Birrcll Says Government Will Seek

Removing Cause of Land
Agitation.
LONDON". Feb. 3.-The Earl of Dudley,
Conservative, who was Tvord Lieutenant
of Ireland in Mr. Balfour's Ministry,
J!Hy-3,' created a sensation among the
I'nionist benches of the House of Ixirds
this evening by disassociating himself en
tirely from the policy of coercion of Ire
land advocated by the opposition. The
leaders of the Liberal government, the
Karl of Dudley said, were not going far
enough in their conciliatory methods to
please him.
At the conclusion of his remarks the
Karl of Dudley was cheered heartily by
the supporters of the government.
Referring to the same subject in the
House of Commons. Augustine Birrell,
Chief Secretary for Ireland, refused defi
nitely to put the crimes act Into opera
tion. He said he loathed boycotting, but,
believing the disturbances in Ireland to
be due to Removable causes, the govern
ment proposed to continue its present
policy of trying to gain the good will of
the lriyh people.

VIENNA. Feb, 3. A representative of
Dom Miguel de Braganza. pretender to
lite, throne itf Portugal, has made this
statement in response to a request:
"The Duke, who left for Italy, heard of
the terrible affair through the newspapers
just before his departure, and expressed
his abhorrence at the shameless deed. To
give an opinion respecting the causes of
the crime and its consequence is impossi
ble, but the Duke sincerely hopes that
those responsible, fur its perpetration
would pause before the grief of the un
happy widow and her son and that all
self-respecting element's of Portuguese so
ciety would unite to defend them.'"

MADRID. Feb. 3. The Government. has
ordered the cruiser Prlncesa de Asturlas
to proceed to Lisbon. The dispatch of the
cruiser lo Lisbon it is explained by, the
newspapers, is to put the warship at the
disposition of the Spanish Minister.
The Lisbon correspondent of the Im
pareial says that when the Dowager
Queen, Maria Fia, arrived at the Arsenal
the doctors were bathing the faces of the
King and the Crown Prince. The Queen
threw herself on the body of her son, the
Kins and the-doctors mere obliged to re

FRANCO'S REIGN IS ENDED
RESIGNS AFTER CONFERENCE
WITH THE QUEEN.
Sends Out Reassuring Dispatches
and Declares Loyalty to Dynasty.
Demonstration Against Him.
PARIS, Feb. 4. A . dispatch to the
Petite Republique from Lisbon says that
the minister of war there has categorical
ly denied that a revolution has broken
out at Oporto or that there have been
disturbances in other parts of the country
and has issued the following statement:
"There is not the slightest agitation
either of persons in private life or the
military. The rate of exchange remains
firm despite Saturday's tragedy and the
existing crisis."
The correspondent says the fact that a
government statement emanates from the
minister of war means that the country
is in a state of siege and under the order
of the minister of war.
The Matin has received the following
telegram from ex-Premier Franco:
"The horrible tragedy has quite pros
trated me, but it does not shake m faith
in the future of the country and the
dynasty. Yesterday at a meeting of the
council- of state I and the other chiefs
of the monarchical parties declared to
the King that we would unite around the
throne and support the new ministry."
Foreign Minister Pichon was giving ex
pression to' the sorrow and sympathy of
France for Portugal in the chamber of
deputies today wiien he was Interrupted
by Marcel Sembat, Socialist, who cried
out "The assassins were provoked by
the dictatorship of Franco." The voicing
of this sentiment was applauded from the
extreme left. M. Bvlsson, president -of
the chamber, refused M. Sembat the
floor.
The Temps today publishes a dispatch
from Lisbon saying that after a long
conversation with Queen Amelie, Premier
Franco announced that he had resigned,
saying that he believed this step would
restore calm in Portugal. The violent
demonstration in front of Franco's house,
the correspondent continues, doubtless
convinced hyn of the wisdom of this
course. It is declared that Franco in
tends to leave Portugal.
BRITAIN WILL NOT MEDDLE
Sends Fleet Away to Destroy Foun
dation of Rumors.
LONDON, Feb. 3. It has been rumored
for some time past that Great Britain
proposed to interfere to restore order in
Portugal, and on occasion arising it has
been said that there would bo joint action
to this end on the part of Great Britain
and Spain.
Official opinion here is largely in sym
pathy with Senor Franco, who, it is be
lieved, has been working for the best in
terests of his country.
The British Atlantic fleet, which Is now
at Vigo, was to have visited Lisbon this
week. To avoid the appearance that the
British government is .attempting to in
terfere in Portuguese politics, only the
battleship Exmouth, with Vice-Admiral
Sir Asheton G. Curzon-Howe on board,
and one cruiser, will go to the Tagus.
Existing treaties between Great Brit-
ain and Portgular bind the former power
not only to protect Portugal from
foreign invasion, but also to render aid
to the throne in case of any internal
revolution, and this alliance has. In the
past, aided greatly in preserving the
peace of Portugal. King Edward of Eng
land, and the late King Carlos were close
personal friends.
GIBRALTAR, Feb. 3. The second
British cruiser squadron left here this
morning, steaming to the west. It was
at first reported that the vessels were
going to Lisbon, but It is understood
now that the squadron will not go to
the Tagus, unless thesituation in Por
tugal takes on an unexpected turn,
jeopardizing the lives or property of
British subjects.
SOLEMN WARNING TO CZAR
Russian Paper Hints He .May Share
Carlos' Fate.
ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 3. The tragic
occurrences at Lisbon have created a
deep impression on all sections' of so
ciety here, and the newspapers that ap
peared today comment freely on the
events that occurred."
The Russ; In a dariug style, draws a
thinly veited parallel between conditions
in Portugal and Russia and warns the
government in almost so many words that
there is- danger of a similar event here.
The lamentable and awful tragedy in
Portugal, the paper says, was due to the
fact that the King did not understand
his people, and was attempting to stem
by dictatorial methods of repression the
irresistible striving of the masses to take
part in the' government. The tragedy
happened -at the very moment .when Pre
mier Franco seemingly had succeeded in
restoring order by- a series of unprece
dented repressive measures.
The Novoc Vremya, although attribut
ing the direct execution of the plot to
anarchists, to whom all government is ob
noxious, also connects the crime and the
dictatorship of Franco, which met with
both open and secret resistance from all
political parties.
CENSOR KEEPS RIGID WATCH

PARIS. Beb. 3. A dispatch from Lisbon
says the censorship maintained by the

of Portugal was today dispatched from
the White House:
"White House. Washington, Feb. 3.
1908. His Majesty, Manuel II. King of
Portugal, Lisbon: I hasten to express to

PARIS. Feb. 4. A special dispatch to
the Matin from Lisbon, dated February

King and Crown Prince of Portugal.
FIERCE FIGHT IN MOROCCO
Moors Suddenly Spring l"p and Try.
to Surround French.
PARIS, Feb. 3. Eight Frenchmen were
killed and 150 wounded in a desperate con
flict which the French forces in Morocco
have had with natives in the south. Word
of this engagement was received here to
night from General d'Amade. the com
manding general in Morocco, who reports
that a French column commanded by
Colonel Boutegourd was suddenly at
tacked by a vast horde of Arabs, while
marching to the south for the purpose of
punishing the Chaouia tribesmen.
The combat opened at midday yester
day. Thousands of Moors seemed to
spring out of the hills and sought to sur.
round the French troops. A tierce fight
followed, which lasted two hours, the
finemy finally 'retiring with heavy losses.
SOLDIERS DIE IN SNOW STORM
Terrible Death of Score of French
men in Algiers.
AIN SEFRA. Algeria. Feb. 3. Twenty-one
men of the Twentieth Company
of the Foreign Legion, and possibly
others of the same company, perished
on February 1 in a blinding snow storm
whicf! overtook the soldiers on their
way to Fort Hassa.
The entire company became separat
ed, and -later searchers recovered the
bodies of 21 of them. A section of the
company succeeded in reaching Fort
Hassa in a pitiable condition, but many
are unaccounted for.
No Billboards in Berlin.
Tiie Circle.
Billboards for advertising purposes are
prohibited in Berlin. Their placo is taken
by pillars or columns erected at street
corners. -
These columns, which are usually of
wood and iron, are about 12 feet high
and three feet In diameter. Built at the
edge of the sidewalk, they form a con
spicuous feature of street life in that
city.
It is interesting to note that the mat
ter displayed on these columns is more In
the nature of reading notices than of pic
tures. The privilege of erecting and using
those advertising columns is awarded by
the city to the highest bidder. Accord
ing to the terms of the lease now In force,
the city receives an annual rental of
about $5,200. but cannot grant a similar
privilege to any one else. The life of the
lease is ten years.
The price which the successful bidder
may charge for space Is regulated by
the Berlin authorities: All posters be
fore they are put up must be approved
by the police. Except' in special cases,
the advertising. space is awarded accord
ing to the order of application. The city
reserves the-right to demand the posting
of its notices free.
Plants' Temperature at Night,
Youth's Companion.
The "horticultural hygrometer." re
cently .brought out in England, is de
signed lo ennble gardeners and cul
tivators of delicate plants to foresee
the probable minimum temperature at
night. The Instrument is based upon
the fact that this temperature cannot
easily fall below the dew-point ob
served at nightfall. It consists of a
wet and a dry-bulb thermometer, and is
furnished with a cylindrical scale
which connects the dew-point with the
difference between the readings of the
two thermometers. By turning the
scale to correspond with . this differ
ence, the observer can see at a glance,
without the use of tuoies, whether the
dew-point is below freezing, and con
sequently whether a frost is to be ex
pected during the ensuing night.

HE IS MAKING GOOD
Hawley May Become One of
West's Strong Men.
MAKING RIGHT FRIENDS
Ingratiating Himself With Leaders
ajid Men of Departments Ear
nest, Faithful Worker Who Is
on Hand All the Time.
OREGOX1AX NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Feb. 3. Representative Hawley,
of Oregon, !s "making good." He has
shown during his brief career In Con
gress that he Is made of the right kind
of stuff. If the people of his district
have the good sense to return him term
after term, they will find at the end of
a few years that they have one of the
strongest Representatives from the en
tire West.
. Though untrained in a legislative ca
reer. Mr. Hawley is rapidly learning the
ropes in Washington, and is laying a
sound foundation for a successful con
gressional career. He did not come to
Washington with a reputation; he was
not known as a Jiumorist; he was not
heralded as a "boy orator'' or "boy
wonder": he was not advertised as a
freak of any sort. He was Just a plain,
new Congressman, to he Judged by his'
actual worth. He made no pretenses: he
claimed nn honon.
v The men who are recognized leaders
in Congress are continually looking lor
hew material. They carefully scrutinize
every new member: take his Imeasure,
and." if he is worth while, they watch his
development. There is always room for
good men: there is always a demand for
new leaders. But leaders are not devel
oped in a session: they work up to high
position by degrees. The eyes of the
leaders have been on Mr. Hawley. and
their first Impression is very favorable.
Hawley Karnest and 'Faithful.
Talk with members who have come to
know Hawley at all Intimately and they
tell you that they are Impressed by his
earnestness, his sincerity and his faith
ful devotion to duty. He has wisely
chosen tor' play a modest part during his
first term, as is becoming in -every man
who is just entering upon a congressional
career. Mr. Hawley has not undertaken
to thrust himself prominently into the
limelight, for he. like ail otber new mem
bers, is "on probation." Yet he is work
ing in a quiet way in behalf of his state
and his district, and is all the while
familiarizing himself with the work of
Congress. What Is equally important, ho
is extending his circle of friends among
those members who are worth while.
Friends are worth more to a man in
Congress than columns upon columns of
speeches. Friends help in passing legis
lation: few votes were ever made by
speeches.
With all his modesty, Representative
Hawley has demonstrated a determina
tion to get fair treatment at the hands
of those with whom he deals. He Is not'
so modest as to allow others to take un
fair advantage of him hot for a minute.
He is ready to deal squarely with every
man, and he demands that every man
deal as fairly with hln.
Very Friendly With Jones.
A close friendship has grown up be-
tween Representative Hawley, of Ore
gon, and Representative Jones, of Wash
ington: not a political combination in any
sense, but a personal fellowship. Jones
is of the same rugged, frank and square
type, as Hawley, and he knows how to
fight when a scrap is necessary. Jones
is by all means the most successful Con
gressman who was ever sent here, from
the Pacific Coast, but he began as Haw
ley is beginning, and developed slowly.

Jones is gladly rendering whatever as
sistance lie can to his new colleague
from Oregon, and his aid will be worth
much.
There is this to be remembered: no
Congressman ever made a record in his
.'first session; one term Is not sufficient
to develop a mjin in Congress. But one
term will show the type of man and what
may reasonably, be expected, and the
first impression of Mr. Hawley is a most
favorable one. '
A great deal of the work of a Con
gressman is in the Government Depart
ments: there are innumerable matters re
quiring his personal attention. There
are postoffices to create and to fill; mail
routes to establish and to improve; rural
routes to establish: pnsion cases to be
adjusted: land entries to be brought up
for action, and a myriad of other things
of which the average voter has no con
ception. Liked in His Departments.
Mr. Hawley has devoted a great deal of
his time to these affairs. He has made
the acquaintance of members of the cabi
net handling these respective matters: he
has also made the acquaintance of bureau
chiefs. In the Departments, as in Con
gress, he has made a most favorable Im
pression, for he demands only What is
right, though he insists on getting what
ever is right. He is not Juggling these
matters for the petty political advantage
that might be involved: he is acting al
ways in the public interest. Such men
are always welcome in the Departments
they are rare.
Since Congress convened, Mr. Hawley
has. not missed a session. He has learned
to follow the example of the successful
men. and be on hand, even though the
proceedings may be dull and uninterest
ing. The big men are always present: the
successful men are In constant attend
ance. It is by being present that they are
able to take advantage of favorable op
portunities that arise at unexpected, mo
ments, and enable them to secure, action
on local legislation. So far Mr. Hawley
has had no legislation In shape to call
up for consideration, but he has shown
his good faith and his reward will. come
in due season.
As a member of the committee on agri
culture, Mr. Hawley has devoted himself
to the investigations and hearings wTiich
will form the hasls of the agricultural
appropriation bill soon to be reported.
It was all new to him:. the nature of the
work and its extent, but he has given it
conscientious study, and his aid in shap
ing the 'bill will be of material assistance
to the committee. ' The committee-room,
by the way. is a splendid place to make
friends. There again Mr. Hawley has
made the ntost of his opportunities.
It Is with regret that he left his- work
to make the trip back to Oregon in or
der that he might register, as required
by the primary election law. for that trip
takes 4iim out of Congress for practically
two weeks. l'et he is not at fault for go
ing; for failure to go would mean that
he could not go before the. people and
ask for re-election. That unfortunate
oversight In the law if it was oversight
Is a great handicap to the delegation in
Congress.
The successful man in Congress is not
the man who makes the most speeches or
the ' man who makes the most display.
Not one of the leading men in Congress
thrusts himself into the arena oftener
than is necessary. The prolific talkers
do little else. Yet it is not required that
a member shall forever remain silent.
But if the new member be wise, he will
remain In the background during his
first term, and if he is the right sort, he
will be brought forward when lie enters
upon his second. There are orators
enough to fill tiie Congressional Record:
what the leaders want is workers. The
successful man. when he begins to talk,
speaks on local legislation only: If he has
the capacity he may later in his career
take up topics of National Importance.
Buying the' Bride.
In some parts of Hungary- it is the
custom for the bridegroom to pay a sum
to the bride's parents, and in case the
parties cannot agree the mayor acts as
arbitrator. A mayor, who is a cattle
dealer, recentlj had- to decide a case of
this kind, and after inspecting the bride
decided that the bridegroom must pay
the parents at the rate of half a crown
for each pound that the bride weighed,
j This verdict was accepted, and the
woman weighing S6 pound;, the bride
groom handed over the equivalent of

DRAWS IN STATE OFFICERS
Shows Sanderson Adopted New
Method or Measurement, Whereby
Price Was More Than Doubled,
Though Seemingly Iteduced.
HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 3.-Bills, in

to securing the Capitol furnishing con
tract in 1904, Sanderson sold furniture to
the state on the basis of "linear foot"
measurement, were put in evidence at the
trial of Sanderson. Ex-Auditor-Genera!
Snyder. ex-State Treasurer Mathues and
James -M Shumaker. ex-Superintendent
of Grounds and Buildings, in the Dau

fought vigorously against the introduc
tion of this evidence, without which it
would be difficult for the commonwealth
to show that his charge by the "surface
foot" measure was irregular, but was
overruled by Judge Kunkel.
Involves State Officers.
The commonwealth also connected the
former state officers with Sanderson in
the conspiracy charge by showing that
they certified ! bills containing the
wrong item number on the schedule upon
which Sanderson was given the Capitol
furnishing contract. To do this the
state's lawyers showed that previous to
the payment of the bill for sofas, tables
and clothes-trees In the case now on trial.
Sanderson had rendered bills under the
proper item number In the schedule, and
contended that therefore Snyder. Mathues
