L : .. J "" rv. j-s.- f & ? - ,. ,- THE SUNDAY OKEGONIAN, POIPLANB, JULY 31, 1904. 15 STATE IN CONTROL Country Districts to Guide De velopment League, THE PUN WILL ADD HARMONY Organization of Convention Left En tirely in Hands of Delegates From Outside Counties Subsidiary Societies to Be Formed. The general committee on reception and entertainment appointed by the Commer cial Club for handling the delegates to the Oregon Development League Conven tion -which is to meet on Tuesday next, held a meeting yesterday afternoon in the Commercial Club rooms when plans for the entertainment of the delegates were laid and a general course of action was mapped out for the committee. This committee is composed of 13. L. Thompson, chairman; S. M. Mears, Maurice B. Wakeman, R. J. Holmes, W. 3B. Glafke, Charles L. Mastlck, Hugh Mc Gulre, Paul Bates, A. M. Smith, L. H. Parker, P. TV". Baltes, A. F. Biles, E. Ehr man, Whitney L. Boise, W. TV. Cotton, Frank C. Baker, A. H. Devers, Thomas Gray, George TV. Hazen, Ellis C. Hughes, George Lawrence, Jr., F. A. NItchy, L TV. Pratt, R. L. Stevens. Slg Sichel, TV. E. Coman and A. L. Craig. What the committee was expected to do was outlined at the meeting, and what he work of the convention wanted was explained. In the flrst place, there have been 857 delegates appointed, a majority of which number will be present at the session. These men will be from all over the state, and it will be the work of the committee to recele them when they come, to see that they secure seats in the convention, to provide for their entertain ment and to furnish any information de sired concerning the convention or the city. One of the main things sought at this meeting will be to overcome the old fal lacy that Portland Is after everything and Is always working for the city alone to the detriment of the state.at large. Port land cannot exist without the country dis tricts of the state, neither can these dis tricts prosper so well without the help of Portland. The organization of the convention, therefore, will be left entirely in the hands of the people from over the state. No definite plans have been made for the organization, it being the policy of the management to wait until the delegates are here and have found out something of the -work that is expected, before any officers are spoken of, or any constitution drafted. The general plan of organization will be to incorporate the body Into a league of many small societies, all working for the development off the state. Each so ciety will bo expected to work first for its own section, but to work in harmony with the general league. A common letter head will be used in all correspondence and a general plan of advertisement will be worked out. The committee on entertainment will be present at all of the meetings of the con vention and will explain to those who do not know, the plans of the organization. On Tuesday morning the committee will assemble at the Marquam Grand Theater at 9 o'clock to take charge of the delegates as they arrive for the opening of the con vention, at 10. In the evening the committee will be on hand at the Commercial Club rooms to have the general supervision of the re ception to be given to the delegates and their friends who are with them. On Wednesday afternoon the committee will meet at the corner of Third and Yamhill streets to be present at the trolley ride over the city, which will start at 3 o'clock. The committee is to be a general Information bureau and will be on hand at all of the sessions of the convention. All of the plans for the convention are now made and every indication points to the largest gathering every held in the city. The following names of delegates were received yesterday, making the total number appointed 57: Yamhill County, named by Judge B. F. Rhodes: Henry Gee, W. T. Macy. R. L. Conner, W. L. Warren, George F. Hauser and John Wortman, all of McMlnnvllle; Hon. Lee Laughlln and A. C. Goodrich, of North Yamhill; C. J. Payne, of Ballvue; R. L. Harris, Dayton. Hood River Delegates Organize. HOOD RIVER, Or., July 30. (Special.) The delegates who will represent Hood River at the meeting of the Oregon De velopment League in Portland next Tues day organized at a meeting last night In tne rooms of the Commercial Club by electing EL L. Smith chairman of the dele tion. The Hood River delegation will leave 'Hood. River well stocked with In formation concerning the town and valley, and every effort will be made to advance the Interests of this part of Oregon. The Hood River delegates have secured head quarters at the Perkins Hotel. MEET ABUSES WITH JUSTICE Constitutional Amendment Better Than Proposed Flat-Salary Law. CROT. Or., July 25 (To the Editor.) I am Just as anxious to put a stop to the "extra agant overpayment of state officials" as any man in the state of Oregon. I ha-ie to work as hard as any man to pay my mite of this unjust burden, but the method proposed for the Legislature to pass a "flat salary law" to end the burden is to make bad worse, for It is to set an example of the lawmaking power -violating law. This is pernicious, and has a tendency to edu cate the people Into evasion of law and constitutions A minority has no hope of a preserva tion of their llberltes sae by a strict ad herence to obedience to a constitution by the Legislature and courts. Shall the peo ple of Oregon ask the Legislature to pass a law fixing the salary of any officer at any other figures than those named In the con stitution? Article 13, section 1, says: "The Governor shall recelie an annual salary of $1500. The Secretary of State shall receive an annual salary of $1500. The Treasurer of Stato shall receive an annual salary of $600 The Judges of the Supremo Court shall each receive an annual salary of $2000. They shall recede no fees or per quisites whatever for the performance of any duties connected with their respective offices." This seems to say only one thing, and that Is that the salaries named shall be tbetr respective salaries as long as this con stitution shall be Oregon's constitution,' for the concluding clause of this same section says: "And the compensation of officers. If not fixed by this constitution, shall be pro vided by law." This latter clause says sal aries "not fixed by this constitution" can be fixed by law. As most of the framers of this constitution are dead, it would be im possible to ascertain what they meant or what the people understood it to mean if there was an ambiguity In this language. This effect to explain language so plain as this to mean that the salary of these officials is not fixed by the constitution, is not good public policy, any more than we are "doing by adding to these officers in creased salaries by creating new offices and electing them by the Legislature to those new offices. "We have a remedy, and that is to change the constitution and either give the Legis lature the same power as It now has with other officers to fix salary from time to time, as circumstances demand an Increase or decrease, or do It by the initiative. The Republican Legislature cannot afford to vio late the constitution because some former one did it simply to fix salaries already fixed by the constitution. The common- sense method to chance these salaries is to amend the constitution, or else if there is need for it call a Constitutional Convention and adopt a now constitution. Fixing salaries by law, not fixed by the constitution, was fixing them by the Legis lature when this constitution was rlt- ten, and it is a question of doubt whether under the new amendment the people can change their salaries by law,- or only by amending the constitution. While I am will- ins to adroit we may change them by an act of the Legislature or by the people un der the new amendment, yet I contend it is not good public policy to do so, nor do I believe if any one was to appeal to our courts If -ne did so that our Supreme Court weuld declare the act constitutional. They and the other officers might receive the ad ditional pay as long as no one objected by suit in court. It was used in the lost campaign to aid Chamberlain's election that if elected he would receive only the $1500 named in the constitution. He may never hae authorized any such methods to obtain an election, and as he doubtless receives the same pay as his predecessor, therefore is be or the members of the Supreme Court to blame because the Legislature appropriates money to pay thorn more than the constitu tion fixes as their salary, by receiving the money appropriated? Is the reception of this money by the court or Governor an el dence, as has been argued, that the Su preme Court would decide It was constitu tional for the Legislature to pass a "flat" (fat) salary law? PETER. A BUKC0ED PARTY. And the Part That David B. Hill Played In the Game. CHympIa. Standard (Detn.). It now seems that Judge Parker had really sent a telegram to David B. Hill, before his nomination at St. Louis on Friday, the .day before, to bo more specific demanding a declaration for the gold standard in the Democratic platform; that the telegram was to Hill and was suppressed by him; that he never mentioned it to the sub-committee on resolutions, nor in the full committee, and that ho allowed the motion of Senator Bailey, of Texas, that the financial resolution and the Income tax plank be eliminated to pre vail, without protest. This settles, be yond the slightest doubt, that Hill simply lied when he assured Bryan in reply to a number of direct questions that he did not know how Judge Par ker stood on the great financial issue of the last two National campaigns. The despicable subterfuge of sup pression of the Instruction, which came to him as the medium by which to reach the convention, is but a cul mination of the perfidy which has marked the individuality of thonan for years past. Had the telegram been presented to the convention, it would doubtless have resulted In a wholly different termination of the main work of the convention. It could not have resulted in a patchwork product that amounts to a quasl-indorscment of the gold standard. It would never have led to the selection of Judge Parker if it had been known that he was a radi cal supporter of monometallism, doubts on which had been prevalent from tho claim that he had supported Bryan during his two campaigns and the falsehood of Hill in impressing- the be lief that tho Judge was not at least a violent and uncompromising advocate of the gold unit. The fact was that the Bryan element in the convention, largely representing the smaller states and rural districts, if not strong enough to rule that body, had at least enough power to render any plans formulated without conces sions abortive, and it was this knowl edge which led Mr. Hill to adopt the tricks of knights of the green cloth to accomplish his objocts. Nothing can be gained at this time by ignoring facts, however unpalatable they may be, and It is Indeed well that they be understood early In the cam paign to be either admitted or con troverted. A fair understanding Is de manded by sincerity and good faith. If the party has been buncoed by trick sters, let the fact be known, and that party can never be blamed thereafter for making the best possible effort under ad verse circumstances. Understanding. Atchison Globe. You may have heard thlg before: A girl In going ovor a crossing, lifted her skirts. "You held, your skirts up pret ty high," said a young man who walked over tho crossing behind her. "Well, haven't I perfect right?" retorted the young woman. "Yes," he admitted, "and there is nothing the matter with your left, either." The Pacific Bridge Company has lately bought and put In operation a steam shovel for use in filling the gulches and large fills along the route of the City & Suburban Rail, way Company, In South Portland. The outfit Is now at work near tje Slavln road, where It Is dally scooping out from 1200 to 1500 cubic yards of dirt to be dumped in the gulches where in the pest the old wooden trestles have stood. The shovel and cars to use with It cost the bridge company $15,000. but the outfit will more than pay for Itself MORE CHINESE RAIDED SHERIFF WORD BREAKS UP A CHUCKLUCK GAME. Another Opium Den Is Also Caught in Operation and Smoking Par aphernalia Is Confiscated.. "With blood in his eye and a gun In his hand, Sheriff Word last night de scended upon a Chinese chuckluck gam bling joint on Oak street near Second, within half a block of the police station, and took therefrom seven sons of Confu cius who persisted in opposing the laws of tho state of Oregon, together with all their gambling paraphernana and avail able coin. After seeing the Chinks safely to the County Jail the Sheriff made another trip, this time to the cor ner of Fourth and Pjne streets, where an opium Jon was running full blast, and took therefrom one son of Confucius and one son of Satan whose skin was white. DEATH OF BRIGHT 13-YEAR-OLD GIRL Mr. and Mrs. J. IT. Turner mourn the loss of their eldest daughter, Jessie, a bright and loving little girl of Id, who died last week, after a painful illness, at her parents' home, 803 Kerby street. In her nhort life, ehe endeared herself to her many friends by her exception ally bright and loable disposition. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. B. if. Bliss and Rev. J. H. Allen. Her last resting-place In Lone Fir Cemetery was made beau tiful by the many floral tokens sent by sympathizing friends. But men were dreaming pleasantly under tho influence of dope, and will awake this morning to the bitter reality of things legal and Illegal. The flrst raid occurred a little before 11 o'clock last night. With his force qf deputies the Sheriff marched down Sec ond street and turned down Oak. He paused before the doomed den Just long enough to collect his breath and then he tramped up the stairs. The Chinks beard him coming. Without trusting to the new Joss, recently placed In their temple, to get them out of the difficulty, they slammed the door, turned out the lights and scrambled for places of con cealment. Sheriff Word broke open the door and entered. The lights were turned on and the fun began. Three of the seven Chinese in the room grew ugly and attempted to try conclusions with the Sheriff's posse. In tho course of a quar ter of an hour they were subdued and placed in shackles. The other four made divers attempts to escape through win dows, but were prevented, and were mardhed to the County Jail with their four pugilistic brothers. In the room was found a full outfit for playing ehuckluck. Tables, chips and money were confiscated, though the Sher iff succeeded In getting only $S in coin. The establishment was operated by Chlng Wa, who wa3 later In the night released on $250 cash ball, which was deposited by a Chinese Shylock with an eye to busi ness. After the raid on the gambling estab lishment the Sheriff took his force of dep uties and drilled to the corner of Fourth and Pine stredts, where there is a sort of an upper Chineso district. Up two flights of stairs the Sheriff and his men found an opium den In full running order. Only two men were In the room at the time, the others either having left earlier in the night or having fled at the approach of the Sheriff, one Chinaman and one white man were dreaming the dreams of tho dope-flend, and the depuues took tnem to the County Jail to finish the dream. Pipes were confiscated, and several ounces of opium were captured. "These Chinese dens are tho worst in the line," said Sheriff Word last night, "but they are going to be attended to the same as the others. The law says not to gamble, and the law means Chinamen as well as other people. I will raid every STEAM SHOVEL AT WORK IN SOUTH PORTLAND den of this character that I find is in op eration." The Chinamen are getting exceedingly cunning and arc preparing for visits from the officers, a fact made plain by the preparations made before the raid on Couch street last week, and by the man ner in which, the Sheriff and his men were received on Oak street last night. It is the. belief of the officers that they have a system of signaling, and that In the opium den raided last night there were other Chinese who escaped when the warning was given, before the officers could climb the stairs. SHOT AT UEGE0 PICNIC. Charles Johnson Is Wounded by His Disgruntled Rival. During a negro picnic held at "Washing ton Gardens, at the corner of "Washing ton and Twenty-third streets, last night, Charles "Wolfe fired three shots at Charles Johnson, one striking Johnson, and in flicting a painful wound in his left shoul der. The battle was tho result of a grudge. Wolfe was formerly in the good graces of a North End woman of his complexion who goes by the name of "-Babe" Smith. On July 21 he went to Seattle, and while Jessie Turner. there learned that Johnson had usurped his throne. He returned immediately to Portland on an early morning train, went to the woman's apartments, found Mr. Johnson there and forced him to flee, after which he cut up Johnson's clothes with a razor. Wolfe was ar rested and charged by Johnson with the destruction of personal property. He paid a fine and sworo to get even with Johnson. Last night the two men met at the picnic at Washington Gardens, and Wolfe called Johnson to one side, as though to talk over matters. As soon as Johnson stepped away from the crowd Wolfe drew a revolver from his pocket and fired three shots at Johnson, one of which took effect In his left shoulder, inflicting a wound that was painful, but not serious. A number of picnickers rushed toward the men, and Wolfe took to his heels. He boarded a street-car and started toward the city. The police were notified and Captain Moore detailed Sergeant Car penter and Officer Reslng to meet the cars coming from Washington Gardens and search all negroes for guns. When the car arrived there was a negro on It and the officers caused him to alight. He seemed somewhat startled at the pro cedure, but said nothing. When he was searched there was found on him a Colt's magazine gun, a -very ugly weapon. He was taken to tho station by the officers and turned over to Captain Moore. It then developed that the negro was not Wolfe, but S. Washington, and that while he had been to Washington Gardens he had left before the shooting. Later Johnson put in an appearance at the station and positively stated that Washington was not the man who shot him. Up to a late hour this morning Wolfo had not been found. In the Fashion. Atchison Globe. It is a fad to name a new "style of dress. For instance, a pretty party dress style Is called "The First Kiss." while a widow's second mourning is styled "A Dream of Paradise." Following the cus tom, a dress an Atchison girl appeared in has been called the "Papa Roared" style. She has so much lace on It, and It cost so much, that It Is dangerous to appear in his presence with it on. in a short time, as It doer away with the work of an army of men. One man to operate the shovel and an engineer to look after the engine la all the force necessary to keep two trains of patent dump cars busy night and day hauling away tho dirt that Is taken from the mountain Ide. The present contract of filling In under four bridges will necessitate the removal of more than 150,000 cubic yards of dirt. tfO ESTATE AND NO HEIRS ADMINISTRATOR OF F. SMITH'S PROPERTY FfLES ACCOUNT. Deceased Was Supposed to Have Been Wealthy, but Little of Value ' Is Found. There will be several disappointed peo ple when the final account In the estate of Fred Smith, horsetrader, of this city and Woodburn, is examined. The final ac count was filed yesterday in the County Court, the administrator being John Dris coll, and considerable time has been, spent trying to find Smith's heirs, or the large amount of property he was thought to have left. Smith died Intestate Jn this city in Feb ruary, 1SO0, and after Edward Holman had been appointed special administrator, he resigned and Driscoll was appointed. One of the flrst things the new administrator discovered was that Smith died without heirs, and in explaining the reason for the lapse of time up to the filing of the final account, the administrator says: "It wa3 a mooted question as to whether or not a County Court had any probate jurisdiction over the estate of such dece dent, even for the purpose of authorizing and directing the payment of his debts and the expense of administration out of his property. In 1003 the Oregon Legisla ture amended the statutes on the subject of escheats and expressly conferred on County Court probate jurisdiction over the estates of decedents dying without heirs, for the purpose of paying their debts out of the property left by them." The administrator latterly feared that proceedings would be Instituted to escheat the property to the manifest loss of tho creditors. Mr. Driscoll has approved claims aggre gating 5243.18, and rejected claims aggre gating 51349.S2. Of the latter, three claims, largely for board and lodging, amounting to ?S39, were filed by H. L. Koester, and one claim for $450 by Annie Galllnan for over two years' service as housekeeper. Theassets which have come to light only amount to $333.23, and the disbursements are $104. S3. Application is made for an order to pay $75 for legal expenses. Gammans & Clarkley represent the administrator. Judge Webster appointed September 3 as the time for hearing objections to the final account. Say Gambling Is No Crime. Demurrers were filed yesterday In the Circuit Court in the cases where charges of gambling are made by the State of Oregon against Peter Grant and others, August Erlckson and Eugene Blazler. The defendants demur to the information filed against them, for the reason that the facts stated do not constitute a crime. Court Notes. To recover $1000 and $150 attorney's fees, on a promissory note which matured in January, 1895, action was begun yesterday in the Stato Circuit Court by R. W. Wil bur, trustee, against Benjamin Fallows and others. Emmons & Emmons brought suit In the State Circuit Court yesterday to recover $299 and Interest from R. A. Fifield, on the complaint of tho Hefferlln Mercan tile Company of Montana. The action Is brought to recover on a Judgment given against the defendant In the District Court of the Sixth Montana Judicial Dis trict. An answer was filed yesterday by the de fendants In the damage suit Instituted by C. W. Fredenthal against Brown & Mc Cabe, for the Injury Fredenthal sustained In June, 1903, when be was struck by a piece of lumber In the hold of the steamer Eva. The defendants answer that Fred enthal'a injuries were occasioned by hit want of reasonable care. Making Butter and Cheese. Country Life in America. A generation ago the making of butter and cheese was a home industry- These familiar occupations have lately develop ed into special manufacturing Industries conducted In establishments known as creameries and cheese-factories; and the effect of this development has been to change the character of dairy farming as well as of dairy manufacture. They have also raised the quality of the manufac tured product, and have produced such a uniformity of grade and continuity of supply as to establish the products as im portant commodities in the general mar ket and to make the factorymen promi nent on boards of trade. Of all the butter, cheese and condensed milk factories, there are In New York State which Is the leading dairy state more than 2100 establishments. They con stitute the most important market-establishment enterprise in the agriculture of the Empire State.

ROCHESTER, N. T., July 16. (Special Correspondence.) A remarkable case, that threatens to upset the theory and prac tice of medicine, is reported from "Wil mington, O. The human heart has been made to beat again in the body of a woman given up to death by doctors. The credit for this startling restora tion is due to that distinguished savant J of this city, Thomas jr. Adkin, Frores eor of Vltaopathy, and President of the Institute of Physicians and Surgeons. Previous experiments on animals, like those made by Loeb, of Chicago, and Weaver, of Philadelphia, succeeded In making the heart beat for only a short time after death, and even this partial success probably was due merely to re flex muscular action induced by saline Injections. But in this case Professor Adkin ac complished a ar more wonderful result. By an entirely different method. an4 in an entirely different way, he not only made the heart beat again, but made it keep on beating, and today the woman, a Mrs. M. E. Brackney, is alive and well, instead of being in her grave. The history of medicine, from the time of Galen to the present day, falls to give an explanation of this phenomenal res toration that seems to rival tho miracles of ancient writ. The facts in the case are so unusual and revolutionary that an Interview was sought -with Professor Adkin, to learn, if possible, the details of thla wonderful case. At first he seemed reluctant to talk for publication, but finally wa3 in duced to tell of what is undoubtedly one of the most marvelous discoveries In the annals of science, a discovery that gives this man a strange and far-reaching con trol over human life, over disease and death. "Yes, I restored Mrs. Brackney to life and health, made her heart beat again," said the professor; "but It Is a mistake to think that thla Is the flrst or only case of the kind where I have been equally successful when drugs and doc tors have failed. I have cured hundreds of men and women in the same way, of diseases pronounced Incurable, rescued them when they were on the edge of the grave, and restored them to health and etrngth without useless drugs or the surgeon's knife." "Would you mind giving the names of some of these people?" "Not at all. There Is nothing I want concealed or kept secret. I court the wildest publicity. I want the whole world to know what I am doing, so that others may be saved from an early death or lifelong misery. You are more than welcome to investigate any or all of tho cures I have made of hopeless Invalids given up to die by doctors. You can read letters from my former patients, interview or -write to the men and wo men themselves, or you can go over my records and files and see for yourself that I succeed where physicians and medicines have failed. One case that I remember particularly Is that of Mrs. I A. Phillips, of Trawlck, Texas. She had been bedridden for five years, in twelve different hospitals, and under the treat ment of various doctors besides. All failed to cure her of the complication nf diseases from which she was suffer ing and told her they could do no more. J that ner case was nopeiesa. ucu x iuuk. her case it seemed as if she was beyond the aid of any human power. But, by uMng- the knowledge given me by my discovery, I cured her when -she was so "I think, my dear," remarked the party boss. "I have found a man to sweep the state." "Fine," she replied, "but can you find a girl to sweep the parlor' Confronted once more with thla Issue, the strong frame ot the great statesman shook with anguish.
