THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JULY 29, 1907. COURT 'ANNULS.-: TWO-CENT BATE Federal Judge Has Taken All Powers From Virginia's Commission SO SAYS GOV. SWANSON Southern Kxecutlve Denounces Judge Pritchard's Action as High - handed and Danger ous to Interest of Society. RICHMOND. Va., July 28. The Times Dispatch, in an interview today with Governor Swanson, of Virginia, gives his position regarding the railroad rate situ ation in the state. The Governor says the case In Virginia is different from that in North Carolina, as no law establishing rates In this state has yet been enacted, and that the paramount authorty for fix ing rates is vested In the corporation com misson which Judge Prltehard recently enjoined from publishing its order for a uniform two-cent rate. The Governor says that under Judge Pritchard's injunction the commission was prevented from "perfecting the third act necessary to fixing the rate" (publi cation thereof), and that thus there Is no two-cent law in Virginia today." "Under the constitution," said Governor Swanson, "in order for the commission to fix a rate. It must take three necessary steps, viz: Give notice to the transportation companies to appear; second, give a hear ing and enter an order; third, publish the order four weeks before It can take effect." Judge's Power Far-Reaching. The order of Judge Prltehard in the Virginia case it outrageous, says Gov ernor Swanson. He says the. fixing of a date by the corporation commission is a legislative act, and yet he restrains this legislative body in Virginia from doing what Is absolutely necessary to complete an act of legislation under our consti tution. The corporation commission is paramount to the General Assembly or House in fixing rates. If Judge Prltehard can enjoin the corporation commission from performing its duties in fixing a rate and completing it, he can enjoin the Leg islature; he can enjoin Congress from passing laws until he has examined and ascertained whether they are. In his Judg ment, just and constitutional. "If this rule or order of his is per mitted and sustained, it means the de struction of legislative bodies, and means that they shall become subject to the courts. It means the destruction of the very foundations of free institu tions. "I have favored, and continue to favor, ignoring this order ot Judge Prltehard prohibiting' the corporation commission from publishing its order as required by the constitution, and for the publication to proceed and the act to be completed as required by our constitution. Means Destruction of Society. "To acquiesce in the decision of a Federal Judge in arresting the legislative body of a state in Its processes of enacting legisla tion is destructive of state society and all free Institutions. This order of Judge Prltehard makes the Virginia case broader and far more important than any question of passenger rates. "The members of the corporation commission are prepared and willing to proceed with publication or to do any thing else that is necessary to vlndi rate their rights or to attain the pur poses desired. The delay In action has been to enable counsel to look into the matter thoroughly and to reach a defi nite conclusion as to what they think the best and most advantageous course for the state to pursue. "The rights and dignity of the state will be maintained to the fullest extent. When the 2-cent rate is perfected by publication and becomes operative In the state, it is my purpose to see it enforced, and to do this I shall exercise all the powers possessed by me as Gov ernor." KEEP THEJNDIAN SOBER Difficult to Enforce State' Laws Against Selling Liquor to Indians. ORF.GOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, July 2S. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs is determined, if pos sible, to break up liquor traffic among the Indians of the West. A beginning of his crusade was made in Washing ton and Idaho by Special Agent John W. Green, who spent the entire Spring in a semi-successful effort to break up the practice. The great obstacle that confronts the Government in Washington and Idaho, as in other states, is the Federal law which fails to make it a crime to sell liquor to Indians who have received allotments of land. Such Indians are generally regarded as citizens, and the law can no more prevent the sale of liquor to the Indian citizen than to the white citizen. The Federal courts of Wash ington have already handed down de cisions on this point, so the only re lief that "can be secured in that state is In cases where liquor is sold to In dians who. have not received allot ments. Got Saloonmen's Promise. There is a Washington law, In corporated In the Rallinger code, which makes it a crime to sell liquor to any Indian in the state, the penalty being a fine of from 25 to J100. Unfor tunately, Mr. Green found the state authorities unwilling to enforce this law, which appears to be a dead let ter. Not discouraged, the advocate of temperance went to North Yakima, re puted to be the woret "drunken In dian" town in Washington, and there he circulated among the barkeepers and saloonmen, gaining their con fidence (he gives no particular of his methods), and finally got from each one a promise never again to sell liquor to an Indian. Evidently he was skeptical about his new-made friends, for on top of this series of promises he persuaded the town Council of North Yakima to pass an ordinance provid ing that any saloonkeeper In town who should violate his pledge and sell liquor to an Indian should forfeit his license. Finds Whiskey Men Slippery. Chuckling over his shrewd work in North Yakima, Mr. Green started on a tour of towns surrounding the Yakima reservation. He met with all kinds of success. Some of the saloonmen arrested at his request were acquitted; others paid the minimum fine Imposed by the state law, while some of the more wary, learning of Mr. Green's ap proach, temporarily closed their estab lishments and disappeared until he had vanished over the horizon. Next the fighter of the demon rum rriade a tour of the state, visiting Top penish, Tulallp and lastly the circle of little towns surrounding the Colvllle Reservation. At Toppenish he got a pro mise of assistance, at Tulallp nothing was accomplished, but at Daisy, Creston, Alma and other little places bordering the Colvllle Reservation, Mr. Green met with more success and managed to se cure the arrest and conviction of some whites who had sold liquor to unallotted Indians. He lost more cases than he won and some of the most persistent sellers to the Indians slipped through his fin gers. Varied Success in Idaho. After spending three months in Wash ington, Mr. Green went over into ),daho to chase the demon off the Nez Perce Reservation. Mr. Green says that the liquor traffic among Indians is worse at Fort Lapwal than at any place he ever stopped. He made trouble for one sa loonkeeper who had sold liquor to an Indian. Mr. Barkeep was arrested, taken Into court and fined $5. Mr. Green regarded this penalty as a travesty on Justice, but he kept at It, and finally had two more arrests made, one of the .men being dismissed; the other paying a fine of $25 upon pleading guilty. This con tinued for several weeks, Mr. Green meanwhile visiting all the towns lying around the reservation. While on his rounds, Mr. Green ex perienced an awful Jolt. He preferred the charge of selling liquor to an In dian against a certain saloon man; the case went into court, and the man's license was revoked, though no fine was imposed. Immediately thereafter the local Justice of the peace secured the license taken from the culprit and em ployed the original owner of the saloon to operate it for him. He promised, however, that no liquor would thereafter be sold to Indians. Proposes New Measures. In his report Mr. Green says Idaho has a very fine law prohibiting the sale of liquor to Indians, but, as in Wash ington, the law is not enforced. Under its provisions a penalty as high as $600 or six months' imprisonment may be Imposed, or .both, but fthe law does not apparently give concern to the local au thorities. Mr. Green thinks that special repre sentatives of the department should be detailed to Washington and Idaho to watch for liquor cases, so that the local authorities can be compelled to enforce the law. He would have these repre sentatives well paid. Incidentally and finally, he closes his report with a recommendation that his own salary be Increased, and cites his work in Washing ton and Idaho as the Justification therefor. ARE PREPARED FDRTRQUBLE DEPUTY SHERIFFS AT BOVEY ARE VXDED ARMS. Citizens Camped About City Hall Prepared to Go to Mines at Moment's Notice. DULUTH, Minn., July 2S. A telephone message tonight from Bovey, Minn., says that the Deputy Sheriff of Itasca County has ordered all deputies under arms and instructed them to be prepared to move at a moment's notice. ' A mass meeting of the representative citizens was held at Bovey with the result that about 150 men under arms are re ported to be camped about the City Hall, prepared to entrain in ten minutes time. There are about 100 men under arms at .the Holman location, who will be picked up en route to Nashwauk. The mines at Nashwauk have not been closed at all. It is said to be the strongest camp of the Western Federation of Miners. Mayor Cullom, of Duluth, said tonight that he was very hopeful of being able to announce by tomorrow that the objec tions to a' complete understanding be tween the orehandlers and employers had been reached. The chief stumbling block in the way of the settlement of the orehandlers strike on the docks here and at the Allouez docks at Superior and Two Harbors is the question of the recogni tion of the union. RICH FIELD FOR CROOKS Kennel Maid Plucks Over Forty Thousand Dollars. London Cable Dispatch in New York Times. J. Pierpont Morgan's name has again been taken, but this time not in vain, by Mrs. Josephine Leslie, who is under arrest charged with having used it in obtaining f8500 on false pretenses from Miss Blount of Dublin. The accused woman was employed last Summer in a house which Miss Blount visited as a "kennel maid," to care for a lot of pet dogs. The "kennel maid" confided to Miss Blount that Jhe was acquainted with J. P. Morgan, and one day read a letter she said had come from him, in which was this passage: "You are a wealthy woman, but I intend to make you a great . deal wealthier." The maid's husband called for her soon afterward and took her to London, where she invited Miss Blount to visit her in her hotel In South Kensington. Miss Blount did visit her, and finally took rooms In the same hotel. One day in March, according to the complaint. Miss Leslie said: "I have some wonderful news. J. Pierpont Morgan has written to me to put my money in a syndicate he has gotten up with four or five of the wealthiest men in America. I have put in -60,000. If you want to put in 1000 you'll receive a profit of 25,000 and 12 per cent interest." Miss Blount put in 1000 and Mrs. Leslie gave her a check for 25,000, payable June 10. Later Miss Blount put in more money and received a check for 200.000, payable In April, 1908. Her suspicions were aroused, she said, when, on presenting the f25,000 check, it was returned, marked "Account closed." Miss Blount consulted lawyers and the arrest of Mrs. Leslie followed. Out of the Months of Babes. Llppincott's. Though an aristocrat from head to foot, 5-year-old Bernice came to kindergarten with her small hands chapped terribly, an evidence of lack of grooming that astonished Miss Violet. "Bernice," she suggested, "ask your mamma to put some cold cream on your hands, so they won't hurt and he rough." But the hands grew no better. After several days Miss Violet asked: "Did you tell your mamma about the cold cream, Bernice?" The child looked up, solemn-eyed. "The hands can't be chapped. Mamma says It's only mortal mind, and I must get over It." Then Miss Violet remem bered that "mamma" was a Christian Scientist. Amusement Before Religion. New York Press.

Judge J. C. Prltehard. Federal Judge Prltehard in' North Carolina recently ren dered a decision declaring un constitutional the penalty clause of the 24-cent fare law of North Carolina, under which several railroad employes had been sentenced to the chain gang, and released the men on habeas corpus. egate through its executive officer, and one additional delegate t it every fifty members, provided, however, that no such organization shall have more than ten delegates.

The ad mission of Oklahoma and Indian Terri tory is therefore, suggested as a fitting occasion for the assembling of the Com mercial Interests of the Trans-Mississippi states. "The message of the President of the United States to the National Congress. January a, 1907, Indorsing the recom mendations of the Trans-Mississippi Com mercial Congress, which were adopted at the Kansas City session, urging a closer commercial union with the Latin repub lics, again brings forcibly to the atten tion of the commercial bodies of the trans-MIsslsslppi section the necessity for further agitation along this line, to the end that the commerce of the 'country may be so enlarged as to obtain unre stricted and speedy intercourse with the republics of Central and South America. "Attention Is also directed to the prompt action of President Roosevelt in appoint ing an inland waterways commission whose duty it is to prepare and .report a comprehensive plan for the Improvement of the river systems 0f the United States.

Nelldoff, president of the Peace Conference, in order to prevent further comments upon erroneous interpretations of the debate taken before the committee on the col lection of public and private debts, made the following statement today: "The American proposition regarding the collection of contractual pecuniary debts was unanimously adopted in prin ciple, as the absentlons from voting do not affect the unanimity. The commis sion of examination Is simply entrusted with the editing of the text of the prop osition aiming to better satisfy the de-' sires expressed during the debate. The special commission entrusted with the editing of the proposition relating to the bombardment of undefended towns and villages met today. Dr. Hagerup, of Norway, presiding. There was a long discussion, summarized in an important report. of ten pages which as yet has not been distributed to the delegates. Recalling how Count Tornielil, of Italy, had combined the original proposal of the United States with the propositions presented by .the other powers, the re- port proposes to use the term, "Unde fended" instead of "unfortified" towns The article establishing that the com mander of a fleet can destroy the mili tary establishments of an undefended town only when the local authorities re fuse to do so themselves within a reas onable time, was approved by a vote of 71 to 6. A warm discussion occurred over the question of signs to be hoisted over buildings that are to be spared during bombardment, and it finally was decided that the sign shall consist of a large rectangular panel of wood or linen divided into two triangles, the up per triangle to be black and the lower white.

Johnson Seems to Have Disastrous Penchant for Marrying Different Women. ROSEBURG, Or., July 28. (Special.) Henry W. Johnson, groom of one week, is spending the eighth night of a remark able honeymoon In the Roseburg jail. Miss Percy Hoffman, of Portland, a for mer flnancee of Johnson, is detained at a hotel In the custody of the sheriff, await ing further developments. It appears that Johnson, after marrying a young woman at Vancouver. Wash., a week ago. changed his mind in the course of three days and departed in company with Miss Hoffman. They came direct to Roseburg and thence headed inland, locating at j-ieona, near Drain, where Johnson se cured a position in the lumber mills. It Is learned that Johnson has a wife in the East, not to mention his lately deserted bride, who is heartbroken in her home at Vancouver, and the matter has been taken up by the police departments at Portland and Vancouver. According to the facts In the case as stated to the Roseburg authorities, the local Brigham Young led the young woman to the altar barely a week ago at Vancouver, at which place the groom was employed as a mill foreman. Thgir domestic outlook appeared to be of the brightest, until the newly-made husband failed to put in his appearance for sup per on the evening of the third or fourth day. Mrs. Johnson later made the dis covery that her husband had eloped. Miss Hoffman is said bv the police to have been engaged to marry Johnson, for at least ten months prior to th6 Vancouver marriage, which, of course, was not valid, since Johnson has a wife in the East, the authorities say. Now Johnson might have got away had he not been mercenary as well as fickle. He induced the companion of his elope ment, whom he had promised to marry at his earliest convenience, to write to her family at Portland and appeal for funds. Miss Hoffman did so, and the relatives. Instead of sending money as requested, went at once to the Portland police, who communicated with the Van couver authorities, and thence with Rose burg. An arrest warrant was sent on here, and an officer made the pilgrimage to the settlement of Leona. There was a tragic scene when the twain were seized. After many tears had been shed by both, the Sheriff took them to Rose burg, where Johnson was confined in the jail and Miss Hoffman was quartered in a hotel, pending the arrival of an officer from Portland or Vancouver. Johnson is a middle-aged man with sandy hair, reddish complexion and a small amount of good looks. Miss Hoff man is considerably younger and comely. Diplomacy of "Fighting Bob." Harper's. A good many false Impressions about men are bred by their conversational habits or their letter-writing talent. There is "Bob" Evans, for example. Some people once called him "Fight ing Bob," and he promoted the concep tion that was formed from that un enviable term by picturesquely pur ple talk and letters. But, as a matter of fact, there is no more tactful, po lite and cautious officer in the Navy than Evans. Once in Alexandria he was comfortably anchored in an ad mirable berth, when the British fleet entered under the command of one of the Seymours. The flashshlp signalled to the others that an American ship was accupying the epot which the ad miral Intended for his own ship. Evans, reading the signals through his glass, set his sails, reversed, and backed out, to become the friend of the British admiral forever after. Schley, the tactful and the tactician sent his men ashore in Chile, whose people then wanted to destroy the United States; a row followed, and a United States boatswain was killed. The "blustering" Evans In the Yankee would not grant shore liberty to any man of his fleet. He was too cautious. A very sedate officer, one whose fame for caution is still prevalent in the service. Insisted upon preferring charges against Schley, but the "hasty" Evans advised that it should not be, for "politics" would defeat them. Of all men who shouldn't be taken on their face, but on their deeds. Evans, and other sailormen are among the most conspicuous. Observe, too, how many different kinds of Presidents have affected him. Haye was a com panion: Cleveland shot snipe with him; Roosevelt admires him. The only Sec retary of the Navy who did not like him was William E. Chandler. Willie Didn't Take a "Dare." Harper's. Although Johnnie's and Willie's mothers are warm friends, those boys are always fighting each other. After a recent battle the victorious Johnnie was urged by' his mother to go and make friends with his fallen foe. She even offered to give him a party if he would go over and invite Willie to come to that festivity. After much urging Johnnie promised to do as his mother wished. So the party came off at the appointed time and was violently enjoyed by all present. But Willie did not come. "Now, Johnnie, you did invite him?" asked Johnnie's mother. "Yes, I did! Yes, ma'am, I invited him!" answered Johnnie. "I invited him,' he added, reflectively, "and I dared blm to come." ANOTHER INFANTRY GQMPANY FORMED The Fourth Oregon Is Ushered Into Existence at Roseburg- MAJOR YORAN IN COMMAND Unanimously Elected to Office. Some Remarkable Shooting Be ing Done on- the Rifle Range. One Perfect Score Made. ROSEBURG, Or., July 28. (Special.) Oregon now has another regiment of state infantry, in consequence of a gen eral order issued at the rifle range camp near Roseburg, today, by Adjutant-General Frazer. With the Southern Oregon military organizations as a basis, the new regiment was formally ushered into existence and will be recruited up to its full strength as rapidly as possible. Ma jor George Y. Yoran, of the First Sep arate Battalion, was selected to the com mand. The new regiment Is designated as the Fourth Oregon Infantry, and its head quarters will be at Eugene, where two of the companies and the new Colonel are stationed. The regimental staff will be announced later by Colonel Yoran. The companies assigned to the regiment are A, B, C and D of the First Separate Bat talion. Separate Companies B and F, and Company G, of the Third Infantry. Major Yoran's Election Unanimous Consolidation of the Separate Battalion and unassigned companies into regiment al form has been under contemplation at National Guard headquarters ror some time past. The Southern Oregon com panies have long since proved their right to this recognition. The present time for creating the regiment was selected on account of the presence of the various companies In camp, where the officers could act in the matter of selecting a commanding officer. Major Yoran's se lection was unanimous and in fact only a matter of form so far as his officers were concerned. He is one of the veterans of the Guard, and has served as Major of the Separate Battalion for several years past. There were no other candidates suggested for the place. The election was held at camp, under the supervision of Colonel James Jackson, Inspector-Gen eral. Perfect Score Made on Rifle Range. All today the 72 contestants In the Individual Rifle competition ior meaais offered bv the state have been on the target range. The competition could not be completed before dark and will be continued in the morning. Tomorrow afternoon the rifle teams will be mus tered and paid preliminary to breaking camp. The annual shoot concludes with the individual contest, which should be ended by 4 o'clock. If not earlier, bev eral excellent records were made today. The most remarkable record was that of Private B. F. Shields, ot Koseburg who did not loose a single point in rapid fire work at 200 yards. Firing ten shots Private Shields made a duiis- eye each time. His score was 60 points out of a possible 60. captain r. a. Hamblin won the skirmish run. This event proved a spirited and interesting spectacle. The firing was done as near ly as possible under the conditions that would confront a rifleman In advanc ing on a hostile force. Starting 600 yards from the target, the skirmishers ran forward firing at will at tagets rep resenting the head and si-olders of a soldier. With no time for deliberate aiming and with the range necessarily shifted each Instant the requirements for accurate shooting were greater than under any other conditions. Captain Hamblin's score was 67 out of a pos sible 100. ( Gold Medal to Be Awarded. To the marksman making the high est aggregate score in skirmish, slow and rapid firing over short and long ranges, a solid gold medal, appropri ately Inscribed, will be presented by the state. It is for this medal that the competitors are working. To those making the best showing in one line of shooting, sliver medals will be given. At the close of today's shooting. Cor poral R. L. Perdew, of Eugene, is in the lead for the gold medals. He has made 146 points out of a possible 200. Private H. Dickie, of H Company, of Portland, is a close second, with 145 points. Sergeant V. S. Howard, Port land holds third place with 138. Lieu tenant G. E. Houck. of Roseburg is fourth, with 137, while two men claim fifth place. Sergeant J. A. xtoyle and Cor poral Frazier, each having 136. The contest will be resumed in the morning at 8 o'clock and will continue without interruption until completed. BUI Anderson's Sleeping Companion. Albany Democrat.
