WILL BE HELD TONIGHT
Chairman J)eclures Attendance ol
.ill Party Electors Is Desired
and That Secrecy Has
Not Been Sought.
Republicans will hold inass meetings In
each of the 116 precincts of the county,
at 7:3(1 o'clock tonifht, for the purpose of
selecting- three delegates from each pre
cinct to attend a county assembly in the
Selling-Hirsch building next Saturday.
Owing to the failure of the central com
mittee to advertise the places at which
tonight's mass meetings or primaries will
be held, it is doubtful whether the meet
ings will be representative of the Republic
cans in the various precincts. C. M. Idle
man, chairman of the committee, declared
yesterday that he had instructed the com
mitteeman in each precinct' to poet
notices and otherwise .advertise in his
precinct the meeting and where it would
be held. He denied vigorously that any
attempt was being made to conduct any
of the meetings surreptitiously and
charged that the precinct committeemen
were to be held responsible if the Re
publicans U each precinct have not been
advised both of the meeting and. the
.jlaco of gathering.
Only One Formal Xotiee..
Formal notice of these precinct mass
meetings has been given only by the
Republicans of the Fifty-second Precinct
Vflo will meet in Ringler's gymnasium.
It is expected that in this precinct there
will be a good attendance of the rep
resentative Republicans.
"The sole purpose of the assembly to
which delegates will 'be selected at the
mass meetings," said Chairman Idleman,
yesterday, "is to formulate a platform
and declaration of principles for the party
in Multnomah County. For years there
has been talk of a 'ring' in this county
and when I assumed the chairmanship of
the County Central Committee I resolved
that the people, and not the members of
the committee, should have a voice in
forming the party's platform. It was for
this reason that the niaes meetings were
decided on by the members of the com
mittee for the purpose of naming dele
gates to a county assembly that will per
form the work formerly done by the
Central Committee.
"At the assembly to be held Saturday,
nut a single candidate will be suggested,
recommended or nominated, neither will
a discussion of Statement No. 1 be
allowed. There are good Republicalns
who believe in Statement No. 1 and there
are just as good Republicans who oppose
that proposition. Furthermore, this con
troversy affects only candidates for the
Legislature and with them it is a question
of individual choice. There will be no
consideration of Statement No. 1 or any
other issue that might tend to create
possible dissension.
Xo Factional Scheme.
"I have noticed in the public press
recently several statements ' to the effect
that the Republican assembly next Sat
urday was to be packed with delegates
unfavorable to Statement No. . 1. Also
'hat many complaints had been made to
ihe ffect that the precinct meetings had
not wen advertised properly and that it
was a job on behalf of a certain faction
it the party to get control of the party
rganlzation.
"J have been unable to get the source
5f these reports but any one who has
5ecn In the least interested in politics,
y the most casual observation of the
tvork of the County Committee as pub
lished in the newspapers would readily
have, known all these statements were
!a!se and without any foundation ' what
;ver. "About four weeks ago the entire
bounty and City Central Committee hold
i meeting at Alisky hall and reporters
.'rom all of the newspapers of the city
erc present. At that meeting a resolu
:lnn to hold these precinct meetings and
fleet representatives to this assembly
was discussed fully two hours and passed
by the unanimous vote of the committee
and the chairman was instructed to call
these precinct meetings.
"In accordance therewith more than a
week ago a letter of instruction was sent
to each precinct committeeman of the
county, together with a large poster,
asking that he fill in the place of holding
t lie meeting, as it was impossible for any
one, excepting the precinct committee
man to determine where the meeting
could be held; to post them in conspicuous
places in the precinct and to advertise the
same throughout Ills precinct, inviting all
Republicans to participate.
Will -Name No Ticket.
"At the same meeting in which the
resolution was passed directing the chair
man to call these precinct meetings, a
resolution was also passed unanimously
in which it was agreed that no ticket
should be named at this meeting.
"Since the passing of the resolution
directing the chairman of the Central
Committee to call these precinct meet
ings, considerable activity has developed
an behalf of Statement No. 1 politicians
to bring this question before the meeting,
but it is the belief of the Central Com
mittee that this proposition has no place
in this convention.
"Undoubtedly, ono who is strongly of
the belief that the popular vote wlil be
carried by the Republican party for Unit
ed States Senator would stand upon
Statement No. 1 as a platform. On the
contrary, the candidate who is "satisfied
that if he took Statement No. 1 lie would
lie oblged to vote for a Democrat fon
L'nited States Senator, would be against
that statement.
"It is a matter of choice to the candi
date for the legislature and no ono else,
Since it depends entirely upon the opinion
and judgment of the candidate, the
County Central Committee believes that
'.t should have no place and should not be
discussed at Saturday's assembly as it
would only havo a tendency to create two
Tactions and weaken. instead of
strengthen, the Republican party."

SCENK AT SHERMAN'S POINT, THKKB MII.FS FROM STEVENSON, WASH. Photo by K. A. Pierce.
Yesterday marked an epoch in the history of Portland and the Pacific Northwest, for the last spike In the Vancouver-Pasco fectlon of the Spokane, Portland
Seattle Railway was driven. There was no ceremony attached to the completion of the track from Pasco to "Vancouver, important though it waa. The. sap was
closed at Sherman's Point, three miles from Stevenson. Wash., when the track-laying- crews, working In both directions, met.
The driving of the last spike completes the twin ribbons of steel laid for 221 miles down -the north bank of the Columbia River. That it means much for this city
Is generally recognized and the successful completion of the track is the cause for earnest congratulation throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Although the track is now complete, it will be almost a month yet before trains are run between Vancouver and Pasco, "Wash. The line will have to be ballasted
for a large part of the distance, although ballasting crews have been at work on the eastern division for some time. The western Dart of the new road needs
the addition, of ballast to make it safe for the operation' of trains. .
Vancouver people are arranging Xer a special excursion over the new line that will be' made Just as soon as the track is cempleted. This junket will be made
during March. , .
showed that the appeal of tile adver
tieer should be directed to the average
purchaser, and that by the study of
the class of purchasers of any article
desired to be sold, the advertisement
writer may come to a thorough under
standing of his patrons and thus reach
them effectively. Mr. Cornell said there
are two avenues open to advertisement
writers in making their appeals. One
is through the intellect; the other the
emotions. Of the two, Mr. Cornell said
the latter is far the more effective way
of selling goods.
Upon the completion of his talk, Mr.
Cornell was tendered a vote of thanks

COMMERCIAL CICB TO ASK FOR
' APPROPRIATION".
Large Oelegation Will Petition the
Council to Allow $3000 a Year
for New Superintendent.
For the purpose of inducing the
Council to pass an ordinance providing
$3000 a year for- the maintenance of
the office of Park Superintendent, SO
members of the Portland Commercial
Club will wait upon the members of
the Council at its meeting to be held
tills afternoon at 2 o'clock.'
The Commercial Club believes that
the city should now take active steps
toward the improvement of its parks
and that an intelligent system should
be mapped out and followed consistent
ly from this time forward. By the
adoption of such a course at this' time
it is argued the city will, avoid the ex
penditure of large Sums of money in
the future, when the city is larger and
property values have increased.

Coast for 20 years. He leaves the Pacific

BELLE WAYMIRE
FOUND GUILTY
(Continued Prom First Page.)
his- fiancee to the County Jail. She was
detained there but a short time before
the arrangement was made for Raddlng
to apply his hond to hers and thus se
cure her release.
Leaves AVith Sweetheart.
Mrs. Way mire left with Bell, while
Radding had to spend the night in a steel
cell at the County Jail.
Radding was arrested on Fourth
street, near Morrison, and protested
that lie had heard the jury's verdict
and was on his way to surrender
himself.
"You couldn't even hire me to run
away now," he said. "This thing Isn't
through with yet. There's a lot more
to come."
Tlie closing arguments in the case
consumed both of yesterday's sessions.
Mr. McGarry spent the first hour in
completing his summary of the evi-,
donee and then-Mr. Logan took up his
final appeal for acquittal. He attacked
Mayor Lane In no uncertain terms, as
serting that the .chief executive was
too plainly guilty to admit of any
question in the matter.
. Hints at a "Price."
As to the letter the Mayor was to
give the woman, Logan said that letter
was withheld until the "price" had
been paid for it. He said every cir
cumstance tended to show that Lane
tried to make Mrs. Waymire his vic
tim, and failing in that, had concocted
a story told by him to protect himself
from the consequences of his' foul acts.
"What was the old duffer doing, roll
ing up his sleeves so the woman could
feel his muscles," Logan demanded
after going over the testimony relating
to the struggle in Mayor Lane's office.
"Gentlemen of the jury, do your wives
and daughters have to feel of the
Mayor's' muscles when they visit his
office? Do you have to listen to weird
tales of physical prowess from his lips
when you want to talk about street
Improvements or get a letter from him?
Too Man?y Such Men.
"There' are ' to.o many Lanes in this
world,", he said,, in paying his further
respects to the Mayor. "Lane didn't
want this woman to have a good char
acter. He was in the business of de
veloping her character. He wanted to
give her a character that he was plan
ning for her himself. He looked upon
her pretty face, her graceful form, he
voluptuous body. He ' Is not of differ
ent flesh than you or I or other men.
He was the pursuer and she the pur
sued. Not once did she offer to put
her arms about ' his neck, never once
to kiss or caress him or to pull him
down from his lofty pedestal of moral
ity and virtue which he is seeking to
haver you 12 men certify with a verdict
of guilty.
"Yes, Dr. Lane Is as much on trial
a? this little woman and he wants to
brand' her with the stigma of a wanton
because unholy hands were laid upon
the Lord's anointed and because this
woman here, according to the state's
theory, attempted to traduce his Impec
cable character."
Peroration Is Dramatic.
In leaving the .case with the Jury,
Mr. Logan said, dramatically:
"Gentlemen of the Jury, you have this
little woman's fate In your hands. Find
her guilty and It means her life, and
she may as well go to Mayor Lane and
say: "Doctor, send me down to North
Sixth street, put me in . any house you
like. I am the strumpet you have made
me. That is the life you have given
me, do with It what you will," " and then
raising his voice to a tempestuous roar,
he struck the edge of the witness chair
with his fist and, shaking a trembling
hand with outsprawlcd fingers to the
jury, he added:
What of the Baby?
"Do ttiis and what of that little child,
that baby girl back in Missouri, the
baby that has made this mother's love
cry out with hunger and yearning that
only a mother knows?- What will the
baby say when she grows up to know
right from wrong, and all through life
will see that flaming scarlet letter em
blazoned on her mother's breast? Think
of that, my fellow men."
Mr. Malarkey took up the closing ad
dress to the jury at the opening of the
afternoon session. He said the case was
a significant and important one in which
the issue was clearly defined.
Plot Smells to Heaven.
"What a foul, dastardly, stinking plot
against Mayor Lane this all is." he said.
"It smells to heaven! It is not the joke
that some people think it is, and I say
shame on that member of the City Coun
cil who said he regarded the whole mat
ter as a joke,"
At this moment Mayor Lane entered the
courtroom and seated himself near R. W.
Montague, who has been remaining in the
background directing the forces of the
state. Mrs. Waymire and Radding were
not present, evidently having no "relish
for Mr. Malarkey's arraignment of them.
'.'This man is accused of the blackest
crime in the category," Malarkey contin
ued. "It is a crime known only among
the blacks of the South. And yet the
man accused of this blackest of crimes
is the man whom we have elevated to
the highest position the Mayor of our
cit. , "
"Mr. Logan told you pretty Bible
stories in his address here. You can pick
out Bible stories to meet almost any end.
But I know of no story so peculiarly fit
ting as that of Sampson and Delilah.
When every other means had failed to
put down the "Mayor and blast his career,
this woman was picked out. Look at hcrl
Pretty of face and pfcimp of form. What
did you expect to find here? Did you ex
pect them to go into the North End and
get some battle-scarred old veteran? Did
you think to find some toothless, hideous
old hag? No; it was just euch a woman
as you find here that would be needed
for such a purpose.
Was a Badger Game.
"They used- this woman and tried to get
him where he would have no say. But
he did not fall. And when she couldn't
tempt him the woman had to do the best
she could. But even supposing the Mayor
was frail; suppose he did fall. They say
the woman in these kind of 'cases is
tempting. And the victim must be sus
ceptible or else the badger game won't
worl.
"That man is a martyr,"" Malarkey ex
claimed, after making an analysis of the
testimony. "He has been subjected to
nasty taunts and flings from his enemies.
He has been exposed to the. jests of his
friends.
"Now, as to motive. Mr. Logan says
there is no motive. Supposing the Mayor
had not had these people arrested. In
two or maybe- three months he would have
had a -call from Mrs. Waymire" and Rad
ding and Mandclay. They would have
had him in their power. If he had it t
made the fight he has they would have
had a club over his head that would have
been worth hundreds and thousands of
dollars to them. Mrs. Waymire could
have called on him and said, "Harry, your
police are annoying Fred Fritz by not
allowing hira to have women in the boxes
at his place. Now Fritz is a friend of
mine. I wish you'd call your police off."
Purpose of Plot.
"In a few more days they could have
called and Mrs. Waymire would say,
'Harry, our friend Eugene Blazier thinks
it is wrong for you to suppress gambling.
A.
He says you and your police have stopped
it and that it is hurting his business.
Really, Harry, you'd better let Eugene go
ahead with his gambling. He's a friend
of mine, you know." "
Mr. Logan here arose to protest that
Mayor Lane had never had anything to
do with stopping gambling in the city,
and after a little wrangle on this point.
Judge Gantenbein directed that the argu
ment to the jury be proceeded with.
After a recess of five minutes. Juror
Church put a question to Mr. Malarkey
which portended conviction. The question
was: "Does it seem reasonable that after
he had been once repulsed Mayor Lane
wotild make a second attempt to ravi-h
Mrs. Waymire?"
"It certainly does not seem reasonable,"
replied Malarkey, "any more than do
some of the other things told you gen
tlemen by these people seem reasonable
or believable. I hand you this case in the
name of decency," he concluded. "The
acquittal of those people means the con
viction of these people. I can see it
flashed across the country that the Mayor
of Portland has been judged guilty of
rape. In the name of justice, in the name
of -the fair City of Portland, it the name
of this sadly abused man, his wife, his
children; in the name of the professional
men of our city, of its officials, of every
man, I ask you to return a verdict of
not guilty."
Clearly Within Code.
Judge Gantenbein's instructions were
comprehensive, summing up the evidence
and presenting the law involved. He
said the acts ascribed to the defendants
clearly came within the section 1920, under
which the Information in the case was
drawn. The jury was then taken to the
third floor, where it completed its delib
erations. SUES WEINHARD ESTATE
Frederick Bickcl Seeks to Recover
Valuable Property.
The suit of Frederick Bickel against
Paul Wessinger, Henry Wagner, Louise
Wclnhard, llanna Wessinger and Henry
Wcinhard is on trial before Judge
Bronough. The suit was brought in
the Circuit Court to secure an order
directing the defendants now holding
the deed to block 32, "in Portland, to de
liver a clear title to Bickel upon pay
ment, of $65,000. Bickel alleges that
Henry Weinhard and himself were
close friends. He says he borrowed
$10,000 of W'einhard before he died.
Bickel also says he mortgaged this
property.
He says Weinhard bid $55,106.50 at
th'e sale, with the understanding that
Bickel was to have a clear title to the
block upon payment of tho mortgage
and the $10,000 which Bickel owed. The
property is now in the hands of Wein
hard's heirs, and is said by Bickel to
be worth $150,000.

Judge Bronaugh denied Mrs. Hattie
C. Carmack a divorce in the Circuit
Court yesterday. Willard C. Carmack,

leging it was a conspiracy on the part

ELECTRICITY IS FAVORED
Will Report Recommending Another
Five-Year Arrangement With the
Railway, Light & Power Co.
Defer Municipal Ownership.
Another five-year contract will be
entered into by the city with the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Com
pany for lighting the streets and pub
lic buildings, if the Council this after
noon adopts the report of the commit
tee on lighting. Absolute refusal of
the committeemen to consider t'ne use
of gas lights, and the fact that no
other competition exists, makes it vir
tually certain that the corpgration
mentioned will secure a renewal of its
present contract, which is about to
expire.
It was thought for a time that the
city might be able to put in its own
electric lighting plant, or that ar
rangements might be made to secure
competitive bids by installing gas
lights; and among those strongly in
favor of municipal ownership of a
lighting plant were Mayor Lane and
the members of the lighting commit
tee of the Executive Board. This plan
was found not feasible, however.
Councilman Baker expressed the sen
timent of the committee when he de
clared that there is but one . thing to
do at this time, and that is to author
ize the Executive Board t advertise
for bids for electric lights for a term
of five years. Should the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company
make a reasonable bid, he said. U
should be accepted; if its bid should
be unreasonable and the company's at
titude unfriend' to the city, then the
city should set about installing its own
plant and have it ready within five
years.
Oppose Five-Year Term.
Mayor Lane and members of the.
Executive Board thought it inadvisable
to let another contract to any one cor
poration for a term of live years, and
it was at the special request of the
Mayor, at a meeting of the Council six
weeks ago. that a lighting plant ordi
nance, introduced by Councilman Ben
nett and supported by Councilman An
Hand and others, was referred to the
committee on street lighting, with in
structions to investigate the practica
btlity of constructing a municipal plant.
Three special meetings of the com
mittee were held, and estimates were
furnished by City Engineer Taylor, but
as it was found that It would reqi'Ire
not less than three and probably Sve
years to complete" the plant, the scheme
was temporarily abandoned, and ihe
recommendation will be made to the
Council that bids be asked or a term
of five years.
An effort was made by the committee
to secure a promise of bids for less
than five years, but Osker Huher. rep
resenting the Portland Railway. Light
& Power Company, declared that his
company would not bid on less Minn a
five-year contract, as it wouid be nec
essary to increase the bid not lets than
25 per cent, should the term be less.
He declared that his company could
not afford to install arc lights at the
rate of 400 a year, only to be compelled
at the end of a three-year contract to
discard them, and said no bin would
be tendered by his company in such
circumstances.
Blames City Officials.
C. W. Miller, general manager of the
Mount Hood Railway & Power C'oiii
pAiy, appeared before the committee
by invitation, and said that, because
of the alleged hostile attitude of Mayor
Lane and the members of the Water
Board, he was not in a position at
present to make any tenders on light
ing. He was asked if it wouid be pos
sible for him to bid on the city light
ing, were he in a position to bid, for
a torm of three years. He declared he
could not; that it would not be justifi
able, when the immense cost of con
struction was considered, together with
maintenance expense, depreciation and
interest.
"It is the hostile attitude of Muyor
Lane and the members of the Water
Board that has put us behind four
months in our work." declared Mr.
Miller. "We have been unable to se
cure consideration from the present
administration, and therefore we are
not now in a position to put in a bid.
However, we are going into the light
ing business, and will put- in a bid.
if we can arrange to get our plant
ready In time. Not before next Octo
ber will our plant be ready for oper
ation." The proposition of H. M. Papst. man
ager for the Portland Gas Company,
to Install gas lights was discussed yes
terday, but it seemed to be the unani
mous opinion of tile members of the
committee that it would be a step back
ward to put in gas lights. Councllmen
Baker and Belding were particularly
outspoken, saying it would never do
to resort to gas for the city lighting.
Expensive Surveys Needed.
As to the city owning its electric
lighting plant. City Engineer Taylor
said that, if the power supply could bo
secured, be would be in favor of the
proposition. He said that it would re
quire actual surveys, costing some
money, to ascertain definitely the ade
quacy of the power supply and the ex
penditure necessary to install and
maintain the plant.
Councilman Belding declared himself
unqualifiedly opposed to using the
water of Bull Run in any manner that
would in the least degree cause any
suspicion in the public mind that the
water supply might be tainted. He
thought that to install any plant or to
put in flumes above the source of the
city's supply would have a tendency to
injure the unblemished reputation of
the water.
On the ordinance now recommended
for passage the Council will this after
noon in all probability act favorably,
and the- ntatter will then go to the
Executive Board.
