NO COIINECTIilG SNITCHES YET South Portland Manufactur ers Again Appeal to the State Commission. (Salem Bureau of The Journal.) Salem, Or., May 23. Because the Southern Pacific has refused to agree to a connecting switch between its tracks in South Portland and the tracks of the United Railways, the manufac turing concerns tributary to those tracks in South Portland have applied to the railroad commission again for assistance. A complaint was filed this morning which requires a formal an swer on the Dart of the Southern Pa cific within five days and hearing: in the near ruture. The railroad commission in a recent order recommended that the United Rail ways and the manufacturers reach an agreement for the installation of this connecting switch, but reserved the right to subsequent jurisdiction If any trouble should arise. Tho United Railways is willing . to build and put up all the expense and the Southern Pacific, it seems, will ul timately have to agree to the building of such switch.

PRISONER SECONDS IQTIOtlS FREED Montana Justice of Peace Finds for Defendant After Asking for Vote. (Special Dispatch to Tha Journal.) Helena, Mont., May 23. Many stories have been told of early day Justice in Montana, . Including the efforts of the Vigilantes to bring about , civilization and peace by their summary methods, but no more ludicrous recital perhaps is better known than the tale of a fioneer which has to do with proceed ngs before a magistrate in this city in the sixties, the truth of which is vouched 'for by authoritative persons. --Charged with grand larceny, an ac cused man was taken before a justice of the peaoe for preliminary hearing. The magistrate was unversed in the wavs of the law, but had a knowledge of parliamentary procedure. Tho pris oner was represented by counsel, while the-only man to appear for the terri tory was a deputy sheriff who had made the arrest after ferreting out the details. He told his story and was un shaken by a severe cross examination. The outlook for the accused seemed serious Indeed. Counsel, however. " at the conclusion of the deputy's testimony! made the customary motion for discharge of his client, based upon Insufficient evidence. "Any second to that 'motion?" piped out the ? magistrate, very blithely. "I second u. your honor, responded the prisoner like a flash. - "All thnae ttt favor of this ' motion will say 'aye, continued the magistrate. frisoner ana counsel arose. "Those opposed. vNay. ' and tha den- Uty, sheriff arose. - "Motion carried; prisoner discharged," commented the court.. Still another story Which has to do with the. same subject Is related as having occurred here, in which the late E. Warren Toole and Cornelius Hedges, who at the time of his 'death was the oldest Masonic grand secretary in the country, were -opposing counsel. two residents got into a controversy over title to certain personal and real property- of an estimated value of $520. Evidence -was adduced pro and con, and an me , conclusion, inc lawyers ad dressed the jurors at great length. Tne jury retired and deliberated on verdict for '24 hours and aous-ht dis charge, being unable to agree, but was sent oacK.,. xnis tune it returned a ver dict to the effect that f 120 should be applied In defraying the costs and the remaining $400 divided between coun sel, which edict was carried out to the letter.

Woodburn, Or., May 23-A large gath ering greeted Governor" Chamberlain In this city this afternoon ; and It was aroused to a high pitch of enthusiasm. The meeting was addressed by Francis Feller, chairman, August Huckensteln, Grant Corby and P. L. Frailer of Salem and Governor Chamberlain. The governor predicted his election as United States senator by a larger vote than he received two years ago for governor. He denounced the old convention methods and referred to the recent Republican state convention as a glaring example. In days gone by corruption and disgrace attended the election of senators by legislatures. Some members of the legislature were not worth S3 a day and were cheap skates that should not be permitted to make choice of senators for the people. Embarrassment All Cake's. Cake, he said, was for Statement No., 1 before the primary law, and had now sidestepped. This evasion had defeated Fulton and would defeat Cake. The present congressional delegation from Oregon was quarreling as to who should hold office and had secured nothing much for the, state. The- speaker de clared he was a Democrat who placed principle above party. If Cake was a Roosevelt Republican, he could not be with the Republicans of the senate and be with Roosevelt. The Democrats were the advocates of Roosevelt meas ures, while the Republicans In congress were with the privileged classes. . The governor promised when elected to advocate all measures In the nan. pie's Interest, regardless of party or of who was president. Pardon Power Hot Abused, He asserted with earnestness that he did not abuse the pardoning power. Many pardons had been Issued when sentences naa been served, and citizen Shin was thereby restored. Other con victs had been seized with fatal Illness and he. wished them to have decent places of burial. A number of boys naa Deen paraonea on largely signed petitions, In the hope that they would make good citizens. The publication of the names of those pardoned would do mucn narm, ne said, ana would cause most of those wishing to lead good lives, to lose their positions. Hembree had been sentenced to one to 15 years and had been pardoned after tne minimum naa Deen served, no had been Informed by Judge McBride, that If the case came up before him he would have set the verdict aside as not having sufficient evidence to sustain lo FROM HEAVEN n ii i r t Woman Declares She Was Dead for Hours Before Be-; ing Kevived. . (united Press Leaaed Wire.) . Chicago, May 23. Pronounced dead. Mrs. Estelle Ashworth was restored to life and today persisted that for hours her "soul" traversed the "streets of heaven." She complained bitterly be cause she had been brought back to the land of the living." "Oh. whv did you brine me back?" she asked continually. "It was so glo rious there, so happy, so happy, so free." Dr. Kanes conxirmea tne story or the woman's remarkable recovery. "For hours." she said. "I was dead. Now I am alive." The doctor says her finger nails were black, her ears discolored and her body cold. "On mere chance," the surgeon says, "I pried open the jaws and ad ministered a stimulant and the woman came back to life and told me her expe riences. She insists that she went to the orthodox heaven and met many old friends there who had died years ago. She was so happy, nhe says, that she la disappointed at being restored to life," WOULD REVISE. "Dixie" Falls Under Ax of Alleged Patriotic Mu sical Butchers. (United Praas Lenscd Wire.) Chicago, May 23 Southern residents of Chicago are aroused over an attempt by the Confederate Veterans of America at St. Louis to revise the words of the famous song, "Dixie." The revisionists think the old words ara too frivolous and ousht to be changed. An old Ken tuoklan, James H. Todd, put his oppo sition to the revision this way: "If they try this Infernal new-fangled experiment. It will mean bloodshed sure." Here are the words revised, Dixie: "O, Dixie Land is the land of glory. The land of cherished songs and story. Look away, look ' away, look away Dixie Land." "Is the land all patriots love to dwell In. The land our fathers fought and fell In.
