THE SUNDAY OREGOXtAN, PORTLAND, JUKE 1, 1902.
GREAT DAY FOR WOODMEN
MONUMEVTS TO DB UNVEILED AXD
GRAVES DECORATED TODAY.
Parade to Cone Fir Cemetery Five
Thousand Member of Order
to Be in Line.
The Woodmen of the World are pre
paring to observe their Decoration day
today on an extensive scale. One of the
features of this order. In addition to
others usually promulgated by m societies
of its class, is the erection of "a monu
ment over the grave of each deceased
member, and the unveiling of all Monu
ments erected during the previous year,
on the Sunday nearest the 6th of June,
Which is the anniversary of the order.
June 1 was chosen this year because of
other arrangements and events which dif
ferent camps of the order In thU city
have programmed for the near future. In
addition to the unveiling of monuments
erected during the current year, the
graves of all deceased members are an
nuallj' decorated at this time. It is the
pride of the Woodmen of the World that
no member of the order can lie In an un
marked grive. Three of its monuments
" "TT' ' MVi'yJi,ViV'J'''ru'i'"T"7V'ii'' 'irMMrl

have been erected over Woodmen soldier
graves In Manila, and one is said to be
the first monument erected in Dawson
City cemetery.
These same features also prevail with
the Women of Woodcraft, which is the
ladies' auxiliary of the Woodmen of the
World.
There are 17 cimps and circles, or local
lodges of the two orders in this cltj with
a. combined membership of over 5000. It
Is anticipated that nearly the entire mem
bership of Portland will turn out today
to participate in these services.
The exercises today will consist of a
parade to Lone Fir cemetery. This will
be by the Woodmen of the World only.
At the cemetery it will be joined by the
Women of Woodcraft, and together the
procession will advance to the place se
lected for the exercises. Here, on a
raised platform, the beautiful ritualistic
services of the two orders In unveiling
of monuments will take place. Imme
diately in Tront of the platform will be
assembled a. brass band, which will dis
course music appropriate to Jhe place and
occasion. Next to them will be the
guards of the Women of Woodcraft, and
outside of these will be stationed the
several Portland companies of the uni
form rank of the order. Back of these
the membership and public generally will
WHY HE IS POrULAR.
Here is Chamberlain's "pull" In a
nutshell, and the whole secret of It:
He la Prosecuting Attorney and will be

j two years more If he Is beaten. What
lawbreaker dares go against him? His
power to punish or to render Immune
from punishment the vicious and crim
inal classes of the "North End" Is un
limited. They are all going to vote for
Chamberlain for Governor. They muit.
If they fail to contribute their money
and influence and every possible effort
to elect him Governor, they expect to
hear from him. Chamberlain alone can
put them out of business, and they
know It full well. Add to this that he
Is reinforced by the entire force of the
police, and It is plain to the classes on
the "fringe" that they could not exist
for a moment if they do not toe the
mark. No wonder Chamberlain Is pop

ualistic ervlces which will be rendered
by ffpeclnlly selected teams picked from
all camps and circles in the city, there
will be singing by the Woodmen quartet,
under direction of Neighbor J. Adrian Ep
ping, and an address by J. E. Werlein.
The graves of all members of the order
will be decorated early. In the day, by
special committees, wnich will visit all
cemeteries for that purpose. This com
mittee will leave W. O. W. Hall at the
corner of Tenth and Washington streets
at 9 o'clock today, and the general com
mittee earnestly desires all bringing flow

that hour.

INSINCERE, UNPATRIOTIC AND' UNJUST
DEMOCRATIC ATTITUDE TOWARD THE PHILIPPINES
EXPOSED AND DENOUNCED BY SENATOR MORGAN
WASHINGTON, May 3L It has re
mained for a Democratic Senator, the
veteran Morgan of Alabama, who has
long heen prominently identified with the
Nicaragua Canal, to put before the
country in Its true light the Democratic
attitude toward the Philippine Islands,
and , to show up in clear light the in
adequacy of the Democratic assaults on
American sovereignty there and thefutil
ity .of Democratic attacks on the Army.
In the Senate Mr. Morgan said:
I voted for the Treaty- of Paris, as It
came from the hands of the negotiators,
without amendment or explanation, and 1
voted against all resolutions that at
tempted to attach conditions to that
treaty, believing that If such conditions
were proper to be attached to its execu
tion, the treaty should not be ratified.
The question I ask myself is forced up
on me by the attitude of eome of my
fellow Democrats, who charge that the
administrative history of the Philippines
has been nothing but evil and is due to
tho policy which is called "expansion,"
as a natural If not a necessary result,
and that the vote for ratification of the
Treaty of Paris carried with it these in
evitable consequences.
It was at this point that the line of
sepaartion was established when the
treaty was ratified, which today is the
line that separates the friends of the
treaty from Its opponents. The opponents
of the treaty reproach its friends for
having supported It, while they don't pro
pose to repeal any of ifcs provisions. They
place the whole question in the shape of
a National curse that to irrevocable, when
they could get rid of all the alleged evils
by repealing the parts of the treaty that
relate to the Philippines. Of this they
seem tc-be afraid. They don't offer to
repeal or abrogate the treaty.
I excuse these who now see a fatal pol
icy in that cession, and thought they
saw It then, from ill accusations of
witnesses on that occasion, and I stni
excuse them for not trying to re
peal that cession, when we know that the
SrCCESS OF SUCH AX EFFORT
WOULD THROW THE PEOPLE OF
THESE ISLANDS BACK IATO THE
ARMS OF SPAIV, WHOSE TVUAXXIES
HAVF MADE THE3I ITS UNFORGIV
ING ENEMIES, AXD WOULD HAVE
DISHONORED THE POLICY OX
WHICH THAT AVAR WAS DECLARED.
To have crowned such a war, waged
for such generous purposes, with such
a jesult, would have dismayed stronger
hearts than those even that beat In the
bosoms of my Democratic colleagues.
Referring to the Rawlins substitute to
commit the Government to ultimately
release the islands, he said:
What would bo thought of me. as a
Senator, if I should copy the language of
the pledge that Is in this substitute In a
joint resolution, to provide for the future
Independence of Alabama, that is already
sovereign and is in full exercise ot au
tonomous government? Who would rise
here and assert that such a measure was
within the delegated powers of Congress?
If I should keep my Fiat In the Senate
after such an effort, I should have no
hope of remaining in the Democratic
party as a respectable member.
I MUST DECLARE 3IY CONVICTIOX
THATWE SHOULD HAVE REVERSED
THE MOST SACRED AXD HOLY PRIN
CIPLE IX OUR SYSTEM OF GOVERN
MENT AND THE REAL GLORY OF
OUR INDEPENDENCE IF 1VE HAD
ABANDONED DEWEY'S CONQUEST
OF MANILA WITHOUT SECURING
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY TO THE ISL
ANDS OF THE ARCHIPELAGO. I
MUST ON CONSCIENCE FURTHER
DECLARE UNTIL FREEDOM OF HE
LIGION IS ESTABLISHED IX THE
ISLAND OF MINDANAO AND THE
SULU ARCHIPELAGO, IT WILL DIS
GRACE THE IN1TED STATES
THRODCH ALL THE YET UNWRIT
TEN RECORDS OF HISTORY IF WE
WITHDRAW OUR SOVEREIGNTY
FROM THOSE ISLANDS.
It would be a terrible reflection on the
HOW BR0.5TR0NG DID J
Republicans of the American type, and to
the followers of Thomas Jefferson, in
pollltlcal belief, that the United States
should be In the occupancy of a -country
consecrated to religious intolerance, and
after it had admitted tc such a country
a day's sunshine of the freedom of relig
ion. It should turn that country back to
a sovereign power that would Instantly
'put out that light and- remand the people
to the fetters of an established church.
If, for this, I must plead my excuses
to my Democratic brethren for Insisting
that this cardinal principle- must be per
manent In the Philippines'.
If my vote for the treaty of Paris prove
to be my death as a Democrat,, my tomb
will not be dishonored if It has the in
scription. "The freedom of reHgton,"
which Thomas Jefferson wrote for hts
own 'tomb as tho most cherished work o
his great career?
Whatever else may or may not happen
to the Philippines, we have dedicated
those Islands to the freedom of religion;
we have unshackled them from the do
minion of an established church, and no
power will ever x!st that can undo our
work or remand them to that servitude
through tho agencies of political or mili
tary power. I cannot rtgret a vote in
the Sennte of the United States, which
God has blessed with such impriebable
good. Much has been alleged that Im
putes to the Government a purpose to
enrich Its favorites at the expense of the
people of the Philippine archipelago.
I feel that simple justice requires me to
express my dlesent to that statement. It
is not sustained by the- facts. On the con
trary, thore Is a feeling of distrust to
ward men of enterprise and capital that
is calculated to injure the Islands by
keeping the public lands unoccupied and
by keeping out of the world's commerce
the productions that would make Its Isl
anders prosperous and contented.
The Islands were full of Indians, as our
country was when Washington surren
dered his commission at Annapolis. And
it would be quite as Just to say that the
Constitution of the United States was a
barbarous edict because It provided for
the government of the Indian tribes
through regulations of commerce by acts
of Congress as to contend that the pur
pose of tile Government was .robbery In
assuming sovereignty rights over the vari
ous tribes in the Philippines;
IX' OUR DEALINGS WITH THE
PHILIPPLNE ISLANDS. THERE "WAS
NEVER A MOMENT OF TI3IE WHEN
WE COULD HAVE HALTED OR
COULD HAVE REVERSED OUR
MOVEMENTS WITHOUT VIOLATING
THE INSTINCTS OF OUR RACE AND
THE DUTY OF OUR GOVERXMENT.
We are discreetly silent when people
In mobs Inflict summary Justice on out
laws, and should be discreetly careful In
our investigation, but we declaim against
the men we send out to confront outlaws
and to punish them for their crimes.
I DOX'T BELIEVE THAT ANY
AMERICAN' OFFICER HAS MALICI
OUSLY INFLICTED HARM OX AXY
BODY OF FILIPINOS OR ON ANY
PERSON, EITHER BY ORDERS GIVEN
TO HIS SUBORDINATES OR BY THE
SILENT APPROVAL OF THEIR .MIS

AND WREAK THEIR VENGEANCE

It Is very difficult io restrain the sol
diers or tho people to the precise methods
of legal procedure when they are forced
to free the country from men who are
voluntary outlaws.
But what excuse can possibly be found
In the conduct of the Army for the refusal
of Congress to give proper government
to the Philippine Islands? We must either
goyern them or abandon them, and the
more the Army may have abused these
people the higher is the duty of providing
for them a better civil government.

Pamphlet , Reflects His Personal
Vlcwa and Dr. Hutchinson's Mr.
Parker's Statement.
PORTLAND, May SL (To the Editor.)
My name having been used In. connection
with the statements purporting to come"
from the Civic Federation Committee in
tho pamphlet recently given -to the public
over the signature of Thomas N, Strong,
I deem it my duty to the candidates of
the several tickets and th'e voters of
Multnomah County to state tho extent of
my connection with the organization
known to the public as the Civic Federa
tion Committee, ancl In how far I Indorse
Its.allegedr prodtlct, "Information to Vot
ers)' I was employed to gather information
regarding the various candidates. Not
knowing the majority of them; in fact;
knowing few of them oven by sight,
and not having resided long enough in
the city to be conversant with their re
spective records, I prepared my notes
from written statements furnished to me
by Thomas N. Strong and Dr. Woods
Hutchinson, short biographical sketches
furnished by some of the candidates, the
records of -the various courts, the Senate
and House journals, clippings from the
Morning Oregonian and the Evening Tel
egram, and from expressions of personal
estimates of the candidates made by
Messrs. Strong and Hutchinson. My
notes, which are now in the possession of
the said Strong and Hutchinson, are
made up of the personal opinions of these
men by me reduced to writing, and of
summaries from the other above-mentioned
sources, of all of which I was but
the collector and compiler, and for the
truth of which I disclaim any responsibil
ity; therefore, I disavow any indorsement
thereof. These notes were placed by me
in 'the possession of Messrs. Strong and
Hutchinson.
On the evening of May 23, a proof of
the article about Judge Cameron, very
nearly as it appears in the pamphlet "In
formation to Voters," was brought to my
attention by a member of the committee.
On reading the statement, I saw that it
was utterly false a purely malicious at
tack. The next day I succeeded In see
ing Messrs. Strong and Hutchinson, the
former in my office, the latter In his own
rooms, In the Falling building, and in
formed them that if they were responsible
for that article, they no doubt purposed
putting forth Articles equally unfair and
untrue about other candidates, who wero
not their "pets." After a few minutes'
conversation with each of them, I became
convinced that their purpose from the
beginning had been to misrepresent an'd
distort fact3 and favor (under the name
of a reform organization) some special
candidates for "private" reasons best
known vto themselves. I then Informed
them I would have nothing further to do
with them In their "reform movement,
and would not be responsible for any of
the statements they might put before the
public Messrs. Strong and Hutchinson
assured me they would put out what mat
ter they chose. In the form thoy chose,
and on their sole responsibility. At this
time the matter was not published.
For my time in arranging these notes
I was to be paid, but, forsooth, as far
as I know, all the coin Is not In esse.
I wish to state positively that the per
sonal estimates of candidates and rec
ommendations to voters embodied in
"Information to Voters" Is indorsed sole
ly, so far as I know, by the said Strong
and Hutchinson.
As a sample of the methods 6t misrep
resentation, William Rcfd, candidate for
Justice of the' Peace, West Side, at one
time appeared Co recover money for a
man who had lost to one of the gambling
houses'. Because of the extent of the
losses, the case attracted considerable,
attention, and the plaintiff was known as
Lauren Wooley. He also appeared at one
time to defend one A. De Martineau In
a civil suit, and yet this Is made to ap
pear as William Reld's defending the
gambling element of the city. And so I
might go on. But why? The entire out
put, except where reference Is made to
records and even that may be Is little
short of political "rot."
Now there has been an. effort on the
part of the "reformed purists," whose
names I have mentioned in this letter, to
shift the responsibility for the matter in
"Information to Voters," but. In the
light of the real facts, such tactics are
scarcely compatible with the dignity of
"would-be" reformers, and surely far
short of what the public has a reason to
expect from men -of their supposed men
tality. As for the Civic Federation Committee,
which started with sounding trumpet, it
"has become as air, thin air" excepting
Thomas N. Strong, alias Chic Federa
tion Committee, and such others as are
willing to avow his statements In his
"Information to Voters." As the articles
are "Strong," few indorse them.

SURVEY FOR ELECTRIC LINE
Road Will Run From Lenta to Grciih-am-Eastern
Multnomah Intcreittcd.
GRESHAM, Or., May 3L A crew o
railroad surveyors have been at work
through here the past few days, locat
ing grades for a proposed electric line,
which will run from Lents, at the end of
tho present line. The surveys will follow
an easy grade all the way from Lents
along the banks of Johnson Creek. A
former survey was begun further south
ward through Damascus, but it was
found to be impracticable, and the route
was changed. The line Is the same one
announced In The Oregonian several
months ago, and will pass through the
Eagle Creek country and return to Ore
gon City. From here the survey will pass
near Powell Valley, and thence to Sandy.
Claim Agent J, N. Davis was here yester
day and today, securing right of way,
and there is no doubt but the road will
be built before another year. People
here are very axlous for such a con-
Sunimer Comfort.
Get Ready for Warm Weather.
By a complete change In breakfast, at
this lime of the year, one can put the
bedy right to eo through the summer
comfortably. ,
Leave off meat, potatoes and heavy
body heating foods, and use the food that
will nourish the body and give reserve
force to the brain and, nervous system.
A most appetizing and healthful break
fast can be made on Grape-Nuts and
cream, some fruit and perhaps, two soft
boiled eggs this meal wilt furnish full
strength and nourishment up to the next
and has a remarkable effect on the body
during hot weather. Remember the cells
of the body you are now building will
last you 'into summer, so be sure and
build the kind that tend to keep a cool
body and level head.
One pounp of Grape-Nuts "has more
nourishment that the system will ab
sorbthan ten pounds of meat, without
any of the internal heat of meat that a
person wishes to avoid during the warm
season; its rich, nutty flavor added to the
delicate sweet of the gape sugar makes
a dish pleasing to the most critical taste.
You receive Grape-Nuts from the gro
cer ready to serve, as it has been thor
oughly cooked at tho factory by food ex
perts, and this saves heat from cooking
and time and exertion necessary In pre
paring ordinary food.
A change from the old breakfast to one
like this will refresh and invigorate the
system In a surprising manner and per
mit you to enjoy the pleasures of sum
mer in a cool, comfortable fashlpn when
your neighbors, differently fed, "will Txs

Intercut In Election.
Great interest la Being centered In the
approaching election In all the precincts
of this part of the county. The- Inde
pendent Republican ticket seems to tie
In the lead, and will probably poll- the
heaviest vote. The lending question to
be settled Is that of who shall be Road
Supervisor. Several Independent candi
dates are after tho omce In some of the
,preclncts, and will get a large vote, and
some of them may be elected over, the
regular nominees. . State and county canr
dldates have been numerous out here the
n.-Rt wppk. nmone them being George E.
Chamberlain, who addressed a large
gathering at this place on Thursday last.
A large number of voters have been dis
franchised because of the failure of the
notary public here to give the location of
the applicants' residence In the registra
tion blank. There is considerable feeling
over tho matter, but the victims will have
to secure affidavits from their neighbors
at the polls on election day. If they
choose to do so.
