the Principal Speakers at
Burkhard Hall.
TALK FOR WHOLE TICKET

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.

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.

CHILDREN'S DRILL JUNE 9
DATE SET FOR EXHIBITION ON
MULTNOMAH FIELD.
Pupils of Grammar Schools Will
Perform Calisthenics Under Di
rection of Robert Krohn.
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. It
will also be remembered that the drill
of the children on the occasion of
President Roosevelt's visit to Port
land was one of the features of the
welcome tendered the Chief Executive
of the Nation. In fact, the President
remembered the Portland children
more than any other item on the pro
gramme of entertainment in his honor,
and is knwn to have frequently re
ferred to the school children to Port
landers and Oregonians who have
called upon him at Washington.
Tire coming drill will be participat
ed in by 4200 school children. They
will be divided into brigades and di
visions. Various teachers will have
charge of the brigades? while the
principals of the several schools par
ticipating -will, look afte each, division.
Professor Krohn will have command
of the entire body, and while on Mult
nomah Field, will direct each different
movement or formation. This drill
will be the greatest of its kind ever
undertaken, and should reflect a great
deal of credit, not only on the In
structor and the hard-working teach
ers. but on the eager little folks them
selves. This drill was to take place during
the Rose Festival week, but the Mult

USEFUL HINTS TO HOUSE
KEEPERS A COAT of Natural Jap--lae applied
over old or new linoleum or oil cloth
will double Its life, by preserving; the
original coat of varnish which would
otherwise soon be washed or worn off.
WEATHER BEATEN front doora are
revived and beautified when coated
with Jap-a-lac, and "newness follows
the brush." It is best to' use the color
nearest that of the old finish.
WINDOW and DOOR screens should
be coated with Jap-a-Iac each Spring:,
using- the Brilliant Black on the wire,
and the Mahogany, Oak, Cherry or Wal
nut on the frames. It gives them new
life and the wire cloth is protected
from rust.
PORCH FURNITURE should be pro
tected and beautified eacn Spring; with
Jap-a-lao. It is best to use the color
of the old finish; but if you wish to
change the color, use Red or Green
Jap-a-lac.
t
WICKER FURNITURE coated with
Mahogany, Ox-Blood Red, Malachite
Green or Gloss White Jap-a-lac, looks
better than new.
1
WATER PIPES, furnace fronts, radi
ators, hot water tanks and iron fences
are preserved and beautified with the
uso of Jap-a-lac. Use the Gold, Alum
inum, Dead Black or Brilliant Black.
PICTURE FRAMES, candelabra, gas
fixtures, lamps, etc., given a coat of
Gold, Aluminum or Dead Black Jap-a-lac.
are renewed almost beyond belief;
the Dead Black produces that beauti
ful wrought-iron effect.
OLD AUTOMOBILE S, carriages,
waeons. agricultural implements, etc..
Jap-a-lac-ed witfl either Brilliant Black,
Red, Green or Empire Blue, look 100
per cent better, and are given new life.
The cost is nominal, and the work can
be done by an inexperienced person.

and can be used in a hundred and one
ways, from "cellar to garret," and is
especially adapted lor finishing old or
new floors and woodwork. Ask youf
