D. Stevens Goes Into Oregon City Reformer's Past. USES HARSH EPITHETS Senator Bourne, Statement No. 1 and the Direct Primary Law Conic In for a Share of Orator's Condemnation. Statement No. 1. the direct primary law. Vnlted States Senator Bmirnc and "Wil liam S. U'Hcn came in. share anci share alike, for a severe grilling last nisht. when J. I. Stevens spoke at Selling Hirsch Hall. owing to stormy weather the audience was not larse, nut it was verv evident that most of liis hearers were In Hi-oorrt witli Mr. Stevens. When A. M. Hlmes arose at the close of the ad dress and made a motion to uphold 1: Ren and his policies, the words wera hardly out of his mouth when a loud chorus of "noes" went up. Stevens denounced l-'Ron as a scoundrel" and t "btavksuard." uom paring him with Parrolles in Shakes peare's "All's Well That Knds Well." Referring to Mr. U'Ken's apolosy for leaving; out the enacting claxise of the Hntl-pass law. which invalidated -the law. he said that I" Ken was rldins on a pass all the time he was advocatins the law. and that after he had made the mistake, which Mr. Stevens Intimated was done j.u'posely. he turned about, apparently, and advocated the sivlnK of passes hy urging enactment of a law to that effect In th last Legislature. Stevens intimated that when he was supporting T'Ken. a few years asro. he was belns duped. Fiut he said when he fund IV Ken out. he ceased to follow his lead. Mr. Stevens referred to Lincoln Steffen's article in a recent is-sue of the American Magazine. Steffens would have us believe." said Mr. Stevens, "that I" Ren is a sort of hero with a halo of plory about his head. Brownell is also referred to. but Rrownell Is a white ansel by comparison." To Bourne and U'Ren Stevens charged tlie death of a man named Kruse, who waa at Salem during the notorious hold up session of the LoRislature. "if it hadn't been for the 'house of Tnirth.' " said Stevens. "Kruse would be alive today. His death was a tragic thing. They had him there and kept him full for several days, and at last one of the members of the legislature came to I" Ren and said. "I think Kruse Is pretty bad off. We had better send for th "doctor." But l"Ren only replied. '.Don't worry about him. I am a doctor myself. I'll look out for Kruse.' The re sult was the man died and was taken home and buried by his friends." Mr. Stevens referred to Senator Bourne as not being a representative of any po litical party, or of anybody in Oregon, except a very few. "Under the direct primary law." con tinued Mr. Stevens, "the majority has not ruled. The Statement No. 1 man wants to know what we shall do. I say, do as we have done until we have changed the Government to Socialist standards. "The people favoring Statement No. 1 and the direct primary law are laying the charge that the referendum is dead. The truth of the matter is that direct legislation, the initiative and referendum will continue on until it becomes the great fundamental law of the United States. You need have no fear of any thing happening to the initiative and referendum. ' "A great many people will try a great many schemes and make a great many laws, but the Initiative and referendum is here to stay. It is, in the last analy sis, the only principal by which a pure democracy can be established, and once established, it will be forever maintained. "There is a way to tire the people of making so many laws. That is by giv ing them their till. "We are fast coming to the point with our referendum where, there are so many people proposing so many laws that the voters will reject the most of them. Still, the initiative and referendum has the advantage that while the. voters will refuse to sign many of the petitions, they will study each and every petition submitted to them. "I might cite the language of Mrs. Judge Waldo, who advises the Orange to go through all the proposed laws. If they have any doubt about any one of them they are to sit as a jury. I am satisfied that the referendum will come to be regarded in time as the sole basis of political action throughout the United States. "We come now to the direct primary law. As a rule, the sons and daughters of great men are very ordinary persons. So it is with the direct primary law. While we are satisfied that the initiative and referendum is all right, the direct primary law is one of those poor chil dren. In fact, I can hardly call it legit imate. It Is rather a mongrel." Here Mr. Stevens told of the provisions of the primary law. and continued: "The Democratic party is taking a great interest this year in the Republican party's nominations. My religious friend. Oingett Thomas. charges that he never saw in all his political life such a complication. He almost charges per jury on the part of his brethren: that they are doing all in their power to mix in Republican politics. "When Bourne ran for Senator, he could not gel the nomination to save his life through the Republican machine, which knew him. But when the votes were counted. H. M. Cake, who was run ning against him. found himself 6o votes short. The defendants of this direct primary law would have us believe that Bourne got the majority of the votes at the election. "Returning to the direct primary law, it would. I believe, if taken to the Su preme Court, be declared invalid, for it is unconstitutional. It does discriminate, and is unjust to the people ' who are obliged to live under it.'' WORKS FOR LEPERS Father Conrardy Tells of the Plague in Hawaii. PLANS MISSION IN CHINA Vnfortunates on Island of Molokai Are Cheered by Hopes of Cure 'ow Promised for Leprosy. Father L. I Conrardy spoke at the Cathedral yesterday. He told of his work among the HawaUpn lepers, and spoae of the efforts he expects to put forth in behalf of the unfortunates in China. He is to speak at St. Mary's Catholic Church next Sunday on "Civilization." rr. Con rardy said in part yesterday: "In the Sandwich Islands the Hawaiian government estaoIlsliAi. in 1S56, a leper settlement on the islam of Molokai and. both before and since the annexation of the islands by the United States, the lepers have been provided for. Between tSOOO and J9000 has been expended In their behalf up to the present time. In those days the lepers were Ift to care for themselves. "At the present time there reside in the settlement two Catholic priests, one at Kalaupapa and one at Kalawao, about three miles distant front each other. There are six churches, two Catholic, two Calvinist. and two Mormon. The lepers and their friends are now stirred by the hope of a cure, the discovery of which is announced with confidence by a Swiss, a machinist named Wallach. The Hawaiians have requested the board of health to give his treatment a thorough trial." Wynn Coman, and this concert will be the fourth of their subscription series. The.

WAS NATIVE OF OfOON Widely-Known Lawyer and Demo cratic Leader Fails to Rally From the Shock of Recent Surgical Operation. Judge Thomas G. Hailey, former Jus tice of the State Supreme Court, and one of the leading Democratic lawyers of the state, died shortly before 12 o'clock last nlpht at his home, 835 Marshall street, at the age of 43 years, having failed to rally from the shock of a sur gical operation performed at a local hos pital recently.. Judge Hailey was a na tive of Oregon and was widely known in both this state and in Idaho, where he spent his boyhood. Thomas Griffin Hailed was the son of John Hailey, wh was formerly delegate In Congress from Idaho, and I.ucmda Griffin Hailey, and was born at La Grande. Or., July 13, lSSn. His parents removed to Idaho during his early childhood and he was reared and educated at Boise. He received his legal training in the office of Cox & Minor at Pendleton, Or., and in the Law Department of Washington and Lee University at Lexington, Va. In 1S89 he opened an office for himself in Pendleton and continued in the prac tice of his profession in that city until the Winter of 190.", when he removed to Salem to fill by gubernatorial ap pointment the place on the Supreme bench of the state, made vacant by the transfer of Judge Wolverton to the Federal Court. , He was for a yeac a member of the law firm of Fee, Carter, Hailey & Austin, with offices at Pendleton and Union, Or., and later became a partner of the late John J. Balleray, of Pendle ton. From 1892 and until 1895, and again from 1902 until he left Pendle ton, he was a partner of Stephen A. Lowell. By all the men thus associat ed with him he was regarded as a lawyer of marked ability, both as an adviser and advocate, and his work as member of the Supreme Court during the year that he was a member of it indicated that he was a jurist of high character. In politics Judge Hailey was a Dem ocrat, and as such was District Attor ney for the Sixth Judicial District from 1900 to 1904, and during a part of that time was Mayor of the city of Pendle ton, declining re-election to both of fices. In both these positions he wa.s an official who recognized the binding force of his oath of office and he ad ministered all laws fully and impar tially. His term as supreme judge expired early in 1907 and he ran for election on the Democratic ticket but was de feated. He then became a member of the firm of Chamberlain, Thomas & Hailey, and located in Portland, where he was rapidly making friends and building up a large practice when his health failed. He was a man of broad vision and public spirit, always interested in the development of the state, and his in fluence was invariably thrown on the side of political decency and civic righteousness. He was a llfe-lonj communicant of the Episcopal Church and a valued member of its councils. Judge Hailey was married in 1892 to Maud L. Beach, of Ackley. Iowa, who, with their two children, Geneveive 2nd Elizabeth, sifvive him. His domestic life was most happy. With a gifted and devoted wife and two young daughters his home was ideal in its charm. Judge Hailey's father, John Hailey, Jr., a brother, both of Boise. Idaho, were at Judge Hailey's bedside with i 231 WASHINGTON STj PORTLAND OR1GON- ' MAKE OF MENS CLOTHES Mrs. Hailey when death came.
