FOOTSTEPS OF LINCOLN
Some of Independence Leaguers
Want Him to Run This-Year, tut
After Careful Consideration
He Decides to Wait.
BY LLOYD F. LONE RG AN.
NEW YORK. May 4. (Special.)
Here is sad news for the bloated
plunderb.und.
William Randolph Hearst Intends to
run for President in 1912.
It seems clearly established now
that the "hero of the common people"
will not lead the forlorn hope this
year. In fact this was freely admitted
by one of his -lieutenants today.
"Hearst intends to be the Lincoln of
our new party," he said, "and he has
not forgotten that Lincoln was not the
first Republican candidate. Fremont
was the original nominee, and Fre
mont, as you will remember, was
Btung. Thomas L. Hisgen, of Massa
chusetts, will probably be our Fremont,
but Hearst Is cast for the role of Lin
coln." The "Lincoln boom" was launched by
'Fremont" Hisgen himself. The
League held a "National banquet" here
the other night, and Mr. Hisgen spoke.
Ills remarks, which appeared exclusive
ly In the New York American, closed
with those words:
"We, of Massachusetts, are ready and
waiting for the opportunity to cle
, vate one of God's great and good men
to the Presidency of the United States,
. . the Honorable William Randolph
Hearst."
Hisgen Slated for the Goat.
That Hisgen is slatod for the role
of goat this year is Indicated by the
American's Introduction to the story
of the banquet. The reference to the
sterling Bay State patriot appears
under this tat, two-column sub-head:
"Hisgen Greated as Next President."
Whether the second word Is meant for
preeted or grated is not clear. Under
the circumstances, "grated" seems a
harpy choice. Then the article goes
on to say:
"Thomas L. Hisgen, the sturdy Inde
pendence fighter of Massachusetts, re
ceived a greeting second only to that
of Mr. Hearst. 'The next President of
the United States' was the cry that
greeted him, and when he had fin
ished telling the banqueters of the en
couraging prospects in the Bay State,
the banqueters only amended their cry
to Our safe and sane next President.' "
By the way, Charles A. Walsh, ex
eccretary of the Democratic National
committee, got In mighty bad at the
League dinner'. Walsh, who comes
from Iowa, Is now managing the
League fight In the Middle West.
When called upon for a speech he re
ceived a flattering amount of applause.
And he opened his address with these
words: "Old Iowa, fair land of corn
and swine, sends greetings,"
Object to the "Swlno."
Many of the diners objected to re
ceiving the glad hand from swine,
even by proxy. But Mr. Walsh wan
dered along. He took as hfs theme the
impossibility of accomplishing reforms
through the old parties, and laced the
Democracy good and proper.
"Can we accomplish our reforms
through this worm-eaten hulk?" he de
manded, referring to the Democratic
organization, "or accomplish reforms
through the Republican machine,
-whose proudest boast is that it is
against Roosevelt, has always been
against him. will always be against
him, and made him an accident in the
first Instance by its efforts to retire
him?"
These remarks the League men de
clare to be in the worst possible taste.
"Everybody knows that one of two men
(will be nominated at Chicago." remarked
en angry district leader. "Taft will be
the Republican candidate or it will be
Roosevelt. If Taft Is named, it will be be
cause he Is the choice of Roosevelt and
because the Roosevelt men vote for him.
Kow where do we stand in that case?
One of our shining lights comes out and
pays that the reason the Republican ma
chine is rotten is because it is against
Roosevelt. That means that a Roosevelt
or a Taft victory would necessitate - a
Virtual indorsement from us. Many of
our leaders are like the famous parrot
they talk too much. Every Independ
ence League speech should be edited be
fore It Is delivered. Then we might have
eome chance."
Hearst Carefully Decides.
The new move on Hearst's part the de
cision not to be a candidate for anything
: this year is said to be the result of care
ful decision. Hearst's original plan was
to head the ticket himself, and have a
prand. Joyous speechifying tour from one
end of the United States to the other.
liFor Hearst enjoys addressing crowds. It
was pointed out to him, however, that
nothing would be gained, and a great deal
might be lost, if he personally made a
noise like a candidate this Summer.
"Let somebody else head the ticket,"
he was advised. "You can make all the
speeches you feel like delivering. Any
frlory will be yours, any blame goes to the
man who heads the ticket." It was also
impressed upon Hearst that he owed it to
the organization to be free to leap into
the Mayor's chair, if the present recount
iroocedirigs are successful. Hearst's law
yer, Clarence J. Shearn, publicly says that
the trial will be over and a decision ren
dered by July 4. Nobody else indulges in
such hopes, owing to the fact that the
"preliminaries" of the trial are still far
from completed.
Programme Outlined lor Hearst.
Despite all delays. Shearn is charmingly
optimistic. Publicly he believes that
Hearst will officially shoot off firecrackers
In the City Hall on Independence day:
privately he looks for a Thanksgiving
proclamation from his chief; but anyhow
he has no doubt as to the final result of
the court proceedings.
The next number on the programme
would naturally be the nomination of
Hearst for President by the Independ
ent League party, or whatever its
name may be that year, and the
crushing defeat of the Republican and
Democratic candidates. In the mean
time, the "party goat," or the "party
Fremont." whichever you care to call
him would be in retirement, if alive,
and glad to accept a commission in
Hie cabinet or the diplomatic service.
It sounds fine in print, and the Leag
uers, who are close to the throne, be
lieve it is a correct forecast of coming
political conditions.
Some of the faithful independents,
however, earnestly, object to such a i
58 Years of "Keeping Faith
Not merely by -searching the
entire world for its choicest
merchandise and marketing it at the fairest possible margin of profit has this im
mense establishment attained its present high standing. That has been a pronounced
factor, to be sure, but back of it, and overshadowing it, is the store's primal policy its
foundation business .ethics of strict integrity in all its dealings and keeping
faith with its patrons at all times.
This principle has been maintained unswervingly for over half a century. That it
has been appreciatea is shown by the public confidence that through all these years
has been placed in the store's reliability a confidence more deeply rooted today, if
possible, than ever before and certainly never better deserved.
The people of Oregon have learned to rely upon the character of Lipman - Wolfe
goods and the moderateness of Lipman-Wolfe prices. They rely on the accuracy of
the advertisements that bear this firm's name, knowing full well that every announce
ment must ring true that a promise here means a performance that every statement
will be carried out to the letter.
The practical expression of that reliance has made this great store possible a splen
did commentary on its fair dealing methods. Surely, honesty is a good policy in
business as well as out and on that good, old-fashioned principle well continue, so
long as this business exists, to " KEEP FAITH " with our patrons.

"I have been voting: for Hearst for
years," was the sad outburst of one
of the "common people" at League
headquarters, "I've cheered him aa
our next Congressman, our next
Mayor, our next Governor and our
next President It has got to be a
habit to vote for Hearst for some
thing: each election, and why should
they make a change now? I don't
want to wait until 1912 to vote for
Hearst for President. Nobody can
tell what any of us will think In four
years. I want to vote for him now, as
I always do."
Glad, to Emulate Lincln.
But Hearst is greatly tickled at the
idea of "treading In the footsteps of
Lincoln," and Mr. Hisgen seems to be
pleased with the role of Fremont.
Students of history, however.declare
that if previous conditions repeat
themselves, Hisgen has a rocky road
ahead. Lincoln was a prominent fac
tor in the first Republican convention
which nominated- Fremont, and
worked hard In an effort to elect him,
but failed. This part of the pro
gramme will surely be carried out to
the letter by Hisgen, Hearst and the
voters of the United States.
Lincoln was nominated by the sec
ond Republican convention. Hearst
will undoubtedly carry the second
League convention, if there is one.
But after his inauguration, Lincoln
quarrelled with Fremont. In 1864 the
latter was the Presidential nominee
of the "Radical" 'Republicans, hoping
to bring about Lincoln's defeat. But
as history says: "The Radical Repub
licans soon disintegrated, and cut ab
solutely no figure in the election."
Poor Mr. Hisgen! He really Is a
pleasant man, and very popular with
the Leaguers now. But if history
repeats itself, he will be a traitor to
his party in 1916.

Jewish Colonial Trust Not to Re
strict Its Operations.
LONDON, May 4. A petition of the
Jewish Colonial Trust, asking power
from the court to restrict its operations
to Palestine, was dismissed this morn
ing by the Court of Chancery. The
trust has a capital of $2,000,000, which
has been subscribed with the object
of promoting the welfare of the Jewish
race in all parts of the world. The
managers of the trust, who were sup
ported by a considerable section of the
stockholders, contended that the col
onization of Palestine and neighboring
territory was the " great ideal of Zion
ism and the only object worth enter
taining." Israel Zangwlll and other
dissenters bitterly opposed the scheme
of limitation.
"It would mean," Mr. ZangwiU de
clared to the court, "sitting down idly
before the closed gates of Zion, the
promised land."
The promised land, he declared, was not
at present attainable, and the proposed
restriction would prevent the trust from
ameliorating; the distress of persecuted
Jews in many parts of the world.
Justice Eve, in dismissing the petition.
took Mr. ZangwiU's view. He said that
if he sanctioned the suggested alteration
he would be doing little to improve the
condition of an oppressed and great peo
ple outside of Palestine.

SUIT FOR PAY BY MAN BIS
. MISSED AT BROWNSVILLE.
Lawyer Contends Enlistment Is Con
tract, but Judge Hints Decision,
Will Be Adverse.
NEW YORK, May 4. For more than
three hours tonight Judge Hough, In the
United States District Court, listened to
arguments which Involved the question
of the right of President Roosevelt sum
marily to dismiss the three companies
of negro soldiers of the Twenty-fifth In
fantry for alleged participation in the
Brownsville riot. The argument was on
a demurrer interposed to a portion of
the answer of the Government in the
action commenced by Private Oscar W.
Reid to recover $122, which sum repre
sented his wages as a soldier from the
date of his dismissal without honor to
the date of the expiration of his enlist
ment. United States District Attorney Stim
son entered a general denial, and al
leged the right of the President to dis
miss the soldiers of these companies
and also referred to the reports of the
various Army inspectors, recommending
such action, making the reports a por
tion of the record of the same. It was
to this portion of the Government's an
swer that Charles El Mellen, counsel for
Private Reid, demurred.
Mr. Mellen contended that the enlisted
men were protected by constitutional
rights, which the President had not the
power to ignore, even as Commander-in-Chief
of the Army and Navy, the en
listment operating really from a legal
view point as a civil contract between the
soldier and the Government.
Judge Hough reserved decision, hut told
Mr: Mellen plainly from the bench that
it would require considerable legal proof
to convince him that the relations of the
enlisted soldier and the Government
amounted simply to a civil contract.
Briefs are to be submitted by Wednes
day, and Judge Hough said he would
take the matter up at the end of the
week.
THINKS MEXICANS ARE GUILTY
Bulkeley's Theory of Brownsville
Raid Fulton Joins in Debate.
WASHINGTON, May 4. Bulkeley of
Connecticut, a member of the military af
fairs committee, spoke at length In the
Senate today on the Brownsville affray.
Bulkeley declared his belief in the inno
cence of the negro soldiers of the Twenty
fifth Regiment, and said the rioters in
the town on the night of August 13-14,
1906, in his judgment, were lawless. Mexi
cans from outside the town, assisted by
the lawless class within Brownsville. He
Insisted that the absence of light in the
city on the night of the raid was suffi
cient to impeach the testimony of wit
nesses who told of seeing negro soldiers.
Borah interrupted to say that the night
in question was an ordinary starlit night,
and that the theory of darkness had
never been suggested except by the men
who wanted it to be a dark night.
Fulton of Oregon stated that, while he
as convinced the shooting up of Browns
ville was done by the negro soldiers, he
favored Foraker's bill requiring the re
enlistment of the men upon their state
ments of Innocence.
Foraker added that this bill had an im
portant feature in its provision that,
should at any time evidence of the guilt
of the men be discovered, they should be
tried either by the civil or military au
thorities, and by having them back In the
Army they could be reported at any time.
The Senate today passed the resolution
appropriating $260,000 to relieve the recent
tornado sufferers In Alabama, Georgia,
Mississippi and Louisiana. This resolu
tion now only requires tho President's
signature to become effective.

preliminaries for such a test case. It is
expected that definite action looking to
ward such a case will be taken within a
Bhort time.
ADVANCE HARRIMAN'S CASE
Motion Before Supreme Court by the
Prosecution Connsel.
WASHINGTON, May 4. In the Su
preme Court of the United States today
a motion was made in behalf of the
Interstate Commerce Commission to ad
vance on the docket the cross-appeals
of the commission and E. H. Harriman
and Otto H. Kahn, the latter of the
New York banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb
& Co., in the cases In which Harriman
and Kahn refused to answer certain
questions propounded by the commis
sion in 1908 in connection with Its in
quiry into the alleged consolidation
and combination of railroads subject to
the interstate commerce laws. The
questions covered a wide range of oper
ations, and the United States Cir
cuit Court for the southern district of
New York, to which the matter was
submitted, directed the witnesses to
make reply to all except those relating
to the purchase of stock by Harriman
In anticipation of the Union Pacific div
idend. Neither party was satisfied with
this solution, and both sides appealed
to the Supreme Court.
The motion to advance was made by
Frank B. Kellogg, C A. Severance and
John H. Marble as counsel for the com.
mission. In presenting their motion,
they dwelt upon its vast Importance be
fore the public interests Involved.

AGAINST BRITISH RULE.
Widespread Movement to Destroy
Officials Foiled by Many Ar-
rests at Calcutta.
CALCUTTA, May 4. The police are
Investigating the native plot revealed
here yesterday to murder Europeans by
means of bombs, and the more thor
oughly they go into the matter the more
widespread does it seem. The authori
ties believe they are facing an attempt
at revolution. A number of prominent
Bengalese are implicated and sensation
al arrests are expected to follow.
An examination of 30 persons arrested
today confirm the gravity of the bomb
conspiracy. Some of those In the hands
of the police denied complicity in the
affair, while others made startling ad
missions regarding the intentions of the
organization against public officials, and
.actual attempts at the use of bombs,
which, however, proved unsuccessful.
IMMUNITY FOR PLOTTERS
Portuguese Assassins So Prominent
Government Dare Not Prosecute.
LISBON, May 4. The government has
completed its investigation into the plot
that led to the assassination last Febru
ary of King Carlos and the Crown Prince
of Portugal, but It would appear that the
conspiracy had so many ramifications and
that so many persons of position are
either suspected or implicated that it had
been decided not to bring any prosecu
tions. Nevertheless, In order to keep up
appearances. King Manuel, when he takes
his oath of office, will grant a general
political amnesty. This, however, will
only cover offenses up to January 30.
The assassinations occurred February 1.
Although King Manuel has expressed
his willingness to repay to the treasury
the money advanced to the late King
Carlos, the Cabinet, on account of the
present condition of the finances of the
royal house, has decided to ask Parlia
ment to cancel these debts.
Dr. Jose de Alperm, chief of the Pro
gressive Dissidents, who has been a thorn
in the side of the monarchy, is believed
to have made a deal with the govern
ment by which one of his followers will
enter the Cabinet at the earliest oppor
tunity. The Civil Governor of Lisbon has Issued
orders that all arms In the possession of
private persons be surrendered Immediate
ly. After May 5 any persons having arms
in their possession without the proper per
mission will be severely punished.

PROBLEM OF LONG LIFE
Anxiety to Live a Hundred Years
Appears to Be Increasing.
New York Telegraph.
Certain New Yorkers again are stirred
with the laudable ambition to live to be
a hundred years old, and more if possi
ble. These New Yorkers, who are under
the leadership of a physician, have
mapped out courses to follow which they
believe will result In long life. Strangely
enough each one has , different ideas.
While one will eat no meat another eats
nothing else.
One believes in gorging on fruit, while
another declares It Is "poison" to him.
One woman member of the Hundred
Year Club drinks many tumblers of
water during meals and between, while
her husband never drinks clear water.
And so it goes.
No one has ever been able to give rea
sons for remarkably long lives. Dr.
William George Meade, a celebrated'
physician In his day, died at his home in
Tunbridge Wells, England, in 1652, at the
age of 14S years and 2 months. His birth
and death are matters of record, so
there is no mistake about his age.
This extraordinary man was asked
scores of times how he prolonged his
life to such a length and he was never
able to tell, but answered vaguely that It
probably was because he never worried.
Dr. Meade smoked a pipe, which will
gratify tobacco users, and practiced as a
physician after he was 140 years old.
Meade's methods Were simple and axe
followed by many doctors at this day.
He believed in diet, open air exercise and
cleanliness.
In his day few Britons bothered them
selves about taking baths. A fat, lazy
squire would gorge himself with meat
and drink and go unbathed for many
months. He would swell up until he had
almost reached the bursting point, then
with red and bloated face and body and
short breath he would have himself taken
to Dr. Meade at Tunbridge Wells. Meade
made him take a bath night and morn
ing. He forced him to go to bed at sun
set and arise with the lark, spend all his
time walking over the hills or resting un
der an awning.
The patient was allowed two meals a
day, at 8 in the morning and 4 In the aft
ernoon. No liquor was allowed him, but
he was permitted to smoKe a certain
brand of tobacco which Dr. Meade him
self used. The result of this treatment
was to make new men and women out
of the patients of Meade.
