RAIN DAMPENS ARDOR SPELLBINDERS FIXD DRIZZLE HOLDS BACK INTEREST. Walter H. Evans Scores Star Cham ber Sessions of Administration in Sell-wood Campaign. Street speakers, even had they in tended continuing the political cam paign on the favorite corners last night, were effectually dampened, as to their ardor, by a drizzle of rain that continued Intermittently throughout the evening. Politics upon the streets waa. accordingly, confined chiefly to a display of canvas banners upon tha automobiles that passed and repassed, soliciting, in bold type, the support of the voting men for this or that candi date. The only street meeting that defied the rainfall was an assembly of I. W. W. people upon Fourth and Alder, where C. B. Lewis, the agitator re cently returned from Aberdeen and Hoqulam, harangued against the meth ods that had been uaed in those places to quell the disturbances of the strik ers. This group, however, devoted none of Its time to political discussion. The bulk of the Interest of the voting public naturally centered In the La Follette meeting, while several smaller assemblies In me suburban districts were addressed by candidates for nomi nation In the coming primaries. Waiter H. Evans carried his cam paign Into Setlwood last night, where he addressed a gathering of a hundred or more. Mr. Evans dwelt upon the power that rests with the District At torney, which. If misused by an Ineffi cient or dishonest official, may warp or defeat the ends of Justice. If nomi nated and elected to the office, he pledged himself to strive for a fair and economical administration, with "no star chamber sessions, no men of Influence to save some 'higher up' from prosecution, and no Interests to listen to excepting the interests of the people at large."
