entering Into personalities for the flrat

statements and ll'n ed his accuser,
wlnnln- a demonstration of enthusias
tic appreciation from the audience. The
tilt between the two candidates oc
curred at a meetlns; of the Alberta
J'ropertr Owners' Association, at which
all candidates had been Invited to be
present and to deliver speeches. Mr.
ITvans did not reach the hall until after
the programme was nearlng Its close.
Councilman Joy named no name In
Ms first sier-h and made hla first ac
cusations by Innuendo.
"I am not running on the support of

said. 'I am not rich enough to pur
chase such support. The press of Port

Kvaaa Challenge Aaaertloa.
After continuing In this vein for
few minutes, and declaring himself the
only candidate with an unsmlrohed rec
ord ba:K of him, Mr. Joy sat down and
the chairman of the meeting, John Aim-
uul.t. called upon Mr. Evans.
"Now Is a good time," aald Mr. Evans,
rising, "for me to take a fall out of
some of the liars here. When a man
by Innuendo tries to cast upon me U
accusation of having bought off a
opponent In the race. It la time for me
to take a fall out of him. and I pro
posed to do this with the last speaker.
This Is the first time In the campaign
I have made a direct answer to the ac
cusatlons that I had been told were
being made against me, but now, when
I have my accuser face to fare. It is
time for me to throw his words back
it him. The Innundos that have Just
tt-en cast upon me are made by a wil
ful and malicious liar.
"If he has evidence that I have used
Improper Influence to cause an oppon
ent to withdraw. It Is his place to take
that evidence direct to the District At
torney and to see that 1 am prosecuted
instead or taiKIng or It from the street
orrrrs. As for the assertion that has
been made that 1 have been carried
home drunk, no man may make that
assertion to my face without going to
tlie mat with me.
JT t.aaea Temper.
Mr. Joy sprang to Ma feel aa Mr.
Kvn finished speaking.
"I'll prove any assertion I ever made."
he shouted, "or I'll go to the mat with
him. I can name you six or seven po
licemen that have seen Mr. Evans car
ried home drunk by his friends."
"Name me one." said Mr. Evans,
calmly.
"I ran name seven." yelled Mr. Joy.
".Name one. Name him now." answered
Mr. Evans.
"I tell you I ran name seven for you,"
replied Joy furiously.
The chairman rapped loudly for order
as Mr. Evans attempted to speak, but
the audience shouted: "Let him go on;
Joy started It."
"Name me one of these policemen,"
Insisted Mr. Evans calmly.
"J say I cu name any number of
them." reiterated Joy. amid cries and
hisses from the crowd. Mr. Almquist,
as Councilman Joy showed no evidence
of becoming more definite In his state
ments, linally suppressed the discus
sion and continued with the pro
cramme. In the reply to Mr. Evans
Councilman Joy had devoted himself
to reiterating his assertions that he
could name "any . number of policemen
for Mm." but avoided his other state
ment about "Influencing candidates to
withdraw." Sympathy of the audience
was manifestly with Mr.' Evans aa soon
aa Mr. Joy began to speak the second
time.
i Twenty-eight candldatea were pres
ent and the evening waa filled with
minor causes for excitement, as one
candidate or another would bring out
charges of different klnda against opponents.
TIDELAND PROBLEM UP
fVoirrnop West Announce Meeting
to Discuss Titles.
Following a discussion of the ques
tion of ownership of tldelands on navi
gable streams, which has arisen from
the contemplated artlon of the Tort of
Portland In constructing a bulkhead In
the harbor of Portland and plac4na;
the dredginss from the river bottom
behind It. Governor West announced
at a meeting Friday night of represen
tatives of the Public lock Commission.
State Land Board and United Improve
ment Clubs Association in the City Hall
that he would call another meeting, at
which representatives of these bodlea
would confer regarding the question to
the end that the status of title to such
lands would be more definitely deter
mined. Governor West called the meeting to
order. F. W. Malkey. of the Public
Dock Commission, then presented the,
question.' at Issue. Ho expressed the
opinion that If the decisions- of the
courts gave title to land below low
water mark to the upland owner, the
proposal of the Port of Portland to use
the dredings from the- rival- channel
on this land would be an unwise pol
icy. He pointed cut that the city of Port
land had authorized the Issuance of
12,SO0.OuO In bonds for the construction
of public docks and that the Public
Ixx ks Commission waa now at work
on the proposition of providing them.
If the 6;ate of Oregon has a water
front title to waterfront property, that
Is. a title either from tho ordinary
high-water mark outward Into the
stream or from low-water mark out
Into the stream. It was very desirable
that legislation should be passed that
would conserve that title In trust as
far as the city of Portland la roncerned
for the use of the public, waa the opin
ion of Senator Mulkey.
lie pointed out that the general
n,M,rr of the law Oe t-hat title to the
beds of the streams Is In the public
and that In a navigable stream nothing
can be built that acts aa an obstruc
tion or Interferes with navigation, but
the bringing of a ship up a channel Is
only a part of the problem, and that
It Is aa much a public necessity to
dock It under favorable and econom
ical conditions aa It la to bring It up
a deep-water channel.
Senator Mulkey referred to several
acta of the Legislature and decisions of
the Supreme Court affecting the title to
overflow or tldelands. He referred es
pecially to the case of the State of
Oregon vs. the Oenersl Electric Com
pany, arising out of litigation at the
Oregon City locks. In which title was
declared only to extend to the high
water mark.
The rule, he said, was so firmly es
tablished that the court would not go
Into the Question. Whether there was
anything in the Port of Portland that
would. In the case of filling up to the
bulk-head line, taki away title from
the state, or whether It might be so
construed, be said he was unable to
say.
If they take the position that the
title Is given at high-water mark In
stead of low-water mark, he said, he
believed they based that opinion on
f..ti whlrh ft 1.1 nnl hV t hand.
But from the Investigation he had made i
he dlareed with them. If. however, j
It waa legal for the Port of Portland to .
take title, from the Stale of Oregon or .
the city of r-orysno. and put u in
the hands of the upland owner, he
thought It would be an act of discre
tion. He expressed the hope they
would not do so.
Governor West said he had made a
careful study of the question and cases
before the courts bearing on It. He ex
pressed a desire to do everything pos
sible to preserve the public title to the
lands In question.
The absence of ft. M. Mears, of the
Port of Portland, was regretted, as no
opportunity was given to hear the
Port's side of the Issue.

Two-to-Ono Decision Von In Argu
ment Where Salem Men Ipliold
Recall of Judges-
Trie University of Oregon law school
debating team defeated the team repre
senting the Willamette University law
school, of Salem Friday night. The
decision of the judges was two to one
for Oregon. The debate was held In
the Women of Woodcraft Hall, Tenth
anl Taylor streets.
The University of Oregon law school
debaters had the negative of the ques
tion. "Resolved, that all state Judges
should be subject to the recall." The
Judges were Judge William R. King. F.
Newton and Professor J. J. Stall, of
Heed College. Judger Henry K. Mc
Ginn presided.
lllamette s debaters were M. R. re
Long. Glenn T. Wells and George T.
Wilson. The Oregon law school's rep
resentatives were W. Slngletary, J.. W.
Peters and J. Bain.
Opening the debate for the affirma
tive. Mr. De Long said that the judi
ciary department was originally In
tended not to be superior to, but co
ordinate with the executive and legis
lative courts. There should be no spirit
of encroachment, but an equal balance
between the three must be retained, he
argued.
W. Slngletary, who spoke first for
Oregon, contended that under judicial
recall, the Judges would be placed more
and more under the thumb of corrupt
politicians. Recall In his opinion, l-
tempted to ameliorate conditions by
dmllng with results Instead of going
bark to the cause of the evil, and was
nothing more than an application of
political Instead of Judicial reform.
"There Is nothing Inherent to the of
fice of Judge to warrant Its exemption
from the recall." declared Mr. Wells,
who was Willamette's second speaker.
Mr. Peters ridiculed the efficiency of
the recall, asserting that it destroyed
Judiciary competency, while the stigma
attached to the judge who failed to win
on the recall, would be such aw to af
fect seriously his private practice sub
sequent on hla failure. In addition he
aald that people showed greater rare
n selecting a Judge for life than they
did under the recall system.
In closing for Willamette. Mr. Wil
son traced the Introduction of recall
aa due to the corruption of the Inde
pendent judges. He also pointed out
that the recall would raise toe moral
and Intellectual standard of the
KANSAS CITY. April 13. Tracy
Richardson, a Kansas City boy. though
shot through the lungs by federal bul
lets at the battle of Jimenez, won the
day for the rebel force under General
Orosco, when he climbed back Into the
saddle of his machine gun and swept
the government trenches. Under cover
of the fire, the Insurrecto cavalry
charged, routing the enemy.
This Information was conveyed to
friends here today In a letter from a
friend of Richardson, who witnessed the
battle of Jimenez a few weeks rko.
The writer praises the young American
greatly for his brave work in holding
the main position In the battle. His
action, the friend continues, won for
him the title of "the hero of Jimenez."
The letter says In part:
"Richardson was in the saddle of his
gun. The enemy had swept the plain
below him and Orozco's forces were
retiring. Richardson aimed his gun for
1000 yards. It swept the trench. Many
federals fell before they located his
position.
"Then a hail of lead shot fell about
the young American. almly he con
tinued firing with unerring aim. His
gun, firing 499 shots a minute, toppled
the frenchmen like tenpins until the
way seemed clear for Orozco's charge.
"Just when the busle sounded the
advance Richardson was hurled from
his seat, blood BDurting from his breast
and back. He pulled himself to his I
feet and saw that Orozco's cavalry,
started on the chargn, would be swept
by the federals. Sprawling back Into
his seat, stopping the flow of blood
from his wounds the best he could, he
resumed firing.
Cavalry Charge Covered.
"The cavalry continued the charge
under cover of the gun and routed the
federals. hlle the federals were be
lng pursued the young American was
lying unconscious beside his gun.
"Later Richardson's comrades found
him crawling through the niesqulte to
ward their camp."
Richardson recovered from his wound
and then notified his mother at Lamar,
Mo., of his experience. The young man
is the son of the late A. R. Richardson,
formerly a contractor of Kansas City.
Me has served in three campaigns?
first with K-strada in Nicaragua, the
with Christmas in Honduras, and in
the present uprising in Mexico. He
2.1 years old. Ho rait away from home
when 15 years old.
Colonel sat quite still, looking straight
ahead with a quizzical expression.
When he arose, he said:
" "I know you wished me to come to
Massachusetts to tell you the reasons
for the faith that lies In me. Mr. Mc
Kechnio has said .your association
wishes entire freedom of speech. That
Is no Jest. You 'Wish any man to speak
with frankness, and I could not come
here and refrain from speaking of pol
itics, because with me politics repre
sents the deepest convictions as to the
vital needs of the country, and, of
course. I shall speak to you of them."
The Colonel's hearers hardly knew at
first how to receive what he said, but,
as he went on. ho was Interrupted fre
quently with applause.
He then explained his Ideas In regard
to the courts, quoting several laws
which he said the courts unjustly had
overturned.
"One of the movements we Intend to
bring about." he aald, "Is that Instead
of two 12-hour shifts, seven days of the
week, for workmen, we will have three
eight-hour shifts fur six days a week."
Colonel Roosevelt went to the Cen
tral High School, where he spoke for
a few minutes. Then he went to his
car to leave late at night for Nashua,

plain clotheemen to investigate, and
that Mrs. O'Neal, who rents moor
ings to 40 scows, was angry thereat.
When she vented her Indignation upon
Mrs. Hoskin In language extremely
unladylike. Hosklns advised his wife
to "go to It." and she did.
"I was surprised." said Hosklns. "I
never had seen my wife fight, and she
la only as big as a minute, but she
waded In and gave the other woman a
good bat on the nose."
"This woman has been married four
times," he added. .
"That's none of your business,"
shouted Mrs. O'Neal, from her seat In
the court.
"And she carries an axe along the
beach, on her shoulder, and has all the
men buffalowed." continued Hosklns.
Hosklns has a poor opinion of his
neighbors. He says that though ha

landlady, there was no demonstration,
although the brush along the bank
waa fringed with masculine heads, of
which the bodies were Invisible.
The defendant showed such a belli

a long and heated argument was heard

to whether the seventh will in the J. 1

fact that the law requires any contest

vLOKDOK. April 13. The adjournment
until Monday of the home rule debate
in the House of Commons haa Kiven
an Interval In which the opinion of pub
lic men of all classes are being can
vassed. As far as details are con
cerned. especially of the complex finan
cial proposals of th bill, it will be
necessary to await until the measure
is in print, which probably will be
Wednesday.
On the stock exchange, the Introduc
tion of the bill had no effect. Con
sols rose slightly, but Irish bank and
land stocks prices did not change. ' Ac
cording; to the Unionist view, the fail
ure of the measure to effect prices was
due to a belief among bankers and fin
anciers that the bill never would be
come a law. Criticism of the measure
seems likely to fasten itself upon the
financial proposals not only on the part
of the opponents, but also supporters
of the bill, as the financial scheme, to
gether with the clause calling' for a
nominated Senate, are considered its
weakest spots.

contribution to the army, navy or dip
lomatic service is condemned; it is pre
dicted that such a scheme of dual gov
ernment as the bill proposes, would
lead to constant friction between the
imperial and Irish Parliaments, because
the imperial Parliament, the Lord
Lieutenant of Irelcnd, and the privy
council each would possess the power
to vote over the Irish Parliament.
The Spectator described the bill as
foolish and cowardly. It says the gov
ernment, afraid to grant the National
ists' demand for colonial home rule,
bribed them Into accepting much less
to begin with, but In allowing 40 Irish
members to remain In Westminster has
provided them with an instrument for
extorting in the future full colonial
powers. The Spectator adds that as
the Nationalists eventually will get
both the bribe and full powers, they
are naturally content.
