THE MORNING OBEGONIA WEDNESDAY, JULY 15, 1908. 11 IE OF GREAT COMMOTION Mrs. Elizabeth Brown Calls Police to Help Her Regain Lost Pet. SEEKS WARRANT IN VAIN Pudge Van Zante Advances Price ol Sprees From $2 to $3.50 to Dis may of Regular Contribu tors to City Funds. Ownership of one dull yellow little canary bird disturbed the equilibrium of the neighborhood of First and Co lumbia streets, occasioned a hurry call to the police and later necessitated the professional attention of Municipal Judge Van Zante, early yesterday af ternoon. In an attempt to recover a bird that escaped from her possession two weeks ago, Mrs. Elizabeth Brown, residing In the Beaver House, at First and Columbia, Invaded the apartments of Mrs. Pearson, residing directly across the street, and tried to get forcible possession of a songbird which was warbling 'tranquilly In the Pear eon birdcage. Xow It appears that this bird, while ordinary of appearance, is by no means an ordinary bird. Hence all the trou ble. For when Mrs. Pearson declared It was her bird, Mrs. Brown said she could prove to the contrary, and rush ing up to the cage, she said in affec tionate tones: "Fin, come kiss mam ma!" The bird accepted the invitation at once, and there was an affectionate re union, the bird poking its tiny beak through the bars of the cage and oscu lating with the air of long experience. But Mrs. Pearson was not affected. She persisted that it was her bird and demanded that Mrs. Brown leave the house, on penalty of being thrown out. "Very well; I will go." said Mrs. Brown. "But I shall come back with an officer. You shall not rob me of my little Flfl." Saving which ehe left and telephoned a ruah order to Police Captain Moore, who explained that he couldn't act without a warrant, and advised her to see the Judge. Judge Van Zante was Just leaving the courtroom when Mrs. Brown ar rived, and for the next hour explained herself as regards "little Flfl." "I know It was my little darling," she confided In the Judge. "I must have him back. That woman is trying to keep him, and I want her arrested. "Seven years ago the little thing was given me by my husband at Butte, Mont. I taught him to kiss me, the bird, I mean, and a lot of other things. All I had to do was to say to him to come, and he would fly to me, even from outdoors. Why, he would fight with me and sit on my shoulder and eat out of my mouth, and was Just the cutest little thing. "Two weeks ago I let him out in the sun and he didn't come back. I know he mistook that other woman for me ud went to her. and she kept him. I've hunted this whole town over for my little Flfl. Every bird I saw I would examine. Today I saw a bird over at this woman's. It looked like Flfl. 1 got closer and sure enough it was Flfl. I knew It was even if it was like hundreds of other canaries. Tou couldn't fool me about my Flfl. "So I went right in and asked for him. The woman said it was her bird. The idea! Her own Flfl! I told her he was mine and I could prove It. I went up to the cage and told Fifl to kiss me. and Fifl did it. That settled it. Would Fifl have ever kissed me, a stranger, if it hadn't really been Fifl?" Judge Van Zante thought at length on this question, but was unable to arrive at a definite conclusion. He ex plained, however, that It would hardly be advisable to issue a warrant, as there was nothing to show how the bird got into the Pearson cage. It may have gone there of its own volition, and anyone is entitled to keep a Mm that flies in at the window, the un happy owner of a lost canary was in formed. "But I can prove he's mine and that he's being kept away from me," per sisted Mrs. Brown, who evidently seemed to believe Justice is a pervad ing essence, rather than a lumbering, top-heavy contraption. "I can make him kiss me and fight with me and do a lot of little tricks. I'll do it in court, if you want proof." But, deep as his sympathy must have been for the grieving Mrs. Brown, the Judge could not consent to arrest Mrs. Pearson on so slender a charge. "It Is a matter for civil action," he aid. "Go sue her for the value of the bird." "That won't do. There's no money could take the place of Fifl." she said, and tears welled suddenly Into her eyes at the hopelessness of her case. "I know what I'll do: I'll go see a lawyer," she said innocently. And possibly, If she was observant, she wondered why the magistrate flinched. Attendant upon the marked midsum mer activity the price of Jags has ad vanced a few points. Hereafter police assistance In docking a well-defined spree will cost 2.60. Heretofore the price has been $2, even. The advance has been made by Judge Van Zante, who has been applying the rate for two days now. He put the new schedule into effect on Monday, when a number of those who had en Joyed that commodity for years at the old price were somewhut inclined to object. To those accustomed to weekly participation in the luxury, the advance will have an almost ruinous effect. "Why, that Increase is out of all pro portion," said one bibulous and ubiqui tous disciple of Bacchus. "It's the price of 10 beers, added to the cost of a Jag. When they get raising the price of necessities this way, us poor fellows will have to go without shoes and food and a few of the little luxuries we've been used to having now and then. It'll take every cent we've got getting Into trouble and out again." But taxpayers may smile, for while the Increase sounds small, yet it is quite an Item. On an average, there are five drunkards fined a day. In a year, this totals 1525, leaving out Sun days and holidays. At $2 a Jag, the net receipts are 93050, while at J2.E0 per. the Income to the city is $3812.50, an Increase of $762.50, or Just about enough to pay the clerk's wages. Judge Van Zante gives no explana tion of the Increase, but evidently he feels that 2 Is not enough, consider ing the emotions that acoompany the ordinary Jag, before and after taking. Whether or not the cost of running autos without licenses and the hun dred at oUbor natty offenses. r to b CANARY placed on the new tariff sheet remains to be seen. DEMOCRATS FOR PUBLICITY (Continued from First Page.) Wyoming; Greene, Rhode Island; Ryan, "Wisconsin; Daniels, North Carolina; Wade, Iowa; Tomllnson, Alabama; Cole, California ; Brady, Oklahoma. Daniels was made secretary. Other Candidates Withdraw. The presence on the subcommittee of Mr. Ryan an assurance that he is no longer considered a candidate. Inquiries among members of the subcommittee failed to elicit leanings toward any can didate, but the fact that the appointment has been left In their hands is not be lieved to diminish the chances of Mr. Atwood. D. J. Caxnpau, of Michigan, is no longer being considered; Tom L. Johnson won't have it; Urey Woodson would pre fer not to be considered and Ollie James believes his greatest usefulness is on the stump. This situation, for the present, at least, leaves the subcommittee with but one candidate to consider, namely, Mr. Atwood. The only whisper heard against Mr. Atwood today was the fact that his eminence In the legal profession may have brought him into closer contact with corporations than would be consistent in a campaign against "corporte greed and predatory wealth." There Is ample time before the Chicago meeting for the mat-' ter to be investigated by the subcom mittee. If It should consider action neces sary- Notify Bryan at Lincoln. Lincoln is extremely happy tonight be cause the formal notification of her fore most citizen, who has been chosen as the Democratic standard-bearer, will take place in his home town. Some members believe that there would be great politi cal advantage in having the notification take place in New York, while Urey Woodson was among those who favored Chicago. Chicago, he said, was a central point and the fact that there were rail road fares to be paid was a factor. But there was no opposition to Mr. Bryan's wish to have the scene laid in his home city. The date was set for August 12. As this Is a good two weeks after the date appointed for a similar function at Cincinnati for Mr. Taft, Mr.' Bryan wi.l have ample opportunity to prepare an answer to any statements the Republican nominee may make. Kern's Ceremony at Home. The official notification of the Vice- Presidential nominee, Mr. Kerrr, will take place at Indianapolis at a date to be de termined later, possibly the time the sub committee meets at Chicago. Mr. Kern left here this afternoon over the Rock Island Road. He will arrive at Chicago at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and at Indianapolis, where a demonstration has been planned In his honor, at 6 o'clock in the evening. Rain threatened, when a little after 8 o'clock this morning the Rock Island special bearing the committee, a number of the men who held proxies and a sprinkling of the wives of the committee men arrived here. A trolley ride about the city followed, after which special cars carried the delegates to Fairview. Mr. Bryan and Mr. Kern were at the depot to meet them and had a word for each as he entered. Joy Among Lincoln. tes. Greetings over, the sun parlor was cleared of all not having official busi ness, Mr. Taggart called the meeting to order, and Sergeant-at-Arms John I. Mar tin, smiling contentedly at the absence of aisles to be cleared, stood guard at the door. Through the open "windows, from time to time, could be heard the voices of speakers and, the voice which announced that Mr. Bryan's notification would be at Lincoln, being particularly strong, the news, all-important locally, soon spread like wild-fire amid general jubilation. Almost the first act was the read ing by Mr. Bryan of a statement by the Vice-Presidential nominee and himself. Mr. Bryan said: Recalls Publicity Plank. Aside from desiring to meet you person ally. I thought there were certain things that ought to be decided upon at once, and as I have the honor of having with me at this time our candidate for Vice-President, Mr. Kern, I have conferred with him about two or three matters and I shall present at this time a request In which he and I join. I have reduced it to writing. The platform recently adopted by the Na tional convention of our party at Denver, contains the following pledge: "We pledge the Democratic party i to the enactment of a law prohibiting any cor poration from contributing to a campaign fund, and any individual from contributing any amount above a reasonable num. and providing for the publication, before elec tions, of all contributions of a reasonable minimum." Mr. Kern and I are in hearty sympathy with this pledge, and are gratified at lta adoption. With its fulfillment a new era In American politics will begin. Elections will then be regarded as public affairs, and the Influences which control them. In stead of being secret, will be known to the voters. a an earnest token that our party will make good In Its pledge, .we ask you to construe this plank and put It Into Immedi ate operation. This can be done by the adoption of a resolution announcing that. In pursuance of the policy outlined In that pledge, your committee will not accept any contribution from any Individual above a reasonable amount, and that it will make publication before election of all contri butions above a reasonable minimum. We suggest for your approval a maximum of $10,000 and a minimum of $100. no contri bution to be received abovo 10,000. and all contributions above $100 to be made public before election. We suggest also that on or before October 15, publication shall be made of all con tributions above 100 received up to that date; that after October IS publication shall be made of such contributions on the day that the same are received and that no contribution above $100 shall be accepted within three days of the election. Committee Adopts Suggestion. Mr. Bryan's suggestion was promptly adopted amid applause, as was another one providing for the publication of a complete st of campaign expenditures within 30 days of the election. The resolution is as follows: Resolved, that the Democratic National committee, in pursuance of the pledge given in the National platform recently adopted at Denver, announces that It will accept no contributions whatever from cor porations; that it will accept no individual contributions above $10,000; that it will make publication before the election of In dividual contributions above $100, contri butions received before October 15 being published on or before that date, and con tributions received after that date being published on the date they are received; and that no contributions above $100 shall be accepted within three days of the elec tion.

Teal, when the matter of awarding contracts for the building of at least two steamers for the run from Celilo locks to Lewlston. Idaho, will be taken up. The Importance of having this line of boats put into commission is regarded by those who have been for years working for an up-river transportation line as one of more vital interest to Portland than any similar project that has yet been proposed. At the meeting this afternoon it will be decided whether one or two boats shall be built for the run above the port age road at Celilo. and If possible it is intended that the boats shall be in com mission before the next crop is handled.
