WISTFUL EYES ON
SENATORIAL CHAIFl
Multnomah Has Many Aspir
ants for Seats of Author-,
ity in Legislature.
SIX NOW LAYING WIRES
Beach, Selling, Nottingham and Bui
Icy Mentioned for President,
AVhile Orton and McArthur
Would Be Speaker.
Present indications are that Multnomah
County -will have at least six aspirants
either for President of the Senate or
Speaker of the House at the next session
of the Oregon Legislature. The en
trance of so many applicants into the
contest promises to develop endless com
plications, dissipate the strength of the
rival candidate and improve the chances
of aspirants for these offices from other
parts of the state. But it is yet early
and there is ample time for realignments
and all sorts of combinations before Kail
when the Legislators will begin definitely
to consider the organization of the two
houses.
State Senator S. C. Beach, holdover
anti-Statement Senator from this county,
is a tentative candidate for President of
the Senate. Wiseacres declare that 9tate
Senator-elect Ben Selling will be the
choice of the Multnomah delegation for
presiding officer of the Upper House. C
W. Nottingham, also Senator-elect from
this county, is said to view with envious
eyes the chair held by Senator K. W.
Haines at the last session and is en
deavoring to line up the Statement No.
1 men in the interest of his candidacy.
Still another Statement man, who would
wield the gavel In the Senate during next
Winter's interesting session is A. A.
Bailey, holdover Senator from this
county, who was elected on the Statement
ticket two years ago.
A. A. Bailey One oT 29.
"From what I can learn, there will
be 29 candidates for President of the Sen
ate by the time the legislature con
venes." said Senator Bailey, yesterday,
in a facetious vein. "When the other 20
have gone out for the honor I suppose
probably I might also enter the contest.
I would certainly be able to poll as much
strength as any of the others. But I
have not reached any decision in the mat
ter yet. There Is plenty of time, since
things will not be getting interesting be
fore September or October."
The report that Senator Bailey will go
into the contest is taken to explain his
attitude in declining recently to commit
himself on the Senatorial situation. When
asked if he, as a Statement No. 1 man,
expected to vote for and support Gov
ernor Chamberlain for Senator, he re
plied, last week: "You may classify n?
as noncommittal." As a Statement No.
1 man It is presumed Senator Bailey,
by refusing to line up positively at this
time for Chamberlain, expectss to make
the most of the situation and force to
himself support that he might otherwise
not be able to command.
Campaigns for Speakership.
For speaker of the House, Multnomah
County has two candidates who have al
ready -launched vigorous campaigns. A.
W. Orton, Statement No. 1, Representative-elect,
will contest for the honor with
C N. McArthur, anti-Statement "Joint
Representative from Clackamas and
Multnodmah Counties. Ever since the
election this month. Mr. Orton has been
endeavoring to have a meeting of the
Multnomah delegation called. His pur
pose has been construed to mean the in
dorsement of his candidacy by the dele
gation, but thus far he has been unable
to arrange for the meeting. Suspecting
that Orton's candidacy for Speaker is
about the only business that could be
brought before a. meeting of the delega
tion at this time, various others of the
delegation have fought shy of the pro
posal. They insist that there will be no
occasion for any meeting before Fall and
disclaim any Intention of calling the
members together before.
Mr. McArthur is known to be doing
some effective preliminary work of organ
ization. Being elected as an anti-Statement
man the question of the support,
If any, he can expect from the Multno
mah delegation, aside from Robert S.
Farrell, the. only anti-Statement Representative-elect,
is a doubtful one. How
ever. Mr. McArthur is directing his ef
forts to gain substantial support from the
anti-Statement men from throughout the
state.
CLUBHOUSE FDR CARMEN
COMPANY COMPLETES RESORT
FOR ITS EMPLOYES.
Place Where Men May Occupy Time
While Off Duty or Waiting
to Take Runs.
Streetcar men in the employ of the
Portland Railway. Light & Power Com
pany will hereafter have comfortable
quarters where they may spend their
time while off duty and while awaiting
their turns to go out on runs. The first
clubhouse of a number to be constructed
by the company for its carmen has Just
been completed at Piedmont and the fit
tings are now being installed. This is a
pew departure for Portland trolley com
panies that will be much appreciated by
the men, for while there have been loung
ing rooms at the old barns, there has
been no provision for the men to
amuse themselves and to provide healthy
recreation.
The new clubhouse at Piedmont is a
'model of its kind. It will be opened to
the men within a short time and will
contain the best features of -similar in
stitutions that have been provided in
other cities by traction companies for
.their employes.
The new clubhouse Is roomy and is ar
ranged with the sole view to the con
venience and comfort of the men. The
main recreation room, located on the
ground floor, is 27x82 feet in size
and contains bowling alleys and pool
tables. The office of the division
superintendent is located on the main
floor and the' reporting room for the
men to use when they come on duty
and are assigned to their runs adjoins
this office. From a broad hallway, stairs
lead to the second floor, where the reading-room
Is located. This room is 27 by
40 feet In -.size and is placed over the
office and is away from the noise of
bowling and other amusements on the
lower floor.
On the second floor space has been left
for an assembly hall which will be built
later, where the men may hold meetings,
hear lectures and hold whatever social!
gatherings they may desire. A complete I
lavatory is located in the basement or
the building, which is finished throughout
with paneled fir, so cut as to show the
grain to tne best advantage, and Is given
a weathered oak stain. The ceilings and
walls are tinted attractively, and th
buildlng Is lighted throughout with elec
tricity, giving the whole interior a hand
some and pleasing effect.
"Pool tables are being set up this week
and the bowling alley Is already Installed.
Tables and chairs for the reading-room
will be put in during the coming week
and a list of the best magazines will be
placed on the tables each month for the
men to read, in addition to newspapers
and street railway publications.
About 250 men make their headquarters
at the Piedmont barn and they will use
this clubhouse, which will be open to
them at all times when off duty.
The next clubhouse of this kind that
will be built by the company will be at
the golf links, where a new barn and
carshops are to be constructed this sea
son. The clubrooms at the golf links
will probably be on the second floor of
the building, and will he ready for the
use of the men stationed at that barn
before the Summer is ended.
TO KEEP ST. JOHN WET
INJUNCTION STJIT BROUGHT BY
SALOONKEEPER. .
County Court Restrained From De
claring Precinct 91 Dry Tech
nical Ground Alleged.
County Commissioners Webster,
Lightner and Barnes are restrained by
an order issued yesterday by Judge
Gantenbeln from declaring Precinct 91,
in St. John, dry. The injunction pro
vides, however, that the commissioners
may, upon five days' notice, move to
have It set aside.
The order is the result of a suit filed
yesterday mornng in the Circuit Court
by Ed. Magoon, a St. John saloon
keeperagainst the Commissioners. He
asserts that they have no legal right
to declare Precinct 91, in St. John, dry,
notwithstanding that the territory in
cluded In Precincts 89. 90 and 91 was
voted dry on June 1. On November 9.
1904, Precinct 89. University Park, de
clared at the polls for prohibition. It
was at that time known as Precinct 68.
Since then no vote on the saloon ques
tion had been taken until that of the
last election.
At that time a majority of 28 voters
favored prohibition In Precinct 89. and a
majority of 53 in Precinct 90. But in
Precinct 91 there was a majority of 57
in favor of saloons. It is contended In
the complaint that because University
Park voted individually on the saloon
question in 1904. and no vote was taken
at the following election, it cannot now
be used as a whip to bring Precinct 91
into the- prohibition ranks. It is fur
ther'contended that in Precincts 90 and
91 there is a majority of six votes
against prohibition, hence this terri
tory cannot be declared dry. Ma
goon says such an order would de
prive him of his personal liberty and
would be to his injury.
Paul Doschall put up a $1000 bond
for Magoon to insure the Commission
ers against any damage which might
result from the Issuance of the tempo
rary injunction before the case comes
to trial.
M
Held by the Enemy
at the Lyric
ft
THE Blunkall-Atwood stock company
has so thoroughly established Itself
at the Lyric that it seems as if the or
ganization had been here for- months in
stead of days. The second week of the
engagement which opened Monday night
is devoted to William Gillette's splendid
Civil War drama, "Held by the Enemy."
There are few American plays that pos
sess the interest of this one. It thrills
with patriotism, the lines are brilliantly
written and the sentiments inspiring.
The elements of romance, melodrama,
comedy and pathos are all present, while
the situations are calculated to sustain
the interest from the moment the first
curtain rises until its final fall.
Portland has seen this great old play
before, but never under more favorable
auspices . than at the Lyric this week,
where the Blunkall-Atwood company is
repeating the splendid impression it made
last week. All the parts are in good
hands, while the production reflects the
greatest degree of credit on the enter
prise and liberality of the management.
Erwin Blunkal! is afforded an especial
ly fine opportunity to display his marked
ability in romantltc- roles by his fine
characterization of Colonel Prescott, the
Northern hero. He is eminently fitted
for the post and the fact that Mr. Blun
kall is a former officer in the regular
Army adds to the interest ' when he Is
seen in a military role. He certainly
plays it to the manner- born. Fred Cant
way, who plays the Confederate spy,
gives a very good account of himself,
while Charles Schau, as Bean, the corre
spondent of Leslie's Weekly, covers him
self with glory.
Among the ladies of the cast interest
naturally centers in Lyllian Atwood. who
appears as Rachael McCreery, the lovable
Southern girl with whom Colonel Pres
cott falls In love. Miss Atwood displays
dramatic ability of the highest order, and
after seeing her work it is easy to un
derstand how she has attained her pres
ent position. Grade Plaisted has a de
lightful ingenue part, while Joan Storm
appears to advantage as the maiden aunt.
The production Is one of the most elab
orate ever seen on the Lyric stage, the
explosion scene being very effectively
worked out. The bill continues all week,
with usual matinees.

Austin Sues Xawjer Tifft.
Dr. P. L. Austin, recently acquitted In
the Circuit Court of practicing dentistry
without a license, is suing his attorney,
Arthur P. Tifft, for $500. The complaint
was filed in the Circuit Court yesterday.
Ausfin says that counsel was- employed
in March last. He paid Tifft $160 as fees,
and was told that $500 would be needed
as bail money. He asserts that he paid
this amount, but that TITt converted It to
his own use. Austin now wants his money
back.
Thinks It Saved His Life.
Lester M. Nelson, of Naples, Maine,
says in a recent letter: "I have used Dr.
King's New Discovery many years, for
coughs and colds, and I think it saved
my life. I have found it a reliable rem
edy for throat and lung complaints, and
would no more be without a bottle than
I- would be without food." For nearly
forty years New Discovery has stood at
the head of throat and lung remedies.
As a preventive of pneumonia, and
healer of weak lungs ft has no equal.

COUfJCILTO STOP IT
Improvement of Streets by
Private Contract Opposed."
CAUSE OF MUCH CONFUSION
Action Likely to Be Taken That Will
Put End to Practices Question
of Ownership of Dirt
From Excavations.
Private . street .contracting, both for
grading and the placing of sidewalks,
is to be discouraged by the City Council
In the future. Yesterday morning the
Council ordered re-referred 15 permits for
this kind of work, which had been cer
tified by City Engineer Taylor, and sev
eral of the members spoke agaist al
lowing any more private contracts to go
fhrough. Mr. Taylor also announced
himself as "opposed to the system.
The question as to who owns the dirt
that is taken from the streets when
grades are being made is another feature
of the case, which the Council has asked
City Attorney iiavanaugh. to define.
Councilman Cellars maintains that the
soil should go to the owner of the prop
erty in front, while Councilman Baker
holds that it should be used to fill in
where needed along the street, or that
it should be used for this purpose on
other streets, to improve the general ap
pearance of the city's' thoroughfares.
A large amount, of private street work
has been done in Portland, and much
of it is said to have been performed in
an unsatisfactory manner. Instances of
gross Injustice to certain property own
ers have come to light, and the Council
intends to check up closely on all peti
tions. Councilman Wills spoke against the
private contract system in general, but
declared that in some instances it is wise
to allow It, and this is . also the view
of City Engineer Taylor. Another mat
ter that is up for action is as to whether
private contractors have the right to
sell eiir'h removed by them on contracts
for their own gain. Councilman Kella
her has raised this point, which Is to be
the subject of an opinion by the City
Attorney. The entire question, embrac
ing these different piiases, forms a prob
lem of much importance, because of the
large amount of contracting being done
this Summer.
PLEAD IN UMATILLA CASES
ELEVEN DEFENDANTS WILL TO
DAY ANSWER CHARGES.
J. H. Raley and Others Accused of
Defrauding Government of 30,
000 Acres of Land.
J. H. Raley and ten other residents of
Umatilla County, recently indicted by the
Federal grand jury for alleged conspir
acy to defraud the Government out of
about 30,000 acres of unallotted Indian
lands in Umatilla County, will probably
appear in the United States Court today
to answer to the charges preferred
against them. Of the 11 defendants. Mr.
Raley has been indicted on six of the
seven counts reported by the jury, while
William Slusher and William Rahe have
each been indicted for two separate of
fense. The investigation . of the Umatilla
frauds probably will be concluded by the
grand jury this week. Most of the 35
witnesses that remained to be examined
this week have given their testimony be
fore the Jurors and further indictments
may be expected the latter part of the
week.
A number of other matters are to be
investigated by the grand jury before
it Is finally dismissed, and the chances
are that this inquieitoriaf body jiill con
tinue in session for a number of daya
yet. District Attorney McCourt keeps
his own counsel and refuses to give out
an Inkling of what awaits the consider
ation of the jury.
ADMITS FENCING BIG TRACT
Judge Wolvcrton Gives the Minimum
Sentence to Dick Rcckman.
Pleading guilty, to an Indictment charg
ing him with unlawfully enclosing 740
acres of Government land, Dick Reck
man, residing near Grass Valley, Sher
man County, was yeBterday fined $50 and
sentenced to serve six hours In the Sher
man County jail by United States Judge
Wolverton. There were extenuating cir
cumstances In the case, which accounts
for the minimum sentence that was" im
posed. Imprisonment In the Sherman County
jail was directed by Judge Wolverton
that Reckman might be spared the ex
pense of a trip to Portland, where ne
would have been required to serve the
short tlmo in the Multnomah County
jail.
Charged With Rifling Mails.
The Federal grand jury yesterday sus
pended its investigation of the Umatilla
land frauds long enough to Inquire into
the charge of rifling tho United States
mails, which had been preferred against
Mrs. Nellie Bauer-Ragan and her hus
band. Mrs. Ragan was formerly assist
ant postmaster at Royston. a small sta
tion near Klamath Falls, and was ar
rested on charge of abstracting certain
mall that came into her possession. Mrs.
Ragan is a young woman who was mar
ried only recently, and for years has
enjoyed the title of the "cowgirl belle of
Klamath County."

Pupils' Piano Recital
at the Heilig. -
BY J. M. QUENTIN-.
WITH the approach of these glad June
daya comes the season when the
blossoming young pianist annually plays
In public before father and mother and
the remainder of the family, and retires
off the stage almost smothered in roses.
Last night I dropped in the Heilig The
ater and found it jammed to the doors
in honor of a piano recital given by the
pupils of Miss Marie S. Soule. Eleven
of Miss Soule's pupils played on the
grand piano so well that they honored
themselves and their teacher. Some of
the little pianists were so small in stat
ure that their feet didn't reach the pedals
and people whispered to each other,
"Isn't that cute enough for anything?"
One very little girl dressed in white made
a pretty, demure picture mixed with
dignity.
1 don't wish to single out any juvenile
artist for special mention, because I want
to be fair to all. Suffice it to say that
generally speaking the playing was really
intelligent and above the average, much
attention being paid -to expression and
fingering. The selections, of course, were
mainly well known.
Every performer was deluged with
floral bouquets, mostly of roses, and the
ushers worked overtime In this pleasant
duty. The young pianists were: Beatrice
Evelyn Wilson, Edna Wcnnenberg,
diaries Dundore. Vera Kaufmann. Helen
pebble, Louise Ingmann, Lorna Ganong.
Thora Larsen, Pearl Barde, Daisy Chal
mers and Ethel Barksdale.

GUILT IS HOT DENIED
DEFENSE OP BARNES WILL
LIKELY BE INSANITY.
Prisoner Makes Powerful struggle
to Conceal Emotions When tho
Bloody Exhibits Are Shown.
WAT-LA WALLA. Wash., June 10.
(Special.) Twenty witnesses, all for the
prosecution, took the stand in the
Barnes murder trial today and gave tes
timony tending to establish the guilt of
the young man, which counsel for the
defense has thus far made no attempt
to deny. Barnes sat in the crowded
courtroom and though he did not entirely
give way was forced to keep up a con
stant struggle to conceal his emotions.
With his face deathly white, his hands
clenched and his whole body rigid as a
bar of steel, the young man remained
immovable while the story of the awful
crime was being told, piece by piece, by
the various witnesses. The exhibition of
"the blood-stained clothing and of "the
mattock handle with which the bloody
deed is supposed to have been committed,
affected tl prisoner severely, though he
managed to retain his composure. '
Counsel for the defense are apparently
making no effort to clear their client, as
their cross-examinations are used merely
Mo strengthen the 'story of the prosecu
tion with the probable intention of show
ing insanity on tho part of Barnes In
committing so crude a deed.
Among the main witnesses today were
Jeff Doggett, divorced husband of the
murdered woman, who was working for
her at the time she was murdered; Jack
Barnes, John Barnes, brothers of the
defendant: Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Abbey,
parents -of Mrs. Barnes; George Bailey,
son-in-law of Mrs. Aldrich, and Shelley
Aldrlch. nephew of the murdered woman.
Thirty-four witnesses have been sum
moned to appear tomorrow.
CLUB TO OPEN NEW HOME
Slembcrs Only Will Be Admitted to

t
The hsndeome new quarters of the
Commercial Club Will be officially opened
tomorrow night with a reception to mem
bers only. Even the wives of members
will be excluded,, It being thought that the
club quarters will be fully taken up by
the members. The affair promises to be a
most pleasant one. There will be music
and light refreshments, and the club's
home will be handsomely decorated for
the event. Elaborate rose decorations of
the rooms will be a feature.
Former club presidents have been In
vited to deliver addresses, and at least
seven officials will make talks along the
lines of a greater future for the organiza
tion. W.. B. Glafke is chairman of the re
ception committee and has the affair in
charge.
ERECT GRAIN WAREHOUSES
Balfour-Guthrie Company Has a

LEWISTON, Idaho. June 10. (Special.)
R. W. Hastings and William Hilton, rep
resenting the Balfour-Guthrie Company,
have arrived here from a trip of inspec
tion over the grain country to the south
east of Lewiston along the line of the
new joint O. R. & X. and X. P. line to
Grangeville. The object of their trip
was to arrange for the establishment of
warehouses along the line of the new rail
road. Mr. Hastings stated that ware

warehouses will le under way by July

care of the new crop.
When asked why the Balfour-Guthrie
Compariy had not entered this field as
grain buyers long ago, he replied: "Can
didly, I believe the company did not
realize the extent of this grain belt. In
fact, I know that members of the com
pany, until they recently made a trip of
inspection through this region, did not
realize fully its importance." The offices
for the handling of the business In this
field wljl probably be located at Lewiston.

unlike the other treatment with which
1 was familiar, and I was not mistaken.
Treated by Mr. Neville. -
"I was treated by Mr. Neville, the
associate of James Austin Larson, and
I do not. hesitate to say that Teleooni
gave me the relief I sought. The ac
tion of tiie heart, which had been bad
ly Impaired, immediately grew better
and the first night after trying Teleconi
I slept like a child and awoke in the
morning refreshed and in good spirits.
Afttr the second treatment I came home
and did a full day of hard housework,
and again sUpt well. For six years I was
in Hot Springs, Ark., seeking relief in
the healing waters. Nervous exhaustion
lias made of me a nervous wreck. My
heart action was weak, and I had run
down In weight to a litale more than 70
pounds. After leaving Hot Springs and
taking the vital treatment under the di
rection of Dr. Carson. I gained rapidly,
and soon added 20 pounds to my weight.

All Run Down Again.
"After leaving Missorui and stopping
vital treatments and I took them only
two weeks I again found myself running
down, and when I happened to see the
announcement of the presence of James
Austin l-rtirson in Taeoma. I was prac
tically a physical wreck. As I have said.
I have taken two Teleconl treatments and
feel like a new woman. I contsidor the
treatment marvellous. It is so quick in
results that the patient Is startled with
the change In feeling. Is there any won
der that I should gratefully subscribe to
the efficiency of this marvellous resto
ration of life to the deadened human
body?
Is Not a Skeptic.
"I am not a skeptic 1 have in my
practice accomplished cures where oth
ers have given up the patients to die. I
know what is possible and as a pro
fessional practitioner. I do not hesi
tate to say that Teleconl Is all that
Mr. Larson, its originator, claims for
It. Iut more. I think he is modest In
his claims. This I say from my own
knowledge of the human body, gained
in years of practice In the medical pro
fession. I have come to realize that med
icine Is not a science, but an experiment.
A bold assertion to come from a prac
titioner. -Yes. But It Is true. Surgery is
a science, but medicine Is a guess. I
know what to do In certain cases, but I
am honest enough to admit that I have
often found the expected remedy to fail
of results, and have then tried other
drugs. That Is not science. It is guess
work.
Teleconi No Guess.
"And that Is why I so heartily in
dorse Teleconl because it is a science
the science of vibration, of which I
profess to have considerable knowledge.
One of the medical colleges from which I
graduated was an electric school. I think
more of it than of the other. T know
just what Teleconl will help having In
vestigated and I can cheerfully recom
mend the treatment to any person suf
fering with rheumatism, stomach trouble,
constipation. Indigestion and above all
nervousness, to which women are so often
subject. I say this for the benefit and
information of my sex. Since taking the
Teleconi treatment I have studied the
principle of It.
Results of Inquiry.
"Permit me to explain. Teleconl is
the science of vibration. An example:"
Lt there be mental derangement and
harmonious vibration of the nerves of
the body is disturbed. A great calam
ity will cause the vibrations of the human
system to become harmful In sympathy.
The Information transmits to the body
the vibrations of 111, and the human be
ing suffers mentally and physically
for there can be no bodily suffering with
out its foundation In the mental. It Is
the vibrations that do the damage or the
good. Presume Instead of hearing of
disaster and calamity you receive Infor
mation that you have suddenly come into
a great fortune. You are overjoyed. The
thrills of delight arei transmitted to the
nrrves, and you are exhilarated. You
cannot fail to he benefited physically,
because you are mentally elated and th
transmission of the vibrations are har
monious and nerve-resting."
"Someone on the Wire."
"Compare the theory of vibration
the science, if you like TVleconi with
tile telegraph and telephone, and you
will understand more readily. Take the
telephone. You call a number and can
get no response. T'len there Is someone
on the wire. When the functional parts
of the body refuse or fail to work, then
you may depend upon It, there is also
something on the wire that should be
heeded. Establish harmonious vibration
in the human system and you have ease
not disease; concord, not discord: rest,
not nervous lack of interest in life.
Belief in Teleconi.
"In gratitude to James Austin Tar
son and Teleconl the science of vibra
tion. I want to say. In conclusion, that
I, as a professional woman a doctor
believe that Teleconl will cure many and
relieve the few who have so long neg
lected their physical condition as to be
almost beyond hope. I say this voluntar
ily and with thankfulness If for nothing
more than for a chance to assist in re
storing the functions of nature by re
freshing sleep, made possible by Tele
coni." ROOMS 212-213-214-215-216
