1st Coyote Question Vp.
THE DALLES. Or., Nov. 12. (Spe
cial.) The tenth annual convention of the
Oregon Woolgrowers' Association con
vened in this city thi3 morning with over
UK) delegates from the neighboring coun
ties where sheepralslnsr Is the paramount
Industry. Many familiar faces of wool
iprowers who in years past marketed
their clips In this city have been in evi
dence today, and everywhere present was
seen the yellow badge of ' the association.
Time was when The Dalles was the trad-ingr-point
of all these masters of the wool
Industry who now haul their crops to
Shaniko, Pendleton, Heppner and Con
don. ' " "
The first session of the convention
opened In the assembly rooms of the Com
mercial Club, this morning at 10 o'clock,
President J. N. Burgess calling the meet
ing to order, and John Gavin, of the
Business Men's Association, delivering the
speech of welcome on behalf of the city.
The rooms were crowded with delegates
and friends' of the sheep men, who lis
tened with keenest Interest to the de
liberations of the. woolgrowers.
Growth of the Association.
The report of the secretary and treas
urer, Dan P. Smythe, of Pendleton,
showed more clearly than argument could
have brought forth the strides which the
association has made during the past
year, the moneys received and disbursed
as well as the large number -of new
'members admitted, evidencing the sub
stantial character of the work accom
plished. This report showed that eight
county associations ' are now affiliated
with the state association "and are co
operating with It in its various lines ot
progress.
The appointment of committees was
then taken up, the committee on reso
lutions being as follows: J. W. Fisher,
Waco County; J. M. Cameron, Gilliam
County: Frank Elder, Morrow County;
P. Rellly, Crook County; M. J. Ftnlay
son, Sherman County; l. G. Warner,
Umatilla County; J. G. Hoke, Baker
County; L. V. Stewart, Grant .County;
S. B. Chandler, Lane County; Tl'. Rosen
baum, WJieeler County.
Address of the President.
. .President Burgess' address was an able
one, touching upon the questions to come
before the convention and the Importance
of earnest consideration regarding the
benefits of advisory boards and public
land leasing. He said:
'We of the Blue Mountain Reserve di
vision have received many benefits from
our advisory boards, whose suggestions
have Invariably been accepted by Mr. Pot
ter, who . has promfsed that changes
should not be made In that reserve with
out tlrst consulting the advisory board.
"I would suggest," said President
Burgess, "to the sheepmen grazing- in
different reserves, where you have-not
already an advisory board, meet- and ap
point one. If your membership does not
entitle you to this privilege, rustle and
(tot all the sheepmen In your locality in
terested, and you will be recognized both
t your home office and in Washington.
"The administration favors the leasing
of the public domain and this Is a matter
.upon which this body should take action.
Personally I favor the leasing proposition,
provided It can be done along right lines,
but I am not in favor of placing our vast
vranges in charge bf one man and being
?ompe!led to go against a good deal of red
tape in the handling of the forest re
serves." The Coyote Question.
In speaking of coyote ravages amg
flocks he said: "The coyotes are becom
ing more numerous than ever before. A
conservative estimate of the loss of sheep
by these animals In Eastern Oregon dur
ing the past year is at least $260,000, which
does not include the loss of colts, calves
and poultry, which will aggregate yearly
as much more. me mode of exterminat
ing them should be agreed upon. Then
we should take up this proposition with
the National Woolgrowers' Association
In an endeavor to get the adjoining states
to adopt like measuies. i
"Through the efforts of this association
there was passed at the last session of
the Legislature a law providing 'or the
eradication of scab and quarantine
against foreign sheep. This law, as you
all know, has been a great benefit to the
sheepnen of the state. Our sheep quar
antine is raised and there is less scab in
Oregon today than there has been during
the past 25 years. The sheep-owners in
the state of Washington are contesting
our quarantine law, - the- case being at
present in court and attorneys have been
secured by the sheepmen to assist in
fighting this case." '
Attendance at National Convention.
President Burgess urged that all mem
bers of the association who could do so
should attend meetings of the National
Association, arguing that only by so doing
would Oregon become a'recognized factor
In the workings of the National body.
Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Arizona, Utah
"and New Mexico yearly send large dele
gations making up a convention of some
1500 members, while Oregon at most had
sent about a dozen delegates to a single
convention. 1
Among the prominent sheepmen in at
tendance at the convention, are H. C.
Rooper. T. McRae. S. B. Chandler. Dr. S

SAME OLD PARDON SHOWN
Defense in Caleb Powers Case Again
Offers Document.
GEORGETOWN,-Ky.. Nov. 12. When
the case ot Caleb Powers, charged with
the murder of former Governor Will
iam E. Goebel, of Kentucy, was called
today it was found that many of the
important defenses witnesses who
were absent yesterday, and caused the
postponement of the trial, were pres
ent, and Commonwealth Attorney
Franklin, after the rollcall of Ahe wit-'
nesses. promptly announced ready. As(
soon as this announcement was made,
Major Owens, chief counsel for Powers,
arose and said: -
"Before the defense; answers today,
we desire to offer, as a plea of abate
ment, the pardon given the defendant
by Governor W. S. Taylor after the
commission of the crime."
Upon the request of Commonwealth
Attorney Franklin this document was.
turned over to the prosecution, whore
tired to examine It. " This is the same
pardon which has been produced- at all
the former trials, and which the courts
have held invalid.
Judge Morris overruled tlie'motion for
permission to file the plea and pardon,
after a vigorous objection by the pros
ecution, the court holding that the
validity of the pardon was not within
the jurisdiction of the court, as the
.Court of Appeals had already passed
upon that question. The defense, how
ever, scored ' a point in securing per
mission to make a,vowal of the pardon,
thus getting that document into the
record over the .emphatic objection of
the prosecution, which was allowed its
exceptions. Considerable, argument was
exchanged on this point, and then
court adjourned until 2 o'clock, when
the avowal, with the proof, was filed.

Other Contests Do Xot Count and If
This Game Is Won, Tigers Will
Be "Champions" Compara-"
tive Strength of the Teams. .
PRINCETON. N. J., Nov. 12. (Special.)
In the Eastern colleges football inter
est centers around the big games to an
extent almost inconceivable to Western
ers. Schedules are arranged solely with
the end of getting the best possible train
ing out of the early-season or .practice
games. If a minor college becomes too
strong it will have.'difticulty in getting
on tho schedules of Harvard, Yale,
Princeton', Pennsylvania or Cornell.
No obligation is felt to play neighbors
or to achieve championships. For In
stance, Princeton never plays Rutger's,
Pennsylvania, Haverford or Swarthmore,
the four nearest colleges, and although
already defeated by Cornell, a banner in
scribed "Championship Team" will be
hung In the trophy-room if the Tigers
beat Yale. The triumph of Cornell over
Princeton is passed over lightly, owing
to Princeton's failure to play early
season games that furnished opposition.
The defeat of Carlisle is cheering to
Princetonians, because it makes proba
ble a victory over the hated Elis.
Tho purpose of football here is to beat
Yale.. The traditional adversary to bet
on the other games Is investment; on the
big game It is well nigh a duty, and no
amount of faculty moralizing seems able
to diminish the evil.
With the Yale-Princeton game only five
days away, all the football prophets are
busy with speculation, while the coaches
are putting the finishing touches on the
teams. Yale is lying low and hammering
away on the work of perfecting her line.
The Elis will have a corking back Held,
two first-class quarterbacks in Jones and
Dines, an ail-American fullback in Coy,
and the choice of several good halves.
They have all the varieties in speed, foxi
ness, punting, drop-kicking and line
bucking. The ends are -only '. fair, but
they will do. . X
The Yale men do not, possess the line
power of Cornell, the dashing versatility
of PrlncSton, or the dazzling speed with
which the Indians overwhelmed Harvard;
bnt when it comes to the straight, hard
football team work and last-ditch fight
ing, there is' no combination that can
beat them. Princeton will, win or lose as
she succeeds or fails in stopping Yale's
slashing bucks through tackle and cen
ter. ..
The sons -of old Nassau are aware of
these facts and a swarm .of coaches is
hammering away at eight husky candi
dates, for the tackle and guard positions.
From these they hope to select four who
can stand the Yale test. Phillips is a
fixture at center; Wistor and Brown are
perhaps the best ends In the country
but three men do hot constitute a whole
line. The hope is that those who finally
play at guard and tackle will be able to
outplay their Yale opponents.
Captain McCormlck at fullback and
Eddie Dillon at quarter need no 'com
ment. Harlen Is the most versatile
kicker on any of the big teams. He is a
dangerous man for the opposing team at
all stages of the game. Tibbett, the other
halfback, is a wiry fellow and a sprinter
of more than, ordinary ability. There
are good substitutes for every man but
McCormlck.
The Princeton defense is stubborn. The
team will hang .together and fight harder
as defeat looms up. The men seem to
have solved the problems of meeting the.
plays which the new : rules have
evolved. . Princeton is most determined
to defeat Yale, and will probably do so.
THE BASIS FOR CREDIT
Its Abuse Responsible for Present
Money Flurry, Says Mr. Myers.
PORTLAND. Nov. 12. (To Ihe Editor.)
It Is plain enough that the approximate
causes of j.he present financial troubles ara
plunging, speculation and extravagance
verywhere, with a certain mixture of down
right dishonesty and piracy. But back of all
this, is the moth or cause, and this Is "abuse
of credit."
Credit Is the starting; point Of ell our
financial troubles and misfortunes. If men
were compelled everywhere and always to
earn a dollar before they could spend one.
or get -hold of it through any confidence
game they could Invent, all financial trou
bles would be at an end, and all opportuni
ties to rob the patient, faithful public would
be destroyed. Credit gives the extravagant
man and he plunger and enthusiast, op
portunity and hold upon the public, and
credit also opens up the chanoe for the de
liberate scoundrel to practice his craft. -
Credit has Us place in the affairs of men,
but its true use has been lost sight of In
abuses, and in the mad rush for the unreal
and the extravagant. There has been too
much' credit everywhere. The law of the
real world in that "ready pay," "pay down.
"pay-as-you-go," Is better than a promise to
pay when your ship comes in. No man can
wear so serene a smile through a financial
crash, as he who is out of debt, and ha pa.
wasteful or extravagant habits.
