INDORSEMENT OF
BRYAN BOMBSHELL
Woodmen Very Indignant at
Rabid Partisan Utterances
of Official Organ.
POLITICS IS ESCHEWED
According to Bylaws "Pacific
Woodman" Is Strictly Nonparti
san, bat Current Number
Is Strongly for Bryan.
Surprise was mingled with indignation
among the members of the Woodmen of
the World in this city yesterday after
they had reviewed the contents of the
October number of the Pacific Woodman,
the official organ of the order, published
In San Francisco. The publication con
tained a formal indorsement of the can
didacy of William Jennings Bryan and
an extended commendatory article on the
candidacy of John Paulson, Democratic
nominee for Governor of Washington.
This pronounced stand politically on the
part of the Woodman has thoroughly
aroused local members of the order, who
declare that the by-laws and constitution
of tlielr organization expressly prohibit
any participation by the official organ In
subjects of a religious or a political
nature.
Tiie contents of the Woodman for this
month to which members of the order
in this city especially take exception In
clude on the first page an article under
the caption, "What Democracy Means."
Under this heading follow ten references
to the Democratic National platform, in
cluding an indorsement of the candidacy
of Pattison for Governor of Washing
ton and the following formal indorsement
of the candidacy of Bryan as "our" can
didate in the following terms:
"W. J. Bryan, the most progressive
man of the age, our candidate for Presi
dent." Strong Indorsement of Pattison.
In addition to the short series of para
graphs in which both Bryan and Pat
tison are Indorsed as the candidates of
the Woodmen, there la a column article.
Including a portrait of Pattison. in which
the candidacy of the Democratic nominee
for Governor of Washington Is warmly
commended.
This story appears under the caption,
"From Newsboy to Governor; John Pat
tison, of Colfax; An Inspiration to Every
Poor Boy."
As an Introduction to the story ap
pears the following paragraph: "The
following story of the life of John Patti
son. of Colfax, candidate for Governo.-.
was written by a prominent Jurist of the
state of Washington."
The Woodman is printed In San Frao
cisco under direction of the board of
managers of the order. The editor of
the publication is M. T. Moses, past
head consul of the order, who Is held
personally responsible for these unusual
utterances of the paper. The Woodman
Is the official organ of the Woodmen of
tne World of the Pacific Jurisdiction,
which embraces the following nine
states: Utah, Colorado. Nevada, Idaho,
Washington, Oregon, California, Mon
tana and Arizona. In those states the
order has a membership of about 100.000,
among whom the paper circulates.
Xo C'liunce for Retroaction.
T.nnn.. Knw amnnf. t h members of the
order in this city perhaps would not be
so great but for the fact that the In
dorsement of ths two Democrats Is
printed In tne last issue wi tne y"1 .7
fore election practically on the eve of
election, and too late to permit of an
explanation or a correction through the
same avenue before the day of the elec
tion. Local Woodmen now propose to
forward a protest directly to Head Con
sul Boak and copies are now being cir
culated among the members of the order
In this city. A copy 01 mis pennon oo
follows:
. . . , ..- i . , WitrM la a. DO-

have been perfectly satisned with it, but we
feel that It ahould ateer cfcar of politics
and that the aubtect ahould not be dia
cussed by the Pa.-ltlc Woodman (the mouth-pit-re
ot the order 1 even though Bryan
may be a member of It.
Barbur Vents Disapproval.
"The editor of the Pacific Woodman is
appointed from a fraternal and not a po
litical consideration," declared A. L. Bar
bur clerk of Webfoot Camp. No. 65. with
a membership of 1300. "The Woodman
Is the official publication of the order
for the Pacific Jurisdiction and Is sup
posed to be non-pollttcal and nen-rell- (
glou for the order Includes members
of all political affiliations and religious
denominations. The publication is In
tended to be devoted solely to the best
Interests of the order. It Is published
monthlv under the direction of the board
of governors, at an expense per issue of
about 150. including a salary of J12S a
Ifionth. The contents of each Issue are
subject to review by Head Consul I. I.
Boak but it is a practical certainty that
the official head of the order did not see
the articles objected to or they would
not have appeared. Of course. I do not
know that there Is anything which pro
hibits the paper from printing advertise
ments of candidates for political office at
regular advertising rates, but the arti
cles Indorsing Bryan and Pattison are
printed as pure reading matter. In vio
lation of the regulations governing the
publication of the paper, which explicitly
prohibit all volunteer political expres
sions as to political parties and candi
dates." Jennings Favors Reprimand.
"There are two things that the Wood
men seek to keep out of their organiza
tion religion and politics.", said J. J.
Jennings, consul commander of Prospect
Camp. No. 140, and president of the com
mittee having In charge the management
of the head camp session of the Wood
men, which meets here In July. 191"
Under its constitution and by-laws,
neither has any place In the order, which
exists purelv for fraternal purposes. The
editor, who must be responsible for
printing this partisan expression, should
be reprimanded severely by the member
ship of the order for thus seeKlng,
through a fraternal publication, without
any offietal authorization whatever, to
advance the interests of any political
party or the candidate of any party."
Voodworth Greatly Surprised.
..n i nthap tl-AnHmnn in athis
rmuniii. w..,. ---
Jurisdiction was more surprised than I
at the contents of the first page of this
month's issue of the Pacific Woodman,"
said J. M. Woodworth. clerk of Multno
mah Camp, No. 177. Including a mem
bership of nearly 1300. ' "The Pattison
and Bryan articles certainly were not
the proper thing to be printed in a paper
of the fraternal character of the Wood
man. Undoubtedly the Woodmen will
take the matter up and register with the
head officers of the order a vigorous pro
test against such tacttcs. The Woodmen
order always has refrained from a par
ticipation In politics and religion and the
action of the order's official publication
is certainly a radical departure from its
established policy."
Aumack Finds "o Excuse.
"Most assuredly I de not approve of
the partisan expressions contained in this
month's issue of the Pacific Woodman,"
remarked L. N. Aumack. past consul of
Prospect Camp. No. 140. "and I have
written to Head Consul Boak to thtt ef
fect. The official organ of any frater
nal order should be strictly non-partisan.
The mere fact that Mr. Bryan is a mem
ber of the order is no reason why the
paper should advocate his election. Be
sides, any discussion of religious or- po
litical subjects in the paper Is strictly
prohibited by the constitution and by
laws of the order." (
MINING DISTRICT ACTIVE
Portland Engineer Returns From
Trip to Santiaiu Country..
A. S. Wells, a Portland mining en
gineer who visited the Santiam min
ing district during the past week, re
ports renewed activity in that section.
Heretofore it has been difficult to
operate the mines on account of the
lack of roads and consequent difficul
ties in getting In the necessary sup
piles, but through the Joint effort of
Marlon County and the miners, a road
Is being built from Gates to the min
ing camps. Marion County pays for
the erection of the bridges. In the
construction of the road to the mining
district. Otto Hansen, of Salem, has
been particularly helpful in initiating
the work.
There are six companies doing de
veloping work In the district. Otto
Hansen has just ordered a compressed
air drill to be used in development
lines. The Gold Creek Mining Ac Mill
ing Company, of Salem, will spend
i 15.000 on its claim the coming season,
which will be operated by water
power. Paul Gadson, of the Portland
Smelting Company, has submitted t5
the mine-owners of the district a plan
to erect and operate a 100-ton smelter
as soon as the mines will supply him
with 100 tons of ore a day. with the
result that there Is renewed activity.
Manager Smith, of the Electric Mining
& Milling Company, of Portland, will
take charge of the company's plant
and push operations. With the erec
tion of a 100-ton smelter It is ex
pected that the development of the
mines In the district will be pushed
with more activity than ever.
Engineer Wells found that consid
erable development work has been
done along practical and successful
lines. There is plenty ot water-power
In the district for operating mills,
furnishing electric lights and power
tor other purposes.
WED, THEN PART AT ALTAR
Discarded Woman Thrusts Clilld
Into Arms of Bridegroom.
CHICAGO. Oct. 26. A dispatch to
the Tribune- from Fall River, Mass.,
Eays:
Like the climax in a drama was the
revenue of a- discarded woman at the
wedding of her suitor and her rival
here yesterday. The marriage of
Charles J. Reagan, banker, and Miss
Mary B. Chadwick was the social event
of the season. The church was filled
with friends. After the ceremony, the
bride and members of the wedding
party started down the aisle as the
wedding march was. played. A closely
veiled woman, clad In black, arose,
picked up a 4-year-old boy and held
him out to Mr. Reagan.
"Stop, Charles Reagan," she cried.
'Miss MiaB Sullivan!" gasped Rea
gan. "Yes, It is I," answered the woman.
"Here he Is. Here is your child. I've
taken care of him for four years.
Now you must take him you and your
wife."
The woman turned and walked out.
The bride fainted and friends were
horrorstricken. Reagan stood alone In
the church aisle, holding In his arms
the baby who was crying for his moth
er. When the bride revived she re
turned to hor home alone. Mr. Reagan
left town last evening, refusing to
make known his destination. He took
the child with him.
MOTHER-IN-LAW IN SUIT
Dentist Asks $10,000 for Gunshot
Wound She Inflicted.
NEW YORK. Oct. 26. James W.
Simpson, the dentist who was accused
of the murder of his father-in-law,
Bartlcy Horner, and was later shot by
his mother-in-law, as he was trying to
enter the house in which Mrs. Horner
and Mrs. Simpson were living, has sued
Mrs. Horner tor 10,000 damages for
the -latter shooting, which he claims
was "without cause or provocation."
Mrs. Horner In her answer to the suit
recites the facts of the killing of her
husband, who died as the result of
wounds caused by a discharge from a
gun in Simpson's hands, which Simpson
claimed and the jury decided was dis
charged bv accident. She says she was
a witness against Simpson in his trial I
and that her daughter afterwards re
fused to live with Simpson, but resided
with her. Simpson had been forbidden
the house, but attempted to see his
wife, and Mrs. Horner shot him be
cause. Bhe said, she had been told he
entertained very bitter feelings against
her. and she was afraid he would try
to kill her.
Defendant Fails to Appear.
Because George W. Beaver failed to
appear before Judge Morrow yesterday
morning when the suit, brought against
him by G. L.. J. T. and C. H. Davenport
came up for trial, he must pay the
plaintiffs 20 or Judgment will be taken
against him. Attorneys Jeffrey and
Lennon, representing Beayer, explained
to the court that they were not aware
until late last week that the case had
been set down for trial yesterday. The
suit was brought to recover $171.75
for fruit delivered, but alleged to be
unpaid for.

PROTESTS ARE FEW
Less Than One Per Cent of
Taxpayers Before Board.
EQUALIZATION WORK ENDS
Total Number of Complaints Against
Valuations Fixed by Assessor Is
376, Out or S8.000 Persons
Subject to Taxation.
When the County Board of Equaliza
tion closed Its sessions yesterday after
noon the records showed that less than
1 per cent of the 88.000 persona subject to
taxation on the personal rolls had filed
protests against their assessments. The
total number of protests received was 376
as against 340 last year, but the total num
ber of personal statements received this
year exceeded those of last year by more
than 40W.
Quite a number of the protests were due
to-The assessor's inquiries Into the stand
ing of estates. The records of the probate
court were searched, and the result was
the placing of many persons upon the
rolls. Subsequent investigation showed
that tle funds-of the estates had been
distributed, and the attorneys and ad
ministrators had neglected to file final
accounts. -
"The inattention of the parties in charge
of these matters," said County Assessor
Sigler after the adjournment of the
Board, "caused us a great deal of trou
ble. If the affairs of estates had been
closely looked after, my office, the
Courtly Court and the County Board of
Equalization would not have to take up
and consider the papers filed, and the
parties involved would not have been
compelled to appear before us here with
a protest and again for adjustment or for
cancellation of their assessment. Owing
to these estate cases many people will
have to .come before us again, and all
this trouble to them would have btsen
avoided if the attorneys had attended to
the final details in the court."
Then the Assessor turned about to re
ceive a protest from the Hawthorne es
tate, which la incorporated. The estate
was assessed at $546,500 on 123 lots In
Hawthorne Park and Park Addition, and
asked that the figure be reduced to $463,
450. The property was largely unim
proved, the petition stated, and the as
sessment was unjust. The assessment on
block A had been increased from $53,400 In
1S07 to $85,000 in 1908. and on block B from
$55,000 to $75,000. The estate asked for a
reduction of 10 per cent below the valua
tion of 1907, or an assessment not In ex
cess of the figure of that year.
Three personal statements were' filed by
K. A. J. Mackenzie. In the first he ob
jects to the assessment of $7000 on his fur
niture. The furniture, he said, had always
been assessed too high, and no account
had been taken of depreciation In Its
value. He asked that the figure be re
duced to $4000. On lot 8, block 8. he was
assessed for $33,000 and $6200 for improve
ments. He thought a reasonable assess
ment was $35,000. On lots 3 and 3. block
3, Couch Addition, he waa assessed for
$47,000. He asked for a reduction of
$2000 on these lots.
Clementina Rodney objected to the as
sessment of $23,600 on lots 1 and 2, block
25, Albina. She had never been offered
more than $32,000 for the property, she
says, and Its monthly rental Is only $150.
"I'll give you an option on this property

MEN
I Cure the Cases That
Others Cannot Cure
A bold statement, but Just as true as it is
bold. Not all cases that others fall to cure are
curable by mv methods, but fully ninety per
cent of them are. The way to learn whether
vour case is curable is to consult me. I know
exactly what can be done in every instance. I
ought to know this, for I have done nothing
else other than treat men's diseases for twenty

Weakness
Functional weakness In men is
in reality a comparatively simple
ailment, and is but a symptom of
local disorder, a state of chronic
inflammation of the prostate

absolutely normal conditions
throughout the organs involved,
which promptly results in com
plete and permanent restoration of
strength and vigor. This treat
ment is original with me, and is
' the only radical and certain cure
yet devised.
