Perplexing Problem in
State Politics
Seattle Wants a Senator and Says
Harold Pteston Is It
Lobby $Iove.
Washington' senatorial fight Is as
suming a proportion that" is fktrenuous If
Hot jlorplexlng. Joe Smith, a traveling
correspondent for the Seattle Daily
TimeS, who is wU versed in his state's
political mix-up, and who is out in the
interest of Harold Preston's cajididacy,
when Interviewed at the Hotel Portland
last night said:
The senatorial fight in Washington
now hinges upon the power of the rail
road lobby to control the State Legis
lature. For this reason it seems inevit-
able that the election of a Senator will
be combined with the issue 01 legislative
railroad legislation. If the railroads can
Dontrol the Legislature, then the com
mission bill will be defeated, and, Levi
Ankeny of Walfa Walla will be elected
Senator. If they are unable to control
then the commission bill will pass, and
Harold Preston will be elected to the
Senate.
"It now seems extremely probable. Ju
fact almost certain, that the com
bination between Preston and the com
mission forces will be made, and that it
will be successful in both issues. The
advocates of the commission have a clear
majority in the lower house, but in the
Senate the commission bin cannot puss
unless It receives the votes of three or
four of the seven Republican Senators
from King County. All of these seven
men are very earnest Preston men and
four or five 'of them are undecided on
the commission question. Several of
them will be willing to vote for the coin
mission In order to secure flie election
if Mr. Preston. The commission ad-
ocates outsldt of King County, on the
ttther hand, are largely favorable to
Preston, and moist of those who would
not otherwise vote for him would do so
In order to secure the passage of the
commission bill. The existence of these
conditions is the undation for the ex
pectation that the two ngnts will be com
bined and both be successful.
THE COMBINATION OF IT.
"On a combination of the commission
fight with the Preston fight, the support
ers of Preston and the commission are
able to show from 60 to 6 votes for
Preston In the Republican caucus, 23 or
24 votes for the commission bill In the
Senate, and a safe majority in the House.
Fifty-nine votes is a majority of the
Republican joint caucys and 23 a major
ity of the Senate. This counts the votes
Of the Democratic members favorable to
the commission, as voting on that issue,
but as -voting for a Democratic candl
date for Senator.
The feature of the fight nt the present
time is the strenuous activity of the
railroad lobby, both in opposition to the
commission and in favor of Mr. Ankeny,
A LOBBY MOVE.
'Th9 lobby Is commanded by George
Jtevenson of Tncoma. the attorney for
the O. R. & N. Company, anil J. L. Far
rell .of Seattle, president of the Pacific
Coast Company, a man close in the con
Udence of J. J. Hill. The methods of
these two men are widely different, bit
both are liard workers and intrepid fight
ers. Stevenson is old in politics and his
tiame and methods are intensely offensive
in th people who oppose him. Mr. Far
fell Is new In politics, is a man of a
high sense of political honor, and in sym
pathy with Mr. Hill is opposed to the
use of money for questionable or corrupt
purposes. Until recently B. 8. Grosscup
of Tacoma, the attorney for the Northern
Pacific, was also a large factor in the
light, but he has recently been called
off by President Mellen of that road and
instructed to attend to the law business
f the company and let polities alone.
"If the commission bill is passed the
:redlt for its passage will be due In a
large measure to the fearless and in
trepid fight put up by Gov. McBrlde.
Since succeeding to the governorship
McBrlde has Invaded some of tho tradi
tions of the office by taking his coat oft
and entering the railroad fight in a prac
tical way. He has attended conventions,
and Caucuses, in person; he made an al-
most ensat4onal campaign- ton r wftrm-
state, and has marshaled his forces with
master "hand. -By his admirers he hits
'been called "the man with the iron
boots." The lobby is beginning to find
out that when he fights, which is all of
the time, he fights for results and not
for appearances." ,
Mr. Smith spent a portion of yester
day In Clarke County and left last even
ing for Spokane.

WARN OFFENDERS
TO BE CAREFUL
California Grand Jury Condemns
Impure Milk-Sensible Report.
The city officials should not lose sicht
of the necessity of enforcing the pure
food laws. The recent agitation by The
Journal caused a movement toward a
betterment of conditions, esiwclally those
applying to tho inllk supply. Soma of
the state food inspectors announced that
milk was not necessarily Canfjerou wli.-n
infected with germs of consumption,
which, of course, was known to bo a
ridiculous argument.

Francisco' that official body Inserted the
following statements, wrilch will be of
value to those of the state food inspec
tion bureau, who were inclined to atono
for tho offenses of unscrupulous dairy
men: "Of all the articles of food, milk should
be pure from tho fact that It is so gen
erally used, not only by the healthy s;nd
strong, but also by delicate infant.-,
many of whom subsist upon it. We found
it necessary to pay considerable attention
to thetnatter of the milk sold to the peo
ple of the city and county of San Fran
cisco, and we take" pleasure in reporting
that tho provisions of the ordinances gov
erning the matter are now being vigor
ously enforced, and all milk found to be
adulterated Is immediately destroyed, and

Two More Carloads Have Been
Ordered From the

The first car load of Journal premium
dinner sets had barely reached Portland
bfore the demand exceeded the supply.
With the appearance of The Journal
announcing the arrival of the beautiful
chinaware there was "a rush on The
Journal office." old and new subscribers
appearing in throngs to participate in
the distribution, as per the terms of
Tho Journal offer. In every instance,
where delivery has ben made, entire
satisfaction was expressed and acknowl
edgment made that the dishes more
than met every expectation. This is
gratifying to The Journal management,
as well as to Journal subscribers, and
the good work will go on, until "The
Journal newspaper as well as a Journal
premium dinner set are in nearly every
home in Portland and "Where rolls the
Oregon."
The Journal's circulation Is growing
so rapidly that the old plant will have
to make way for the new. th latter In
cluding the new $25, 000 Hoe perfecting

be turning nut Journals by the thousands

One thing The Journal management
haB discovered, the treat body of the
plain people of Oregon are in sympathy

to it in no half-hearted way.. It 1b the
encouragement i;ml enthusiasm of this
support that spurs The Journal manage

WHOLESALERS
BUYING SUGAR
Recent Advances Liven Up the
Market Considerably.
That a majority of the local JSTbers
believe that sugar quotations will surely
advance is shown by the extra heavy re
ceipts that are coming to this city.
Before the recent advances the sugar
market was rather dull and very little
buying was done. Now It Is different, and
retailers are crowding each other in an
effort to get their orders in first.
Of late the San Francisco steamers ar
riving In this port have brought large

SO FEARFUL
HER ABUSE
Anna Gebhardt Suffered Great
Cruelty.
The eight, of -one-eye destroyed by
alleged abuse at the hands of her father,
Anna Gebhardt reappeared before Judge
Sears' yesterday: Ke ' Is pTaltmfr with
her Bister. Louisa Schwarti, against her
father, Martin Oebhardt, for the recov
ery of $1,715 left In a will from grand
parents in Germany two years ago.
The story briefly told, is that Geb
hardt hud two children by his ilrst wife.
When she died the little ones were taken
by their grandparents and supported un
til Gebhardt found that a will had been
executed, leaving tl,'75 to each of them.
Then under German law. the father. In
his prerogative, can claim three-fourths
of the estate. Gebhardt brought the two
girls to America. He secured a ranch
In Washington, and there began to
abuse them. The eldest one married In
this city. Soon after the father married.
It wn then that the cruelty to little
Anna began. Bhe ws made to saw all
the wood, and It was brought out In the
testimony that black eyes and bruised
features were common occurrences with
the child.
So fearful did her existence become
that her father had her sent to the re
form - EC-two at- -GJelaHir Wash. -ThJ
child had no support. Bhe could succor
no aid in her defense, although of pure
character. She lived at the reform in
stitution four years, and It was not
uutil her sister was able to prove that
the father was only trying to obtain
the little estate, that Anna was released.
One reason why The Journal has
rapidly gained circulation la that It Is
the only paper In Portland that dares
to print the news.
