Tha speaker then turned to tha his tory or ma two partiea and painted 1.1 lowing colors tne worx tnat nas oren dona during Republican administrations.

To all of these questions Senator Beveridge turned a deaf, ear. refusing ,to listen to, answer or explain them.

BOY TOO ACTIVE AS BAD MAN TO BE GRANTED A PARDON It Is quite probable that tha federal authorities in Portland will oppose the pardon of Frank Mcpherson of Tacoma, rent to McNeil' island for two years by Judge Wolverton for robbing Port land branch postoff ice, in spite of the fact that Representative Francis Cush man of Washington, and other promi nent citizens of Tacoma and the state, liave recommended to the president that the boy be freed. In their appeal t the chief executive f the United States the signers of the petition stat that the boy had been led into the deeds by older persons and that hla, mother in Tacoma is arrang ing to go into the bakery business and wants he" son to assist. Several other reason why the pardon should be grant " ra are also set forth. But several obvious reasons why Me- IPherson should not be let out or prison aire advanced by some of the federal authorities. In company with four e others, McPherson, known as "Floss,1 pulled off some of the most desperate jobs that the Portland police have ever nao to contend witn. The crimes covered a period of about two weeks, there being a holdup, a rob bery, a burglary or a theft of some kind almost every night McPherson, according to his own confession, was in every one of these. One night,' the evening of the robbery of the sub station in Byerley's drug store. Tenth and Jefferson streets, the gang pulled off two JOBS. When "Floss" was taken to McNeil's i- Is said that a brother met him at the prison gates. ABSOLUTE SECURITY. Genuine Carter's Little Liver Pills. Mutt Bar Signature of Labor's Eyes Are Wide Open Now At a Republican meeting hold at the Empire theatre a few nights before the June election. Judge George H. Williams presided, and In a speech predicting sname and diBgrace to tne rair name oi elect a Democrat to the United States ,.. A . , IS m, .mh..!, I wr Bin.. elected. It was more than probable that Bryan would carry Oregon this fall. A great many people are beginning to credit the venerable Judge with being a wise prognostlcator, e a At the June meeting Judge Stephen A. Lowell of Pendleton made one of his characteristic speeches, telling his hear ers of the beauties of Oregon, the won derful prosperity, the abundant crops and tha salubrious climate with which we ate blessed, and predicted that all these might be changed In case the gov ernor were elected. Chamberlain was selected by the people an their senator, and ever alnce then th aun has shone, the flowers have bloomed, the climate has remained about the same and there has been no noticeable waning of pros parity in this state. All - of which goes to show that there are blessings r- . ' r In this life that coma to us from, other sources than the Republican party, e e If anybody tells you that the mills and manufactories will be closed In the vent of Bryan's election, he la Jylng to you. The working men were fooled in 18B, but tney won't Je tnis ye The mills and factories will contln to run on Just the same. The law of supply and demand Is the rule by which they are regulated. Mr. Taft is not making any votes by, calling Mr. Oompers a liar and other wise abusing him. As president of the American Federation of Labor. Samuel Oompers. has several hundred thousand followers who have implicit confidence in his Integrity, his honesty and his recognised ability to better the condi tions of the working people of this country. The Republican candidate Is In bad repute with oraanized labor, and no promises or explanations that he can make will in the slightest degree clear him of his acta of Interference while a judge with the rights of labor, whether organized or unorganized.

Among late news dispatches the cry Is going up in the Republican camp, "Oh, for another Mark Hanna!" Money is not being raised rapidly enough and things are looking bad. But if the late Hanna were here now he would find conditions much changed. His tactics in 189C were something new, and the working people of this country were unprepared to meet them. I do r.ot want to cast any unwarranted re f iectlnna upon the late aenator, but de- lre simply to recall events, matters of history now, it is true, but which many may have forgotten and some never hav known. In the fell of lt. in the midst of th most wonderful campaign a candi date for any office in the world has made. Mr. Bryan visited the city of Pitt.xborg. t'a., and upon his arrival there 1 witnessed a scene such aa I never had beheld before. Nearly 268 policemen were required to handle the immense crowds snd to make a clearing through which the candidate might pass. And that night, although be spoke to thre of the largest audtnnces that ever assembled In the city, fully a hundred thousand people were turned away from the halls and theatres In which the great commoner spofce That was the sentiment of the people of Pit leborg whan, a few days before the elerttoa. th Republican managers sot together and decided that something deaperste- .bed to be atone.
