John Hall's reappointment a United
States district attorney ia regarded as
strong evidence that the prosecution of
the land frauds In Oregon Is to be car
ried forward with the utmost vigor.
President Roosevelt has repeatedly ex
pressed his determination to bring to
Justice 'every one concerned In these
frauds, and though the trial of the
cases pending before the federal court
In this city was postponed until after
; the presidential election, there la good
reason to believe that this did not por
tend any relaxation In the efforta of the
administration to bring the conspirators
j te Justice.
For the past si months It has been
the belief of those who had had oppor
tunity to learn the president's inten
tions, that Hall would be reappointed.
Roosevelt deatred a district attorney
I who could be relied upon to prosecute
the land thieves fearlessly and relent
lessly. His Inclination from the start
waa to reappoint Hall, and whan finally
Katlafled that the latter would carry out
this policy the president's Inclination
crystallized Into definite decision. It Is
aid that Hall pledged himself unequlv-
t ocally to a rigorous prosecution of tha
isnd frauds, and that it waa this pledge
which led to the president's decision to
give him a reappointment.
Vts a matter of courtesy to the Oregon
senators. Roosevelt deferred action In
the hope that they would agree in rec
ommending Hall for another term. Sen
ator Mitchell Is authority for tha state
ment that Roosevelt said last spring
that if the senators could not agree he
would take tha matter out of their hands
and appoint soma one of hla own choos
ing. It waa wall understood at that
time that Hall' would be his choice.
Tha senators failed to agree, although
the matter waa dlacussed repeatedly at
Washington, sftd after their return to
Oregon last summer. Senator Mitchell
edvocataJ tho appointment of Judge J.
C. Moreland and Senator Fulton held cut
for John Hall.
The president has simply dona as he
said he would do. When It became evi
dent that the deadlock between tha two
senator would not be broken, lie exer
cised his prerogative of naming the
appointee without waiting longer for a
recommendation. Hla action relieves
Senator Mitchell of an obligation to
Judge Moreland. whlan ha baa appar
ently striven hard to f ulfUL As to
Senator Fulton, the president s action
is presumably entirely satisfactory, as
he has been an advocate of Hall's reap
pointment. Persons who were in Washington last
spring when tha matter waa under dis
cussion and who had opportunity to
learn the president's views, express tha
TolJf that even If the Oregon senators

PURPOSES OF GAMBLING
Attorneys Fighting in Court for
the Devices, on Behalf of
the Owners.
Two large money-paying nlckel-ln-the-slot
machines, worth 1110 each, are
now heldfafhe county Jail by Sheriff
Word, who has refused to deliver them
up on demand of Attorney Max Cohen,
representing ft Morton Conn. The stand
taken by the sheriff m that, as tha ma
chines can be used for nothing but
breaking tha law, the state has the right
to confiscate them.
one nt these machines waa taken from
tha house of Mrs. C. Clark, and the other
from that of Basle WStklns. On tha
stand both women testified thst they
did not own the machines and did net
know to whom .they belonged.
Dlatrlct Attorney Manning and At
torney Henry B. McOlnn. representing
ih aharirf. held a conference this morn
ing relative to tbe machines. The dis
trict attorney expressed the opinion tnat
they should be returned. Judge McGinn
differed with him.
They are used for law-breaking only,"
said Judge McOlnn. "and the state may
confiscate them."
The district attorney inquired as to
whether any provlalon of the codea
wlH permit their being held. The sher
iffs counsel said the common law fuUy
severed the point at issue.
About a dosen of the machines, seised
by the sheriff on a former raid, were
returned by advice of Mr. Manning. If
all that are seised should be held, the
loss to the Chicago Novelty company,
which Cobn represents, would be con
siderable. Bssle Watktna' fine of $33,33. Imposed
by Circuit Judge Sears for maintaining
and operating one of these machines,
was paid this morning by Attorney
Cohen.
CONSIDERING THE
CITY'S FINANCES
Estimates Are All Much Too
High, and Must, Be Ma
terially Reduced.
The city executive board, the waya
and means committee of the council
and othera Interested In the finances
of the city met this afternoon to con
sider estlmatea of expenditures and re
ceipts for the coming year.
Auditor Devlin has stated that tha
total amount of the estimated expendi
ture Is nearly twice the sum of the
estimated receipts, and thst a cut must
be made somewhere to adjust matters.
It is expected that a large lump will be
cut from the estimates of both the fire
and police departments. Chief Camp
bell has made provision In his expense
account for next year for Ave new en
gine companies together with horses
and fittings and improvements In the Are
alarm system.
While these lmpmvementa In tha fire
department are needed It will be Impos
sible to make all of them the coming
year because of the lsok of funds. It Is
stated on good authority that funds .for
not more than three of these companlea
will be allowed.
Chief of Police Hunt haa asked for
at least 60 more officers during the
Uewis and Clark fair. This will greas
ly Increase the expenses of his depart
ment. It Is the opinion of the members
of the city council that a larger force
la necessary during fair time but It la
not nt all likely that he will be granted
sufficient funds to add 60 new officers to
the force.
As soon aa the estimates of expenses
have been fixed and the amounts of re
ceipta for the coming year scheduled.
Mnyor Wllllsms will make out his bud
get for 1101. -

son haa glvsn out a statement la which
he reviews the political altuatlondn hla

growth of the minor parties and ahowa
what he regards aa Inconsistencies of
the campaign. Referring to Democracy,
he says:
"My own plans for the future embrace
a complete organisation or tne people
along the lines of Jeffersonlan Democ
racy, the re-establishment of reform and
a systematic propaganda of Jeffersonlan
principles. In order that in IsOs there
shall he a party of genuine opposition to
the Republican party and ita present
policies. If political history teaches
anything, it is that old partlea never ac
complish any reform unless they are Ir
resistibly driven to It by pressure from
without. 1 hop at least to be of some
use to my country In aiding those who
will apply that pressure. It is Imma
terial to me who doea tha work which
the reformer want done, ao that the
work Itself la dona."
Watson devotes considerable attention
to Bryan, and believes that by hla ac
ceptance of and work for the platform
of 104 he haa hopelessly compromised
himself, and can neither become a presi
dent or dictator of platforms which will
Insure a presidency to the Democratic
party. He says:
"in short the Democratic party nss
this hopeless situation the Bryahltea
cannot drive out the plutocratic element;
the plutocratic element cannot drive out
Mr. Bryan. They exhaust their strength
with Internal struggles, leaving the party
where Its enemies can always defeat it
at the poll. There la this further weak
ness In the program ot nr. Bryan tne
Dlutocratto element has shown that It
can safely defy him and combat him, al
though he la the nominee, whereas ne
submits to them' when they put up a
plutocratic nominee."
The Southern Situation.
Referring to the southern situation.
Watson says:
in this manner, our southern country,
which la an empire within Itself, has
been mad a province for a few great
financial magnates, who exploit It for
their private gain without the slightest
eference to tho welfare or tna soutnern
.Die. The situation la pitiable. The
degradation of It finds expression In the
phrase, 'The solid south would vote for a
yellow dog on tha Democratic ticket.'
As a southern man, l am asnamea or
such a state of affairs, and resent It pro
foundly. if I can do anything towara accom
plishing the political Independence of my
own people from this slavish servitude
to a handful of Wall-street politicians, I
consider It a duty to do so. ir the peo
ple's party bad no other mission than to
relax the grasp which to great railway
corporations have upon tha commercial
thmnt of the southern states a grasp
which Is maintained by the alliance be
tween Democratic bosses and Wall-atreet
financial kings then It would have suf
ficient mission to warrant Its oontinuea
existence.
Mv own state of Georgia Is am com
pletely under tbe thumb of Morgan and
Helmont one of whom controls tha
Southern railway combine: the other of
whom controla the Louisville A Naah
vllle combine, aa the stata of Pennsyl
vania la Under the control of the Penn

consin is under the control of those cor
porations which LaFoIlette haa won na
tional fame In combatting. The altua-
tlon la slmDly appalling, ana wouia noi
be believed by anybody who waa not con
versant with the facts.
I exnect to return home and open a
campaign on the lines of Jeffersonlan

out of the control of Morgan and Bel

have come to the Convention thoroughly

Grompers' right.
While the open shop question will take
first place In point of legislation, great
eat interest will center around the elec
tion of president. Oompnrs, long the
leader, tha brain and sinew of tha feder
ation, lg In for the fight of his life.
James Duncan of Roston, who withdrew
from tha contest for the presidency at
the last convention only when a oareful
canvass of his forces showed that
(lumpers had a good majority, has coma
to the gathering this time with greater
strength and more aasurance of suc
cess. He haa been conducting a 12
montha' campaign designed to cause the
downfall of Gompers and ts confident of
success, but the Oomperltes. satisfied to
lot well enough alone, cannot see how
their Idol can be defeated.
One of the most Important resolutions
to be submitted will be that of Presi
dent Michael Donnelly of the Butcher
Workmen's union. It will be aimed at
the Japanese and Is Intended to head off
their promiscuous employment In the
great Industrial plants of the country.
His resolution will call for tha enact
ment of legislation excluding the little
brown men from the United Btatea. The
matter was brought to Donnelly's atten
tion by a call made on him by a promi
nent Japanese tn Chicago, who was seek
ing Information regarding the conditions
In Chicago's packing plants snd who
Showed a letter of Introduction to the
packers, naming the Japanese ' as the
proper person through whom to furnish
them with Japanese labor.
Donnelly Immediately prepared his
resolution calling for the exclusion of
the Japanese.
Plumbers' Affairs.
The flght between the United Associa
tion of Plumbers, Oasfltters and Steam

Plumbers Is expected to take up some of
the convention's time asd the delegates
hops to forever settle tha question of

affiliated with the federation, but tbe
National claims to he the bona fide body.
The pressfseders' squabble In Chicago

Other jurisdiction quarrels will come
up from time to time and vigorous and
decisive action Is promised In all cases.
Tha question of entering actively tn
