crowds which lined the streets several

Red fire, roinan candles, transparent
banners, tooting horns and shouting;
marchers served to stir tip more feeling
than has been manifested In Pendletou

all along the line, however, could be
heard shouts for Bryan. It is estimated

Kl'ttENK. Or., Oct. 31. (Special.)
The Republican National campaign In
Iane County was brought -to a close
here tonight by the address of Wallace
McCamant. of Portland, who spoke to
a crowded house at the County Court
house. Mr. McCamant was Intro
duced by Helmus Thompson, president
of the Lincoln Republican Club, and
the speaker was well received from the
opening to the close of his address. The
audience this evening contained more
women than have attended any polit
ical meeting of the campaign. The
speaker reviewed carefully the records
of the two great political candidates
and the platforms which they have sub
mitted to the people of the United
State. The strong point of the dis
cussion was the great accomplishments
of the Republican party during- the
past few years and the reasons why
this success would be added to in the
event of the. election of Taft and Sher
man. The interest in the campaign
here on the part of the Republicans has
greatly increased since speakers were
sent into the field, and party leaders
declare that the Republican majority
In Lane will be considerably over what
was recently estimated, some claiming
that the ticket will have over a thou
sand majority here. All. Republican
speakers who have come here have
been greeted with full houses.
TAFT MAKES HOT FINISH
(Continued from First Page
on his special train for Buffalo, where
lie will spend Sunday with Mrs. Taft.
."Mr. Bryan has always won in Au
gust and September." said Mr. Taft In
one of hia speeches today. "This grows
out of the character of the policies he
advocates.; They are always plausible,
they are always useful for the first two
months, on the stump, and then the
jiower of logical analysis that the
American voters bring to- bear in the
long educational campaign that pre
cedes a. Presidential election, scatters
his policies to the wind, as they ought
to be scattered. It does not happen by
accident.' It happens because of the
character of the man and the character
of the platform and principles advo
cated by the Democratic party.
Only Motive Is Curiosity.
'I cannot. conceive how wage-earners or
business men that understand the dif
ference between the two parties 'as V the
tariff can vote for Mr. Bryan .undeh the
circumstances. ' Of ' course, they
vote for him on the theory that he could
not Vlo any harm, that he would have a
BVpubHran Senate and so he could not do
anything, and we would satisfy our cur
loity In knowing what he would do when
he f Into the White House, toward
which he has been struggling so many
years'.
"But It ts not mlse to make the error
of supposing that the President of the
I'nited States has not an enormous In
fluenie in respect to the business inter
ests of the country, even without regard
to hts power over legislation and over
the Congress.

WAVKRLT. X. T.. Oct. 31. I want to
pay tfn-Jmnny. to the gratitude that
every Republican In the country owes
to the Aepubitcans of Pennsylvania.
because they ko ahead voting the Re
publican ticket without any hope of
reward except that kind of reward
that comes from virtuous practices
only." said Mr. Taft. "The country in
New York is Just about as Republican
as Pennsylvania Is. only when you get
down Into New York City the leaven of
unrighteousness is introduced in . the
shape of Democracy.
"My friends, we are going on. I am
sincerely hopeful, to a return of the
prosperity with which we were blessed
for ten years. All we need to do Is to
clinch the progress we have made by
a Republican victory In November. We
would not be so If we were to put Mr.
Hvyan into power. Mr. Bryan is a
great orator, a leader of men. He Is
a man of poor judgment, however, and
you cannot afford to put him in the
White House."

JUDGE SPKNDS BUSY BAY
Delivers Six Addresses and Shakes
' Many Hands.
ELMIRA. N. Y., Oct. 31. William H.
Taft arrived here early today and deliv
ered a brief address on his closing; tour
of the state. Six other speeches were
on his schedule for today. After a dem
onstration at Rochester tonight, Mr. Taft
will proceed to Buffalo, where he will be
joined on Sunday by Mrs. Taft. She will
accompany him to Youngstown and Cin
cinnati, where he closes his campaign.
Despite the early hour of Mr. Taft's
arrival here, he spoke to a large crowd,
and was enthusiastically received. A
passageway was made from the Taft car
to the platform along the railway sta
tion, but the police had a hard time
keeping the crowd back, and It took five
minutes for Mr. Taft to reach the plat
form, which was only 60 feet from the
car. because of handshaking he was com
pelled to do on the w-ny. .He was intro
duced by Representative J. Sloat Fassett.
After discussing the panic of last fall,
Mr. Taft concluded:
"The men who control capital In Eu

SENDS MESSAGE TO HIS HOME
Taft Expresses Confidence and Asks
Bis Cincinnati Vote.
CINCINNATI. Oct. 31. That the thoughts
of W. H. 1'aft, practically on the eve of
election, turned toward Cincinnati, his
home, Is shown in the following message
sent from Elmira. N. Y.. to his friends
here through the Times-Star:
"The Issues of the campaign are now
understood by the American, people and
the lines are drawn. I have no fear,-no
doubt, as to the outcome. I believe vic
tory to be assured. I ,hope that supporters
of Republican doctrines and policies will
get Out a full and early vote, and that my
Cincinnati friends and neighbors, whose
encouragement has been a source of pride
and inspiration, will personally contribute
toward that end."
Officeholders Get Busy.
PARKERSBURG. XV. Va., Oct. 31.
George I. Neal. vice-chairman of the
Iemocratic State Committee and active
head of the Democratic campaign In this
etate, sent a telegram today to President
Roosevelt complaining of the activity of
certain officeholders In the campaign.
The telegram follows:
"The Federal otf iceholders In this state
are making your position of not permit
ting pernicious political activity by Fed
eral officers the laughing stock of the
state. I especially refer to Frank H.
Tyree. Marshal for the Southern Dis
trict; Charles D. Elliott. Marshal for the
Northern District, and George M. Bow
ers. Fish Commissioner. Their pernicious
political activity in this campaign la of
common notoriety. We are ready with
positive proof, at any time, of their
guilt-"
Pollinan Leads in Baker Fight.
BAKER CITY, Or.. Oct. 31. One of
the hottest city campaigns that has
been experienced here for years Is
being waged over the election to be
held Monday, at which time a Mayor,
four Councilmen and a police judge
will be elected. William Pollman.
Citizens' candidate, seems to have the
best of his opponent, F. M. Saxton.
at the present trme and bets are freely
offered with odds 2 to 1 on Pollman. I
now Eugene does not wait to see how
tilings are going to "turn up," instead she
"turns up something."
This fund is contributed to by between
400 and 5t)0 citizens of Eugene who have
the definite conviction that this is the
best city of Its size to be -found any
where, and If they can find any way to
make it better they are going to do so.
The contributors belong to all classes,
the business men. bankers,. professional
men, university professors, ministers, con
tractors and day laborers giving in the
same Fplrit the amounts they felt that
they should give to build up this city of
homes and . country, .of opportunities.
f 15,000 Easier Than $10,000.
The Jlo.OrtO promotion fund, was more
easily raised than the 110.000 fund of
last year. There is a reason for this.
The people have seen tangible proof of
the value of promotion work, systema
tically conducted, and again, the citizens
of Eugene are pulling together for what
they .believe to be the best city in the
best county In the best state of the
Union. The hundreds of people who have
come here within the past year or Two
to make this their home, feel the same
way about it, and Eugene Is bidding for
the best immigration from other sec
tions. " She will not strive for numbers,
but she will during the coming year try
to get for Lane County her share of the
most desirable people who come to the
Pacific slope.
The fund represents a contribution of
about J1.50 per capita for every man,
woman and child In ?ugene. It rep
resents a contribution of $15 for every
voter who has his permanent home here.
And as compared with what other cities
have done and ra doing this is prob
ably the biggest promotion fund, per
capita, ever raised by any city In the
United States for such a purpose. The
estimate Is based upon a population of
10,000 people, which Eugene doubtless has
at this time. If she has 10,000 people now,
the population has Increased about 30
per cent during "the past two years. If
the population is less the amount raised
per capita is so much greater.
Cash Already In Sight.
Of this fund of J15.000 over J13.700 had
been signed up yesterday at noon when
the committee of business men met at
luncheon to report progress and the other
$1,100 Is ready as soon as the papers can
be circulated. A number of subscribers
are out of the city, and there can be no
doubt that the full amount will more than
be secured within the next few days.
The money will be used in general ad
vertising and promotion work and civic
improvements, for the city and county.
BOYS TERRORIZE ASTORIA
Three Lads Confess to Thefts and
Implicate Many Others.
ASTORIA. Or.. Oct: SI. (Special.) A
gang of upper town boys, ranging from
ft to 12 years old. have been terrorizing
that portion of the city for some time.
While they have been committing petty
thefts' and doing ' small damage, the
police have found it difficult to apprehend
them.
On last Tuesday night a scow was
broken into during the" absence' of the
owner and a $10 gold pece stolen. Sus
picion turned on John Avila. John Flink
and Tony Stanovlch, the first being 9,
the second 31 and the third 12 years old.
They were placed under arrest and after
being locked up In the City Jail acknowl
edged their guilt, told how the scow was
broken Into and how the money was
divided among them.
After they started to talk they told of
other boys engaged In the same business
and gave a list of those who carried re
volvers at all times.
PREDICTS CLEAN SWEEP
Bingham Says . Republicans Will
Elect Entire Tlcket'ln Clark.
VANCOUVER, Wash., Oct. 31. (Spe
cial.) A. J. Biftham. chairman of the Re
publican County Central Committee, sums
up the political situation In Clark County
as follows:
The total vote In the county will be
about 3000 and Taft's majority will be
more than 1200, possibly 1500. J,avlng out
of the question those few Republican can
didates who have no- opposition, the
balance of the Republican county ticket
will be elected by majorities ranging from
1000 up, with the exception of two candi
dates. In the case of these two there will
be some scratching. Cosgrove, for Gov
ernor, will run parallel with the head' of
the ticket.
"The Republican organization in the
county is in-excellent condition and each
of the 27 precinct men have done effective
work. We have held meetings this week
at practically every schoolhouse and hall
in the county. These meetings have been
well attended and much has been accom
plished by them for Republicanism.
"We will wind up the campaign with a
rousing meeting Monday - evening, at
Hockinson, the speakers to Te James P.
Stopleton, W. W. Sparks, E. M. Rands
and P.. J. Kirwin."
GIVES TAFT SAFE LEAD
(Continued From First Poit )
whether the peculiar announcement by
John D. Rockefeller, that he would sup
port Taft can be turned by the Demo
crats Into an argument which ma'y swing
some close states back to Bryan. The
Democratic campaigners are making use
of the incident with all the avidity with
which a last card is seized upon in the
closing hours of the campaign.
So far as the New York Governorship
Is concerned figures and comment printed
elsewhere In the forecast show that Mr.
Hughes has a small lead; that the tide
seems to continue to run in his favor, but
that the contest Is so close that at the
last moment something . might develop
which wo-Jld change the conditions.
There appears to be some element of
doubt in Ohio. but the latest testa
ments from that state say that It will
give Mr. Taft a plurality of more than
30.000. while Harris, Republican, will
probably be elected Governor. The
Republican managers have been in a
desperate frame of mind over Mr.
Taft's home state, because of the pe
culiar conditions existing there and be
cause the expected large drop In the
plurality from 255,000 for Mr. Roosevelt
In 1904 allowed no reliable basts for
calculation.
Illinois and Michigan Safe.
Michigan will go for Taft. but the
state fight Is very close. What is re
garded bb'il . conservative estimate
places the plurality of Governor War
ner at 20.000. Some congressional
losses In Michigan probably will be
sustained by the Republicans.
The Republicans seem to be winning
everything in Illinois. Taft's plurality in
this state Is likely to be enormous. Mr.
Chafln, the Prohibition candidate for
President, who is very unfriendly to Mr.
Taft. says the Republican National ticket
will have at least 100,000 excess votes.
There has been a ripping fight over the
Governorship, but apparently Governor
Deneen, Republican, is to win over Adlal
K. Stevenson, Democrat, by approximate
ly 100.000. The Republican state commit
tee claims Deneen's election by 180,000
plurality, while the Democratic state com
mittee asserts that Stevenson will win
by 30,000.
The contest in Nebraska has been car
ried on with desperate energy, but the
state seems to be Isolated, a sort of Dem
ocratic island surrounded by. a Republican
sea." It will probably go for Bryan by
from 8000 to 10.000 plurality. Yet Iowa, on
the east, Kansas and Colorado, on the
south, Wyoming, on the west, and South
Dakota, on the north, will all be for Taft.
' May Divert Radicals. .
It has taken political observers some
time to get theiir bearings in 'Colorado,
but It Is now said that the state will go
for Taft by 10.000. The state ticket iB'in
douht, as is the Legislature, .which will
elect a successor to Senator Henry "M.
Teller. Whether the statement of John
D. Rockefeller that he would vote for
Taft will drive any of the labor and rad
ical vote thus secured back, to Bryan re
mains to be seen.
New Hampshire Fights State Issues.
CONCORD, N. H.. Oct. 31. The cam
paign in New Hampshire is closing
with all parties active and the man
agers declare one of the heaviest
votes In New Hampshire's history will
be cast Tuesday. Interest centers
mainly in the long agitated state Issue
of alleged corporation influence in the
Legislature. The Democrats profess
to expect the election of a Democratic
Governor.
South Dakota for Taft.
SIOUX FALLS. S. D.. Oct. 31. Repub
licans tonight assert with much confi
dence that they will carry the state for
Taft and elect every man on the Repub
lican state ticket. The Democrats say
thej' are certain to elect their nominee

LET IX FACE; MAY DIE.
William Reno, Under Arrest at Che
halis, Declares Wounded Man
.Pulled Trigger In Scuffle.
CHEHALIS. Wash., Oct 31 (Spe
cial.) Last night William Reno shot
James Goodell In the face, near the
nose, the bullet lodging In Goodell's
brain. The shooting occurred while
the men were driving to Ethel, where
they had been working at Keller's saw
mill. Reno, Goodell, Jesse Moore and
Bob Waunch were In the : rig. .
The men had been working, at the
mill and were paid off yesterday. They
came to Chfchalls and Reno and Good
ell filled up on liquor. As they were
driving along the public road a short
distance beyojid Forest, about 10 miles
southeast of town, Goodell is alleged
to have pulled a pistol from his pocket
and remarked that anyone who at
tempted to touch him would be shot.
Afterward, according to Moore, Good
ell pointed the gun backward and
fired two shots, whereat Reno, who.
was in the back of the rig with
Waunch, Jumped up. grappled the gun
from Goodell and fired It.
An examination showed that Good
ell was shot. The rig was driven back
to Forest and later Goodell was
brought Into town and Dr. Daw and
Deputy Sheriff King summoned.
Reno went to the home of I W.
Kayldr, beyond Forest, and gave him
self up. He was hrought in this morn-,
ing. His story Is that he and Waunch
were drinking in the back of the rig.
That he and Goodell had had trouble a
short time ago, and that for a week
they had not spoken. Goodell suddenly
began shooting and making threats to
the effect that he would kill" Reno.
Reno grappled Goodell's gun, and dur
ing the scuffle, Reno says, it was
pulled off by Goodell's own finger. The
two men are about 30 years old. They
were hired at a camp near town here
about three weeks ago. Goodell is at
the St. Helens Hospital In Chehalls.
