o TTTK MORNING OREGON! AN, SATURDAY, . SEPTEMBER 21, 1912. c . i : i ' SELLING PLEASED WITH RECEPTION Spellbinding Not Attempted ; Voters Are Told Plainly What to Expect. CANDIDATE CITES RECORD Sixteen Years' Experience in Iiegis lature rrged as Proof of Pro gressive Principles if Doubted oy Any. Rpn Selllnir. Drosrresslve Republican nominee for United States Senator, who . maifino- a trio through various tsi- ern Oregon counties, reports that he Is meeting with much encouragement In his candidacy for the senaiorsmp. air. Selling- passed several days in Wallowa, and Baker counties, where he met many people. Yesterday he was in Union County. On these visits Mr. Selling inei not essav any spell-blndlng ora tory, but plainly tells the voters what they may expect or mm as a pum.u servant if elected. He refers to his past performances as a consistent pro-; gressive as a guarantee that he will "make good" on all promises as United States Senator. Upon reaching Umatilla County Mr. Selling will be Joined by Judge Stephen A Lowell, of Pendleton, who will ac company the Senatorial candidate through that section of the state. Judge Lowell was one of Mr. Selling's opponents for the Republican nomina tion, but he is supporting Mr. Selling strongly and, if possible, will visit other sections of the state next month In behalf of Mr. Selling's candidacy. Accord ! Cited. In an interview at La Grande Mr. Selling said: "I am proud to Bay that as a Repub lican I have been in the Oregon Legis Jature off and on for 16 years. In that time It was my pleasure and duty to aid In originating and writing upon the statute books of this state such progressive measures as the Australian ballot law, the direct primary law, the Initiative and referendum, the recall, the Presidential preference primary law and many other reform measures which have given to the people their rights. These measures have taken Oregon from under machine control and placed the nominating machlnei-y in the hands of the people, where it belongs. I have been at this work for 16 years, laboring consistently for everything that would bring about the present Oregon system. This being true and a matter of record, my contention Is that myself and others who worked with me are the true progressives of Ores'"1- , "Republican Party Progressive." "Last Spring at the primaries in Ore gon the Republican party was the pro gressive party. As the Senatorial nom inee of the party I was progressive and I have not ' changed. When I signed the acceptance, as all candidates must' do under the primary law, I subscribed my name and my honor to an agreement that I would not with draw and that I would support the Re publican ticket. This agreement is plainly written In black and white and there is no chance for a doubt under the law as to its meaning. That agree ment was signed by me in the same good faith that obtained when I signed Statement No. 1 as a candidate for State Senator In Multnomah County, and. although a Republican. I honored the Statement No. 1 agreement with the people and voted in the Legislature for George Chamberlain, a Democrat, for United States Senator from Ore gon. The two agreements are equal in weight, equal In obligation. Oregon's Growth Cited. "The people of Oregon do not have to guess as to my progressive work. It is an open book. It Is recorded in the statute books of our state. It is proven at every election when the voter enjoys the privacy of the Aus tralian ballot one of my first fights was made to secure this law when he marks his ballot for his preference of officials, thus doing the nominating himself Instead of having central com mittees and conventions do it for him; when he reads over the initiative and referendum measure all of these were made possible by the work of some of us who fought for them when it was unpopular to do so; when It required some self-sacrifice to go against the strong machine which controlled Ore gon, a machine that reached into every comer of this state. "Judge your progressive candidates by what they have done, by their records as progressives, and I shall be perfectly satisfied with the verdict ex pressed by the people next November." Elector loyal to Tart. In a letter addressed to National Committeeman Williams and State Chairman Moores, of the Republican party, M. J. MacMahon. one of the five nominees for Presidential elector, yes terday unqualifiedly declared he would support Taft and Sherman. If elected, lie confesses an admiration for Roose velt but. In view of the fact that Taft was fairly' nominated, believes the Bull Moose leader has made a serious mis take in forming a new party. Mr. MacMahon's father was one of the founders of the Republican party at Jackson, Mich., and the son says that, with only an occasional lapse, he has been a consistent Republican all his life. SEWER PROTEST FAILURE Marqnam Estate Owns 70 Acres and Project Will Be Costly. The protest of the Marquam estate against the Grub Gulch sewer project received scant consideration at the hands of the sewer and drainage com mittee of the City Council yesterday morning, the remonstrance being over ruled without a dissenting vote. The Grub Gulch sewer is a necessity for sanitary reasons and for the pro tection of the new South Portland park and play grounds," said Councilman Menefee, chairman of the committee. "We have had many reports from the sanitary inspectors regarding the cess pool menace In that section. The sewer la necessary to take care of the waters of Marquam Creek, preventing the flooding of the new park." The Marquam remonstrance fixes the cost of the sewer work in the 70 acres owned by the estate at from IT000 to $10,000 for 2000 feet. NOMINEES ARE QUESTIONED Bull Moose Leaders Start "Smoking Out" All Candidates. Preliminary to holding a county con vention about October 1, the "smoke 'em out" committee of the Bull Moose organization has composed a letter which has been mailed to all candidates for county and legislative offices on the Republican and Democratic tickets. The purpose of the letter is to ascertain direct from these' candidates where they stand with regard to the Roose velt Progressive party, more particu larly with reference to the principles it enunciates. The letter does not undertake to re quire the candidates to pledge them selves to vote for Roosevelt for Pres ident, but It does make perfectly plain that before any candidate, nominated by 'either of the two old parties, can expect to receive the Indorsement of the Bull Moose organization, he must subscribe to the principles presented in its platform. A copy of the platform adopted by the new party was enclosed with each letter, which concluded with the fol lowing query: "Do yon believe In the principles em bodied in this platform, and will you aid In carrying them Into effect? You will note we are not asking your atti tude on any candidate, as we feel we have no moral or legal right to Insist that the test of your loyalty to our platform shall be your vote for a par ticular man. Moreover, might we sug gest that the doubt concerning the attitude of candidates on Issues prom inent in the campaign is by no means confined to us, but Is seen In all par ties. Our people will meet soon In county convention, and will aim to support men In the field about whose position there can be no doubt.

Thua trade rises superior to international prejudices. OWNER TO BE HELD H. M. Esterley, Governor's Vice Agent, Makes Move. NEW ORDINANCE WANTED Property Holders to Be Made Re sponsible for Policing of Their Buildings and Names Must Appear Thereon. The centering of the vice crusade .amnftts-n UDon the owners of tne ttmieAa .miiinr ii vi nn tne criminal trl Ity prostitution. Illegal liquor selling ana gambling now unaer im " the . crusaders, was scheduled .to open yesterday morning before the' City Council health and police committee. The members of the vice commission, Mrs. XV. S. Powell, Who Was 7S together with H. M. Esterly, Governor West's special prosecutor, appeared in advocacy of the proposed license com pelling all property-owners to place their names on the buildings, but the matter was postponed when the com mittee failed to gather a quorum. "We are goingto make the property owner responsible for the policing of his property, and If he does not correct, the evils after they are pointed out to him an injunction will be secured In the Circuit Court compelling him to abate a public nuisance. If he still falls to comply he will be in contempt of court and punished accordingly," said Mr. Esterly. in summing up the plan of attack. Owner Is Responsible. "Ordinarily the property -owner rec ognizes only one duty of his tenant, and that is the paying of rents. Neither he nor the tenant recognizes the duty owed the community, and that Is the one we are going to compel obe dience to. "This matter will be taken up In fairness to all concerned and the owner given every opportunity to comply with the law before the courts are resorted to. He will be Informed of the prac tice of prostitution, liquor selling or gambling on his premises and asked to have it stopped. Should he fail to comply, an Injunction will be "secured in the Multnomah County Circuit Court requiring him to abate a public nui sance. Failure in the second Instance will place him In contempt of court and subject him to the punishment pre scribed by law. - "We do not plan to close these places or subject the owner to any unneces sary publicity, but the law must be obeyed, and it is strictly up to him if he persists In winking at the prac tices investigation has shown to . be so common. Name of Owner Wanted. "The object of the ordinanoe re quiring the names of owners on build ings is that we can proceed against them without the expenditure of time and money' necessary to discover who the owners are. It requires as much investigation of the records in many cases to discover the owner of a house as it does to secure the evidence of wrongdoing on the premises.. The lot and block numbers must be discovered and then the matter placed In the hands of an abstract company to dis cover the owner. "If the owner of a property is forced to place his name on it he will surely exercise more diligence in seeing that no violations of the law are permit ted. . As It is now. the property Is often in the hands of tenants three or four times removed from the owner, and he pays no attention to It so long as the rents are paid promptly." ' TANNER CASE NEAR END TESTIMONY 'IN MURDER TRIAL IS CONCLUDED. Prisoner "Sasses" Prosecutor and Is Firm Under Cross-Examination. Girl Blamed. . Th takinor of testimony In the Tan ner murder trial was concluded at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. - Between . 1. .. tma. nn AVTnpV Tpniltv District Attorney Collier made the opening ar gument for the state, contending that the prosecution naa maae out a ticai case of murder In the first degree and ii...Jtni, that th, Inrnrfl ,1l!initl8f with sentiment and return a verdict of guilty as charged in tne lnaictment. Court will convene at 9 o'clock this ! r TXT r f umnhull nnrt J, T . Hammersley' will argue in behalf of the defendant and JJeputy uistrict At torney Fitzgerald will close for- the state. The case probably will reach the Jury some time this afternoon. At yesterday's session the defendant was put through a severe cross-examination on the story he told on the stand Thursday exonerating himself. Mr. Fitzgerald did the questioning and he was careful to make his attacks partic ularly strofrg on the portions of the narrative which sounded most Improb able. Tanner "sassed" his cross-ex- ..1'O.n 1 f TT1 B hilt A Tl TT1 U ( P H faithful to his story, proving that. If not true it had at least been well re hearsed. The prosecutor's language was biting and sarcastic at times and the defendant resented the utter dis belief of his story, which Mr. Fitzgerald did not try to conceal. The latter is expected to devote a great deal of his argument today to pointing out the weak, and Improbable portions oi ian ner's testimony. Hazel Erwin was called by the state to rebut the defendant's story. She was asked a great many questions by the Jurors, many of them in condemna tory tones, but in no particular did she vary from the testimony which she gave at both her own trial and that of Tanner. Although some of the queries must have hurt, she answered promptly and tried to shield neither herself nor Tanner. Others called in re buttal were Mr. and Mrs. Lee Erwin, parents of Hazel Erwin. They contra dicted the statement made by Tanner in a letter to his mother in Linton, Ind, begging for financial assistance, that he was so disgusted with Hazel trwin that he would no longer occupy the same room with her. The two had passed two weeks at the Erwin farm near Thomas, Or., before coming to Portland last May. On cross-examination yesterday Tan ner was even more emphatic, because of the goads of Mr. Fitzgerald, in lay ing the entire blame on the woman. He said she had lured him away from the Army, had stolen $120 belonging to. a mutual friend, and without his knowledge about the time they started from San Francisco for Oregon. She was entirely responsible, in short, for leading him astray, he said. He pic turned himself as a man o? good ln tentions, but poor resolution, who was infatuated with and unable to resist her. IS SINGLE MOOSE CONVERT COM MANDS ATTENTION. Arbitration Urged as Means of Ar riving at General Estimate of Delegates to Chicago. Charles B. Moores, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, finds It difficult to refer to the' Bull Moose organization without becoming sarcastic His sarcasm again asserted Itself yesterday, when he was asked the day's developments at Taft head quarters. "Nothing today," replied Mr. Moores, "except we note, from an interview with the chairman at the Bull Moose headquarters, that there is great en thusiasm over there because of the ac cession of another Demoorat. That makes two in two weeks. No other ac cessions noted. They seem to have heard nothing from Michigan, Kansas, Colorado, Washington and California, where the results Indicate a gradual collapse of the Roosevelt movement all along the line. Their enthusiasm over these two converts Is almost pathetic. "We are sorry to see that our ordi narily genial friend. Senator Joseph, had another attack of rabies this week at the Salem Bull Moose convention. He roasted Judge Carey, H. C. Campbell, Thomas McCusker, Dr. J. N. Smith and FredS. Bynon for their acts as dele gates at Chicago. This attack was ap plauded by a convention that was try ing to devise a scheme by which Taft voters would be cheated out of the right to name their own electors. "There should be some way to arbi trate this unpleasant controversy. The delegates thus attacked stand as high in their respective communities In which they have passed their entire lives as any other five men Senator Joseph can pick out of the convention that applauded his sentiments." LAKE PATROL STARTS GAME WARDEN OPENS WAR ON DUCK LAW VIOLATORS. Deputies Go After Convictions on Bass Seining Statute Incoming Shipments Watched. Game Warden Flnley has acquired a high-powered motorboat for patrollng the duck lakes In the Columbia Klougn, and placed the boat in operation yes terday. The boat Is manned by three men. They will be on duty day and night to stop violations of the duck- shooting law. There has been a practice of hunters stealing out in the night and shooting birds out of season, and also of killing more than the limit allowed. The game warden and his deputies feel that they can effectively stop the Illegal killing of the game birds, or, at least, curb it. They were handlcappid last year by not having a boat of this kind. The deputies also will endeavor to secure convictions of those who have been seining for bass contrary to law. For some time shipments of bass have been coming into Portland consigned to retailers, and the game warden's force has been seizing a large number of shipments and placing them in cold storaee. They are going to seize every one dlsoovered coming Into the city, and If it Is said that the fish are caught with hook and line in accordance with law, It will have to be proved. Although it Is known beyond a rea sonable doubt that the majority of the fish being shipped in have been caught by seining, yet the officers have not been able to catch the criminals in the act, and a strenuous effort Is to be made to secure convictions. True sportsmen have expressed their grat ification at the action of tne officials, and are co-operating with them. W. H. LUCAS' FUNERAL HELD Leading Sportsmen of the Coast ' Honor Great Organizer.

DENIALS ARE OF NO AVAIL Police Investigate "Combine" on Complaint of Numerous Citi zens and Arrests of Its Operators Follow. i Operators and agents of the Great Northern Tailors' Combine, with offices and shops in the Swetland building, were placed under arrest yesterday afternoon on the charge of running a lottery and visiting a lottery,-respect ively. The charge of running a lot tery was placed against the tailors, Samulo and Lambe, and the charge of visiting a lottery was. placed against the collectors and agents for the rea son they were not partners In the business. The arrest Is the outcome of com plaints from residents In different parts of the city from whom the com bine had collected money ana wno reported the matter to the police for Investigation. Patrolmen In different sections of the city have been bring ing reports to headquarters for some time relative to the operations of the concern, and the authorities have been quietly Investigating, with the result that they are satisfied that the tai loring company is running a lottery, contrary to law. The company sent out agents to call at the different houses, leaving num bered tickets saying there would be another agent around soon to notify them whether or not they had been chosen members of its "advertising cir cle." A few days later, say the re ports, the other agent would call at the houses visited previously, notify the residents they had been elected to membership, and would collect a aoi lar from each person, stating they were to pay $1 each week for 18 consecutive weeks. There was to be a drawing ach week, when the person holding a luckv number would be given a suit without additional payments. They were further told that at the end of the 18 weeks every member would re ceive a suit anyhow, valued at $35. The combine claims It is following this line of business as an advertise ment, that the company itself elects those to whom suits will be presented and that they have had no Intention of running a lottery game. The police have collocted contracts, numbered tickets and other literature pertaining to the scheme as evidence against the tailors. The bail of the principals was first placed at $260 each, two of the agents at $50 each and one at 100. However, they were released afterwards on their recognizance to appear for trial later MALTREATMENT IS DENIED Governor Osborn, of Michigan, Ex plains Conditions in That State. Denial of gross cruelty to prisoners in the Michigan penal Institutions Is contained in the answer of Governor Chase S. Osborn to a letter from his friend, F. G. Flower, .of Portland. He says that as an experiment corporal punishment was abolished at the Jack son Penitentiary and an attempt made to control the prisoners with reason. This led to the prisoners actually con trolling the prison management within a few months, and It was found nec essary to return to corporal punian- ment to maintain discipline, wnipping being done with a wide perforated leather paddle. No marks are left on tne ooayi ana It is ainiDlv a spanking such as any wise mother gives an unruly and dis obedient child, emphasized in severity in proportion, as the man is bigger than the child. There are only two ways of ruling anything or anybody. One is through reason ana the otner is force. Reason has been tried ana found ineffective at Jackson, and now force will be used as a medium for practical reasoning that will follow, says the Governor.

We know of no other medicine which has been so successful in relieving the suffering of women, or received so many genuine testimonials, as has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. In nearly every community you will find women who have been restored to health by this famous medicine. Almost every woman you meet knows of the great good it has been doing among Buffering women for the past 30 years. In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seek ing health, in which many openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia E.
