Enough .pumpkins were hollowed out
during yesterday and the May before,
just for the benefit of tha boys and
girls, to make pumpkinpiea to last all
Portland for a weak. Every family In
town where there ware- vounratera

and boys' of these old folks were doing

that their parents had played wfth them
Iniolden days when It saemedj that all
the world was yaung.
And so the night was celebrated. Not
only In Portland, but ovr all tha,.world
where All Sain$a'ev4 holds away.-Many
homea were decorated, and there were
parties and dances of all aorta.
The youngsters celebrated . and tried
to scare the smaller ones, ana rinauy

Tha sneaker continued, arguing that
the widespread movement waa no sur
face disturbance, but waa a tidal wave
In Its nature, stirring the hearts and
qnaolences ot the people. It had been
in motlombv the schemes and proj
ects of tha dominant party. It waa not
movement to break: away xrom party
ties, but averv to break awsty from the
political vide a of the preeerM time.
The Republican platform, the speak
er contended, was a mass or apology.
and ever since -its presentation the
speakers of the party baa Dean trying
to explain tha apology. Mr. Taft waa a
bla- man. "tout 'the task of
was too bir for him. ' The
that the platform had died the same
day It had been born, not having vital

of the Bryan platform and dlscuased
them briefly, when he touched on the
bank guarantee plank the audience

doctrine might have been a bad one. I
will- admit that the panlo might hava

bankers of Portland might have been
forced to get down so far as to have
been compelled to issue clearing-house
certificates. It might have grown so
bad that these same bankers might
have been forced to have taken a spe

have gone down on their knees before
the governor and said: 'For God's sake,
George, give us some legal holidays or
we wilt be ruined.'
"I will admit that this might have
happened In IMS In a Democratic panto,
but of course It could not have happened

Tha snsaker contended that, should
