TTTE 3IORNTXG OKEGONTATT, MONDAY, OCTOBER ' 2, 1910. 'S HOLD Oil FIRST CAMPAIGN PHOTOGRAPH OF REPUBLICAN NOMINEES TAKEN TOGETHER. A - . l! HEW- JERSEY LOST Result of Primary Viewed. as Strong Indication of Re publican Victory. DEEP SIGNIFICANCE SEEN Martine Elected Over Concentrated Effort of Administration to Pun ish Sim for His Independ ence as Senator. CHICAGO, Oct. 1. (Special.) Re publican campaign managers attach great Importance to the result of the New Jersey senatorial primary and be lieve the showing made by the two parties is the last proof necessary to support their contention that New Jer sey, the home of President Wilson, will cast its vote for Hughes In November. The New Jersey primary was im portant for various' reasons. First, it was disclosed that each of the" two Re publican candidates for the senatorshlp received more votes than the combined vote cast for the two contenders for the Democratic nomination. Ordinarily primary totals are not particularly re liable Indicators, but in New Jersey there was a real contest in both par ties, and no disposition on the part of Democrats to vote in. the Republican primary, or vice versa. Party Strength Measured. Therefore, the New Jersey vote, to a reasonable extent, measured the strength of the two parties in the President's state, where national issues were involved, as they were in this contest. Republicans have been claiming Ne Jersey for Wilson since two years ago, when at the Congressional election it was demonstrated that the Republican party in the state was reunited, and when the Republicans in the off year elected eight of the 12 Representatives. in Congress, in face of the fact that extraordinary efforts- had been made to line up New Jersey as an indication of support of the President. The New Jersey primary in another way discloses the weakness of Presi dent Wilson in his own state. Senator Martine, who was openly opposed to the Administration, literally snowed under his Democratic opponent, John W. Wescott, who placed Woodrow Wil aon in nomination at Baltimore in 1912, and who renominated him at St. Luis last June. Wescott was the President's choice for Senator. Wilson Strong; for Wescott. How strongly the President desired the nomination of Wescott is shown in various ways. Back in June, the Democratic National Committee se lected Governor Fielder of New Jersey to make the nominating speech at St. Louis. President Wilson vetoed this choice, because he wished to aid Wes cott in every possible way in his fight for the Senatorial nomination and thought the honor of making the nom inating speech at the Democratic Na tional Convention would be of assist ance. When the President left Washington and went to Shadow Lawn, his private secretary, Joseph P. Tumulty, neglected his duties at the Summer White House to take direction of the campaign for Wescott and against Martine. Not only did Tumulty get into-the fight but he took into New Jersey some of the heavy Democratic artillery, which was lined up for the man of the President's choice. The organization made its ap peal solely for Wescott. Political Methods Illustrated. Senator Martine and ' his relations with the President are illustrative of the workings of Woodrow Wilson in the field of politics. Six years ago, when Wilson was Governor of New Jersey, Martine won the Democratic nomination for the Senate on a fluke. He was regarded in New Jersey as he tame later to be regarded in the Sen ate. In spite of that. Governor Wilson declared that the people must stand back of the pVimary choice. He lit erally forced the election of Martine as Senator. When Wilson became President, he expected that Martine would be-grateful and follow the Administration without question. Martine, when touched by the White House lash, balked. For his refusal to take dicta tion from the White House he was punished; the distribution of New Jer sey patronage was turned over to Sen ator Hughes. The President did everything In his power to defeat Martine. In face of this opposition, Martine gave the Pres ident's choice such an overwhelming beating aa to leave a big dent in the President' prestige in New Jersey. The result, of the New Jersey Sena torial primary is considered by Repub lican leaders as even more significant than the Maine election.

OPPOSITION IS EXPECTED now are riding as many as 50 horses a day. Instead of the -open range or the paddock, in view of cheering crowds, they ride in a narrow-roofed enclosure, with a critical inspector and one or two assistants the only spectators. Several mattresses are fastened at either end of the enclosure to soften the fall of an occasional fear-blinded animal and his rider. Several riders have been hurt and one recently was killed. The supply of "gun fodder," as the riders call the horses, seems unending. The standard of requirements was low ered somewhat when receipts began falling off, and horses are being ac cepted now that were rejected for merly. Shipments continue to be heavy, and weekly purchases often run into the thousands. ONE NAME COMES UP Appeal Says Precedent for Abandon ing Arbitration and Paying De-. manda by Special Iiegisla ' tion Has Been Set. NEW YORK." Oct. 1. Edward P. Rip ley, president of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railwtty .sent today to the stockholders of the company an appeal to them to work for the passage of remedial legislation to meet the situa tion created by the passage by Con gress of the eight-hour law at the de mand of the four railway brotherhoods. "Since the precedent of abandoning arbitration and hurriedly paying the demands of railroad unions by special constitutional enactment has been set," he says in his communication, "does it not behoove you to exercise your in fluence in favor of appropriate remedial legislation? "This aompany believes that the act which Congress has passed is uncon stitutional, and that steps should be taken to resist it in every lawful man ner." Mr. Ripley calls attention to the fact that the President recommended con sideration by the Interstate Commerce Commission of an increase in freight rates to meet the wage increase charge resulting, and also to prohibit strikes until investigation Is had. The brother hoods, he said, have made it clear they will resist such legislation. It appears, he says, that "until some remedial leg islation shall be adopted, the only way to avert tie-ups is for Congress to grant by special legislation whatever demands labor combinations mav insist upon as their price for permitting thei people to continue to enjoy railway transportation." HORSES IN BIG DEMAND SUPPLY FOR WAR USE, HOWEVER, SEEMS TJJfEJIDIXG. "Broncho-BoitlnK" Robbed of Glamour, and Riding of Monnta for Inspec tion Becomes Mere XJrudgcry. DENVER, Oct. 1. Continued demand for American horses y British and French governments for use on Euro pean battlefields has robbed "broncho busting" of its glamour '' and reduced that time-honored industry and fea ture of frontier celebrations to the level of mere drudgery. Hundreds of horses from all sections of the Rocky Mountain region are bought for European export at the Den ver stockyards daily, and many other hundreds are - rejected. Each animal must be mounted and ridden as part of the inspection, and noted riders from many Western states are employed in the work. Well-known "busters" who have won championships in the past SHOPMEN REJECT OFFER SIX UNI OA'S ON 20 WESTERN RAIL WAYS ARE INVOLVED. Companies Had' Offered Increase in Waves and Eight-Hour Day to Men ia Stationary Work. KANSAS CITY, Oct, 1. Eighty-five per cent of the 40.000 members of six railway shopmen's unions on 20 West ern railways, voted to refuse com promise proposals of the railroads to demands for an eight-hour day and a wage Increase of & cents an hour, tt was announced today. Further negotiations will be. held between the unions and the railroads. Seventy-five per cent of the union men are employed in stationary shop work and the other 25 per cent in re pairs to rolling stock. The compromise offer was said to have averaged an in crease of 2 hi cents an hour Jn wages and the granting of the eight-hour day to men employed in stationary work. The granting of this time schedule to the other men was withheld because the railroads contend a nine-hour day is necessary for satisfactory results in this branch of employment. WILSON CLUB IS FORMED Hood River Organization Starts With More Than SO Members. HOOD RIVER. Or, Oct, 1 (Special.)

BODY BURNED IN ROSIN Woman Shot and Strangled, Medical Reteree Find9. ... MOUNTAIN VIEW, N. H.. Oct, 1. An examination today by Medical Referee Home led to the discovery that the body of Mrs. Florence A. Small, which was found in the burned ruina of her home in Ossipee Friday, had been cov ered with rosin after she had been shot, beaten and strangled. Frederick L- Small, the woman's hus band, is in the Ossipee jail charged with murder. He will have a, hearing uciODer a. W. L. Brewster Suggested as Civil Service Commissioner. EARLY ACTION EXPECTED John F. Logan Criticises Mayor for Kemoavl or G. W. Caldwell, but Says That No Doubt His Motive Was Good. Who will succeed George W. Caldwell as chairman of the municipal civil serv ice commission? 1 The appointive power lies with Mayor Albee and the City Commissioners. They are expected to name a commit sloner early this week. The Mayor re moved Mr. Caldwell on Saturday be cause, he said, Mr. Caldwell's ideas are "not for the advancement of the civil Bervice." It is presumed, according to that, that the next -appointee will bear the qualification of entertaining views on civil service that coincide with those of the Mayor. Who will the Mayor suggest? The dismissal of Mr. Caldwell came so sud denly that attention has not yet focused itself upon any one in particular, but the finger of rumor is beginning to point in the direction of William L. Brewster. Mr. Brewster ls an ex-City Commis sioner. He was elected in 1913 and was defeated last year for re-election. It is understood that his views on civil service are along the same lines as those ot "hlzzonner. If -the Mayor suggests Mr. Brewster it will remain, however, for the other members of the Council to concur in the plan. It is believed that at least one other member would favor Mr. Brewster. So far as is known no mem ber is particularly opposed to him. bu it is possible that other names will be suggested. r The other members of the commis sion are John F. Logan, well-known at torney, and R. H. Thomas, clerk of the School Board. The board members re ceive no salary. "I considered Mr. Caldwell one of the most useful members that the board ever had," said Mr. Logan last night. I believe that the Mayor, while unquestionably sincere, has made a grave mistake. I fear that he will be unable to find anyone who will work as intelligently and as conscientiously for the good of civil service reform a Mr. Caldwell did. "I have given the civil service y tem considerable study ever since its adoption in 1903 first as a citizen and an attorney, and later as a member of the board. I am convinced that Mr. Caldwell entertains high ideals regard ing the administration of the civil service code. "I am sorry that the Mayor cannot appreciate the value of Mr. Caldwell's services. Of course. I know that the Mayor did what he thought was best for civil service." Mr. Caldwell, who was dismissed by the Mayor after the Mayor had asked him to ' resign, is not ready to make any comment on the situation, he said yesterday. It is probable, though, that ha will give the public his interpreta tion of , his misunderstanding with Mayor Albee before the week is out. H: t ??si : I MS 1 -1 ; ...
