8 THE MORNING OREGONTAN. FRIDAY. M4Y 29, 1908. BIO AUDIENCE !1I REPUBLICAN RALLY J. W. Cole and G. W. Stapleton the Principal Speakers at Burkhard Hall. TALK FOR WHOLE TICKET Cale Replies to Attack on Sheriff Movent Stapleton Makes tarnesl Plea for Tarty Harmony E. Xewbegin Presides. A large attendance greeted tle speakers at the Republican rally held at Burkhard Hall, on the Bant Bide, last night. James ' W. Cole, formerly Deputy United States District Attorney, and Goorge W. Staple ton were among the speakers. They both urged upon the electors present that they vote a straight Republican ticket at the polls Monday, telling them especially not to be Influenced by the Democratic cry of non-partisanship. Mr. Cole urged his hearers to vote for H. M. Cake for United States Senator, and Robert I Stevens for Sheriff of Multno mah County without fail. He said that Mr. Cake would be able to do more in the Senate during his term of office, if elected, than Governor Chamberlain could do In a life time. Mr. Cole said: "They tell you to vote for Governor Chamberlain for the United States Sen ale, that there is no partisanship in this campaign. Send him to the Senate and you will see that he Is partisan. Com pare the two men, man to man, and you will find that Cake Is Just as able a man as Chamberlain. We placed Cake on the-ballot, and we owe him a duty. That is to send him to the 3enate by Just as large a majority ever cast for a Republican nominee in Oregon. It is your business and mine to stir up our friends to the point of casting Uieir vote for this good man." Cole Speaks lor Stevens. Here Mr. Cole told of the good work done by George J. Cameron as Municipal Judge, and recommended his election. He said that Mr. Manning, as District At torney, had not prosecuted the bank offi cials aR rigidly as he might, and referred generally to other cases of omission. He recommended that Kooerc j. Aiorrow oe elected as Circuit Judge, also Judge Bronaugh. Mr. Cole then referred to the excellent work done by Robert L. stev- ens as Sheriff of the county. He said: " 'Bob' Stevens is the best Sheriff Multnomah County ever had. I know something about him, for I was thrown In contact with him officially for two years. There is not a more conscien tlous officer, who ever took the oath of office than the Sheriff whom you elect ed two years ago. There is no good reason why you should turn 'Bob Stevens down In this election." Here Mr. Cole read from a circular which has been sent broadcast through out the county by Tom Word, Mr. Stevens' Democratic opponent in the rsce for Sheriff. Mr. Cole said that . Word made a profit by feeding the county prisoners at 174 cents a meal and that he had a right to do It. But he said It was nothing to crow over. He (Cole) advocated the passage of the law by popular vote which will give the Sheriff the right to feed the county prisoners at 13'-i cents a meal. Mr. Cole said that it was only through the fight over this question put up by Sher iff Stevens that the matter has been brought to a focus now, and the ques tion placed upon the ballot. Denies Credit Is Due Word. "There Is no credit due to Tom "Word," ssld Mr. Cole, "because ho did his duty 4n closing up the gambling dens. The gambling hells were wide open, but a wave of public sentiment sweeping from cosst to coast demanded Just what Tom Word did. He was simply swept along by the tide. He responded to the call of public sentiment. "But with all his goodness Tom Word didn't close the saloons. He didn't carry the reform work any farther than the gambling dens. He charges In his cir cular that 'Mr. Stevens has not made One arrest for illegal liquor selling.' These things have been going on all the time without the city and sometimes within it.' "I know that that is not a fact. 'Bob' Stevens has arrested gamblers. He has assisted in the Sunday closing of saloons. 1 came into possession of a letter from the Municipal Association this afternoon, which speaks of the activity Mr. Stevens has displayed in making the saloons obey the law, and commending him for It. It Is signed by John Bain, secretary, and states that he was di rected to write the letter at a meeting of the association held May IS. " 'Boh' Stevens may make mistakes, but you can go to him and tell htm about them and make up your mind that they will not occur again." Stapleton's Plea for Harmony. Mr. Stapleton made an earnest plea for Party harmony. He gave a somewhat sar castic review of the political career of Governor Chamberlain, and his scheme to become United States Senator by mas querading as a Roosevelt Democrat. In order to carry out this scheme and reach the object of hia ambition he has become the whole Democratic party, said the speaker, for there Is no party Governor Chamberlain being the whole tiling. Mr. Stapleton declared that the Governor is working the non-partisan dodge in order to reach the object of his ambition. He said the Governor tried to rrevent Mr. D'Arcy from being a candidate for the Supreme Bench, but" Mr. D'Arcy declined to bo pulled off and became an Indepen dent candidate. Passing on from Chamberlain. Mr. Stap leton scouted the idea that Judge O'Day should be elected Judge in this county in order to have a non-partisan court over Robert Morrow, for the courts of the country had always been upright, pure and honest, and had never been influenced in their decisions through politics. Tak ing up the claim that Tom Word had made th best Sheriff this county ever had. Mr. Stapleton paid: "Whatever of good there was in the record of Tom Word can be found in the record of Sheriff Stevens. only Word made a great noise about every thing he did. When he made an arrest or performed an official act he always had with him a lot of reporters and spread the news far and wide. Mr. Stevens has done the same things, but there has been less said about it. He has made arrests and enforced the Sun day closing law against saloons as effectively as Word ever did. Tho Municipal Association strongly com mended Stevens, in a letter which I have, for his efficiency in keeping the saloons closed up on Sundays, but he1 has been very quiet about It. which is sometimes a good thing and sometimes j is not." Mr. stapieton then reviewed the dif ference in the Republican party of the last 10 years, and said that the two leaders of those days were out. one set aside and the other one in his grave, dishonored and disgraced, unjustly, and still many of the old differences re main to vex and cause disturbances. Kemarknble Situation in Multnomah "We have a most remarkable situa tion in this county. We are farther apart than ever, although the old lead ers are rone, one dead. We see the remarkable spectacle of The Oregonian. the tower and foundation of Republi can principles In this country for half a century, supporting O'Day. a Democrat, for Judge, and also a Democrat for District Attorney. We see the Demo cratic paper supporting a Republican for District Attorney. May the . Lord have mercy on us. we see Hon. C. E. S. Wood, a great Democrat, presiding over a meeting of anarchists in this city. Although the leaders of the past fac tions in the party are out. the evils of the past in the ranks of the party still are with us." "We find that Democrats registered in large numbers for the primaries at th? command of Governor Chamberlain, so they might assist in the nomination or a weaker man, as he supposed, than 1'ulton. but he may have made a mi?iaks In that, and I think he lias. These men did not' change from principle, as many thousands did change in 16. when the country was in danger, that they might support lje financial institutions of the country and stop the flood of financial iuln. They registered as Republicans that they might help elect Chamberlain, a Democrat, to the United States Senate, that they might assist him in reaching the object of his ambition. The order to so register emanated from the chief ex ecutive of this state, that he might be come United States Senator on a non partisan platform. "He says that he is a Roosevelt Demo crat. Do you suppose lie would support Roosevelt's policies in the Senate if the Democratic party were lined up against them? Hla ole history says that he would not do so, for he could not and' would not break away from his years of Democracy, and the cry that he is a Roosevelt Democrat is simply for the purpose of catching votes from Repub licans. Would he stand for the Repub lican party of the past if he reach the United States Senate? ' Chamberlain and Free Silver. Chamberlain was silent in 1896 during the silver craze that swept the country toward financial ruin, -although I believe in my heart he was a gold Democrat, but he was silent. He let that oppor tunity pass. If he would not then rise above the party, as thousands of patriot ic Democrats did. can he be trusted now to support Roosevelt's policies? I think not. His whole career Is against any such conclusion that he would line up for Roosevelt's, policies. He is using this cry that he is a Roosevelt Democrat to de ceive the Ifpublijans in this state. He Is a Democrat and will always act as a Democrat." Following came a short address by Jutlge L. R. Webster, who devoted his time mainly to a discussion of some of the amendments that are to be voted on at the election next Monday. The meeting was presided over by E. Newbegln. an Hist Side business man. A soro was rendered by E. H. Quimby between two of the addresses. REPUBLICANS AT THE EMPIRE Closing Meetings of Campaign Are Scheduled for Tonight.

Dni;.:.. i 1 Dcieiiuo ruiiuieu aim uiuuo Candidacy at Rally in Empire Theater. OTHER DEMOCRATS TALK -Manning, Word and Wilson Among Candidates Who Address Voters on Issues to Be Decided at Monday's Election. Every available inch of space was taken at the Empire theater last night by people anxious to hear Governor Chamberlain speak In his campaign for United States Senator. Seldom has the Empire been called upon to hold such a large crowd. There was much en thusiasm and Governor Chamberlain and the other Democratic candidates who spoke were cheered to the echo. .John Manning. Tom Word. A. King vvnson ana a host of other Democratl candidates made campaign speeches and were welcomed with rounds of ap plause oy tne large audience. The pro gramme was enlivened with a reading by Mrs. Sylvia McGuire and selections by the Oregon Male Quartet. Huge American flags were used to decorate tne stage and the theater. Governor Chamberlain's speech, which was me cmer attraction of the niarht dealt largely with his use of the par- aoning power.s winch has been the ob Ject of sharp attacks by his opponents in the present campaign, and he dwelt at some length on the school land scandals that have been brought up in connection with his campaign. He ex plained these matters to his hearers, who listened carefully to every statement-Speech of Mr. Manning. Mr. Manning, in his speech, spoke as mucn iqr nis rellow candidates on the Democratic ticket as for himself. He made frequent references to Governor Chamberlain s public nfe in this state, and said he had always been above re proach or suspicion. Mr. Manning also reierrea in a most complimentary man ner to Tom Word, who later made a speech on his own behalf. George H. Thomas, chairman of the Democratic County Central Committee, called the meeting to order, after Slg nor de Caprlo's band had played "Hall to the Chief," as Governor Chamberlain entered the theater. He introduced Mayor Lane, who presided at the rally. Mayor Lane made a few introductory remarks In which he complimented the people or the city and state upon having- announced themselves so positively for statement No. 1 at the recent elec tion. He said this was a step in ad vance in political matters. W. C. Farnham, Democratic candidate for State Senator, was first introduced He pledged his allegiance to Statement No. 1 because, he said, it means govern ment by the people, and the more power given to tne people the better it will be for the state. A. King Wilson, Democratic candidate for Joint Representative, stated his be lief in Statement No. 1, saying that his opponent is opposed to Statement No. 1, and asked for the support of his audi ence on that account. Candidate for Commissioner. After a reading by Mrs. Sylvia Mc Guire. Oglesby Young, Democratic can didate for Railroad Commissioner. Second District, announced his qualifications for that position. He said that what is heeded in that office is not a practical railroad man, or he would not be a can didate. He called attention to the rela tions of his opponent, Clyde B. Aitchl Bon, with the defunct Title Guarantee & Trust Company and declared he Is allied to no special Interest, as he said all other candidates for the position are. with the exception of Mr. Newell, the Prohibition candidate. He pledged himself to work wholly in the interests of the people if elected. John Manning was given a glowing In troduction by Mayor Lane and was greet ed with loud applause. Mr. Manning took up the cudgel for Governor Chamberlain, coming to his defense against the at tacks that have been made upon him because of his exercise of the pardoning power. Mr. Manning spoke warm words of commendation for ex-Sheriff Word. He said Mr. Word shut up gambling In Portland and that he deserves re-election on that account. "The man who is opposed to Statement No. 1 does not want the people to gov ern," said Mr. Manning. "The people are nearly always right. When they 6ay they think they can choose a Senator by thetr own votes they are saying what they should have said long ago." Talks of Bank Cases. Mr. Manning then took up the history of the prosecution of the Title Guarantee & Trust Company, conducted by his office, resulting in the indictment of the four leading officials of the company and the conviction and sentencing of Presi dent Ross. "The verdict of guilty was brought in In one hour and 15 minutes," said Mr. Manning. "The jurors said afterward they could have found him guilty in 15 minutes, but took the additional hour to show some respect for a man who han dled so much money. If I am re-elected, as I am sure I will be, every other offi cial of that bank will be -convicted In Just the same way.". Mayor Lane then introduced Ex-Sheriff Word, who told of his work while Sheriff in suppressing the criminal element in this city. He referred to the large num ber of resorts in operation at the time he was elected to office and of efforts put forth by him In accordance with hla campaign pledge. He asserted that if elected he would continue to devote his energies to the moral welfare of the city. Following the address of Mr. Word, Judge O'Day made a brief speech. The speaker referred to his record as Jude, and asked for support In his campaign for re-election. Governor Chamberlain was then Intro duced by Mayor Lane and was received with prolonged applause. Eulogizes the Statement. Governor Chanjberlain's opening re marks were devoted to a eulogy of state ment No. 1. He traded the growth of that political measure and declared that he was its first supporter. He also as serted that in his previous campaign, Mr. Cake did not commit himself with re gard to statement No. 1. Governor Cham berlain also said that since the primaries Mr. Cake has not expressed himself with regard to the election of men pledged to statement No. 1. In this he believed Mr. Cake was not consistent. The speaker said that his opponent had eliminated the platform upon which he was nominated and usurped the one upon which Senator Fulton was defeated. Governor Chamber lain dismissed that feature of his ad dress by saying that he had urged the people throughout the state to vote for the men who have subscribed to state ment No. 1 in order that the legislature should represent the people, as it was intended it should. The Governor then referred to the as sertion that has been made that a Demo crat would be unable to do anything for the state because he would be a member of the minority party. In reply to this the speaker referred to the work accom plished by Senators Fulton and Gearin. It was. he said, largely due to the lat ter Senator's efforts that the heavy ap propriation for the improvement of the Columbia River was secured. Governor Chamberlain pointed out that in spite of the state's present Republican delegation, the Navy department could not be in duced to permit the fleet to visit this harbor. Mention was also made by the speaker of the. recent order depriving Portland of the right to furnish supplies to the Department of the Columbia. He said that it was only after protests had been entered by the' commercial bodies that the unjust order was repealed. A comparison was made by the speaker of the appropriations secured by the Oregon delegation with those secured by the di vided delegation of Montana, for the pur pose of showing that Montana had re ceived -twice as much money for public buildings as Oregon during the same period. Does Xot Want Patronage. Governor Chamberlain then referred to the troubles which have arisen out of the failure of the Oregon Senators to agree on appointments. He declared that, if elected, he would not bother about the patronage: that, it could be left to the other members of the delegation, and that the needs of the state could be turned over to him. The advisability of acquiring the locks at Oregon City, either by the Government or the state, was then pointed out. Their value in the problem of reducing freight rates was mentioned, and the speaker told of the investigation made by htm to de termine the right of the state to the prop erty. .The necessity of improving the channel of the Columbia and Snake Rivers was then taken up. This, the Governor declared, would be one of the first measures pressed by him in the Senate, If he should be elected. The value of waterways In interstate com merce was dwelt upon at length, the speaker giving the results of his obser vations while on ,the trip down the Mis sissippi with President Roosevelt and the Rivers and Harbors Congress at Memphis last year.

Tuesday afternoon, June 9, Is the date set for the drill of the Portland public school pupils, who will go thrr t their formations, marches and callsthentc exercises on Multnomah Field in a benefit exhibition for the Portland Grammar School Athletic Lea guc. . Under the direction of Professor Robert Krohn, who will have charge of the coming exhibition, the Portland school children last year made a de cided hit when they participated in a magnificent Rose Festival parade.
