presidential nominee on the Demec ratio
- ticket. He' was the ' only Democrat
elected on the atate ticket in Missouri,
. which had been going solidly Democratic!
by 10,00 to 40,000. - As prosecuting at-
; torney he Indicted 15 men, among them
many of the richest and most promi
nent cltlsens of Missouri. He convicted
: 17, sent three to the penitentiary and a
' number of the others were driven from
; - the state. - The indictments were for
:. bribery, perjury and malfeasance in eon
' i nectloa with the Subarbanvthe garbage
(contracts In St Lou la. and other cor
ruptlon Jn the Bt. Louis city council
and the atate legislature. ' In' jbls prose
! fcutlojis Folk went single-handed against
";the combined political and money pow
ers Of St. LOOlS.. J 1 ., ' i . , '
- Gradually the idea that be was purg
ing the state of 4 stupendous system of
graft and bribery permeated the public
- mind, and the people demanded that he
.be made governor. He was opposed for
- the nomination by thawjnana'gers of both
.political parties, and al) the ;money
'", powera. The people got in and- voted
'and he eras nominated. With him was
'electedFrank Blake, attorney-general.
' Blake, la m Republican, but they went to

instituted suits agalnet

T, !roada la Missouri to t compel them' to

' recently passed. t "
' "The legislature adopted a bill making
it a felony for any one to lay a bet on a
. horse race. The Delmar track at St.
- Louis Ignored the law. The sheriff and
'district attorney declined to n force it.
. ' At first the governor determined to call
- '..out the mllltla to carry the law Into
' effect, but waa advised "by Blake that
" otherv means could be found. They
. finally aecured iti police from 'cities

. Mr. Blake can see nothing but benefit
'to Portland from the Lewis and Clark

will revert to Its normal growth and

Upright, right-of-way maa for the Co
lumbia Railway Navigation company,
stated that right of way has nearly all
been secured and . the engineers have
about 1 finished surveying from Lyle,
Washington, to opposite Wailula, -and
will come , back to Lyle and surrey to
Vancouver. , 1 : -'
-When right, of way Is all secured
conet ruction work will -be commenced
Immediately and traina will be running
Inalde of two years. , When questioned,
Mr. Upright said:
"I am working for the Columbia Rail
way Navigation company, and who is
back of that company I am not at -liberty
-to say -at -the, present timer but J
can tell you that tt Is a transcontinental
line.- :Zr; T-- ; 7- ,
It Is the belief that the Northern Pa
cific is back of the proposed line, as It
la rumored that the C. R. R. at N. Co.
and the Northern Paclfio are banking
their funds together. .
Should this line be built It will open
up vast areas of timber that would not
be brought out for years to coma, and
homeaeekers will come In to the many
valleys la 'the' Cascade mountains,
where many people traveling by boat
or rail on tho opposite side of the river
think there Is nothing but timber and
mountains. -
