Candidates out to catch tli attention
of the last Saturday night crowds be
foe the pdimarie next Friday took
possession of the business district Sat
urday night with every device they
could summon to their command, with
which to attract the attention of the
passersby.
Speechmaking on the principal cor
ners along Washington and Alder
streets was principally resorted to.
Most of the speMikoi lntrchangea cor
ners st various times during the even
ing. Other means of attracting the at
tention of the people on the streets,
however. Included brass bands, which
accompanied such speakers as had
them: banners, signs, decorated auto
mobile parades and a squad of small
bovs with tin horns and lusty lungs.
The. crowds thronged the streets, and
at places It wa difficult to pass. For
the most part they divided tholr atten
tion between the) different speaker,
stopping for a short time to listen to
one. and then passing along to listen to
another.
bepherd's Method Speetarolar.
The most spectacular demonstration
was made by George 8. Shepherd. A
brass band, an automobile, and a ban
ner 400 fee long, borne by a score
of men through the streets, a band of
newsboy and an automobile In which
he rodo. constituted the equipment of
his campaigning outfit. First, tho band
played, then the boys cheered, and then
there was a pause, and then the opera
tion was repeated.
Shepherd and his train marchod from
Seventh and Stark streots. where his
followers assembled, through the busi
ness district, across to the East Side
and back again. At several points
stops were made and th crowds ad
dressed cither by She-phord or Uwlght
Robinson.
A novel development of the evening
was a suffragist address by La Reine
Helen Bilker, who spoke from an auto
mobile at Sixth and Washington street.
It was the first address In the cause of
suffrage ever given In the city by a
woman. The crowd that gathered lis
tened Intently.
Mrs. Raker told the crowd that suf
rragists were nol man haters, as had
been urged against them. ."We have
brothers and fathers, the same as yon
have, and we love them just as dearly."
she said. Then she told of conditions
In England, where women were denied
the ballot, and yet performed the se
verest labor. Tlmy worked from 15 to
17 hours a day in such occupations as
welding links at the forge for a pit
tance. Roosevelt Committee Out.
A large automobile sight-seeing car
was secured by the Multnomah County
Roosevelt committee, who ventured
forth with a contingent of speakers and
a brass band, and succeeded In secur
ing large crowds. Among the speak
ers were Oliver M. Hlckey, eseorre
Arthur Itrown, W. E. Donnelly and V.
M. Spurgeon. K. A. Brand, secretary
of the .Multnomah County committee,
traveled with the car and directed Its
movements. The speakers told their
hearers that the country was now
faring a crisis that none but Roosevelt
could master, and at Intervals tele
grams telling of the election results In
Pennsylvania were read.
The largest crowds were attracted
by speakers for Walter If. Evans, and
their words were cheered vociferously.
The lie was hurled at assertions of
various of his opponents that Evans
was being supported by "big business":
that he had bought out the candidates
who hae withdrawn from the race in
Ins favor, and at charges affecting his
private life.' A speaker close by, who
had Just concluded a two-hour address
In his own behalf, the most of which
was devoted to assailing the character
of Evans, was Invited at the close to
meet the Evans speakers, but refused to
respond.
-Ileaest Mia" Is Sought.
Outside of refuting the charge of
the opponents of Evans the speakers
did not Indulge In personalities, but
devoted their arguments to shoarlnsr
the necessity of electing a competent
and honest man to fill the District At
torney's office. They pointed to the
record of Evans as C'upuly United
SiHtes District Attorney in proof of
their assertions that he was the proper
mnn for the place.
Evert L. Jones. Arthur A. Murphy
and Mr. Jacobson were the principal
speakers in Evans' behalf.
H. C. Smith, for County Clerk, had
in his service a score of automobiles
derorsted with signs urging his can
didacy, parading through the streets
during the evening. A few musicians
playing lively Southern airs occupied
the leading automobile.
Wilson Mea la Evidence.
Signs proclaiming the merits of J.
T. Wilson for Sheriff were also much In
evidence. Long tiles of men carrying
these signs across their shoulders
marched in single tile up and down the
business streets. Mr. Wilson spoke at
six different places during the evening,
between 7.2U and 10:30. Htv outlined
a strictly business and law enforce
ment policy, declaring that he would
use every effort to wipe out gambling,
roadhouses, and the white slave traffic,
and would appoint efficient deputies to
assist hltn In this.
B?sldt: the political meetings, there
were a large number of other meet
ings, religious meetings. Socialist
meetings. 1. W. W. meetings and
crowds gathered around fakers, so that
on the whole the streets In tho down
town district presented as animated
an appearance as is usually seen and
were tilled with perhaps the largest
campaign crowd seen on Portland
streets.
Allan R. Joy, Republican candidate
for the office of District Aitornoj,
spoke to a large cowd at the corner of
Sixth and Alder streets. He referred
lo his lung career as a lawyer and
his work as a member of the Council
as showing his fitness for the office of
District Attorney.
T. R. LET TRUSTS THRIVE

P.efore American People Todn.
t.. i . I.. .M.-I .. til.. i..l li - l.-pe- i
cmI.i An iiliack on Theodore Roose- j
tell by Sti.alor La FullcUe brought
a demonstration of enthusiasm from
1000 persons at the opera-house here
last night, which indicated to a. cer
tainty the Roosevelt feeling In this
end of the state. Declaring that
Roosevelt was virtually subsidized by
the trusts and presenting proofs to
back his assertion. Mr. I -a Follette
held his audience for over three hours.
"The greatest problem facing the
American people today Is that of
trusts." said the Senator. "It is a
shadow over the republic which is
threatening our liberty, and for the
present condition no man in the coun
try is more ' to blame than Theodore
Roosevelt. When he took office first
there was Just a dot on the horizon.
It was developing. When the Colonel
took office there were but 149 trusts.
Then was his rime to crush It. It was
a mere baby serpent which could be
crushed under the heel. But it went
along. The. President prosecuted
trusts; yes. indeed, he did. But he
j crushed only enough to talk about,
! Just before election time.
"To my mind trusts are tne main is
sue before the American people today.
They have developed and waxed strong
until they are entwined in legitimate
business and It Is too late for any
President to begin to thrust and cut
at random. The day of that sort of
harking passed during Roosevelt's
early presidential career. Now it Is
the subjoct for the most delicate of
surgerv that statesmanship knows. It
Is no Job for a rough rider. Roosevelt
preached against the trusts and urged
for their disruption, but he did not act.
"There was a formidable array of
district Attorneys and Attorneys Gen
eral to prosecute the trusts and there
were the statutes for them to enforce.
What a field this Nation would have
been for John Sherman, who had fore
Bight to see this growing monster, the
trusts. But now It is difforent. When
Roosevelt turned the office ovr to Taft
there were 10.020 trusts with a capi
talization of thirty-one billions of dol.
lars.
"The people were supporting many
millions of dollars worth' of watered
stock and Inflated bonds which had
been floated by these trusts. Roose
velt prepared a message to Congress,
which was sent out to all the news
papers of the country In advance. In
that was a paragraph In which prom
ise was made of a later message deal
ing with the reduction of the tariff.
When that advance copy got Into the
offices of the New York papers and
fell before the gaze of the money kings.
I presume there was a protest. At any
rate a few days later the newspapers
got notice to strike out the paragraph
of the message pertaining to the tariff
passage. Looked as though maybe
Roosevelt had seen some one in the
meantime, didn't HT
"To get down to bedrock, Roosevelt
Isn't, never was and never will be a
constructive statesman. He Is one of
the greatest moral agitators the world
has ever known. If I had been Presi
dent and had Roosevelt's chance, I
would have crushed this great monster
when It was a wriggling serpent.
"The first thing I would have done
would have been to call In all of the
District Attorneys of the United States
and give them each a copy of the
Sherman act. I would have presumed
that they had not seen It before, would
have given them 90 days to work in
and if there had been a trust in the
I'nlted States after that I'd have re
moved every man. They are talking
about my condition. Why, here a short
time ago a man named Pinchot do you
know him? came up Into Dakota and
started to preach against me. I was
surprised because I thought he would
preach for me. He explained it to the
people like this: "When you are run
ning a train and the engine gets dis
abled, you have to change engines.'
"I took up his trail In North Da
kota and demonstrated to the people
that my drive wheel were working
tine, my firebox was In good shape and
I had lots of sand In my sandbox. And
you see what happened in North Da
kota." After the meeting Senator La Fol
lette and the others of his party board
ed the train for Portland.

In recent advertising literature, the
Great Northern Railway calls attention
to the fact that a man and his wife may
obtain an aggregate of 800 acres of
homestead lands in Oregon without
cost. This can be done In the follow
ing manner:
A man is entitled to 320 acres under
the homestead act and 160 acres under
the desert land act or the timber and
stone act, a total of 40 acres. His
wife can take up 320 acres of desert
land or 160 acres of desert land and 160
acres of timber and stone land, giving
the couple a total of 800 acres.

coming Into the state are preparing
to take advantage of this liberal feat
