Should the matter be left to tlum today he would ba elucted'on the first ballot by an overwhelming major lty. They would support blm regard- leas of all former political affiliation, not because they think he la th most capable man that could be elected to the position, but for th simple reason that they think th Maya law ought to be upheld. . .

At the June election the people spok very . plainly as to who they desired to repreaent them In the upper houae at Washington. His name was placed on the official ballots just in order to feel the public pulse on the proposition. It was a step toward the election of United States Senators by a popular vote of the people. But ap parently the Legislature pay no atten tion to it Tha only conclusion that can be Inferred from the member' action Is that they are tlll In favor of the old yatem of deadlocks and corruption. They do not repreaent their constitu ent, or they would vote differently. They should be rechrlstened aa mlarep- resentatlves of the people, Th Peopl Xlgbt. Remarks. of tbla kind ar Uttered .oon- atantly by union men of all ahade of political comDlexlon. Among them are Democrats, Populists, Socialists and Re publicans, to say nothing of those who lohg ago cast their lot with the lnde- tiendent suffragists. Oeer Is tbelr choice and hla praises are aounded by them ev erywhere. Hla Qualifications for the of fice do not enter Into the dlsousslons, and If this subject Is incidentally broached it 1 waved aside aa unworthy of notice. They feel that tha will of the people as expressed at the last elec tion should be taken Into consideration, ' hence he Is the only man that ia deserv ing of the high honor that now Ilea with in the rift of the Oregon legislature. fhe union labor men and working ' classes generally are firm in their con viction that whatever th great mas o'f people say on matters of thl kind It must be right, and thla la th reason that they are hoping for Qeers success.

ASK THAT HE BE PARDONED Petition Signed for Lockington's - Release From Pen. The Longshoremen's Union, No. 265, is circulating a petition addressed to Governor Chamberlain asking for the pardon of William Locklngton, who was found guilty of assault last . October and sentenced to the penitentiary for one year, jockington is a member of the ..union and prior to the trouble he got Into always bore a good character. The petition is being largely signed by his former associates and by many in fluential citizens. . It reads as follows: rtWe, the undersigned residents and in habitants or Multnomah County, Oregon, being personally acquainted, with Wil liam Locklngton, wno was sentenced by the Circuit Court of Multnomah County, Or., on October z, iuz, to a term of one year in the penitentiary of the State of Oregon, for the crime of asasult with a dangerous weapon, and knowing him 'to be a man of steady, sober and industri ous habits and believing him to be a man of goW'characta. devoid of crim inal instincts;, and furthermore believing that the ehdalof Justice, the, welfare of Locklngton, ' his wife and two children and society in general will be conserved and promoted thereby, do most respect fully petition you to grant a full pardon and reprieve to th said Wiljlam Lock lngton." - , , , ' , Robert Patterson, proprietor of ' th Favorit saloon in the North End, who was sentenced to serve three months in the county jail yeaterday, may have an other charge placed against him. City Attorney FiUgerald stated to The Jour nal this morning that he proposed to ascertain whether or. net Patterson is guilty of selling liquor without a li cense. I have called the. attention of. City License Inspector McEachern ld the statements of. certain witnesses in the trial of Patterson in th - Municipal Court tha other day. in which It wa said that beer had been sold in the Favorite saloon. If sufficient evidence can be obtained, I will place a charge of selling liquor without a license against Patterson. I wilt not allow him to continue to do so, If h ba been doing so in the past It is a pretty hard charge to make clear in a court, however," said Fitz gerald.. "and I want some good, -clear evi dence before I take action- in court I want evidence from some reputable per son, who can go on the stand and make clear statements, and .swear that liquor was sold in the saloon. - Then ther is a good case, and something can be done. Bote! Bunaer. - ' "I intend to take some action relative to the hotel runners at the depot too,1 said Fitzgerald. 'There. 1 trouble at th depot too often, and people are fre quently insulted. This thing must stop. It is enough to make a person crasy to pass by that crowd or notei runners ana hack drivers. I may attempt to get a new ordinance passed by the City Coun ell, regulating them in some manner, go as to relieve the public". Descriptions Difficult to Obtain and . Identification Is Next to the Impossible. HEARING OF INJUNCTION SUIT Wa. ms and Kerr Bros Pray for an Injunction . -. The suit of Wadhams ft Kerr Bros. against Allen & Lewis in th matter of an injunction to prevent the defendants from using' a certain label was heard thla morning by Judges Sears, Cleland and Fraser. H. M. Cake, for the plaintiffs, stated that the case rested upon the use of a label by Allen & Lewis, which so closely resembled the "Monopola" wrapper- of Wadhams & Kerr Bros., that the latter were seriously damaged. It was further alleged tbat the offend ing label was put on a stock of goods inferior in quality 40 that under the "Monopole' wrapper ofSthe . plaintiffs, and that in Instances it bad been sold to the public as' "Monopole." " nt'-iJ '; "When this laDers resemblance t tn Monopole" wrapper was called to : th ' attention of Mr. Sp.enoer, manager, for Allen & Lewis." said Judge Cake, "the latter agreid to discontinue Its use.? This was denied by the defendants, who claimed that Mr. Spencer's words were not in the nature of an agreement and -did not-admlt -that Allenr & Lewis had no right to use tba label. Attorney Wirt Minor wa for th de-. fendants; and claimed that ther was no Infringement ot the plaintiffs' rights, ana uui iney were not entiuea to aam age. Tba case is still in progress. The hardest criminal to catch la a highwayman." a Portland city detective said it to The Journal, and from recent events in this city, it would seem that ba knew whereof he spoke. "Yes, sir; a man who knows his bus iness, and is plying the vocation of a highwayman, is the hardest sort of crook the detectives have to deal with, continued the sleuth. "A clever high wayman, lino the two who axe now op erating in Portland, never leave a clue lor th officers H meets bis victim. sticks' him up, takes nothing but coin and hurries away in the darkness. No time Is given for identification, and If there were, most citizens naturally be come so frustrated, and think nothing of suing up the criminal before he gets away. Thus, when a hold-up is re ported to us, nine times out of ten no description can be obtained. This places us at a decided disadvantage at the out set." - "Why is It these men can stay here so long, and not be arrested?" wa asked. Identification Difficult There's nothing to identify them." was the reply. "These men: are clever, careful ' criminals. They are the kind who make It a point not to leave any due behind them. They take nothing but money, and if they were caught ten minutes after they held tip a man, what would there be to Identify them T They always wear mask while turning a trick, and of course throw them away as soon as they ar done. Lots of men carry . weapons, and so you see these highwaymen have -the best of It There' hardly any way to cinch them." Do many highwaymen work together in Portland?" was asked. No; I have never known a time when there was more than two or three. The city Is too small, and it's dangerous work. Tou will see when we get those men, if we ever do, that the town will be quiet for a while. That will prove that the city is not run or such people.- "Now. you take housebreakers, petty thieves and that class of criminals, and there's something to work on. If they rob a house, they take something that will identify them, if caught If they attempt to sell stolen goods, we have. them. So you see that is comparatively easv. : We never have a great deal of trouble landing burglars, and that kind of men. They all have a manner , of working, , from- which tney seldom, if ever, vary.; They rob all houses in the same way, attempt to sell their plun der in the same manner each time, and thus we come to know each thief by his manner of work. ' "But a highwayman veil, there's no pse talking, ne s me naraesi criminal that we have to cope with." , ARCHIE HARROW BETTER ; Little Archie Harron, Who was so se verely crushed lb an elevator at Meier & Frank's yesterday, is new at the Good Samaritan Hospital. . , He la reported to be resting easily ana la In a fair wa to get.welL' ..:-.,-'., .: V ,.For Your Stomach's Sake..
