POLITICAL PLOT
Keep Out Legislative Race in
Order to Elect Cham
berlain Senator.
REGISTER AS REPUBLICANS
Minority Faction, However, Opposes
the Plan or Electing Statement
Xo. 1 Candidates of the
Opposing Party.
What appears a concerted purpose of
Democrat throughout Oreg.jn to abstain
'rom makintr nominations lor the legis
lature and instead to combine with Re
publican Statement No. 1 forces,
wherever they shall be defeated,
is the general scarcity of Democratic
andidatea for their party"s nominations
for the lawmaking body. It Is openly
admitted by all Democrats that they want
Legislators elected who are pledged to
support for United. States Senator the
"people's choice" and to disregard the
Republican party's choice.
There are six State Senate districts
made up of two or more counties and
ten Stato Representative districts. In
only two of the Senate districts have
Democrats appeared for nomination and
in only two of trtfe Representative dis
tricts. The entries by petition for the
nominations in these joint districts closed
last Friday. Those in single counties
will close next Wednesday. It is certain
that in the counties, the Democratic
candidate will be correspondingly scarce.
In Multnomah, for example, only one
Democrat has filed a petition for nomina
tion for the Legislature W. C. Farnham.
On the Republican side nearly 50 will
have announced themselves.
Statement Xo. 1 binds the legislator who
ha "taken" it to disregard the choice of
his party for United States Senator.
Democrats have fond hopes that Mr.
Chamberlain, twice elected Governor as
a "non-partisan" Democrat, will be the
"peoples choice" for United States Sen
ator. It is impossible, however, for Dem
ocrats to elect a majority of the next
Legislature. They realize this fully and
are making no effort to capture the Leg
islature. But by pledging Republican can
didates to overlook their party's choice
Tor United States Senator and to vote for
the people's choice, they think they have
a good chance of placing their popular
Governor first in line for the Senatorshlp.
Therefore they are making few legislative
nominations. They plan, evidently, to
await the outcome of the Republican pri
maries, meanwhile lending all their influ
ence to nomination of Statement No. 1
Republican candidates, and- then to unite
with the Republican Statement No. 1
forces, wherever defeated, for election of
fusion Statement No. 1 candidates.
This is a logical inference from the ex
isting order of things political. Demo
crats prefer no legislative ticket of their
own. and but few candidates have ap
peared for their nominations. It la well
known that many Democrats are regis
tering as Republicans In order to partici
pate in the nomination of Republican can
didates. This fact is plain on the records
of the County Clerk. Leaders of the
Democratic party, including George H.
Thomas, county chairman, admit it.
It should be added, however, that a re
bellious element of Democrats in Mult
nomah, demands that its party put up a
full ticket, and refuse to consort with
Republicans. The Kentucky Klick, an
organisation controlled by Democrats, has
put forth a complete ticket, and demands
the nomination of the men named there
on. It Is likely that this demand will be
accomplished. 1
The faction boosting this ticket, how
ever. Is the minority that fought Mayor
tone's nomination last year, and Sheriff
Word's nomination two years ago, on
the ground that they were not straight
Democrats. The non-partisan element of
the Democratic, party was both times as
cendant and it Is doing what it can to
hold down the "straights." The non
partisans are led by L. T. Peery and
John Van Zante, and the straights by
Mark O'Nell, M. J. Malley. 9. C. Armlt
age and other dyed -In-the-woo I patriots.
The few Democratic candidates for the
Legislature are Statement No. 1 men.
The two seeking their party's nomination
for the Senate in joint districts are G.
Springer, in Crook, Grant. Klamath and
Lake Counties, and Turner Oliver, in
Union and Wallowa. The two seeking
joint nomination for the House are Wil
liam Morfltt, in Harney and Malheur,
and W. F. Jackson, in Gilliam, Sherman
and Wheeler. That the crop of Demo
cratic candidates for nomination in the
individual counties will be just as scant,
there is every reason to believe. Of
course, dissatisfied elements in the Demo
cratic, party, just like tne action of
"straights" In Multnomah, could nomi
nate Legislative candidates by writing
their names on the primary ballots. It
remains to be seen whether this will be
done.
With but three days left for filing
counSV primnry nominations, nearly all
the candidates in the two leading parties
have been beaten out of the bushes.
There will be a number of county filings
before the last hour allowed by law for
tiling petitions. & P. M. Wednesday, es
pecially for precinct memberships on the
central committees of the two parties.
Put matters Jiava proceeded so far as
to show most of the contents of the
political pot-pie.
Candidates for offices in the state at
large and In Judicial districts and in
Joint districts of more than one county
were required to file their petitions with
the Secretary of State prior to last Fri
day night. The only way for candi
dates to be voted on in the primaries,
who failed to present their petitions to
the Secretary of State last Friday, or
who shall fail to present them to the
county clerks before the laat hour Wed
nesday, is to have their names "written
in" on the ballots; that is. written by
the voters on the blank spaces which
the law requires on the ballot for that
purpose. The names presented by pe
tition will be printed on the ballot.
By this method of "writing in" Dem
ocrats will nominate Governor Cham tier
lain for United States Senator and per
haps J. J. Whitney for Representative
in Congress for the First District and
J. N. Teal for Railroad Commissioner
In the Second District. Should Mr.
Teal decline to rin. Oglesby Young, of
Portland, will seek the Democratic nom
ination In this manner.
While interest centers In the election
of members of the Legislature, on ac
count of the choice of United States Sen
ator that will be made by that body
next January, there are sharp rivalries
in other directions. There will be hard
primary fights in the Second Congress
ional District for Representative In Con
gress, between W. R. Ellis, T. T. Geer
and George 8 Shepherd, and for Rail
road Commissioner, between C. B. Aitch
Ison. C. C. Loucks. W. H. Hurlburt, Jo
seph Gaston. Howard Whiting and A. N.
Hamilton. Should Aitchison be nominat
ed by the Republicans. Democrats will
make a fight for the office. Oglesby
DEMOCRATS
OHM
Toung has announced his intention of
seeking the place as a Democrat, in that
event.- and if J. N. Teal, named by the
Kentucky Klick of Portland for the
party nomination, should decline to run. .
In the First Congressional District. W.
C. Hawley will have no opposition for
re-election. No Republican will go
against him and a Democrat will make
only a perfunctory run, in order to pro
vide his party with a basis of votes on
which to establish the party's recogni
tion by the direct primary law. That
law says a party shall participate in the
primaries which cast 25 per cent of the
total vote for Congressman in the pre
ceding election.
In this same district there will be a 1
contest for Railroad Commissioner be
tween T. K. Campbell, incumbent, and
W. A. Carter and R. Robertson, all Re
publicans. Campbell's nomination seems
likely, however. In that event he. will
be elected, since Democrats have no
hope of defeating the Republican nomi
nee. The third member of the Railroad
Commission, Oswald West, will not run
for election until 1910. He is a Demo
crat and represents the state at large,
while his two associates each represent
a district.
Other state offices will not be contest
ed with much vigor. J. W. Bailey, State
Dairy and Food Commissioner, will prob
ably be renominated and re-elected, at
least such Is the universal opinion. He
has a rival for the Republican nomina
tion, however. In Dr. Alexander Reid.
Judge Bean, of the Supreme Court, has
no opposition for Republican renomina
tlon and will probably have no "Demo
cratic opponent. Democrats seem satis
fied with the presence on the Supreme
Court, of the two Democratic Commis
sioners, who are serving as associates
of the members of that tribunal.
Next to the fights for seats In the Leg
islature and for the offices of Railroad
Commissioner and Representative In
Congress in. the Second District, are the
contests for county and judicial offices.
There are a number of such contests,
both in the Republican primaries and In
the general election. In Multnomah
County the biggest fight is that for Dis
trict Attorney. The Republican nomina
tion for this office is sought by seven
men and the Democratic nomination will
be received by John Manning, now pos
sessor of the office. There is keen
rivalry also for the office ot Coroner
between several candidates. B. D. Sigler
and A. G. Rushlight are competing
sharply for the office of assessor.
One of the Circuit Judgeships for Mult
nomah County will be hotly contested
for by three Republicans E. C. Bro
naugh. now. holding the office; L. A.
McNary. ex-City Attorney, and W. H.
McGarry. This Is department No. 1.
Democrats will make no effort to win
the office, although they may nominate
a candidate. G. W. Allen having been
named by the Kentutcky Klick. But for
the Judge-ship of department No. 2,
Thomas O'Day, Democratic incumbent
of the office, will make a strong run.
His opponent will be R. W. Morrow, who
has no opposition for the Republican
nomination.
For the District Attorneyship, seven
Republican candidates are competing
with vigor George J. Cameron, now Po
lice Judge; G. C. Moser. ex-deputy un
der Manning: James Cole, ex-deputy
United States Attorney under W. C.
Bristol: R. B. Sinnott. J. N. Davis, Hen
ry Westbrook and B. T. Taggart. Con
siderable opposition has developed
against Cameron's nomination among
Republicans who object to Mayor Lane's
appointing a Democrat Police Judge to
succeed him. In case he should be elect
ed. His successor would hold office a
year and would strengthen the Demo
cratic hold on the city's politics. This
argument ia used by all of Cameron's
rivals.
A big fight Is In progress for control of
the county central committees oi eacn
party. Two factions in each are striving
for mastery.
The county central committee are com
posed of one member for eac"i of the
116 county precincts. These members are
elected in the primaries by the voters of
the respective parties. The county com
mlttees, thus formed, constitute the
county "organization." The committees
nossess Influence In tne direction oi con
trolling party utterances and electing
delegates to county conventions. The
county conventions are Important for
their selection of delegates to state con
ventions, which, within two months, will
choose delegates to the National conven
tions and nominate candidates for Presi
dential electors for Oregon.
Two years ago there was no fight for
control of either the 'Democratic or the
Republican central committee. Now the
Idleman-Cake-Cohen-Davis element wants
to continue in control of the Republican
county committee and the Thomaa-Malley
element in control of the Democratic
committee. F. E. Reed is leading a fight
for mastery of the Republican committee
and John Van Zante for mastery of the
Democratic committee. The two factions
in each party are naming their candidates
for precinct committeemen and organizing
the precincts for their election In the
primaries.
C. M. Idleman, chairman of the Re
publican County Committee, contem
plates resigning, on account of his at
tachment to Statement No. 1. and his
dislike of the county convention plat
form that turned down Statement No.
1 a month ago. Idleman fought the
anti-Statement resolution until he per
ceived that it could not be defeated.
Then he offered a successful amend
ment to the resolution, as It was pre
sented by G. W. Stapleton and S. C.
Beach, calling on candidates for the
Legislature to pledge themselves to
support the party's nominee for United
States Senator.
Idleman, while desiring to support
Statement No. 1 after the convention
adjourned, persuaded himself to stand
on the convention platform, and there
has stood ever since. He succeeded In
bringing the members of the Hodson
legislative ticket to do the same, after
they had announced themselves In fa
vor of the "people's choice If a Repub
lican." This the Idleman forces showed
was repudiation of the county platform,
and the Hodson candidates quickly
changed their pledge on their primary
petitions to read, "Will vote for Re
publican, voters' choice for United
States Senator."
But now that a Statement No. 1 ticket
has come forth, Idleman desires to give
it support. To do this, he will have lo
resign the county chairmanship and get
off the convention platform. One of the
men who has done this is Ben Selling,
candidate for State Senator, who was
permanent chairman of the convention.
Another Is C. W. Nottingham, also candi
date for .State Senator. who fought
Statement No. 1 in the convention. The
presence of these men in the statement
camp is said to be sufficient precedent
for entrance of Idleman Into the same
camp. The Statement No. 1 forces have a
complete Legislative ticket, consisting of
Ben Selling, C. W. Nottingham. H. R.
Albee. Dan Kellaher and A. H. Wlllett.
for the Senate: and B. C. Alt man. L. D.
Mahone. James Abbott, "W. J. Clemens,
Fred J. Brady, J. C. Bryant, K. C Couch.
J. F. Casoidy. L. M. Davis. E. J. Jaeger.
A. W. Orton. C. J. McDonald. W. C.
Belt, for the House.
About one-third of the Republican
Legislative candidates who have appeared
in Multnomah Oounty and in the joint
districts are pledged to Statement No. 1,
while the others are pledged to the Re
publican party choice or are unpledged.
This encourages the statement forces to
believe that by uniting the statement vote
they can defeat the divided opposition.

ORDER 0. R. & N.
TO CUT TARIFFS
(Continued From First Page.)
$7233; passenger, mail, express earnings
from Jl.OSO.670 to $3.576.5SS. or an Increase
per mile from $715.59 to $2742. During the
same period the number of tons per
freight train mile Increased from 183.37
to 449.5. At the same time the percent
age of operating expenses to earnings
decreased from 54.37 per cent to 49.08 per
cent.
At the healing of the complaint Mr.
Teal, for the Chamber of Commerce, de
clared that the above figures had been
juggled in the interest of the railroad.
He contended that in addition to the
surplus there had been expended be
tween 1897 and 1906 and charged to oper
ating expenses direct, the following
items: For maintenance of road and
construction, $12,210,523; for maintenance
of equipment, $6,366,789. Allowing ex
penditures for Insurance, a depreciation
fund and other Items that were charged
to profit and loss. Mr. Teal declared that
the company still had on hand enough
money to wipe out all of Its bonds and
nearly all of its preferted stock.
The strong point sought to be estab
lished by the Chamber of Commerce at
the hearing of the complaint which was
held November 4 to 8 last, was, notwith
standing the great increase in the com
pany's surplus and the decreased cost
of operation, the charges exacted for
transportation of merchandise and com
modities of all kinds under theadistrlbu
tive rates In effect from Portland' to
points within the state reached by the
defendant company's system had been
reduced only slightly and remained sub
stantially the same as -they had been
for years. It -was contended that the
company's object In maintaining its ex
cessive charges was to return to the
corporation an unreasonable and unjust
profit upon the capital actually invested.
Test Ruling in Courts.
Should the Commission ordec the O.
R. & X. to readjust Its tariffs In accord
ance with the prayer of the Chamber
of Commerce,' it is probable the corpora
tion will test in the courts the constitu
tionality of the act creating the Commis
sion and the extent of its powers In pre
scribing and regulating rates. This Is
considered practically certain. In view of
the recent decisions in Montana and
North Carolina, where legislative acts,
establishing reduced tariffs and Impos
ing heavy penalties for violations, were
held to be unconstitutional. But the
member of the Oregon Commission
maintain that the Montana and North
Carolina cases were essentially different
from that pending in this state. In
those states the defendant corporations
were required to carry their cases to
the Supreme Court, while in this state
the proceedings of the Commission are
subject to review in a suit for equity
that can be brought in the State Circuit
Court for Marion County.
"In the Minnesota case," said Mr.
Aitchison. a member of the Commission,
yesterday, "special commodity rates
were put Into effect by the State
Legislature reducing the rates " on
grain, lumber and its products, sheep
cattle and hogs, and soft coal. The law
took effect June 1 last, and proceedings
were brought in the United States Court
before Judge Lochren, to enjoin Attorney-General
Toung from enforcing the
penalties provided in the act for viola
tions of the rates established by the Leg
islature. A temporary injunction was
granted.' but Toung disregarded the or
der of the court for the purpose of test
ing the validity of the law. Young was
adjudged guilty of contempt.
Questlon of State Rights.
"Before the Supreme Court the point
involved -was whether an action
brought against an executive officer of
a state to prohibit him from enforcing
a state statute was against the state,
or if it was not In the power ,of the
Judicial department of the United
States, as limited by the Eleventh
Amendment to the Constitution. It
was held by the Supreme Court that
eueh a case is not In prohibition of the
amendment, and that the Attorney
General was in contempt for seeking
to enforce the statute.
"The result will be that wherever, by
reason of diversity of citizenship, the
Federal Court takes Jurisdiction and
enjoins state officers from enforcing
state statutes, then state laws must re
main unenforced until the Federal
Court passes on the constitutional ques
tion. It will be Incumbent on state
officers to desist from enforcing state
statutes whih the United States Courts
order a writ of injunction to Issue for
that purpose. But It does not follow
that an injunction always will issue.
In Missouri, Judge McPherson refused
to enjoin the 2-cent rate- until after It
had been given a test.
"The North Carolina statute was de
clared Invalid because the penalties
provided were so severe that they were
practically confiscatory. The penalties
for a single day's violation of the stat
utes. In view of the innumerable viola
tions an ordinary road would make,
were sufficient to absorb all of the as
sets of the road and send the officers
and employes of the road to Jail in

Decisions Do Xot Apply.
"Neither of these cases affects us in
Oregon, where we have always conced
ed that when proper Jurisdictional facts
are presented the action of the Com
mission In fixing either the service or
rates of a transportation company, are
subject to review unless It Is apparent
that the decision of the Commission is
reasonable and should stand. The-Commission
of this state would hardly put
itself In the position of acting in de-
RIGHTFOOD
How the Baby Was Saved.
"When our first baby came it was
soon apparent that his mother could
not nurse him and it became necessary
to feed him artificial food. We tried
everything recommended by our fam
ily doctor, then consulted several other
physicians In succession.
"We experimented with nearly every
artificial food but could barely keep
the baby alive, and at the age of five
months he weighed no more than at
birth. When eight months old he had
gained very little, and his stomach
and bowels were in such a condition
that we despaired of raising him.
"A chance acquaintance recommend
ed Grape-Nuts, and we commenced
feeding him on it. soaking It until soft
in warm water, as milk would not stay
on bis stomach.
"From the very first we saw that we
had found the right food at last and
he began to Improve immediately. We
fed him on Grape-Nuts In this way and
absolutely nothing else for several
mouths, and he grew so fast and be
came so fat and strong that our
friends were surprised and could
scarcely believe that It was the same
child.
"He did not even begin, to crawl or
cut. his teeth until after we put him
on Grape-Nuts. Until that time he
was weak and helpless and cried near
ly all the time. Now he is a strong.

"I don't think the penalties Imposed
by the Oregon statutes are so uncon
scionable as to be considered in the
same class with those In the North Car
olina case. We have no provision for
Jail sentences. Besides, the only means
for judicial review afforded in the
North Carolina case was by criminal
proceeding against some officer or

provides a simple and speedy means of
reviewing the Commission's orders by
a suit In equity In the State Circuit

"The act creating the Oregon Rail
road Commission is very similar to that
of the State of Wisconsin. The Wiscon

modifications, by Ohio, Montana and

the Louisiana Commission as being,
without doubt, the latest and best type
of a Commission law."
ROBBER CAUGHT IN ACT
Man Arrested by Sherirf Also Admits
Hold-up.
Through information furnished by
Motorman Charles Holmes and Conductor
James McGowan, of a Mount Scott car.
Sheriff Stevens and Deputies Leonard,
Bulger and Woods, captured Jack Funk
hauser, a dangerous" highwayman, Satur
day night. The car crew reported to the
Sheriff that two suspicious characters had
ridden to the city from iMount Scott, and
hastily summoning his deputies. Sheriff
Stevens started for the car terminals,
where the men were found taking a Ful
ton car.
The officers shadowed the men to Ful
ton and there caught them attempting to
enter the home of Ed Coffin. Failing to
break into the residence, the men re
turned to the street, where they were ar
rested by the Sheriffs party.
One of the robbers was a mere youth
and he was al'owed to go after explaining
that he had been forced to accompany
the older roan, whom he did not know. The
other prisoner, who gave his name as Jack
Funkhauser was later Identified by G.
M. Williams, of Clackamas Station, as
the highwayman that held him up Friday
night. Funkhauser confessed and also ad
mitted that he intended to hold up the
Sell-wood bank today and then leave the
country. The officers expect that more
crimes will be fixed on Funkhauser.
