Adjustment to Permit Union

PROBLEM OF PRESENT LEASE
If Harrlmnn Should Buy the Bonds
and Effect Merger of O. fc. G. In.
Southern Pacific, the Property
Could Be Handled.
"When the announcement was made that
Mr. Harriman had obtained control of the
Southern Pacific Company In the Interest
of fthc Union Pacific, railroad men Im
mediately leaped to the conclusion that the
Southern Pacific interests in Oregon (the
Oregon & California railroad) would be
yoked up with the O. R. & :n. ana tne
two put under tne management ui w-
eet of general officers. Outsiders did not
flgure out the details of this consolidation.
TVhen more attention came to be given
the matter it was found that there were
great obstacles to the coalition of the
two properties. One of the obstacles was
the unfailing annual deficit of about ?500,
000 in the Oregon & California. Another
was the lease of the Oregon & California
to the Southern Pacific Company, which
is to run until 1927.
By the terms of the lease the Southern
Pacific Company Is bound to pay interest
on the bonded debt of the Oregon & Cal
ifornia, $494,800 every six months. To de
fault in the payment of that Interest would
terminate the lease in a hurry and leave
the Oregon & California free to negotiate
with the O. R. & N. or any other com
pany, provided the German bondholders,
into whose hands the property would thea
fall, should be disposed to take such ac
tion. But the Southern Pacific could not
default in that Interest without default
ing on numerous other bonds it has guar
anteed and upon Its own direct issues
5100.336.000 direct and $183,297,000 on sub
sidiary properties, not counting the 519,792,
000 of 5 per cent bonds on the Oregon &
California. Default would mean the loss
of the 5200,000,000 of Southern Pacific stock,
and the company could not afford to. do
this to get rid of the relatively small sum
involved for Interest on the Oregon &
California bonds. Therefore the prospect
of getting rid of the Southern Pacific lease
in order to get the Oregon & California
and the O. R. & N. Into closer relation,
was regarded as dim. And even if a solu
tion of that problem could be found the
matter of so uniting the two properties
that the annual deficit of the Oregon &
California should not be loaded upon the
O. R. &. N. was one that called lor con
siderable ingenuity.
Those who cling to the theory that the
Oregon lines of the Harriman system are
to be united under one set of general offi
cers at Portland have figured out a. way
this may be accomplished. Instead of go
ing through the circumlocutory process
of defaulting in Interest and pissing
through bankruptcy court, a process that
would be attended with possibilities too
grave to permit It to be considered for a
moment, the whole thing might be neatly
and expeditiously done by Mr. Harrlman's
purchase of the bonds of the Oregon "&
California. He already owns the stock of
the company. If he should buy the bonds
now held by the Germans, he would be In
position to refinance the Oregon & Cali
fornia on a basis that would admit of
combining it with the O R. & N. or mak
ing any other disposition of it that might
be deemed wise. Mr. Harriman would in
that way actually become both parties to
the lease, and he ought not to find It a
difficult matter to agree w.th himself as
to what should be done with the property.
It would be practically a complete merger
of the Oregon & California into the South
ern Pacific Company, and President Har
riman, of the Southern Pacific, could then
do as he might please with the property
of the Oregon &. California.
But to purchase the bonds of the Ore
gon & California, supported by eo good
a guaranty as that of fhe Southern Pa
cific Company, will require a considerable
sum of money. The face of the bonds is
519.792,000, and they are assured 5 per cent
Interest In gold to July 1, 1927, when the
principal Is due in gold. This Is a con
siderable sum to take care of now, but it
must be met eventually, and the question
is jvhether It would not be wiser to ad
Just that debt now, when such adjustment
might be made the means of getting the
property on a better earning basis, than
to endure the present situation for 25
years longer and then have to pay just
the same. Railroad men expect Mr. Har
riman to arrange this matter within the
coming year, and it Is expected to result
in great good to Oregon.
FURNISH TO WIN.
(Continued from First Page.)
Republicans have heretofore had a ma
jority of from 200 to 400 for state offi
cers, but In county affairs the Democrats
have elected officers in one or two In
stances, and it Is expected they will do
so this time. In my opinion the Demo
crats will give Chamberlain for Governor
a small majority, with Raley for Attorney-General
and Wann for State School
Superintendent not far behind him. On
the county ticket the Sheriff and Clerk
will be Democratic with decisive major
ities. Representative and Surveyor will be
close. The Democratic vote will be tne
largest ever cast In the county.

Committee.

Republican Stnte and Legislative
Ticket Sure of Success.
MARSHFIELD. Or., May ZL The whole
Republican ticket, state and legislative,
will carry Coos County by 200 plurality.
Judge Bean running probably 50 ahead of
the ticket. The Republicans expect to
elect their entire county ticket, although
the Democrats claim to be able to gain
enough Republican votes to elect their
nominee for Sheriff. J. S. Lawrence. The
race for Sheriff will he close. Republi
cans feel confident that even the present
popular Democratic County Clerk, L. ii.
Hazard, will be defeated by the regular
Republican majority. R. D. Hume, for
Joint Representative for Coos and Curry,
will be returned. This county went 2G6
for McKinley, but the registration shows
2200 this year, against 2500 then. Many
Republicans now claim the county will go
300 Republican. Two hundred ls a con
servative estimate, and there is a prob
ability of our making a clean sweep.
J. W. BENNETT,
Chairman Republican Central Com.
Democrats Expect Fe-rr Ofllces.
MARSHFTELD. Or., May ZL Chamber
lain will gain heavily and may carry
Coos County. Tongue will run behind his
ttlcket, but will probably get a ma
jority. The remainder of the Republi
can ticket for state officers will have
a majority of probably 300 or more, ex
cept Crawford, who -will not receive his
party vote. The county ticket will bo
close on Sheriff and Clerk. Thrift, for
.Assessor, Democrat, will be elected.
IS PORTLAND READY TO BE TAMMANYIZED?
The conspiracy between the. Police de
partment and the District Attorney, look
ing to support of the fusion ticket by
the slums of Portland, has become so
universally known and understood that
all pretense at denial has been aban
doned. Every voter knows evactly the
effect of his action as to ifayor. It haa
been arranged that Mr. Inman Is to re
ceive the "wide open" vote, In return
for concessions that are to he made the
thieves, gamblers, Turnshops,- prosti
tutes and pimps of the North End.
Meanwhile vice holds high carnival In
the various disreputable quarters of the
city. There Is no flght upon It by the
police force, which Is "standing In" to
elect Inman. There Is no concern In the
District Attorney's office, which is concerned-only
In the success of the con
spiracy. :
As to the reception of this nefarious
undertaking, eo far as it relates to the
Mayoralty, there can be little doubt,
The decent element of the community will
vote for Judge Williams. It Is sufficiently
understood that the chief engineer and
promoter of the enterprise is Aleck Sweek,
who aspires to be the boss of the allied
official and "wide open" alliance a sort of
Richard Croker on a small icale. In whose
hands Mr. Inman, so far as the regula-
controlled The perpetration of this alii-
ance will be euluclont notice to the law
great many voters failed to register, and
the vote of the county will probably be
less than two years ago.
J. T. HALL,
Democratic Committeeman.
DOUGLAS COUNTY.
Both. Republican and Democrats
Confident of Success.
ROSEBURG, May 3L An Oregontan
representative called on Chairman K. 1.
Miller, of the Republicans, and Dexter
Rice of the Democrats, but "both pleaded
a lack of definite estimates as to the out
come of the election, and that they were
too buss to write statements. A summary
of the situation as nearly as can now be
determined is as follows:
Both the county chairmen. Dexter Rice
for the Democrats and Dr. K. I. Miller
for the Republicans, express confidence of
success. On the state ticket the general
belief is that George E. Chamberlain,
for Govcf nor, and James H. Raley, for Attorney-General,
will each run ahead of
his ticket. The former will probably carry
the county by 200 plurality and the latter
by a larger figure. The campaign has
been quiet, having been conducted in the
nature of a still hunt, especially on the
part of the 'Republicans. The- lack of
open expression makes the probable result
the harder to estimate.
JACKSON COUXTY.
Close on Stnte Ticket Members
of
Legislature Republican.
GOLD HILL, May 31. As to the prob
able result of the political contest in
Jackson County, I believe the Congres
sional, Legislative and county ticket Is
safe with an increased majority over two
years ago. The state ticket will be close.
The conservative vote of the Democratic
and Populist parties will undoubtedly
favor and support the present Republican
National, state and county administra
tions. A. E. KELLOGG.
Chairman Republican County Central
Committee.
Democrats Confident of Victory.
ASHLAND, May 3L Mr. Chamberlain
will carry Jackson County by fully 400
majority. The Democratic Legislative
ticket is certain of a good majority. The
remainder of the Democratic ticket will
be elected. On a general Democratic prop
osition, as to all candidates, this county
will stand In this election about 300 Demo
cratic M. F. EGGLESTON,
Chairman Democratic Executive Commit
tee. JOSEPIIIXE COUXTY.
Republican State Ticket "Will Have
250 Plurality.
GRANT'S PASS, May 31. The Repub
licans will carry Josephine County on the
state ticket by 250 votes. Judge Hale, for
Representative, will be elected by 400 to
500. The rest of the Republican ticket
will be elected by good majorities. The
only office the Democrats are certain of
Is Coroner, and they have no opposition.
Furnish will carry the county by 250 to
200. W. H. HAMPTON,
Chairman Republican County Central
Committee.
Democrats Count on 100 Majority.
GRANT'S PASS, May ZL-Chamberlaln
will run strong In Josephine County. His
plurality will be over 300. Smith for Rep
resentative will be elected by 200. Booth
for County Judge, Lovelace for Commis
sioner, and Kremer for Coroner are con
ceded. Dean and Slover for Sheriff and
Clerk, respectively, will go by at least
100: the other offices will "be close. Every
thing points to Democratic gains, and the
probable election of the entire county
ticket. H. D. NORTON,
Chairman Democratic County Central
Committee.
LAKE COUXTY.
TV111 Go Republican hy 300 Bitter
Flsrht for Senator.
EUGENE. May 3L The joint political
canvass between the Republican and
Democratic candidates closed with a rous
ing meeting in this city tonight. Pros
pects for a general Republican victory
were never better than at present. Tfie
Democrats have made a bitter flght on
two offices State Senator and Sheriff
and have shown a disposition to trade
votes on every other Issue for their can
didates. L. M. Travis and W. W. With
ers. Travis has made a very bitter flght
against Dr. William Kuykendall, pres
ent Incumbent of the office of Senator.
Dr. Kuykendall has proved an able and
efficient public servant, and it is general,
ly believed that he will be re-elected.
The Republican candidates for the lower
House are sure of election. Two years
ago L. T. Harris, candidate for Repre
sentative, ran 500 votes ahead of his tick
et, and his majority this time will be still
greater. It ls said that Harris will be a
candidate for Speaker of the House at
the coming session of the Legislature.
The fight for 8heriff promises to be an
Interesting one, it being conceded by the
Democrats that A. J. Johnson will give
Withers a hard run. As far as the
state ticket Is concerned. Lane County
will go Republican, from 250 to 350 votes.
Hon. W. J. Furnish will receive the nor
mal Republican majority in the county.
LINN COUNTY.
Careful Canvass Indicates Republi
can "Victory in the Main.
ALBANY, May 3L There has been no
change in the political situation In Linn
County In the past week, further than
the chances of M. A. Miller, the Demo
cratic candidate for State Senator to de
feat Senator Percy R. Kelly for re-election,
have materially grown less. Re
ports, which I deem reliable, from nearly
every precinct In the county, aro very
encouraging for a Republican victory. I
have no doubt about electing a major por
tion of the Republican ticket by a safe
majority. Mr. Chamberlain's appearance
In this county did not create any stam
pede to him. "While he will carry the
county, I do not believe his majority will
greatly exceed 300 votes, and I would not
be surprised If It was less than 300.
N. M. NEWPORT,
Chairman Linn County Republican Cen
tral Committee.
Democrats Equally as Confident.
ALBANY, Or.. May ZL The Indications
A all point to 700 majority for Chamberlain
and order element of the city to defeat
Inman and elect "Williams. Portland Is
not yet ready to be Tammanylzed.
But the full duty of the voter does not
stop with the Mayoralty. It extends to
the head of the ticket. One of the prin
clpal beneficiaries of the deal, as he ls
also one of its principal contracting
parties, is George E. Chamberlain, who is
thus employing the office of Public Prose
cutor to raise blmrelf to Governor. The
words of warning recently addressed by
the New York Journal to District At
torney Jerome, of New York, are fitting
here "No man ever raised himself to the
Governorship by the back door of the
Baloon." It becomes the duty of the Intel
ligent and conscientious voter to set the
seal of his disapproval upon this miscon
duct of the District Attorney. He has
gone loo far,. He should be taught In un
mistakable terms that 'there are things
"which even in good-fellowship cannot bo
forgiven.
A good, clean man, with no entangling
alliances with vice and crime In any form
is offered the suffrages of the people by
the Republican party for the office of
Mayor and also for the office of Governor.
The ballot Is a solemn thing, and Its ex
ercise should be solemnly discharged.
Alone with his conscience In the election
booth, every self-resDectlns: man should
mark his ballot for George H. TVllllams
and William J. Furnish.
In Linn County. The Democratic Coun
ty ticket will be elected. E. J. SEELEY.

tee of Linn County.
MARION COUXTY.
A Cnrefei Canvass Shoiri nn In
crease In the Republican Vote,
. SALEM. May 31. A thorough canvass
has been made of the county, and the
poll ehows that thero will be a large
increase In the Republican vote. The en
tire county and legislative ticket will be
elected. There will b some scratching
on "W. J. Furnish, but he will carry the
county by a good majority. "W. H. Hob
son, for Joint Senator from Marion and
Linn Counties, will receive a good vote
in this county, where he Is well known
and universally respected. The person
al fight that has been carried on against
E. M. Croisan. candidate for State Sen
ator, haa disgusted the people, and Mr.
Croisan will probably run ahead of his
ticket. Numerous false stories have been
circulated about J. F. Stelwer, candidate
for Sheriff, all of which were promptly
exploded. The quiet and gentlemanly man
ner in which he has conducted his can
vass and his well-known ability and
standing as a citizen will cause hlfl vote'
to be large. TV. J. CULVER,
Chairman Republican County Cen. Com.
Democrats Make Biff Claims.
SALEM. May 31. At the opening of the
campaign and subsequent to a partial
canvass of the county, by Mr. Chamber
lain, I was satisfied that our candidate
for Governor would carry Marlon Coun
ty by possibly 500 votes, but I am now
confident that Mr. Chamberlain will car
ry the county by 500 majority or more. I
base thlfl estimate on the expressions I
have received from prominent Republicans
throughout the county, and the marked
Indifference that ls evinced by many
Republicans. General conditions are fa
vorable for the election of the whole Dem
ocratic county ticket and a part of our
legislative ticket TV. H. DOWNING,
Chairman Democratic County Cen. Com.
MORROW COUXTY,
Republicans "Will Have Majorities of
100 to 250.
HEPPNER, May 31. My estimate on the
majorities on state. Congressional and.
Legislative tickets are as follows: Furnish
will carry Morrow County by 100: William
son by 250; Scrlber for joint Senator, 140;
Phelps, Representative, 175.
W. M. SMEAD,
Chairman Republican County Central

HEPPNER, May 3L There can be but
one result so far as the vote for Gover
nor ls concerned In Morrow Counyr, al
though there Is about 300 majority in. fa
vor of the Republican party. Mr. Cham
berlain will carry it by at least 100.
J. W. MORROW,

POLK COUXTY.
Result TVHI Be Close With Odds In
Favor of Republicans.
INDEPENDENCE, May 3L Polk Coun
ty, in the past, has been swinging In the
balance, politically, sometimes going Re
publican, but usually electing a mixed
ticket. This year will be no exception
to the rule. I deem the county very close,
but am of the opinion that Furnish will
carry It by a small majority.
W. TV. PERCrVAL,
Chairman Republican County Central
Committee.
Democrats Claim County hy 100.
" DALLAS, May ZL Under ordinary con
dltions. Polk County Is Republican by at
least 150. The majority of voters are dis
posed, however. In electing state and
county officers, to consider the qualifica
tions of candidates, rather than party
ties. Chamberlain will carry the county
by more than 100, and It ls not improbable
that all the Democratic nominees on the
state ticket will receive somo majority.
The probabilities are strong, too, that
nearly all the Democratic county nom
inees will be elected. The flght Is cen
tered on the candidates for Sheriff. Clerk
-and Representatives, On these the result
Is In. doubt OSCAR HAYTER,
Secretary Democratic County Central
Committee.
SHERMAN' COUNTY.
State Republican Ticket "Will Come
Out With 100 aiajority.
"MORO. May 3L Judging by a close can
vass, I believe Sherman County will give
at least 100 majority for the Republican
ticket, and as there Is not the least dis
satisfaction In the party, as far as the
state ticket Is concerned, I believe Mr.
Furnish will get as many votes as any
one on the state ticket. If he does not
get as many votes as some others on the
ticket it will not be because any Repub
licans have not voted for him, bufit will
be that some Democrats have voted for
the others on the Republican ticket.
W. H. MOORE.
Chairman Republican County Central
Committee.
Mr. Barnett, ot Wasco. Democratic
committeeman, says politics ls very
quiet, and he does not know of anything
that will make any radical change. He
believes Furnish will carry the county
by 40 to 65, and Williamson will carry the
party vote of 100 to 125.
TILLAMOOK: COUXTY.
Republican State Ticket Will Have
About 300 Majority.
TILLAMOOK, May 31. After making a
poll of the county I believe Furnish and
the state ticket will carry the county by
a majority of 270 to 323, while the county
ticket will carry by a majority of about
200. A. W. SEVERANCE,
Chairman Republican County Central
Committee.
Sam. Downs, chairman of the Democratic
County Central Committee, was seen by

Majority of 250. .
THE DALLES, Or., May 31. The Re
publican campaign, in Wasco County Is
in better shape than there was any rea
son to expect It would be previously. It
has been very gtlfying to the county
central committee to note the united ac
tion taken by the Republicans through
out the county. A very conservative es
timate Is that Wasco County will go
Republican by 250 majority, of which Mr.
Furnish will be given the full vote. The
whole legislative ticket will rece.ve the
Republican majority In this county. It
ls also expected that the entire county
ticket will be elected by majorities ex
ceeding those mentioned. .
HENRY L. KUC'K,
Chairman Republican County Cen. Com.
Democrats Very Hopeful.
THE DALLES. Or., May 3L The en
tire campaign In Wasco County has been
one continued success for the Democratic
party, whose gains have surprised the
most sanguine. Gratifying results of
Democratic workers throughout the vari
ous precincts have been evident, espec
ially since Mr. Chamberlain's visit to the
county. In. my opinion, he will carry
Wasco by 000 votes. The speech of Hon.
Charles Fulton, delivered here last Wed
nesday evening, has1 turned against
Furnish in the town and its Immediate
vicinity. The prospect looks bright for
electing the majority of the county
ticket. F. A. SEUFERT.
Chairman.
WASIIIXGTOX COUXTY.
Outlook Favorable for the Entire
Republican Ticket.
HILLSBORO, May ZL The situation In
this county Is complicated by reason of
there being so many tickets In the field.
Local matters will cut considerable fig
ure In some parts of the county. The
Prohibitionists claim that they will poll
a much larger vote than usual. The op
position Is making a hard fight on the
Governorship and part of the county
ticket, but it is not expected that Fin
nish's vote will be very greatly affected.
There will probably be some scratching
both ways on the county ticket. Taking
all things into consideration, the out
look is favorable for the election of the
entire Republican ticket by good majori
ties. BENTON BOWMAN,
Chairman Republican County Cen. Com.
Democrats Much Encouraged.
HILLSBORO, Or., May 31. The outlook
for Mr Chamberlain, in Washington
County, is all that could be desired, and
we expect to carry the county for him
bv 150 majority. Scores of Republicans
who never beforo have scratched their
ticket openly announce that they will
not support Mr. Furnish, and are work
ing for Chamberlain. We expect to elect
the Union county and legislative -ticket
with majorities from 50 to 400.

Chairman Union County Committee.
"WHEELER. COUXTY.
Republican Candidates Will Have
About 175 Votes to Sparc.
FOSSIL, May 3L Wheeler County will
give the entire Republican ticket safe ma
jorities. The Republican state ticket will
have In the neighborhood of 175 majority.
On Governor the majority may fall short
25 votes, as the Democrats' whole flght
Is being waged on Furnish. Williamson
will have at least 200 majority. The Leg
islative ticket will run up with the state
ticket, and may run ahead of It. If Fur
nish does run a few votes behind the
ticket In this county It will be because
Republicans, generally thinking his elec
tion safe, have not been eo aggressive as
they would have been under other condi
tions, while the Democrats, feeling they
had a chance to elect Chamberlain, have
done their level best to do so from the
start. "W. W. STEIWER,
Chairman Republican County Central
Committee.
Democrats Concede County Lost.
FOSSIL, Or.. May 31. I think there will
be little change In the vote for state of
ficers since two years ago, when the Re
publicans had about 175 Majority, except
ing that George E. Chamberlain" will run
ahead of his ticket in this county from
75 to 100 votes. In my judgment. On the
other hand, Butcher may run behind .his
ticket, as Williamson Is well known In 'the
part of Wheeler County, which was taken
from Crook County, Mr. Wlllamson's
home. CHARLES G. MILLET,
Chairman Democratic County Central
Committee.
YAMHILL COUNTY.
Republicans "Will Give Their Nom
inees 200 Majority.
M'MINNVILLE. Or.. May 3L After a
very careful canvass of every precinct
In Yamhill County, thre Is no reason
able doubt as to Furnish receiving a ma
jority over Chamberlain of 150 to 200 votes,
and that our legislative ticket and coun
ty ticket will be elected from top to bot
tom. As the canvasa progresses the Re
publicans are rapidly falling Into line, and
If every county In the state stands by
the head of the ticket as Yamhftl Coun
ty will. W. J. Furnish will be elected by
12,000 majority. W. T. VINTON,
Chairman Republican Central Com.
The chairman of the Democratic Cen
tral Committee, when seen by an Oregon

to publish; In fact, had no formulated

AFTER MANY YEARS
Of suffering from kdney disease, Miss
Minnie Ryan, of St, Louis, Mo., found
a complete cure result from the use of
Dr. Piercers Golden -Medical Discovery.
jx is such cures
as this which es
tablish the sound
ness of Dr. Pierce's
theory: "Diseases
which originate in
the stomach must
be cured through
the stomach."
Every olher organ
depends on the
stomach for its
vitality and vigor.
For by the stom
ach and its asso
ciated organs of
digestion and nu
trition the food
which is eaten is
converted into nu
triment, which, in
the form of blood,
is the sustaining
power of the body
ana eacn organ ot
it. When the
stomach is dis
eased the food sup
ply of the body 13
cut' down, the or
gans are starved, and the weakness of
starvation shows itself in lungs, heart,
liver, kidneys or some other organ.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition, and
so cures disease of other organs which
have originated through deficient nutri
tion or impure blood.
"I had been suffering with kidney trouble
twenty years," writes Miss Minnie Ryan, of
1537 Louisiana Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., "and I
had doctored with a number of the best physi
cians. Two vears ago I commenced taking your
'Golden Medical Discovery ' and 'Favorite Pre
scription ' and took also several vials of Doctor
Pierce's Pellets. I took eight bottles (four of
ach), and I feel now perfectly cured.' .
