FEAR OF WESTERN
RULE II SENATE
Judge A. B. Fall Explains Why
Attempts for Statehood
Are Blocked.
M'HARG IS INCOMPETENT
6ys He Did Nothing to Hinder Spe
cial Agent of Government, but
Declares He Lacks Kxperience
and Legal Knowledge.
EL PASO, Texas, Feb. 2S. In a state
ment here tonight. Judge A. B. Fall
answers charges made against his record
as Attorney-General for New Mexico anil
explains his position with reference to
the investigation conducted by Special
Prosecutor Ormsby Moliars, in chars? of
the Department of Justice, who was sent
to New Mexico by Attorney-fJeneral
Bonaparte in connection with land frauds.
Incidentally, Judge Fall advances his
opinion to cover failure of the statehood
bill before the present cession of the
Congress.
According to Judge Fall. MoHarg told
a falsehood when lie informed the Senate
committee on territories that he had been
hampered by the Attorney-General of
New Mexico in his land-fraud investiga
tions. Failure of statehood he attributes
to an unwillingness to allow the Senate
to pass into the control of radical, or
Western. Legislators.
McIIarg Not Competent.
His statement, is in part as follows:
"Mcilarg was not hampered here in
any way. If he has made a statement
to that effect he lied to me when I
met him recently in- Washington. So
far as the statements of Senator Nelson
are concerned, they would be ridiculous
If they were not Intended solely for
defeating statehood.
"I told Mr. Bonaparte that McIIarg
was not competent to do the work In
New Mexico, and that because of his
lack of experience and legal knowledge
he was not competent to represent the
United States In any position where he
had to use any discretion. He was
finally removed.
"So far as Hagerman is concerned, I
imagine any telegram he sent was at
the solicitation of Senator Beveridge.
I'car of Western Kule.
"New Mexico has been a territory for
the last 50 years. During the past sev
eral years many Federal positions have
been tilled by politicians from other
states, and the territories are still full
of those men. who could not make an
honest living and could not go back to
their own states. They ido not want to
see the territory become a state.
"Did you ever stop to consider the
number of Senators? Deduct the Demo
crat! and see how many it requires to
make a caucus. Two Republican Sena
tors from New Mexico would enable
what is known as Western, or radical,
rule to control absolutely in the United
States Senate. This is the whole sum
of the opposition to statehood for New
Mexico."
DENIES KNOCKING STATEHOOD
Ex-Governor Hagerniun Talks on
Defeat of Measure.
ALBCQUBRQUE, N. M.. Feb. ZK In
a telegram from Albany, N. Y., Herbert
J. Hagerman, ex-Governor of New Mex
ico, denies that he hud attacked the
people or New Mexico before the Stnate
committee on territories.
"I left Washington over a week ago."
said Mr. Hagerman. "and never ap
peared before the Senate committee or
had communication with it. W. II.
Andrews and his forces cannot shift re
sponsibility fory the defeat of the state
hood bill, when they brought about the
conditions which resulted In that de
feat. New Mexico is entitled to state
hood, but the present situation proves
that she cannot get it uf long as dis
creditable men are chosen to represent
her In Washington or elsewhere."
Mr. Hagerman said the story that he
had declared the people of New Mexico
unfit for statehood" and illiterate was
absolutely false.

HEiNtHCH HAS CHALLENGE
OFFERS TO WIIESTLE EDDIE
O'COXXELL IX I'OIITLAXU.
Proposes Even Terms at 16S Pounds
or Dig Forfeit If Taken at
Own Weight.
SPOKANE. Wash.. Feb. 28. ( Special.')
"I hereby challenge Eddie O'Connell.
athletic instructor of Multnomah Ath
letic Club, to meet me in a bout at Port
land, April 13, catch-as-catch-can. either
at even terms at 165 pounds weight, or
if he allows me to mirke my own weight
I will agree to throw him three falls
In an hour for any amount from $250 to
J1000."
This challenge was issued at Colfax
today by Joe Heinrich. charged by An
drew Miller, of Portland, with having
"thrown" his recent match with O'Con
nell. Heinrich today denies Miller's
story. He also denies the alleged cor
roborative statement made by E. Rich
ards, manager of the Waldorf poolrooms
in Portland, in which Richards claims to
have given the $100 to Heinrich, which,
it is said, the Spokane man was to
receive for "laying down" to O'Connell.
Heinrich said:
"These stories are lies from beginning
to end. The match was absolutely on
the square and was won try O'Connell on
its merits. There was never at any
time any suggestion made to me from
any source whatsoever that the match
was not to be absolutely on the square,
and if Miller or anyone else was given
any money to buy me they said nothing
to me about It. nor did they pay the
money over to me."
FIRST TEST ON HOME RULE
Townships in Spokane County Vote
Tuesday on Ijocal Option.
SPOKANE. Wash.. Feb. 28. (Special.)
Prohibition, or its equivalent, will be
voted on by the electors of townships in
Spokane County Tuesday morning. A
peculiarity of the situation is that town
ships that fail to vote for saloons, or
fail to vote at all. will be "dry," and
saloons in all parts of the county except
incorporated cities seem to be doomed to
extinction.
Townships will elect Clerks, Road Over
seers. Justices of thp Peace. Assessors,
Constables and three Supervisors. It will
be the first test of the township govern
ment law recently enacted by the State
Legislature. The "lid" will be clampad
on all notorious roadhouses. of which
there are a half dozen near Spokane.

samples: To a Manhattan Senator: "If we do not

lish sisters will seem more like a Sun

of warfare we propose to conduct. We

"Your mother had eight sons and vou

mother?"
Strike Snag in Speaker.
The suffragettes, however, have run
up against one Immovable force in the
person - of James W. Wadsworth Jr.,
Speaker of the Assembly. Mr. Wads
worth does not believe women should
have the ballot and his views will prob
ably be received with careful considera
tion by his colleagues.
"Women will n-t obtain the franchise
at least for a long while." Pays Mr.
Wadsworth. "and I might add that they
will uot be allowed to vote as long as J
can prevent It.
"Women are not fitted for it. I do not
mean that they are not intelligent
enough. I mean that thev are tempera
mentally unfit. Politics Is an exceed
ingly good thing for women to k'-p out
of- It is nothing but one huge fight, you
know. And women cannot fight. That
Is they cannot hit out straight from the
shoulder. They scratch. and It is not
good for their disposition.
"Besides, if they vote, they should be
logically eligible for public office and
jury duly. Imagine a mixed jury or
men and wom?n! Do you fancv an
agreement could ever be reached?" '
"Furthermore, it is my private opin
ion that the good woman, the intelli
gent, refined gentlewoman, as a class
would not care to vote. A good wom
an Is so Infinitely more sensitive to
surroundings than a good man. she
naturally shrinks from notoriety and
publicity.
"No. sir. the cornerstone of a wom
an's character Is the probability of ap
peal through her sympathies, and that
in my opinion, let's her out from civic
duties."
Naturally, the suffragettes are In
dignant at Wadsworth's statement, but
they are full of enthusiasm, and af
fect to believe that it will have very
little weight with the legislators.
The plans now under consideration
provide for a dozen special trains
from Oreater New York and four from
up-state. There will also be banners
galore, bands of music and numerous
glee clubs. All in all. vlbar.v is prom

socialist ,id Woman's Suffrage In
Many Cities.
NEW YORK. Feb. 28. Throughout
the United States today. In every city
in which a meeting could be arranged,
there was an "equal suffrage demon
stration" under the auspices of the So
cialist party and the Socialist women's
societies. The meetings were provided
for at the National conference of the
Socialist part? in Chicago, which set
February 28 aside as a "woman suf
frage" day.
Two meetings were held here, one in
the Murray Hill Lyceum, in Manhat
tan, the other in the Jjhor Lyceum, in
Brooklyn. Prominent sociaiists and
suffragists were present, and the en
thusiasm manifested was sincere and
earnest.
In the Manhattan meeting Miss Lebna
O'Reilly, a girl of tho tenement district
and a prominent member of the Wom
an's Trade Union, denounced the women
who oppose equal suffrage.
Miss O'Reilly was one of those who
spoke before the judiciary committee
of the Assembly at Albany last week.
She said one of the legislators had
spoken flippantly of the quality of
women's brains.
"There are many men there." said

Mrs. Anita Block, secretary or the
Women's Socialist Society, presided.
She said she was both glad and sad
to call attention to the fact that this
was the first woman suffrage meeting
ever hehi under, the avowed auspices of
a political party.
"The Socialist party." she said, "is
now the recognized champion in the
political arena of women."
Miss Metta Stein, well known as a
Socialist writer under the name of
"Hebe," derided the pampered and pet
ted women of the so-called upper
classes who have foftned anti-suffrage
societies. She said they were "foolish
and narrow." and afraid of responsi
bility. One thousand women and several
hundred men attended the meeting in
Brooklyn, which enthusiastically in
dorsed the right of women to vote. Mrs.

Miss Inez Mulholland, of London, now a

ing here today that there were two
camps of women favoring suffrage in
England. One was composed of suffra

first had been for 60 years acting "real

the latter demanded and proposed to get
those rights.

DEBATERS WORKING HARD
OIIKGOX VXIVER.SITY TEAMS
PREPARE FOR DAY.
Oxford Methods of Training Are
Employed by Couch in Charge
of Student Debaters.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene.
Feb. 28. (Special.) The two interstate de
bating teams at the university are work
ing under the guidance of Coach Eliot,
in preparation for their respective
matches with the University of Washing
ton and Idaho, on March 28. The affirma
tive team will debate at home while the
negative team will go to Moscow. -Idaho.
Only two experienced debaters are mem
bers of the teams this year. The leader
of the affirmative team Is Jesse H. Bond,
president of the senior class, winner of
the interstate oratorical contest last year
and an interstate debater of three years'
experience. His first colleague Is Horton
C. Nicholas, a Portland boy and a Junior
In college, who did efficient worK on the
affirmative team last year. The second
colleague is Percy M. Collier, a sopho
more, who made his first .attempt at
varsity debating this year. He had cx-p-rlf
nee on the Eugene High School team.
The 1,-nder of the negative team Is
Charles W. Rnblson. an Oregon City lad.
graduate of Portland Academy, uopho
morc in college and this year's winner
of the alumni medal which Is given an
nually to the hrst debater In the unlver
sliy. Lust year Robison attended Wil
liam's College and was on the freshman
team there. Cecil K. Lyons, a junior,
and alternate on the team last Winter,
is the first colleague on the negative. L.
L'on Ray. a fcrmer Eugene High School
dehyiter, is the second colleague.
Samuel Eliot, the coach, while attend
ing Washington-Jefferson University and
during liix four years at Oxford took an
active part In debating. While abroad,
he was a close student of the continental
forms of taxation.
The subject of the interstate debate
reads as follows:
"Waiving the question of constitution
ality, resolved that the United States'
should adopt a progressive Income tax.
with certain exemptions."
The new method of debating Introduced
by Mr. Eliot is that used at Oxford.
Beginning with the fundamental prin
ciples of debating, he is training every
mun individually upon all phases of the
question. The Idea Is that when the
teams are ready for final contests, each
team will not only be a unit, but each
man will be a team In himself. From
now on practice debates will be held be
tween the two trains once every week.

FIVE B IN JOB
Authorities Believe Another
Helped Rob Bank.
TO ARREST OTHERS SOON
Clews 1I lowed by Sherirf and
Pinkerton Lead to Notorious
Eastern Crooks Wells
Will Xot Discuss Case.
Latest developments In the case of the
East Side 'bank robbery seem to show
that five men were implicated In the
daring crime and that their Identity is
known to Sheriff Stevens and the de
tectives of the Pinkerton agency in this
city. While neither the Sheriff nor tho
Pinkerton agency will affirm this new
aspect of the case, at the same time they
will not deny It.
Not only Is the identity of the men
known, but a wealth of evidence pointing
to their guilt i said to have been ac,
cumulated. That this web of proof will
be completed by the SherlfT and the
Pinkerton is expected at an earlv date
to be followed by the actual arrest of
the robbers.
The men sought for . are known to be
clever Eastern crooks, with reputations
in all tho big cities of the country as
men of the utmost daring who have a
number of big robberies on their records.
The present theory as to the number of
men. corroborated by no little evidence,
is that the fifth man watched the polic.--nian
patrolling the boat on which the
bank is situated. While It has been be
lieved that four men were Involved In
the crime, proof of another robber was
not brought to light until yesterday.
According to the present theory of
the cane, two robbers were in the
bank, one on tho sidewalk, one wait
ing with a vehicle a few blocks away,
and one dogging the footsteps of trie
policeman on the beat to prevent by
force or by bullets any Interference
on his part in case of an alarm. None,
of the men is known in Portland save
Wells.
Were-Eastern Crooks.
Including their identity." knowledge
of the present whereabouts of the men
wanted ha.s been obtained. They all
catre from the East and returned al
most Immediately after the crime was
conimltt 1. it is said, with the pro
ceeds of the bank raid In their posses
sion. When urged to give to the public
the details of the case. Superintendent
Henry von Oroone waJ.i, of the Pinker
ton agency, said last flight: "We have
nothing to announce at the present
time, altnough developments may arise
soon which will expose the men who
are guilty of that bank robbery."
Sheriff Stevens was equally nonconi.
miltal. He said: "I have nothing to
say for publication, save that we are
working hard on the case; that we are
not without encouraging clews, and
that we hope to be able to land the
other guilty men behind the bars."
In regard to Wells' guilt.' Sheriff Ste
vens said: "We sometimes know a thing
without being ahlo to prove It. We are
In possession .f the most damaging evi
dence against WYIIr. and will probably
be In possession of absolutely indisput
able proof In a very short time. Wells
is guilty."
Circumstances surrounding Wells' con
nection with the crime and his acquaint.
ance wili bis accomplices are believed
to point to the f.ict that while acting In
the capacity of the business aqctil -f
the Bartenders' Union he visited the
saloons In the city, and been me fa
rrlllar with the resorts frequented by
dangerous yeggmen. Through his visits
to one of these places he is thought to
have formed the acquaintanceship which
ripened into the plans for the robbery
of the East Side Bank.
Until tho time Wells arrived in Pott
land in the custody of Deputy Sheriff
ArHiie lonard. he was not aware of
ti n chat-go against hiiu. Had he known
It it is though I e would hve fought
igoic.t'sly against hcln brought hack
into this state.
Identified by Postal Clerk.
The evidence that Wells called at -the
Ogden postofTice for the package ad
dressed to Charles Price seems to be
conclusive. The clerk at the general de
livery window positively Identified Wells'
photograph. This money u not lost or
spent by Charles Price, of Ogden. who
got tho money package through mistake,
as has been reported, but Is safely In
the Ding e Bank, of Ogden. where it whs
attached by the Federal authorities 24
hours after it had been deposited there
by Price, and is held penning a decision
of the court as to the ownership of the
bills. ,
Wells spent a quit day In the County
Jail yesterday and would say nothing
bearing on his case. He saw neither of
his attorneys and received a visit from
his wif", who up to the present time
has pecreted herself In the home of a
relative on the East Side and success
fully avoided publicity and curiosity
seekers. Her loyalty to her husband,
considering the treatment he is alleged
to have accorded her. Is a source of sur
prise to those who have followed the
case.
Denies He Is "ox-Con."
The accused man denied he was ever
in the Walla Walla penitentiary for
the commission of a crime. "It's a
wonder they wouldn't furnish you re
porters with stamps." he said, and
when asked what be meant by that,
said. "Well, aren't you allowed to use
the telegraph to verify your stories?

There's nothing to it."
"Were you in Ogden at the time the
newspaper package containing $2400
In bills was called for at the post
office?" was asked.
"I have nothing to say about the
case." was the answer.
"I do not care to discuss the case."
answered Wells. "One question would
only lead to another.
"This newspaper agitation doesn't do
any good, except to make matters
worse. I haven't lost a friend hv be
ing arrested. Those who know me uo
not need any explanation througn the
newspapers, and it nakes no differ
ence to the others one way or the

ARREST AROUSES PARIS
Man and Wife. Said to Be Ameri
ca ns. Aft-used of Cruelty.
PARIS. Evb. 2S. Intense Interest was
aroused in Paris today by the arrest at
Asnlers. a suburb or an Englishman

wealthy family, on the charge of gross
ill-treatment of four children whom they

The servants employed by Sargent and
his wif allege that the woman was
guilty of great cruelty.

known institution In the lMXin quarter.
It was handed over to Mrs. Sargent by

NEW IDEA
Helped VI. Couple.
Tt (Inivn't pay to stick too closely to I
oio notions ot things. ,r Ideas often
lead to Wetter health, success and hap
piness. A Wis. couple examined an idea new
to them and st-pped up several rounds
on the health ladder. The husband
writes:
"Several years ago we suffered from i
coffee drinking, were sleepless, nervous. 1
sallow, weak, and Irritable. Mv wife
and I both loved coffee and thought it :
was a bracer." (Delusion).
"Finally, after years of suffering, we
read of IVostunt and the harmftilness of
coffee, and believing that to grow we
should give some attention to new
ideas, we decided to test Postum.
"When we 'made it rlirht we liked it
and were relieved of Ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the cliango
fresher skin, sturdier nerves, better
temper, etc.
"These changes were not sudden, but
relief increased as we continued to
drink and enjov Postum. and we lost
the desire for coffee. ,
"Many of our friends did not like '
Postum at first, because they did not '
make it right. But when they boiled
Po.ttum according to directions on pkg.. j
until it was ours: anil rich itiey liked It
better than coffee and w re benefited
by the change." 'There' a Ileaaon."

A TRUE STORY
And Not a Patent-Medicine' Ad.
Some days since one of Portland's
pioneer citizens laid upon our dis
pensinjr counter a prescription, ay
ir.tr: Tan you fill this, and what "is
the price?" "Wo .an, and the charge
will be cents." was the repiv.
"Stranire." sai.l the jrentleman. "I
was tld by the physician who wrote
it there was hut one store in the citv
where it could ! correctly filled. I
hate traded with you all xny life: my
lather opened an account at your
store in the early sixties, and I have
never had any trouble in petting my
drills prescriptions here as want
ed. I don't know much about modi
'itie. but mil able to read most pre
scriptions, and could see nothinsr in
tlis one which would tax the ability
or stock of any of the stores iu Port
land. Vou will please fill it."
This little incident fairly illustrates
the attitude which the public takes
when directed to any one dnifirist or
drugstore for their prescriptions.
Over ami over asraiu is this illustrated
at our prescription counter. All of
the wisdom, ski!! and honesty in the
city does not rest in our own. or any
one store.
People who biin-r their prescrip
tions to us do so because they have
confidence iti our dispensing force :
because they ret fair treatment, are
rot overcharged, and always, and
above everythinvr else, receive just
what tluir prescriptions call for the
best that experience and monev can
furnish.
Havinir paid his physician for the
advice jriven. the average man resents
any dictation as to where he shall
spend his money for the prescription.
Any effort to coerce or jiersuade sur
pests some ulterior motive, and as a
rule defeats the very punse somrht.
We have filled many thousands of
prescriptions, and each day probably
more. than any store on iho Coast.
Have ever endeavored and always will
to hold the confidence and e-teetn of
physician and public alike. The rec
ord of near half a century attests the
wisdom of our policy ami the success
of our effort.
