THE MORXIXG OREG0X1AN, AYEPXESDAY, JUNE 19, 1907.
SLUGGARD HURT HIT
Police Judge Rebukes Unwill
ingness to Think.
IMPOSES 190-DAY TERM
Nathan Iy. Sadler, of Palestine, Tex.,
Refuses to Exert Gray Matter
and Court Loses Patience
With Him.
i
Unwillingness to think Is a more
serious offense than larceny In these
relatively enlightened days. Under
a decision returned by Municipal Judge
Cameron yesterday forenoon, the men
tal sluggard Is a more reprehensible
type of offender against established
social and economic conditions than
the thief, the vagrant and the whole
run of petty offenders.
The heaviest sentence that has been
Imposed by the court during the
present year went to Nathan L. Sadler,
of Palestine, Tex, because Sadler was
unwilling to do his own thinking.
Sadler Is not physically lazy. In fact,
he Invited the long term of 190 day
Of hard work on the rockplle under
a sweltering sun. He seemed to pre
fer the prolonged physical toil to the
brief minute of mental exertion Inci
dent to deciding his own case. While
It was plain he was not mentally de
fective to a degree warranting his con
finement to an asylum, yet he clearly
lacked the power
of Ideation which
has been described
as the line of de
marcation between
man and monkey.
Sadler was ar
rested for idling
aoout the city do
ing nothing. He
said he was willing
to go to work if
someone secured
him a Job.' He
didn't care what
kind of work or
what the wages
were, he added.
"What have you
been doing this
past year?" Judge
Cameron asked
him.
"Nothing." said
Sadler. It . was
too much trouble
to lie.
What do you Intend doing?"
"Anything."
"Speak up or you'll go to the rock
pile," continued the magletrate.
"Don't care," responded Sadler, care
lessly. He plainly did not Intend to
abandon monosyllables.
"Are you willing to leave town and
go to sea?"
"It's up to you."
"I'm not your guardian. Can't you.
speak for yourself do you want to
be sent to the rockplle?"
"It's up to you."
"I'ra tempted to send you up for 190
days the biggest sentence I ever gave
a person of your kind."
"All right."
"Very well, you may break rock for
190 days. A man who le unwilling
to think as you are needs some power
ful remedy. I hate to have the
county taking care of you, but I sup
pose you'll earn your board.
"I suppose so," said Sadler. Not a
muscle of his face moved.
He knew the way to the prisoner's
box, . but stood until Bailiff McDonald
led him out as a horse would be led.
If James Cassaday lived among the
Indians they would make him wear
skirts, care for children and bring
wood for the fires. The braves would
shun his society, refuse to speak to
him ' even casually and call him
"squaw-man." Cassaday doesn't live
among the Indians, however. In the
barrooms of Al-
blna Is hailed as a
good fellow, which
he Is not.
Yesterday, Cassa
day was shown up
for the shiftless
"squaw-man" he Is.
Confronted with a
charge of drunk
enness and vagran
cy he had to estab
lish having a vis
able means of sup
port. And to es
tablish this he had
to admit that Mrs.
Cassaday supports
him from revenue
derived through
the washtub. She
not only buys his
food and clothes
but pays for his
sprees. He oper
ates on Mrs. Cass
aday much as
his fellow brigand
Haisull operates
among the timid
people of the Nile. Compelling her to
part with her earnings he squanders
the money . as he sees fit. It was
shown.
There Is some doubt as to whether
Mrs. Cassaday will ever want him back
now that he Is in jail. But if she does it
will be necessary for her to call at
the jail and take charge of him. Judge
Cameron eald that the "squaw-man"
could not be trueted to travel alone
all the way to Alblna. Cassaday
begged that his wife be sent for at
once, but the officers are taking their
time about it.

It has been a mystery to ma why property
In Brooklyn nae sot lncraaaed in value in pro

has only to take a walk alone any of the
streets, or on the Brooklyn car running to the
oar ahopa, to see what Is the matter with this
section. Cows and horses are herded along
the walks. Motormen on the streetcars are
often obit red to vet off their cars and drive

the cars can proceed. Some little child fains

cows are huddled Into a shed so small that
they have hardly enough room to stand, and
there thoy are left week in and week out.
the whole Winter long, without any exercise
whatever. And In the Spring these same cows
are taken out to again defile our walks and
private property. They are hardly able to

PLAN EAST SIDE LIBRARY
Improvement Association Takes Up
Subject In Earnest.
At the meeting of the East Side Im
provement Association last night, the
East Side branch library was considered.
O. M. Scott reported en the conference
with the Portland . Library Association.
The Portland Library Association offers
a building site to the East 9ide people
for this purpose. This site is a quarter
block on East Eleventh and East. Alder
streets. The conditions on which the
site is offered are that the East Side
people shall raise the funds for the erec
tion of a suitable building. As soon as
the building is completed first-class serv
ice will be provided by the Portland Li
brary Association.
The entire expense of maintenance of
this branch library will be borne by the
Library Association out of its regular
funds. It devolves upon the people of the
East Side to provide for the erection of
a suitable building in order to get the
advantage of a first-class library. They
can make this just as good a building as
they wish to pay for. The subscribers
will be expected to choose their own.
building committee to act in conjunction
with the committee of the Library As
sociation, in regard to the erection of
the building. The title of the property
will be vested In the Library Association
and the funds therefore should pass
through Its hands.
The report and statement was adopted
as a basis for future action, and the dis
cussion turned on the problem of raising
money for the erection of a $10,000 build
ing. O. M. Scott said that three full
rooms would be needed, one general
reading-room, one for periodicals and one
for children. Remarks were made by
Air. Brewster, Dr. A. W. Moore and Mr.
Sabln on the importance of the library.
Mr. Boise declared the success of the
movement depended on creating an inter
est among the people, which would not
be easy at this time of the year. It was
finally decided to authorize the present
committee, O. M. Scott, JOBeph Buchtel
and H. H. Prouty, to organize an execu
tive committee of ten active men thor
oughly alive to the need of" the library,
which should have power to organize the
campaign for raising the money.
FINISH CARLINE TUESDAY
Street Railway Company Promises
Service Through Rose City -Park
Soon.
Streetcar service from down town, all
the way through Rose City PaTk to Cole
man avenue, is promised by the railway
company for next Tuesday. For several
weeks the cars have been running to the
foot of the Rose City Park hill, while
the work of preparing Sandy Road for
the extension has been going on.
The reduction of the grade on the hill
has about been completed. The cars will
have a short 5 per cent grade to climb,
running almost on a level from the top
of the hill to the east side of Rose City
Park. The work of cutting down the hill
necessitated the removal of 13,000 yards
of earth.
The hill has been graded to 60 feet
wide at the top and- 40 feet at the bottom.
This gives the county road a full width
for regular traffic besides furnishing the
streecar with an easy grade.
Sandy Road is also to be gravelled from
end to end. The plans contemplate mak
ing it one of ' the best general traffic
roadways In the city. The excellent sur
face of the road will provide one of the
best runs for automobiles within the city.
The direction of Sandy Road, the cool,
shady ride afforded along its entire length
and the absence of hard hills all the way
to the Sandy River, will eventually make
this thoroughfare one of the preferred
haunts for automobillsts.
PLANS FOR NEW BUILDING
Excavations for X. M. C. A. Home
AV1I1 Begin In August.
The committee having in charge the
erection of the new Y. M. C. A. and T.
W. C. A. building will probably de
cide this week on the brick to be
used and order it. The cement was
ordered some time .ago and Is now
en route from England. Since the ce
ment was ordered the price has gone
up 20 cents a barrel.
The committee Is much pleased with
the floor plans as now drawn up. The
architects are working on the eleva
tions, and are nearly ready to begin
making the working drawings.
The tenants of the half-block on
Taylor street between Sixth and Sev
enth streets have been notified to va
cate August 1, after which excavations
for the new buildings will begin Im

finishing touches of their work. The
plans were gone over for the last time
and it was found there Is no likelihood of
a hitch. All emergencies have been pro
vided against.
The Rose Fiesta is now out of the
hands Of the committees and In the hands
of the public. All else that can be done
Is within the province of the people.
Those who have roses should share them
in the cause. Those who have no roses
should lend the support of their presence
on the streets during the two big parades.
As to the turnout there can be no ques
tion. The city is preparing to participate
as one person. The biggest crowd that
ever thronged the streets of Portland is
assured for the parade of Friday. Thurs
day's turnout will be no great ways be

decorations. Not only bunting, but roses,
will be in evidence by tonight, for buds
used today will be presentable for the
Fiesta, florists say. The floral decora
tions on floats, however, will be reserved
largely until Friday morning. In the keen
competition for trophies and cash awards
the hundreds taking part realize that the
freshness of their flowers will be an Im
portant point In making awards. For this
reason they will keep their blooms in
water or on the bushes until the morning
of the big floral parade."
Thirty special streetcars were Becured
yesterday to transport school children
who are to appear In tomorrow's parade
to the Shattuck and Ladd schools, which
are the points of rendezvous. The 2000
children who will participate In the pa
rade must be on hand not later than 1:45
P. M., and ready to take their places In
line at that time.

The Forestry building is already, a
fairyland of flowers. The decorators have
accomplished wonders with the spacious
interior. Their work will be completed
by tonight, and the exhibit of roses will
be opened to the public tomorrow fore
noon at 10 o'clock. Hundreds of entries
have been made, and scores of rose ex

Joaquin Miller Discusses His
Senatorial Aspirations.
IS NOT SEEKING OFFICE
But If People of Oregon Want Him
They Will Find Him at Eu
gene Here to Attend the '
Rose Carnival.
Joaquin Miller, the poet of the Sierras,
arrived In Portland last night from Eu
gene, the home of his boyhood, where he
has been visiting relatives. He will
spend a few days here In order to see the
Rose Fiesta and will then go to Canyon
City, Or., where he will be the orator of
the day at the Fourth of July celebra
tion. .
"Do I want to be a Senator from Ore
gon?" he repeated, when asked the ques
tion, at the Imperial Hotel. "I can an
swer like the inscription on the tomb
stone of the Spartan, 'Sparta has many
a better son,' and I say that Oregon has
many a better son. But, I will be a
Senator. It may be In a few years, and
It may be in 20 years. I -am a young
man and ihere is plenty of time. There
Is still much life in the man who walked
to the Klondike and back."
With his characteristic gestures, the
poet treated the subject humorously. He
was dressed In typical - costume. A
large black, soft hat sat easily on his
long sliver locks, and his beard is as long
as ever. A long black coat hung al
most to his knees and showed off his
erect figure to great advantage. His
trousers were stuffed from the knee
down into long, light riding boots with
high heels.
Comments on Qualifications.
"A Senator from Oregon should repre
sent and know Oregon," hesaid. "He
should tell the people of the East about
Oregon. For B0 years representatives
have been sent East and have been paid
for every mile they traveled to and from
the Capitol. I challenge any man to
point (jut where they have ever .by any
word or act drawn attention to the exist
ence of a single one of these ma jest k)
snow peaks, of these thunderous and
populous rivers, or the mightiest sea
coast on the face. of the earth.
"I have Just returned from Washing
ton, D. C, where a man asked me if we
were entirely on the sea, or entirely on
the mountains. We have something
far surpassing Maine, . something 40
times finer than anything in California.
But, when have we had a Senator or
Representative who has cared to men
tion the wondrous sea, or to consider
our mountain peaks, which knock their
foreheads against the stars?
"Oregon may like that negligent rep
resentation. I am not finding fault
with it, but the work I have done In
this life is In celebration of these
mighty mouuments of nature. Senate
or no Senate I shall keep It up, be
cause- this is the heart and core of
nature. I shall go on doing as I have,
celebrating Oregon, grateful and glad
whatever comes, or whatever our Sena
tors may choose to do.
Leave It to the People.
"I leave the matter entirely with the
people and give them many years to
decide.
"Should it become necessary for me
to commence campaigning I shall do It
In a new way.- I Bhall say all the nice
things I can think of about them. I
shall praise them on the stump in a
way that was never heard before. It is
very easy to belittle and abuse a can
dldate, but that is exactly what I would
not do.
"How did the Senatorshlp idea first
come to me? Well, there was some
talk of it during my visit to the Lewis
and Clark Exposition. I have been con
sidering the matter for two years and
have begun to find something Interest
ing In it. I do not know whose place
I will take, but if the nomination is
forced upon me, I shall reluctantyl
mind you, reluctantyl consent to ac
cept it.
"I am going to Canyon City, where
the people thought enough of me to
make me a Judge 35 years ago. I had
one law book and two six shooters,
and the law generally took Its course.
It was near there I fought Indians
and I am a young man yet."
The poet's cheeks were quite rosy
and he looked as young as he felt in
spite of silvered hair. He had Just
returned from a walk as far as the
fair grounds, so he said, and found
much to admire In Portland.
"Why, Washington street tonight
looks like Broadway," he asserted.
"The busy appearance of the city is
like California in the old days. Port
land is growing marvelously beauti
fully." The poet will make his future resi
dence at Eugene, where he has prop
erty.

M
GiiredslayCured
Different doctors nave different tdwaa In re
gards to oures. Some call a suppression of
symptoms a cure. They dose for drug effects
and claim that nothing more can be done.
But the real ailment remains, and will bring
the real symptoms back again, perhaps the
same as before, but very likely leave the
patient in a much worse oondltlon. I claim
that nothing less than complete eradication
of disease can be a real cure, I treat to re
move the disease, and not merely the symp

ailment, and I cure to stay cured.
"Weakness
I not only cure "weakness" promptly, but I
employ the only treatment that can possibly
cure the disorder permanently. It is a sys

me. and is employed by no physician other
than myself. This may seem a broad asser

broad. So-called "weakness" is. but a symp

a radical cure is merely a matter of restnrlnir

Owners of stock at Lents and the

them to keep up stock in that section,
which is a rural district. The cows, they
say, keep down the growth of grass and
small brush and prevent the spread of
brush fires. Enforcement of the stock
