KEEN FIGHT IS GOING ON
Yellow Journalist' Crowd Clashes
With Rival Union Orators and
Phonographs Are Taking Part
In the Latest Political War.
TOPEKA. Kan., June 2. (Special.)
W illiam Randolph Hearst's American So
ciety of Equity, which, in the guise of a
farmers' and laborers' organization, is
in reality a part of Hearst's political
machine, Is fighting for supremacy in
Kansas with the Farmers' Co-Operative
Union, which is in reality a union of
farmers, pure and simple, with tremen
dous political possibilities. Unable to
dominate this vast and growing body,
Hearst, through agents, has organized his
own "farmers" society. The American
Society of Equity, the Hearst concern,
takes In all classes having a vote or ex
pecting to have one. The Farmers' Co
operative Union takes In none but farm
ers. At Emporia the organizers yesterday
came into head-on collision. Judge
Theron Fisk, representing the Farmers'
Union, and ex-State Superintendent of
Instruction Gaines, stood up before a
great gathering of farmers and called
each other liars and other choice names.
Rivalry between the two organizations is
most bitter and Intense and betwen them
they arc gathering In every voter In the
state.
The Hearst plan Is systematic and Ills
agents are building up a powerful ma
chine. Every evening a string of school
house meetings are held, at which orators
and phonographs drone out speeches to
the effect that the money power is
holding in abject serfdom the men of
Kansas, also their women and children.
Fiery literature of the Hearst brand Is
widely circulated.
In order to check the Hearst movement,
the Farmers' Union has been holding its
meetings one night In advance of the
advertised Hearst gatherings. This has
proven very successful in Lyon County
until yesterday when the rival factions
met at the Courthouse and the clash
came. The Farmers' Union is chiefly a
Southern movement, very strong In the
South and spreading In the "West, but
Hearst, who Is not popular In the South,
cannot control It, henca his rival organi
zation and the terribly upset condition
In Kansas.
COOKER ACTIVE IN IRELAND
REPORTED JIE WANTS TO EN
TER PARLIAMENT.
Gives Financial Aid to Nationalists,
and In Other Ways Identifies
Himself With Party.
LONDON, Juu,e 2. The newspapers are
reviving the report that Richard Croker
cherishes an ambition to enter the British
Parliament as an Irish Nationalist mem
ber. Recently Mr. Croker has taken an
Interest In the work of the Nationalists,
made contributions to the party funds,
lent automobiles for electioneering pur
poses and Identified himself with the
party by appearing on the platform at
the recent convention In Dublin. It Is
doubtful, however, if Mr. Croker would
be willing to forswear his American
citizenship, and more doubtful If he could
Hud a constituency desiring to take htm
up as a candidate, or if the party leaders
will welcome the acquisition of a poli
tician of such a masterful nature.
Another of the Irish Nationalists re
marked to the Associated Press that the
party would not welcome any attempt
to Introduce "American machine" methods
Into Its policies.
Mr. Croker's health, moreover. Is a bar
rier to his re-embarking in active work
of any sort. He shows the weight of his
t-t years, although he is still vigorous.
His recent illness was more severe than,
published reports indicated. The doctors
pronounced it Blight's disease, and at
one time almost gave up hope for his
recovery, but they finally declared him
cured, although they warned him that he
must take greater care of himself In
the future.
TO ANNUL EMPRESS' CLAIMS
French People Object to Her Taking
Personal Property From Museum.
PARIS. June 2. The ill feeling of the
French masses toward the former Em
press Eugenie, widow of Napoleon III,
has been strikingly Illustrated. The ex
Empress, who since her return from ex
ile has divided her time between the
Motel Continental in Paris, whence she
could look over the gardens of the Tuil
lerles. where she once reigned supreme,
and the watering resorts of Riviera, some
months ago, brought suit to recover a
large number of articles now housed in
the French National Museums, on the
ground that they had been the personal'1
property of her husband and were of "no
historic and little intrinsic value."
The case attracted no attention at the
time, and practically went by default, but
recently when the court decided In the
Empress" favor, a tremendous outcry was
raised. The popular newspapers took
the matter up. the Empress was called
an "adventuress." and many 'of the old
stories prejudicial to her fame were re
vived. The Matin Investigated the Empress
claim and found that the articles given
her by the court Included gifts to
Napoleon III bp Sovereigns and for
eign states, priceless tapestries, paintings
and other objects of art, and, what most
aroused the ire of the populace, some
relics of the great Napoleon. The ex
perts employed by the paper appraised
the value of the "plunder" at close to a
million dollars. The result is that the
government. In deference to the clamor,
has formally entered an appeal against
the decision.

Good Crops In Willapa Valley.
RAYMOND, Wash., June 2. The crop
conditions of the Willapa Valley were
never better than at the present time, and
Indications are there will be a record
breaking crop. As the season Is a'ready
far advanced. It is not likely that any
thing will occur to change results before
time for the crop to be marketed. The
fruit has developed wonderfully since the
recent rains and with the continuance of
line weather will be plentiful and cheap.
Strawberries in this locality are begin
ning to ripen and within a week there
will be plenty of them in market. Few
berries are shipped in at present and they
are high-priced and not of first-class
quality. The supply of early vegetables
Is not equal to the demand, but every
thing polnt9 to an abundance In this line
in a very short time.

PRICE OF BEEF IS UP
Chicago Consumers Forced to
Pay Two-Cent Raise.
MEAT TRUST IN A ,.,R0W
Packers Refuse to Buy Cows and
Heifers Until After Inspection by
Government and the Cost De
ducted From Purchase Price.
CHICAGO, June 2. (Special.) High
er prices for all grades of beef are in
prospect, and steaks and roasts are to
cost the consumer more money. The
enforcement of the rule by the big Chi
cago packens that Incoming cows and
heifers must be sold to them only sub
ject to post mortem examination is
causing the trouble, and the deadlock
which has been in force between the
commission men and the packers dur
ing -the past week promises to hold on
indefinitely.
Meanwhile, with the falling off in
receipts, prices are going up. Receipts
for last week fell off to 49,000 heads,
as against 60,600 the week before. The
result was that before the week closed
prices for dressed beef had risen to a
point higher than any year since 1902,
with the excention of one week in 190R
The averaVe price for the week for beef
on the hoof for good cattle was $5.80,
as against $5.65 the week prevlbus.
The margin of difference increased
as the process of turning out the fin
ished meat market products progressed,
so that by the time the retailer -secured
his beef, the price was up $1
per 100 pounds, or 1 cent a pound. This
advance came out of the ultimate con
sumer in the way of at least 1 cents
to 2 cents a pound, and the chances
are that the figures will go up.
The situation in Chicago is reflected
to a considerable extent in other cities.
Sioux City, Omaha, St. Louis, St. Jo
seph and Kansas City commission men
are standing with the Chicago ' com
mission houses -in refusing to sell to
the packers, and about the only mar
kets which observe the rule of sale
subject to post mortem examination
are Fort Worth and St. Paul, which
are comparatively small centers of dis
tribution. "DO TOO MUCH BUSINESS"
Grandmaster Morrlssey, of B. of R.
T., Discusses Wrecks.
CLEVELAND, O., June 2. Grand
Master P. H. Morrlssey, of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen, ,in discuss
ing railway wrecks and the cause and
remedy for the same, said today:
"There Is too much business for the
railroads; too much hurry in connect
ing trains and too few employes to in
sure the proper degree of safety to em
ploye and traveler.
"The state railways of Germany em
ploy more than three times the num
ber of men per mile than we do, and
none can say this does not contribute
to safety. Every advance in wages
here is met by counter-economies in op
eration, such as taking, off men, etc
The American railway managers as a
class are capable and practical men. It
is not their fault that things are as
they are. It is the fault of the system.
If they do not get the results of opera
tion, they are likely to be sidetracked.
What, in my opinion, the American rail
way systems need to insure greater
safety is more men to man and Inspect
the trains, to guard the switches and
semaphores and to patrol the tracks."
HAS TITIAN'S "ST. JEROME"
St. Louis. Man Got Valuable Old
Painting for Pittance of $100.
ST. LOUIS, June 2. Edward Sells, of
St. Louis, believes he has Identified a
painting he purchased a year ago for
less than $100 as the famous "St. Jerome"
pained by Titian about 1531. . No trace
of the painting has been had since about
1629. Sells purchased the picture from
Allison K. Stewart, a St. Louis mining
engineer to whom it was given In 1900
by a Padre in the mountains of Honduras
after Stewart had given him a liberal
offering of silver.
The painting itself shows it is very old.
The canvas is handmade and filled with
red clay, after the customs of the
Renaissance period. St. Louis artists say
the painting bears several defects peculiar
to Titian's work. They estimate the value
of the painting, if It is the Titian "St.
Jerome." to be about $100,000.

GOLD FOUND ON UPPER SATSOP
Prospector ricks Up Nuggets on
River Gravel Bars.
MONTESANO. Wash., June 2. (Spe
cial.) An old prospector came into Mon
tesano during the week, bringing with
him some splendid gold nuggets which
he had picked up on a gravel bar on . the
Upper Satsop River. These were taken
to a Jeweler, who thoroughly tested them,
and pronounced them of fine quality.
From all that could be learned the
miner, who refused to give his name,
was coming down from a prospecting
tour along the southern- foothills of the
Olympias, and when he reached the up
per Satsop he covered some of the ex
posed gravel bars and struck a stretch of
what indicated placer sand. He picked
up several exposed nuggets, one of them
weighing over four pennyweights.
The exact location could not be learned
but the old residents around here say
they have always known that good colors
could be found almost anywhere along
the Satsop.

Syndicate Proposes to Supply Cen

CENTRALIA, Wash., June 2. (Spe

ney, representing a syndicate of capi

interest of his clients. On Monday he
visited the Commercial Club and out
lined his plans to that organization.
His clients, he eaid, want to inaugur
ate a water, light and power system In
Centralla, and intend to ask the city
for the necessary franchises.
The plans would necessitate pur
chasing all present rights that would
conflict with the new arrangements.
The intention is to-bring water down
from either the headwater of the
Skookumchuck or Chehalis Rivers, for
both power to generate electricity and
for drinking purposes. The proposition
will include the City of Chehalis. the
power plant being placed about midway
between the two cities.
Catches Large Steelhead Salmon.
Madras Pioneer.
Minnie Gomer, the 12-year-old daughter
of W. Gomer, caught an eight-pound
steelhead salmon In the Deschutes River
at the mouth of Crooked River one day
last week. The day previous her brother
Emanuel had hooked a large fish and had
been unable to land it alone, the fiBh
finally snapping the .line and escaping.
Next day the crowd was again fishing at
the same place, and Minnie Gomer cast
her line in at the spot where the big
fish had been hooked the day before. In
a very few minutes she had a strike and
had hooked a large fish, and with the as
sistance of her brother she finally suc
ceeded in landing it, when it was found
to be a steelhead salmon, 80 inches long
and weighing about eight pounds. It
was the same fish that had been
hooked the day before, the hook and line
still being in its mouth. The steelhead;
was lured from the bottom of the De
schutes both days by a bait of tempting
trout files. Steelhead. salmon are fre
quently caught in the Deschutes River
below the Sherar Falls, but they have
seldom been caught in the Deschutes
above that point.

want the Mayor to lecture. If the people
have yearning desires to see Mayor
Becker or actor Becker, Mr. Brady wants
them to lay their money down at the box
office. If the two can compromise upon the
lecture end of the contract. Mayor Becker
will probably show his really fine eyes
and auburn tinted hair behind the foot
lights. From the way that Mayor Becker
talked to newspaper correspondents to-"
night, a J600-a-week raise over the J15O0
offer would probably land' him in the
theatrical manager's net; that is. If he
could still have the privilege of delivering
his line of lectures. Mr. .Becker wants
to tell the people over the country about
civlo righteousness, the value of public
franchises to the "people." the dinner
pall vote and other things.
