THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. , THURSDAY EVENING, f NOVEMBER 28.' 1808. 14 HIDE HAMMER AND BOOST FORILL ' California Promotion Com - niittee Adrises People of - Coast States and Outlines Plan for Getting Things of Congress. TRIES TO KEEP WORD TO RETURN ; TO ASYLUM IF MIND FAIL.ED (United Pre Leed Wi) fin Francisco. Nov. 2. That the sentiment for a "united Pacific states" , Is daily, growing stronger is the giht of a statement Issued today by the California promotion committee. The tatentent reads in part as follows: "When the people have come to a full realisation of the force of the state ment that what benefits one part of the PaelffcT slope benefiu every part, a great forward step will have been taken In the development of the western country. In bringing about this situa- t'on, no more potent factor can exert Its Influence than the chamber of com- - meree, board of trade or other develop ment bodv. By a persistent and sys- Jeraatlo campaign of education on broad lnes, progress can be made effectively. "The committee looka forward to the : day when every one of the Pacific states Washington, Oregon. California. Idaho, Nevada and Utah and the terri tory of Arizona will have a state cen tral organisation affiliated with all the local bodies wltiiln It. When that : time comes, 'representatives of these even central organizations can meet and discuss the needs of the region as a unit, and, for instance, unite on what is to da asked In the way of congres sional appropriations. Obviously, be- fore that condition can be brought about, each state must be unified, and sectional jealousies must be eliminated." RARE HONOR TO CBEU Of All the 46 Governors, He Is Chosen to Announce , Conservation Program. (Washington Bureau of The Journal) Washington, Nov. 26. Governor Chamberlain has accepted an Invitation to address a mass meeting here during the conference of governors, December . 1, and unless arrangements partly ef fected are changed, at the same meeting President Roosevelt and President-elect Taf t will also speak. The Intention of the conservation commission in ar ranging the mass meeting was to select one governor to speak for all the gover , nors, and they decided to ask Oregon's chief executive to perform that service. , The mass meeting is designed to give to the public some statement more defi nite than that set forth at the Initial conservation conference at the White ' House, where the Idea was largely to establish' the fundamental principle un derlying the movement that should be launched at the meetings in December. The effort Will be made to begin to evolve definite methods, it being be lieved that the nation has already in dorsed the principle of conservation, nd It la ready for details as to how to accomplish the desired ends. President Roosevelt regards the com ing conference as the most Important yet held, and is taking personal Interest The details are in the hands of Chair man Qif ford Pinchot of the conservation commission. The selection of Chamberlain to ad dress the mass meeting Is regarded as , a most distinguished compliment. GAINED HUG BY EARLY BUYIfJG Thoughtful Purchasers of Turkeys See Prices Drop ' at Last Moment. Angus Duncan MacCIoud. a man of grizzled beard and halting step, pre sented himself 'to Jailer Hunter at the county jail tills morning and asked what he should do. In response to questions he slowly told a pathetic story of fail ing memory and fear that he would do something that Is wrong. He said he remembered that he had hired a number of men to work for him - yesterday, though lie had no work for them.. He ald he told some of them to report to the O. R. & N. car shops. The old man said that he spent last winter in the asylum for the Insane at Steliacoom, Wash., near Spokane. He was discharged last spring, but says he promised that if anything went wrong with him he would come back. He went to southern Oregon and worked at Grants Pass. About two months ago his memory began to piny him tricks and he realized that he was becoming irresponsible. Then he began to work his "way northward, determined to ful fill his promise to return to the asy lum. "I h.ve worked my way 'this far," he aald, "and now I can go no further. I have no business in Oregon now, and I have done my best to get back to Washington. I am afraid J will do something that is not right, because I hired a lot of men yesterday." MacCIoud ascribes his troubles - to blows he received on his head many vtn ss-o. He says he was hit by tome ahaftlno- while at work as a ma chinist in Bloomlngton, 111., and later was Injured in the same place while try ing to slop a ruaaway team in ueray ette. Ind. He says he was confined in the asvlum at Steilacoom under the name of Tabor, as he had a letter on him addressed to a man by that name, and the authorities thought that was hl true name. Jailer Hunter will take care of him today andgive him a Thankngivlnr dinner, and tomorrow a decision will be reached as to what shall be done with him.

Stark. Dan J. Malarkev and John FV Lrfiran conducted the examination, and their Inquiries soon developed a lack of mem ory In the witnesses as to the transac tions by which it was claimed they hare disposed of all they owned.

He managed to free himself and report ed the occurrence to the police The arrest of Furlong followed, and the de. tectives expect to be able to get the other man before long.
