At the meeting of the Retail Liquor
Dealers' union at Alisky hall this af ter
' noon, the saloon men of Portland were
out in force. Louis Dammasch, the
president of the union, in defining the
position of the liquor dealers, said:
"Our meeting is for the purpose of
making plans and raising money to de
feat the local option movement The
- naloonmen of .the state represent a
power which,; if united, can overcome
1 the effort being made to wipe them out
of existence.
"We have the wholesale liquor deal
er and the brewers at our back, and
can raise plenty of funds to make war
gainst the enemy. We will appoint
agents in all parts of the state to look
after our interests. It Is simply a mat
ter of getting votes and being alert.
Unless the saloonmen make an effort to
' stand off the work of the local option
and "prohibition element we may have a
march stolen on us and the state - be
placed In the same class as Kansas or
some of the New England states.
"The saloon-keepers of Portland rep
resent a class' that are paying' a great
per cent of the revenues of. the city and
re entitled to consideration at the
.' bands of the tapayers."
, Rev, G. L. Tufts, representing the
Anti-Saloon league of America, has beet)
In Oregon for several months wprklng

tition under the law to make the- matter

suppoHer of the anti-saloon movement
B. Lee Paget, an enthusiastic conference
' worker; in speaking of the matter, said:
i . "The prohibition party will place a
ticket in the field at the coming electlQn.

The Gay Young Prince
Yee of Korea
From the Chicago. Tribune.
He was a. sad flirt that pale, yellow,
little royat 'prince, who, nntll recently
was a student at the Ohio Wesleyan
university, Delaware, Ohio. Prince Pln
kell Yee Is his name, and there is but &
single feeble life between him and what
may - be-lert of the ancient throne of
Korea, after Russia and Japan get
through flghtlng over It : -..
Prince Yee Is tS. , The first U -years
of his life he spent in the royal palace
at Seoul, which is the strangest possible
Jumble of Oriental splendor and Occi
dental trash. In the audience chamber
of Li Shi, his Imperial father, for in
stance, two cheap I American chromes
hang on the walls in the place of honor,
and the walls and ceilings are covered
with particularly hideous green striped
wall paper. On the floor is' a gorgeous
red ; and green Ingrain carpet, which
would be dear at. 60 cents a yard, and
the ordinary glass windows are draped
with bargain sale lace curtains.
His majesty, LI Shi, ! accustomed to
go to bed at 4 o'clock In the mornlns.
at which hour the remainder of the in
habitants of the city get up, for the good
reason that at that hour the Imperial
brass band, braying its loudest, starts on
a march round and round the royal pal
ace,, being followed by tha greater por
tion of .the . army. This daily parade
is kept up, from i to 6 o'clock, and when
It stops people are too- thoroughly
Wakened to i think of going to sleep
again.
Prince Tee's mother is the Lady Om,
that consort of the emperor about whom
a most remarkable lot of fairy stories
have been circulated. It has been stated
again and again that the Lady Om was
Miss Emily Brown, born the daughter of
an American clergyman at Appleton,
Wis., some 43 years ago, and who was
he went to' Seoul as a missionary more
than 25 years ago, ..' This story, however,
is emphatically ; denied by those who
should best know .
However that may be it is a fact that
Prince Yee la greatly in love with Amer
ica, and more especially with American
girls. From bis ISth to bis 18th year he
lived in Japan, where he studied military
tactics and got his first tapta of western
civilisation.' Then he was sent to
America, where, for a year he lived at
the Korean legation at Washington, and
there studied both the language and the
customs of America. For a little while
he attended school at Roanoke, Vs., and
It was while there that he first broke
into the newspapers. It appears that his
royal father, wishing his son to be ac
customed to a frugal and hard life, gave
him an allowance of only f ZOO a month,
a sum by no means sufficient to keep the
young prince in spending money.
Accordingly, on his frequent visits, of
pleasure tqr'New York be was accus
tomed to borrow money from the bank
ing Arm of Wolfe Bros. A Co. Finally
the amounts he had borrowed reached
the considerable sum of 130,000. When
Prince Yee was summoned Into court
to pay the loan he replied with an an
swer which would have dona credit to
the most talented of American college
students. - '-
"Go and see papa," said Prince Yee.
Later he went back home for a short
visit and It Is perfectly safe to say that
the young man's college clothes and silk
hats created a considerable sensation
among tha ladles of the court.
Coming back to the United States,
Prince Yee entered the Wesleyan univer
sity at Delaware, Ohio, taking a special
course in English. He was accompanied
by an older native of Korea, who also
matriculated as a student and who bore
the title of secretary to bis highness.
Prince' Yee had not been at Delaware
long before ' he evinced a remarkable
fondness for the society of the pretty
coeds of the school; He grew enthusi
astic in praising the beauty of American
girls In general, and, in particular, he
waxed eloquent in praise of Miss Gra
ham, a pretty daughter of West Vir
ginia, who was a fellow student. Those
who have seen the women of Koreo say
It Is no wonder Prince Yee thinks Ameri
can girls are beautiful. And those who
have seen' Miss Graham declare that she
is quite worthy to shine In the special
favor of a royal prince.
But presently there came to Delaware
a pretty and dashing young . milliner
from Cincinnati named Clara BuIL Miss
Bull came to Delaware to act as a model
at a special exhibition of the latest Paris
PAVING PROTEST IS
SUFFICIENTLY SIGNED
A careful count of the property rep
resented legally on the protest against
tha Twenty-third street asphalt paving
has determined the 'fact that the im
provement Is killed. Some 80,000 square
feet represented on tne remonstrance
was declared illegally there, but there
still remained enough to defeat the
paving and this means that the meas
ure must rest for six months until
another petition can be" brought in.
The failure of the Twenty-third street
paving to pass , is a surprise to the
city authorities, who had hoped' to see
the street put into a good condition to
accommodate the traffic that must pass
that way to reach the grounds of the
forthcoming Lewis and Clark fair.
KNIGHTS ORGANIZE

A delegation from Portland council' of
Knights of Columbus will visit Baker
City next Sunday, for the purpose of or
ganising there a new council of the or
der. Delegations will also be present
from Spokane, Walla Walla, Seattle and
Tacoma. The visiting knights will re

council will conslat of B. L. Norden,
state deputy organizer; John M. Gearln,

WEDDING WILL NOT
BE HELD IN CHURCH
The marriage of Miss Evelyn Steel, to
Harry M. Walthieu, which was to have
taken place In the First Congregational
church at 8:30 o'clock this evening, has
been transferred to the Gullllaume, S3
North Eighteenth street. The change
was made because of the Illness of Miss
Steel's mother.- Mrs. James Steel. Only
the immediate, family of the bridal
couple will attend.
t , Foolish Bast. '
From the Atlanta Journal.
A man fell dead In upper Manhattan
the other day while running to catch a
train. Doubtless the next tram left in
live minutes. ' .
styles, and it may be taken for granted,
therefore, that she is a yeung woman of
great pulchritude. Miss Bull and her
sister stopped at the Jiotel where the
prince and bis secretary occupied a suite
of rooms, and the young man fell in love
at first sight. An introduction was ar
ranged, and for some months he was ex
tremely devoted to her. He even went
so far as to present a diamond ring to
Miss Bull, but no engagement was an
nounced, it being explained that if the
prince should marry an American wo
man he would be forced to give up all
claim to the Korean throne. ?
Later other pretty girls appeared on
the s6ene and dimmed the memory Of
Miss Bull In his mind, . until it came
about that young Prince Yee won the
reputation of being an exceedingly fickle
young man.
His chance of ascending the ancestral
throne of his fathers the family has
been at the head of the Korean govern
ment for 600 years are thought to Be
exceedingly good. The crown prince,
his elder brother, who now stands be
tween him and the throne, is said to be
in delicate health, and, besides, is not
bright mentally. It is also said that the
Lady Om, mother of Prince Yee, and the
present reigning favorite with the em
peror, is exceedingly anxious to see her
own son oh the throne. In the mean
time, Prince Yea bears the official title
of commander of the Korean army. It
is against the Korean law for the crown
prince to expose himself in battle, the
royal family being represented in the
ranks of warriors by its second son.
for that reason Prince Yee has always
been a close student of military tactics,
both In this country and Japan.. ; -;
personally, prince xee has declared
that he' hopes he may never be called
pon to ascend the tnronaHemuch
prefers the free and unconflned life of an
American college student : ' -,
Our kings," he says, "are kept In
the strictest seclusion and are guarded
with the greatest care. All day long
is spent in a round of tiresome and elab
orate court ceremonies. Then In the
evening his majesty shuts himself up
with the court counselors and matters of
importance in the government are con
sidered and decided until long after mid
night It Is a hard and unattractive
life." -
On the subject of marriage and of the
attractiveness of American girls ha has
decided views. ,
"In my country," he says, "a, man
never even sees the face of his intended
bride until after the marriage ceremony
has been performed. : The match Is ar
ranged by his parents and those of the
young woman. The contracting parties
do not even meet until the wedding day.
After they are married thft husband may
lift the veil and look at the face of his
bride. Perhaps be may find her beauti
ful. Perhaps and a marriage is a mar-
flags in Korea. We have no divorce
aws in my country. The natural re
sult is that there is a great deal of un
happlness in married life. , ,
"I like American' girls exceedingly.
They are not afraid to come out into
the sunlight and be seen. In my coun
try the women are kept secluded, and,
strange as it may seem, go out to make
all their calls at night after the dark;
ness naa zaiien ana tney are sate irom
Observation, ,
Prince Yee declares that his country
owes all the progress it has made in
the way of western civilization to the
enterprise of Americans. He ' would
like to see Korea come completely un
der American influence, not only com
mercially but in other ways. .
' "My ancestors,"' be says, "drove Budd
hism almost entirely , out - of . Korea.
There are still Buddhists in the countrv.
but their temples are up in theTillls and
mountains and are not allowed in the
cities. Confucianism is the prevailing
religion of the people, though the court
may almost be said to bave a religion of
Its own, of which the worship of the
ancestors of the royal family is the lead
ing feature. Four times in every year
the emperor leaves his palace, and, sur
rounded by an imposing retinue, makes
A pilgrimage to the tombs of his ances
tors, where elaborate ceremonies are car
ried out. In recent, years Christianity
has made great progress in Korea, and I
sheTuld be glad to see it generally
adopted.'"
It is plain to be seen that in case
Prince Yee should come to the troubled
throne of his fathers the United States
would have a friend at court in the high
est sense of the term.
TO MAKE RAILWAY
. COACHES SAFER
(Journal Special Service.)
Washington, Feb. 16. Under the su
pervision of the interstate commission a
bill is being prepared which, if it be
comes a law, will compel railroad com'
panics to build stronger coaches and
other passenger cars, with the exception
of sleepers. The bill will be Introduced
by Representative Each of Wisconsin,
and will provide that all coaches and
cars for passenger service shall be con
structed With steel sleepers and Steel
sills.
The American Railway association has
been asked to submit details which
would be practical from a railroad
standpoint, and every care is taken to
have the measure such as will effect
greater safety In construction. Before
beginning the draft of the bill Represen
tative Ksoh made a long investigation,
going thoroughly into the history of ear
construction. He conferred also with
government officials, who expressed the
opinion that something should be done
to prevent the further construction of
light railway coaches which either tele
scope or break like egg shells in the
event of a wreck, thereby causing a
large death and casualty rate.
It Is asserted that the immunity from
death and Injury which passengers in
sleeping cars enjoy is due largely to
steel underframe construction, and it la
understood that the construction of the
present-day eleeplng car will be taken as
a standard. In this event all day
coaches, smoking cars, buffet cars,
chair and parlor cars will have to be
bu)lt with extension steel beams and
possibly be provided with steel plat
forms and non-telescopable device.
In view of the unusual number of
lives sacrificed In railway wrecks the
last year the urgent need of aome such
legislation Is appreciated. At the same
time the bill will undoubtedly give the
railroads a reasonable length', of time
with which to comply with the provi
sions of the measure. This time will
be sufficient to permit of all bid equip
ment wearing out, but it will also pro
vide that all cars to be constructed after
the passage of the measure shall be of
the required standard. It is the purpose
to place, the. enforcement of the mea
sure in the hands of the interstate com
mission, as is the case with the en
forcement of the automatic coupler and
other measures requiring the use of
safety devices.
A Flue Distinction.
From the St Louis Post-Dispatch.
Eleven highwaymen have been sen
tenced to the penitentiary, and they may
all get' there. It Is safer, though more
dishonest, to be a boodler than a high
