' President A. II. Pevers of the irrl
gat Ion aasoclatlon said this morning
. that the convention Junt cloned at l'en-
dleton had done much to unite senti
wient as to the best course for irrlga
: ' tlon men to purauo In securing their
desires. The entire tnte situation wi
r discussed from every aspect and though
i no definite notion wi resoivea on. o
' In to peculiar state conditions, mat
t.ra were no shaped that when oppor
, . tunlty does rome the Irrigation workers
". will understand Just what to do.
. Th hlf thlnir limuaht out In the
convention, according to Mr. Ievers,
waa the general feelina that the Federal
Uwa on Irrlaatlon were at -variance
with the state laws, and that no projecta
', could bo Inaugurated until the state
.' lawa were consistent and plainly In lino
' "with Federal action.
Two of the commission appointed by
" 1 the governor were present and llstenea
v' to the atatementa maae oy Irrigation
'.men of the mate. Thia commission will
. report to th next leglalature what
'change ahould be made la eiate Irriga
tion lawa. T. J. Halley of Pendleton
and C W. Mallett of Ontario were the
member of the commission preaent
' One of the pleaaanteat features of the
convention was the reception given the
governor and the delegate by the wo-
' men of Pendleton. Prealdent Pavers
" said that he expressed me sentiment
' rf the entire convention when be called
the receutlon ono of the most satU'
. factory ever attended, and one that
greatly aided , the success of the entire
meeting.
The next convention will be held at
Ontario, Or. -The date will be set later
by the executive committee.
i The convention recommended that the
. desert land act, the timber and atone
' acta and the commutation of the home
stead entry act be repealed, and will
forward such a recommendation to the
atate representatives In congress.
TWO HOLD UP
; FOURTEEN HEN
Senator Hansbrough, chairman of the
committee of publlo lands. Introduced a
bill which la Intended to repeal the tim
ber and atone act and to cur defecta ir
the existing law. . .
Under the law aa It now stands, land
In ncq utrod at 12.50 per acre regardless
of Its value. If the new bill is passed
all timber land on the publlo domain
will be withdrawn from entry and the
government will dispose of the timber
at Its market value, reserving the land.
One provision of the bill prohibits the
entry of these lands under the home
stead or old land laws.
The lieu land section la amended Ir
the second section of the bill ,so aa to
provide that when a settler whose entry
falls 'within a forest reserve and selects
another piece of lend In lieu of the
original entry, It must be more valuable
for agricultural purposes than for tim
ber or stone. Under the present law en
trymen who find themselves within a
foreet reserve proceed to cut all the
timber and then rile a homestead ou an
other timber reserve.
Ooes Still rartber. -
The proposed bill goes further and
provides that the act of March 11, 1(01,
be amended so that all proofs of com
muted homestead and desert land entries
must be made before registers and re
ceivers In local land offices. The com-.

business and feared to do so, or experts
who thought discretion the better part
' of valor. Most of the Italian laborers
In the place are employes of the City
t Suburban railway and were. paid off
; . Tuesday. All of the loungers had more
or leas money on- their persons and the
highwaymen would have secured several
hundred dollars had they searched the
pockets of the party. The safe, which
is situated in the front office, also con
. ' talned a considerable sum, but the rob
bers made no attempt to tamper with it.
Nicholas 'Casclato says that he at
, first thought the affair waa a, joke, but
when he saw that business was meant he
'. told the "boys" that their hands had
'better go up.' He, had about 1126 In his
jj pockets, which- waa. hot touched. Cas-
ciaio says mat ne ooea not care lor me
Ions of the money from the register, but
. he la glad that no one was Killed or In
. jured. But had he been compelled tq
i.upen in. aai3. lie .ajrv, ue wuuiu uavc
. attempted to capture the bandit, He be
kIleves that the robber were afraid of
being captured bad they delayed. It is
. the general opinion among the witnesses
of the holdup that a third man stood
v guard on the outside although none saw
him. It Is also thought that the hold
. ups knew It was an opportune time for
the crime.
... The only American In the crowd was
J. McKew, who Uvea at Fifth and Sher
idan streets. He was sitting at one of
- the tables interested in the card game.
He gives a clear account of the affair.
' "The first I knew I heard the com
mand of "hands up." I thought it was
t a Josh put up by tome of the proprie
tor's Italian friends. But I soon saw
that they meant business and my hands
went Into the air aa did those of the
others. We stood still while the slim
fellow, who took a crouching position,
held the gun on us. The heavy set man
also crouched over as fie stood behind
the bar and nervously glanced Into the
mirror to see toat no one made a move
, towards him. They made us all get up
r and noia our hands up before he went
to. the reglater. No one In the crowd
had a revolver ,and we could make no
resistance.
These present In the saloon besides
the two proprietors and McKew were:
Candldo Diyulils, Kvangellst Dlyullls,
Oluseppa Rag-none, Camlllo Tarantinl,
Domenlco Tarantinl, Florintl Salvalore,
, Vlncenxo Dellacroce, Giovanno Dantonlo,
Bruno Santoro and two other men un
known. This Is the first saloon holdup in
Portland In month and to all ap
pearances was the work of a new gang
i of crooks. It is possible that there are
the men who terrorised San Francisco,
several weeks ago.
Angered that one of their number
should be confined In the dungeon, IS
county prisoners went on s.rlkc this
morning and refused to ociVMrpnny th
guards to the rockplle. As so?n as the
men had announced their ultimatum they
also were ordered Into the dark cell,
where they will be conlnod until they
signify their wIlliT.gnes to return to
work.
Thomas Stevens, Jr., Is the cnuse of
the mutiny among the men, according
to the statements of the ruorls. He
was Insubordinate, they declare, nnd waa
ordered to the dungeon for five days.
But Stevens occupied a warm place In
the hearts of his fellow-prisoners, who
decided to strike until he waa released.
A similar strike was Inaugurated by
the prisoners several days ago, when
the notorious "Chick" Houghton was put
In t. a .4 1 a. (.Ann Th rfaminilail ht
njjpmended this amendment In his annual release under penalty of refusal to work,
. i. mini -" i ana ins aemana waa aompiiea wun.
The officer will take a determined
stand thla time, and declare .that Stevens
must stay In the dungeoa five days. The
men. however, will be given an oppor
tunity to go on the rockplle tomorrow
morning.
Stevens, who Is little more than a boy,
has enjoyed an exciting life since he was
committed by the police court a few daya
ago on a petty charge.
November 1 he waa being taken to- the
rockplle for the first time, when he made
his escape aa the guards were loading
the prrsonere Into the special car.
Two days later he waa arrested while!
drinking soda-water In a confectionery
stand, and November 4 waa again started
for the rockplle.
Instead of working with the other men,
ha became unruly and waa made to carry
a ball affd chain. This ne nattered to
pieces with his sledge and then threw
stones at the guards. , v
Monday night It waa decided td place
him In the dungeon. The men at once
demanded his release and today refused
to work until It was forthcoming.
when he said:
gained by the act have been greatly
abused, particularly by United States
commissioners, who' have often been
parties to wholesale frauds In connection
with proofs made before them."
TJrred Xernuvan's Appointment.
Senators Mitchell and Fulton last
night called upon Speaker Cannon and
urged the appointment of Representa
tive Hermann to a place on the rivers
and harbors committee, and Williamson
to a place on the Irrigation committee.
Speaker Cannon said the requests would
be given due consideration. He will not
take up the work of committee assign
ments until later In the session.
Senator Mitchell Is arranging to give
banquet during the preaent month to
the aenators and representatives In con
gress from the Pacific Const and the Pa
cific Northwest. The primary object of
the banquet will be the discussion of the
Lewis and Clark exposition and other
measures of benefit to all coast states.

If the legislature Is to be convened,
It is highly important that this should

Captain Crowe of the ahlpllnlng firm
of Anderson & Crowe, received a letter
this morning from Captain Howes, mas
ter of the British ship Arranmore. Tho
letter is dated Port Elisabeth, South
Africa, the veasel arriving there on Oc
tober 12, after a passage of 105 daya
from Portland. Among other things,
the captain states that one of his crew
committed suicide by jumping overboard
when the ahlp had een to -sea only
about two weeks. He says mat me
other members of the crew were ill
during almost the entire voyage, ana
accordingly the trip was rraugni wun

Ua Moines. Nov. 11. A three daya'
celebratlon of the opening of Fort Des
Moines was ushered In today. For many
years the capital city of Iowa has Deeni
the location oi
subjection, Tbore Is nothing so unstable
aa public sentiment, except It be news
paper comments upon nautical matter.
Suppose a crew mutinies on the high
seas, and the master And officers of the
ship "use corporeal suasion to bring them
into discipline, The newspapers and
courts take up the cry of the brutality
ot .me oRicers of the mercantile marine.
The poor beggars are arrested, mulct In
heavy damages out' of hard-earned
money and possibly given a term In
state's prison.
Then again, let the opposite-be the
caae. The cry goes forth that thers
appears to have been a lack of disci
pllne, which will cause heavy expenses
to tne owners and underwriters. .
The whole thing reminds one of an old
fable of a man. bis son and an ass. Tha
first person reprimands the father for
riding while his young son has to walk.
A second reprimands the son for riding
wnue his old father has to walk, and
third suggests the man Is better able
to carry the ass. Hence, out fabled
man concludes, as he Is not able to
please all ths world, he will please him
self. Thers Is no one but a seamon
who Is capable of Judging the merits
of a nautical case, and even then one
may make a mistake. One cannot be
too careful, therefore. In censuring the
conduct of a shipmaster upon duty on
the high seas. Such censure may be
unjust, and do the man rreat Inlurv. In
me present case, "tne Dunslaw'I con

latlon. An Interesting program oi res
tlvltles is being carried out. Including
football gamea, an automobile parade
and receptions, balls and other social

C, B. Watson of Ashland wrote to the
governor, commending his sctlon In
issuing his circular letter to tho mem
bers and expressing the hope that no
legislation , would be attempted except
that required to provide revenue for
next year.
J. N. Teal of Portland urges the
special session. He calls attention to
the deplorable condition in which Port

themselves If revenue were not pro
vided promptly.
The Portland Taxpayers' league also
urges action, sending resolutions.
adopted by unanimous vote of the league,
urging the calling of the special session.
State Senator Squire Farrar of
Marion county is the first one address
ing the governor Who expresses himself
aa being opposed to the special session.
Mr. Farrar says that he is ready to
support any meritorious legislation that
may be presented at a special session.
Several bills, passed by the legisla
ture, were placed in the hands of the
governor during the last few days of
the session and vetoed within five days
after the close of the session. These
bills with the vetoes will be nresented
to the legislature at the special session,
If one is called, for action. The con
stitution, article S, section 16, provides
that the secretary of state "shall lay
the same (vetoed bills) before the legis
lative assembly at its next session in
like manner as if It had been returned
by the governor."
Regarding- special elections to fill
vacancies It Is being urged that such
move Is unnecessary, as there are but
few vacancies, and it has . been sug
gested that the governor correspond
with the county Judges and chairmen
of the county central committees, ask
ing them whether or not they prefer
special elections to being unrepresented
at the special session, If one is called.
