TWO STILLS ARE SEIZED
Alleged Moonshiners Taken Into
Custody Kear Astoria.
ASTORIA, Or- Jan. 23. (Special.)
" wo alleged moonshiners were ar
rested today by Sheriff Nelson and
deputy Bakotich. One was George
condos, a Greek, employed at the
Vestport null. The officers found
at his cabin five quarts of liquor,
4U gallons of raisin mash and part
of a still made from a coiloil can, and
a tea kettle..
ne otner aeienaant is U. Uaido, a
Japanese, who was working at th
warrenton mill. He had two quarts
or saKi and about 40 gallons of rice
mash. His still consisted of a large
iron pan with a wooden cover, the
"coil" being an iron pipe which ran
through a wooden trough filled with
water. Both, the prisoners are to be
prosecuted in the local courts and
then turned over to the federal au
thorities.
ever with the democratsand secondly,
against any change in the Lodge
reservations. This view was outlined
in Senator Johnson's statement after
the conference broke up.
"After months of debate and de
liberation," said Senator Johnson, "the
senate agreed to a set of reserva
tions which represent a compromise.
It was admitted by everybody that
these reservations, called the Lodge
reservations, were the very limit that
should be done for the protection of
America. In the language of Senator
Lodge, then constituted an Irreducible
minimum.' Personally. I am unable
to see how there can be any compro
mise upon the least possible protec
tion to American or European reser
vations which are the 'irreducible
minimum' in safeguarding American
institutions. To me there can be no
compromise with American honor or
American protection."

for action." Sentiment Is rising, he
declared, for an independent presl
dential candidate because of the sen
ate delay.
The conference of republicans with
Senator Lodge late today was held in
Senator Johnson's office and attended
by Senators Borah, Knox of Pennsyl
vania, Poindexter of Washington,
Sherman and McCormick of Illinois,
Brandegee of Connecticut and Moses
of New Hampshire. After two hours
spent with Mr. Lodge, Senator New
- of Indiana, who is sitting with Mr.
Lodge on the leader's committee ne
gotlating with the democratic com
tmlttee, was called in, and about as-
other hour spent in spirited discus
sion.
Although all of the senators who
called on Messrs. Lodge and New
voted last November against ratlfica
tion of the treaty and are counted
among its bitterest foes, one of thos
present declared tonight that the
count on support of three votes, or
enough to prevent ratification. If the!
protest against modifying the Lodge
reservations Is not heeded.
Treaty Compromise DlMcnaaed.
Except for brief statements from
Senators Lodge and Johnson and
lengthy statement from Senator Sher
man, few of the senators participat'
ing in the conference would talk fo
publication. Mr. Lodge said the gena
tors, who called him to the meetin
represented "a large group of sena
tors, who want no change In th
Lodge reservations." Senator John
eon declared that the Lodge reserva
tions were said by Mr. Lodge to be
""the irreducible" minimum. Others 1
the meeting stated privately that th
question of a treaty comprdmise on
"republican solidarity and leadership
In the county" was discussed.
"Were there any threats to bolt
the republican leadership or the
. party?" was asked of one of the re
publican conferees.
"I would rather not answer that
question," came a hesitant reply.
"Tarty solidarity Is threatened; that
is all I care to say."
Senator Johnson was asked regard
ing reports widely circulated In sena
ate lobby gossip, that declarations
had been made of a third party move
ment and a "bolt" from republican
senate leadership of the Lodge reser
vations are modified, and the Cali
fornia senator replied:
Poppycock; I haven t such a
thought."
Lodge Kxplnlnn Meeting?.
Senator Lodge said the meeting was
to give Information to senators pres
ent regarding the compromise nego
tiations with the democratic committee.
"They represent a large . body of
senators who want no change in the
Lodge reservations," said Mr. Lodge.
To the suggestion that all of those
present except himself and Senator
New are identified with the treaty's
foes, Mr. Lodge answered:
"We must present the question to
ell sides. That was understood in
undertaking tho negotiations with the
democrats. We republicans, in meet
Itit the democratic leaders, represent
nobody but ourselves. Anything we
!o is tentative and must be referred
back. Those present today wanted to
know what we had done.
Beyond this, Sentor Lodge d
rlined to comment other than to state
that another bi-partisan meeting of
tho leaders' committees would be held
tomorrow. Other senators in today's
council, however, stated that no text
ual drafts of proposed compromise
reservations were considered.
The principal protest of th elgTit
perm tors to Mr. Lodge and Mr. New
It was stated, was against holding
suj compromise negotiation what-
caster, state chairman of the near
east relief, to the post of state treas
urer for tills philanthropical organ
ization, to succeed Ben Selling, who
has served in this office for the past
four years.
'Mr. Brookings will at once take
over all near east relief funds and
will have charge of all contributions
turned in during the approaching
near east relief campaign," said
Chairman Lancaster last night. "We
regret exceedingly that we must lose
Mr. Selling as treasurer, but he has
had the responsibilities of the office
for four years and we cannot insist
upon his longer keeping the office
since he pleads the pressure of other
matters In tendering bif resignation.
Mr. Selling will continue to take air
active part In near east relief work,
we are glad to say."
Mr. Brookings, the new treasurer,
has been for 17 years identified with
the Ladd & Tllton bank. He started
in at the bank as assistant bookkeep
er, and has steajily advanced. On
the first of this year he was promot
ed from the position of auditor to
that of assistant cashier.
MARSHF1ELP IDOL FALLS
Jack Hames Tells Police Robbery
Story Is Untrue.
MARSHFIELD. Or.. Jan. 23. fSpe-
clal.) Jack Hames, the- 17-year-old
boy who won high praise here lor a.
day after his remarkable story of
knocking out a burglar and escaping
robbery. Is a fallen Idol among his
high school girl friends, with whom
the police Ray he was herolzing him
6elf. The young women of the high
school received notes prior and subse
quent to the alleged robbery advising
them to warn young Hames be was in
great danger.
One, written after the robbery, was
purported to have been written by the
robbers and said Hames was the fel
low who killed Lillian Leuthold. The
police disbelieved Hames" story from
the first and after a three days in
vestigation Hames confessed there
was no robbery.
A peculiar aftermath of the Lillian
Leuthold murder is that a number
have dwelt upon the topic and Hames
is the third to be affected by thinking
about the murder.
SEATTLE. Wash, Jan. 2J. (Special.)
Unless circumstances spoil the pro
gramme. United States Senator Poin
texter will swing-through Washing
ton next month, or at least before the
republican state convention is , held
and probably will fill speaking en
gagements in other northwestern
states about the same time.
The junior senator, friands here say.
is coming west to put more "Jazz " in
his presidential campaign. Long ago
nearly everyDody active In repuDli
can state and county politics formally
Indorsed Poindexter and assured him
the state delegation would vote for
him at Chicago. The thing has been
regarded as settled, and even those
other presidential candidates who
would like to count Washington's 14
votes have conceded that Poindexter
had first call.
Poliexter Hot Satisfied.
This seemed to roost republican
leaders to be sufficient. In fact, when
recent inquiries have been made by
Poindexter's eastern friends the lead
ers in this state have set forth the
facts and demanded to know whether
the work is sufficient, and If not what
more could be done.
Lack of this, eastern friends point
ont, Is rather discouraging to propa
gandists who need something of i
news tint to put over every day.
Poindexter, they assert, has been mak
ing strong inroads In the east, but
the echoing applause Is not coming
from his home sector. That is why
It is declared positively - that Poin
dexter will be out this way next
month. .
Whether he can arrange matters to
drop in at Seattle about February
when the republican state committee
and the 39 county chairmen meet at
Billy Pott's hotel and the young men's
republican club banquet at the Hippo
drome is doubtful, but that he is com
ing is said to be certain.
Republican politicians who nave
been taxed with neglect of the Poin
dexter boom insist the fault all lies
in his eastern headquarters. This
state has not been kept Informed of
his doings or bis wishes, they say,
Early last summer Howard Rice, sec
retary to Senator Poindexter, made
hurried trip through the state, and
later everybody of active prominence
In the party signed up an indorse
ment of Poindexter's candidacy, and
that was about the last heard from
eastern headquarters.
; Wishes Not Known.
Chairman Walker has expected an
intimation from Poindexter as to the
time he wished the republican state
convention held, and there is no doubt
Walker and his friends on the com
mittee would fix a date agreeable to
the senator if they knew what be
wanted.
George H. Walker, who is registered
as the Poindexter representative here,
has been told once in a while wha
was happening in the east, but has
not been informed that it also 1
necessary to keep the home fires
burning. In fact, neither of the
Walkers has been informed! that there
were any home fires to keep going.
Already steps have been taken to
put more life In the Poindexter move
aent here, and the next step will be
a personal visit, his friends say.

Career Marked by Long Service in
Medical Profession; Political
Office Declined.
HILLSBORO. Or Tan. ffiriK.
clal.) Dr. Francis A. Bailey, pioneer
physician of Washington county and
widely known throughout the state,
died this morning following an at-
tacK ofc pneumonia a week ago.
He was born January 28. 1839. in
Hardeman county, Tennessee, and
after attending Lebanon college In
that state pursued his medical studies
n St. Louis. Durine- the civil war
Dr. Bailey served In the confederate
army as a medical cadet in General
Price's division and was also In the
confederate hospital service. In 1864
he was appointed physician on one
of tho Hudson Bay company steamers
running between St. Louis and the
head of navigation on the Missouri
river. Leaving the boat at the end
of its trip he proceeded overland
through Missouri and Idaho to Ore
gon, reaching Uillsboro, October 20,
1864.
Having taught school In Tennessee.
he secured a position as teacher of a
scnooi in Scogglns valley with an
agreement that he could also orao
tlco his profession, but the demands
of the latter, soon became so great
that he resigned his school position
and began his visits to the sick in all
parts of the county. These he con
tinued practically without Interrup
tion until the week before his death.
He was widely known as a physician
and had served twice as president of
tne state Medical society. A feature
of his practice which has attracted at
tention was that despite advanced age
he kept pace with all new discoveries
In medical science.
Dr. Bailey had served many times
as mayor of Hlllsboro and member of
the council, but consistently declined
political office. It Is an open secret
that he was waited upon by a dele
gation and urged to accept the guber
natorial nomination, which later went
to Governor Pennbyer, but declined on
the ground that he could not leave
his profession for four years.
He was a public speaker of marked
ability and for more than a half-cen
tury has been active In public af
fairs. During the war he was one
of tho four-minute men who spoke in
a local theater and he spoke at many
war meetings.
The establishment of the Hlllsboro
public library was chiefly due to the
efforts of Dr. Bailey, and he had
served continuously as president of
the library board. He was made a
Mason in 1881 and had been master of
Hlllsboro lodge many times since.
He is survived by his widow, who
was Miss Letitia A. Chambers, whom
he married in ISSfi, and the following
sons and daughters: Dr. Francis J.
Bailey of Hlllsboro, Dr. A. B. Bailey
and Dr. T. C. Bailey of Portland, J.
W. Bailey and Miss Eva Bailey of
Hillsboro.
The funeral will be held Sunday
afternoon at 2 o'clock under the aus
pices of the Masonic fraternity.

BOX MAKERS TO MEET
P ORTLAXD SESSIOX TO DISCUSS
STAN D ARDIZATIOX.
Pacific Coast Association to Con
vene Xeit Jlonday Fmit Sit
uation to Be Viewed.
Portland on Monday, January 26,
will be host to the box manufactur
ers from all parts of the Pacific coast
and from territory as far east as the
Rockies, the occasion being the an
nual meeting of the box manufactur
ers' association. The sessions, which
will cover the entire day, will be held
at the Multnomah hotel.
The question of standardization of
boxes will receive careful attention
and will probably be the most im
portant matter before the gathering,
according to the programme. It Is the
aim of the box manufacturers of the
coast, it is stated, to adopt uniform
sizes for every variety of box that Is
produced. This, it Is pointed out, also
will enable the box manufacturers to
determine the amount of lumber re

When uou sAid
Every time you skid you wear off miles
and miles of tire service. It's like so
. many dollars being thrown in front of
.the street cleaner's scraper. Loss of
traction always means loss of tire money.
Chief Engineer of the International
Motor Company, A. F. Masury, says :
"Sliding the wheel of railroad cars causes flat wheels.
If sliding a hardened steel tire over a smooth steel rail
for a few seconds can so abrade the wheel that its pounding
will crack 150-lb. rails, fancy the damage to a rubber tire
in skidding or sliding over a stone or concrete road,
"No matter how care f ally and skillfully yoa drive when
roads are wet and slippery, it is next to impossible to avoid
skidding unless your tires are equipped with Anti-Skid Chains
such as Weed Chains."
