RICH FRIENDS GIVEN MORE Record Belies Senates, Posing as People's Friend. STATE'S NEEDS UNHEEDED Republican omlnf for GflTfmor Sj Bnurnr AVa Irglng Har mon; When STkln;" Votes Four Years Ago. T Jnnmthon Bourne. Jr.: 4n the Fort lr.l evenln- papers of September JO there appeared an Interview, credited to you. la which you Indulged 13 a great many rnralltln and meaningless platitude. In Ihla phraseolory you presume to Issue a command to the people of Oregon to vote asalnst many candidates In the com In elation nominated by the recent pri mary. Slnre your election to the United State! Senate you have not taken sufficient in terest tn the State of Ore iron to spend any considerable, amount of your time here. Tou have devoted your time and such enterprise and energy as you pos sess t pastimes and associations more agreeable to ou while you were able to flr.d In other parts of this and foreign countries. You have visited this state hut twice during the last four years, and then devoted very little time to ascer taining the wishes of the people of Ore gon, or their needs or requirements: but you have devoted your time to Issuing mandates to the people of this state di recting them how they should vote. Tou claim to be the friend of the people of Oregon. I presume you Imagine that "by repeatedly telling the people you are their friend, someone will believe you. Fortu nately, however, some of your sins of commission and omission are matters of public record, which you are obliged to face and cannot avoid, excuse or der.y. Bourne Works With Aldrlcli. It Is a matter of public record that you. -at the special session of Congress In 1J. In a harangue, by courtesy termed a speech, delivered by you. when the tariff bill wa under consideration, re ferred to that other "friend" of the peo ple. Senator Aldrich.' as an authority upon tariff lrg'slatton. IMs a well-known fact that during your term In the Senate you have labored In complete harmony with Senator Aldrich. In this so-called speech you stated that you knew nothing of the tariff, but that your, particular friend, fa miliar and boon companion. Senator Ald-rl.-h. was a master of rates and that you would he content to abide by his de cisions. You voted against Senator BrlstoWs proposed amendment, which would have taken the "Joker" out ot the sugar schedule. By this vote $60,000. 000 a year Is wrung from the people of this country and given to the sugar trust. You further outraged the peo ple of Oregon and of this country on this occasion by assisting In placlug a duty of IS per cent ad valorem on Iron ore. Of course you knew the stel trust owned the Iron ore In the United Ststes and that by your vote you were tklng thl money fmra the people of tli's country ar.d from your own constitu ents end gAlr.s It to the many million aires wi-.o control this, the greatest trust In the world. No doubt you expect tlie householder, when he purchase a cook stove and "rays this unnecessary tribute to your collcu to be tJllnded to your relet of duty by the platitudes ycu Indulge In concerning myself and the other candidates who are not favored wb your support, or with the acquaint ances and associations) of your million aire chums and friends who are the beneftcUriee of your mtarcpreser.tation of this state In the Senate. Duty on Woolens; Silk. Free. Tou voted to admit to this country raw silk free and to place a duty of 3 p r cent upon the manufactured article. At the same time you voted to place a duty of 136 per cent aversge on woolen srd worsted, cloth, valued at not more than 1 cenus per pound. Was this act on your part Induced by your friendship for the people? Was It In the Interest of the common people? Did you vote to place thta exorbitant duty upon goode ud by "us, of the common people"; for the bereflt of anyone except your cupon cllpplng chums and associates? Your chief legitimate Income Is said to be from a large cotton print mill, owned by yourself and relatives. In New England. Tou voted to place a duty of US cents a square yard (see paragraph 318. schedule I) on the class of goods manufactured by your mill. When the mechanic farmer or other rltlsen Is compelled to purchase this class of goods and pay tribute to you and your plutocratic intimates and as sociates, on account of the official position given to you by the people ot Oregon, they can calm their outraged feelings by the harpy thought that you secured this position and opportunity to plunder them and hope to continue In your present office by the use of resounding platitudes and windy com monplaces and the assertion that you are a friend of the people.

STRIKES MAY BE CALLED OFF Unions Seek to Quiet Clamor Caused by Explosion. .. DETECTIVES HUNT 3 "MEN Police, Detectives and Private Citizens Join In Search Clews Being Followed May Lead to Arrest of Conspirators. LiOS ANGELES. CaL. Oct I. Under the stimulus of proffered rewards ag gregating $150,000; hundreds of men, policemen ina private citizens here and In all Coast cltks are searching for clews that may lead to the arrest of the hand of connjlrators who are held re sponsible for the blowing up of the Times building last Saturday and the attempted d.-etruclion of tlie homes of General Har rison Gray Otis and F. J. Zechandelaor. Police and civil officials believe that there were at least three men concerned 'n the outrage which cost the lives ot more than a score of Times' employes and the city has set a price of $10,000 upon the head of each. The county today voted an additional reward of $5000 for each man captured and convicted, and on top of all this, members of, the Merchants and Manufac turers AssoclaUon, , of which Mr. Zee handelaar is secretary, decided to offer a reward of JM.OOO.

This total of $150,000 may even yet be Increased. $150,000 Reward Unprecedented. Upon the assumption that at least three men were responsible for the wrecking of the Times, the combined offers of re wards thus reach up to $150.000 a figure almost unprecedented in the annals of criminal pursuits, and indicative of the determination of all classes to bunt down and bring to Justice the perpetrators of the dynamite outrage. The entire city has been thoroughly aroused.

KADJI KIRAM PAYS EXPENSES Diminutive Potentate Has 14 as His Guests on Trip. STUDY OF LIFE IS OBJECT Members of Party Speak Only Few AVords of English and They Stick Close to Each Cither, Fright, j ened If They Are Separated. SAN FRANCISCO.. Oct. 3. (Special.) Hadji Jumabul Kiram, Sultan of Sulu and representative of Mahomed in an archipelago that includes nearly 200 islands and 85,000 fierce little followers of the prophet, arrived in San Francisco on the Overland Limited yesterday aft ernoon on the last stage of a Journey of education round the world. With him are his brother, Dato Raja (Prince) Muda Mulalil Wasit, the high priest of Sulu, Hadji Mohamed, Lord Chief Justice Hadji Taliir; Hadjl Culam, a son of Prime Minister Hadjl Butu; Sallp Maydno, a cousin of the Sultan, and C. J. Werble, interpreter, secretary and traveling manager for the party. Sultan Man of Few Words. The Sultan not a man of many words. He speaks seldom, yet when he entered the automobile which was waiting for him at the ferry and looked around at the tall buildings that line Market street, he talked excitedly for a full minute to Werble. The latter said, when asked what the Sultan was saying: "He is unable to believe that this city was burned to the ground only four years ago." There were 15 members of the party originally but many ot these have stopped off at different: places and will return to the Philippines later. The entire party which arrived yesterday will leave for Manila on the transport Sherman tomorrow. Ruler Is Studying. The itinerary included visits to the principal European capitals and the ob ject of the journey was the study ot European and American life and econ omy by the Sjltan, in order that the conditions of his own peopie may be bettered. The trip is being .made at the Sul tan's own expense, although he Is not a wealthy man. Ho has, of course, no Income from taxation, as the islands belong to the United States, but he has an income from this Government amounting to about $250 a month and a yearly stipend from the North Bor-, neo Company of $5300 in Malaysian money, each dollar being worth soma 57 cents. In addition to this he has a good income from estates which he owns and a large farm where cattle and general produce are raised. Party Clings Together. None of the members of the party speak more than a few words of Eng lish, and. while traveling, they keep to gether like a flock W sheep, each on becoming frightened on being separat ed from the rest. They are all smal men, and the Sultan is almost diminu tive. He is scarcely five feet in height and does not weigh an ounce more than 110 pounds. While this little Kiram is only a nominal ruler, he is the1 religious' head of Sulu, and is looked upon with awe and almost worshiped by 85,000 of the gameet fighters in the world. It is due to his Influence over his people that tha United States has so lltle trouble in that part of the Philippines, the only two insurrections having been sup pressed with comparatively little diffi culty. , COUNTESS RECOVERS GEMS Jewelry Stolen From Peeress bj Hell Boy Is Returned.
