TACOMA, Wash., Oct, 56. (Special.)
Tlrt. D. L. Radar, of Portland, Is In hot
water today over utterances in a lecture
last night, when he ad he would not al
io his children to go to school with Jap
anese children, because they have no
conception of what. Is morally' right or
wrong. He declared that It Is not really
their fault, for ;the custom has -come
down to them from generations past.
:i'ntil this attitude has been curbed."
ho. said, "and until they have learned
many vital things. I believe they should
not be allowed to attend school with
American children."
Superintendent of Schools Yoder. sev
eral of the principals and the, ministers
unite In saying they have never found
a .piore quiet, orderly class of. scholars
than the young Japanese In our schools.
They obey explicitly what is told them,
are, bright and learn rapidly, . do not
bother anybody, and are well behaved.
Dr. Rader's statement is declared to be
ridiculous and unfair.
H. Takinshi. graduate of Princeton Uni
versity, after ire had gone through th
colleges In his own country and who has
a chain of Oriental stores- along the
coast, has two children attending the pub
li schools. He said today:
"Dr. Rader's statement is based on
prejudice. He does not know the Jap
anese people or he would not have talked
that way. His remarks grew out of
hatred for us, and he will regret them."
Rev. D. L. Rader Is editor of the Paelflo
Christian Advocate, which Is the official
organ of the Methodist Episcopal
Church in the Northwest. He was elected
tosithls position at the General Confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal Church
three years ago at Los Angeles. He
made a tour of Japan about a year ago
for the benefit of his health. Previous to
his election to the editorship of the Chris
tian Advocate In Portland he was pastor
of the First Methodist Episcopal Church
at Tacoma.

lain. The report Is self explanatory:
Dear Sir: Pursuant to your commu
nication dated September .23, this Com
mission made the investigation of the
fuel shortage in' Eastern Oregon.
The Oregon Railroad . & Navigation
Company had their agents make a
canvass of the district as early as July.
There being In effect a rate of $7 per ton
on. .coal from the Missouri River to points
in Eastern Oregon, their reports . did . not
show a shortage and the officials be
lieved there was no shortage and, fSey
could supply all demands.
This Commission sent the enclosed
letter (regarding slabwood supply) to 66
mills throughout the Willamette Valley,
receiving replies from ten mills, only one
of which had wood to spare and his price
was 31.25 per" cord. The quantity being
so small this Commission did not feel
warranted In - asking the railroad com
panies to put ' In Joint rates.
Nearly -all .the mills that replied com
plained of not. getting cars to handle
Uielr local" orders for wood. They in
wred that the proposed raise in the
Wistern lumber rate; coupled with the
scarcity of cars for- Interstate shipments,
made their future: operations too uncer
tain for them to consider business such
as. this Commission suggested.

CROSBY IS HIGHLY RESPECTED
Accused Man Prominent in Business

Ttt'XDBE, Or.. Oct 26. (Special.) G. A.
Crawford, of this city, declares that a
recent published statement from Newberg
that R. C. Crosby was an object of sus
picion to his neighbors, does a gross Injustice-
to the accused, who Is yet to be'
jroven guilty of the charges against him.
"Mr. Oosby is the son of a wealthy
Massachusetts man, and it is not un
natural for him to have had liberal aid
from his father," says Mr. Crawford.
"Mr. Crosby has always in his long
residence here been highly respected. He
has done much for Newberg and com
munity In a business and social way. He
has patronized Newberg banks, taken lib
eral shares in her Industries, and recently
established a first-class milk route In the
town. At this time It seems Indeed a
great Injustice to the already sorrowing
family that such derogatory statements,
should be published."

America and settled in -Wisconsin, in which state she was married
to Samuel Brown. In 1869 Mr. and Mrs. Brown came to Oregon to
make their home, and In February of this year the husband died
followed by the wife eight months afterward.
Mrs. Brown was a woman of strong- convictions, true and strong in
the life of a pioneer. There are seven surviving children: Dr. S. A.
Dr. E. C, of Portland; William W., Paulina; Robert J. and George H.,
New Era; Mrs. Frank Winslow, Seattle, WasS., and Mrs. W. P. Beld

resident of Oregon for 61 years, died this
morning at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. E. J. Snelllng, in this city. She was
the mother of Judge George H. Burnett,
one of Oregon's best-known Jurists.
Mrs. Burnett was 90 years old, having
been born In Louisville. Ky., February
25, 1817. In childhood she moved with
her parents to Missouri, and was married
there November 10, 1831, " to George W.

Mr. and Mrs. Burnett crossed the plains

year there moved to Yamhill County, lo
cating near McMlnnville. Mr. Burnett

State Circuit Court for the Third Judicial
District; Mrs. Emily J. Snelllng, of Al

and the body will be buried at McMlnn
ville, where her husband rests.
Judge Burnett was to have opened the
October term of Department No. 1, State

Eugene.
RETURNS ONE INDICTMENT
Whitman County Grand Jury Then
Adjourns Until November 4.
COLFAX, Wash., Oct. 26. (Special.)
The Whitman County grand jury
handed Judge Chadwlck one true bill
tonight and then adjourned until No
vember 4. Rumor has it that Prosecut
ing Attorney Kipp has been held on
charges of graft. All but four of the
17 members of the grand jury are
farmers who have a large amount of
work to be done at home.
Two important cases before the
grand Jury, Involving Pullman City
and its alleged illegal voters, brought
most of Pullman's business men to
Colfax today. Among the witnesses
were Professors Thatcher and Fullmer,
of the Washington State College; At
torney G. S. Jamar, challenger for the
Law Enforcement League last election;
Undertaker J. W. Palmerton, acting
Deputy Sheriff, who has prevented
from arresting voters; J. W. Matthews,
ex-Prosecuting Attorney; E. B. Holt,
ex-City Marshal, and J E. Nessley,
newspaper correspondent.
The second Pullman case is before
Judge Chadwlck In the Superior Court.
The Law Enforcement League is at
tempting to prove that the registering
of city voters under the new ward or
dinance will cause an illegal election.

"ASTORIA. Or., Oct 26. (Special.) The
Clatsop County Board of Equalization,
which has been in session during the
present week, adjourned this evening as
not - a single protest against the valua
tions, as fixed on the roll, had been filed
with the Board. This Is an unusual con
dition and was probably occasioned by
the fact that, under the law now in force,
anyone making a protest must make affi
davit as to the facts alleged in the pro
test. Assessor Cornelius will begin work
at once on the roll for next year and he
expects to Increase the valuations to
about $12,000,000. or nearly double the

EIGHT WERE TAKEN:

A RECORD THAT CANNOT BE EQUALLED ANYWHERE COMING
WEEK SHOULD BE STILL GREATER
Several Additional Magnificent "De Luxe" Pianos at Less Than Wholesalo.
Three Specially Choice Pianola Pianos Baby Grands of Wonderful Beauty
Also to Go at Tremendous Price Reductions.
Of the eleven specially designed and
very costly, exhibition upright pianos
which were offered for sale last week
by Eilers Piano House at most unusual
reduction in price, only three Instru
ments remain on hand. A fourth was
added yesterday morning, coming from
our wholesale warehouse at Thirteenth
and Northrup streets.
This in Itself Is a sales record worthy
of special comment; no other city in
the United States can show this many
fancy Instruments sold by one house
In a week, let alone thirty-one other
choice new instruments of regular
stock, and a large numbee of used
pianos which were also sold by us to
discriminating- buyers during the past
It was expected that the character ot
these exhibition pianos and the ex
traordinary discounts would meet a
most generous response, but even we
did not expect nearly all of these In
struments to b taken the first week.
In order, therefore, to make a thor
oughly representative display tomor
row, we have added several instru
ments which, with the regular cata
logue styles, will surely Interest the
mot particular buyers. We are nam
ing the same discounts on these addi
tional five Instruments; the entire line,
at these prices, should find buyers at
once.
SUPERB H.tND-MADB MISSIOSf.
The fourth piano referred to above Is
a superb hand-made design modeled
after plans submitted by a prominent
Berkeley. California, architect. This
order was executed In duplicate, the
second model being sent here. You
should pay $6.50 for such a piano, yes.
$700 would not be an exorbitant fig
ure. If it Is taken first thinfr during
the coming week it can be had for al
most half-price.
Another superb piano is a simply
splendid Decker, the very largest or
chestral upright piano in an exquisite
mottled case. This will go at a reduc
tion In price of exactly 228.
Tho third Is a most magnificent
Chlckorlng. If ever an upright piano
was worth fully as much as a grand,
it certainly, is this particular instru
ment. $1000 would surely be a fair
price for it. If there is a well-to-do
home havlnp the where-with-all to own
the very choicest of American Piano
production, here is the opportunity in
this truly superb piano.
A magnificent Haddorff Piano, an
exact duplicate of the famous Instru
ment which was exhibited in the Illi
nois building- of the Lewis and Clark
exhibition, is here, also a glorious
style of the ever-popular Schumann in
massive fanciest figured genuine ma
hogany. PIANOLA PIANOS, TOO.
Two most elegant fancy art style
e-enuine Weber Metrostyle Pianola
Pianos, one a $1050 style, the other a
SlloO piano (the. former in the new
French or satin finish).
They were put Into a carload wlth--out
our buyer's orders. They are most
unusual instruments In point of finish,
also in case design: thus we decided
that we can more nimbly take care of
ther equivalent in cash or a custom
er's contract than to have these pianos
in fetock. hence the liberal reduction we
are naming.
Then- here's a splendid ebony case
Wheoloek Pianola Piano also to go at
a substantial reduction. There Is but
one other piano of this particular style
in the state, which was made specially
to order for one of Portland's leading;
homes. We wish, however, to confine
ourselves to. regular catalogue styles,
therefore the opportunity to buy the
piano under price.
A THU.Y B 4BV SHOW.
One of the big features of the enm
