'Past Commanders Cheered at
Campfire for Impassioned
-Denunciations.
NO HUN AT PEACE TABLE
Germany Should Bo Left Xo Choice
but to Comply With Allied
Term or Go on Fighting,
Says Corporal Tanner.
Xeen-seated hatred for Ua Satanic
majesty," tba Kaiser, and his armed
hosts of despollera of women and chil
dren waa rolced In speech, story and
aotia- at the annual camp lire of the G.
A. R. at the Auditorium - last night.
And there were no vacant aeata at tbat
Intensely patriotic demonstration. An
overflow meeting of several hundred
persons at the entrance to the building;
was addressed by Mayor Baker, Samuel
R. Van ant. ex-Governor of Minnesota
and Past Commander-in-Chief of the
G. A. and Colonel C Garrigus; an
ex-Confederate of this city.
"When I think of the unbelievable
Crimea of which the Kaiser has been
guilty, I sometime wonder that a
righteous God has not consigned him
and his murderous cohorts to the most
orthodox Hell that is known, and con
demned them to overlastiag damna
tion," declared Corporal James Tanner,
of New Tork, a Past Commander-in-Chief
of the National organisation, who
was one of the speakers at the main
meeting. This observation was cheered
thunderously by an aroused audience
which was composed chiefly of the
comrades with whom he fought in the
"War of the Rebellion.
Tatea Saved la ,60a.
T will not say that yon men fought
better or more nobly In the 'COs than
ear boys are today fighting on the
Flanders field." he added, "but, if it
had not been for your work then there
would not have been a republic of the
United States and the opportunity af
forded today for this republio to take
its place in the front ranks of the na
tions in the present world conflict for
humanity and a permanent worldwide
democracy.
Generous words of praise were paid
the American forces in France, whose
highest ambition, testified the speaker,
waa "to measure up to the standards
set by their daddies in the 'SOs." An
ticipating the time when terms of
peace are to be made. Corporal Tanner
said he would deny to the Kaiser a seat
at the council table and would give to
the allies the duty of formulating plans
for a world peace, leaving to Germany
the only alternative of accepting and
living up to those conditions or to be
confronted by a renewal of the war un
til its boasted military organization
met with complete elimination.
German Language for Hell.
"There has been some controversy In
some of the states as to whether the
teaching of German should be barred
from our schools," continued the vigor
ous veteran, "but I am of the opinion
that any language that produces a peo
ple so lost to all sense of humanity is
a "kultur" the United States can well
do without. I am perfectly willing that
is) should be the only language spoken
in hell."
Equally impassioned addresses teem
ing in patriotic sentiment were deliv
ered by Judge Leo Rassieur. of Mis
souri, and Washington Gardner, of
Michigan, both past commanders of th
National organization. This formal
programme was modified sufficiently
to permit two old veterans to speak or
read some verses in which the Kaiser
was further denounced.
C G. Burton, of this city, was chair
man. and the musical part of the pro
gramme was contributed by the Rosar
ian Band, Professor Frederick W.
Goodrich, Mrs. Fred I Olson, Mrs.
taisy Wells and Dr. Stuart McGuire.
Only patriotic numbers were sung, in
clndlng "The Battle Hymn of the Re
public." "Marching Through Georgia.'
"The S tar-Spangled Banner" and "Keep
the Home Fires Burning." with "Annie
Laurie" as an encore by Mrs. Olson,
The audience was dismissed after sing
ing "America.

Neutrality Case.
Captain T. A. Anderson, who had
signed up with the sea service bureau
to command the Salmon, a steam vessel
now under construction for the Ship
ping Board, resigned yesterday to go
to San Francisco to answer charges of
violating the neutrality act. The
charges grew out of the famous trip
of the Sacramento three years ago to
supply German raiders off the South
American coast.
Sailing from San Francisco as cap
tain of the Sacramento, the name of
which had been changed to the Alex
ander, Mr. Anderson was deposed by
the mate, a pro-German, who showed
papers of supercargo from the owners.
Swayne & Wright Company, according
to Information received by Lieutenant
Harold Jones, of the sea service bu
reau. -
me coarse of the vessel then was
changed from Valparaiso to the Juan
rernandes Islands, off the Chilean
coast. This was the island picked by
Defoe as the home of Robinson Crusoe.
At this island the German raiding
cruisers Dresden and Lelpslc, which
terrorised South Paclfio waters for
some time at the beginning of the Eu
ropean war. were met. and the cargo
turned over to them, according to ac
counts brought back by Captain Ander
son and his crew, who later were land
ed In Chile.
Indictments were returned against
captain Anderson and the crew, chars;
lng them with violating the neutrality
laws. The trial was held up for some
time. Meanwhile the captain had gone
to Alaska to engage in fishing.
He returned to Portland only recent
ly to take - command of the Salmon.
Yesterday he learned that the case was
scheduled for immediate hearing. He
resigned his commission and went to
answer the charges.

FLAG IGNORER IS HIT
James L Hall Forced to Salute
"Old Glory" at Parade.
HAT KNOCKED: FROM HEAD
Later He Avoids Fine by Paying $35
to Belgian Baby Fund Another
Assessed $5 Third Is Held
for Federal Inquiry.
When gray-haired veterans of the
O. A. R- pass along in review; with Old
Glory floating proudly above them, the
least that a spectator can do is to iut
his hat as a mark of reverence as well
as patriotism.
That is the view taken by Municipal
Judge Rossman when he heard evidence
against three men who found their way
to police headquarters yesterday after
the parade.
James L. Hall, an employe of the Pa
cific Telephone & Telegraph Company,
who failed to salute the flag as the
veterans passed him at Broadway and
Alder street, escaped being; fined on a
charge of disorderly conduct by agree
ing: to give S35 to trie fund for tbe re
lief of Belgian babiea.
Hall had disregarded repeated re
quests from the spectators to remove
his hat while the flag was passing.
Finally James J. Richardson, sporting
editor of The Oregon lan, insisted to
Hall that "a better spirit of patriotism
should be shown, but when the colors
again appeared in the line of march
Hall still stood with head covered. A
controversy followed, and Mr. Rich
ardson finally struck Hall and knocked
off his hat.
E. O. Amine, Deputy Constable and
tnjjloy. of the. Portland Railway. Light
& Power Company, who had witnessed
the incident from an upper floor of
the Electrlo building, caused the ar
rest of Richardson on an assault and
battery charge. Hall waj confronted
at the police station with a disorderly
conduct complaint. Several well-known
citizens testified at the hearing, all of
them sustaining Mr. Richardson, who
was exonerated by Judge Rossman.
Hall contended that his apparent lack
of patriotism was due to thoughtless
ness. The court, however, let him es
cape without a fine only on condi
tion that he would donate to the Bel
gian fund.
I Byers, 38 years old, a logger, was
haled into court when he refused to
remove his hat after being requested
by spectators to do so. He displayed
so little feeling of patriotism that
Judge Rossman decided to turn him
over to the Federal authorities for in
vestigation. Edwin McElnoy. aged 19, also failed
to remove his hat. After receiving a
lecture on patriotism he was ordered
to give $5 to the fund for the relief
of Belgian babies.
ROSES AREJINJIG DEMAND
Portland Residents Urged to Send
Blooms to Liberty Temple.
Visitors are charmed with the rare
beauty of Portland roses, as evidenced
by the manner of those who were
showered with flowers yesterday. The
executive committee requests that dur
ing the remaining days of the encamp
ment citizens contribute the flowers
from their rose gardens in-order that
the extraordinary fragrance and per
fection of the Portland rose may be im
pressed upon the stranger within the
city gates. Pleaee bring the roses to
the Liberty Temple and the distribution
will be taken care of by special rep
resentatives of the committee. .

Frank Roach, Aged 18, Arrested by
