Portland leaders of the republican movement yesterday announced their Intention to carry the fight against the society to tha end. -We will not rest until all Testlge of the Empire Reform Association is erased." said a prominent Chinese yes terday. Word mas received yesterday at tha headquarters of the Young Chinese As sociation that tlie Empire Reform As sociation to. K down its sign rn San Eranclsco Tuesday, snd that at the same Urns the same thins was done in Stockton, where a large Chinese con tingent lives. The Los Angeles society took down Its sign more than a week ago. and a fight, similar to that now being made in Portland. Is being waged In Seattle to compel the society there to remove Its emblem. The sign st SVe Second street, over which the flgh Is being waged In Portland. Is unpreten tious and bears the inscription in Eng lish. "Chinese Empire Reform Associa tion." Leader Obey Order. Referring to the Injunction served upon Mm ordering him to refrain from doing violence to the property of the association, l-ee Quln. president of the Young- China Association. esterday laid: "Since I have never threatened or :ontetuplaled violence. I do not see a hat effect tha Injunction will have. I had a conference with Lee Maginn. act ing president of the local Empire Re form Association. Wednesday and he appeared agreeable to having the sign taken down. He told me. however, that he would have to confer with fellow members of the association before he could return a definite answer. -At the time of the conference I also warned him that tho young Chinese of Portland were exceedingly hostile to him. and were disposed to use vio lence In removing the offending sign. I suppose he thought I was threaten ing him. and rusned to court to obtain an injunction. As far as I am con cerned I shall obey the terms of the Injunction, but I cannot be responsible for what the other Chinese boys do." Portlaad r'ellowere Few. -Not one In a thousand still adheres to the Reform Association contingent," aald Lee Quln yesterday. -I am quite certain that there are not a dozen fol . lowers of the Association In Portland. The name Is also misleading. In Chi nese It is "Bong Wong Woy. which , means "Emperor Protective Associa tion." " Lee Quln then showed In Chinese characters how the name la properly written. At the meeting at the Chong Hwa Hall Wednesday night speakers were allowed to voice their sentiments pro and con. but not one spoke In favor of allowing tlje aign to remain. An ultl , matum of ten days has been given the ' Empire Reform Association in which to remove Its sign. How the Empire Reform Association was organised was told yesterday by the president of the Young China As . soclatlon. -Some ten years ago, when the Manchu dynasty first came into power," he said, "the Chinese Empire Reform Association wss orcsnlxed and branches of it were established in every coun try. Its objects were such then as at tracted the Chinese, and many flocked to Join Its ranks. Premi.es Net Kept. "T1m Chinese st that time were dreaming. They thought the Manchus were the same aa the Chinese, and were attracted by the many promises of re form that they made. They have , learned better since. They have learned that the Manchus are tyrants, out of sympathy with the Chinese, and that a'i their promises of reform are false. They have not kept one single promise. "A change In the constitution of China, better laws and a mora system atic form of government were promised by the new rulers. Tha only change obtained, however, has been a change for the worse.

There they meet resi dents of other parts of America who have been in the habit of going to Eu rope every year or so.

""It seems to me that the Armory and Auditorium ought to be together, anyway." said Mr. Collins, "and the plana can be changed, or new ones drawn, so that the two structures can be consolidated. The Auditorium will not be used many times throughout the year, and the Armory is used fre quently. I understand that the plan Is to rebuild the Armory, and If it is done I see no good reason why It should not he consolidated with the Auditorium, and thus save a big sum to the taxpayers of Portland." A number of prominent members of the East Side Business Men's Club, in cluding President Kellaher, expressed themselves aa approving the consolida tion of the Armory and Auditorium, and the subject will be considered at the next meeting of the club.
