Bourn" Equivocal Position Does
Not Deter President From Recog
nizing Men Who Helped Him
to Secure Nomination.
Elmer B. Colwell, successor to C. J.
Reed as United States Marshal, and his
friend. Dr. Henry Waldo Coe, yesterday
received congratulations on the success
of the regular Republican organization
in securing; the appointment.
Dr. Coe Insists that the compliment
was Intended in recognition of the good
work of the Oregon delegation to the
Chicago National convention, which nom
inated President Taft, and the later ef
forts of Oregonlans in behalf of Re
publican success down- the line.
"The attitude of the President toward
Oregon appointments must be a very try
ing and delicate one," said Dr. Coe,
"and Republicans of all shades should
sympathize with the President, whether
Individual appointments have always
pleased them or not.
'The President is a great, big-hearted
fellow, appreciative, far-seeing and tact
ful, but matters In Oregon are so badly
mixed that he cannot fall to be dis
turbed over the situation. He Is alive to
his obligations to the delegation and or
ganization here which helped nominate
him and which did service In financing
and carrying on its own work in the
interest of the Republican ticket. This
Is shown by the reinstatement of Colonel
Dunne as Collector and the present ap
pointment of Colwell, urged by the regu
lar organisation, and made In the fur
therance of a square deal all around.
"However, Oregon, in addition to send
ing a delegation to Chicago for Mr. Taft,
also sent as Senator to Washington Mr.
Bourne. Usage there requires that the
President shall heed the suggestions of
the Senators from a state, where such
Senator are working In harmnoy with
the Administration.
"Senator Bourne and the reguar or
ganization in Oregon are at outs. The
President is therefore between two fires.
"To complicate matters further. Sen
ator Bourne's regularity with his own
faction in Oregon seems to depend some
what upon his Irregularity with the Ad
ministration at Washington. This weak
ens him in Washington, where he has be
come an unknown quantity. Both regu
lars and Insurgents are uncertain as to
his real position.
"The President and not the Senator
makes the appointments. It looks to me
ss though some kind of a compromise
might be effected between the President
and the Senator as to Oregon matters
or an open rupture will ensue. The Presi
dent shows that he cannot be deterred
from dealing fairly with all factions hers.
Bourne's well known attitude of all or
nothing Is shown by his opposition to
Dunne and Colwell, although In fairness
the regular organization must be rec
ognized as possessing undoubted rights
to a portion of the Federal patronage.
"The recent appointments here of
Bourne men show the President's desire
for fairness to all factions. Certainly
if the President cannot get an occasional
appointment confirmed for the regular
organization which helped nominate him
from Oregon, It would seem to me self
manifest that he will make no appoint
ments further for the Senator and that
en open breach ; must inevitably ensue.
In such case the President can insist upon
confirmations and he would surely get
them, as he does for Wisconsin and
elsewhere, over the protest of the local
Senators, who are opposing the President.
"In the meantime, Mr. Colwell holds
the office and the President Is bis
friend."
REED IS IN JOCULAR. MOOD
' Deposed Marshal Seriously Think
ing or Becoming Capitalist.
United States Marshal C. J. Reed had
very little to say yesterday concerning
the naming of Elmer B. Colwell as his
successor. In response to a question as
to what line of vocation would engage
his attention after his retirement from
office, the Marshal said:
"I think that the greatest Inducements
for a young man are to be found among
the capitalists, and I am seriously think
ing of taking up that line of work. The
results seem to correspond with my ideas
of the amount of labor which should be
expended In the pursuit of a living.
"If It is true that Heney Is going to
abandon the land fraud prosecutions be
cause of my departure from the office
of United States Marshal, then It is pos
sible that Williamson, Hermann, Jones
and a few more of the boys' may decide
to pension me. In that case, I would not
have to work."
Marshal Reed announced that ha would
only require a few days In which to ar
range the affairs of his office In. order
to turn them over to Mr. Colwell. Five
days would suffice to complete the opera
tion. The commission signed by the Presi
dent and naming Mr. Colwell to succeed
Mr. Reed will be sent to the judges of
the United States Court. Then Colwell
will furnish them a bond in such sum
as the Department of Justice shall name,
and after receiving the approval of the
court, the bond will be forwarded to
Washington for the scrutiny of the Sec
retary. Should it receive the approval
of that ofnoer, a sum of money suffi
cient for the payment of court accounts
will be forwarded to Mr. Colwell and ha
will be prepared to do business.
Marshal Reed Is in possession of all the
funds now allowed to the Oregon court,
and Is required to close out the account
with his term.
Following the preliminaries as to the
receipt of the commission, the submis
sion of the bond and its approval, Mr.
Colwell will call upon the present in
cumbent and arrange a satisfactory date
for receiving the office. Colwell will be
required to receipt for all of the papers,
furniture and books in the possession of
Reed.

IJFGSAVER WORKED BY BtOTOHJWAH BY USB OF AIRBRAKES.
In accordance with a resolution recently adopted by the City Coun
cil, the American Automatlo Fender Company's air-controlled street
car fender, shown above, is now being operated on the streets of Port
land. It Is attached to car No. 646, and is this week on the Washington-street
run. The fender is connected with the main air reservoir
of the car, and is operated by the mtorman with the same lever with
which he handles the brakes. The brakes, however, can be operated
Independently of the fender.
In emergencies the fender works automatically, contact with an ob
ject on the track throwing it instantly to the rail and at the same
time setting the emergency brakes on the car. It has been success
fully demonstrated in Portland by the inventor and patentee, F. A.
Nelson, of Minneapolis, who, with A. B. Stickney, ex-presldent of the
Chicago Great Western Railway Company, and C. S. Mellen, ex-presldent
of the Northern Pacific Railway Company, own and control it.
During the past two years they have spent more than $33,000 in per
fecting the device, which is now in use in Brooklyn, New Yor'f. Cleve
land, Ohio, and other cities in the East. Portland is th first city in
the West to put it in practical operation.
NEW ISSUES ARISE
Woodmen Session Promises to
Be Important.
HEAD OFFICIALS DIFFER
Chief Boak Insists All Conventions
of Paeiifc Jurisdiction Should
Be Held In Denver Cheaper
Insurance Is Asked.
Foremost issues in the meeting of the
head camp, Woodmen of the World of
the Pacific Jurisdiction, which convenes
n Portland next Monday, will be the
recommendation that all such sessions
be held in Denver, Colo., after this
year. The innovation will be contained
in the report of the chief officer of the
order, I. I. Boak. Mr. Boak Is reported
to be Impressed with the notion that
the recommendation will carry unani
mously. Other officers of the head
camp are said to entertain other opin
ions. Another feature of the legislation
which will be considered at the meet
ing of 300 or more delegates will re
late to the abandonment of the "monu
ment clause" of the constitution of the
Woodmen. It will be pointed out that
$100 monuments have been erected for
the past 10 years from' the benefit fund,
and that no increment has come to that
fund to replace the large expenditure.
The chief of the Woodmen is of the
opinion that a special fund should be
created to bear that expense.
Another popular recommendation is
said to concern a revision of the sched
ule of policies now issued by the fra
ternity. They are classified in amounts
of $1000, $2000 and $3040, and Mr. Boak
will take a stand for adding a $500
class of Insurance to the classifica
tions. Membership Ban May Be Lifted.
In addition to the occupations which
are now accepted as satisfactory, it will
be recommended that firemen in cities
of less than 10.000 population be made
eligible for the benefits of the order.
Another recommendation which will
probably pass is said to pertain to ex
tending the honors of the floor of the
head camp to the general attorney of
the order. Heretofore the head physi
cian has been allowed to participate In
the deliberatoina- of the body, but the
lawyers have been barred.
One of the most popular recommen
dations emanating from the head con
sul Is said to be that pertaining to the
organization of juvenile camps. It is
his purpose to form organizations of
boys from 13 to 18 years of age and
make their meetings purely social. "Our
hope of existence as an association is
in the boys." announced Mr. Boak.
The present session of the head
camp of the Pacific jurisdiction was
Intended to meet here during the same
week selected by the Hibernians, but
was postponed by order of Head Con
sul Boak in order that a conflict of
dates might be avoided. The Wood
men now have 106.000 members in this
Jurisdiction, carrying an Insurance of
$2,260,000. There la a surplus of ap
proximately $4,000,000. which is invest
ed in municipal securities and which
is averaging Interest earnings of 4.SS
per cent. Between $300,000 and $400,
000 of th surplus is invested In Ore
gon. Reports to Bo Examined.
Beginning Wednesday, the committee
of the Woodmen who are charged with
an examination of the reports of offi
cers, will meet at headquarters at the
Oregon Hotel. The comm'ttee which
will pass on rulings of the head consul
is composed of T. P. Revelle, of Se

ver. MOVING PICTURE EXHIBITS
Writer Says Fight Films Will Create
Adverse Sentiment.
PORTLAND. July 8. (To the Edi
itor.) The number of successful moving-picture
shows in operation in Port
land, and in every busy center, is evi
dence that they are in demand an"u pop
ular. Since that memorable fight In Reno
on July 4, between Jeffries and John
son, we have heard of the opposition of
moving-pictures that were there to tell
the story as no pen can, of the blood
shed, of the science if any, of tha su
periority of one man over another, of
the charm that drew thousands to
Reno, and millions to read the bulle
tins as the rounds were reported.
Most of the moving-pictures that are
exhibited are made up out of whole
cloth, mere fiction, presenting the fin
ished work of the actor, as he endeav
ors to portray his mental picture of a
certain story or stories. Nothing very
wrong about that, is there? It seems
very evident that the movlng-ploture
camera will tell the story of that con
test at Reno, better and more truth
fully than any Bet of actors could, and
the end will be as true to life as the
beginning. What lesson one will be
able to draw from such a set of pic
tures, I am not preprared to say, but
those good people -who have decried the
exhibition of such true to life pictures,
will find that a public sentiment against
such exhibitions of pugilistic science
will be created and possible by no
other means.
The power of suggestion is known
to all, and if the makers of moving
pictures would remember that those
pictures will be Indelibly photographed
on the minds of millions of little chil
dren, who take everything as gospel
truth, they would refrain from exhibit
ing pictures that would make the lit
tle ones afraid of even their shadows
in their own homes, and it remains for
some enterprising men, church or other
organization, to make moving-pictures
specially for children, where objection
able features might be eliminated.
With the churches organized as they
are in every town and hamlet .with
brains and the money too, what fields
of practical education and far-reaching
usefullness lies at church doors!

was willing to return to Mrs. Bruce part
of the $3500 of which he la alleged to
have defrauded her, but not all of it.
The crime for which Houtchens was ar
rested is alleged to have been committed
over five years ago, but he has been out
of the courfs jurisdiction all that time.
Mrs. Bruce charges that he sold a piece
of property for her and retained $1000
which he secured for her. Later, she
says, he negotiated a loan and secured
$2500 from her. but failed to turn It over
to the borrower: He then married her,
though she was 60 and he but 35 years
of age. Immediately after the marriage,
which took place at Albany, he deserted
her, she says. Mrs. Bruce maintains her
self by doing domestic work. Houtchens
will be given a preliminary hearing; in

PRISONER FEARS WOMAN
Alleged Burglar Shrinks FVom One

' Joe ' Sanchez. Mexican and alleged
burglar, shrank timidly as he emerged
from the box la Police Court yesterday
morning: and saw sitting near the door
Mrs. M. Delahunty, who on Saturday
administered two stinging blows to his
face, in the corridor of the jail. Sanchez
sidled along the wall as tar as possible
from his former assailant, and repeat
ed the performance when he was led
back to his cell. The little woman
who had given him the chastisement
glowered fiercely at the Mexican, but
made no attempt to repeat her attack.
"I got in two good ones Saturday," she
said, "and I guess that will do."
Sanchez Is accused of entering the
home of Mrs. Farrell. Mrs. Delahunty's
mother, stealing some jewelry and
frightening the aged woman severely.
"When Mrs. Delahunty went to Identify
the man last Saturday, her wrath
burned and she struck him with both
