BLAZE TRAIL FOR
OTHER COUNTIES
Multnomah Republicans Con
fident Their Example
Will Be Followed.
STATEMENT NO. 1 ROUTED
So Say Party Leaders Who Expect
County Conventions Through
out Oregon to Take Decis
ive Action Against It.
If th Democratic foe spent yesterday
looking for sore spots resulting from the
Republican mans meeting Saturday their
Rearch was fruitless, except, perhaps, as
to the dispute over temporary Chairman
Griffin's remarks. It Is usually at the
postmortem that gaping wounds are re
vealed. The aiftermath of the mass meet
ing, according to the Republican leaders,
is sun-kissed and roseate, for both fac
tions weathered the skirmish and both
declared themselves to be satisfied.
Now that he smoke of the battle has
cleared away, the leaders of the hosts
which battled Saturday look for the rest
of the counties, in the state to follow
the trail Multnomah County has blazed
and hold conventions to put the "kibosh"
on Statement No. 1.
While Multnomah County Republicans
were going on record against the State
ment, party leaders in Lane County were
following suit. Party standard-bearers
clamped the lid down on Statement No. 1.
and a number of the speakers peppered
TV. S. U'Ren with verbal hot shot. The
next big county convention will be held
at Salem. Marion County has issued a
call for It and has set it for March 14.
The Fulton wing of the party is in
control In Marion County, and the way
things look at this writing. Dr. J. N.
Smith. F. B. Southwlch. F. A. Turner
and John Knight will rule the conven
tion. Will Spank Bourne's Pet.
The Marlon County Republicans, if the
programme now settled upon Is carried
out, will go a step farther than their
brethren in Multnomah County. There
will be no effort apparently to prevent
free expression of their opposition to the
Statement. The god-child of Senator
Bourne and U'Ren is expected to receive
a good old-fashioned spanking, and the
convention is expected to Indorse five
legislative candidates opposed to State
ment No. 1. .
Hal Patton and L. Gesner are the lead
ers of the Statement brigade in Marion.
There Is some talk of their placing an
opposition ticket in the field. Just at
present, it is said, they are flirtine with
the Democrats and talking some of fu
sion. In that the Democrats are not to
put a ticket in the field. If the Demo
crats do not put a legislative ticket in
the field, they will fall in line and vote
for the Republican Statement No. 1 can
didates. For the past two weeks a like rumor
has been current In Portland. .There
has been plenty of gossip to the effect
' that the Democrats will not got out a
legislative ticket, preferring to line up
with the Republican Statement No. 1
candidates who. if elected, will serve the
purposes of the Democratic party Just as
well as Democrats.
Hodson Gives Views.
C. W. Hodson. in speaking yesterday of
the results of Saturday's convention, ex
pressed the opinion that the stand the
delegates took against the Statement will
be far-reaching and beneficial in its
effects.
"The nght on the floor of the conven
tion." said Mr. Hodson, "was not made
because the majority of the delegates
present favored the Statement, but be
ause some of the party leaders did not
wish to have the matter brought up in
!he convention. When Senator Beach did
tiring the matter up. it was patent that
.hose who still believed in the Statement
were In the minority, so the fight was
merely on the question of allowing the
matter to come up. Friends of the State
ment may delude themselves into believ
ing that opposition to the Statement is
purely local, but it Is not. and when the
news of Saturday's convention gets
abroad. I look for almost every county
in the state to take similar action."
Douglas County has gone on record and
has declared Statement No. 1 cumber
some. Through the manipulation of C.
Schuebel. U'Ren's law partner, Clacka
mas Countv last Saturday Indorsed the
Statement "hv means of proxies in the
hands of Schuebel. The anti-Statement
people in Portland do not believe that the
trick turned by Schuebel is a true sound
ing of the sentiment of the Republican
voters of Clackamas County, so the
antis" are not worrying.
Next Big Meeting.
The next big political powwow on the
programme is the meeting of the Repub
lican State Central Committee. As yet,
G A Westgate. the State Chairman, has
not issued a call for the meeting, nor has
a dste been set. The law requires that
the committee must meet 30 days before
the date set for the election of candidates
to the National convention, which will be
held in Chicago. June IS. This means
that the State Central Committee must
meet In April before the primaries, and
the election of the delegates will be made
'"bv "he time that the call for the meet
ing of the committee is made, the fate of
Statement No. 1 will have been settled.
SAYS WOMANSELLS SELF
Writer Argue Against Woman Suf
frage and ls Promised tiood.
HOOD RIVER. Or, Feb ! (To the
p-.dttnr 1 hve resd with inlerest th p-
r'va.1 for omn suffrage thai I being
ttuAf in this Mate. alo the wntlni.nl
igalnM U. nl il appear to me that the
erv foundation of the sufTrajre arguments
are airalnst the hlshest and noblest God
i.n privilege of woman.
The profee1 object of the giving of the
Fallot for women la to rectify a ror.KS, pre
vent tnjuatlre and purify politics as well
as society at least so aoed suffragists
assert. Now, tf Kumrn having dominated
over society and religion have stgnally
f ailed to keep those aa.'red realms at least
moderately free from degiading Influences.
iow do they expect to purify poltttrs and
rovernment by the ballot? And why have
hey failed?
1 hellee with President Roosevelt that
. are approaching better conditions of
ubllc and individual morals Rut I do 'hot
tellave that the iniquities of corporate life
'in by any possibility he elevated or purl
led by securing passage of the right of
suffrage. For the lamentable conditions
prevailing In our public and social life have
been in every Instance results of the wan
ton disregard of women, as a class. In the
mad rush toward commercialism, all that
Is depraved in human nature, the mania for
'uxury upon luury, for that power which
nust crush out the spiritual life, to give
ray to selfish materiality.
Mow may such a nation of women rec
tify by. the ballot the Aronga they a'one
have set In operation? Ages ago woman
was a slave bought for a price. Today
the wily captive has learned much cunning.
Though she haa made for herself the sale,
yet she now .desires to take Into her too
mercenary bands whatever else power she
may wrest from a material ' vantage, and
to get which she sacrifices every purpose of
her divine place in the life of humanity.
God gave woman the divine power of in
spiration up towards himself, so that from
a scientific as well as a spiritually material
standpoint woman is the creator, while
man Is the austainer, of the material world.
Humanity should be considered as a single
material body, and woman Its spiritual
essence. , ,
If. then, through the many ages of ignor
ance, woman has prostituted her place in
creation, can it be regained through the
ballot? I do not think so.
We need now, as ever, reforms In opera
tion in our commercial and governmental
life. But no reform will long prevail until
our women are reformed to idealize the
commonplace in life to be a source of
godward Inspiration, to be a comrade, actu
ated ever by Godlike spirit, of unselfishness,
justice and love for all the world, that
through the higher and more potent powers
of the spiritual life she may sustain in
faith and hope father, husband and brother.
And that through these same higher laws
of God she may give to the world sons and
daughters of wisdom, so that the earth
may- again become heaven, as it was once,
before she sold herself.
Whenever I find a strong soul like Mrs.
Abigail . Scott Duniway endeavoring so
loyally to bring some light, some aid. to
the conditions of our times, I know that
back of her must have been a noble mother
and an honorable father. And I wish that
such as she might have had the various
opportunities of personal observation In
many actual walks of life, that perchance
such a mind might take up the battle of
reform along these higher and surer lines.
T believe that Mrs. Duniway Is conscien
tious, but I also believe she is laboring at
the wrong end of the "problem she en
deavors to solve for the betterment of our
sex and of the public in general.
IjORKKA S. rB FOIL
WILL SUPPORT FULTON BILL
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FOR
NEW LAW.
Committee Meets to Urge Passage
of Measure Arfecting Rail
road Rates.
Announcement from Washington that
Senator Fulton's interstate rate bill
would probably be reported adversely by
the Senate committee on interstate com
merce has aroused the Portland Chamber
of Commerce to renewed efforts in sup
port of that important legislation. Henry
Hahn, chairman of the Chamber commit
tee on transportation, will assemble that
committee in special meeting today, when
the situation will be reviewed and such
steps directed as will strengthen the
claims of the bill to a favorable consid
eration before the committee and its ulti
mate enactment by Congress.
The pending bill is of vital import to
the shipping interests of the country and
has been indorsed by trie commercial or
ganixations of this and other states. The
measure proposes that no interstate
freight rate shall1 be Increased arbitrarily
and put into effect until after the Inter
state Commerce Commission has had an
opportunity to investigate and find that
the advanced charge is reasonable. The
operation of such a provision would pre
vent the establishment of an arbitrary
increased rate on any commodity by the
railroads as was announced last Fall on
lumber shipments from the Northwest
until the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion could Inquire Into the facts.
Members of the Chamber of Commerce
of this city cannot reconcile that part
of the "Washington dispatch which says
the report of the committee will be based
on the recommendation of Chairman
Knapp of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. Mr. Knapp is represented to
have charged that if the Fulton bill
should be passed the work of the com
mission, which already has its hands full,
would be unnecessarily increased for the
reason that It would give an opportunity
for a complaint to be filed every time any
railroad undertook to advance its rates.
Viewing the subject in this light. Mr.
Knapp Is said to have written Chairman
Glkins of the Senate committee, com
plaining that If the bill should be passed
the effect would be to embarrass the
work of the commission by overburden
ing It "to the extent that decisions in the
more important questions which now re
quire its attention -would be greatly de
layed. "This bill is of vital importance to the
shippers of Oregon and every other
state." said Mr. Hahn yesterday. "Many
of the large cities In the East have in
dorsed the same measure and at a meet
ing of the transportation committee to
be held tomorrow we shall decide 'on
some plan of co-operation with the other
organizations throughout the country that
favor the bill and see If a united demand
will not accomplish results. We are at
a loss to understand the reported atti
tude of Chairman Knapp of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. We had
presumed that he supported the Fulton
bill and cannot yet believe that he is
antagonistic to it."
J. N. Teal of this city, who is in Wash
ington to appear before the Interstate
Commerce Commission as counsel for the
lumber manufacturers of this state in
their suit to restrain the railroads from
enforcing an- advance In freight rates on
lumber products shipped from this terri
tory, is also a member of the Chamber
committee on transportation. Having
taken an active part In securing a gen
eral indorsement of the pending bill by
the commercial organizations of this
state he will be expected to champion
the measure vigorously before the Senate
committee, whose chairman apparently
is unfriendly to the proposed regulation.
FEW CANDIDATES ENTER FIGHT
liinn Aspirants ' Hold Back Over
Statement No. I.
ALBANY, Or.. March 1. (Special.)
A dearth of legislative candidates con
tinues In L.inn County. Aspirants for
the lawmaking positions are remark
ably scarce this year. The cause Is
doubtless the tight that has begun over
State"ment No. 1. There are some bitter
opponents of that statement In this
county and also many ardent admirers
of that plan of elettlnft United States
Senators. Thus men running for the
Legislature this year are facing a fight
whatever stand they take.
Thus far the city of Browneville has
furnished all of the legislative candi
dates. Fred M. Brown, who was one of
Linn's three Representatives in the last
session, will make the race again, and
W. B. Blanchard and J. D. Irvine, two
of Brown's fellow-townsmen, are also
candidates. All are Republicans. Not a
single Democrat has yet announced
himself for the Legislature.
Candidates for county offices are also
a little slow this year In declaring their
intentions. But there are already a
number of avowed candidates and
many more in prospect.
The following candidates have al
ready announced themselves: County
Judge. C. H. Stewart. Incumbent, and
Charles L. Shaw, both Democrats;
County Clerk. J. W. Miller, present
Clerk. Republican: SherffT. D. S. Smith,
present Sheriff, Democrat, and Robert
L. White and F. L. Bayne. Repub
licans; County Recorder, Grant Fro

GRIFFIN -DENIES -IT
Says He Did Not Declare for
Machine Rule.
MISQUOTED, HE ASSERTS
Alleges That All Reporters Present
Misunderstood His Speech in Re
publican Convention, but Party
Leaders Contradict Statement,
"Whether M. G. Griffln, who was chosen
temporary chairman by the Idleman
Davis camp at the Republican convention
last Saturday, did or did not say that he
hoped to see the direct primary law re
pealed and a machine re-established, is
a matter that is bothering Griffin and
his friends. Griffin says that he did
not attack the direct primary law and
that he did not say that he favored a
machine, while C. M. Idleman, "W. M.
Davis, C. W. Hodson and others are
equally certain that be did make the
statements attributed to him by the news
papers of the city in reporting his speech
accepting the temporary chairmanship of
the convention.
Both the Beach-Bailey faction and the
Idleman-Tavis people went into the con
vention with complete slates. Griffln was
the choice of the Idleman camp for
chairman, while Frank F. Freeman was
the choice of the Beach-Bailey element.
Griffln wa looked upon as a safe and
sane chairman because the harmony ad
vocates did not want to get before the
convention the very thing that Grif
fin gave utterance to during his speech
of acceptance. Griffln, perhaps, did not
intend to say . what he did say in the way
he said it. What he said fell like a
bomb in the Idleman crowd. Idleman
and Davis both took Griffin to task for
the talk he made during the noon recess.
Griffin defended himself by saying that
they knew what his sentiments were be
fore they made him chairman. This was
denied by both Idleman and Davis, and
Griffin then expressed his willingness to
step down and out.
The fact remains that what Griffln did
say was offensive to the followers of the
Idleman-Davls flag. During the noon re
cess they held a conference and decided
on another chairman. Leaders of the
harmony crowd were not willing to have
Griffln quit, but when he appointed S. C.
Beach on the committee of permanent
organization there was a groan of dis
approval from the Idleman camp.
Resents Griffin's Blunders.
. It was after Griffin had made these
blunders that Idleman and Davis got
their heads together and decided upon
Ben Selling as permanent chairman.
Griffin yesterday sent a communication
to The Oregonian denying that he made
the statements attributed to him by the
newspapers, but his denial is not sup
ported by the testimony of Idleman,
Davis and Hodson, all of whom say that
during his speech he did say that he
hoped for the repeal of the direct pri
mary law within a year and that In its
place he hoped to see organized a strong
Republican machine.
"I cannot attempt to quote Mr. Grif
fin s language.", said Mr. Idleman last
night, "but the newspapers printed in
substance what he said while on the
floor. He did attack the direct primary
law and did say that he favored a ma
chine. ''
"I don't believe that Mr. Griffin knows
just what he did say," said Mr. Davis.
"I did not hear all of his talk because
I was busy with another matter, but I
did hear that part of his speech in which
he said that he hoped to see a machine
In control of things.
Mr. Hodson, when told that Griffin had
denied the statements attributed to him,
said:
4There was no mistaking what Mr. Grif
fin said and what he meant. I distinctly
recall hearing him say something about
the repeal of the direct primary law, and
also something about the building up of
a strong Republican machine. I cannot
see how he can squirm out of what he
really did say."
Mr. Griffin's communication is as fol
lows: PORTLAND, March 1. (To the Editor.)
Referring to the county convention in this
city last Saturday, of which I was tempo
rary chairman, I request space to state
that the published report thereof, uninten
tionally without doubt, has done me all
Injustice and made it to appear before my
acquaintances and the public that I pave
utterance to sentiments which were oppo
site to what i said.
. The Oregonian believes in fair play,
therefore I ask that you publish this short
statement. I am made to appear as attacking-
Statement No. 1. 1 never men
tioned st word about Statement No. l. Al
though personally opposed to it, my pre
cinct Instructed our three delegates to op
pose its coming before the assembly, but
if it came to a vote to support it.
I am reported also as speaking against
the primary law an-d advocating going- back
to the political machine of some years ago.
This is not so and is placing me In a posi
tion I do not deserve nor desire to be placed
In. On the contrary. I stated that although
the present law was defective and needed
amending, and. that I was not in favor of
many of Its provisions, yet I would not
give It up and go back to the old boss ma
chine rule. But I did say substantially
this, that the delegates there assembled
last Saturday were the bewt representative
body of men I ever saw in a Republican
convention In Multnomah County, and I
suggested it might be advisable for the pres
ent body to make provision for the calling
of such an assembly two years hence and
thereafter to canvass the merits of men
seeking office and to recommend the most
desirable names.
I said, and I repeat it now, that I be
lieve In such a machine the jwoples own
machine, owned by no boss, but elected
every two years under the law by the
voters of the lift precincts of the county in
regular old New England mass meeting
fashion. The members of the assembly
will. T am sure, bear witness that this was
my statement as to a machine. Tf we have
such a people's machine we will have less
Democrats in office than at present.
These are substantially a part of my
remarks In taking the chair. If they of
fended the kind friend who cast their
votes for and electd me. then I am very
sorry. Rut every member of the runty
Central Committee and of the fnlon Re
publican Club knows that T have been out
spoken in the advocacy of these changes
ever since the law was enacted.
T was elected chairman by a small ma
jority. The assembly Tas composed of nil

knots in excess of the contract require

a new type of vessel and because her
motive power differs from that of the
Birmingham and Salem, her sister ships.
The Birmingham is to begin her trials
on March 11. and the Salem will probably
be tried out in April. The engines of the
Chester are of the English turbine type,
while thoee of the Salem are known as
the American turbines and the Birming
ham has reciprocating engines. The de

completed. Her coet is JL6SS,000. She is
designed, not as a fighting ship, but as
a fast scout, and her performance today
indicates that, barring torpedo craft, she
is the fastest vessel- in the- American
Navy. The Chester is 428 feet long, 47
