AFT CAUSES SURPRISE
BY DEFEND
Secretary of War Shows Feeling at New
York Banquet and Unless Misquoted
. Distorts Facts to Suit His Viewpoint
JHeant Xews by Longett httnei Wire.)
,L, Sew Tork, Tab. 89. Secretary Taft
spoke at dinner of tae Brooklyn Bu
association tonight (i "Tne conitTO
tlon of the IXnited Statea," and put up
W defenae for Asiatics that will un
doubtedly put him out of the race for
tha presidency to far as the riolfio
coast la concerned. Altar tne news ox
tha epeeoh waa circulate here aereral
labor leaders, whan" ftskad for mi opin
ion, mld!..,MTha eecretary U only fol
lowing lila wall-known method of deal
log with tha plain paopla. Tart loTeo Aal
atice, and ha will hara thonbeos.ua
they 'arc cheap labor.'
Tha secretary 14 that ha waa In
faro af "enlarging tha powers of tha
fidaral gorenunent," to fas aa atatea
war concerned, and la tha" next breath
went Into a tirade against California
"and other eoaat atatea, which, beoause
, of. local conditions, had Been fit to dls-
coarage Japaneae immigration.
Congresa, herald, had, never Exceed
ed in fact, not even reached the limit
to which, unfer the constitution. It was
Juatlf6 to Increase the judicial pow
ers of tha federal courts. The courts'
. powers, he .said, are strictly defined by
the constitution. ' The Interstate com
merce commission, he said, was made
necessary by Infractions of the laws.
- There la yet a large margin for con
stitutional JegislatioiOby congress. In
reference to the federal bankruptcy
laws.
, Perhaps the onlv positive suggestion
advanced by the secretary was in re-
fard to the treaty-making power of the
nlted mates senate and the honoring
of such treat.es by the various states. ,
Referring to California's refusal to
abide by the promises made by the fed
eral government, in the controversy
growing out of the Jap riots, the secre
tary said:
"It puts our country In the most
pusillanimous position of promising
that subjects of another country shall
be properly treated and then of having
no means of carrying out the promise
or of punishing those who violate It.
Fancy . the feelings of a secretary of
state who Is obliged to say to. a for
eign country. It Is true we agreed to
protect your citizens as subjects of
your country over here If they conduct
ed themselves peaceably, but under our
form of government And laws, while we
made that promise and had a rtght to
make It, we have no means of comply
'. tng with It .All we can do is to make
a- respectful presentation to the state
authorities and ask them as a favor to
us to enforce the law.' "
The comment was that the facts a
represented, unless the secretary wss
misquoted, were distorted. No refusal
on tfee part Of any Pacific coast city to
offer protection to the Japanese haJ
been apparent. The school question is
the oniy controversy in .the limelight
and a few incipient quarrels between
wiiues ana Drowns nave oeen reported.
Tha speech caused consternation
among the Taft managers.

Union Republican Club Turns Down
New Yorker and Statement No. 1.
Indorsement of Governor Hushes of
Now York for president was turned
down with a whoop at the Union Re
publican club's smoker last night. 8. S
Humphreys introduced the resolution
and had no sooner finished reading it
than Dr. Emmett Crake waa on his
feet with a motion to table.
Dr. Drake said that while he believed
the Republicans of Oregon are prac
tically a unit for Secretary Taft, it was
Inadvisable for the Union Republican
club to go on record for any candidate
for the presidential nomination.
The burden of most of the talk at
the smoker was opposition to State
ment No. 1. Every speaker expressed
hostility to that feature of the primary
law, except C. W. Hodson, who was
told by thetchalrman that he would not
be allowed to talk on it.
Georgs W. Stapleton characterised
Statement No. 1 as a democratic trick
to get Republican votes and said that
it wU preposterous to supposa that any
good Republican wpuld tie himself up to
a declaration that would compel him to
vote for a Democrat for office.
In the course of his remarks Mr.
Stapleton Wandered into ancient nolltl-
cal hjstory and brought down upon his
head the wrath of Judge Haynes and
J. D. Lee when he declared that the
panic or 1893 and the succeed nir hard
times were caused by the luftelery of
tho Republican party with the silver
qugstlon. He, however, won for himself
the . vigorous plaudits of the crowd by
saying mai me KepuDiican convention
held yesterday afternoon was the best
political Katherinsr that he hod ever at
tended and waa In every way an emi
nent success.
W. M. Cake spoke, urging united
and harmonious action bv the Repub
licans of Oregon. He said that if the
candidates defeated at the primary elec
tion would turn their Runs on the enemy
and not on their successful onnnhenta
no Democrats would be elected to any
impurwni onice in xnu state. w. s.
u Ren came In for a thorough tonsue-

Among the -most lofty skyscrapers of
Portland is the steel structure of the
Portland Commercial club building,
which Is receiving US .finishing touches.
It stands on the lower end of the tall
buildings on, Fifth street, which vies
with Washington in being favored with
new and thoroughly modern office
structures. The steel for this buildinsr
was manufactured right here in Port
land by the Northwest Bridge company,
the big plant of which ia located at
Fifteenth and North Front streets. This
big Portland concern is turning out
steel work for fine buildings and
bridges,,ali over the northwest. Among
its recent orders was the steel work for
me Ulackflmai river bridge. Doubtless
few Portland residents are fully aware
of what amount of manufacturing la
going on in their own midst.
Another big Portland corporation that
is carrying on operations on a gigantic
scale is the Portland Bridge & Bulldins
company, of which Robert Wakefield
is president, inis company is engaged
In the erection of steel buildings and
bridges, it Is safe to say that no build

While the Commercial club hniMinir

rjuuo. no new Duiiamg in Portland has
rented to responsible tenants quite so
readily as this. Floor nftr n
been leased, which has doubtless been
a source of great satisfaction to the
owners, architects and builders. The
three upper floors will be occupied by
the club leaving ;ive floors for out
side tenants, one of which will be en
tirely mOnODOliZed bv- th Purlin t.

rented to W. J. Clements, the Insurance
man. board of trade and the Union As
surance company.
A feature of the,' building that has
already elicited much favorable com-
nipnt are tne van Kmon elevators.
These passenger elevators nr nt tha
newest and most approved type To
be awarded the contract, In view of the
keen competition among elevator manu
facturers, speaks most highly for the
merits of the Van Emon elevator. It Is
said that most of the prominent office
buildings on the mast are equipped with
this type of elevators, and owing to
their durabllTty, simplicity, rapidity
and absolute safety, tneir superiority
oyer other makes is readily acknowl
edged. The- heatin system of this building
l .f ,tne CTav),y type, the same system
that is used in the large office struc
turos of the city with few exceptions.
It waa installed by Gardner & Kendall,
the oldest manufacturers of the city.
A few of the prominent buildings in
which they have Installed plants dur
ing the past year are: Alexander
Court, Norionia hotel. Dr. Cornelius and
Jbaiawm-j. owney.
Among the interior features that are
noted bv builders and architects IS
the character of f l-eproof Windows
which were supplied by the Portland
Sheet Metal works. The factory which
turns out this work Is located on East
Madison street, and it compares favor-
aoiy witn anything in the country in
Its line. With their splendid facilities
they turn out everything in the way of
beautiful and artistic metal cornices,
skylights and store fronts, which for
excellence of workmanBhln cannot be
surpassed. The flttlnc atvla and man

In a word, nothing has been over

this building the one place where
dentists and doctors should be lo

worked out with great success, and
it is the bejief of the owners that an
equal success may be had in this
city.
ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT
I have a number of propositions open to both dentists and doctors, where one
dentist or dbctor would like to share the reception-room with another practitioner.
If you are dissatisfied wth your present location and would like to be In the
MEDICAL BUILDING, if you had someone to share the expenses of . your reception-room,
and feel diffident about approaching someone on the proposition,
let me hear from you. I can do the business easily and pleasantly for you.
