told her that she owned a roomer;; -house
property, and that the property
about it was owned by one of the big
corporations; that the big corporations
wanted to buy Mrs. Dudley's property
so they could sell it all to a railroad
company, but wouldn't pay what the
property was worth, and so began the
persecutions.
Pinned down Miss O'Bryon admitted
that Mrs. Dudley had not told her of a
belief that there was any attempt to
take her life, had not told her of the
"murder squad.'' had not told her of
attempts to poison fcer.
Dr. E. R. Allman and Dr. A. J. Mc
7otyre, of Hoquiam, both of whom had
examined Mrs. Dudley as to her sanity,
declared her sane. They had not been
told that she had at one time believed
?be was being pursued by a "murder
squad." and knew nothing of alleged
attempts at poisoning.
Mrs. Ellen J. Scott, of the Tacoma
Woman's Club, which also interested
itself in the case of Mrs. Ross recent
ly, testified that she had been with
Mrs. Dudley for two days and had
discovered nothing to indicate insanity.

with the late Judge Irwin, were the
commission upon whose examination
Mrs. Ddley was first sent to Steila

refrigerator car. the first for four days.
The local storage terminals are fast
filling up with apples, and unless cars
are available soon growers will prob
ably be filling the basements of local

wheat. We are investigating to find
whether or not this is true," said Wil

find the statement authentic and deem
it important enough to warrant a pro
test -o the de facto government, or a
request for Mr. Cabrera's recall, the
commission's work might be postponed
indefinitely if not suspended altogether.
It appeared certain tonight that no step
would be taken until Secretary Lane,
as head of the American commission,
had been consulted, and it was not be
lieved a request would be made for a
-recall.
In some quarters it was argued that
Mr. Cabrera might have intended the
jiublication of his statement as pre
liminary to the definite abandonment
of the effort to compose border diffi
culties through the joint commission.
The known fact that little progress has
been made in many weeks of discussion
was cited to support this view.

General Carranza added that his gov

Mexico.
The statement, . which was the first

Hn. Margaret R.Roth.
DUFUB, Or., Oct. 28 (Special.)
Mrs. Margaret R. Roth died
Monday, October 23, at the home
of her daugjiter, Mrs. Owen
Jones. Mrs. .Roth was born in
Germany in 1849 and came, with
her parents, to Madison. Wis., in
1851. where she was married in
1867 to John M. Roth. For the
next two or three years after
their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Roth
lived in Minnesota; then moved to
Kansas, from which state they
came to Oregon in 1875. living
for about six months in the Wil
lamette Valley, and then moving
to Wasco County.
Mrs. Roth is survived by her
husband, John M. Roth, and eight
children Mrs. Horatio Fargher,
Mrs. Owen Jones and John Roth,
of Dufur; Mrs. W. E. Sheehan, of
Waterville, Wash.; R. V. Roth
and C C. Roth, of Palisades,
Wash., and Mrs. R. M. Russell, of
Appledale, Wash.
All of these reports are absolutely
false.
"In the last few days the constitu
tionalists have defeated the followers
of Felix Diaz, Diaz himself escaping
across the border of Chiapas and tak
ing refuge in Guatemala. All the Zap
atistas have been forced to take to
the mountains, as all the cities and
towns are in control of the government.
The only active movement has been
that of the Villlstas in Chihua.iua.
which has been able to continue on ac
count of the facilities the enemies of
the government have acquired in the
United States to foment and aid the
movement, but it is sure the govern
ment will eventually suppress the
movement.
"The newspapers say that hunger is
being felt in Mexico. This is untrue,
as there is no lack of food and the new
harvest has bettered the situation while
reducing the price of cereals and ar
ticles of prime necessity.
"It is also affirmed that there has
been a split in the constitutionalist
ranks, while the facts are that the
greatest generals and the most im
portant civilians have united in the
Constitutionalist-Liberal party, which
is being joined by similar organizations
throughout the republic.
"This party has conferred the nomi
nation for president, which I accepted
after a formal offer had been made by
the commission. including euch as
Ednardo Hay, the president of the
party, and Generals Gonzalez and Obre
gon. This party is preparing for tho
campaign and all are disposed to sus
tain the government under my charge.
"My family is now on a trip to the
United States, but soon will rejoin me,
a I am indisposed -to abandon this
city because of the suppose! machina
tions against me, which do not exist,
or the threats of the Zapatistas. I
will leave the capital only when the
time arrives for the constitutionalist
astsembly to congregate at Queretaro."

Spirited in the extreme was a politi

Wolfe & Co. auditorium, where the Em

real contest between Hughes and Wil

R. C. Dolvin, president of the Em

blasts from claxton auto horns and wild
ovations.
Debaters for the Wilson side of last
night's arguments were Mrs. R. Tomlin

HOT CAMPAIGN CONDUCTED
Attack Made on Walter Xi. Tooze, Jr.,
Candidate for District Attorney,
Alleging Unfair Treatment
of Clients, Answered.
DiLLAS. Or.. Oct. 28. (Special.)
The chances are that the Republican
ticket. National, state and county, will
carry victors In this county. Conserva
tive citizens place the Hughes majority
at a figure between 800 and 1000. Men
are making wagers that this lead will
be shown at the polls.
The Polk central committee has
waged a live campaign throughout the
county. Ex-Senator Burton, of Ohio,
was obtained for a speech here the
only one he made in Oregon on his most
recent trip. A series of IB old-faeh-ioned,
red-fire meetings is being held
throughout the county.
For a time it appeared that the vic
tory in Polk would be without features,
as far as the county ticket was con
cerned. Then the Democratic nominee
for District Attorney and friends in
jected some "pep" by making certain
claims in regard to the widowe' pension
cases in which the Republican candi
date, Walter L. Tooze. Jr., was con
cerned. Mr. Tooze effectively answered
the arguments and silenced the stories
by printing the entire record of the
case over his signature, together with
affidavits from some of the widows.
Though lie had covered the county
once, Mr. Tooze started out again. He
took one of his widow clients along
with him to each meetltrg and told the
people they might ask her as to the
truth or falsity of the stories being
Circulated to the effect that he had
robbed his clients. It is believed that
Mr. Tooae converted a doubtful ma
jority into a real landslide.
Mark V. Weatherford ha not cam

a considerable increase, will be re

criticised, made a bid for the German
vote, and paid his disrespects to Colonel
Theodore Roosevejt. He called Colonel
Roosevelt "the Colonel from Dead Dog
Gulch, whereat a gale of Democratic
merriment arose.
Republirans Praised for Votes.
"'I want to take up some of the
things that have been said against
Woodrow Wilson in his own party."
said Colonel Wood in this stage of his
address.
And a moment later, praising Pro
gressives and progressive Republicans
who voted for the child labor bill, he
said frankly:
"With the , manufacturing cotton
South against the child labor bill, it
couldn't have passed without the aid
of the Progressives and the progressive
Republicans."
Colonel Wood's address was in part
as follows:
"Woodrow Wilson will never have to
strive for fame. He's already got it.
He is already one of the immortals. I
would like to feel that this meeting is
not altogether one of Democratic af
fection. I would rather feel that this
is a non-paytisan gathering of Amer
ican citizens.
Attack on President Itesrnted.
"In this country and crucial time,
when mere labels ought to become as
the breath to be blown aside, and the
great substantials of humanity ought
to govern, I would like to feel that this
meeting is one on the part of his fel
low citizens to do honor to the man
who, in .the midst of a world carried
away by insanity, has led us out of a
narrow and insular position, has led us
out as a great world power, and a pow
er making for honor and peace Wood
row Wilson.
"We have had much, too much, of
Americanism loyalty American citi
zenship honorable citizenship. I tell
you it is not my idea of Americanism to
have the prominent men who have risen
to the top in this Nation, from mere
lust of office or disappointed ambition,
going about tho country hurling at
their President and our President
words of contumely and vituperation,
cowardice, vacilliation charges that he
is weak and has dishonored American
citizenship.
Rcapeet for Candidate Dented.
"I care not what party I belong to,
to deny the first principle of fair play
and honesty its not my idea of Ameri
can citizenship. I have no respect for
the candidate for the high office of
President of the United States and his
militant backers who have gone
throughout this country without a
whisper of commendation, of intelli
gent explanation to their fellow coun
trymen of the Kreat deeds Woodrow
Wilson and the Democratic party have
performed.
"What do you think of the candi
date who has had not one word to eay
of the Federal reserve act. that has
made panics forever impossible not
one word to say? "
"Is this silence as of the mummy and
the tomb to be interpreted that it is
a good work and cannot be attacked,
or is it to be interpreted as a sur
render, as Mr. Root termed it, of all
that had been won since the defeat of
free silver, and the McKinley admin
istration and that the true financial
system was that embodied in the Aid
rich bill, with a central bank, to be
dominated, as I understand it. by the
financial internets of Wall street?
Silence on Act Assailed.
"What do you think of this same
aspirant asking for the dismissal of
our President, and his return to pri
vate life, who has not one word to say,
good or bad, for the rural credit act?
"If Woodrow Wilson and the Demo
cratic Administration had nothing else
to their credit but these two acts, which
lay the foundation for a lasting pros
perity, these two would have been
enough.
"Have you seen in the speeches of the
aspirant for Mr. Wilson's place any
credit for the tariff commission and
the Underwood trafiff? They say the
Underwood tariff is too low. Well, the
trouble with the Republican tariffs
preceding it was that they were too
hie'h.
"Mr.- Hughes has been crying that
the blood-stained and economically im
poverished European countries will
dump things on this land. He said be
wants to be there as the protector of
protection. He will protect it as he
protected the 2-cent fare bill, because
it was too burdensome on the railroads.
And I say that, like another bearded
gentleman who will go down in history
as the greatest pleepor of its time, Mr.
Hughes, like Rip Van Winkle, has been
asleep.
Faith Pnt la Commission.
"I want to win any Republican who
is a large-hearted Republican and on
the fence. Tou may say to your Re
publican friend that if the American
workman, if American industry needs
protection, wherever it is needed, the
tariff commission, non-partisan, com
poesd of experts, will lay the tariff
where it belongs without regard to in
terests." He said Mr. Hughes would "make tie
non-partisan tariff commission a non
entity and put it out of commission."
"You have heard some criticism of
the child labor act." continued Colonel
Wood. "They say it only applies to
children making products subject to
interstate commerce. But I say it was
the step as far as President Wilson
could go under the Constitution, and it
ill becomes anybody to carp and criti
cise that he didn't step further, do the
impossible and violate th Constitution
itself. And when the step has been
taken, it augurs well for the future
that by this Federal act states will be
forced into action.
Coercion Is Denied.
"Then it is said that he meekly and
tamely yielded to coercion in the Adam
son act.
"Ail that Woodrow Wilson did. all
that Congress did. was this: They said,
wo are not going to argue and carp
and criticise on this one feature of the
laboring man's demand, the eight-hour
day, because the eight-hour day has
passed into the consciousness of civil
ized manhood. But all else will be the
subject of careful Federal investiga
tion. "Now the A dam son act. like the child
labor act. has a moral influence far be
yond its legal effect. And I want to
tell you that in passing the Adamson
act Uncle Joe Cannon led the stam
pede from the Republican party to fa
vor it. and there wasn't a word of
criticism in the Senate.
"It has been said that the Adamson
act didn't accomplish anything. It
served its purpose and stopped the
strike. And Woodrow Wilson, who. in
a way. injected himself into the con
troversy, paid that he d'd so not as a
partisan of the railroad men or the
railroad magnates, but as the agent of
the people of the whole United States."
Colonel Wood said Wri!son had made
his creed in every act, "People before
prosperity." He went on: "Don't let
us forget that time and time again,
in every one of these crucial moments,
there came to Wilson's aid that splen
did body of Progressives and those pro.
gresslve Republicans, such men as Vic
tor Murdock and Robert LaFollette."
free Toll Discussed.
Discussing the repeal of the Panama
Canal free tolls, contrary to the Demo
cratic platform pledge. Colonel Wood
said, in part: I know nothing that is
more brilliant than the wreath of laurel
that will some day rest on his brow,
that when he came into office and ex
amined the treaties and found in plain
English that the ships -of all nations
should pass through the canal on an
equality with our ships.- he said. 'Our
Nation's word of honor is more to me
than the declaration of any party plat
form.' . "He has been criticised as having
lowered the standard of American citi
zenship, as having left the American
citizen unprotected and unguarded. I
tell you, judging on these facts with
your hindsight months afterward hi
mighty different from having to de
cide at the moment. And as I look
back I find that the President was al
ways right.
Bid Made for German . Vote.
"I would like to win any German
vot in this audience." continued tho
Colonel, taking up a discussion of the
President's handling of tho Eluropean
situation. He declared that Wilson had
abided strictly by international law and
In his every act had preferred humanity
to property.
Of the Mexican situation, he said in
part: "I want you to understand that
statement of the Colonel from Dead Dog
Gulch that if Bucky hadn't been killed
at San Juan hill or some other hill,
Bucky would have cleaned up the whole
border in six weeks or six months, it
doesn't matter how long. I want you
to get the background of the Mexican
situation, that's the only way you can
understand it. You can't understand it
from the pronounciamentos hurled
through the big teeth of Colonels from
Dead Dog Gulch. You'll find that in
handling the Mexican situation the
President had preferred people to prop
erty. History Kapected to Honor.
"The Colonel says there were more
Americans lost their lives along the
Rio Grande than lost their lives in the
whole Spanish-American war. Well,
there were only a little more than 3u0
American lives lost in the Spanish War
and he didn't take one of them. There
were more than 300 lives lost in con
flicts witli the bandits that overran
Missouri during the Civil War."
Speaking of the vacillation charged
to President Wilson, Colonel Wood de
clared he "is as consistent as the needle
to the pole, if you understand the sub
ject. "Our President." be concluded, "will
go down into history as tho man who
found a better way to settle disputes
than by war and slaughter."
