MASS MEETING AT COLFAX Harold Preston, Aspirant for United States Senator, States Hts View Senator Turner Sends a Tele- Craxu Xo Pledges Exacted. COLFAX, Wash., June 7. About 200 people of all classes attended the mass convention held here today to pledge prospective candidates for legislative po sitions to support Governor McBrlde in his efforts to secure a railroad commis sion bill and destroy the railroad lobby. The meeting was presided over by a Pro hibitionist. The secretary was a Demo crat, and It was addressed by Republi cans, Democrats and Socialists. After the meeting had adjourned and the au dience started out, Hon. John Canutt, ex representatlve, a Populist, offered a reso lution Indorsing McBride's action and favoring a railroad Commission. Canutt and one other voted for it, and five votes were cast against the motion. Harold Preston, of Seattle, candidate for United States Senator, was the prin cipal speaker, and devoted nearly an hour to advocating a railroad commission. In reply to a question by a farmer., he said he favored Government ownership of railroads in time, but thought the coun try not ready for it jiow. He was listen ed to attentively and frequently ap plauded. The following telegram from Senator Turner was read by Harry Corn well, and rcrelvcd liberal applause: "I have no enmity against the railroads. They are important factors In the growth and development of our state. But they have too much power for evil as well as good to permit them to work their will without restraint. They are public agen cies, created by law to serve the public on a fair and Just basis. They ought to be controlled by law, und ought to be will ing to be controlled. Holding these views, I drafted and advocated the pro viso of our state constitution requiring the Legislature to pass laws regulating freights and fares and establishing a rail road cqmmlssion. I am strongly Impress ed today with the necessity for such laws as I have ever been. The State Legislature should carry out the impera tie mandate of the constitution and es tablish a railway commission, with am ple powers to control the public agencies. The National laws should be so that the interstate commerce commission may do for interstate commerce what a state commission would be enabled to do for state commerce. I have expressed my views on this subject on a number of oc carlons in the past. So long as 1 remain in public life the foregoing views will govern my conduct.' State Senator Oliver Hall, Dr. G. B. Wilson, a candidate for State Senator; William Goodyear, Democratic candidate for Senator, artd Ex-Iteprcsenratlve La follrtte. Republican, and Thomas Neill, a Socialist, addressed the meeting. All but Neill favored a commission. NEW OREGON CORPORATIONS. Articles Filed at Snlem During- the "Week Jnst Closed. ' SALEM, Or., June 7.
