THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY BVBNINO, OCTOBER 19. ljOf. It TRUSTS A MENACE, SAYS SIR JOHN Distinguished Scot Deplores Sad Conditions in America and Places the Blame. THINKS PEOPLE WILL OVERCOME ALL CRAFT Declare Heart and Mind of Amer icans Sound Enough to Combat Successfully Great Evil Which Is Throttling America' Liberty. Bir John Lena; thinks the trusts an a menace to America. At the luncneou given In his honor yesterday afternoon at the Portland by the Scottish societies of this city he spoke his mind oa too Question. In Dart he said: The Impressions that I received whlls visiting America last year and on my c resent trip have revealed to sas tne eon Stent change that la going on In tills great country and also the great changes that have been mads. They nave re vealed to me the wonderful strength of the constitution of this country the constitution which haa been recognised the world over as the greatest monu ment to human wisdom the world has ever known. But time has shown -her. as everywhere that the success of the constitution and the working of the political machines depends upon the men who work them. However perfect they are. their value depends upon the man ner In which they are turned to account. What Would Washington Bay! "I have often thought. In the past few years what Washington. Jefferson, Adams and others of those great pa triots would think If they could revisit ths scenes of their life work and be come acquainted with the workings of the gigantic trusts which have become to partake of so important a part In American affairs. What they would think If they knew that they contributed their trust funds to gain political ends. It Is deplorable end I am happy In the knowledge that no such condition exists in my own country. The result ' has been to throw the political power Into the hands of cor rupt. Ignorant and tyrannical bosses who subserve the Interests of the people and the state for their own greedy ends. "But I have the atrongest belief In America. Her people are true. I waa pleased to aee the uprising which oc curred In so many of the large cities last year against that greatest of evils graft. I was not only pleased at the uprising, but st the vote which followed. It waa plain to me that the great body of the people were against the Installa tion and fostering of such s pernicious system. I have not been able to follow up. this question as I would like to, but I hope that the effort last year were not spasmodic and the movement started will be followed until the last vestige of graft haa been eliminated. "The results that I did see satisfied me in my own mind that the hearts of the people are sound and their minds right. With such conditions existing there is no danger tor the government." Talks of Parliament. Sir John referred to his life In the British parliament. He said: "There far no such thing in ths eld country as trust funds for political pur poses. There Is no field for lobbying In parliament. No, man ever aprpoached me in ths It years I served there with a view of obtaining anything that waa meant to serve his own ends. As a political body It Is perfectly pure and every man Is looking for the advance ment of his country. Self comes last. "The tariff In England la a dead horse. It waa downed In Britain by the thought that Its adoption would result In the same great evils that have followed Its practice In America. The movement for the tariff over there will cease entirely with the death of Joe Chamberlain, who has been Its champion." Sir John closed his remarks with s glowing tribute to the American people and President Roosevelt. He also .re ferred to King Edward's visit to various rulers of Europe, who. he amid, were in closer harmony as a result of ths English monarch's visit than they bad ever been before. He spoke feelingly of meeting with former United States Attorney-General George H. Williams and of discussing ths part which the venerable Portlander played In the set tlement of the Alabama claims, which Sir John said waa ths first great step In the movement toward permanent peace among the nations. m "Doen's Ointment cured me of ec sema that had annoyed me a long time. The cure waa permanent." Hon. S. W. Matthews, Commissioner Labor Statis tics. Augusta, Ms. Keeping a Big Brewery Clean Pabat Never Brews Beer on Saturday Immense Plant, Always Clean, Gets Weekly Scrubbing. Scrub day at the breweryl Readera of The Journal didn't know there is such s day. did youT Well, there la at the big Pabat brswery In Milwaukee snd it Is nothing but "scrub day." You might be surprised to see how thor oughly the cleaning la done and to know that on scrub day no other work la attempted anywbere In ths brewery, except In the shipping deportment, of course for the work there never oeaaea. Saturday Is the Pabst scrub day all the year round. U you were to vlalt the brewery on any Friday and were told that on the following day the vast plant would be shut down for cleaning, you would say, "I don't aee any reason why It should be, for It Is clean now." Tea. that's so. The Pabat brewery la always clean clean aa the olsansat kitchen becauss It Is kept clean. The Pabst process of brewing beer Is a per fectly clean process. But the weekly crub day Is considered by Psbst an additional and Important feature of the keeping elways clean process. It Is rv-t of th enormous ortcs paid for the absolute cleanness of Psbst Blus Rib bon the beat beer ever brewed. Not a kettle bolls, not a pint or Deer la brewed In ths great Pabst plsnt on Saturdays. In all parts of ths brewery the cleaners are at work with scrub brush snd water. The walla and noors of cement and brick, .every root or space, every nook and corner from the great cellara below the ground to the top of the five and stx-story build ings, is cleaned until it fairly shines. The verv sxtreme of care la shown In cleaning and rinsing the brew kettles, vats and pipes nothing but pure water, pumped to the reservoirs at the toD of the brew house and great stor age warehouses ' and then filtered, being used. This weekly cleaning Is so thorough that ws cannot even sttempt to de scribe its effectiveness, snd when you stop to consider that It represents merely a part of the Pabst watchful- neaa against any possibility of con tamination or impurity In Pabat Beer then you will understand why we say Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer la the cleenest beer brewed. It Is the purest beer and the richest In food value, too, because made only from Pabat exclusive eight- day malt, choicest Imported hops and pure water. Money and skill cannot buy or produce better Ingredients. Pabst exclusive eight-day malt, grown alowly and naturally from finest barley, retains all the food value of the barley in pre-dlgeated form, and makes Pabat Beer the moat nourishing, moat refresh ing beer in the world. Pabat Blue Ribbon Beer, the choicest of all bottled beers, perfect In sge, purity and strength, Is the beer for the home. MAYOR TELLS WHY UIID 34 P0UHD5 HE USED AX db. wxuiajcs rarer, nua.

Mayor Lane told the police committee yesterday evening that he had suspended Ben Biglin, harbormaster, for the good of the olty, aa he did not believe Biglin could ever make a harbormaster of the kind Portland ought to have. He also declared that any man who uaed fire arms as recklessly as did Biglin on the night of October 1, when from a launch he fired a shot Into the water becauae of a light under Montgomery dock No 2, waa a dangerous man, and not fit to nave any authority. John P. Logan, attorney for BtgUn, declared with equal emphasis that the mayor and the committee had already condemned Biglin and that the trial waa fame. So the lawyer and the mayor exchanged hot shots during the whole three hours' session. 'You're Injuring your client with the committee," said R L. Sabln finally, after Logan had been denouncing tig mayor for several minutes. Ths lswyer changed his tactics at this, but the meeting never lost Its Interest. Mayor Offers Bvtdsnos.

"Do you want a spindle-legged clerk to get up fsncy statistics or a real man who will look after the greatest Inter ests of the harbor?" he demanded. Over a dosen witnesses testified thst they considered Biglin an efficient har bormaster. But when the mayor, who acted as prosecutor before the com mittee, put the reports up to them and aaked whether they believed the city was getting the service ' to which It lo entitled they had to change their tune. The Biglin case was taken under ad visement and a number of police cases postponed until Tuesday. It Is expected that the committee will make Its report to the executive board this afternoon.

OREGON DOES MUCH TO AID CUDS! Of IRELAND, Contributes More Than Any Other State in Comparison With Her Population. That Oregon had contributed more to the oauae of home rule In Ireland In the fund that ia being riaaed than any other state tn the union in propor tion to Its population was announced at the Philadelphia convention of the United Irish league. Father Murphy, delegate to the convention from Ore gon, spoke of thla announcement last night at a banquet given tn his honor at the Hotel Portland. Referring to the convention Father Murphy said further: "That great convention of earnest and patriotic Irishmen who are trying to uplift old Ireland teachea us all a spirit of unselfishness. If you could have seen the magnificent aaemblaga composed of men who were there to help a people who cannot help them selves, you would be doubly proud to be an Irishman." W. A Munly, speaking on the sub ject. "Home Rule," said in part: "The spirit of revenge or retaliation doee not move the Irish, but the deter mination to regain our rights, which were purloined and atolen from us, la why there la an Iriah question today. That ia why the Iriah have an Indict ment against England and the English people. The Irish are noted for their allegiance to principle, and there will be no compromise. Ths Irish have their virtues, their noble characteris tics, and their vices and weaknesses, but It must be admitted that they al ways corns out strong, be It for good or for 111."
