YESTERDAY
STORY OF THE LADY MARIE
S. S. ILFORD IN FROM GUAY
. MAS ELDER DEPARTS FOR
SOUTH-STATE SAILS TODAY
Here is a specimen of spectacular
reporting from the marine columns
of the Portland Oregonian of yester
day: "The gasoline launch Lady Marie,
which was sent from Seattle to Port
land by rail and was to have been
taken down the coast from Astoria
to Yaquina Bay, is missing. She has
failed to arrive at the coast port and
her owner, Mr. Morrison, is greatly
worried over the safety of the craft.
"The Lady Marie was shipped from
the Sound City about three weeks
1 ago. The man in charge was not a
sailor but he had taken the contract
tti deliver the launch at Yaquina. The
boat was launched at Portland and
the voyage to Astoria was made with
out incident. The operator attempted
to' follow a steamer out over the bar
but got scared and returned to As
toria. Later he agreed to take the
launch down the coast. He left As
toria and since that time there has
been nothing heard from either the
operator or the launch. Captain Geo.
Tyler, master of the gasoline sloop
Condor, has been commissioned to
make a search for the missing boat
and to convoy her to Yaquina."
-The Lady Marie was not brought
to Portland from Seattle by rail; she
is not missing; she was sailed around
here successfully and is lying at the
upper end of the O. R. & N. pier,
sound as a dollar, and has been there
for a week or more. She has not
been in Portland that anyone here
knows of. Captain Tom Latham,
who has just arrived here with the
Barnes launch Helen Payne, from
Lake Bay, Alaska (on a voyage of
1192 miles), will leave out this morn
ing with the Lady Marie at 4 o'clock
and if she h6lds together he will land
her here at Yaquina in good shape.
She is a fine launch and can go any
where in the hands of a real mariner.
'
The British steamship Ilford has
crossed in, from Guaymas, Mexico,
with all well on board. She reported
two Chinese stowaways on board,
and there will be held on the craft
for return to their native land. Cap-;
tain Hemberry has reported the mat
ter to the immigration authorities
here and is under orders to hold them
securely until they are landed in the
first Chinese port he reaches. The
Ilford will take the Sark's berth at
the Hammand docks this afternoon.
She will take the first lumber cargo
on record for this port to Copen
hagen, Denmark. .
The fine lighthouse tender Armeria,
Captain William Gregory, which has
been undergoing extensive overhaul
ing at Seattle, is due in home waters
at. any hour now. She will take on
h heavey line of supplies here, for
Nome and contiguous Alaskan ports.
She will be absent in the north for a
month or more.

, Ed. Lowe yesterday launched his
cracker-jack duck boat the "Peggie
and she swung her 16-feet over the
bay at a 9-mile clip with ease. She is
built on good lines and nothing is lost
in curves nor hollows; she is sheer-
built and her little motor runs like a
watch.
The steamship Geo. W. Elder got
away from the Callender pier at 5:30
o'clock yestreday morning, with sev
eral passengers, .and 100 barrels of
fish oil. Among those departing on

ing to the Columbia River Packers'
Association, which has been through

made port yesterday on their respec
tive schedules in spite of the Landis
like of $5 each paid into the municipal
court of Portland by way of punish
ment for river racing.
The British ship Ancois went back
to Portland yesterday noon on the
hawsers of the Harvest Queen. The
Queen came down with a full line of
freight which she discharged here
and at Megler.
The tug Geo. R. Vosburg got away
for the Nehalem at dawn yesterday
morning with the Du Bois-Wheeler
party of 10 on board. She had a
barge in tow.

day, en route to Australia, with her
million feet of good Oregon lumber.

TO GIVE AID
'EFFORTS WILL BE SOON MADE
TO ACTIVELY INTEREST
THEM IN THE ELECTRIC
RAILWAY PROJECT.
That the city of Tillamook does
not seem to display the interest that
it should in the projected Astoria,
Seaside & Tillamook Electric Rail
way Company has recently been the
source of considerable comment
among some of the leading business
,men of this city. But the reason for
this fact may not be difficult of as
certainment, it is pointed out by
others. ,
"For years Tillamook has thought
and dreamed of little but railroads,"
said one Astorian yesterday who is
thoroughly familiar with conditions
in the county south of Clatsop, "and
they have been fooled so often that
naturally enugh it is hard for them
to have faith in a new railway pro
ject. That is probably the reason
why so little attention is being paid
to. the present plan. Nevertheless
the business men of Astoria who are
behind the projected electric line are
going to make an effort -to interest
the Tillamook men. With that end
in view it is probable that some of
the local men will make a trip to
Tillamook soon, and put the matter
before business men there. It will be
pointed out that Astoria has raised
$10,000 which is being used for the
preliminary work, and that if the
present plans are carried out in the
manner that is now promised, the
work of actual construction of the
line to Seaside will be commenced
within a couple of months.
Practically every man interested in
the line is willing to stake his money
as wll as his business judgment on
the success of the line. That it will
be built within a reasonably short
time is simply taken as an assuredlthat all freight and patronage be
fact. All the money required to com
plete all of the preliminary work be
tween this city and Cannon Beach
has already been raised, and is being
expended in the surveys and other
like work. Of course the real crux
of the whole enterprise is to finance
it. The promotor of the project, Mr.
Evans, states that he stands prepared
to secure all the money required.
Those who are in his confidence have '
ample reason to believe that his plans
will carry through with no hitch; but
even in the event that something un
toward should arise so that Mr. Ev
ans' plans go astray, it should not
be forgotten that the Chamber of
Commerce still holds an absolutely
reliable offer to take half of the
bonds of the company the moment
they are put on the market.
"Tillamook will never have a better
chance to aid in the opening of aj
railway than right now," said one of j
the men back of the enterprise yes
terday. "Our line will go through, j
All that we ask, of Tillamook is that j
fliA Kiictfiacc iMon tliad rilca v. n air i
. , . ,. . 3
enough for the preliminary surveys!
, . t, . . , i
between Cannon Beach and Tilla-;
mook, as we have done for the
work from this city to Cannon Beach.
They can procure the rights of way
better than we can. Then, the mo
ment that all the preliminary work is
done, two propositions will be made
to the Tillamook men by Mr. E.vans.
First, that he will pay them in cash
for every dollar they have laid out,
or will give them the value in stock i
in the new road.".
Mr. Evans said last evening that
such is the plan that will be proposed
to the Tillamook men. "Only," he
said, "I would prefer that they ac
cept cash instead of stock in the new
company." The real desire is to in
terest the men of that county to the
end that the surveys may be made
and the rights of way secured with
the least resistance possible. Natur
ally, local men can aid best in that
work.
Mr. Evans, promotor of the new
line, said yesterday that the survey
force is now within six or seven
miles of Seaside. They will.be there
some time next week. It has been
decided that the line will run through
the cemetery along the section line,
running between the Potter's field
and the main part of the burial
ground.
"We will run a loop northward
from there, also," said Mr. Evans, "so
as to tap all of the rich country that
lies to the north The loop will go
north to Flavel, and will also touch
on the grounds of the military reser-
vaion. Un this loop will be operated
two or three loop cars, to connect
with the cars of the main line.

ASTORIA EAGLES GO ON REC
ORD IN REBUKING THE A.
& C, AND N. P. RAILWAYS
FOR REFUSING THEM RATES
There was n big and interesting
session of the Astoria Eagles at the
Aerie hall, last eveni.ig, when many
matters of peculiar moment were
thoroughly discussed and disposed,
not the least of which wa the
adoption of the following pointed
and practical resolution, which is en
tirely self-explanatory:
"Resolutloa"
"Whereas, The Grand Aerie of
the Fraternal Order of Eagles will
meet in Seattle on August 11, 1908,
and will be attended by fully 50,000
members from various cities in the
United States; and . .
"Whereas, Every transportation
company in the United states nave
given reduced rates to members de
siring to attend, except the Northern
Pacific and Astoria & Columbia Riv
er Railroad, who positively refuse to
grant any reduced rates from As
toria, but offer to do so from Port
land, and
"Whereas, We consider this an
adjust discrimination against As
toria Aerie, No. 17, F. O. E., and
against the City of Astoria ,who
spend hotusands of dollars every
year with said railroad company, now
therefore be it
"Resolved, That Astoria Aerie
No. 17, F. O. E., comprising 300
members, many of whom are mer
chants, denounce the Northern Pa
cific and Astoria & Columbia River
Railroad officials for their unjust and
unfair discrimination against Astoria,
"Resolved, That we withdraw all
patronage from the Astoria & Colum
bia River Railroad and Northern Pa-;
cific Railroad Company, relative
to
shipping freight over said lines, and
given to the steamer Spencer or any
other river steamer, and that Port
land, and that Portland and other
wholesale merchants be notified that
we will not accept any goods ship
ped over cither of said roads.
"Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be sent to Mr. Adams of
the A. & C. Railroad Company and
the same be published in the news-
papers of Astoria."

Georgia Populist Gets After the
Peerless One
BUT HAS PRAISE FOR TAFT
Let The South Become Politically
Uncertain, Says Watson, And She
Will Again Become Politically
Great Hit Great Purpose In Life.
MACON, Ga., July 24,-Thomas E.
Watson, Populist candidate for Pres
ident opened his campaign here in a
speech oi one hour to an audience
that taxed the capacity of the Crand
opera house. He asked for Geor
gia s electoral votes and said, it nec
essary ,he would give them to Bryan
to defeat Taft. His assaults were all
directed at Bryan, however, and his
'praises were for Roosevelt and Taft.
His charge against Bryan of refus
ing to vote for Crisp for Speaker in
the Democratic caucus because of his
being a Confederate was heard in si
lence but his attack on the Nebras
kan for his attitude in giving the ne
groes comfort in the Brownsville
matter was repeatedly applauded. Mr.
Watson spoke as follows;
The greatest purpose of my life
now is to put the South back into the
position of National influence which
she held before the Civil war and to
bring back the reign of Democratic
principles as they were practiced in
the 40s and 50s. The greatest obsta-

You are asked to vote for Mr. Bry

'fill surrender of principle. In 1896
jMr. Bryan claimed to-be as good q
J Populist as Watson. For eight years
he wore every shred of clothing
.which Populism had in its wardrobe.
, In 1904 he abandoned his Populist
raiment and entered zealously into the
Parker campaign, which he himself
had denounced as ,a sell-out to the
Wall-street clement of the Democra
tic party. Whatever he wanted done
was done. Whatever he wanted

lhe Southern States as a purely neg-
