Idleman Delivers Strong Address in its Behalf at Odd Fellows Hall. MORE POWER TO VOTERS. Saturday night shopping and other week-end attractions rather detracted from the attendance at the speech of C. M. Idlejnan of Portland, former attorney general of Oregon, at the Odd Fellows hall in behalf of the candidacy of H. M. Cake for United States senator and support ing Statement No. 1. Much regret was expressed that a larger au dience did not hear the clear and forcible argument for and in ex planation of Statement No. 1. Dr. E. Mlngus, who was expected to introduce Mr. Idleman, was not able to be present and I. S. Smith officiated. Mr. Smith took advantage of the opportunity to reiterate his belief In Statement No. 1 and alter doing so said that he was glad to ho able to introduce so able an ex ponent ol It as Mr. Id. email. "I have not hoard a single logical argument advanced against State ment No. 1," said Mr. Idloinan. "You all know what the primary law is and are agreed that It shall never bo abolished. Statement No. 1 sim ply makes it more complete, enabl ing the people to select their United States senators. I think that you, at least all of you who have given It attention, are agreed that the principal opposition to Statement No. 1 comes from the old machine poli ticians. "Some of the opponents have at tempted to show that Statement No. 1 was inimical to party welfare. It is not. It and the primary law, of which It Is a part, provide that tho voters of the various parties in each precinct shall elect precinct commit teemen, making a county organiza tion. These committeemen and other members of tho parties may hold county conventions, draft plat forms and, If they think It wise, en dorse or recommend candidates. Itlmls Party Together. "At present, some claim that the adoption of Statement No. 1 would mean that Governor Chamberlain, a democrat, would be the next United States senator from Oregon. That is all Imagination. The Republican party has a good big majority in Oregon and the Republican ticket will have a majority of at least 10, 000. At any rate, there would be no danger of a Democrat getting the Indorsement of the people for United States senator If tho candidates tor the legislature would feel themselves hpund to elect the candidate who re ceives tho indorsement of tho peo ple. Tho knowledge that they would havo to abide by the people's in structions would result In their get ting out and working hard at tho Juno election to see that tho Re publican candidate gets the indorse ment so that theie would bo no dan ger of their having to vote for a Democrat. In other words, tho ties that bind them to party fealty will he more closely drawn by Statement No. 1 than they havo ever been drawn under old conditions. For People (o Decide. "Some try to claim it is unconsti tutional. It is not. Tho Constitu tion provides that tho United States senators shall be elected by the Stato legislatures in the manner that each may provide. '1 he Oregon legislature has said through the enactment and submission of State ment No. 1 that it will elect the peo ple's choice if the people doalro it. "Popular election of United States senators Is not now. Over thirtj two states have declared for it in recent years and five times slnci 1S9ii, the house ol representatives has passed resolutions asking tho senate to amend the Constitution to make its application general. Each time t ho senate has balked. If there hail been popular election ol sen ators, there would bo no foundation for tlie charges that various men have bought their way Into tho r tilt ed States senate by bribing State legislatures. In our own State of Oregon, we would have been saved these scandals In tho past and our State legislature would not have wasted over llvo years, thore In the aggregate, in balloting on candidates for senator. The adoption of State ment No. 1 will mean that the legis lature will settle the senator ques tlon In about two hours when It conies up and havo tho remainder of the session to devote to the people's business. PmlM of Cnl.e. "I wish also to say a word for 11. M. Cake, a candidate for United States senator this time. I have known him from boyhood ami know him to bo a (rue, able conscientious man. He Is familiar with the needs of every part of Oregon and will work for the Interests of the State as a whole. He is a linn believer in Statement No. 1 and a supporter of It because It enables the people to nominate their candidates for otllce Itihtead of having a small bunch of machine politicians gather in a room in Portland and name the candidates for tho people to vote upon. "1 urge you to vote for Mr. Cake and a forty-foot channel for Coos Hay." Mr. Idleman told In a humorous way of the trials ho had encountered In reaching Coos Hay by the over laud route from Drain and declared that tho next time he came ho ex pected to rldo all tho way In a Pull man car, which was roundly applauded. 13 sEEffiESEZHuKsssaBasa fr'aSSSiffifKE Sherwin-Williams When you want the best grade of Paint for your dwelling, store or furniture, you will find S.

Defeats Marshfield Ly Score of Eight to Three in Sunday Baseijall Game. There have been no developments In the Coos Day oil situation the last couple of days, so far as can be learned. The Alliance arrived today but did not have any machinery for drilling. The ship's ollicers said that il. it. V. Crittenden's representatives stated that there was some delay in getting it. The drilling machinery will bo capable of sinking a hole 1.U00 feet deep. Local parties who are said to interested with Mr. Crittenden are keeping mum but are confident over tho prospect's. Tho story, which Mr. Crittenden denied In his telegram to The Times tho other day was printed in the Portland Journal and was as fol lows: "Crude petroleum in what prom ises to bo good quantities has been found in the C003 Day country about I showed up best yesterday. iccoruing to 4 0 miles from Bandon, It. F. Crittenden of Marshlleld, who Is now In Portland making arrange ments to ship a load of machinery to tho scene to develop the properties. "Mr. Crittenden is managing the business near Dandon and Is repres enting a group of men, some of them of Portland, who have put their money Into tho prospect. "According to the story of Mr. Crittenden, the company has struck oil In their prospect well after hav ing gone down 530 feet. Tho flow was such as to come to tho surface of the ground and proves to be oil of iiood ciuallty. The company back of the property has a lease on -10,000 acres of land In tho vicinity and is confident of being able to open up an oil region of magnitude. Eastern ex perts who havo examined the prop erty say the oil and the manner of tlnding It give color to tho assump tion that it can bo found In paying quantities by lurther development work. "Mr. Crittenden will ship a large amount of machinery for Dandon on the Alliance, which sails on Saturday i next. The preliminary organisation ' of the company has been formed and i tho hoard of directors includes some of tho leading men of the Coos Day country, as well as some well-known i iir.'n of Portland." ! North Bend took Mai-ohfleld ilow.i the lino In the baseball game on lb-1 North Dead grounds again yesterday , to the tune of 8 to 3. There was a good turnout and some pretty good ball was seen, even If the game was more la the nature oi a workout I than a regular match game. Marshfield scored their only three runs in their half of the first Inning. I After that, their only good prospect uo for scoring was when McCutchen lauded tor a tnree bagger out wa called out by tho Umpire who claim ed that he "cut" ilrst. North Bend scored seven of their eight runs off Butler In tho first four innings. Then Butler gave way to Taylor who held them down to one. McCutchen on third, Bryan as catcher and Taylor as pitcher were among Marshfleld's new men who The line up was ennnged a number ot times during the game in order to give all a chance to practise and at the same time as a precaution not to overdo thorn. Wilson and Felter was the battery for North Bend. Manager Howard is figuring on calling the' postponed meeting of the North Bend, Dandon and Coquille managers to be held here some day this week to arrange a schedule for tno season. Arrangements will prob ably be made then for Dandon and Coqui.lo to fence In their grounds.
