Cha-ies Snrague Smith, president or the
Ptplea Institute, a frightfully learned
man. has hurled the dictionary Into the
campaign. He is speaking nightly for
Hearst, and it is entertaining to watch
earn of the Hearst Old Guard when
Smith breezes along under wraps. For
most of the Leaguers think in words o.
one syllabi;.
Copy Reader Prevents Riot.
Imagine their bewilderment. when
Smith says of their honored l?ader. that.
"1 can vouch for the entirety of his aelf
corsecration." There was almost a riot
the first night he sprang that one. but an
Evening Journal copy reader saved the
day. or rather the n'ght. by getting up
in time and applauding. As he was a dis
trict leader, the crowd recognised him.
But everybody cheered Smith when he
toid the audience that other cities had
"organizations identical In characteris
tics" with Tammany Hall. It certainly
dees sound awful, especially when bel
ieved from a platform.
The dally duel between Ivins and Mira
bean Towns, who practices law and
writ? poetry. Is attracting the attention
of experts. ivina called the saintly Mira
ba.u "a poetic fraud." but for once in
his life he took the count when the
Brooklyn lawyer retorted with these cruel
words:
Ivins Called "Miserable Liar."
"William M. Ivins is a miserable liar,
a malicious, knowing liar, a low down
slanderer, and a slingr of mendacious
ojsctlves." asserted Town, angrily.
"Ho is a citizen without a country, a
lawyer without a client, except when he
mav be hired by some corporation or in
vestigating committee. Ivins Is lexice
sraphical charlatan. He is a kind of
ichneumon, a creature that stifles its prey
with its breath.
Ivins is all these things and worse.
What he said tonight was an absolute
and unmitigated He. It was but the im
aginings of his mlawna-breedlng mind."
Tammany hates Ivins. and a number of
Its orators were Instructed to "pay up
Towns." But they balked at "lexico
graphical charlatan" and "Ichneumon."
In fact the man who tried these pearls of
thought in the Gas House district had to
fly for his life, and the leader there fig
ures that hu remarks have cost the or
ganization fully three hundred votes.
But Tammany likes "miasma-breeding
mind." and it has attained quite a vogue
'.n small meetings. For aimost anybody
can pronounce It, and it has a ferocious
sound.
y
Evening Post Has New One.
The Evening Pot Intimated that Gay
nor came under the heading of "intellect
ual leprechauns," and the Judge denied
it the other day. Then, to show his
knowledge, he explained, that the expres
sion meant "a little man" or a "brownie."
Maybe that la what the Post was getting
at, but life is too short and too serious
to use the time to find out. Any reader
of The Oregonian is hereby given per
mission to Investigate if he likes. Maybe
Gaynor was faking.
A Tammany Assembly candidate went
into a church lecture room the other
night, while Republican Mayoralty Nom
inee Bannard was disporting himself as
n invited guest. As it was Sunday, and
Bannard was not of his political party,
the Tammany man was profoundly
shocked. So he waved his. silk hat in
the air, and said:
Gaynor Given Chance to Pose.
"Woe unto those who have defiled this
House of God. Let all honest Christians
follow me." and marched out. trained by
ten members of his district club who had
followed him there.
It was pretty ."cheap work." eo the av
erage man thought, but it gave Gaynor
a chance to pose. He gave the Tam
many version of the affair, and thea
added. In tearful tones:
"The people laughed at that young man
in the church I read in one paper that
the minister of the church laughed but
there was a Silent One there, first heard
of 2.000 years ago, who was with that
young man.''
But aa one of the TammanV candidate's
friends said, when he heard of the af
fair. "What the hell was Mike Mulally doing
in a Protestant church? I think I will
teU Father Burke."
"Rag-Bag Papers," Gaynor Says.
Hearst says that Gaynor went to him
"hat In hand" and begged for the sup
port of the Independence Lieague. To
which Gaynor. after saying thst Hearst
lies, "waking, sleeping and when he has
nightmares." remarks of his vigorous
opponent:
"Hi reminds me of the passage of
Cicero, when he spoke of the young man
of vast wealth, with an aspect 'Combin
ing the face of the sheep and the eyes
of a hog."
Also Gaynor calls the Hearst publtca-
ions "rag-bag papers." which is some
thing new. And he says that Hearst has
a "yellow streak." and that it is not so
many yeans "since he was walking sleek
and nice in the procession with the Tarn
many Hall men hs now attacks."
Bannard Too Busy to Talk.
Poor old Bannard has been so busy
playing "goat" all by himself, that he
has no time to say unpleasant things
tbout the men on the other tickets. But
even his miserable position does not save
him from the bellowtngs of Gaynor.
The Judge says that his Republican
opponent was nominated at 4 A. M.. after
S1MP1G
a conference In Jack's restaurlnt. which
he describes as a place "frequented by
women v.ho do not gi to bed. and by
mn who are worse than their miserable
female companions." And then i adds:
"A man cannot get tne Mayoralty in a
chop house. I cannot eee how he can
get It without going Into his closet and
bowing his head, even if he does not
bend the knee."
Rival Shows Make Trouble.'
Another comedy of the campaign has
been supplied by the rival "free muse
ums." that of the Hundred and the affair
backed by the Acorns, a Tammany side
show.
The rivals are only two doors apart,
and an cxlra force of police has been
furnished to keep order, or at least to
try and do so. As soon as there Is a
crowd In one place the lecturer usually
remarks:
"Now gentlemen, let us go over and
hear the silly arguments presented by
the disgusting persons who have the au
dacity to claim that they are working
for the best interests of the city."
And of course the crowd always is
willing, and cheerily hoot the outfit of
the opposition. Naturally a free fight
results, and a riot call is sent In. There
is then an intermission of a few minut?s.
at the end of which the war begins all
over again.
Each crowd has a band outside, and
men with megaphones. The general
opinion of unbiased spectators is that
both shows are so bad that it is a won
der anybody could be found to stand for
them for a minute.
Tammany Gets Wrong Steer.
But both the One Hundred and Tam
many Hall are cheerfully paying out
good money for an "attraction" which it
is admitted has :v?t, and will not change
a single vote.
But it gives a few men a chance to

hard times.

AERIAL
World's Greatest Aviators In
viied to Fly During Rose
Carnival.
SOME PROMISE TO COME
Captain Baldwin Believes Balloon
Records Could Be Broken if Big
Gas Bags Were Started
East From This City.
Portland Is to have the biggest flying
machine and balloon show In the world
at next year's Rose Carnival, if the plans
of the general manager of the festival.
George L Hutchin. materialize. Mr.
Hutchln returned last night from an ex
tended trip in the Bast In the interest
of the celebration. Several of the most
noted avlBtors In the United States have

YORK.
signified their willingness to attend, in
case sufficient funds can be assured, and
these will bo accompanied, it is asserted,
by a number of the leading aeroplane men
of Europe.
Manager Hutchin Is flattered with pros
pects for the best cat-nival ever held in
the Northwest. As a representative of
the Rose Festival he was greeted every
where he went with numerous questions
concerning it, which he took aa an indi
cation of the unusual interest prevailing
throughout the Bast.
Joined by Hoyt.
At St. Louis Mr. Hutchin was Joined
by Ralph W. Hoyt. president of the Rose
Carnival, who assisted, the latter in
making tentative plans with the aviators
there concerning the proposed aerial fea
ture of next year's carnival.
Among the more prominent aviators Mr.
Hutchin met In St. Iouls was Captain
T. S. Baldwin, one of the most noted
balloonlsts In the country. Captain Bald
win suggested that as there is always
a prevailing wind on the Pacific Coast
from west to east, a world-championship
balloon race would be an assured suc
cess. He expressed his belief that the
balloons starting from this city would
travel at least 1500 miles, thus breaking
previous records by about 800 miles.
Such a race, he suggested, would be of
international interest, and would draw
the attention of the whole world to Port
land. It was explained by Captain Baldwin,
that many of the leading aviators of
Europe are planning to, go to St. Louis
next year in October to attend an inter
national meet, and that these could . al
most certainly be induced to come early
enough to take part in the proposed ex
hibition at the Rose Carnival.
Post Promises to Help.
Secretary Post, of the New York branch
of the Aerial Club of America, told Mr.
Hutchin that the proposed aerial exhi
bition could be made a wonderful suc
cess, and he indicated that he would not
only be present but would do what he
could to aid the affair, if it is decided
to make the exhibition a feature of the
carnival.
Other aviators who spoke favorably of
fns proposed exhibition In Portland were:
G'.en H. Curtlss, who won the champion
ship at Rheims, France, for the longest
sustained fl'ght: Lincoln Beachy, who ap
peared with success at the Lewis and
Clark Fair In his navigable balloon, and
Tomllnaon. Post and Hanlon, the latter
being a millionaire who has taken up the
work as a pastime.
It Is estimated by Mr. Hutchin that the
cost of getting the aviators to Port
land will be about 2S,000. He will de
termine first the feeling in regard to the
matter among the business men and citi
zens, and if the plan Is supported, nego
tiations will be begun for the exhibition.
"But this must not cause us to lose
sight of the rose feature of the carnival,"
said Mr. Hutchin, last night, "for that Is
the real thing that interests the Eastern
people, who have seen much of the aerial
work. The roses have given us our repu
tation, and these must be depended upon
for he real success of the carnival."
Merchants at St. Louis are planning the
preparation of an excursion to the car
nival, similar to that of the Chicago
merchants to this year's carnival.
As the authorized representative of
Mayor Simon, Mr. Hutchin attended the
banquet given at St. Louis to the Mayors
of a thousand cities. After the Mayor of
Jacksonville, Fla., was introduced as the
Mayor of the most southeastern city, Mr.
Hutchin was called upon to speak in be
half of the "most northwestern" dty
, represented. In his speech he took occa-

HUSBAND DIES WHILE WIFE
SLEEPS OFF "JAG."
Drunken Family Comes to Grief in
City Jail Woman Ignorant
of Spouse's End.
While his wife was sleeping off a
jag in the women"s ward of the City
Prison, George Derby, a buggyworker,
died In the lobby of the jail last night
as Dr. Fred J. Zlegler. city physician,
was dressing: a wound in his head.
Death is ascribed to heart failure,
superinduced by acute alcoholism and
loss of blood from the wound. Derby
lived at 21114 First street.
With his wife and another man and
woman. Derby was arrested yesterday
afternoon on drunk and vagrancy
charges, used as subterfuges in 'clear
ing up a theft. Detectives Carpenter
and Price made the arrests. Dominlck
Donesetto, an Italian,"' was the com
plainant. He alleges while in com
pany of the four yesterday mprntns;
he lost 60.
Ed Hamilton and his wife. Bee Ham
ilton, were the other two arrested. All
deny any knowledge of the theft.
The police believe Derby was hit on
the head by his wife during a quarrel.
The Derby woman was not notified ot
her husband's death for fear the shock
will kill her, as she is also in a criti
cal condition, having an attack of lung
fever as a result of falling In the river
last Sunday when a canoe In which she
and ner husband were rowing capsized.
The Derbys were married . in the
Municipal Court room September 25,
1906, by Judge George J. Cameron, now
District Attorney, then Municipal Judge.
They agreed to marry to escape sen
tence for unlawful cohabitation.
Derby's body was removed to the
morgue. It was announced last night
a Coroner's jury investigation will be
made and, if it Is proven the blow on
his head was made by his .wife, she
may face a murder charge.

MADISOX-STREET , APPROACH
TO BEGIN' TODAY.
Contractors to Turn on. Speed Gear
and Complete Work on
Specified Time.
Construction of the east approach to
the Madison-street bridge will be began
today by the United Engineering & Con
struction Compary, and the placing of
steel for the flra: pier will begin about
December 1. Work on the superstructure
of the bridge has not advanced as rapid
ly as was expected, but it Is the intention
to turn on the high gear from now on
and push the bridge to completion on
contract time. May 1.
The contractor for the superstructure,
Robert Wakefield, ia .handicapped in his
initial work by the necessity of construct
ing the first piers in the center of the
river. It is hoped to have the center
piers completed before the Winter rise
In the river interferes with the work. The
entire superstructure, according to the
terms of the contract, must be completed
by February 1.
A. S. Eldrldge. vice-president of the
United Engineering & Construction Com
pany, stated last night that his company
hopes to have the approaches completed
by December 1. when the work of placing
the steel will begin. The ea.st approach
Is the most expensive feature of the job.
When completed it will be 600 feet in
length.
Some of the steel for the bridge has
already been shipped fr6m Pennsylvania,
and will be on hand before It is needed.
EVIL PLAYS UNDER BAN
Chicago Women Act for Purer
Drama on Stage.
CHICAGO, Oct. 17. (Speciall Fif
teen thousand women, representing the
element that patronizes and keeps
alive theatrical and musical enterprises,
propose to stamp out indecent plays as
far as Chicago Is concerned.
This censorship will be less ostenta
tlsus and many times as powerful as
that wielded by Anthony Comstock In
New York. Instead of appealing to the
higher natures of the managers, the
women will strtke at their pocketbooks.
It is not difficult to predict the nd
of salacious play in Chicago. Mrs.
James patten, wife of the wheat ktng;
Mrs Harrison B. Riley, Mrs. John W.
Meaker, Mrs. U. S. Grant and many
other women prominent in social and
club life, are in the scheme.
Delegates will be sent 'to outside
cities to Investigate plays booked for
this city. Anything suggestive or of
fensive will be reported to the league
and the stamp of dsapproval put upon
it. It is felt that the influence of
15 000 women, comprising th best so
cial and financial interests of the city,
will be so powerful that the theatrical
manaa-ers will not dare defy them.

Pichon Ministry is ready to meet ail
criticism and to play a strong hand in
the principal business, which will con

Faced with a deficit of nearly 300,
000.000 frances, the new Finance Min
ister. M. Cochrey will meet it
with fresh taxes. There will be no
doubtful expedients. Financial Paris is
complacent on this score. But there is
a fly in the ointment. In his speech at
Hericourt, M. Renoult, Under-Secretary
of Finance, made an announcement not
at all palatable to the Bourse. He de
clared that the new taxation was not

tax bill of M. Caillaux, Finance Minis

Cabinet Backs Old Bill. f
Renoult referred to the Caillaux bill
as "Improvable as to certain accessory
provisions, but unimprovable in its con
ception, and unchangeable in its essen
tial principles." This means that the
Cabinet will sustain the measure de
bated for 18 months before the fall of
Clemenceau, and. according to French
constitutional procedure, the bill will
not be dropped even when the present
legislative period ends.

is a curious situation.
Since the year 1901 death duties
have been' considerably augmented,
and are progressive in the dou
ble sense that Miey increase with
the amount inherited and with the re
moteness of the relationship between
the testator and the beneficiary. Bene
ficiaries in the direct line of succession
at present pay in death duties a pro
portion which ranges from 1 per cent
in the case of inheritances not ex
ceeding $400 In value -to 5 per cent in
the case of inheritances exceeding in
value $1. 000, 000.
To Raise Old Scales.
A wife inheriting from a husband
or a husband inheriting from a wife
pays a duty which ranges from 3 3-4
per cent to 9 per cent, according to the
amount Inherited, and the incidence of
the dutv increased until, in the case of
relations beyond the sixth degree, or
of unrelated beneficiaries, the tax
ranges from 15 per cent In the case of
inheritances valued at $400 or under to
20 1-2 per cent in the case of estates
valued at over $10,000,000. M. Cochery
now proposes to raise the scale of all
death duties leviable on estates above
the value of 1400. .
The minimum augmentation wili be
in the duty on estates the value of
which is between $2000 and $10,000,
ana which are inherited in the direct
line of succession. Here the Increases
will be 1-2 per cent. The maximum
augmentation will be in the duty on
estates exceeding $10,000,000 in value
and inherited by persons who are not
related to the deceased or are relatives
beyond the sixth degree. Here the in
crease will be 5 1-2 per cent, .or from

Minister estimates that his proposed

Willimantic, Conn. "For five years
I suffered untold agvmy from female
troubles, causing backache, irregulari
ties, dizziness and nervous prostra
tion. It was impossible for me to ,
wait upstairs
without stopping
on the way. I
tried three differ
ent doctors and
each told me some-
1 f i thing different. I
received no benefit
from any of them,
but seemed to suf
fer more. The last
doctor said noth
ing would restoro
my health. I began
taking Lydia L. i'mkham's Vegetable
Compound to see wnai 11 wouia co,
and I am restored to my natural
health." Mrs. Etta Dosotas, Box
