TOTS SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND. NOVEMBER 1, 1908.
CONGESTION MAY
SHUT OUT VOTES
Unless Employers Grant Half
Holiday, Hundreds Will Be .
Kept From Voting.
PRECINCT LIMIT IS 300
Many Districts Have More Than
Double Legal Number of Voters
Registered. However Tolls
May Keep Open Very Late.
Hundreds of registered voters In Mult
nomah County will be kept from voting
In the Presidential election Tuesday un
less business houses, factories, mills and
other places where men are hired declare
a half-holiday for their voting employes
on election day.
That this unusual condition exists was
discovered yesterday by County Clerk
Fields when the total number of voters in
each precinct waa gone over with a view
to estimating the time that would be re
quired by election clerks to receive the
ballots. It was found that in many of
the larger districts the voters could not
possibly be handled unless they began ap
pearing at the polls early In the day. As
the heaviest voting hour for worktngmen
Is between the hours of t and 7 P. M.. It
was estimated that the rush could not
possibly he met. This applies particularly
to outlying districts on the East Side.
Lawful Limit Exceeded.
While the law. as It now stands, pro
vides that voting precincts must be di
vided so that there will be not to exceed
300 voters in each one. it Is found that in
several precincts the total number of vot
ers approaches the point. This has
been caused by the rapid growth of the
districts affected.
The present segregation was mart Octo
ber 7. 1807. Tlie basis taken was the vote
of IJos. But the registration for the Presi
dential election has Increased until no
less than a dozen precincts have entirely
outgrown their legal proportions.
The greatest Increases are noted in
Fellwood. Northeast Portland. St. John,
"Woodstock. Anabel. South Mount Tabor
and Arleta. Precinct . In South
Jiount Tabor, has 73 registered voters,
whereas it should have but 30. Most
of these men are employes, and the
congestion that will be sure to follow
here in case these men are not given
a hslf-hollday is apparent. Precinct 84.
in 'Northeast Portland, has a registered
total of 67S votes, and a large percent
age of these men also sre workmen, so
that a similar congestion Is bound to
occur here. .....
Where Congestion Occurs.
In Pellwood. Precinct 42 has 531 reg
istered voters and Precinct 43 has 338.
Precincts 80 to S. Northeast Portland,
have a total of 4422 voters, whereas
the legal allowance Is 3000. In St. John,
Precinct 0 htss 548 voters and Pre
cinct 1 410 voters. Precinct 94. Wood
stock, has Stl; Precinct 95. Anabel, 4.18;
Precinct . South Mount Tabor. 73;
Precinct 7. Arleta. 500.
In delivering a ballot to the -voter,
the election clerk must write out the
name and address, tear the stub off the
Fallot and hand It to the voter, this
after the voter's right to vote has been
duly verified. The ballot must then be
made out. tendered, accepted and placed
In the ballot-box. Mr. Fields finds that
It would take the force at any polling
place all day. working steadily, to
handle 675 voters. And that number is
shown in Precinct 84. where the greater
number of voteis will congest between
the hours of 5 and 7 P. M.. unless the
afternoon is given them by their em
ployers. Polls May Keep Open Till Late.
"Never before have so many voters
appeared in precincts." said Mr. Fields
yesterday, in discussing the situation.
"Everyone, seems to want to vote for
President, and I believe it would be
grossly wrong to keep them from It."
One solution offered Is that the polls
be kept open until all voters have had
.a chance to vote, provided they are In
line when the hour arrives for closing
the polls. Mr. Fields says this means
will be resorted to If necessary. "But
it has one drawback." he said. "Men
will not stand In line until late at
night for the privilege of voting. Many
of them are tired out after a hard day's
work. They will wait an hour or so,
perhaps, but no longer. To accommo
date a long line of voters after 7
o'clock might continue the hours until
near midnight."
Should Be Counted at Midnight.
If the polls close Tuesdsy at 7 P. M.
as it is planned they shall do. except
In the case of emergency In the larger
precincts, the votes should all be count
ed before midnight, according to a test
made in ballot-counting yesterday af
ternoon by Mr. Fields. County Auditor
Brsndes and reputy County Clerk
Schneider. Two hundred and seventeen
ballots were taken from a straw con
test which Charles Nebergall. the blind
cigar dealer at the Courthouse, has
been conducting for several days past.
It took just 40 minutes to take the
eathe and count the votes, and 20 min
utes more to sign the tally-sheets and
place them in envelopes. Only average
speed was used, and from the progress
msde It is estimated that the returns
in even the largest precincts should be
ready by midnight.
Taft had a good majority in this
count. Of the 217 ballots cast, he got
117. Bryan got 70. Chafln 8. Debs 7.
Hlsgen 2- All the rest were either
blank or defective.
TRUST IN FEAR OF BRYAN
Candidate Tells Hooslers Why Cor
porations Fight Him.
WINCHESTER, lnd.. Oct. 31. After Is
suing a formal appeal to the people of the
United fttates for support of the Demo
cratic National ticket. W. J. Bryan, at
this place today, renewed his attacks on
John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie
because of the strictures upon him in con
nection with their announcement that
they favored the election of Mr. Taft.
To a great crowd assembled in Franklin
street. Democracy's leader, in discussing
the trusts, said:
"Every trust magnate Is supporting
Taft. the Republican candidate, and yes
terday morning Mr. Rockefeller came out
and asked for his election. Why does
Rockefeller stand for Taft? Because Taft
stands for Rockefeller. Why does Car
negie stand for Taft? Because Taft standi
for Carnegis. Why does the Biscuit Com
pany stand for Taft? Because he stands
for their trust. Why does the tobacco
company atand for him ? Because he
stands for thera.
"These trusts are right in supporting
him. They would not be grateful If they
did not. They would not have much sense
If they did not. for they know that If I
am elected, the spike will be put on the
big criminals as well as the little ones
and therefore they are for him. I am
glad to have the trust magnates against
me. but I could have had them on my
aide had I been willing to sell the Amer
ican people to the trust magnates. I have
them against me because I prefer to fight
for things that the people need and I am
fighting for them not merely because
think a trust hurts this generation, but I
have children and I have grandchildren,
and I would be ashamed to look them In
the face if I waa willing to barter away the
liberties of the people and sell this Nation
into industrial bondage to a few great
trust magnates. And that is what la be
Ing done In thie country today. There
might have been, some excuse in yesrs
past for a man to vote the Republican
ticket because he did not know what was
going on. The Republican leaders' have
been working both sides of the road. They
have been working reform out "here with
promises, but they have been caught with
the goods on this year, and any man who
votes the Republican ticket now, votes it
knowing that the party has betrayed the
masses and will do It again If It Is in
trusted with power."
FINAL GUN OF (KN
LOWELL SPEAKS AT SPIRITED
RALLY FOR TAFT.
Pendleton Lawyer Advises Against
Turning White House Into an
Experiment Station.
The local Republican campaign was con
eluded last night at a large and enthu
siastic rally In Selling-Hlrscb Hall, when
Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendleton, deliv
ered an eloquent address in behalf of Mr.
Taft's candidacy. J. D. Lee. candidate
for Presidential elector, also delivered a
short address. Judge I R. Webster, who
was scheduled to speak at last night's
meeting, was unable to be present. Pre
ceding the speakers sn orchestra rendered
a number of patriotic selections. D. O.
Carl's tenor solo. "My Own United
S:ates." earned the appreciation of the
audience.
Judge Lowell began his remarks with a
review of Mr. Bryan s career as a party
leader and an analysis of the various
measures which have been advocated by
him. The sneaker characterized the
Democratic candidate as the apostle of
economic dreams and the advance agent
of political delirium tremens, and asked
his hearers if the Nation could afford to
transform the White House into a poli
tical experiment station. His action as
a Congressman was referred to in an
vocacv of free tra.de. In connection with
this the unfortunate period of 1833 was
reviewed as the logical result of measures
advocated by Mr. Bryan previously.
The various measures formerly advo
cated by Mr. Bryan, free silver, antt-lm
periallsm. Federal ownership of railroads.
were referred to as evidences or nis un
settled Judgment regarding great econo
mic ouest ons. In speaking or tne guaran
tv of bank deposits. Judge Lowell said
it was a measure that had been tried
but twice in all history, and that no man
was wise enough or far-seeing enough to
decide whether or not in the experiment
It will be found right or wrong, but he
believed it was time enough for the great
republic to adopt It after older states than
Oklahoma have tried It.
"In years gone by." said Judge
Lowell. "I have been impressed with
the eloquence and the sincerity of Mr.
Bryan. He has called himself the rep
resentative of the common people ana
has denounced the iniquity of the boss
and political trickster, men like Mur
ohv. of Tammany Hall. 1 could not but
admire the man who said I would
rather nevr be President than to
gain the office through the aid of a
man like Roger Sullivan, of Illinois."
But the Bryan of 1908 is not the Bryan
of 1896 and 1900. With the coming
years and increasing wealth has come
about a change of heart. He has made
peace with every man of whatever sort
that he formerly scornfully opposed,
dining with the very men against
whom he hurled the shafts of ridicule.
In that company were Wall atreet
financiers. August Belmont and his
kind. Behind all this is the Standard
Oil Company.
"Against the candidacy or Mr. Bryan
I would urge that of Mr. Taft, who for
27 years has served the American peo
ple, one of the greatest administrators
of the age. Does he stand upon any
theories? No. His whole lite renecis
the Judgment and intelligence of every
thinking man 1n the Republic. He has
served with distinction in every sta
tion he has been placed. He looms
large in the annals of Ohio and this
great Nr.tion in its mission to civilization.
"As a Judge he had few equals, as the
Governor -General of the Philippines
his administration, his work showed
the highest elements of statesmanship.
As Secretary of War, his powers aa an
organizer have again been abundantly
proved.
"Judge Taft Is In a position now. lr
elected next Tuesday, to take the Presi
dent's office on March 4 next better
eouiDoed to exercise Its functions than
any man in our history. A few Presi
dents have achieved greatness through
experience. Mr. Taft understands bet
ter than any other man, perhaps, the
problems of the Nation. He Is known
personally to the statesmen of Japan
and China, with whom we have many
delicate questions of diplomacy to con
sider. He knows the men who occupy
the cabinet chambers of Europe. Next
to Washington and Lincoln, he will
loom in the history of our republic."
M
A Poor Relation," at
the Heillg
BY JOHN J. HARRISON.
THEATER-GOERS of a few years
ago will recall a pathetic character
Sol Smith Russell made of the "Poor
Relation," and how the comedy element
caused a smile through the tears.
Russell. Raymond and the master.
Mansfleld. possessed the unusual talent
to bring out comedy "spots" in pathetic
plays that mediocre actors run near the
danger mark in an endeavor to follow;
for nine times out of ten the whole per
formance Is made absurd, either
through lame Imitation by the star
aspirant or unintelligent support.
Sol Smith Russell imitated nobody;
he was a creator. He never gave him
self prominence by poor support, and
the result was In the case of "A Poo
Relation.' he maintained his standing
z a superior comedian.
The play la one of the things on the
stage that to do tt Justice requires not
only peculiar talent in every member
of the company, including, of course,
the leading part, but there must be
careful and painstaking preparation in
order to make it go.
Salem papers say that at the opening
of the theatrical season in that city Asa
Lee Wlllard and his company gave a
creditable presentation of "A Poor Re
lation." They opened a two nights" en
gagement at the Heillg last night.

members of the committees In charge
of each district. At every street cor
ner, at the entrance of every building
and store waa stationed a detachment
of crusaders, and if there is a man in
Poitland who ran the gauntlet without
giving a dime he must have been deaf,
dumb, blind or broke.
Few Resist Appeals.
Business houses, stores, shops, of
fices, restaurants swid residences were
invaded, and "Buy a tag?" was urged
so sweetly and so persistently that the
National debt could surely be wiped out
with a similar National crusade. Ma
ture matrona and pretty girls stood on
the streets, approached strangers, held
up friends and sold tags. From early
morning until a late hour last night
they continued the harvest of dimes.
During the afternoon two little
daughters of W. B. Steele, a contractor,
volunteered their services. In two
hours they gathered the sum of $13.90
and proudly took the proceeds to head
quarters. At Union Station Policeman
R. W. Barter escorted the campaigners
through the offices and nearby busi
ness houses and a big sum was raised.
A youngster from Brooklyn went to
headquarters and volunteered his serv
ices, so great was his enthusiasm in the
campaign.
"Funny Man" Gives Lemon.
Innumerable Incidents of Interest are
related by various members of the cru
sading campaign. At First and Wash
ington streeta a man gave a lemon to
the wqman who asked him to buy a
tag, and he thought It was very funny.
At Third and Yamhill a man who de
clared himself a Socialist said the
scheme was a graft, and refused at first
to contribute. But when the four
women at the corner had finished ex
plaining he handed them a quarter.
At headquarters many came In per
son to contribute, and business houses
called by telephone to request that
some one be sent to their places. Chief
Grltzmacher detailed a special officer
to remain on duty there during the day
and evening and the officer accom
panied the cash to the bank whenever
a deposit was sent. Automobiles were
provided for the convenience of the va
rious committees by Mrs. Adolphe
Wolfe. Mrs. D. C. Burns. Mrs. H. W.
Corbett, the Oregon Hotel and H. M.
Covey.
Sixth-and-Alder Brigade.
At Sixth and Alder streets were sta
tioned Mrs. S. B. Vincent. Mrs. I. N.
Lipman, Miss Helen Rosenfeld and Miss
Evelyn Rigler. They encountered many
Interesting experiences, as did all the
other crusaders.
"A little newsboy came to me," said
one of the Sixth and Alder taggers,
and holding 10 cents in his grimy hand
said, 'I'll buy a ticket. Can I get a
baby for this ticket at the Baby Home?
"A pretty young assistant asked a
burly chap to buy a tag. and aa he paid
his 10 cents, said. 'Youse society girls
wouldn't notice a feller like me any
other day." and. alas, I am afraid there
as much truth in his philosophy. A
quiet young man, when I asked him to
buy, said, 'I have one, but I hide It, see,
here it is. I hide it because no girls
ever look at me and so when a pretty
girl asked me to buy. you bet I did.
But when I bought they quit looking.
and I hid the tag. Now, they all run
after me."
"I approached a dignified gentleman.

age, who was with his beautiful wife,
some years his Junior.
"Tea. he said, when I asked him to
buy; "tell me, are there any babies about
S years old out at the Home old
enough to go to other institutions?" I
told him how a childless couple had
adopted a boy 2 years old. He turned
to his wife and said. That is what we
want to do; we want to go to the Home

HOOD RIVER'S NEW REVIVAL
ORGANIZE UNIVERSITY CLUB
WITH 88 MEMBERS.
Fourth City in Pacific Northwest to
Boast of Organization of Col-
lege Men.
HOOD RTVER, Or.. Oct. 81. (Spe
cial.) Hood River is the fourth city in
the Pacific Northwest to organize a
University Club. At the first annual
banquet on October 17. the charter
membership roll was closed with a
total of 88 signatures. Seated at the
banquet were 72 of the 88 members.
Hood River, with a population "of
3000 people, believes it has established
a unique record in the organization of
such a club. All the larger universi
ties In the United States, with one or
two exceptions are represented in the
membership roll.
Requirements for membership In
the Hood River University Club are
the same as demanded by the Univer
sity Club of Portland. The four cities
In the Pacific Northwest which sup
port university clubs are Portland,
Seattle. Spokane and Tacoma.
E. H. Shepard, editor of Better
Fruit, and a successful apple and berry
grower here, was the first to start the
movement for organization of the Uni
versity, and the success he met with,
was a surprise to himself and friends.
Mr. Shepard was assisted in tne organ
ization work by J. E. Hall. The club
has already arranged for quarters In
one of the several brick structures
now being erected in this city. Many
of the members of the club are young
college men from the East who are
owners of apple orchards in Hood
River Valley.

River University Club and the univer
sities and colleges tlfey represent are:

PRICES LIKE OIL TRUST
Fluctuated Up and Down to Suit
Parisian Youngster's Fancy. j
PARIS, OcL 31. (Special.) All visi
tors to Paris know the little Savoyard
boys who prowl about the boulevards
and the terraces of the Montmartre
cafes at night selling their statuettes.
They are sharp little lads, anil known
to be quite unscrupulous In the prices
they ask for their wares. The other
evening one of them offered a plaster
statuette for SI. The customer sug
gested 5 cents. "Give me 10 cents for
it and it's yours," said the boy. "I'll
give you S cents," said the customer.
"No. 10 cents," said the lad again. But
at that moment the statuette fell out of
the purchaser's hands and smashed it
self to pieces. "Well, now I suppose I
must pay you," and the man put 10
cents down. "Ah, no." the boy said. 20
cents is my price." "But a minute ago
you said you would take 10 cents for
it." "I know I did." said the Savoyard,
"but a minute ago you might have re
fused to buy, and now that you have
broken it you've got to pay for It." He
got the 20 cents.
