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. Hence

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.

Th takinor of testimony In the Tan

o'clock yesterday afternoon. - Between

Attorney Collier made the opening ar
gument for the state, contending that

case of murder In the first degree and

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.

TAILORS IN TOILS
Suit Club Concern Charged
With Running Lottery.
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,
