TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAN, TIIURSDAT, OCTOBER 22, 1914. PRINEVILLE OUT STRONG FOR BOOTH Republican Senatorial Candi date Addresses Throng for Three Hours x CANDIDATE IS - CHEERED ?Tominee Devotes Main Part of Talk to Great Resources or Oregon. Democratic Kale Is Blamed for Hard Times. PRINEVILLE, Or., Oct. 21. (Spe cial.) R. A. Booth held his first meet ing in this place tonight at the Com mercial Club hall where he addressed the largest audience that has attended a. political meeting here this year. The speaker was introduced by Mayor Clif ton. Bursts of applause punctuated the speech which lasted three hours. Mr. Booth .said in part: "I am here and stand for the ap plication and fullest use of Oregon's resources for Oregon people. The trail of the pioneers of the Northwest was And is marked by graves from the Mis souri River to the Pacific and this hearty and thrifty people suffered un told privation .and hardships during the early days in the settlement of this wonderful and resourceful land. Oregon's Resources Great "They found here vast forests which today represent one-fifth of the timber wealth of the world, and the most mag nificent water power and mineral land to be found in the world, to say nothing of the millions of acres of land that, under proper development, would make tiomes for a vast multitude of people. To these people, to their posterity, and to this state these combined resources belong, and any legislation and Con gressional delegation that provides, or permits, or countenances the diversion of these resources that are rightfully yours is wrong and should not be tol erated. "The issuance of bonds against these vast and undeveloped resources could make possible the reclamation of the land in this beautiful valley to the north of this place and other com munities and would make it one of the best places in the world to live in. Democratic Role Blamed. "The gardening, truck and fruit pos sibilities of this state- are enormous, and hl quantity of dairy products that we will be able to send into the market of the world, under the conditions which I have tjust described should be 100 times greater than what they are today. I am heartily in favor of any just legislation, but I feel that the land, the timber and other vast re sources of this country rightfully be long to this country and to no one else, and the laws and the people that divert these resources to other states are not to be tolerated. We will be recognized and our rights respected in this mat ter, and I fully hope and expect to be instrumental in bringing to this vast country the resources that are right fully ours." . Mr. Booth discussed the effect of the present protective tariff on the lumber and shingle industry of the state and pointed to the resultant shipment of foreign grain, butter, eggs and cloth ing into this country. He quoted sta tistics to show that much of the pres ent depression is due to the working of the Democratic tariff. jMr. Booth declares he has never been more enthusiastically received than in this part of the state. Large crowds are expected at the meeting tomorrow. The first meeting tomorrow will be held at the Crook County High School at 8:?0 o'clock A., M. and later meetings will be held at' Redmond, Sisters and Laidlaw, with a final rally for the day at Bend, where It is predicted a record-breaking crowd will greet the candidate. While in Prinev.IIe Mr. Booth is a guesht of Dr. Belknap. MADRAS WELCOMES MR. BOOTH Farmers and Townspeople Greet Candidate Heartily. MADRAS. Or., Oct. 21. (Special.) Ic. A. Booth arrived in Madras this morning on his first campaign trip Into Central Oregon. He was met by an enthusiastic crowd of Republicans and old-time friends, who knew him when he was in this section in the early "80s. A meeting at 11 o'clock was ar ranged at which Mr. Booth addressed 300 farmers and .townspeople, who lis tened attentively to-the candidate for an hour or more. The audience was vith Mr. Booth from the beginning and many of his remarks concerned local conditions and Oregon in general. The Madras High School furnished music for the meeting. A part of Mr. Booth'; speech was addressed to the students. He referred to the willingness of the people to pay their taxes for school purposes, and recounted the benefits to be derived from a better education on not only the growing generation, but the future. Relative to his campaign for the of fice of United States Senator he re ferred to the effect of the tariff on the native productions of Oregon, includ ing those cf the forest and the soil, and pointed "to the high prices the con sumer is compelled to pay through the middleman.- He said the farmer or pro ducer should receive a better price for his productions or else the consumer should pay less. Referring to reclamation for this Central Oregon country, he gave inter esting ideas, saying it could be ac complished by the sale of timber in the National forests of Oregon and by other means by the use of public funds. Many other points were brought out In his talk to the clearer understand ing of the audience, particularly his explanation of the charges made against his business life and his in tegrity. These, he said, he intended to refute again at a meeting in Portland Friday evening. He said he would give records and evidence concerning the different accusations made against him and leave it to the public to judge and draw its own conclusions as to who is in the right. Mr. Booth was congratulated by many of his hearers. He made many new friends at Madras by his frank and open way in meeting the people and In- setting forth his - platform to them as well as discussing the marry problems coming up in public me tnut aixect tne voter. Alter the meeting he was met by friends from Prineville, who escorted him to other points between here and that city. where he will address another audience of Central Oregon people. BOOTH'S GAIX IX BAKER BIG Sentiment Swings to Republican Since Chamberlain's Visit. BAKER, Or., Oct. 21. (Special.) last two weeks, a change materially in favor- of the candidacy of Senator Booth, according to tnose in close touch with the political status of the county. Two weeks ago there were few Republicans who wonld concede that Mr. Booth had a chance to do more than break even here, while Democrats were averring that their candidate for Senator, George Chamberlain, would pile up the greatest majority In the history cf the county. Since then, however. Senator Cham berlain has visited Baker and instant ly Democrats have begun to work feverishly, declaring to their known partisans that every effort must be used to prevent a victory for Mr. Booth in the county. That this change in belief has been wrought by Sena tor Chamberlain's visit to Baker and by his stand while here is the declara tion of Republicans. Republicans are now declaring that Mr. Booth's major ity in the county will be near S00, de spite the fact that registration in Ba ker County shows a surplus of Demo crats. That the vote on Governor in Baker County will be close is the declaration of leaders of both parties. Sentiment seems to be evenly divided, and Re publicans here believe that there should be active campaigning in this section to keep Dr. Withycombe before the people. Democrats are now en deavoring to get Judge Bennett here-) to campaign in the interest of Dr. C f. Smith. Through that part of Baker County known as the "Panhandle," the northeastern section of the -county, where there are many votes, there are several clubs actively at work for Dr. Smith. Republicans, however, are con fident that the vote in the city of Baker and in the Haines territory will offset any Democratic strength from the "Panhandle." . . Senator Chamberlain's loss of strength is attributed by Republicans to his failure to attempt to answer the questions which were put to him at the big mass meeting in Baker. They declare that the "gag rule" exer cised at the meeting, with Sheriff Rand and his deputies at hand to ar rest any who might question Senator Chamberlain, is the boomerang which will wipe out all chances of & Cham berlain victory here. Street gossip brings forth the fact that many avowed adherents of Sena tor Chamberlain have changed their views since hearing his address here last week. A sharp local campaign is being conducted for the office of State Sen ator with Frank B. Mitchell, the Re publican nominee, campaigning .as an advocate of the. "blue sky" law and on his record of aiding in putting the bill through the last Legislature, and W. H. Strayer, the Democratic nominee, avowedly opposing this law as being a needless burden on the taxpayers. The race promises to be a close one. That the Democrats will elect their candidates for County Clerk, Sheriff, County Judge and Representative to the Legislature is the general opinion. WEST LANK IS FOR BOOTH Chamberlain's Neglect of Interests in Sinslaw Work Resented. EUGENE, Or.. Oct. 21. (Special.) The solid support of the entire western end of Lane County, embracing the Port of Siuslaw, has been promised R. A Booth by representatives from that district who declare that the opposi tion to Senator Chamberlain Is intense as a result of the Senator's neglect of this territory. The Port of Siuslaw voted $100,000 bonds a year ago after it had already voted $210,000 for the construction of the Siuslaw jetty and -harbor improve ment. The election was carried and the bonds were sold on the assumption that the Government would replace the money voted by the community, dollar for dollar. The appropriation bore the recommendation of the Federal en gineers and Chamberlain ' procured the passage of a $5000 appropriation to match the people's 100,000. As a result of repeated demands two Booth rallies , will be held, one in Mapleton, at the head of tidewater. on Alonday, and the other in Florence. on the coast, Tuesday. Louis Bean, Joint Senator from Lane and Iirnn Counties, and E. J. Adams will go from Eugene to be present at these demonstrations. Elaborate plans are being prepared for the Booth enthusi asts on the coast to make these rous ing meetings. Next week two similar rallies will be held west of Eugene. One of these will be - at Alvadore, where Governor 'West acknowledged Booth's honesty, and the other at Elmira. A quartet from Eugene will form a feature at these meetings, which probably will be held on Tuesday night. CROWDS GREET JOHNSON CONGRESSMAN'S RETURN TRIUMPH EVERYWHERE HE GOES. . Band and Neighbors Welcome Repre sentative and Give Dinner in ills Honor at lloqnlam Hotel. HOQUIAM, Wash.; Oct. 21. (Special.) Fully 400 men and women sat at a re ception dinner tonight at the Hotel Grayport, to Congressman Albert John son," on the occasion of his return from Washing-ton, IX -C after an absence of nearly two years.. The reception is undoubtedly one of the .largest . ever held in Southwest Washington to a public official, and was the largest of the kind ever held on Grays Harbor by big odds. Congressman Johnson was met at the union passenger station by a crowd of 1000, headed by a band, and given an ovation as he stepped off the train at Hoquiam. Beginning at Tacoma, his return to his district was a continual round of ovations, for at every stop there was a crowd out to see him, notably at Olympla, where the train was .held for a short address by Mr. Johnson. It is safe to say no Congressman of the Northwest ever received a more en thusiastic greeting on his return home than has Congressman Albert Johnson. From the depot tonight Mr. Johnson and his family were escorted by the band and citizens to the Hotel Gray port. Dinner started at 7:30 o'clock and the programme of speaking at about 9 o'clock. Delegations were present from Tacoma and every city or town of Che- halis County. A number of short ad dresses and musical numbers were fol lowed by a speech by Congressman Johnson. James H. Davis, representing the Tacoma Commercial Club, delivered an address. At Olympia 500 persons were at the train and he delivered a 15-minute ad dress. At Elma, a big delegation was out, headed by a band. Mr. Johnson leaves tomorrow .for an automobile tour of the country and - will be at Olympia during the - early ' afternoon going from there to Tacoma, where he will be a speaker at a dinner to be given by the tjnamoer oz commerce to morrow night. - Letters of Founder Wanted.

It means during the past several weeks we have sold by more than three times over the number of pianos sold throughout the entire all other piano Prosperity Is Here Now and This Proves It. When our final showinsr was marie up by the auditor, we found that during this last September we have enjoyed the greatest selling record ever known since the .establishment of Eilers Music House manv vears ago, and to say that we are proud is putting it very mild, for we have every reason to be, and to think that October so far is now ahead of Sep tember. This means that by the end of October it will far exceed our greatest of all records. September, ivxi, double-quick piano selling has made it possible for lis to Gji(nni through the manufacturers' represen tatives, Messrs.

CANDIDATE - LOSES SUIT Opinion Vets, Forth That Vote Is to Ascertain if Official Is to Bo I Ousted and That Query Is Proper Course.' SALEM, Or Oct. 21. (Special,) In an opinion by Justice .Burnett, the Su preme Court today held that the ques tion, "Shall H. R.. Albee be recalled from the office of Mayor?" should be on the ballot in the coming recall elec tion in Portland, and dismissed the suit of Eugene E. Smith, candidate for Mayor, to compel A. L. Barbur, Auditor, to have the clause stricken out. It was contended by the plaintiff that only the names of the candidates sliould appear on the ballot and that if the clause objected to were allowed also it would be possible for Mr. Albee to be re-elected, and at the same time re called. Question I Vital. Regarding this phase of the question the opinion says: "In our Judgment the simple and natural construction of this section is that in such instances there are two questions to be decided by the elec torate. First, the principal one of whether the people will recall said of ficer, and the second, of who shall be his successor, which is subsidiary and eonditional upon the determination of the first adversely to the incumbent or the office. The essence of the section is the recall of an officer. This accomplished.- and not until then, it be comes necessary to consider who shall take his place, and this is determined by the selection of one from- among whatever number of candidates may offer themseles for the place. The fact that both these questions are to be settled at the same election does not destroy their natural sequence. The people are entitled to vote directly upon the unadulterated question of recalling an incumbent of a public position. This is the manifest intention of the lan guage requiring a special election 'to determine wnetner tne people win re call said officer.' It does not neces sarily follow that there will be candi dates at such an election, "and the right of the people to exercise this pre rogative cannot be made to depend upon the. mere avidity of possible can didates for the office. Paradox la Possible. "It Is nosslble that in the election. so far as the candidates are concerned, the plurality of votes., although a very small minority of the total, may go to the individual who first held the office in question: for he, like any other citi zen, is eligible, as a candidate. Thus the paradox may happen that the recall will m effect defeat itself. Be this as it may, still if we were to attend xmly to the choice among numerous candi dates, no direct expression would be given to the will of the people as to whether the Incumbent officer was de serving of censure and dismissal. It is also contended that the ballot m its proposed form will entail additional expense. This, however. Is one of th burdens which must be borne by those who pay the taxes in Government by election. The demurrer Is sustained and the cause dismissed." DECISIOX ITCRRIES BALLOTS Printer Ordered to Rush Forms and Election Expenses Are Met. When word was received yeterday by City Auditor Barbur that the State Supreme Court refused to grant the request of E. E. smith, recall canal date for Mayor in the proposition of changing the Albee-Dieck-Brewster. re call ballot form, he instructed the printer to rush the ballots and to de We Repeat; this month (October) is going merchants combined. . coming through, for when pianos are started in the factory it takes a long time to bring them through, a finished product, and the great wheels cannot stopped at " a moment's notice hence the opportunity for purchasing large quantities of thoroughly re liable standard made pianos at ex ceptionally low prices. It is agreed that for every' two pianos now sold by the manufacturers' rep resentatives, the Eilers Music House buys three more surplus pianos, for immediate shipment, and included in this gale are the costliest instruments taken over from the Soule Bros. Fail ure Sale. The cheaper pianos were all sold by Mr. Lucore. at 388 Morrison St., where, by order of the court, the sale was conducted by him to ob tain the money for the creditors at the earliest possible moment. A great many of the makes now advertised come from this stock and nearly every piano is a brand-new one, although a few, which are slightly shopworn or used, are in the very best and guar anteed condition. We shall sell every instrument in this entire lot before the great sale closes, but the end will come very quickly.

Sample ballots in the form which were at tacked by the recallers were taken from the corridor of 'the City Hall early in the 'rooming, but-were put back again when the court ruled that they were in proper form. City Attorney LaRoche said yesterday that the recallers in their move showed their lack of faith in . the willingness of the public to recall . the officials attacked. "The recall amendment to the state constitution," he saia, "clearly provides that the voters shall vote on the ques tion. 'Shall the official be recalled T The recallers, who pose as the champions of the people, were unwilling to let the people decide this. They wanted the officials automatically recalled, by rea son of the filing of recall petitions. This certainly is not the intent of the law. . "Mr. Smith, the recall candidate for Mayor, made a number of uncalled-for statements against me and the men the recallers are attacking. I .think the Supreme Court decision answers these charges, when . it Fays there is no ground for the recallers' contention re garding the ballot form." The City Commission yesterday passed an emergency ordinance appro priating $25,000 from the general fund to pay the cosfof the recall election. An ordinance was passed also appoint- ng judges and clerks of the election. The list, of judges and clerks is the same as those for the state election. SENATOR AT MEDFORD 150O HEAR CiLMBERLAIVS SPEECH ... AT S'ATATORllM. Orator Praises Administration and Bases Plea for Re-election on His Harmony With Wilson.' MEDFORD, Or., Oct. 21. (Special.) United States Senator Chamberlain addressed 1500 persons at the Natatori um tonight on campaign issues and an enthusiastic reception was accorded the senior Senator from Oregon. Attorney Porter J. Neff introduced Senator Chamberlain, and prominent local Democrats occupied seats on the plat form. Senator Chamberlain devoted most of his talk to a defense of the Adminis tration, its policies and its legisla tion. He said the removal of the tariff on ggs and butter had no effect on these commodities in this, section, as at present we - are shipping in eggs and butter from the Middle West.' The Chinese egg scare he termed a "false alarm." In praise of the new banking law, he said, it was a cure-all 'for panics and that once it began to work In. good shape there would be no more trouble with money stringencies. The orator based his plea for re election on. his perfect accord with Wilson and Bryan. Before the meeting pamphlets containing questions direct ed at Senator Chamberlain were diT tributed by Republican agencies and the Senator answered them in a gen eral way. In the afternoon Senator Chamber lain addressed a large crowd at Ash land. He will speak at Jacksonville, Gold Hill and Grants Pass Thursday. Insurance Commission Sues- Three- CENTRALIA.

COTJON RELIEF DEFEATED Increased Tax on Tobacco Men Is Agreed To With Few Exceptions and Stamp Taxes Are. Per mitted to Stand. WASHINGTON, Oct. 21. Agreement on the "war revenue" bil was reached late today by Senate and House confer ences at a sacrifice of from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 in revenue proposed to be derived. At the last moment-the con ferees eliminated the proposed amend ments to the liquor taxes, rejecting the Senate amendments to increase the tax on beer from $1.50 to $1.75 a barrel and to impose a tax of 5 cents a gallon on rectified Bpirits. In sacrificing these amendments the conferees made no substitute. Repre sentative Underwood's proposel to re store the tax of 2 cents a gallon on gasoline as contained in the House bill having been rejected by the Senate con ferees. This action fixed the estimated annual revenue at approximately $90. 000,000 instead of $105,000,000, as con templated In the Senate bill. Early Adjournment Probable. Throughout the day the conferees fought over the liquor tax and gasoline amendments, the compromise proposal having been carried to the President by Senator Simmons and Representative Underwood. Final agreement, however, paved the way for early adjournment of Congress and leaders in both houses tonight planned to expedite adoption of the re port, so that the session might be ended tomorrow night. The agreement will be reported to the House at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and will be taken up in the Senate immediately after the House acts: . Cotton legislation met defeat in the House while the war revenue confer ence was in progress, the measure to provide for a quarter of a billion addt tional currency through the Issuance of United States notes on Panama Canal bonds being rejected by- a vote of 123 .to 91. Beer Rebate Eliminated. The war revenue bill agreement fixed the tax on beer at $1-60 a barrel, with the Senate amendment for a 6 per cent rebate for prompt payment eliminated. The Senate amendment reducing the proposed tax on bank capital and Bur plus from $2 to $1 a thousand .was re tained. The Senate proposal to tax domestic sweet and dry wines 8 cents a gallon, with a tax of 55 cents a gal lon -on brandies used in the fortifica tions of wines, also was retained. The Senate amendment increasing the tax on tobacco manufacturers and dealers was agreed to with few exceptions and the stamp taxes were not disturbed. Stock brokers will be taxed $30 a year Instead of $50. The graduated tax on theaters also was changed slightly, the final rates being as follows: ' Theaters with a seating capacity of 2a0 or less wil pay $2a a year. 500 ca pacity $50, 800 capacity $75, more than 800 capacity $100 a year. - Cotton Relief Denied. Southern members of the House fought strenuously but in vain for the bill which would have authorized a de posit in National and state banks in cotton and tobacco states of $2a0.000, 000 in Government funds. Chairman Glass, of the banking and currency committee. Republican Leader Mann and others in opposition on both sides-declared the cotton plan was ut terly unsound" and would contract the credit' of the South rather than expand it.
