LONG LIFE WELL LIVED
l'ot-mer Law Partner Tells Keasun
fop .ludis?es Withdrawal of Xame
When Nominated for Chief
Justice hv Grant.
Memorial exercises for the late
Judpre George IT. Williams were held
yesterday morninpr in the Mutnomah
County Circuit Court, all the Judges j
slttiny en banc.
Tn addition to adopting resolutions
fxtollltiK the late jurist, the meeting,
which waa attended by attorneys and
judges of court of all degress, lis
tened to several carefully prepared ad
dresses by leading members of the bar.
Addresses were made or papers were
prepared by the following: Frederick
V. Holman. Thomas A. MoBride, W. B.
Ollbrrt, Charles J. Sohnabel, Cyrus A.
TJolph, W. D. Fenton. John M. Gearin,
Walter P. 1a Roche, C. E. S. Wood and
Rbert G. Morrow.
A feature of the occasion was the
explanation iven " by C. K. S. Wood,
.ludgo Williams' former law partner,
of the manner in which Mr. Williams
had been induced to refuse to oontinue
in a campaign for the appointment of
Chief Justice of the United States Su
preme Court. President Grant had
named Mr. Williams for the position,
hut the United States Senate split in its
support of the nomination, and re- j
spondlng to the urgent request of his
wife, who felt sensitive concerning the
Issue, Judge Williams withdrew his
name before It was put to a final vote.
Mitchell's Inaction Blamed.
Mr. Wood said that Judge Kelly, who
was fit that time a Democratic Senator
from Oregon and could not, for poltical
reasons, support Judge Williams,
blamed the outcome upon ex-Senator
, Mitchell, who failed to ask, at the
proper time, for unanimous concurrence
in the nomination made by the Presi
dent. Hack of it all. however, Mr. Wood
explained, was the enmity of social
leaders in Washington toward Mrs.
' Williams, who had aroused their jeal
ousy. After the meeting yesterday, it wa
determined by the Multnomah Bar As
sociation to print in pamphlet form the
speeches delivered yesterday. Follow
ing are paragraphs taken from ad
dresses delivered yesterday:
Frederick V. Holman That Judge
Williams lived more than four-score
and seven years and preserved, in a
jrood measure, his bodily health and
his mental powers and vigor to the
last, was a souroe of great pleasure,
and satisfaction -to his friends and to
the public. It is not a matter of mo
ment so much that he lived so long as
that he lived so well. He lived into
what I call a beautiful old age.
Thomas A. McBrlde, justice of the
Oregon Supreme Court He was a pro
found judicial philosopher. He did not
. look upon the law as a mere maze of
judicial precedents or as a game to be
played according to fixed technical
1 ules, but as a means of attaining jus
tice; as the ultimate philosophy of
righteousness; as a means of protec
tion for the upright and of punish
ment for the vicious, or, as he some
what tersely expressed It In one Im
portant case. "Offenders cannot be al
lowed to take refuge from our liberal
lows In the cobwebs of an antiquated
practice.'
Undisturbed by Turmoil.
''harles .T. Sehnahel At all times he
was approachable by the humblest of
his fellow citizens and no matter what
the surroundings or disturbance of the
moment, his greetings were always of
the pleasantest and kindliest char
acter. C. A.' Iolph His opportunities were
large and he had the capacity to rise
to the full . level of ' great occasions.
He brought to the high positions he
was called to fill ability of a high or
der and an unfaltering integrity and
honesty of purpose.
John M. Gearin From the time he
came to Oregon his was a compelling
personality in the field of public and
personal endeavor, and all the splen
did development which lias come to
this far Western ?tate received its first
impetus in the years when his per
sonal and official efforts were the in
spiration of its activity.
Walter P. La Roche A Southerner
nd still a comparative stranger, I es
teem it a great privilege to join in this
beautiful custom of your bar and pay
. my weak tribute to the memory of
Judge Williams. . . . He loved his
country with a great love the vision
of nis intelligence took in not only the
North, but all of the states: for he be
lieved in the Republic, and was glad
that the i?oiith was a part of it.
William B. Gilbert, judge of the
United States Court He belonged to a
type of men that, with his death, has
illsappeared a type produced by in
fluences and environment that are of
the past.
W. D. Fenton spoke of the way in
which Judge Williams had triumphed
over his critics, and showed that this
victory was in itself the work of a
great man.
Judge Morrow from, the bench closed
. the meeting with remarks also com
plimentary to the departed jurist.
BOND . BILL TO BE RIDER
Senators Doubtful Wliicli AVay Will
Best Insure Success.
OREGOX1AN XEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, April 16. Senators who are work
ing to secure final passage of the $30,000,-
000 irrigation bill are doubtful whether
to attach their bill as a rider to the river
and harbor bill or to the sundry civil
bill.
The first-named bill, being heavilv load
ed Hy the Senate committee, seems to be
tn wme danger, but the sundry civil bill
must pass, and it is probable that the
tW.OOO.OOO bill will be attached to that
measure in the Senate, unless the House
in the. meantime reports and passes it.
Jt is understood that Chairman Payne
has promised to report the bill, but so
far he has taken no step in that direction.
mlnals on April 13, the closing-day of
the colonist rate period.
Advices from the East to the general
offices, of the O. R. & X. yesterday told
of nine special tourist cars added to
regular equipment Friday. Four of
these cars were added at Chicago, three
at Omaha, one at Kansas City and ne
at Denver. The nine sleepers will car
ry ab'out 350 persons, it is estimated,
but only a portion of the colonist con
tingent on a train travels by sleeper at
all. Hundreds come all the way
through in the chair cars, and then
there is the regular equipment of tour
ist cars to be considered also. Past
experience with this class of travel
causes the estimate to be placed at
1000 as tlie number of colonists that
left for the Xorthwest via the Harri
man roads Friday.
These homeseekers will scatter all
through Oregon, some stopping at
points on the main line in Eastern
Washington, some gofng into the in
terior, some leaving the train in the.
apple country at Mosler and Hood River
and some coming on to go down on
the Southern Pacific into the Willam-,
ette and Rogue River valleys.
At none of the other railroad offices
in Portland were reports received that
would enable an estimate to be made
as to the travel on the Northern lines,
hut it is believed that quite as many
are en route to the West "over both
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern as left the East Friday on the Har
riman lines.

"WHITE LIST" IS PLANNED
Consumers' Liengue Will Name Sliops
Meeting Its Requirements.
The Consumers' League is making
every effort to establish a "white list" of
Portland shops comirg up to certain
high standards in regard to the working
conditions of their women employes. At
the regular monthly meeting of the
league executive committee held Friday,
a special committee was appointed to
visit employers about to establish new
Industries or to erect new buildings, for
the purpose of urging good hygienic con
ditions where women are to be employed.
This committee will alt-o visit all the
Portland sliops now carrying garments
bearing the Consumers League label and
will make up a corrected list of these
sliops and thoir lines of labeled goods.
The publicity committee reported that
arrangements had been made for a num
ber of addresses, concerning the work of
the league, before other organizations.

gress of Mothers, by Rev. J. D. Corby,
who is chairman of the early-closing
committee.

Left off tiie itinerary arranged for
the Northwest tour of delegates to the
National convention of hotel men, by
the publishers of the Hotel World, the
official organ of the National associa

special train,' carrying 57 delegates and
their families, will spend one day in
this city.
The hotel men will arrive in Portland
from Los Angeles at 7 o'clock next
Saturday- morning, and-during the 24
hours- of their visit will have, no op
portunity to utilize their palatial
string of Pullmans. Portland landlords
are preparing to entertain their com
rades throughout the day.
M. C. IMckinson. president of the
Portland Hotel Men's Association, yes
terday appointed a committee on ar
rangements, consisting of H. C. Bowers,
of the Portland; Phil Metschan, Jr., of
the Imperial, and Theodore Kruse, of
the Belvedere. At a meeting of the
committee immediately following it was
decided' to meet the special train, in ' a--body.
- Automobiles will be ready to
carry . the party to the various hotels
for breakfast. .
At 10' o'clock all the visitors will as
semble at the Hotel Portland and will
board autos for a trip over the coun

ever spread in the -city at" 7:30 P. M:
Tills will be at the Portland Hotel, but
chefs -of other hotels will take part in
its preparation, and the expense will
be shared by all.
"This association represents some
thing in the large cities of the-United
States and Canada." said Mr. Uickin
son last night. "The men who will be
here are the leaders among the hotel
men of en-ery city, and we propose to
show them that Portland is not only
the busiest tom on this AVestern Coast,
but that her hospitality is equal to any
thing they have ever experienced. ;
"Someone arranged the route for;
these delegates to travel and had ' it
printed in red on the front cover of
their magazine. Portland was not to.
be found. When we learned of that,
we got busy andi have determined to
give them something to remember. We
are also going to make it warm for
whoever attempted to slight this city
in the arrangements."
The hotel men's train will leave here
for Puget Sound on Sunday morning.
