replied that the new rates were experi
mental, and if the trade would stand
them they would be maintained, but if
not satisfactory, tho Yates would be re
stored to the old figures. It was his
opinion as woll as Mr. Ilatriinan'e,
that lumbermen wore extremely pros
perous, and tliat their largo contracts
justified the raise.
Later, when the subject was broached
to James J. Hill by the Puget sound

retorted that, while many mills had

OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST
ORCHARD ON STAND.
"Washington, Dec. 12. President
Roosevolt will not be a candidate for a
third term. All doubt on this point
was last night dispelled by tho author
ative statement, from tho White House,
that Mr. Roosevelt still adheres to the
declaration of renunciation made on
the night of the election three years
ago.
It appears that tho president had
been awaiting the call for the Repub
lican national convention to afford the
proper opportunity for making his po
sition clear and unmistakable, thus
leaving' the field clear for other do
clared or receptive candidates for tho
Republican nomination. The presi
dent's statement follows:
"In view of the calling of the Repub
lican convention, the president makes
the following statement:
" 'On the night after electionJI made
the following announcement:
" 'I am deeply sensible of the honor
done me by the American people in
thus expressing their confidence in
what I have done and have tried to do.
I appreciate to the full the solemn re
sponsibility this confidence imposes
upon me, and I shall do all that lies in
my power not to forfeit it. On the
4th of March next, I shall have served
three and a half years and this tbree
and a half years constitutes my first
term. The wise custom which limits
the president to two terms regards the
substance and not the form, and under
no circumstances will I be a candidate
for or accept another nomination."

Harriman Negotiating for Immunity
From Prosecution.
Chicago, Dec. 12. A dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington, says:
Negotiations are under way between
the attorney general and E. H. Harn
man looking to an agreement by which
the Union Pacific will abandon all its
direct control of the Southern Pacific,
in return for which tbei government
will agree not to prosecute Mr. Harri
man for violation of the anti-trust law
and of the competitive clauses in the
interstate commerce law. The negotia
tions have not actually been concluded,
but they have reached a stage where it
is believed an agreement will been
tered into.
No Trouble at Goldfield When
union Men Take Charge.
Goldfield, Nev., Dec. 13. The first
day of tho attempt to re-open the mines
of Goldfield without tho aid of tbo
Western Federation of Miners has
passed, and there has not been a single,
instance of attempted violence or dis
order in the camp. Unarmed pickets
of the Goldfield miners union have ap
proached as close to the scene of the
operations as the armed guards of the
Mineowners' association would permit
and have succeeded in inducing soma of
those who had signed the agreement to
return to work, to violate that agree
ment and leave the mines.
It was stated last night that the lead
ers of the strike have secured what evi
dence they want to prosecute some of
the mining opeiators under a statute it
the state of Nevada, which makes it a
crime punishable by a fine of not less
tban $50 or more than $300, or impris
onment for not less than 20 nor more
than 150 days, or both, to require nn ,
emploje to promise or agree not to be-1
come a member or remain a member of
any labor organization. Arrests may
be expected at any time, it is stated by
some, wnue otners characterize tue
whole report of probable arrest as a
bluff.

NEW YORK PAPERS' OPINIONS.
What Was Expected, But Third Term
ers Can't Be Silenced.
New York, Dec. 12. Regarding Pres
ident Roosevelt's announcement that
he adheres to his determination not
again to be a candidate, the New York
papers this morning say:
Herald Those who j from the first
have had full faith in the sincerity of
Mr Roosevelt's declaration that he
would not accept a nomination will
now Eay, "Why, of course." On the
other hand, those who have argued
that he could not decline if the conven
tion should overwhelmingly demand
him as a candidate will remark, "We
shall see." And there you are.
Times Mr. Roosevelt's statement is
what those who respeted him most and
knew him best expected him to make.
No different statement was possible.
World So far as words go, President
Roosevelt could not take a more posi
tive stand. At this late day can he
stop it? Can ho turn back the tide?
Suppose tho Roosevelt shoutera, as
Governor Iloch, of Kansas, has threat
ened, ride over the convention like a
herd of Texas steers, will he still de
cline? Will ho be able to decline?
Steamers Dodging Texas Law.
Pensacola, Fla. , Dec. 12. Fearing
that the vessels might be seized upon
the judgment secured against the com

ard Oil company yesterday ordered the
steamer Captain A. F. Lucas and Bark
No. 95 to proceed from this port to sea
and not to come within three miles of
shore until further orders were re
ceived. Tho vessels, both of which are
among the largest of tho oil carrying
fleet of the company, had juBt returned
from London, where they carried an
immense quantity of oil.
Babes Saved From Big Fire.
Cincinnati, Ohio, Dec. 12. Fire
early today almost completely wiped
out tho big plant of the Pau Manufac
turing company, makers of plumbers'
supplies in Reading Road. Tenants of
houses in the rear of the burning plant
fled from their homos and policemen
-carried sleeping babies from the row of
frame tenements on West Twelfth

.1125,000 to $150,000, partially insured.

National Democratic Convention Is
Called for July 7, 1908.
Washington, Dec. 13. After decid
ing to nolo cue next uemoratic na
tional convention at Denver, and fixing
the date of the meeting for July 7,
1908, the Demoratic National commit
tee late yesterday entered upon a spir
ited debate on the propriety of accept
ing moro of the 100,000, offered by
Denver for the convention than is act
ually needed to pay the convention ex
penses in that city. The opposition to
the acceptance of the contribution took
the form of a resolution by Represent
ative Clayton, of Alabama, declining
money not actually needed for the con
vention, but after a long debate the
resolution was Jam on the table by a
vote of 31 to 14.
Mr. Clayton, Representative John
Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, and
Governor Hoke Smith, of Georgia, all
Bpoke in favor of the passage of the
resolution.
Mr. Taggart advocated tho acceptance
of the $ 100,000, saying it would be
needed now even worse than it was
needed in 1904, and that at that time
it would have been practically impossi
ble to open headquarters for Judpe
Parker if the committee had not had
the extra money secured from St.
Louis, where the convention was hold.
Men Fed Through "Pipe.
Reno, Nev., Dec. 13. The three
miners Brown, McDonald and Bailey,
who have been entombed for a week in
a drift at tho 110-foot level of the Al
pha shaft of the Giroux mino at Ely,
still are alive and are able to commu
nicate with the miners at the top of
the shaft. They have been given food
enougli through the six-inch water pipe
connecting with the surface to last
them a week, and in case this pipe is
broken they will not die of starvation
or thirst. Tho work of clearing the
shaft is progressing slowly.
Roosevelt Sends Commission.
Washington, Dec. 13. Assistant Sec
retary Murray, of the department of
Commerco nnd Labor, Commissioner
Charles P. Nelll and Herbert Knox
Smith, commissioner of orporations,

Men Do More Work.
Klamath Falls, J. D. Church, as
sistant engineer of the Southern Pa
cific, has just returned from the end of
the California Northeastern railway
and states that the 350 men now at
work for Ericson & Peterson, the con
tractors, are doing more work than the
1,100 men they were working last sum
mer. The grade between Bray and the
first townsite, Mount Hebron, is about
completed, and Mount Hebron may re
main the terminus of tho road for this
winter. However, as Dorris is only 13
miles distant from Mount Hebron and
the grade very easy, that town may be
the terminus.
Embryo Farmers Interested.
