Hearst Calls Workers to New
'York to Arrange Campaign
for the Presidency.
REACHING FOR THE WEST
Agents Seek to Take Advantage of
Pro-Haywood Sentiment in Idaho
and Colorado Are Giving No
Support to Mr. Bryan.
NEW TORK, Aug 14. (Special.)
The New York Times says, regarding
Hearefs political aspirations:
"Arrangements have almost been
completed by the political managers
of William R. Hearst for a National
conference of Independent League lead
ers from various states, -which Is to be
held In this city next month. At this
conference. It Is understood, plans for
the National ' campaign in 1908 will
be very fully discussed.
'Democratic politicians who heard of
this yesterday did not by any means
receive the news with equanimity.
They regarded it as Indicating that
Mr. Hearst, though he has publicly
read himself out of the party. Intends
to become a disturbing factor in Demo
cratic National politics during the
Presidential year, very much after the
same manner that he was in 1904 In
National politics and last year In New
York state politics, only on a larger
scale.
Sccpe of League Extending.
"Mr. Hearst now has Independence
League organizations in a number of
states. The league is an element In
politics in this state, in Connecticut,
Massachusetts, Illinois and California.
It is learned now that Mr. Hearst Is
harboring plans to Invade Colorado and
Idaho to reap there whatever benefits
can be obtained through the acquittal
of Haywood and the turn things have
taken there generally as a result of
that acquittal in regard to the rela
tions between organized labor and the
large employers. It Is also known
that Mr. Hearst's agents for some time
have been at work feeling . their way
into Missouri, with a view of obtaining
a foothold there for the ideas repre
sented by the Hearst Independence
League, and building up some sort of
an organization.
At the conference to be held here
next month ways and means for a
further spread of the propaganda of
unrest and discontent on which Mr.
Hearet hopes to ride to political emi
nence will be discussed, according to
persons In the confidence of the Inde
pendence League leader.
New Machine in Xew York State
"Persons close to Mr. Hearst and fa
miliar with his plans declare that, de
spite the crushing rebuke Mr. Hearst
suffered personally In the last Guber
natorial election, his agents before
long will be eent out through the
length and brearlth of this state with
a view of building up an organization
on the ruins of the old one which vir
tually went to smash the moment the
last returns were in at the November
election. That this is being done with
no other end In view than to force a
surrender of the Democratic party ma
chinery to Mr. Hearst, very much after
the same fashion that this was done at
the Buffalo convention last year. Is an
Impression that 1 gaining strength
among the old-line Democrats in this
state.
That the chaos and confusion which at
the present moment predominate in the
Democratic party In this state, where
there Is a complete absence of responsible
and intelligent leadership.- will greatly
aid Mr. Hearst In any such design, old
line Democrats admit with regret. In
certain responsible quarters it was even
asserted recently that Mr. Hearst had re
ceived assurances from William J. Con
nors, chairman of the Democratic State
Committee, and Tammany leader Charles
V. Murphy that, as they did last year,
they would throw all the support of the
Democratic machine, of which they are
In control, for any candidate Mr. Hearst
might designate as his preference for a
Presidential nominee next year.
His Own Choice Is Hearst.
In connection with this it was pointed
out as something that might be more
than a mere coincidence, that Mr. Hearst
has carefi-Hy refrained from committing
himself through his newspapers to any
candidate That his choice will not be
Mr. Bryan, who has been more talked of
than anv other man for the Democratic
nomination, can be stated on the best o
authority.
There has been a great coolness be
tween the Nebraska Commoner and the
fiidependence Leaguer for the last two or
three years. During Mr. Bryan's recent
trip through Europe he was virtually
shadowed by Mr. Hearst's agents, and
when he returned and a grand welcome
was prepared for him in this city, the
lukewarmnesa with which Mr. Hearst's
newspapers entered into the spirit of the
occasion was a matter of much comment.
Nor did Mr. Hurst receive any, support
fr rr Mr. Brv3r. when he made his race
for the Governorship. The monthB that
have passed since Mr. Bryan's return
have only tended to widen the breach.
Not long ago Mr. Hearst, in discussing
Democratic Presidential possibilities with
some of his friends, said to the amuse
ment of all that heard him that he did
not regard Mr. Bryan as 'safe, conserva
tl.'r. ind Ltable" enough to become !he
guide and ; unrdian of tho destinies of th-j
American Nation. Some of those who
heard Mr. Hearst tnought they could in
fer by his utterance that he had In mind
some person who would come nearer the
Hearst Idea of a suitable candidate, and
that this person was none other than Mr.
Hearst himself. Mr. Hearst, who once
himself ran on a Municipal Ownership
ticket. Is said to have expressed his dis
approval of Mr. Bryan's advocacy In his
Madison Square Garden speech of Na
tional ownership of trunk line railroads.
Tammany Leaders Silent.
Neither Stae Chairman Connors nor
Tammany-Leader Murphy has said a
word to indicate what their attitude
toward Mr. Hearst would be. But it was
remarked recently that when there
seemed to be some hope of peace
between Mayor McClellan and the Tam
many leader, reports of a rupture be
tween him and State Chairman Connors
were very prevalent and never denied.
Now that the breach between Mayor Mc
ever. atlyyhh-ur Dfofeellng -qLsw TH
Clellan and Mr. Murphy Is as wide as
ever, 'a 'statement has been made authori
tatively for Mr. Murphy that their dif
ferences have been healed. And when
Murphy and Connors met at the Waldorf
last week to talk over plans for the next
state campaign the men who Joined In
the conference were Thomas W. Flnu
cane, who Is a member of the Democratic
Stats Committee and leader xt the Con-
ners faction In that body, and Secretary
of State Whalen. who was the candidate
for organized labor on tne Hearst ticket
last Fall and more heavily backed by the
Independence Leaguer than any other
candidate with the possible exception of
Attorney-General Jackson.
. Murphy's Chance for Revenge.
It was pointed out recently that in his
efforts to even up scores with Mayor Mc
Clellan, Murphy could do' nothing that
would irritate the former more than to
play politics with the Mayor's arch
enemy, Mr. Hearst. And it is said that
Mr. Connors, who became the power he Is
in state politics through the fact that all
the Democratic candidates with the ex
ception of the head of the ticket were
borne to victory on the Hearst wave,
would not be loath to play the same sort
of politics with a National application
In this state next year.
Mr. Connors, during the " last three
months, has been almost constantly on
the Jump through the state, trying to
make himself solid with the various
county organizations and counteracting
the work done by the conservative Demo
crats who have striven to bring the party
back to old lines and away from the Con
ners influences which made Hearst's can
didacy possible a year ago. In the mean
time Mr. Hearst has been equally busy
trying to discredit the reforms inaugu
rated by Governor Hughes, even where
these have been essentially Democratic In
spirit and In a measure conformant to
the principles advocated by Mr. Hearst
himself prior to the crushing defeat he
sustained last Fall.
PARALYZED BY COW
ANIMAL SURGES AGAINST HIM
WHILE MILKING HER.
Contusion of Spinal Cord Results.
Body bead From Arms Down.
May Result Fatally
ST. HELENS. Or.. Aug. 19. (Special.)
A. A. Merrill, a highly esteemed pioneer
citizen of Columbia County, met with a
most remarkable accident Sunday morn
ing that may result fatally. He had re
cently purchased a farm near Houlton and
was stocking It with Jersey cows. One
of the animals was Inclined to kick and
Mr. Merrill, in attempting to milk it,
pressed his head into Its flank as Is
customary with dairymen In such cases.
He was. of course, in a stooping posture
with his head bent forward and backed
up against a partition. Instead of kick
ing, the cow surged against him, press
ing, him between it and the partition,
causing a contusion of the spinal cord.
The effect is that his body is paralyzed
below the arms. All that he can do Is
to' raise his right arm to his head and
his left arm part way. There is no sen
sation whatever in his chest or in his
legs and his lungs do not appear to work,
the breathing being from his diaphragm.
Dr. Ross, who was summoned called Dr.
Williamson, of Portland, in consultation.
Mr. Merrill has been growing worse since
the accident and grave fears are enter
tained of the result.
BEST CUMBERS WOMEN
Xo HI Results From Their Arduous
Ascent of Mountains.
PORTLAND. Or.. Aug. 19. (To the
Editor.) Your editorial of Saturday. Augut
17, deprecating mountain-climbing for
women, has just come to my attention. Is
it true that the near acquaintance of the
Ice-clad peaks of Oregon, whose glory Is
bruited far and wide, is to be relegated to
the masculine members of the community?
I am unwilling to believe that The Ore
gontan. never discourteous to & woman,
will take ao ungallant a position.
Are our Western women, then, so enfee
bled In body, so devitalized in life-principle,
so Impoverished in muscle and tissue, nerve
force and warm blood currents that theu
are not capable of a few hours' health
work on a mountain side? Was the poem
"Excelsior" written for men only? Is the
American woman such a curious anatomical
puzzle that she has no climbing muscles?
Is she never to have the tonic of breathing
the llfe-glvlng ozone of the upper air
epaces? must she be exiled to the lower
air-strata and commonplace levels of the
earth ?
Were the sublime heights with their in
spiring prospect created by a benign and
just God for the sole enjoyment of man?
Yet the world record for mountaineering
Is held by m, woman an American woman
Fanny Bullock Workman, who has been
publicly honored by three nations, France
England and America. Last Summer, as
the climax of several years mountaineering
In the Himalayas, she attained the great
height1 of 23.2(0 feet, the loftiest summit
that the human foot has trod. This peak
of the Nun Kun Range, in the Himalayas. Is
more than double the altitude of Mount
Hood. Nor is she today any the less able
bodied because of this feat. Such an
achievement can result only from perfect
poise of mind and body, and is due quite
as much to a well-trained intellect, accu
rate observation, logical habit of thought,
and absolute mastery of all one's faculties
at a critical moment, as to mere power of
physical endurance. it is these qualities
that give her prestige today In the world of
science
Another American woman. Miss Annie S.
Peck, has reached an elevation hardly less
astonishing In the Andes. Thus these two
women have with, perfect safety climbed to
heights which overtop the latest achieve
ment of man the ascent of Mount McKtn
ley. Self-control, absolute harmony of will and
action, heart, brain and muscles that re
spond loyally to the call of the mind; alert
ness, the power to make swift and accurate
deductions, a sustained purpose. perfect
sanity in the face of danger these are the
main requisites . for a successful moun
taineer. Mind therefore plays as important
a part as body. No reckless or foolhardy
climber ever . made a record-breaking
ascent-
The noble science of mountaineering Is yet
in its infancy, and to this must be ascribed
the unfortunate accident on Mount Olym
pus which called forth your editorial of last
Saturday.
As an active member of the Mazamas,
myself a woman of moderate strength. I
have a feeling of Illimitable gratitude for
the health and well-being, physical and
mental, that I have absorbed from the
snow-breezes and bright tonic air of our
Cascade Mountains. Before making my
first ascent of Mount Hood some years ago
I had some misgivings, on the theory voiced
in your editorial, that it might be too
arduous a recreation for womankind. There
fore I consulted a leading physician of
Portland, a specialist whose opinion would
be generally accepted as authoritative. He
advised me to go by all means and make
the ascent under the leadership of the
Mazamas, without any fear of 111 effects.
My experience proved the truth of his
words, for I have never known such buoy
ancy "and exhilaration, such sense of joyous
mastery over the body as in the hours,
weeks and years that followed my ascent of
Mount Hood. And this is as true of the
climb on the north side as on the south.
However tired I might be for the passing
moment while on the climb, after the day's
work was ended there was no sense of fa
tigue whatever. This Is due to the tonic
virtues of the ozone one breathes on those
lofty heights, unsurpassed as a restora
tive. For several years I have taken special
Interest in gathering Information from our
women club members, and after the most
diligent search for facts t have never been
able to obtain any acknowledgment or proof
of impaired health resulting from over
strain on a Mazama outing. Among the
hundreds of women whom I have been as
sociated with on these mountain tramps I
have never known one Instance of injury,
accident or Ill-health resulting from over
exertion. I ascribe this to the good sense,
caution, perfect discipline and skill in
mountaineering that characterize the Ma
zamas. An important factor la the 10 days
probation that is always required before the
ascent of the mountain is made. During
this time there are short tramps and climbs
In which the strength of enthusiasts is
tested, at Iweakllngs being prohibited from
the final ascent.
On the whole. T regard It as safer to
travel over our mountain snow-fields and
glaciers under the leadership of the" .Ma
zamas than to engineer one's way across
the busy streets of Portland, where the
auto-fiends put Aa ir deadly work.

YESTERDAY TO DAY
; Summary
""N summarizing the vast
extent of business thia
store has done the past
few months, my thoughts
ramble back to a day not
long ago. It was before I
was associated with this
house. A certain lady in
Portland told me this:
"They will favor you and
at the' same time make
you think you are favor
ing them" and this she
said of "Gevurtz." Good
treatment, good furniture
and right prices. What a
grand combination; what
a sound basis for a won
derful business and it is
firmly embedded in the
very foundation of the
' ' Gevurtz ' ' establishment.
It is the backbone, the
power and the life.
