LINKING OF TWO NATIONS
Baltic Agreement Between Sweden
and Russia Sealed by Ceremony.
Salutes and Pealing of Bells
Attend Marriage Services.
ST. PETERSBURG, May S. Prince Wil
helm, of Sweden, second son of King Gus
tave. the popular sailor prince who visited
America in 1907, was married this after
noon to Grand Duchess Marie Pavlovna,
cousin of the Emperor of Russia and
daughter of Grand Duke Paul Aiexandro
vitch. The ceremony took place at Tsar-skoe-Selo
and was accompanied by all
the pomp and brilliant display character
istic of the most stately court In Europe.
In the evening a great state banquet
was served, at which toasts were drunk
to the good understanding- between
Sweden and Russia recently readied in
the Baltic agreement, to which today s
wedding, the first in modern times between
the ruling houses of the two countries,
puts the seal.
The beginning of the nuptial ceremonies
was announced by the firing of five guns
simultaneously at 9 o'clock this morning
by the battery at Tsarskoe-Selo and uy
the fortress of St. Peter and St. Paul In
St. Petersburg. The thunder of salutes
was heard almost uninterruptedly
throughout the afternoon and evening.
Few See Orthodox Ceremony.
The wedding guests who took part In
the ceremony assembled at 2:30 o'clock in
the afternoon at the great palace at
Tsarskoei3elo. Only Premier Stolypln,
the members of the cabinet, the president
of the Douma and the president of the
council of state, the principal Ambassa
dors to Russia and their wives and a few
of the highest dignitaries of tne empire
found place 1n the small blue anu gold
chapel of the palace where the orthodox
ceremony was performed. The other
guests were stationed, according to their
rank In the various salons through which
the bridal procession passed. .
The robing of the bride was performed
In accordance with court custom in the
private apartments of the Empress. She
was dressed by the Empress and the
Dowager Empress, assisted by their
maids of honor and their ladles
In waiting. The bride wore on her
head a jeweled diadem, and from her
shoulders hung a long trained mantle of
strawberry velvet lined with ermine. In
the procession the tram of this garment
was borne by five court chamberlains.
As soon as the bride had been completely
arrayed Prince Wilhelm was notified by
the master of ceremonies and conducted
to the Inner apartment, where Grand
Duchess Marie was awaiting.
Start of the Procession.
A. salute of 21 guns and a blare of
trumpets announced the start of the pro
cession. At Its head cam the Dowager

Duke Ferdinand and Crown Princess
Marie of Roumanla. attended by the
court ushers and marshals and other
functionaries. Then arm-in-arm came
the bridal pair. Behind the young couple
marched Prince Nicholas and Prince
Andrew of Greece, and their wives;
Prince Christopher of Greece, and Prince
Carl of Sweden and his wife.
The guests from foreign courts were
followed by more than a score of Rus
sian grand dukes and grand duchesses
Including the three oldest daughters of
Emperor Nicholas, Grand Duchess Olga,
Grand Duchess Tatiana and Grand
Duchess Marie, the eldest being 13 years
old. The Grand Duchesses, like all the
invited ladles, wore the picturesque court
costume of high pearl-encircled caps, and
low-cut dresses.
Service In the Chapel.
The Imperial guests were received at
the chapel doors by the metropolitan of
the court and a number of priests. After
the Emperor had been blessed and
sprinkled with holy water, he conducted
the bridal pair to the dais before the
great golden gates on the high altar.
The wedding rings were brought from
the altar on golden salvers and placed
upon the fingers of the bride and bride
groom by the Emperor's confessor.
The Metropolitan then completed the
rites of the Russian marriage service,
two of the bride's nearest relative hold
ing crowns over the heads of the bridal
pair during the ceremony. While the Te
Deum was being chanted an Imperial
salute of 101 guns was fired. The pro
cession then returned to one of the ante
salons, where the Lutheran marriage
ceremony was performed by the Swedish
Bishop of Lund. This brought the after
noon programme to an end.
Banquet In the Evening.
The nuptial dinner was served at 7:30
o'clock In the evening. Chamberlains and
gentlemen of the court stood behind the
chairs of the imperial and royal guests
and presented the various dishes and
wines to them. Toasts were drunk to
the Emperor and Empress of Russia, to
the bridal pair and to their parents, to
the imperial family and to their loyal
Russian suojects. i
After the dinner the members of the
Imperial family and their royal guests
participated in a polonaise. This stately
progress around the great reception hall
had something in the nature of the
Hohenzollern torch dance.
After this function, the guests were
driven In state to the Alexander palace,
the private residence of the Emperor, the
bridal pair riding with their sponsors in
a gala equipage. The Emperor, the" Em
press and the Dowager Empress were
surrounded by torch-bearers and escorted
by a company of the Emperor's Cossack
guards in brilliant blue and scarlet uni
forms. At a late hour in the evening the bridal
pair took a special train for St. Peters
burg, where the honeymoon will be passed
at the palace of the late Archduke
Sergius.
During the day there were services In
all the churches of the empire and in St.
Petersburg church bells pealed through
out the entire afternoon.

"LION IN HIS DEN"
Representative Eaton Talks to
Linn County Grange.
BILL FOR APPROPRIATION
Author of University Measure De
fends It Before Organization That
Invokes Referendum on It.
Session Given to Subject.
ALBANY, Or., May 3. (Special.)
"Bearding the lion in his den," was the
experience yesterday of Allan Eaton,
Representative from Lane County, author
of the University of Oregon appropriation
bill, who addressed the Linn County
Council of the Grange, which originated
the movement invoking the referendum
on the appropriation. Eaton spoke in
defense of the appropriation and was as
sisted by Professor L. R. Ackerman, of
Eugene, president of the University of
Oregon alumni. Eugene Palmer and Cy
rus H. Walker, who have been the lead
ers In the referendum movement, spoke in
support of the effort to defeat the appro
priation. The Linn County Council met with Oak
Plain Grange near Shedds in a public
meeting notable in that the leaders of
both the supporters and opponents of the
University appropriation were present.
The entire afternoon was given over to
this measure. The two Eugene men were
present for the discussion upon the in
vitation of the Grange.
Representative Eaton was the first
speaker, and gave in detail the needs of
the University of Oregon, the causes for
the increased appropriation, and how the
money would be expended. He was fol
lowed by Professor Alderman, who spoke
in general defense of higher education
and the State University In particular,
and told of the injurious effects which
would follow if the referendum on the ap
propriation should be sustained.
Following these arguments. Eugene
Palmer spoke in defense of the referen
dum movement, and Cyrus H. Walker
followed him. Both speakers asserted
that the movement was not particularly
against the University, but was in gen
eral check of excessive appropriations
and the means by which they were se
cured In the Legislature.
The morning session of the Council was
devoted to Grange business, and some im
portant action was taken. The Linn
County delegation to the State Grange
was instructed not to bring up the ques
tion of the University appropriation be
fore the State Grange unless forced to do
so. '

the making of any laws regulating their
business. If they cannot defeat the enact
ment of such laws then they defiantly or
surreptitiously break them. This Insolent
disregard for alt law has been one of the
potent agencies for arousing public opinion
against the saloon and the liquor business.
The liquor men have no regard either for
the laws of God or of man. In harmony
with this principle of action, the liquor
forces of the state are once again endeavor
ing to destroy our local option law. The
Mayor of Medford. a tool of the llqur deal
ers, has presented an amendment to the
Constitution of our state whereby it Is
proposed that incorporated towns and cities
may have what he terms "home rule." The
real p'urpose of this amendment Is to nullify
all the criminal laws of the state as far at
cities and towns are concerned. Now there
are several reasons why I am opposed to
this amendment.
A little town of 200 people could Incor
porate and run saloons and dens of vice
In the midst of a county where the over
whelming majority of the people were op
posed to the liquor business. A county
might vote "dry" but 125 voters In a town
of 20o citizens could vote to have the saloons
In that town and thus force upon the peo
ple of the entire county to accept the pres
ence of saloons and also make the people
of that county . bear the entire expense of
the poverty, crime and misery produced
by the damnable business.
In the second place, this proposed amend
ment would permit the lawless element to
control the whole question of regulating the
saloon, the gambling den and all other
places of vice. The people who are willing
to mate a living by debauching and destroy
ing the boys and girls of our cities and
towns would virtually be beyond the power
o-f the state to control. They could run
wide-open towns by colonizing enough votes
to carry the town "wet" and by electing
their own officers, absolutely ignore all pub
llo sentiment for moral decency and once
again be In a place where they could de
fiantly ask the people "What are you going
to do about it?"
To pass this amendment would mean
the nullification of our local option law and
place the whole state In the hands -of the
gamblers, the divekeepers, liquordealers and
the entire horde of corrupt politicians who
In the past have lived by graft and the ex
ploitation of city vices.
1 am opposed to this amendment because
It Is proposed by those who have no regard
for the moral welfare of the community.
There Is not a solitary moral argument in
favor of this amendment. The whole pur
pose is to once again put the government
of our towns and cities Into the bands of
the Immoral forces. The people who believe
In the progress of our state, commercially,
morally. Intellectually and politically will
work and vote against this amendment. The
friends of local option need . to be aroused.
The 'people need to understand that thla
proposed amendment Is simply a deception
both In Its wording and in Its purpose. In
the wide sweep of temperance reform across
the country. Oregon will have a foremost
plaoe. The people now have an opportunity
to defeat this amendment with such an
overwhelming majority that the liquor deal
ers will learn that it Is a waste of time
and money for them to attempt to destroy
our local option law or dodge the enforce
ment of It when once the peple in a district
or county have decided that the saloon must
go.
There Is not a solitary moral argument
in favor of the saloon. It is a lawless busi
ness and the center of lawlessness and
crime. It pauperizes labor and destroys Its
efficiency. It Injures business, for there
are hundreds of towns that can testify to
the large Increase of business where the
saloons have been abolished. It Is the most
deadly foe ever conceived of the American
home. Shame, disgrace and degradation
follow In Its wake. No government can
afford to take revenue from a traffic that
causes ten times as much expense to take
caro of its results as it brings revenue to
the government. What shall It profit a
town, a county or a state to gain revenue
and debauch its citizenship? I trust the
people will vote "No" to the Reddy amend
ment and at the same time wipe out the
saloons on the East Side by an overwhelm
ing majority.

New York Cotton Exchange Is
Under the Lash.
KNOX SMITH IS SEVERE
Method of Fixing Prices Unfair and
Drives Cotton Merchants Into
Ruin Plea of Necessity Is
Not a Good Excuse.
WASHINGTON, May 3. In the report
on the operations of the cotton exchanges
which he has prepared in response to a
resolution of the House of Representa
tives, Herbert Knox Smith, the .Commis
sioner of Corporations, unsparingly con
demns the methods pursued by the New
York Cotton Exchange and declares that,
if it cannot exist without those methods,
it ought not to exist at all.
The principal subject of inquiry was
the differences between the price of
middling cotton and other grades. All
future contracts are based on the price
of middling, but the seller may deliver
any grade and the exchange fixes the
differences between the price of middling
and the grades actually delivered. The
New York exchange has a committee
which fixes these differences every six
months and there are often wide vari
ations between the differences thus fixed
and the differences as shown by sales of
actual cotton. The New Orleans exchange
fixes the differences dally on the basis
of actual transactions. The New York
system is called the "fixed" and the New
Orleans system the "commercial" differ
ences. Causes Failures In South.
After pointing out the defects in the
New York system, Mr. Smith says:
The foreign criticisms were strikingly
Illustrated In November, 1906. as the result
of the failure of the New York revision com
mittee to establish correct differences. Owing
to abnormal weather conditions, the com
mercial values of the lower grades of cot
ton fell very sharply from the price of
middling. The revision committee failed to
adjust Its "fixed" differences to the actual
situation and established differences of law
grades which very heavily overvalued them.
As a result the future contract price at
New York dropped abruptly from the price
of spot middling, to the tremendous loss of
a vast number of holders of future con
tracts for cotton and the profit of the few
experts who understood and anticipated thJ
effect of the system. Hundreds of men
also, wno had hedged cotton by ttuylnff
contracts In New York, were injured by this
striking dlHturbanre In the parity. A num
ber of failures In the South w-ere chargoJ
to this one cause alone. One result has
been to reduce hedging In New York, as
the possibilities of its artificial system were
thus disclosed.
As pointed out shove, such a disastrous
disturbance In the parity Is exactly what is
brought about by the errors in the fixed
differences in New York.
Mr. Smith approves the New Orleans
sys'tem, saying the trouble Is only In oc
casional careless or improper application
of It. He continues:
New York Not a Market. ,
There is at present a fundamental differ
ence in conditions between the New York
and the New Orleans market, which doubt
less Is one reason for the difference insys
tem, though by no means an excuse there
for. Under modern conditions of transpor

tation, with the through bill of lading avail- I
able, New York Is no longer a natural spot
cotton market. Cotton usually takes the
cheapest route to the mills, and this route .
does not include a stop-over at New York.
As a result transactions in spot cotton In
New York are quite small, and thus there is
not in New York such a market In actual
cotton as will furnish reliable quotation
to be used In fixing contract differences.
This, however, does not prevent the appli
cation of the commercial-difference principle
In substance to future contracts in New
York. The commereial differences existing
in the leading Southern spot markets can
be used as a basis for contract differences.
It would not be strictly necessary to revl&e
the contract differences as often as changes
In such commercial differences occur. If
the contract differences were revised weekly
or even monthly the substantial advantages
of the commercial-difference system could
be secured. j
No Excuse for Existence.
It Is contended by many that such a re
turn to the commercial-difference system
would, because of the disadvantages of New
York's location, destroy the business of the
New York Cotton Exchange. There Is little
reason to believe that any such result would
occur. However this may be, the New York
Cotton Exchange, If It can not exist under
a juet and equitable system, has no excuse
for existence at all. The present New York
system of fixed differences Is uneconomic,
in defiance of natural law, unfair. -and, like
all other attempts to defy natural law. re
sults In such complex and devious effects
that the benefit of its transactions accrues
only to a skilled few.
CONFERENCE SESSIONS END
Bishop Hogue Preaches Sermon to
Free Methodists.
Stirring services were held in the First
Free Methodist Church, East Mill and
East Ninth streets, yesterday. The meet
ings marked the close of the conference
gatherings. Bishop Wilson Thomas Hogue
preached the morning sermon. He said
in part :
"We must not think that we alone will
enter the kingdom of God, for if this
church alone made up the population of
Heaven, there would not be many in
1 Heaven, for we are few in number. A
great many people will get to Heaven
whom we never dreamed could get there.
Some will not get to Heaven whom we
thought were sure to reach Heaven. Some
will be surprised that they get to Heaven.
No, brethren, there will be a great many
people go ' to Heaven outside the Free
Methodist Church. Travel will teach any
one that other people know more than
we do. I believe in large families. When
I stop at a house where there are no
children. I feel like going outside and
find some children for the chlldlej-s
family. S I think the Lord will have
a great big family in Heaven, and they
will come from a great many souives.
The Lord takes a great many in infancy
before they have sinned. Hn will gather
from the heathen lands according: to their
enlightenment. Somehow tho l)rd will
save a great many ppople. 1 do not
ascribe all saving power to th Free
Methodist Church, although if? was born
In tribulation and persecution and I was
born into it In the midst of that storm
myself, it has continued to live in spite
of the predictions that it munt pass away,
and I am not ashamed of the company I
am with.V
For over an hour and a half Btsbop
Hogue continued to speak with great
force and eloquence, pressing home the
doctrine of holiness and sunctiflcation,
and love to neighbor, which are the cardi
nal principles of the Free Methodist
Church, and he closed with a powerful
plea for a deeper consecration of the
entire being to the cause of salvation.
During the delivery of the sermon, the
speaker held the entire audience and
swayed It as one person, sometimes
rousing the people to heights of spiritual
ecstacy, then convulsing them with
laughter, and again turning their laughter
into tears. At the close of tho discourse
