Former Tinea Recalled.
-The 47th annual reunion of the Ore-
iron-Pioneer association met -in Port
land yesterday. Throughout the day
the municipal auditorium was filled
wlh laughing folk the kindly faced
seniors of their state. In all the books
that have been written of the west
and of the Oregon country in particular.
not one holds so rich a trove of fact
and recollected romance as that which
poured gossip yesterday, in the casual
greetings and reminiscence of the 800
delegates.
The Whitman massacre? So long
ago that was that the tale of the books
seem dim and far away. Tet there
were present at yesterday's reunion
many who recall it well, and at least
three who passed from the terror of
that savage raid to captivity with the
tribesmen.
The long trails of the plains, when
the oxen lumbered into the perilous
prairies, swollen fords where the strug
gling stock was swept away in the
crossing, the stormy passage around
Cape Horn, are realisms to most of the
men and women who were Portland's
honored guests mt the reunion.
Reaslssi Brlag Joy.
And happiness It never came In such
tide as when the comrades and play
mate of those days, after scores of
years, came face to face again and
slipped past the barriers of time to
the Joyful gates of remembrance.
"Why, bless my stars, this can't be
Alice!"
"Oh. yes It Is:"
There never was a more compre
hensive survey of the reasons why
pioneers delight to assemble, in the
one big first family of Oregon, than
that which was given by the little old
lady who curtseyed right and left, with
now and then the reward of an old ac
quaintance answering her smile.
"I alius like to com to these meet
ings. she explained. 'cause I meet the
ones I knew ever so long ago."
So long ago. indeed that those who
sought might have the privilege of
doffing hat and bowing to the daugh
ler of Jo Meek, that famous frontier
character, first United States marshal
of Oregon, who solved the historic rid
dle at Champoeg on May 3. 1S43, when
he cast the first ballot for American
civil government west of the Rocky
mountains and fixed forever the status
of the young commonwealth.

of the Oregon country.

cities, especially In the matter or
freight to Alaska and the Columbia

The interstate commerce commission
was .asked, in a complaint against the
director-general and a number of rail
roads to review virtually the entire
rate structure In that territory.

public service commission is to the point
brought out In the complaint iiiea wnn
the Interstate commerce commission in
the Tortland rate case, wnicn is ior

to come to Portland and conduct the

complaint that Portland Is entitled to
enjoy the same rates as oeaiue on
Alaska trade, since Seattle na ins
same rates on snipmcnio ,,si,b

Columbia river basin, and also by vlr
ture of other similar existent rates that

WASHINGTON, June 19. Represen
tative Gallivan, democrat, - of Massa
chusetts, in an attack today on the
administration of Postmaster-General
Burleson, declared It would be a great
relief to the people of the United States
if President Wilson Ifcvould hurry home
and clean house In his official family.
"If ho will do this." Mr. Gallivan
added, "it will do more than anything
else to check the spread of radicalism
and anarchy and make unnecessary a
special appropriation of half a million
dollars urged by the attorney-general
to prevent crime by anarchists."
The spirit of nnrest among the toilers
of the country, Mr. Gallivan said, was
breaking out In the most violent form
of anarchy In many places.- The. men
most directly responsible. . he charged,
were "the misguided off iclals in the
city of Washington clothed with war
authority which had turned their
heads."
While the president has been in
Europe," he said, "some of these of
ficials seem to have gone mad in their
lust for power and have blindly blun
dered in the administration of their
departments in such a manner as to
aggravate the spirit of unrest."
Mr. Gallivan asserted that Mr. Burle
son forced a strike among telegraph
operators and then "got from under'
by turning the operation back to prl

government ownership of public util

The roasting and boosting of Senator
Chamberlam; the election of Dr. J. W.
Morrow national committeeman in the
teeth of dire threats from Newton Mc
Coy: efforts to placate two rival women
democrats; a determination to keep
campaign money in Oregon Instead of
sending it to the national headquar
ters these and other diverting matters
made a sprightly meeting of the dem-oc.-atic
state central committee at the
Portland hotel yesterday. The friends
of Senator Chamberlain took every
trick, but, none the less, the anti
Chamberlaln democrats managed to in
ject their propaganda via the com
munique of Mr. McCoy.
Federal Officials Attend.
Federal office holders were much in
evidence at the meeting, equipped with
proxies, among them being United
States Marshal Alexander, Collector of
Customs Moore and Conciliator Harry.
Ex-Governor West had a fistful of
proxies, ditto State Senator Garland and
Judge T. H. Crawford. Other federal
officials, sat around on the sidelines,
interested but voiceless, possibly be
cause of a prompting of caution.
Several ripples of discord ran over
the meeting before the McCoy dynamite
was set off. In a letter asserting that
he is the national committeeman, le
gally elected by the executive com-'
mlttee, and offering to resign in favor
of anyone but Dr. Morrow, Mr. McCoy
wrote:
Mr. McCoy Promises Contest.
.."If, however, the committee should
go through the form of electing Dr.
Morrow national committeeman, I will
renew my contest 'for the position be
fore the national committee. Should I
fail before the national committee, I
will appeal to the voters of the demo
cratic party at the primaries next year.
"I have opposed the election of Dr.
Morrow to this office because he is
the candidate of Senator George E.
Chamberlain and Morrow's election will
be deemed by many people a rebuke to
the democratic national administration.
'Senator Chamberlain, by his opposi
tion to President Wilson's administra
tion, has put himself In such a position
before his own party in Oregon and in
the nation at large that to support
him further would, in the minds of
most people, be a rebuke and condemna
tion of President Wilson's administra
tion and support of Chamberlain will
essen the chances for carrying Oregon
for the democratic candidate for pres
ident in 1920. .
Cbamberlaln Is Blamed.
"These facts cannot be ignored, and
Senator Chamberlain is wholly to blame
for the threatened disruption of the
democratic party in Oregon. i
'I regret that I am compelled to
take this course, for I have been a
personal friend and a supporter of Sen
ator Chamberlain in all his political
campaigns for more than 20 years.".
A dramatic pause came, and then:
'That shouldn't be read into the min-'
utes of any democratic meeting in the
state," shouted a listener.
And it was not made part of the min
utes. Senator Garland moved that it
be accepted as an ex parte, individual
and personal statement of Mr. McCoy,
and as such filed with the rc"cord.
Marshal Alexander demanded that it be.
made no part of the mjnutes.
Judge Crawford Disclaims Discord.
Grown gray in the 'service of the
party, Judge Crawford claimed recog
nition and got it. He said he has been
displeased with some of the things Mr.
Chamberlain has done, and at the same
ime some of the persons the Senator
criticised, - but the judge avowed bis
admiration for the courage of any man.
emocrat or republican, who will op
ose what he thinks is wrong.
That letter," continued Judge Craw
ford, "makes it appear that the ad
ministration and Chamberlain are at
outs. Mr. McCoy is mistaken. Mr.
McAdoo and I talked for 15 minutes at
Baker, and he had nothing on earth but
good words for Chamberlain. He asked
me how Chamberlain stands In the
state and his chances for re-election,
nd said: 'I hope he'll be elected. He's
good man, and while he and the
president have had some disagreements

departments did an immense amount
