THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN. PORTLAND, MAY 13, 1900. 19 ITS MEMBERS DESERTING ROOSEVELT CLUB RAPIDLY GOING TO PIECES.- Republicans Rebuke Its Disloyalty Big: Demonstration to Be Ar ranged for Today. The Roosevelt Club, of tho Eighth "Ward, East Side, which so notoriously be trayed and broke Its pledges, and is now knifing the main portion of the regular Republican tlckp. is rapidly going to pieces. The honest, sound Republicans are leaving It for the reason that It Is seeking to defeat not only the most of the city ticket, but has now attacked the entire regular Legislative ticket. Yeeter day the following letter of resignation was mailed to the president and secretary of the clifb: "Portland. May 12. To President and Secretary Roosevelt Club, Eighth "Ward. City Dear Sirs: "We, the undersigned members of the Roosevelt Club, Eighth Ward, hereby tender our resignation as members of your club. "EDWARD GUNDERSON, "A. GERDE, "O. S. BODDING, "HANS OLSEK, "M. JOHNSON. , "N. P. JOHNSON, "M. BARRETT, "JOHN ZENZ, "G. JOHNSEN. "JOHN ROESCHLL "A. S. FINGER." The above list contains the names of sound Republicans, -who have become thoroughly disgusted with the course that the organization and the president have taken. They were deceived by the state ment that the Roosevelt Club was or ganized for harmony and to promote the Interests of the Republican party. One of the men whose name Is In the list says ihat the club Is knifing the whole regular Legislative ticket, and supporting the Democratic ticket, and that the main ob ject that Edmunds has is In reality to defeat the regular Republican candidates to the Legislature. Edward Gunderson, whose name appears above, has been one of the main sup porters and organizers of the Roose velt Club. He has been a mem ber of the executive committee. Everybody on the East Side knows lilm as a sound Republican, a man of in tegrity and Influence, and he was very anxious that the organization should sup port tho entire ticket, according to prom ise. He withdraws because he cannot in dorse the course it has taken. A. Gerde was a delegate to the city and county conventions from the Eighth Ward, and one of the Roosevelt Club's selections. He, too, has repudiated the club for the course it has taken. The others on the list are honorable men and sound Rcpi:l llcans, and well known In the Eighth Ward as good citizens. They, too, hav had enough. And there are others to hear from. A TRIBUTE TO W. B. CHASE. How He Has Protected the Taxpay ers The Austin Candidacy. PORTLAND. May 12. To the Editor.) In addition to what you say concerning the candidacy of Mr. Austin a d Mr. Chase for Ue office of City Engineer, permit me to bear testimony not only to the well-known ability of Mr. Chase as an engineer, but to his sterling and uncom promising integrity as a public official. I liave been intimately associated with Mr. Chase during the past four years, and I know the character of man he is, and the value of his experience and abil ity to the taxpayers In the Important of fice of City Engineer. He has alwaj s been found Insisting upon and compelling contractors to do their work strictly In accordance with the ordi nances of the city, thus protecting the property-owner, and giving him, as nearly as possible, value received for the money he pays for street and sewer Improve ments. No stronger evidence of the truth of this can be produced than the fact that a number of street contractors are now vigorously opposing the re-election of Mr. Chaee. To my mind, the true test for a public official should be, "Is he honest and Is he capable?" Measured by such a test, Mr. Chase Is fully qualified for the posi tion of City Engineer. Another subject that Is being Indus triously used in the campaign for the benflt of Mr. Austin and to the Injury of Mr. Chase, Is that the new charter con flolidated the offices of Superintendent of Streets and City Surveyor under ona of fice, namely. City Engineer, and con tinued in office Mr. Chase as such City Engineer. This was done by the Legis lature In the line of economy in our city government, and efficiency in the service In the?o departments. Such a course was generally urged by leading taxpayers long before the election two years ago, pro vided a new charter was enacted, and I am informed that Mr. Austin understood, prior to his election as City Surveyor, that auch action would bo had. Mr. Chae Is In no way responsible for the action of the Legislature, and had nothing to do with tho framing of tho charter. Mr. Austin, I understand. Is now en deavoring to arouse the sympathy of the voters on the ground that he was legis lated out of office, and endeavors to make Mr. Chase responsible. In this connection It should be stated tESlTVohvlthstandlng Mr. Austin was legislated ' out, he has been well cared for in the way of salary. He was paid $200 per month from July 1, 3SDS. to January 1; 1899, and $150 per month from January 1, 1S99, to June 7. 1S99. in all $19S5. Furthermore, the Board of Pub lic Works, which has the supervision of tho employes In the office of the City En gineer, upon the recommendation of Mr. Chase, offered to emrtor Mr. Austin as a Deputy Survejor at a salary of $100 per' month, provided he could perform the duties of a Deputy Surveyor, which offer Mr. Austin declined. A. N. GAMBELL, City Auditor. FOR BIG DEMONSTRATION. Joint Committees Will Meet on tho East Side Today. There will be a meeting .of all the Joint committees of the East Side Republican clubs this afternoon at 3 o'clock at G4 Grand avenue, corner East Oak street, for the purpose of taking preliminary steps for holding a monster demonstra tion some time this month at Burkhard's Hall. The clubs which are requested to eerd delegates to this meeting are: The Sellwoor. the U. S. Grant, Sunnyslae, Toung Men's Straight Republican. Mult-nomah-t'rlon. and all the clubs of the Tenth and Eleventh Wards. It Is desired that all those dubs should be represented this afternoon by as manj committeemen as may attend. In view of the fact that the regular Republican candidate for Mayor Is from the East Side, it was con sidered proper that a "big demonstration should be undertaken. At the meeting this afternoon It is expected to complete as much o the arrangements as may be, so that the work of preparation may go forward without delay. Candidate IJevliu Surprised. Yesterday at noon, Thomas C Devlin, candidate for City Auditor on the Repub lican ticket, received a very grateful eur prlse. Juft at present ilr. Devlin Is en gaged in the heat of a campaign, and the demands on him for public addresses are to constant that he has very little time left for anj thing else.

The rcet need not be told, but the luncheon hour was one of the pleasanlest he lias spent for some time. There were no speeches to make and no 'lection cards to give out. but a flow of ?ood humor and manv encouraging words for his success in the vigorous campaign he is making. "HIGH SCHOOL WINS AGAIN. Defeated Oregon University Men la Debate. Victory again perched on the banner of the High School in the second debating contest with the freshman class of the University of Oregon, -which was held in the assembly hall of the High School building last evening. "Municipal govern ments should not assume control of street car systems." Such was the decision of the Judges, after hearing the debate. The question was: "Resolved, That I OVER 1700 "WOMEN AXD CHILDREN' ,SAW "UN'CLE TOM'S CABV The largest matinee ever known at Cordrays Theater was given yesterday, the attraction of course being the never-falling "Uncle Tom's Cabin." More than 1700 people were in the theater, and nearly 300 disappointed children were unable to gain admission. The cntranco cf the theater was packed for an hour before the doors opened, and the crowd kept pouring in long after the curtain went up. municipal ownership and operation of the street railway lines In the cities of the United States whosa population is over 509,000 would better subserve the Inter ests of the people of those cities than do the present sj stems of ownership and I operation by private corporations; it being conceded, first, that such municipal own ership and operation would be Constltu nl0?naila?ndJalnMnd COuld V ! t,2rU-0ai iSS?1 S 5S state legislative Interference, and, third, that all appointments, promotions and re movals would be made on the basis of business efficiency only." It will be seen that the subject was well hedged, which should have redounded to the benefit of the university, which had the affirmative. Edward ilaslln Hulme was chairman; H. H. Northup, Dr. Ly man. John Gill, R. W. Montague and E. F. Riley, judges, and the contestants were: L. E. Hooker. C. A. Redmond and I Edwin N. Blythe, for the University, and Benjamin C Dey, Raymond "W. Steel and Paul Rockey. for the High School. As usual, the affirmative led, and the speak ers alternated, with 17 minutes for each, while Steel and Hooker took the respect ive sides of their schools for a 10-mlnute rebuttal each. Each time a University man spoke a fine bunch of roses was pre sented, and there was plenty of Univer sity sympathy, but the High School boys displayed greater mastery of their sub ject, spoke with greater ease, and drew the lion's ehare of honors. The spirited rebuttal of Hooker, for the University, was all that saved It from an overwhelming sentiment iof defeat, as their three principal addresses were most ly read from notes In a rather halting and hesitating manner. Delivery was one of the points excluded, the merits of the case res-ting on the evidence cited and the skill of the debaters, yet the superior address of the High School boys enabled them to put their arguments more effect ively and elearly. lhere was plenty Of checrnlg when the debaters sent home telling remarks. Dey, Steel and Rockey were liberal with these, but suffered some what when Hooker warmed up In his re buttal. Tho main point made by the Hlgn School was superior efficiency that is, greater service for the money expended under private ownership, while the Uni versity dwelt upon broader benefits than aro Indicated in this argument, and held up the eUdences of corruption where fran chises were granted. The latter was turned rather heavily by showing the In creased opportunity for corruption under complete Government ownership.

All the horses can be termed local pacers, as they are owned in the Northern district-, comprising Oregon, Washington, Idaho and British Columbia, They are evenly matched for speed, and lt Is safe to say that It will, be the greatest contest ever witnessed on an Oregon track.

The suit of Henry Gallet vs. s the Alns worth National Bank was continued for trial by Judge Sears yesterday until the September term of court, by consent of counsel. No action was taken concern ing the alleged misconduct of Juror R. Cowan. He was present In Ihe court room, but nothing was said to him. and the matter will probably be taken up at some futre date. As Cowan is a member of the regular panel of jurors, he be regularly in attendance upon court j ror sonie time, and his actions ia this case can be Inquired into whenever the court Is ready to do so. COMING ECLIPSE OF SUN. Sirs. Altman Talks Entertainingly About Its Significance. "In view of the vital interest taken all over the United States, as well as In nil regions of the civilized world, in the com ing total eclipse of May 2S, visible In the southeasCern part of our country. It would seem that Some Interest In such a world phenomenon should be taken in our midst," said Mrs. Louis Altman to. a rep- resentatlve of The Orogonlan the other day. Mrs. Altman Is well known In this community as an enthusiastic student of astronomical phenomena. Probably no one in Portland keeps more thoroughly abreast of the times In these matters than her- self, or has done more to arouse public interest In the starry luminaries and their celestial wanderings. Is It not a curious reflection." she con- tinned, "on our presumed interest In con temporary events, let alone our striving for culture and progress, that -we pore over every trifle of election news, record ing of social events, and all incidents of the Inhuman war monster, yet manifest little or no Interest In one of the grand est revelations of nature? "The wonderful discoveries made through these total eclipses of the sun during the last six decades In regard to the constituency of the sun, Its partly es tablished connection with terrestrial mag netism, its electrical and chemical affini ties, and its -wonderful possibilities as our fiituro storehouse of motor power, as It Is now of light and heat, would seem a powerful appeal to all followers of science, commerce' and culture. And the gran deur, welrdness and sublimity of the phy sical aspect of a total eclipse should be a sufficient impulse to induce people of wealth and leisure to Journey across our continent to be awed and thrilled by so wondrpus a spectacle It is of higher im portance to Identify ourselves with the seekers for light 'and knowledge, than to follow the rush to an exposition, the main ' Quieting for days, and can never be wholly lost. A startling nearness to the gigantic forces of Nature and their incon ceivable operation seems to have beeiT es tablished. Personalities, and towns and cities, and hates and jealousies, and even mundane hopes, grow very small and far away.' 'As the next total eclinse ot the sun I visible in the United States 0918) will also be visible in Oregon, It ought to prove uti ouueu iiiueiiiitt: iu iu iu lucuui) our selves In thought with the present one by study and research of Its causes, phe nomena, and possibilities."
