From Aloncapo. P. I., comes the re

sonl.. which Bailed from tha Columbia

her destination thla . morning, - which
means that aha covered the long dis
tance In 74 daya, a little better than aa
average voyage.
Tha Eakasonl's delay In getting; away
from Portland was due mainly to the
fact that sailors were not willing to go
to the Philippines on the lumber-carrier.
She appeared to be top heavy and had
a -alight list to starboard while
anohor In the harbor. Thla created
feeling among the sailor men that prob
ably she was doomed to meet the fate
of the British shlp-JDrumoralg, whlob
left tha Columbia river many months
ago bound for Manila with a cargo of
lumber. The Drumcralg never reached

to disf ranchlaa an elector who had voted
for "Julius Caesar (colored)" for one of
the offices, while adhering to the posi
tion that the elector who had voted for
Jimmy Noonan for a' dosen offices
should not ba disqualified. Strode ar
gued that Julius Caesar was nothing
but a colored tramp, while Noonan waa
a proper, person to be placed In a ' po
sition of public trust.-. Tha court, bow.

authority to aay that an elector ahould
not vote for a colored tramp. Both bal

In precinct 70 the recount tallied the

Mr, Hoge chairman instead.
What Xogs Xas to Say.
Concerning the election of chairman
Mr. Hoge aaid:
"We never had any Intimation that
Mr. Flelaohner waa supposed to be the
chairman. When we first organised the
election of chairman was called, and
both Mr. Flelschner and myself were
nominated. I was elected. I don't
think Mr. Flelschner believed he waa
supposed to be the chairman, though It
true hla name appears first on the
list named by -the mayor. .The mayor
said afterward that Mr. Flelschner wae
too modeat to tell ua he waa supposed
to be the chairman. I never heard of
anybody accusing him of being too mod.
est. did your And Mr. Hoge laughed.
It-is evldanly -howsvsr. that Mayor
