ANNUAL BANQUET
Speakers Point Out What They
Consider Dangers in Re
call of Judiciary.
SEATTLE MAN IS GUEST
V. A. Prtrr. In Talk on -The Fa
1115 Court." Clu-s CrU'braK-d
Where Moral llerolm
Win Shown by JodRe.
T" hundred members of the Mult
lnman Bar Association, with the Jus
.i .-es of the Supreme. Circuit and
'ounty Courts, ansenihled at the Mult
nomah Hotel Tuesday night to attend
tre sixth annual banquet of the asfocl
itlnn and to listen to eloquent tributes
to the honor in.l dignity or the legal
ro fesslon.
It was tlgnlftcant that In all but one
t the six addresses the question of the
reran of the Judiciary vil dwelt upon.
Edwin It Heckbert acted as toast
master and Introduced aa the first
1aker Itobert Treat riatt. who speke
n "The Gentle Art of Courtesy." a
recognition of the greater considera
tion for younger members of the legal
fraternity by the leading lawyers which
prevails today and which, he recalled,
was not characteristic of ihe profea
ilon In the days gone by.
Speaking in place of Kalph K. Moody,
a ho was unable to be present. ex-Scn-itor
Charles"V. Fulton expressed what
le felt to be the greatest danger, not
"niy to the proper administration of
lutf-e. but to the republican form of
tovernmest. in his address on "The Ite
.alt of Judicial iectsion."
C'aaar fr Kvtl la Rerall.
While expressing the opinion that
.he rerall as applied to other offices
night be beneficial, the speaker was
lot certain but that Ihe rerall as ap
plied to the Judiciary and Its decisions
would have the effect to make-for more
till than good.
"I am -convinced." said Senator Ful
:on. "that applied to the Judiciary no
vtl could be greater that there could
e. no Influence that would tend more
radically to destroy a free government
tban that of the recall of the Judiciary.
"I say that because the Judiciary does
lot deal with policies. It has nothing
lo do with the establishing of policies
(or the government of the people. It Is
atabllsbrd for the administration of
!he law; to declare tl.e law as it is
written; to declare the law aa It has
seen handed, down to them through the
isen.
The important qualification for auch
in official la that he shall be one that
Aas the courage and the honesty re
cordless of personal consequences to
iimself. politically or otherwise, to say
a hat he believes the law Is. Whenever
u establish a system of government
A. ax. will prevent, or will tend to pre
sent, men from doing that, you have
r.stabllshed a sysuro of government
that will end in chaos and lead ulti
mately to Its overthrow and ruin,
fudges deal not with policies. They
ire selected for the purpose of deter
mining the rights between individuals.
Danirr at Rerall folate Oat.
"In a popular government partlcular
y the Judiciary Is an all Important
lenient. We have no government by
nen; we have a government by law.
ind we establish the Judiciary for the
urpose of determining the law between
nrltvldual. We require that the Judee
ihall administer that law equally to all;
hat which Is the law for the rich man
s the law for the poor man. The very
noment you require the Judge to de
part from that principle and determine
Jie law. not according to the principle.
according to the law laid down In
re statute book, but according to
arhat he believes the popular concep
tion of law to be. you cease to be a
lovernment of men and become the
government of the whims and bias of
he man in the street, who may exrrt
jower. of particular Individuals who
nay be charged with the administra
tion of the law. '
"It isn't a question of the majority;
t Is not a question of what thimoh
hit think should be done In this or
;ht rase. The Judge ought not to
ive Lis ear to the ground. lie ought
not to be expected to stop and ron
iMer and be subjected to a system thst
will require him to stop and consider
S'hat the effect of Ms deeree Is go
ing to be. but what is Justice," what Is
Ihe truth of a controversy.
rtea Marie I la Jadlrlary.
Irt us uphold the Judiciary: let us
phold our system of Judicature, our
nsl'm of time-honored policies and
orlnclples that have made this Nation
treat and strong. Let us be abie to
7dnt to the Judiciary of our state and
leclare that. In spite of the incoming
flood of recall agitation it has never
seen shattered, never has been shaken,
ir.d there never has been a doubt about
the honor and fearlessness of our
rourts. and let ns see that men are
glared there who have the courage to
Hand for what la right."
W. A. Peters, of the Seattle Bar As
lociatlon. was the next speaker. In
lrallng with the question of "The
Passing Court" he referred to various
eiebrated cases, such as the Ired irott
Ta.e. the Income tax cases and oth
ers, where morsl heroism had been
ihown by the Judges rendering the de
rations in the fai.e of public sentiment
opposed to them.
vtrid-WIe I' a rest Reeaaiee.
Wallace McCain ant. sneaking on "An
:ndrendent Judiciary." alluded to the
a or. .1-wide unrest and the determlna
.mn of the mass of the peopre to have
art In afTairs of government. Ilepre
lentatlve government, he said. Is no
. oncer popular. "The man who de
nounces legislative bodies can always
vjvve an audience." said Mr. McCamant:
tie man who abides by principles and
recedeot speaks to empty benches.
Sills of rights are no longer valued, but
ire considered by many as hindrances
j tiie march of progress."
The recall, the speaker said, is to be
lere for a long time. As applied to
judge, he declared that it should only
rrall against those whose private
'Ives were known to be a scandal and
hose public acts are corrupt. He
onc!err.nd what he called "trial by
res" and expressed Ihe hope that the
awyer who expects to have his case
ton through the agency of the press
a-ould be treated by his professional
issoclates In the same way as doctors
lo the physician mho advertises.
Lrf-t us stand shoulder to shoulder in
opposition to all schemes which seek to

merican Judiciary." said Mr. McCain -iM.

ABERDEEN'S MAYOR HERE
Man Who Csed Oub Against I. YV.
W. Describes Condition in City.
The "Fighting Mayor" of Aberdeen.
James W. Parks, who received this title
last Fall by driving- the I. W. W. out
of his city with clubs In the, hands of
a posse of citlsens. was at the Imperial
last night on a short business trip and
tells a story of business conditions
there that are not encouraging for the
present or future.
"We have DO experienced special po
lice employed at a cost of nearly 1300
dally. These were collected from many
cities of the Coast and have done more
executive work more Intelligently than
300 citlxens.
"Of our 12 mills nine are now In op
eration under three-quarter service and
will be continued if we can secure more
white" men. The Creeks or Austrians
are not permanent residents. Some of
the Finns are married men with fam
ilies, yet It Is among them that the
trouble appears to have its beginning.
The citizens' committee of Aberdeen Is
sponsor for an appeal for Americans to
come to Aberdeen to work In the mlljs
and bring their families with them. It
guarantees permanent Jobs, with full
protection.
"When tte men left the mills and a
strike was declared, there was no de
mand for an Increase In wsges or any
other demand. I am under t:ie Impres
sion that we shall later have more se
rious trouble along the same lines and
Its center mar not, be at Aberdeen.
From conversation with some of the
members of the I. W. W. It seems to
be a world-wide movement. Some say
It Is on the line of Socialism and others
that It Is anarehistlc.' but when asked
direct questions as to their principles
they do not know what It means.
"Temporarily Aberdeen has the sit
uation under full control.
"As long as I am Mayor of Aberdeen
and nerve the support now given me.
the I. V. W. will not make Its perma
nent residence In my city."

OREGO.N'IAN NEWS BUREAU, Vrash
I ton. April 10. Roosevelt leaders are
serving notice day by day that they will
contest the election of Taft delegates In
a majority of the districts where Roose
Telt candidates failed of selection and
Taft delegates were elected to the Chl
raio convention. This Is true In the
South, where Taft sentiment Is shown
to be strong: It is true in Indiana,
where Taft won In the primaries over
Roosevelt, and It will be true In many
other states, .particularly states where
Roosevelt was supposed to be strong.
Why all these contents? Why should
the Indiana delegates, for instance, be
challenged when they were chosen at a
popular primary and the popular vote
was for the Taft men? Why should
Southern delegates, chosen and in
structed, as were the delegates instruct
ed for Taft four years ago. and. for
Roosevelt in 1904, be challenged by the
men who used them In their own inter
est In Ihe two preceding campaigns?
BoltaK latrat Suspected.
The wholesale manner In which the
Roosevelt managers are preparing to
contest Taft delegates regularly chosen
has given rise to the suspicion that
these contests are to be used as the
basis of a bolt from the Chicago con
vention. The contests will be decided
by the Republican National Commit
tee. That committee, as- was demon
strated at Its meeting In Washington in
December. Is overwhelmingly in favor
of Taft. It requires no second bight to
see that this committee, will refuse to
unseat regularly elected Taft delegates
In order to seat contesting Roosevelt
delegates, where the Roosevelt people
have no ground on which (to stand.
There may be a few instances where
contests will succeed. It If can be shown
that. Taft delegates were not properly
chosen, but It Is not to be pr''sumed
that the National Committee will un
seat regularly chosen Taft delegates by
the score merely to qufct the clamor of
the Roosevelt managers.
Bluff PersHStrs C'ampalga.
Either this Is the parposo of the
Roosevelt campaign managers, or else,
by bringing contests from all parts of
the country, they hope to force the Taft
managers Into compromising with them
and seating several of the-, contesting
Roosevelt delegates whec the facts do
not warrant such action. The Roose
velt campaign thus far has been run
largely on bluff and It may be that
theso contests are Initiated as a Bluff.
Some of the President's closest friends
do not take this view, but rather In
cline to the opinion that Roosevelt Is
really laying plans to run as an Inde
pendent candidate.
Thla plan Is the more likely to be fol
lowed If the Baltimore convention nom
inates a conservative Democrat, for In
that event Roosevelt would undoubted
ly poll many radical Democratic votes
In November.
DEPOPULATION IN FRANCE
The Jnetion DUcnsd From Many
Point of Vletv.
North American Review.
In thla ear. 1912, less than 100.000
living babies will be born to the 4,000,
000 of France.
This Is the problem of French de
population In a nutshell. It Is the most
significant fact In French life. In no
other country In the world Is the birth
rate so low. In no other country In the
world has the, birth-rate fallen so
rapidly and so stoadlly.
Not everywhere In France has the
birth-rate declined equally. In a few
departments It has actually increased.
There are more children per family In
the maritime Alps, in the mining dis
tricts about Calais, or among the peas
ants of Brittany than there are in Nor
mandy or on the banks of the X3aronne.
If. however, you take an average thous
and of the French population, you will
find an annual birth of only 30 babies.
How low this birth .rate la may be
seen by comparing It with that of other
countries. In bO governments of Euro
pean Russia the birth rate exceeds 48.
in other words, there are more than
4S annual births per thousand of the
population compared to the 20 of
France. In Bulgaria there are over 41,
In Roumanla 40. In Servia 39. in Hun
gary 37, in Austria 35, In Germany 34.
In Spain 14, In Chili 37, in Argentine 35.
In Italy. Japan. Finland, Holland. Por
tugal, Uruguay, there are frojn 30 to
31 births per thousand of the popula
tion. Denmark's birth rate is 29: Swe
den's Is 2. In England there are over
27 births per thousand: In Australia
over 26: in New Zealand almost 27.
Except for Ireland and certain -American
states (Maine. Vermont, Connecti
cut. Michigan).- do country nearly ap
proaches the very low birth rate of
France.
The low birth rate Is due to the fact,
not that the people do not marry, but
that they marry and have few children.
During the first ten years of the nlne
..nih rntiirr thr were four legiti
mate living children to each marriage
In France: In the fourth decade there 1
were only 3.1 such children; in j.he J
ninth decade only 3: while In 1910 there
were only 2.4 legitimate living children
per marriage. For every thorfsaud mar
ried women In Holland It was recently
found that -f6 legitimate living chil
dren were born annually: In Prussia,
Bavaria, Norway, Scotland. Saxony.
Austria, Italy, Finland, Ireland. Servia,
Belgium, Denmark. Sweden. Switzer
land, Austria-Hungary, the number of
such children born to each thousand
married women within these ages'
ranged from 265 to 224: in France dur
ing the same period, the number was
only 150. and today It is still smaller.
For all these countries except France,
a child Is born, once In every three and
one-half years of wedlock: in France,. a
child is born once In seven years.
Nor is the low birth rate of France
due t any physical sterility. A com-,
parlson was recently made of the num
bers of centlrely childless households in
Paris, Berlin and Rio Janeiro. Of all
marriages whiclv had lasted from 15 to
20 years 11.8 per cent, had been junfrult
ful In the Brazilian city,-12.8 per cent.
In the German city, and only 13.3 per
cent, in the French city. Tuberculosis
and alcoholism, which are prevalent in
France, may lower the quality of chil
dren, but do not necessarily lessen their
number. In Canada the French have
proved that they are not incapable of
bearing children. The reduced birth
rate of France is voluntary, not com
pulsory. EUGENICS WRITER HERE
l.A KKIXK HELEN BARER GUEST

Nled Antlior and Magazine Writer
lo Be Guest of Suffrage
League Tomorrow.
La Reine Helen Baker, author and
magazine writer of National reputation,
who has been visiting in the city for
the past few days, will be the guest of
honor at a dinner to be given tomorrow
noon at the Multnomah Hotel by the
women of the National College Equal
Suffrage League. Mrs. Baker at pres
ent is staying with Mrs. Sarah K.
Comerford, who.' while president of the
National College Equal Suffrage
League at Spokane, became an Intimate
friend of the author.
Mrs. Baker has written a number of
works, principally on eugenics, t-'
which she Is an ardent advocate, and
Is on the staff of writers for the Hearst
Sunday papers. She also does much
magazine work.
sh hi, rAcpntlv returned from a
' two years' tour of the world. She
passed six months In London on her
latest tour, and while there participated
In the street demonstrations of the
militant suffragists.
' She has Just completed a new book
on eugenics and lits disposed of the
manuscript to an Eastern publisher.
The book will deal with her observa
tions while traveling In Europe and
will present conditions as she found
them and the various phases of their
relations to practical eugenics.
Among the conclusions she draws are
that by the elimination of segregation
of the sexes In schools, the teaching
of social hygiene and the placing of
women on an equal plane with men by
enfranchising them. Immorality will
gradually be abolished from society.
She will also show why criminals.
Imbeciles and the Insane should be
sterilised and nfedlral examinations
takeij before marriage.
WOMAN'S B0DY 4 FOUND
Mrs. McGrath, Who Disappeared
Inst Summer, Taken From Klver.
BEND. Or., April 10. (Special.) fish
ermen out after Deschutes trout came
upon an unexpected find Sunday after
noon in that river two miles below
Bend In the body of a woman, later
Identified as that of Mrs. Tom Mc
Grath. who mysteriously disappeared
July 1.
Mrs. L. C. Fleming, while following
along the banks of the stream with her
rod. made the gruesome discovery, her
attention being attracted by a small
bottle lying near the water's edge, with
a cork close besido it. The body was
lodged against rocks and logs, and al
though it had remained In the icy water
for over eight months was In a well
preserved condition.
That the dead woman had taken poi
son to make her death doubly certain
was shown by the empty phial, which
had contained chloroform. From rags
tied to nearby bushes It also appeared
that she desired searchers to be led to
the spot where she 'plunged into the
river.
When Mrs. McGrath disappeared last
Summer she left a letter accusing her
husband of mistreating her, saying he
led her a "John L. Sullivan life." In
the letter she announced that she would
commit suicide, but as she had made
similar threats before, and because no
trace of her was found by searching
parties, the theory was abandoned and
instead It was believed that she simply
had deserted her abusive husband. The
dead woman is survived by a mother In
Denver. Colo., and by her husband. Tom
Mi-Grath, who slipped away some
months after her disappearance, and Is
said to be at or near Nooksack, Wash.
A WOMAN'S ALGIERS
The Latter Not Safe for Exploration
Without Ex-ort.
Scrlbncr's.
No foreigner knows what the Arab
does; to a few has It been given to un
derstand what he thinks; within his
house he Is as much master in Algiers
as he is In Mecca, so long as he avoids
the appearance of what the lnndel calls
evil, and so long as he compiles with
certain demands, equally foolish and
outrageous to'hini. in respect to regis
tration, vaccination, sanitation, and the
like. There is no shs.rp boundary be
tween the two communities: If you fol
low a street far enough you pass the
Imperceptible frontier. "After so many
years." says M. Fromentin, "there are
no barriers between the two cities ex
cept those of suspicion and antipathy
existing between the two races, , but
those suftlce to separate them. They
touch one another, they live in the
closest companionship, but neither meet
nor mingle except In the worst of each
the dirt of their gutters and their
vices." To any one who has ever seen
for a moment behind the veil of native
life there Is something almost terri
fying abort the impenetrable mystery
of these silent houses. Things happen
there, and human nature assumes as
pects there, of which the Western world
never dreams. I confess to being un
easy when I see careless and Ignorant
Westerners certainly when I see West
ern women walking alone in the na
tive quarters of Eastern towns. Sup
pose one of those dark doors should
open suddenly, the stranger be dragged
quietly within and the door shut? That
stransOr might disappear forever with
out leaving a single trace. It would be
useless to search, unless the authori
ties were prepared to ransack every
house, to Its most private apartments,
in a whole district, and to do that
would be. If not to provoke a revolt, at
least to stir up such dangerous unrest
and hostility as to make It Impossible,

A MODEL CITY FATHER
Ten Portrait of William Butler Dun
can, of New York.
Metropolitan Magazine.
Sincfe the death of John BIgelow. at
the ripe old age of 94, there has been
a certain amount of discussion as to
the rights of succession to his title of
New York's premier citizen. Many have
been disposed to attribute it to Joseph
H. Choate, the former Ambassador of
the United States, to Great Britain, and
who In January' celebrated his 80th
birthday, in the enjoyment of wonder
ful physical and mental vigor.
But there are still more. Including
Mr. Choate himself, who Insist on as
cribing the honor to William Butler
Duncan, the senior of the former Am
bassador to England, by several years,
who for half a century has most appro
priately made his home at 1 Fifth ave
nue a house renowned through several
generations, here and abroad, for its
kindly hospitality, and where well nigh
every distinguished foreigner who has
visited New York since "befo" the wah"
has had the opportunity of stretching
his legs beneath that wonderful ma
hogany table which is one of the feat
ures of the establishment. The fact
that the very first call made by the
Duke of Connaught on reaching New
York in January last, was at 1 Fifth
avenue, serves to revive memories of
his previous stay in New York, in 1868,
when he made his headquarters there.
Kight years previously, that Is to say.
In 1860, Mr. Duncan had headed, the
committtee of New York citizens or
ganized for the purpose of welcoming
King Edward, as Prince of Wales, to
this city. ,
Mr. Duncan still makes a practice of
going down town every day. no matter
what the weather, to the offices of the
Mobile & Ohio Railroad, of which he
has been president for some 40 years,
and his family have the greatest diffi
culty in persuading him to wear an
overcoat, even in the coldest weather.
When he does yield to them, he only
consents to don an overcoat so thin
that it has often made me shiver, while

The 3-year-old child of Albert Stepp,
living two miles from Canton, Texas,
fell feet foremost in a 1.1-inch bored
well 60 feet deep. By the use of a
mirror the child could be Keen, and the
little fellow was constantly crylnsr and
calling to his praiidpa to come and get
him. The grandparents, and parents
were wild with excitement, and over

men and women were soon gathered,
all anxious to get a loop over the child
to draw it out. bnt with ho avail. A
negro bov 1 years old was let down,
and, getting the child by the sleeve.
both were drawn up half way. The
sleeve gave way and the child fell back
to the bottom. All were horror-stricken
for fear the fall would certainly kill
the child. Then they tied a rope to the
leg of the nesro boy and let him down
head first. He put the loop of a rope
about the child's body, and then the
two were drawn out separatoly. The
miraculous part of the incident is that
the child was only bruised a little and
not seriously injured.
