ELMER D.G0LWELL
TOSUGCEED REED
Taft Promises to Name Local
Republican as United States
Marsha!.
DR. H. W. COE HAS LETTER
Francis J. Heney, Friend of Present
Incumbent, Still Waging Fight
to Hold Him In Office.
Colwell Will Accept.
Elmer B. Colwell, of Portland, -will
be appointed to succeed C. J. Reed as
United States Marshal for the district
of Oregon. The information Is con
tained in a letter to Dr. Henry Waldo
Coe, bearing- the signature of William
Howard Taft, President of the United
States.
As a sequel to the information be
coming public Mr. Colwell has been
tendered the congratulations of his
friends, but has consistently refused to
accept felicitations. "Barkis Is wlllin' "
but until the announcement comes from
the White House the successful appli
cant for the position neither confirms
or denies the impeachment.
The present incumbent, C. J. Reed,
will arrive in the city today, and rumor
has- it that his political sponsor, Francis
J. Heney, will either be on the same
train, or will closely follow Mr. Reed.
Mr. Colwell is now connected with
the irrigation projects of Dr. Coe at
Stanfield, Or., and for the last week
both of the gentlemen have been- In
tTmatllla County looking after the in
terests of land colonization. Prior to
the departure, Dr. Coe exhibited the let
ter to friends In Portland, and feels
Becnre in the promise from the Presi
dent. Whether the appointment will
be made during the vacation of Con
gress, or whether President Taft pro
poses to wait until after December next
before namlag the next Marshal of this
district Is not made clear.
Colwell a "Regular" Republican.
Elmer Colwell first became prominent
In Portland and Oregon politics in 1902,
when he was serving as president of
the Sixth Ward Republican Club, and
later In that year he was elected a
member of the lower house of the Gen
eral Assembly of Oregon. In 1905 Mr.
Colwell was one of those Instrumental
In the calling of a primary election for
members of a City Central Committee
for Portland Republicans, and at the
first meeting of the committee was se
lected to serve as secretary. He has
since been twice defeated as a candi
date for the nomination for Senator
Trom the Portland district.
Mr. Colwell had as his friend Dr.
Henry Waldo Coe, who was the Oregon
treasurer of the campaign committee of
190S?-the year that President Taft was
elected, and In addition. Dr. Coe en
joys the personal friendship of Theo
dore Roosevelt.
Heney Obtained Reed Appointment.
It is well known that the appoint
ment of Mr. Reed was obtained by
Francis J. .Heney, who was sent to Ore
gon to. investigate the alleged land
frauds and who demanded the Marshal
ship as one of the considerations of
undertaking that duty. The term of
office of Mr. Reed expired In March, and
eoon afterward Mr. Heney went. East.
It is believed by those who know the
situation that Heney did everything in
his power to have Mr.'Reed reappointed.
Heney has been frequently quoted as
having said that he would abandon the
land fraud prosecutions in this state
unless Reed was retained as Marshal
and In charge of the Juries. It has
been said that Heney planned to visit
Colonel Roosevelt in Italy in hopes of
securing the interference of the ex
President on behalf of Reed.
In May Mr. Reed himself went East
to attend the graduation exercises at
Harvard, but immediately following
that event, the Marshal was reported
in Washington and New York.
If Heney is coming West at this time
It is believed that he intends to ask
the United States Court immediately to
set the Blnger Herman and J. N. Wil
liamson cases for trial, so that he may
dispose of them before Reed surrenders
his office.

Parallel Drawn Between Ancient
1
Rome and Republican Oregon. v
PORTLAND. July 12. (To the Editor.)
Clergymen and college graduate are
commonly wont to refer to the Roman
Empire as having rotted ir.oraily. so that
it became an easy prey to the barbarians
of the North. This, however, is but a
part of the truth.
Rome sank under the power of bar
barian hordes because it had already
ceased to be Roman. As the empire ex
tended, it became the meeting place of
all races, till the mass of the inhabitants
had no concern about the h'story and
traditions of the city and empire, nor of
the men who had made Rome great.
Gauls, Spaniards, Dacians, Thracians,
Syrians and Africans an unasimilated,
mongrel mass filled the army and
crowded the City of Rome, au devoid
in the main of what we term patriotism.
Even the Emperor Trojan was a rank
Spaniard. The real weakness, therefore,
of the Roman Empire was the absence of
competent leadership and com.-non pa
triotism among the masses: a lossori we,
as a Nation, and especially here In Ore
gon, in these days of political quackery
might well heed. C. E. CLINE.

Colonization Manager to Arrange for
Putting Immigration Offices
In Portland.
John E. Burchard. manager for., the
$12,000,000 Oregon & Western Clonization
Company, which Is populating Central
Oregon, returned yesterday from a visit
of Inspection to the lajids of the com
pany in the vicinity of Albany, and de
parted for St. Paul In the evening. Upon
nis arrival at the Minnesota headquar
ters of the big development concern Mr.
Burchard will complete arrangements to
open Portland offices for the handling
of immigration to Oregon, as well . as
branch offices at Vale, Shanlko, Prine
ville and such other points in the terri
tory of the Willamette Valley and Cas
cade wagon road grant as may be
deemed advisable. "
"Closer inspection of the lands In the
vicinity of Albany and along the West
slope of the Cascades only convinces me
of the possibilities of the Willamette
Valley," announced Mr. Burchard.
There is room enough for comfortable
homes among the lands out there to sup
port the population of France, and with
the intensive methods of farming which
are coming into use it will soon be am
plre within Itself.
This statement should not be taken
to mean that our company will reserve
our holdings for sale in small tracts only.
It is only my opinion of the future of
tnat district."
Burchard declined to state the nur
pose of his visit to Albany to be other
than an Inspection. It was thought prob
able that arrangements were being con
summated for the sale of certain tracts
of timber along the foothills, which are
considered Ideal for fruit growing. From
the fact that Albany real estate dealers
have been calling on Mr. Burchard at
the hotel, it is probable that he is in
tending to make a selection of an agent
to represent his company in the Valley.

left last night for Ontario, where he will
Join President Davidson and perhaps
take up plans for the Immediate disposal
of certain holding's which have been ap-
pnea ror.
Three appraising parties are now in the
field, placing a valuation on the 800,000
acres held by the company. The general
manager is positive they will be in posi
tion to locate many thousands of settlers
during the present season.
HARMON'S CHANCE GOOD
OHIO REPUBLICAN THINKS DEM
OCRAT WILL WIN.
Taft Popular, but Insurgency Has
Foothold and Members of Con
gress Are Embarrassed.
"Although I am a Republican and
will not vote for him, I believe Judson
Harmon will be re-elected Governor of
Ohio," Is the way Samuel Butler, of
Columbus, O., who is staying at the
Oregon Hotel, sizes up the political sit
uation in his home state.
"Harmon is recognized as a very able
man," continued Mr. Butler, "and he
made himself popular by his investiga
tions of state offices and by unearth
ing graft. It has been generally con
sidered that he leaned toward the
liquor interests, which have taken an
active part in Ohio politics, but his at
titude in removing the Mayor of New
ark, following the lynching of an anti
saloon detective, indicates that he is
not tied to them. He Is considered fair
in all his dealings, he is strictly busi
ness tij everything and any candidate
against" him will have an uphill fight."
Asked if James R. Garfield, who
opened the insurgency campaign in
Ohio, will be an Influential factor in
politics, Mr. Butler said:
"Garfield Is popular because of his
father. He will have some influence
In the state, but whether he Is strong
enough to land Ohio in the insurgent
column remains to be seen. Politics
are peculiar in Ohio, and conditions
were never more uncertain than now.
President Taft is very popular, because
Ohio is his native state. There is an
element of insurgency in the state that
places the Ohio Senators and represen
tatives in an embarrassing position.
They are wabbling, riot knowing which
side to, take. In the northwest' part of
the state the "standpatters" have re
tained their hold, but the rest of the
state Is uncertain.
"It :would seem that Garfield's ad
dress,' Btartlng a campaign of Insur
gency In the state, will split the party
wide open and the re-election of Har
mon is more than ever 'assured. The
"standpatters" will not vote for Har
mon, nor 'will they support Garfield,
while the Democrats will go down the
line to the man for Harmon. So there
you are."

ITER FAMINE IS
TO BE RELIEVED
City Officials Plan to Remedy
Conditions in Sellwood and
Other Suburbs.
PRIVATE PLANTS GRILLED
Patrons Say They Pay $2 a Month
and Get Wretched Service Ac
tion of George W. Brown Is
Surprise to Board Members, i
Immediate relief for residents of the,
Sellwood district by the enforcement of
an alternate day irrigation arrangement
and for the people of Woodstock, Ivanhoe
and Woodmere through connection of the
Brown and the Fleck private systems
with the Bull Run pipes is the net result
of yesterday afternoon's cession of the
Water Board.
One of the most startling discoveries,
as it developed at the meeting. is the
fact that George W. Brown has not used
one drop of Bull Run water this year,
but that he has been consuming what
rightfully belongs to Ivanhoe and Wood
stock .patrons of the Fleck system, who
pay 2 a month for it and get little or
none. . .
Mr. Brown, when pressed hard by ' his
patrons last year, asked the Water Board
to supply his system with Bull Run,
saying he would sell It to his patrons
through his private system. Otherwise,
he had an insufficient supply. The
members of the Board granted his re
quest, simply charging him meter rates.
Everyone thought there would be an end
to the water scarcity in that district, but
it now transpires that Brown is not using
any Bull Run, but is getting water from
Fleck's private system at cheaper rates.
People Can't Bathe.
Meanwhile Fleck's patrons can't bathe,
irrigate their lawns or get a drink of
water except at rare intervals, although
they are charged J2 a month and are
forced to pay it. Fleck has. defied them
to do anything, according to statements
made by Miss Kate Parker, George "A.
Carsley and others, who were present at
the Water Board meeting yesterday af
ternoon with a mighty protest.
The result is going to be one of two
things either there will be a connection
between the Brown and Fleck systems,,
with Bull Run water used liberally, for
the patrons of both companies, or the
Water Board will lay huge mains through
the teritory of both concerns and put
them out of business.
This course was decided upon by Mayor
Simon and Messrs. T. B. Wilcox, J. C.
Alnsworth and W. B. Jtfackay, members
of the Board, and the subject was re
ferred to Messrs. Alnsworth and Mackay.
They will hold a meeting today with
Brown and Fleck, In an effort to- secure
amicable arrangement with them, to the
end that immediate relief may be given
the patrons. -
Mayor Is Surprised.-
It was a great surprise to Mayor Simon
I and members of the Board when they
discovered that George W. Brown, owner
of the Woodmere Water Company, has
not used a drop of Bull Run water this
year, and they made it known In no un
certain terms by laying their plans to
Insure relief. They had supposed until
then that Brown was furnishing his cus
tomers with a liberal supply of Bull Run,
but it was stated by Superintendent
Dodge that he has not used any of the
city's supply this year. ,
Miss Parker, Mr. Carsley and others
from the districts affected declared in
positive terms that neither Brown nor
Fleck were giving their patrons much
water for the rates charged, and Mr.
Wilcox told the delegation that he would
not pay for anything he did not get, and
advised them to do the same.
"We are more, than willing to pay for
water," declared Miss Parker. "I per
sonally am willing to pay double the
amount my essessmerft may be, If only I
can get water. We can't get along
without it much longer."
i " Fleck Is Grilled.
Miss Parker and the others grilled
Fleck in unmeasured terms, charging
him with defying them in their efforts to
get water, and saying that he has said he
wants the city to condemn his plant and
take it over at great profit to him.
"But we feel that, if it is condemned,"
said Mr. Carsley, "it should be handed
back to him as scrap and nothing paid
for It, for it is worth nothing."
Mayor Simon assured the delegation
that he and the members of the Board
were anxious to relieve the situation,
and after the members left the Mayor
and Commissioners took up the means
of granting relief, as stated."
The resolution that was adopted by the
Sellwood people was read and the Board
at once passed a resolution ordering that
the division be made where the new main
is installed, and that irrigation be al
lowed on either side on alternate days
only. This, It U said, will give relief,
as there is sufficient water now with
this new rule enforced. The Council
will today pass the necessary routine
resolution starting the large reinforcing
main, with the route included.
Kenilworth. Is Complaining.
The people of Kenilworth will hold a
mass meeting next Monday night to con
sider the situation. In Waverly-Rich-mr.nd
there Is shortage of water and the
upper stories of all buildings are report
ed without water for any purpose.
Ben Riesland, president of the Seventh
Ward League and member of the ater
committee from the league, has 'called
a meeting of tire members of the water
committee for next Tuesday night In his
office in the Failing building to adopt
plans for action. Mr. Rlesland said:
"Wedo not approve the temporary ex
pedient of laying a reinforcing main to
connect with the Sellwood main. We
want a complete system. Woodstock
and Ivanhoe, now supplied with water
from the Woodstock plant, want Bull
Run water and are entitled to it. They
are Inside the city limits. Ivanhoe has
scarcely any water, for the Woodstock
plant is not sufficient. We have the
plans "of a system that will supply the
district, which we worked out some time
ago. We shall Insist on a system that
will cover the entire district and will op
pose anything less than this."
Sellwood Conditions Rivaled.
E. Moldendauer, member of the water
committee of the Seventh Ward League,
dlscusssed the water situation In Kenil
worth yesterday, remarking:
Conditions In Kenilworth Addition and
in the surroundings are Just as bad as in
Sellwood. There Is wide and deep In
dignation expressed by hundreds of peo
ple and general dlsguset over the fail
ure of the city to provide adequate water
facilities. We can't get water for our
lawns nor for baths ifi Kenilworth. Mon
day evening I wanted water for my horse
and opened the faucet to let the water
run-at 5:15 P. M.. and at 6:30 I had a
bucket full of water, more than an hour
being taken to nil up that bucket for my.
horse. Do you wonder that the people
of Keilworth are indignant over the treat
ment they, are receiving?"
L. El Rice, member of the Seventh
Ward League water committee, and
chairman of the charter amendment com
mittee; yesterday declared that nothing
short of a general reinforcing system of
water mains will answer the demands of
the South East Side.
It appears there are other sections on
the East Side where water Is short. Otto
Kleeman, who owns three housas on East
Couch street, near East Twenty-eighth
street, complains that he has paid for
sprlnking for all three houses for the
season, .and yet can get no water. He
says that he will hold the 'city responsi
ble for failure to fulfill Its part of the
contract to supply water for which he
has paid, and make a test case.
JURY DISCUSSES TAXATION
Assessor, . ex-Assessor and Timber
Owners Are Questioned.
MONTESANO, Wash., July 12. (Spe
cial.) H. H. Carter, County Assessor;
F. R. Archer, ex-County Assessor, and
A. P. Stockwell, mllllonalrer timber
owner and logger of Aberdeen, were
the three important witnesses before
the grand Jury today. Their testimony
went over the matter of ' taxation of
timber and corporation property in the
county. '
The Jury interrogated the men on the
matter of valuations on timber, in this
way trying to find out whether a fair
and equitable assessment had been
placed on timber throughout the county
regardless . of the low value. It was
learned that some timber, regardless of
Its location, was assessed higher than
other timber, but on a whole the valua
tion placed was much too low.
W. Fowler, a real estate man of Seat
tle, appeared .before the Jury. After he
was dismissed the Jury spent an hour
deliberating, and then recalled F. R.
Archer.
Juror Robert Ewart, who was taken
ill Saturday, being overcome by the
heat, was not In attendance. Fred
Spaulding, juror, of Satsop, today ap
pealed to Judge Irwin to be excused,
stating that he was suffering from
heart trouble, and the strain was too
much for him. Judge Irwin Is reported
to have said that should his condition
grow worse he would allow him to go
home, i
REGISTRATION NOW "11,800
Naturalized Citizens Who Forget
Papers Trouble Clerks.
Naturalized citizens try the patience of
the registration clerks at the Courthouse
these days. Not a day passes that one or
more -of them does not apply to register
without having brought with him his
naturalization papers. Without these the
law provides he cannot register.
Yesterday morning a man appeared who
said he had taken out his citizenship in
San Francisco, and that he had lost his
papers and could not secure duplicates
because the records of the Superior Court
of San Francisco were all destroyed in
the fire of April, 1905. He was not al
lowed to register, as the California Leg
islature made provision for just such per
sons by passing a law through which they
can secure copies of their papers by mak
ing affidavit In the San Francisco Su
perior Court.
The only Populist who has registered
thl3 year signed the books yesterday.
He. lives at 825 Haight street, and gave
his name as Rev. Ira Wakefield. He is 79
years old and Is a native of Massa
chusetts. The total registration now stands at
11,800, there being 9155 Republicans, 1604
Democrats and 1041 miscellaneous. On
the same day in 1908, 9512 had registered.
7317 being Republicans, 1701 Democrats
and 494 miscellaneous. '
THREE , CHILDREN LOST
Youngsters Stray From Plaza Block

Two little girls and a small boy were
wandering somewhere about the city
yesterday afternoon while a frantic
woman, the mother of one of them, made
urgent appeals to the police and. all
others who fell in her way to aid her
in finding them. She said that she was
Mrs. Bones, of McMinnville.
She came to the city with the children
yesterday and they ate their lunch at
the Plaza. She then left them for a few
minutes, giving strict instructions that
they should' not stir from their place.
When she returned they had wandered
away, and a search of the vicinity failed
to discover them. The two girls are

CHAMBER AIDS MOVEMENT,
Committee to Be Appointed to Con
fer With Premier T.anrler Xavl-
gable Channel From Robson,
B. C, to Portland, Is Plan.
Action taken by the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday at the weekly meeting
of the board of governors leads to the
belief that the deepening of the channel
in the Columbia River, so that it will be
navigable from Portland to Robson,
B. C, 13 a matter of the near future.
The Canadian government invfted the
commercial bodies of Portland to take
up- the matter. At the meeting yester
day a resolution was adopted request
ing President Knapp to appoint a com
mittee to meet with Sir Wilfred Laurier,
Premier, and members of the Canadian
Cabinet at Nelson, B. C, September 1. At
that meeting the Portland men and the
Canadians will resolve themselves into
a committee of the whole to discuss the
matter.
"If the Canadian government will at
tend to the channel from the Interna
tional boundary," said Secretary Giltner
yesterday, "it should be easy for Port
land to see to the rest.
"The rlvar is i now navigable as far as
Priest Rapids, Including the operation of
the boat railway at Celilo. From Priest
Rapids to Wenatchee some work is re
quired, but from Wenatchee to Okanogan
the river is practically -in shape.
"Portland should realize this as a great
opportunity. We want men of influence
on this committee. To Portland the bene
fit of the open river- will be incalculable.
In place of having products of British
Columbia go east by way of Vancouver,
they will come directly to Portland. It
is impossible to overestimate what this
means. It Is Portland's chance, but Port
land must be wide-awake enough to
realize it."
The board resolved that the closing of
the draws for a short time In the even
ing be taken up with the Oregon repre
sentatives at Washington.
A resolution was passed to the effect
that the Chamber of Commerce collabor
ate with the American Embassy Associa-1
tion. The association ia working for the
improvement of the offices and residences
of American Ambassadors abroad.
The Chamber decided not to advocate
any Apple day for Oregon, which, it has
been suggested, should be celebrated like
Raisin day in California. The reason for
opposing Apple day in Oregon was that
the apple is grown everywhere, while
practically the entire raisin crop In the
United States comes from California and
from a radius of 50 miles of one town
in that state.
The cover for the new book on Oregon
was enthusiastically received. The book
again emphasizes the slogan: "Oregon
the Land of Opportunity." The cover is
in old-fashioned paper board, with rough
edges and is printed In cream. A young
woman, bearing a basket of Oregon
fruits, is looking toward the state seal
of Oregon, while at-her feet lie various
products for which the state is famous.

charges are reasonable -more so than

work is expensive at any price. You

have to have it in the end, if you want
service, comfort and beauty. i
