CLOSE IX CHEHALIS COIXTV
Cosgrove and McBride Racing for
First Choice Honors.
ABERDEEN. Wash., Sept- 10. (Spe
cial.) Complete returns from 21 of the
44 precincts of the county show a close
race between McBride and Cosgrove
on first choice votes. These 21 pre
cincts, which include all the large ones
of the county, give McBride 925 on first
choice and 3T6 on "second: Cosgrove
837 first and 705 second; Mead 680 first
and 602 second. '
Aberdeen gave McBride 381 first
choice and 130 second; Mead 290 first
and 199 second; Cosgrove 242 first and
270 second.
Twenty-eight out of the 44 precincts
in this county, including all the large
ones, give Congressman Jones a ma
jority over Senator Ankeny of 1028.
The missing precincts are all counted
for Jones.
Aberdeen gave the Congressman 622
votes, against 429 for Ankeny. The
Congressman lost two precincts, the
Fourth and Sixth, the one by 13 and
the other by 32. He lost one precinct
in Montesane by one vote, but carried
the town by a majority of 9. Mocllps,
where the senior Senator stopped for a
few days during the Summer, gave
Ankeny a majority of IS. So far as
returns now show. Ankeny carried no
other precinct in the county.
In Aberdeen, John G. Lewis received
996 votea out of 1129 cast for State
Treasurer. In Hoqulam he received
530 votes out of S3j; in Montesano. 248
out of 339. His majority over both his
opponents is. so far as now known,
1635 and this will probably run to 2200.

RESULTS IX FIRST DISTRICT
p
Jones Leads Ankenj Hay Gets Big
ger Vote Than Coon. .
SEATTLE. Wash., Sept. NX (Special.)
The returns from the counties of the
First district have been slow in coming in
and none have been reported complete.
However, the majority of the Seattle pre
cincts. Bellingham and most of the larger
country precincts have been reported and
a, fair idee of the trend of the vote can
be obtained. Congressman Jones will
have a clear lead of 2iu0 in the district,
all counties except King giving him a
. big majority.
King County gives Ankeny a lead of
but this Is offset by the other coun
ties. Snell cut in on the Jones vote In
King County, getting over W0 votes. For
the Governorship. McBride leads on first
choice In the district, but his lead is only
lfliiO over Cosgrove, the next man, who
beats Mead by 2X. This makes it im
possible for McBride to land the neces
sary 40 per cent, and on second choice
Cosgrove has both his competitors badly
beaten, having nearly fi the best of It.
In King County McBride was first and
v. ffuul second Dlaoe. In. trie
Lieutenant-Governorship fight, all the in
dications point to Hay. While he is
beaten for first choice by Morrison and
Coon in King County, he comes UP with
a fine second choice vote and with the
same proportions maintained over the dis
trict, he seems to have spoiled Coon s
chance for winning on first choice.
It Is Impossible to say who leads for
State Treasurer, although the fight lies
between Erwin and Lewis with the latter'
leading by 400 In King County. For Attorney-General
Tanner has the big end on
first choice with Bell second. On second
choice, however. Bell has the highest
figure. The total vote in the district was
disappointingly small. The Republicans
polled about 3S.00O of which 24.000 was
obtained in King County.

because they were not allowed to vote a

In Vancouver the registration was 1151.

FIGHTS
BRIDGE PROJECT
Railroad President Says .Cor
poration's Franchise Should
Not Be Annulled.
LETTER SENT TO MAYOR
City Authorities Notified That Seri
ous Objections Will Be Made to
Any Infringement of Ex-
isting Rights.
A fight will be made by the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company against
the construction of a new bridge across
the Willamette River at Madison street
under the terms proposed by the City
Council. The ordinance passed at Wed
nesday's meeting of the Council proposes
to annul the traction company's fran
chise across the bridge, and provides that
the toll of 11200 now levied on the com
pany shall be Increased to $15,000 per year.
President Josselyn, of the traction com
pany, insists that the franchise held by
the corporation should not be annulled,
and that it has 13 years yet to run. It
was a 30-year franchise and was accepted
in lieu of a 99-year franchise when the
Madison-street bridge was purchased by
the city from the Columbia Bridge Com
pany and thrown open to the public as a
free bridge.
President Josselyn holds that before the
bonds are disposed of to provide for the
construction of a new bridge arrange
ments should be made with his company
for the surrender of its present fran
chise. He admits that the tolls paid by
his company are low, and Is willing that
they be increased to some extent, but
says he will resist the payment of any
thing like what is proposed in the new
bond Issue.
Mr. Josselyn has written a letter to
Mayor Lane opening up the whole ques
tion. It follows:
Sept. 10, 1908.
Hon. Harry Lane, Mayor City of Portland,
Or. My Dear Sir: I note that at a meeting
of the City Council yesterday an ordinance
was r-asse! by that body providing- for the
sale of the $4.V.Ooo In bonds for the erection
of a new bridge across the Willamette River
on the site of the present Madison-street
bridge.
Plea understand that this- company does
no wish In any way to obstruct public prog
ress in the city, iii which It has vital In
terests dependent upon the welfare of the
community: but the fact remains that we
are the owners of a 30-year franchise on Madi
son bridge, which has about 13 years yet to
run. This franchise was accepted by our
predecessor In Interest. In lieu of a 99-year
franchise for the exclusive right to lay rails
and operate cars across that bridge; which
said franchise was obtained for a valuable
consideration paid to the Columbia Street
Bridge Company. To further aarist the city
In purchasing the bridge and throwing it open
to public travel, our predecessor agreed to
pay a rental of f 1200 per year for the use of
the bridge for the operation of its cars.
It Is now proposed to tear down the present
bridge and annul our present franchise and
to build in place of said structure a new
bridge: the act therefor carrying a provision
that this company hall pay a minimum of
$15,000 per year for the use of the new
bridge.
We wish to call your attention now, before
any further action Is taken by the city in the
sale of these bonds, or the construction of
the new bridge, that we shall Insist that our
present franchise be not changed by the city.
We appreciate that the present annual pay
ment for use' of the Madison-street bridge is
small, and we would be willing to have it In
creased to some extent, but we shall resist
the payment of anything like what is pro
posed In the new bond issue.
This action of the Council Is based upon
the amendment to the charter adopted at the
June election of 1907. relating to the Isjvulng
of bonds for construction of this new bridge.
While this amendment provided for the issu
ing of 4.v.wo In bonds by the city, your
attention Is respectfully called to the pro
visions of subdivision E of said amendment,
by which It Is made the duty of the Execu
tive Board, before constructing said bridge,
to enter Into negotiations with tlfls company
Tor the surremder of Its present franchise
and all other right and privileges on the
pieoent bridge, and that the City Executive
Board Is authorized to enter Into a new con
tract with this company and grant a fran
chise for. operating care over said bridge for
a term of not exceeding 25 years.
It is further provided in said subdivision E
that in case eald Executive Board shall not
make auch an agreement with this company,
that In such event said Executive Board may
In ltsi discretion temporarily or permanently
discontinue or abandon any further steps or
proceedings toward the building of said
bridge: or may. In Its discretion, proceed
to acquire by condemnation, as provided In
said amendment 6f the charter. In the name
of the city, all franchise rights and privileges
owned by this company.
The sale of the bonds at this time Is pre
mature, for the reason that even If the bonds
should be sold. It Is In the power and discre
tion of the Executive Board not to construct
said bridge at all: and that before the Ex
ecutive Board constructs said bridge, it shall
enter Into negotiations with this company,
looking to the surrender of the present fran
chise over said bridge.
In addition, your attention Is respectfully
called to the fact that the city cannot con
demn such franchise, as provided in said
amendment of (he charter, because such con
demnation would be merely connecatlon, and
not condemnation authorized by law.
Before said bonds are actually sold, these
matters should be determined, so that if pos
sible a proper arrangement can be made with
this company. I submit whether any fran
chise could be granted on action taken by
the Executive Board other than as provided
bv said amendment to the charter.
Tour attention Is also called to the fact
that the Executive Board should determine
whether thle bridge Is to b built, before the
bonds are sold, for the city might be placed
In the position of selling Its bonds and re
ceiving the proceeeds therefrom without any
poer to legally expend the same.
The objeot of this letter Is for the purpose
of preventing any possible misunderstanding
tn the matter before the city has gone to any
expense In advertising the sale of bonds, until
the matters as referred to above shall have
been adjusted, and not for the purpose of
obstructing public Improvements. Very truly
yours. iMgnea.i o. o. juo.-r.ui..

HOLE IS KNOCKED IN LAW
(Continued From First Page.)
great length the limitations put upon
Congress by the Constitution and con
cluded as follows:
From every point of view which we have
been able to approach the question, the
unreasonableness and consequent Invalidity
of this so-called "commodities clause" is
apparent. It invades the rights of the
state by striking down the liberty hitherto
Innocently enjoyed by Its citizens under
the laws and usages of the commonwealth
to engage In Interstate commerce to the
fullest extent as to all harmless articles,
whether owned or not owned by the car
rier, and deprives of their property the
defendants, contrary to the letter and spirit
of the fifth amendment to the Constitu
tion. Opens Door to Centralization.
If the enactment In question be' war
ranted by the commeroe clause of the Con
stitution, it is hard to see what bounds
may be set to the exercise of that por.
It will Indeed be an open door, through
which the forces of centralisation hitherto
unknown may enter at will, to the over
throw of that Just balance between Fed
eral and state power, for which the mak
ers of the Constitution so wisely provided
as an essential to the preservation of our
dual form of government.
We confine ourselvs to the concrete facts
presented by the pleadings in these cases
and Intimate no opinion either way as to
cases where the property has been ac
quired by the carriers subsequent to the
passage of the act. For the reasons stated,
therefore, these bills In equity are dis
missed and the petition for writs of man
damus on the law side of this court are
denied.
Judge Dallas, in his opinion, said that
he fully concurred In the foregoing.
Prior to the clause going Into effect, the
anthracite coal carrying railroads went
before the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion and said that they could not comply
with the clause without making great
sacrifices. Thereupon the Government
agreed not to enforce the clause until a
decision was had upon law points involv
ing its constitutionality.
Contentions in Test Case.
The Department of Justice then filed a
bill in equity upholding the Government's
contention that the clause was constitu
tional. The railroads. In their answers.
declared the clause to be conflscatedly
discriminating and a prohibition and not
a regulation; that it deprived the railroads
of "liberty and property," and violated a
right reserved to the states.
The interstate commerce act provides a
penalty not to exceed $5000 for each viola
tion of the clause. During the argument
it was contended by the defendants that
each car of coal shipped in violation of
the clause could be construed under the
act as an offense and, as the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad shipped daily 1200 cars of an
thracite coal In Interstate commerce, that
railroad, under such an Interpretation,
would be liable to a fine of $6,000,000 each
day.
GOVERNMENT , WILL APPEAL
Fight Case to Finish Serious Ef
fect of Decision.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 10. That an ap
peal doubtless will be tajcen within 60
days directly to the Supreme' Court of
the United States from today's decision
of the United States Circuit Court at
Philadelphia, declaring unconstitutional
the commodities clause of the Hepburn
act, was the statement of Acting Attorney-General
Russell today. The action of
the Philadelphia court created wide inter
est at the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion and the Department of Justice. In
terstate Commerce Commissioner Judson
Clements expressed the hope that the de
cision rests upon some curable defect in
the language of the clause. He said:
I don't know the grounds upon which the
clause in question Is held by the court to
be unconstitutional. I cannot, therefore,
discuss the decision except to say that I
trust It is not upon the broad ground that
CongTess has not the power to prohibit
carriers engaged In Interstate oommerce
from carrying their own products In com
petition with their patrons. So long aa
this practice la permitted the temptation
to discriminate Is ever present and too
strong for resistance. The Indirect meth
ods of discrimination are numerous and
past finding out In many Instances until
they have done their deadly work. It
has been overwhelmingly shown that the
practice has resulted In Intolerable conse
quences. During Senator Knox's term as Attorney-General,
an act was passed upon his
recommendation and approved June 29,
1906, providing' for expediting such cases
and assigning them for hearing at the
earliest practical day, and it is declared
that they shall have priority of hearing
and determination by the Supreme Court
of the United States over all otfier except
criminal cases.
Attorney-General Bonaparte is out of

formation on the subject, said he had no
doubt that an appeal will be taken within
the 60 days provided by law.
