PARTY T1KS TO BE CEMENTED
Kcpubllcans Plan Meetlncs and
Banquets Next Week.
Cnanimons support of the entire Re
publican ticket by the successful candi
dates in the primary election and the sup
)ort of the successful candidates by the
defeated aspirants are the objects sought
to he promoted by political functions that
will be held probably before the close of
next week. The central Idea that is to
be emphasized is the absence of sore spots
and a general declaration to support the
nominees of the majority party for- elec
tion in June.
The Union Republican Club has planned
R genuine old-fashioned love feast that
will be held next Friday night. Mav 1.
In the old Elks' Hall, on the top floor
of the Marquam building, when the suc
cessful candidates of the Republican pri
maries are to be banqueted. At the same
time the unsuccessful candidates for the
same offices are expected not only to be
present and assist In the entertainment
of the party's nominees, but to pledge
their allegiance to the candidacy of their
late opponents. It Is probable that the
programme on this occasion will include
addresses by the successful as well as the
defeated candidates, the sole purpose of
the event being to Insure harmony within
the party and among the rival candidates
for nomination in the late primary elec
tion. A. O. Rushlight, unsuccessful candidate
for the Republican nomination of Asses
sor, has proposed that the defeated can
didates In the recent primary election
tender to their successful candidates a
banquet, probably some time next week.
The plan proposes that the defeated can
didates shall be the hosts and shall fur
nish the entertainment for their success
ful rivals. Aside from the pleasure audi
a banquet would afford, the real purpose
to be served Is to disprove the report that
the Republican party is embarrassed by
factional strife. The date for this event
will be announced when the details have
been arranged.
BORAH BILL WILL PASS
Irrigation Measure Has Numerous
Friends and Xo Opposition.
ORBGONIAN NEWS Bl'RKA l. Wash
ington, April 1.4 I'nless unexpected oppo
sition develops, the Rorah townsite bill
should pas and become a law before the
close of the present session of Oonnresa.
This bill, whkrh permits use of moneys
derived from the sale of lots In townsites
on Government irrigation projects for the
erection of schoolhouses. construction of
, sewer and water systems, etc.. Is heartily
.Indorsed by the Reclamation Service, and
there ts comparatively little opposition.
The arguments against the bill are more
than offset by the benefit that would
result from Its passage, and the fact that
Uie proposed law would benefit every
town established on a Government project
will secure it strong backing from West
ern men in both branches of Consreas.
In his report on the bill, made by direc
tion of the committee on Irrigation, Sena
tor Borah says:
t'nder the rrent reclamation at there
f no pnr talon of law bv which Impror
mnta can be made tr the proper develop
ment of the Iowm durtn the period b
for their Incorporation an4 at a tim when
It in fmposjrihl to levy rae. and at a time
when the greater part of the aurroundlrtir
country la held by iwttlera tinder homeMead
ertrle. and therefore not wbject to taxa
tion. The condition It now exu-ts under
th reclamation act h ben found to ham
per and practtcaily prevent the development
of towna upon the adjacent reclamation
projects. There ara no means by which
e-hoolhounen, ae-wers, or aMewalka or ceme
teries or ot her necesaary puMtc Improve
menta can be had. In the matters of edu
cation and health such towna are In a lara-e
dffre help cm. The extent to w hlch, such
towns are Injured and retarded In their de
velopmnt and arom-th Is manifest to all who
have observed the matter, and there Is a
demand from the towns upon the reclama
tion projects for this kind of legislation.
Towns upon the Carey projects, aide by side.
slmoRt. with the towns upon the reclama
tion projects, have moved ahead, have fine
educational facilities, healthy sewer sys
tems, of whlrh the reclamation towns arc
entirely deprived.
The bill has been thoroughly a-one over
by the department bavins- In charge the
reclamation service and Is made with the
approval of the department. It betnr deemed
absolutely essential that some means be
provided by which the health and the edu
cational Interests of the people In thta vi
cinity can be taken care of.
It is also considered that the amount ex
pended for these purposes will be well repaid
in the increased value of town lota which
the law will undoubtedly bring about.
The measure especially provides for the
turning- over of the public enterprises,
schools, etc.. as soon as the towns are or
ganised under state or territorial law and
are prepared to take over the same. The
department will nA. be called upon to have
the supervision of the improvements any
longer thnn the organization of tha town.
In fact, the bill is designed to meet a great
necessity arising- out of the situation as It
exists until the town is properly incorpor
ated and taken care of under state or terri
torial laws.

An indication of the predicament of
many Democratic voters when they went
to the polls and found the names of
hardly any Democratic candidates print
ed on their ballot ' is discovered in the
fact that every Republican candidate
for county offices received a part of the
Democratic nominating vote. Evidently
some of the Democrats simply took a
Republican sample, ballot and wrote in
the Hepubllcan names. from County
Commissioner to County Coroner.

IRISH TO HOLD MEETING
Will Kxpress Their Sympathy With
Home Kule Movement.
In response to an appeal to Irish -Americans
from the Home Rule lead
ers in Ireland, a mafs meeting of Irish
residents will be held tomorrow after
noon at 2:3 o'clock in Woodmen of
the World Hall to express their sym
pathy with the campaigrn which Is be
in? carried on in the British Parlia
ment at the present time to secure
home rule for Ireland. Addresses will
be made by prominent Irishmen and a
musical programme will also be ren
dered. It la reported to .the Irish in this
city that a decidedly unfavorable state
of affairs has developed in the Irish
Home Rule situation since the death
of Premier Campbell-Bannerman. who
was an ardent Home Rule advocate,
and strong" sympathizer with the am
bition of the Irish people for self
government. The elevation of Mr. As
quit h to the head of the IJheral party
and his changes in the present Cabi
net have been taken by Nationalist
members of the British Parliament as
a move to sidetrack the Home Rule
issue in spite of the fact that within
the last month the House of Commons
by a large majority passed a resolu
tion favoring Home Rule.
Among the speakers at tomorrow
afternoon's meeting will be Dr. An
drew C. Smith, M. G. Munly. Wallace
McCamant and E. S. J. McAllister. The
committee on arrangements is com
posed of the following: J. J. McCar

District Attorney Manning
Does Not Fear Reversal
by Supreme Court.
CONGRATULATED BY MANY
Prosecutor or Title Guarantee A
Vrnst President Commended on
Kvery Hand Five Months ot
Hard Work Successful.
District Attorney Manning yesterday
returned from Salem, where he suc
cessfully prosecuted J. Thorburn Ross,
president of the defunct Title Guaran
tee A Trust Company, for the conver
sion of state school money. Mr. Man
ning naturally feels elated over the
result of the case, which represented
five months work to him. But he was
not the only resident of Portland who
took an interest in the trial and was
gratified with the result. All day yes
terday he was kept busy at his office
receiving congratulations from many
friends and from depositors in the sus
pended bank who had followed the trial
and felt confident of a verdict for the
prosecution. Mr. Manning said yester-

day that he did not fear the result of
the appeal to the Supreme Court which
will be taken hy the defense. He is
confident that the case was tried clear
ly within the statutes.
When the bank, of which Ross was
president, suspended last Kali and re
ports became current that its affairs
were in a confused if not a criminal
condition, including the alleged misap
propriation of state funds, Mr. Manning
immediately began an Investigation of
the institution. Determining the ac
tual condition of the bank, he first suc
cessfully concluded negotiations by
wnicn an depositors were guaranteed
their deposits and an Eastern bonding
company entered an agreement to re
imburse the state for its claims against
the hank. After Mr. Manning had se
cured to the state and to individual de
positors the full liquidation of their
claims, he caused the indictment of the
officials of the bank under the state
law which prohibits the loaning of
state school funds by banks.
Repeated efforts by Mr. .Manning to
bring the defendants to trial were de
feated through the dilatory tactics re
sorted to by the defense, which inter
posed objection after objection and mo
tions without number. These obstruc
tive tactics were exhausted finally and
then a motion was presented for a
change of venue. This was resisted
by Mr. Manning, who maintained that
the bank officials could be given a fair
and impartial trial in Multnomah
County, but a majority of the judges
ot the court decided adversely and the
case was transferred to Marion County,
where it was tried before Judge Bur
nett. The trial began Monday and went
to the jury at 3 o'clock Thursday after
noon. A verdict of guilty was returned
an hour later.

hardwood timber grown, MAHOGANY, LIGNUM VITAE, BALSAM C0P0EBA, MANGROVE,
OAK and CEDAR.
This timber just costs the company 20 cents per thousand feet, and when milled into lumber
has a value of $100 to $400 per thousand.
The Northwestern Exploration & Development Company has just closed a deal by which they
take over this immense body of timber, and we will put in a mill and manufacture and market this
very valuable lumber.
In order to secure the necessary capital to install a mill of sufficient capacity, the Board of
Directors has decided to sell a limited amount of its sock at 20 gents per share, par value $1.00.
Conservatively estimated, each 20 cents invested in a share of this stock is secured by 1000 feet
of standing timber, which has an intrinsic value of not less than $100.
There is not a commercial enterprise in the whole world which offers you such valuable security
for your investment as this. These are facts and can be proven to your satisfaction.
If you have money to invest, do it now. Here is a chance to secure a remunerative income on a
small investment. Stock sold in blocks of 100 shares and upwards.
