REPUBLICANS PAY
llOHLIfWI
Political Clubs Give Banquet
in Commemoration of
Martyr's Birthday.
JUDGE LOWELL IS ORATOR
Pendleton Man Talks on "The Hu
manity of Iilncoln" Reference
to Hughes of New York
Evokes Great Applause.
Judfre Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendle
ton, was the principal speaker at a
banquet at the Portland Commercial
Club last night, triven to commemo
rate the birthday of Abraham Lincoln.
Reference to Governor Hughes, of New
York, by Judge Lowell in his address
on "The Hurnanity of Lincoln," was
greeted with thunderous and pro
longed applause, far surpassing that
which followed the mention either of
Roosevelt or Taft by the preceding
speakers. This Incident was a feature
of the banquet. The banquet was
given under the Joint auspices of the
Union Republican Club and the Re
publican Club, both of this city, and
was attended by 150 of the prominent
Republicans of Portland and the state.
The Hughes demonstration followed
the suggestion by Judge Lowell of the
availability of New York's Governor
as the man required to succeed Presi
dent Roosevelt if there is to be a
"restoration of the Government for the
people and a destruction forever of a
government by the corporations." Con
cluding his address. Judge Lowell
commended the vigorous policies of
President Roosevelt, which, he said,
stand for political decency and com
mercial honesty and reflect the plain
sentiments of the average American
citizen. The successor to President
Roosevelt, declared the speaker, must
be a man who will stand on the eternal
principles ot equal rights, conscience,
hope and faith in the average man
and for which Lincoln stood.
Iilncoln Was the Greatest.
Judge Lowell Introduced his re
marks by referring to Lincoln as the
mightiest type representing the possi
bilities of American manhood. Pie said
In part:
The luster of Lincoln's ' fame comes not
from usual sources. His occupancy of the
Presidential chair at a crucial time in the
Nation's history, his emancipation proclama
tion, his martyrdom are the Impelling
causes, but It Is certain that no other one
of the Presidents could be accorded all
these and nil the measure ot Lincoln's
stature in the public heart today.
It is the supreme humanity of the man,
his lowly origin, his self-education, his per
sonal honesty, his absolute Justice. his
kindliness of heart, his unswerving; loyalty
to and faith In the common people, his re
liance upon them, his loyal Americanism.,
which, added to the tragic drama of his
public career, makes his memory dear,
places him upon a white pedestal as the
model for American youth, and will make
the name of Lincoln immortal.
The average man possesses all these
qualities in greater or less degree, and he
can appreciate them In Lincoln.
We all regard hlra as one of us. Wash
ington was an aristocrat, Jefferson a literary
doctrinaire, Hamilton a financial prodigy,
.'lay an entrancing orator, tlrant a skillful
strategist. These men are beyond us; they
were specialists; but Lincoln saw, under
stood and accomplished large things as we
ee, understand and accomplish small things
In everyday life. He typifies a government
of the people and the average man.
As Lincoln was honest and falshful to
every trust, he reflected the Bentiment of
the Nation. The dishonest;' in public life,
the spectacle of crushed industries and
broken laws, the orgy of speculation, the
.business Idolatry, which was rampant during
the 40 years from 1S5 to 1908 in which the
Nation was wandering In the wilderness of
mammon, served to keep his memory green,
as in the night we remember the day. The
average man, helpless, silent, praved for
another Lincoln a recurrence of the reign
of righteousness.
Moral Pulse Beats True.
The moral pulse of the people has always
been true. Never yet has the majority
been upon the wrong side of any moral
problem when fairly presented for their so
lution. The Nation's present Chief Execu
tive In his mighty battle for political de
cency and commercial honesty reflects only
the sentiment of the great mass of the
people as It has always existed. They
would at any time have gladly followed the
lead of a courageous President along those
lines as they are now following him.
,,,Tb-n,aMe", never failed Lincoln In his
lire. They will never forget to honor him in
bis death. Unborn generations will yet ac
claim him as do we, a child of the people,
the average man great because his oppor
tunities were great, and because his life
signalized the uplifting force of devotion to
duty, the equality of justice and the su-
Sacy.0, r,ght- He ,s th Pt com
moner of our age and race. .
Judge H. H. Northup was toastmaster
and introduced the speecjimaking with a
tribute to the memory of the martyred
President. General Thomas M. Anderson
followed with the toast "Abraham Lin
coln. In which he related a number of
personal experiences had with Lincoln
during the latter'a incumbency of the
Presidency. General Anderson concluded
as follows:
Can Stand Criticism.
"I yield to no one lri my regard and
admiration for Lincoln, but I think we
pay him a poor compliment when we give
htm only adulation. He was too great a
man. for fulsome praise. He can stand
criticism. He was the greatest politician
In my opinion, we ever had, in the sense
that ha formulated a great policy and
carried it to a successful conclusion. He
waa not a trained statesman, as he was
not & master of technical methods; but
statesmanship, after all. is only a method
of carrying out political policy."
Willis S. Duniway, State Printer, was
assigned the toast "The Y'oung Man in
Politics." He urged the young man
having political aspirations to have an
ideal which it should be his ambition to
reach, actuated always by worthy mo
tives. Lincoln was lauded as that Ideal,
the speaker considering that the assas
sinated President was the highest type of
man the Western world has produced.
"At all times," said Mr. Duniway.
"whether a rail-splitter, legislator, advo
cate, member of Congress or President,
Lincoln was the same sublime, masterful
character whose unswerving integrity
made him the man he was."
In discussing the "New Emancipation."
D. Soils Cohen said the voice of the peo
ple demanded emancipation, not from the
slavery that Lincoln had abolished, but
from the emancipation of toilers and la
borers from a yellow peril four times
greater than the yellow peril of Asia, the
lust for gold. Mr. Cohen denounced the
purchase of foreign titles with American
gold when hundreds were crying for
bread. He charged that there existed a
prevailing disregard for the rights of the
laborer and producer, and declared that
if the Republican 'party Is to survive, it
must divorce Itself from all other in
terests save those of the common people.
"There Is a general demand among the
people." said he, "that this burden be re
moved and equal rights and privileges
affordod all. and this service must be
performed by the Republican party, or It
will prove unworthy of the heritage we
claim for it tonight."
An eloquent tribute to "The Men of
'61" was paid by Wallace McCamant, who
recounted the notable struggles and re
markable achievements of the Army of
the West and the Army of the Potomac.
It was the sacrifice by these defenders
of the country, said he. that made pos
sible the United States of today, the
wealthiest and most powerful nation In
the world.
In the absence of E. L. Smith, of Hood
River. W. A. .Williams, of this city, re
SDonded to the toast, "The Republican
Party." Mr: Williams delivered an elab
orate eulogy on "the grand old party,"
which, from its inception, he said, had
been the aggressive force In the govern
ment of the country and the "refuge of
common sense'" as to policies.
The speechmaking Included some rem
iniscences of Lincoln by B. F. French,
who lived at Washington before and dur.
ing Lincoln's administration.
Before adjourning, the meeting by unan
imous vote, expressed Its regrets that
George H. Williams, because of poor
health, was unable to attend. On the
suggestion of Toastmaster Northup, a
toast was drank to President Roosevelt,
and with renewed pledges of party unity
the Republican lovefeast ended.
GROUND IS LEASED ON TANNER
CREEK FOR PONDS.
Building and 20 Ponds Will Be
Ready for Next FalW10,000,000
'Eggs Can Be Handled.
ASTORIA, Or., Feb 12. (Special.)
Master Fish Warden Van Dusen re
ceived from the O. R, & N. Co. a lease
to the property on Tanner Creek, near
Bonneville, which the State Fisheries
Department desires as a site for the
establishment of a large central salmon
hatchery, and of a system of retaining
ponds, where the small fry can be fed
and kept until large enough to protect
themselves agwinst their numerous nat
ural enemies before being turned out.
The lease was forwarded today to
Attorney-General Crawford for exami
nation, sa that It can be submitted for
approval at the next meeting of the
State Board of Fish Commissioners.
The property comprises 12.91 acres, and
tha lease is for 10 years, with the op
tion of renewal for' another 10 years,
and the rental is merely nominal, being
$10 per year. The Intention Is to begin
work on the construction of the pro
posed hatchery building and about 20
PORTLAND SHOWS GAIN IN
BUILDING.
In the last tabulated statement of
building Dermits In the principal
cities of the country . for the month
of January, compiled by the Amer
ican Contractor, Chicago, the figures
compared with the corresponding
month of 190 show that Los Angeles
lost 59 per cent. Salt Lake City 64
and Seattle 39 per cent, while Spo
kane gained 10 per cent. According
to the report of Building Inspector
Spencer this city made a gain this
January over January of 1907 of
nearly 4 per cent, the totals being
for last January, $604,475 and Janu
ary of this year. $823,545.
retaining ponds Immediately after the
approval of the lease, so that they will
be ready for use next Fall. Later about
SO additional ponds will be constructed.
The hatchery building is to be 106 feet
long and 50 feet wide, and will contain
troughs for handling about 10,000,000
eggs, which will'be shipped in from
the other state plants. Just what the
dimensions of the retaining ponds will
be has not yet-been decided, but each
will be supplied with about 50 gallons
,of fresh water per minute, and each
will accommodate about 100,000 small
salmon, making 2,000,000 which 6an be
fed there next season. The water to
supply the plant Is to be brought In a
flume about 2000 feet in length and
carrying 2500 gallons per minute, and
each of the retaining ponds will be
provided with Its own supply and waste
pipes, separate from the others, so that
should the fish in one pond become af
fected with disease, the disease cannot
be communicated to the others.
The new plant will be located about
S00. yards from the Columbia River,
where a boatlandlng Is to be built, and
from there the fish can be taken cither
up or down the river, when they are
to be turned out, the plan being to
plant only a small number at a time In
any one place.

Name Patrol Sergeants.
City Attorney Kavanaugh has decided
that the City Council has no authority
to create the rank of police sergeant, and
has advised that the Executive Board ap
point officers as detectives, who may, he
holds, then be designated to act as patrol
sergeants. This will be done at once. It
la said. The pay of the position will thus
be made $115 a month, and many police
men are anxious for appointments. Five
will be named, according- to present
plans.

One of the most enthusiastic meetings
the Portland Rose Society nas ever held
went on record last night with strongest
Indorsement of the "rose planting" cam
paign, to take place on Washington's
birthday. The society also voted unani
mously to do everything in its power to
assist in making the day a most memora
ble occasion in the history of Portland.
The resolution to donate 500 rose bushes
of one of the three designated varieties
was passed with enthusiasm and a spe
cial committee consisting of Mrs. P. J.
Mann and Mrs. John Minto was ap
pointed to confer with the School Board,
in conjunction with the special festival,
committee with a view of enlisting the
efforts of the pupils of the high schools
and public schools.
This special committee will confer with
the Festival people some time today and
it is hoped that some announcement as
to Just what part the school children will
play on "planting day" will be made
within the next few days. The earnest
desire of all those oehind this project is
that the patriotic sentiment inseparably
associated with the birthday of the
"father of our country" may . be Inter
woven with the spirit of civic pride in
celebrating this most remarkable occa
sionthat of planting roses In the dead
of Winter, or at least what is the dead
of Winter in nearly every other portion
of the United States.
Colonel McDonell, of the Third Regi
ment, Oregon National Guard, has or
dered the citizen soldiery out to act as a
military escort for the flower-bearers on
this occasion and In every way the cele
bration is to be made a most gala event.
The battery of light artillery will also
appear in the military brigade, as will
the Third Regiment band.
Chairman W. M. Davis, of the special
Festival committee, and Chairman E. W.
Rowe, of the ways and means commit
tee, will hold a conference with the Park
Board for the purpqse of arranging for
the formal ceremonies which are to at
tend the planting festivities. Public
spirited citizens are requested to make
known the number of rose bushes they
are -willing to contribute to this event
as soon as possible, for the reason the
preliminary plans of the celebration have
now reached a point where it is bound to
become a most impressive feature of the
whole Festival plan, and there are many
other details of arrangement "that must
be attended to after the roses have all
been pledged. ,
The committee is very much gratified
over the way in which business houses
and citizens are responding with their
contributions of rose bushes, and it is ex-,
pected that ' the full 5000 plants will be
pledged before- the end of the week.

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Feb. 12. Reports
of the explosion at the Santa Rosa
mining: camp, 18 miles south .of here
in Sonora, probably have been exag

the two separate chaises of dynamite
were exploded Saturday evening,
wrecking the commissary and part of
the .hoarding-house. That all of the
Americans in the camp were not
killed or maimed, however, is due to
the fact that the explosion occurred at
a time when they were grouped some
distance away. A half-burnt fuse and
a heavy charge of dynamite were
found later under the house occupied
by Foreman Fagan.
The work is believed to be that of

THE E. E. SUTHERLAND MEDICINE CO.,
Gentlemen: I want to add my testimonial to those of your satisfied and
benefitted patients. About two weeks ago I contracted a very bad cold
