Men of Clatsop, who stand for Republicanism and all it means, let us unite this day to win the battle for supremacy in
Oregon. If differences, doubts or dubious things have troubled us in the past, let us forget them, and merge our known strength for o
the honor of the county and state, this day. Let us show the "Citizen-Democrats" that we are still the dominant party in Clatsop g
as we are in Oregon and that we know our place and power in determining the men and methods and measures that are best for ?
this political division. What of personal divergence may exist among us, is nothing in the scale of importance to our regaining the o
prestige that is ours by right of fixed majority, here. To do the best that is in us, as Republicans, for our home and our state, let g
us vote unitedly today and share the common benefits that must surely accrue from such simple doing of our greatest duty. Any- g
thing less than this is wanton waste of a prime opportunity. o

eleven were killed and a score injuivd,
two of whom died was caused by the

sharp curve below. The car was thrown
twenty feet from the track. In an ef

Merchants and fishermen voters, these are cold facts.
Governor Chamk'rlain did not sign the fishing bill to
extend the salmon season as the faws of 1903 will show.
Governor Chamberlain did not stand by the fishermen
of the lower Columbia River on any fish legislation at the
last session of the Legislature, for he signed none.
Governor Chamberlain vetoed three bills for the pro
tection of fish.
Xo person has fought the fishing interests of the lower
Columbia River any more than V. A. Seufcrt, who has
many wheel on the upper Columbia River and does seining
very close, if not upon spawning bars and shallow waters
where fish are wont to lie, and who caught upon said bars
and in holes adjacent to same in his seines about 80 tons of
fish in one dav of 24 hours.
The interest of F. A. Seufert is directly against the
interests of the lower Columbia River fishermen and busi
ness men.
Governor Chamberlain vetoed a bill closing hatchery
streams and prohibiting fishing on spawning bars or shal
lows, and which is a direct blow to your interests.
F. A. Seufert presided at the Chamberlain meeting at
the Dalles, Ore., on, May 2:?, 1906.
You can draw vour own conclusions as to the reason
for the vetoing of the bill for the protection of the salmon
and prohibiting fishing on the spawning bars which was
vetoed by Governor George & Chamberlain.
If Governor Chamberlain had your interests at heart,
why did he not sign the bill extending the fishing season
and not file it with the Secretary of State without his signa
ture? What bill did he sign which is a benefit to the fishing
industry on the lower Columbia River ?
The business people of Astoria raised a sum of money
to defray the expenses of. a committee to go to Salem dur
ing the session of the Legislature to further legislation to
the interests of the fishing industry.
Mr. II. M. Lorentsen, one of the committee, was pres
ent during the session of 1905 when the bill for the protec
tion of the fishing industry was prepared, and he appeared
before the committee on fisheries in both houses, as a repre
sentative of the fishermen, was satisfied section by section
of the bill prepared and which vas passed by both House
and Senate unanimously and went to the Governor in that
shape, and the Governor vetoed the bill.
Now you find Mr. Lorentsen one of the members of the
committee who attended the Legislature and used the
money donated by the people for the purpose of defraying
their expenses, working for George E. Chamberlain's elec
tion. He, knowing that Governor Chamberlain vetoed the
bill in which he and all the lower Columbia River fishermen
were directly interested, and which is inconsistent on the
part of Mr. Lorentsen.
Governor Chamberlain has been tried and is opposed
to your interests.
All circulars are by the executive committee.
Be sure and go to the polk and vote for James Withy
combe for Governor, as he is your friend.

BOMB THROWER SUICIDES
VHEN HE IS ARRESTED
Anarchist Who Attempted to Kill Alphoso and His
Bride is Detected. Kills Officer and
Then Shoots Himself.
MADRID. June 3. The capture and I Morales deliberately pointed the weapon
suicide Saturday night at Torrejou De
Ardos of Manuel Morales, the chief sus
pect as to the bomb outrage against
Alfonso and Victoria, adds another dra
matic chapter to the events surround
ing the royal wedding. It was eight
o'clock on Saturday evening when
Morales, disguised a a workingman, en
tered the station at Torrejon de Ardos.
He asked a child who was in charge of
the office the time of the departure of
the next train for Barcelona. Then he
sought food in a nearby shop where his
Catalonian accent attracted attention.
His new workman's suit and the fact
that his face and manners showed him
to be above his station, were also no
ticed. A private watchman from a
neighboring estate, who chanced to be
present noticed his resemblance to the
description given of the man seen on
the balcony from which the bomb was
thrown. The guard also noticed the
man's wounded finger, and a small fresh
scar on his forehead. The stranger
strolled away, but the watchman inter
cepted him and demanded his identity.
Morales Shoots Himself.
Morales declined to give this, where
upon the guard arrested him, instantly
Morales drew a revolver and shot the
guard dead. Morales started up the
road, but a small group of villagers
barred his passage and turning around
to his heart and fired. The fact that
there was nothing on the body to lead
to identification created doubt whether
the man was Morales; but when the
governor of Madrid arrived with
Cuesta, the identification waa positive.
The body was then brought to Madrid,
as the villagers at Torrejon de Ardos,
indignantly refused to permit interment
in that town. The body of Morales waa
exposed this afternoon for the purpose
of allaying public indignation. Public
feeling is intense, because of the great
number of victims and it is seldom a
bomb explosion has such a deadly effect;
in this instance there being twenty-four
killed and more than eighty wounded.
The final disposition of the body is not
yet determined, but the public demands
an ignominious burial.
Fear Another Bomb.
The gala performance tonight at the
opera had a remarkable interruption. It
was discovered Saturday that one
ticket for the performance was miss
ing. This had a suggestive meaning as
the officials scrupulously keep track of
the distribution of all of them. The
entire issue was cancelled an another of
a different color substituted. The change
caused great confusion, but was consid
ered imperative, in order to guard
against the possibility of the missing
ticket giving access to a person, who
might throw a bomb.
WILL NOT CROSS BORDER.
WASHINGTON. June 3.-The proba
bilities are that the four troops of cav
alry, which went to Naeo on account of
the riot at La. Cananea, Mexico, will be
ordered to Fort Huachuca in a few davs.
Word comes from Colonel Stewart, the
commanding officer at Fort Huachuca.
that it was never intended the cavalry
should cross the border with a view of
ansiting in quieting the trouble except
on explicit order from Washington.
According to a despatch the officials
state tonight there no fresh develop
ment from a military stand point.
SITUATION AGAIN NORMAL.
BISDEE, Arl June 3.The situation
at U Csnauea Is again normal, The
American volunteers who went serosa
the line at Naeo with Governor Ysabel
at Sonora, Saturday returned to Bisbee
this morning. Their services were no
longer needed. The town is now undsr
martial law and Colonel Kosterlisky of
the Mexican Rurales is disarming the
Americans and Mexicans alike. A con
scervative estimate of the number killed
