Mr. Standley began a per- ststent attack on the character and Manrtlnt" of the County Superintendent. A hen Mr. Robinson resigned his posi tion aa superintendent of the educa tional exhibit at the exposition because of Illness.

Mr. rUand !ey also declares that his campaign of defamation waa kept up after the fair. . Malicious Slander Confessed. Neither Mr. Rohlnson nor Mr. Stand ley, however, shows willingness to dis cuss the subject aside from Mr. Stand ley's formal statement, which Is: "I. Wllllsm J. fitandley. of tha City of Portland.

It was agreed that copies of the statement be made and circulated among person of Mr. Robinson's pro fession who had heard the reports and among othera who were likely to have been Influenced by them. I wish to stand by that statement. waa Mr. Standley'a comment yester dsy. "1 have assumed all responsibil ity for the reports concerning Mr. Rob inson and don't wish to do him further InJ'iry."

No matter which way Federal Judge Wolverton decides th famoua Southern Pactflo land grant suit today, the case will go to th United Statea Circuit Court of Appeals and then to th Uni ted Statea Supreme Court. "I am confident th ultimate dec I sion w HI be In favor of the Govern ment." aald B. D. Townsend. the Gov ernment representative, last nlsrht. nd I am equally confident that neither those who Intervened in the Government's suit, numbering about &000. nor the 65 cross-complainants represented by A. W. Lafferty will gain their point. "Persona who are seeking to Jump thla valuable land the moment the court decides this suit will be disap pointed, for the land will not be sub Ject to homestead entry until made ao by act of Congress. It la certain that Congress will give everybody an equal chance, for thla ahould be the people's victory, not a victory of a few per son who are sitting tip. waiting to Jump the best of th land. It will be for Congress to describe the method by which this land shall be disposed of, and Congress undoubtedly will dis qualify any one who haa Jumped the land In advance of the time set for entering It, Just aa Congress did in opening Oklahoma." Decision to Re Given Today. Judg Wolverton's decision will be handed down at 10 o'clock this morn ing. Tha case Is before him on tha demurrer of th Southern Pacific Com pany to the complaint of the Govern ment, which seeks to cancel patent to about 2.300.000 acrea of the .richest agricultural and timber land In Ore son. Thla Is estimated to be worth from 10.000.000 to 375.000.000. and the law provided that the railroad com pany should sell It to actual settlers In blocks not to exceed 10 acrea to one peraon. and at not more than 12.50 an acre. But the railroad company aold aome of It, 1000 acres and more to each individual. The Got ernment took action by asking thn cancellation of patent to the tract. All who purchased more than 1000 acres are mad parties to the Government's stilt. B. D. Townsend. special agent for the Attorney-General, filed the suit Sep tainber 8. 1908. Mr. Lafferty had already filed suit on behalf of 65 persons who alleged that they had actually settled on the land and had demanded that the railroad company give them title, but title had been refused. They asked that the court by writ of mandamus compel the railroad to give title When Mr. Townsend filed the- suit on behalf of the Government, these (5 persons were made cross-complainants. Suit Based on Early Grants. The suit of the Government Is based upon two grants to the Oregon A Cali fornia Railroad Company, since ab sorbed by the Southern Foclfic Com pany.

SHOWS may come and shows may go, but minstrels go on forever. And always there's a big following of ad mirers In their wake. It has been two seasons since Lew Dockstader mln strelled amongst ua. and last evening at the Helllg all hla old friends and their friends came to laugh at his Jokes and drink In th music of his bunch of help- -era. A goodly bunch It Is. too, and th entertainment they give is more like a dusky vsudevUle bill long-drawn out and completely filling. Everybody goes to work early In th gam and apparently no one rests. There's none of the "old-tlma "Gentle men, be eested" palaver, no "bones." no "end-men" and even the "Who-was-that-lady-I-seen-you-with -yesterday" di alogue ts relegated to thj past. Thee are . Indeed "twentieth century" min strels. Just aa their billing aaya. The first psrt of the evening's show Is distinctly an Innovation. Instesd of the traditional seml-clrele. Mr. Dock stader. always original, has substituted a muslral comedy, or aa near to a mu sical comedy as a melange of songs and dancea and chatter can be. and yet be girl less. -This he haa been pleased to deslgnste a gathering of the "Possum Hunt Club." While this la the dark- meat. It Is. In fact, the only part of the entertainment that keeps alive the at mosphere of minstrelsy. In this act th specialities appear In rapid-fire order and each received several encores. Hsppy Naulty, who soma dsy is going to pull down a fat salary doing a single in vaudeville, came tn for popularity aecorKi only to Dockstader himself. Happy sings. In a wonderfully high, rlear tenor and dancea as lightly as th oft-heard of feather. Allan Campbell, whoae voice la a splendid big deep basso: Charles Folk, a tenor of great range and aweetneaa and Frank Farron, a baritone of power, form the singers worth while in the cast- Dockatader la naturally th pivotal attraction round which everything and everybody else revolves. Much of the comedy Is painfully ancient, but even those with "whiskers" drew laughs from someone somewhere) In the audi ence. There are lota of new bits of humor, too, and one or two bon-mota that shake a foot daringly over the line of good taste. Dockatader'a piece de resistance la his acerie In an alr-shlp. In which ha floats nonchalantly about over the heads In the first three rowa. Seated In thla airy-fairy contrivance he sings many ballade of local color and subjjet. For Instance, he has put tha Mayoralty campaign Into verse: the Broadway bridge question. Portland baseball games and buildings, cltlxens and civic conditions all come In for nice friendly rape. The second part of the entertain ment Is a travesty on th opera "Pina fore." Lewie F. Mulr, a ragtime plan 1st. plays plesTSantly. and Ralph Allen, a recent addition to the company, scores decidedly with a whistling num ber. Carrol Johnson, an old-time min strel man who has headed companies of his own. contributes dance numbers and a song or two. Stage settings and costumes are handsome, and the orchestral music Is particularly good. The entertainment will b repeated this evening and to morrow .evening. No matinee.

This well-known tale of New Jersey folk, after 30 -years of popularity. Is today one of those compelling and thor oughly enjoyable, clean and unpreten tious, homilies thst appeal to the class of theatergoers who do not demand problem plays for their theatrical pabulum. Eliminating tha many pleasing fea tures of solo and choral singing, the play Is still meritorious. Add the musi cal numbers and It becomes real enter tainment, of old-fashioned sort, with fau large morals tucked unobtrusively In corners. The late iDenman Thompson, himself one of the best-known of character actors, first shaped this play, an un pretentious recital of th most sincere phsses of human emotions, and In a one-act drama was produced under the title of "Joshua Whltcomb." Like Mr. Finney's turnip, however, "It grew and It grew," and finally was launched as a melo-dramatlc comedy. The characters are typical small town folk; conscientious, honeat, kindly old Uncle Josh, a role Mr. Thompson created. Aunt Matilda, gentle and pa tient: Cy Prime and his crony Seth Perkins: Rickety Ann. Eb Ganxey the whistling wizard, the Harlem Spider, the big New York cop. Reuben Whlt comb the wandering son of old Uncle Joshua, the Judge and all the other ac cepted and prescribed characters that necessarily go tn round out the telling of a rustic story. William Lawrence, a capable char acter actor, very acceptably fills Mr. Thompson'a old role, and delighted yesterday's audience with his quaint speech and unaffected manner. Joseph A. Daley is an unusually In teresting portrayer of types too. his Judge Patterson and later his police man . characterization both being ex ceptionally good. Another player who creates Interest la Frederick Lyon as Jack Hazard. Mr. TTyon also Is the baritone soloist, and with a double quartet gives several numbers during th performance. LAN E SEES WASTE Million a Year Dissipated, People's Forum Is Told. In 1868. The second grant was made May 4. 1S70. The grants gave the rail road company every other section of land on each side of the railroad's right of way, provided the railroad had been actually constructed. The in tent of Congress, apparently, was to make It possible for the company to construct a railroad from Portland to San Francisco. At first the land sold slowly, then after the panic of 1893 and 1893 It sold faster, and the rail road company raised the price to flO an acre. It was the amendment of April 10, 18S9. which provided for the sales in ha, wnnw. ,tan 1 li oT-m , nil ri-ha AfV and at not more than 32.50 an acre.

IRISH PATRIOT LAUDED MANY! i i Speaker Advocates Increasing Size v of Blocks Streets Worth More Than $20,000,000 Declared ' Absolutely Given Away.. MICHAEL DAVITTS MEMORY IS HONORED BY HIBERNIAN'S, United Irish League of Portland Joins in Big Gathering; and Loyal Speeches. Members of the Ancient Order of Hibernians and the United Irish League of Portland gathered at Woodmen of tha World Hall last night to pay hom age to the memory of Michael Davltt, one of Ireland a most loyal sons. Wallace McCamant. In paying tribute, to Davltt for being instru mental in bringing about land reforms in Ireland, gave a review of the his tory of the landlordism that existed there sine the early days of feudal Ism, showing that it was impossible for the Irish people to receive Justice or relief from the tyranny of the ab sentee landowners. Th first Important etep forward, he said, waa made when Michael Davltt began his fight for the land tenants with a view to having the titlea to the land restored to the people and to re' lleve the country of th curs of lan lordlsm. "Until recently. Ireland had received mighty little from England In 800 years." said Mr. McCamant. "Now the land Is paeslng Into th hands of the peaaanta and a great change la taking place in Ireland. Michael Davitt achieved a great reform for his coun try In causing the curse of the absentee landlord to cease In Ireland. He lived to see the fruits of his great cause. He ranks with the great men of his kind." D. Soils Cohen eulogized Davitt The Friend of Humanity." He said that Davltt was of a broad and liberal mind, without prejudice for religion or nationality, and was one of the most prominent figures In late history for the uplift of mankind. Davltt was not only tireless In his cervices for his countrymen, but he was Interested and active In helping the weak and power. less of other nations. The speaker spoke fee'lngly of Davitt s part In pub llehing the atrocities practiced upon the Jews In Russia. 'He became an Inspiration to free dom and brotherhood," said Mr. Cohen. "He will always be revered by my peo pie. In the lives of men like him we car. ee the dawn of a brighter age when the weak shall not be oppressed by the strong, when force shall be tnlnd. Slay heaven bless the American mother who gave him birth." - The hirrt address was given by A. D. Crldge. who told of Davltts Influ ence nnd work as a "Labor Unionist." Davltt was a frequent visitor to the United Ftates. and took a great inter est In the labor question of this coun try. Raymond Duncan discussed "Greek nd Gael tn Literature." In addition fo the addresses, vocal solos were ren dered by Mrs. Ray Sullivan. Miss Rose Fridle and Bert O. Carl. J. Hennessy Murphy presided over the meeting. Addressing the People's Forum In the Medical building' last night. Dr. Harry Lane mad tb admission that be would Ilk to serve the people of Portland again as their chief executive but not until the city charter was extensively amended and th Mayor was clothed with greater power or a commission plan of government was adopted by tha people. The subject of Dr. Lane's address was "Street Vacations and Other Things." "I do not think I am making a mis statement when I say the city of Port land has given away absolutely streets having a valuation of between. 320.000, 000 and 830,000.000." said Dr. Lane. This was an outright gift for which th municipality received nothing. Streets or other public property should be vacated only on specific conditions and the city should never part with Its title to such proporty and the right at all times to use them. Streets belong to abutting property, but their use be longs to the people." Dr. Lane aald there were 1000 miles of streets In Portland which. In his opinion, was about twice as many streets as the city should have. "Main tenance of streets constitutes a perma nent fixed charge against the city whi3h, in Portland, ultimately will be come unbearable," he added. "I would urge a reduction In the number of streets, especially In- the outlying dis tricts, oy increasing tno size oi tn blocks. This should be done for the best Interests of the city in the future." In further criticism of the city char ter. Dr. Lane referred briefly to his administration as Mayor, calling atten tion to some of the handicaps he had to contend with. 'The Mayor is a negative performer under the present system," said Dr. Lane. "He appoints only one official City Engineer, and then has only 3200 month to pay that official, who Is expected to do work that is worth a salary of 310,000 annually. With a 310,000-a-year man In the City Engi neer's office, between 3750,000 and 31.000,000 could be saved annually to the city. Nearly 31.000,000 is being wasted every year through the office of City Engineer as It is now conducted. 'If the conditions complained of are corrected. It wllUn necessary to amend ihe city charter to the extent that you would not know it, or resort to the only alternative and adopt a commis sion plan of government. Adopt tha latter plan and turn the government of your city over to five responsible men and hold the recall over everf last one of them. This will Insure the de sired administration of the clty'a busi ness. ' 'Under such a plan I would be glad again to be Mayor. I would be able In 60 days to give tnis city a cieaning- up that would be startling In Its scope." WOUND IS ACCIDENTAL While Cleaning Revolver Tremont ' Man Is Shot In Groin. CHURCH FIGHTS GAME FOUR VANCOUVER PREACHERS PREACH AGAINST FIGHTS. Clergyman Says Pugilist Ordinance Was Railroaded and No Chance Given to Make Protest. While cleaning an automatic revolver. G. W. Laughlin, who lives with his fam ily In a tent at Tremont Station, acci dentally shot himself at 9 o'clock last night. The bullet entered the left groin and ranged downward and ts thought to be Imbedded in. the bone. Dr. I. C. Sutton was summoned and dressed the wound and sent the man to St. Vincent's Hospital In a Red Cross ambulance. At the hospital the wound was not regarded as dangerous. Mrs. Laughlin said last night that her hus band was accidentally shot in Wyoming a few years ago. The family recently came to Portland. In VANCOUVER. Wash- April' 23 Special.) At a union service of the "nited Brethren. Presbyterian and Methodist congregations in the First Baptist Church tonight, several short sermons against prizefighting were de Ilvered and a movement was started to ve the City Council stop prizefights v ancou ver. Those who preached were Captain Dutton. temperance lecturer; Rev. C. R. Poole, pastor of th Baptist Church Rev. J. T. Merrill, representative of the United Brethren Church, formerly pastor of the local church, and Rev. H. Berrlnger. pastor of the Irvington Methodist Church. Rev. H. S. Templeton, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, led prayer and Rev. Morris Goodrich, pastor of the United Brethren, said the benediction. The church was crowded. Rev. Mr. Berringer said the manage ment of the prizefight was clean, as lean as It could be. but that a prize fight la against the state atatute and he Council cannot legalise It. lie said the Council passed the ordinance per mitting so-called boxing contests in ne night, railroading it. through, giv ing the ministers no chance to file a petition of protest. The Mayor, he de clared, had Informed him that he was looking after the financial aide of the question when he signed it, expecting the citizens of the city to get back a few of the dollars from Portland spent there by Vancouver people. The clergyman said he had the promise of the County Attorney that orders would go from his office that no more prize fights would be permitted here. He al leged that muny of the namea of. the 3SS on the petition asking the Council to permit "boxln exhibitions" were of those under legal age and the majority were not business men as alleged, but were "common people" who pass on the streets. He denied the report that he and Rev. Mr. Poole went to the prizefight Fri day night. i "We went to see who went there, and we were stationed outside.' We wanted to see If the business men were support ing such a hlng." he said. He saw the Mayor and members of the Council going Into the auditorium, he said, and had expected to see them take their wives and daughters but were sur prised to see them going in alone. "If it was no fit place for them to take their wives, it was no fit place for them to go," the .clergyman continued. Rev. Mr. Merrill chid the two min isters for not going Inside that they might talk intelligently about what had taken place and added he was going to buy s ticket to the next prizefight held In Vancouver If It costs 35 that he could see what Is done In such places and Swissco A fslarvelous Hair Producer Stops Baldness, Dandruff and Scalp Disease ana J&esrores uray or x uuou Hair To Its Natural Color.
