Initiated hy the street car men on December 15, and has been in what passes for progress a little more than three months. That it would prove successful has been seriously questioned from the beginning because of the half hearted way in which it was inaugurated. The presence of outsiders, who are said to have been responsible for Inaugurating the disturbance, has had' a tendency to deprive the carmen of what little public sympathy the movement received at the start. With the exception of a few daj;s In December, the strikers have been un able to interrupt the regular operation of the company's service. On the day the strike was ordeVed, a de mand was made of the company for an advance of 1 cent an hour in the wages of all platform men, including the recog nition of the union by the street railway company. This demand was made about 10:S0 A. M.. accompanied hy the informa tion that unless the request was acceded to by 3 P. M. the same day. the strike would be called. The streetcar officials refused to grant the advance and during the afternoon the strike was ordered. Voluntarily Raised Wages. A few weeks 'ago the company an nounced a voluntary increase averaging between 2 and 2ls cents an hour for all of Its streetcar employes. A few days later, a committee representing the strik ing carmen's union called at the office of Manager Fuller and presented a second demand as to wages. - asking that the wages of streetcar employes be, raised 5 cents an hour. Manager Fuller refused to receive this request or to treat in any way with the committee representing the strikers. This ended all efforts on the part of the strikers to interview the man agement of the street railway company until yesterday, when the committee, tin announced, called at the office of Manager Fuller, where it was cordially received. The interview lasted for about 13 minutes. The railway company repftrts the loss of 114 of a total of Tno men from all causes since the strike began. Of that number It is claimed only about 80 are affiliated with the carmen's union. ' A majority of the other 31 men left the em ploy of the company, it is contended by the streetcar officials, not as strikers, but partly because of intimidation and a de aire not to become Involved in the trou ble. Most of these men are said to have found other employment. FREEDOM IS HIS THEME Ilabbi Wise Preaches '-Great Sab bath"' Sermon at Beth Israel. At Temple Beth Israel last night Rabbi Jonah R. Wise delivered a ser mon on "The Shackles of Freedom," the occasion being the beginning of what is known in the Jewish calendar as the "Great Sabbath." He said in part: "The Great Sabbath, the last in Egypt, and the first of liberty commemorates the beginning of freedom. It is best'descxibed by a reading of the verse in Exodus, which tells of the last supper to he eaten hurriedly, girded and shod, with the wan derer's; staff in hand. Such has been the REINSTATEMENT STRIKERS Abollinams THS QUEEN Contains its Pure Natural Carbonic Acid Gas which GREATLY IMPROVES DIGEST ION by acting as a Gastric Stimulant and Tonic. attitude of the Jew. ever prepared to wan der on. to seek a new home in the search for liberty. The liberty he wanted is the liberty we should seek; the opportunity to develop. "Freedom to the poor is useless. So we are debased and enslaved when we allow ourselves to fall fnto tho ruts of life, to slave for living from sunrise to sunset. No man is free, whose mind is bound only to the sordid rut. He is a free man. whose efforts increase his pow ers of happiness, whose increased mental life gives him more Joy in living, whose spiritual growth lifts him out of the Kgyptian bondage of the sordid to the boon of free, untrammeled life." MR. RADER IS ABSOLVED Broughcr Says Tliere Is No Trouble Between CliureheH. PORTlND. Marrh 22. (To the EJitor.) TVi-mit me to say just a fw words in an?wr to a communication that appeared In The Oreonlan from "one of the member of the Haalo-Street Church." Those who read the abstract of Mr. Rader'a aermen last Sunday morning, believed that he waa making an attack upon om church that has a crowd. The church he had in mind, presumably, was in Portland. Button or aome other city. Most people believed that he wan "taking a shot' at the pastor oT the White Temple and his methods. Everyone who spoke to me about It believed that eu?h was the case, for we make an effort to have a crowd at the White Temple, and generally succeed. What I want to my. however, b this: Mr. Rader kindly called at my home and explained that he did- not have the White Temple in mind, and that he regretted that anyone had po Interpreted his sermon. His explanation was promptly accepted, and I assured Mr. Rader that he im1 bis church could count on the co-operation of the White Temple and Its pas! or in everything they undertook for the establishment of God' kingdom In the world. There U no ill feeling- between Mr. Rader and myself, and I .am sure there will be none, be tween the members of our two churches. I have never had a word of criticism for the methods of any church or preacher. Everyone muft do his work in his own way. There are thousands of people In this city who never darken the door of any church. I have been making an honest effort to reach the non-church-golng claes. I have not used the meth ods that I have seen prove a failure in other churches, but I have sought to adapt my bait to the kind of nh I am trying to catch. : I have been severely criticized for getting- out of the rut and adopting new methods. Those who were opposed to the Innovation, have cried "sensational." The gamblers, the saloon keeper, and some politicians have tried to impugn my motives and misrepresent my pur pose. These things have not bothered me In the least. I have not sought to please myself nor my critics. I have simply sought to do what I believed to be my duty and to have the approval of my conscience and Almighty God. In thie I have had the confidence and co operation of my church. Until someone ehowa me a better method for reaching the masse, and preaching Christ to the multitudes. I shall go on doing as 1 have been doing, with out fear of what friend or foe may say. For years preachers and churches have disputed the question, "How to reach the people." I have stopped talking about it and gone to do ing it. Let those who object show me a bet ter method for reaching' the people and ac complishing the same results. If 1 can use It I will accept It. J. WHITCOMB BROL'GHER. PUBLISHERS WIN AT BUTTE Printers Agree to Return to Work at Old Wage Scale. BUTTE. Mont., March 22.
