Mr. Ferguson of Iowa asked the privi
lege of Baying a few words. He remind
ed the convention that Jim Hill had seen
fit to denominate the proposed Panama
canal as a ditch for the passage of ba
nanas, or something of that sort. Not
withstanding this most awful condem
nation by the Great, Northern magnate,
Mr, Ferguson hoped that he would yet
Bee the time when he could come to the
great West again via that same banana
ditch, and not have to depend, as at
present, on a return railroad ticket read
ing via the Northern Pacific.
Hon; I. N. Flelschner, as chairman of
the press and publicity committee of the

products of the western range, In order

which was done. - - -
This closed the business of the con

Springer's Pleasant Surprise.
Colonel Wilson Of Texas came forward
and laid an object on the table. Turn
ing toward ex-President Springer, be
said: "' "
"Allow me to present you with this
slight token of our affection. It takes a
man of rare ability to handle more than
a thousand people of these Western
states and out of this motley group get
results. Now you are about to leave
us since you have educated us up to a
point where we can rely on our own
efforts." Unwrapping the object on tho
table. Colonel Wilson drew forth ' a
handsome loving cup of silver, which
he handed over to Mr. Springer, and con
tinued: "You have a share in the kindly
feelings of the ranchmen all over the
country. We trust to meet you at our
coming conventions. We cherish a high
regard for you and yours."
Mastering his emotions, Mr. Springer
replied:
: ' Expresses Appreciation. .
"I appreciate more than words Can
express the Interest "" stockmen - have
taken. In this organisation, and the re
sults - accomplished - by4ta-4nenand
women. - You have always been uni
formly kind to me. ; Five years . ago
the stiver gavel I hold was presented to
me In Denver, and it shall ever remain
In the Springer family. At Salt Lake
you gave me this beautiful gold watch
1 carry, which is studded within - and
without with diamonds. Now as I step
'down and out of the president's chair
you present me with this magnificent
loving . cup. I shall take pleasure In
taking it with me. 1 cannot do any bet
ter than to quote these beautiful words:
'Be good; do noble things, not dream
them all day long, and so make llfo
and death and the vast forever one
grand, sweet song.' I thank you."
Jerry Simpson Arises.
As Mr. Springer sat down, Jerry
Simpson arose- and moved toward the
front of the stage. '--.--.,.'--'.
"I, too, have a pleasant duty to per
form In this -convention," Bald he, "In
connection with Mr, Springer's retire
ment. He is a man of magnetic touch
and power, whom to know Is but to love.
His Influence is unbounded and without
limit. Here's another token from his
humble admirers, the 'orchestra hero.
Its members desire me to present for
them this gift as a token of their es
teem." (Here Jerry held up an Immense
German stein.) "A man who has the
power to weld all sorts of people ' to
gether will bear watching. Keep your
eye on Springer. He's liable yet to be
come president of the United Statos.
No one can tell what a fellow like he
is bound to come to. .
.,' Simpson Says Things.
"In presenting this token, the or
Chestra showed great wisdom In select
ing me as their representative. There's
some mottoes on this, stein in German.
the translation of which mean: "Unity
is a firm band,' and - "Let people and
countries stand together. There Is an
unwritten law regarding these steins,
that when the cover is turned back, It Is
a sign you want more. Jn Mr. Boring
er"s case I believe it will always remain
open. . Here's some artistic pictures on
the cup. One of them clearly -shows
that there are times, when the lamb and
the ewe shall lie down together
Mr. Springer 'replied appropriately,
; Olft ' tot . Mtra. Martin,
-'Mr. lmpson then remarked: "I'm
rot tnrougn yet." jioiaing up a pack
age he said: 'This is to be presented
from the delegate to the wife of our
honored secretary. Charles Martin. The
Lord never made a better one than . he.
which la oueer. considering the raw ma
tortai he had to deal with. His success
Is due to his having so good a woman
tor a wife." ..
Here Mr. Simpson handed Mrs; Martin
the package, which was found to con
tain something over S130.
Mrs. Martin, who occupied a box near
the stage, arose and although greatly
overcome, managed finally to. say: . i
tlAnk you all very much."

And there was still more to come.
Mr. Springer again arose and addressed
the audience. ' - ' : .
"We have one more trouble here not
yet disposed of. said he,; "and Jerry is
It Th mtliRien comnrislne' the or
chestra desire to express their delight in
his flights of oratory arid ' glittering
gleams of golden wit they have heard
this week.' Then holding up two pairs
of woolen socks. Mr. : Springer con
tinued: .These are made of Oregon
wool, and hand-knitted by one or two of
the fair , women of this state. The
musicians hope you'll take 'these home
as an evidence of their appreciation, and
as a memento of the woolly West,
"We all hope when the question comes
up for the admission of New Mexico in
the senate of the United States, that
every senator will vote In favor of the
bill. We hope to see every other terrl- i
tory admitted too for there Isn't any-i
thing small about us."
Gingerly accepting the socks, the i
whilom 'sockless Simpson' replied;
Simpson's Acceptance.
"It certainly gives me great pleasure
to acknowledge . this gift. If - there's
anything I've always needed It Is socks. ;
I always was a peculiar child. I .can re
member that my dear old mother once
said that I even fame Into the world
without socks. - Many - good people in
the United States have remembered my
annual wants in this direction. I can
remember .how I used to lie awake at
night, when I was a Republican' pro
tectionist -I've reformed now and
worry leet I should wake up In the
morning and find '-. that , someone had
dumped a carload of pauper socks from

BANKS
U.
GETS APPOINTMENT
. W, W. Banks has been appointed as
sistant United States district attorney
and his commission is now on the way
from Washington. "A telegram was re
ceived early this afternoon, announcing
the appointment- .- V
r It lias" been Ttnewtr Tor gontctlme-pait
that Banks was 'to have this position.
He had the unanimous endorsement of
the Oregon delegation and was strongly
recommended by prominent members of
the bench and bar. It was expected
that he would go into office about Jan
uary 1, but for some unexplained reason
the appointment was delayed. : Jt is
said that the delay was due to the fric
tion which arose between the Oregon
senators and Attorney-General Knox
over the. latter' s selection of C. A. 8.
Frost: to aidJn prosecuting the timber
frauds in this state. Knox Is reported
to have been much Irritated over the
public criticisms of Frost by the sen
ators, regarding them as reflecting upon
himself.
While Banks had the support of the
entire delegation. Senator Fulton has
been especially Insistent In demanding
his appointment In the last senatorial
contest, Banks, who was one of the rep
resentatives from Multnomah county,
cast his vote for Fulton at the critical
moment which brought victory to the
Clatsop, candidate. Hla course was con
sistent for it was known throughout the
session that Fulton was his' choice.
It is said that Judge Carey recently
urged Mitchell and Fulton to defer the
appointment of Banks until after the
coming primaries, fearing that It would
give fresh cause of offense to the Ore
gon lan. Banks has never been forgiven
for his refusal to vote for Harvey Scott
and It was argued that his political
preferment - would be - exceedingly dis
tasteful to the editor. In spite of Scott s
emphatic declaration that he "would not
be the wheel horse to drag the Mitchell
Wagon out of the mire," Carey still en
tertained hopes that the Oregonlan might
be induced to give Its support to the
Mitchell campaign, and he . therefore
deprecated anything which would cause
fresh Irritation in that quarter. In ad
vising the -postponement of the -Banks
appointment Carey may ' have been
actuated also by friendship for Edwin
Mays, the incumbent of the office, whose
brother is Carey's partner. ,'''
At all events, the suggestion or delay
did not meet with much favor. Fulton
Insisted upon Immediate action, .'and
Mitchell Is said to have replied that he
had already done all that could be ex
pected of him to placate Harvey 8coit
and would do no more. .
W. W. Banks Is 27 years of age, and
has been a resident of Portland since
he was It. He has never held any pub
lic office except that of representative
In the state legislature, to which he was
elected June 2. 1803. He was married
nine day later, June 11. He is well
known in this city where he has been
actively engaged In the practice of law
for several years. ),...,...

CELESTIAL ROBBED
AT PISTOL'S POINT
At the point of pistols two highwaymen
compelled Sam Long, an aged Chinese
laundryman, to disgorge $26.60 of ,-. his
hard-earned wages Thursday night
The holdup has since been kept quiet,
but Detectives Day and Kelner are In
vestigating the case, and today Sam
Long visited the city jail in an effort to
identify a prisoner as one of the thieves.
The man in question was declared not
to be one of the thugs by the Chinaman.
Sam Long's laundry Is at 631 Front
street, between Sheridan - and Baker
streets. It was after 10 o'clock at night
when the Chinaman, who was still work
ing at his washing, was awakened from
his reverie by the entrance of two strang
ers. One was tall, the other short. ! The
larger man held a pistol to Sara's head
and made him understand that money
was wanted, This man had a white
handkerchief tied over his eyes as a
mask, but the shorter . wore no mask.
After a hurried search the smaller thug
found Eam'fe money box on the counter
end In It was $26.10. -
The Chinaman is very anxious to find
the pair of thugs and he states he does
not care for the lots of the money. .The
laundry ,s near 'the Front-street bridge
and It is thought that the robbers made
their escape by going below the bridge.

With the outbreak of the war he en
listed in the ranks and until -the surrender
on - the field of Appottomax never laid
down his arms. His loyalty to the cause
knew no bounds, and until the time of his
death he often spoke of the cause of confederacy.-

that "his confederate uniform was lost,
that he could not wear it on the streets
of Portland. . . . :.

family to Oregon, after a brief stay In
Arkansas. Since that time he has re

IT FEELS
TO BE DYNAMITED
' Four feet from 35 pounds of exploding
dynamite, Andrew Nicholas was not even
knocked senseless. - Lying swathed in
bandages on a cot In Good Samaritan
hospital this morning he told how it
feels to be blown up; v His. comrade,
Henry Swanson, was killed In the tame
accident Whether he will recover his
sight is a question, but on this point the
patient is hopeful and was cheered up
by his generally improved condition this
morning.
In telling today of the accident on the
Stelger farm, near Gresham, last Thurs
day, Nicholas said:
"My partner had -a. lot of powder in
the store, which was red hot The pow
der has to be thawed out some times,
but there wasn't enough hurry about it
to put It on a red hot stove. He had
the powder: in a pan. He was detach
ing the cartridge and fuse from one
of the sticks and dropped the cartridge
on the store. I was sitting about four
feet away on a bench. I saw the cart
ridge Just about to fall and I yelled at
Swanson, but It was too late. I couldn't
have prevented the . explosion anyhow,
All I had time to do was to fall off the
bench flat on the floor. ' Giant powder
explodes Upward. Then the whole
shooting match in the shack went off
thirty-five pounds. ' I was . blown up
against the side of the shack and also
badly burned. I was bleeding all over,
and all I could do was to crawl out of
the ruins., I never saw Swanson af
terwards." , ..
Coroner FInley will hold no Inquest
over the body of Henry Swanson. Pieces
of; the cabin In which the explosion oc
curred were picked up for a hundred
yards around. Swanson's face and left
arm were blown off and his body other
wise mangled. His body was taken to
Gresham but funeral arrangements have
not yet been made as the arrival , of
friends from Loon Lake, Wash,, Is
awaited. As he- believes the ancldent
was due to Swanson's mistake, Coroner
FInley says it would be unnecessary to

VERDICT
AGAINST
CHIEF OF POLICE
After nearly - two hours' deliberation
the jury In the damage case of Edward
C. Lewis against Chief of Police Charles
H. Hunt returned a verdict In favor of
Lewis In the sum of $50. The verdict
carries with It the costs of the' suit,
which were not very ; heavy, and the
statutory -attorney's fee of $10. The
case was submitted to the Jury at 3:40
o'clock and the verdict was returned at
6:30. . Several of the Jurors said the
damages - were only exemplary. V They
did not believe 'the chief of police should
be compelled to pay $15,000, the amount
sued . for for false Imprisonment but
they did believe that he had no right
to detain Lewis, 17 days in the city jail
without having him brought before a
committing magistrate. .
Before Judge Cleland this morning,
John F. Dltchburn who, with John F.
Watts, had charge of the case of Lewis,
moved that the name of Detective Frank
Bnow be ' stricken from the complaint
This caused some surprise In the court
room, as Chief Hunt openly , said yes
terday, afternoon that Snow had; told
him that Watts had eald: "We are will
ing to let you and Kerrigan go if you
will agree to help us to stick the old
man" (meaning Hunt). ;. . , ; . . ,, r,
Watts was asked about , the state
ment, of Chief Hunt afterward and he
denied, that, he ever had such a conver
sation with Snow. Asked why Kerri
gan was continued as a' party defend
ant, ' Mr, -Dltchburn simply- said: ? "We
are not through with him yet." ; ;
Asked what he thought of the ver
dict, "Mr. Dltchburn said: ' "I do not
care a cent for the damages or the costs.
All I wanted to establish was the prin
ciple that the police had no right to
detain a man for 17 days without bring
ing him before a committing-magistrate.
I and Watts made our fight on 'that line
without hope of reward, simply to pre
vent (he establishment, of a-precedent
of illegal detention. The Jury took our
view of the case and.se we won.; The
costs will amount to about $160 and the
statutory attorney's-fee will- be. $20,
$10 for each of us, but poor pay for
two days' work in establishing a principle."--
- -. ; . .
Henry E. McGinn, senior attorney for
Chief Hunt said: - "I hardly think an
appeal will" be taken, for the amount of
damages awarded is so small that it Is
hardly worth while to o to further
costs. The evidence did not show that
Lewis had been in any way Injured by
his confinement or by his shackles, but
the Jury found that there had been a
technical violation of the law m regard
to the detention of prisoners, and that
he was -entitled to damages.",
