Will Go on Ballot.
The four renominated Justices will
go on the ballot In November a "Non
political Judiciary" candidates, this be
ing the designation selected 'by the as
sembly, A. E. Clark first suggested
non-partisan", but Colvlg feared this
would stir up prejudice and unpleas
ant memories. J'-:;rv t -.M
"Hearty Indorsement of the plan for
divorcing 'the bench from politics was
given by Joseph W Folk, former gov
ernor of Missouri, who was brought to
the meeting by aeommlttee on his ar
rival in the city In order that he might
. meet the members of the Oregon bar.;
Tha Mteaourian was given, a rousing re
ception when ne arose to speak. '
. "If you can' do anything to make
, judges wore representative of th pub-i
11c and not of any class or party," said
,the K-gavern&jv"you will" have afceom-
' plished much, We need Judges who
will stand for justice and common
sense, jrather , than for ; technicalities."
The speaker tpld of some of his ex
perience with technicalities and"' he
touched upon the responsibilities of the
'sell Brains to -"totsrssts." '
"Too many brillant minds sell their
brains to the Interests antagonistic to
the people." he said, . "It is no part of
a lawyer's duty to advise men- how to
commit crime or to become a partner In
it" v :.-:c; ..v.-. ;.
Before,'" adjournment the 'assembly
adopted a declaration -of principles In
the form of an taddress to the voters
' and Chairman Woodcock was authorized
to appoint a .committee of five, in addi
tion to himself and Seqretary Sinnott
, to composes the campaign .eommittee,
wmcn win nave charge or distribution
of literature and collection of funds.
In presenting the argument for the
non-political ticket the resolutions say:
"This assembly, in presenting these
candidates to Oregon voters deems It
proper to make" a brief "statement of its
purposes and objects. We believe, at
the resolutions indicate," that the time
Is ripe for eliminating political con
siderations In the Selection of Judges?
"Since the duty of a judge la to de
cide causes according to the law of the
land, and- since the law must be the
eamemo all men of whatever condition,
station or opinion, it follows that the
, Judge cannot properly be Influenced by
politics In the discharge of his duties,
and since "the court cannot properly
promote or obstruct political policies,
good or bad, Ja deciding causes before
it, there is no rational ground for the
selection of Judges by the-machinery or
usages of political parties. We believe
that a man's political opinion or affili-
... ation should neither be a bar nor a
qualification for a Judicial office. ;
"The movement now initiated is not
designed as a temporary expedient
but is intended to be urged, and we hope
with success, for all time to come.
. "Under the present, state of. the law,
political- parties have a right which
will doubtless be exercised, to nominate
candidates as Judges of the courts of
this state. While not denying , that
right, we assert also the right to pre
sent to vthe voters the principle which
we advocate in a manner and by a
means within both the lettot and the
. spirit of the statutes of ftAUUstate. x,
, Composed vt'cAMl i.Hr'
... "Xhls assembly- is composed -ofrltl
sens of the state of Oregon, having at
heart its welfare and the honest and
Impartial administration of its Jawa
We have the same Interest as the gen
eral, public, and no opposing interests
In an upright and capable Judiciary.
We believe that the non-partisan eeleo
tion of. the Judiciary now and in the
future will tend to elevate the dignity
- and Independence of the courts, and the
plan -adopted by us will enable the vot
ers of the state, without political ob
struction or interference,' to select can
didates for Judicial offices, rather upon
their merits than upon; their qualifica-
tlons as Judges than upon their "pollti-
U affiliations- onnhe strength" of the
parties to which they may adhere.
; HVe present the nominees of this
assembly to the voters, with confidence
In their ability, integrity and learning,
and with the assurance if they are
elected by the Voters that the cause of
Justice will be promoted, and a prlnoi-
pie approved by the people which will
be beneficial in the future."

After a speedy run from Hongkong
by wsy of Japanese ports and San Fran
cisco, the Norwegian steamer Rygja of
the Portland '&. Asiatic steamship com
pany arrived here this morning. As be
fore when here, the big liner is in com
mand of Captain Svendsen. . ;
The Voyage -w.a. uneventful, Captain
"Svendsen reports jUh fine weather
from the orient .to San Francisco. Com
ing up. the eoas W strong head winds
were encountered - and .. the, atmosphere
was so hazy that- it -was difficult to
see a great distance.
-'But' good, speed was maintained, for
the steamer . passed out through . the
Golden Gate Saturday afternoon and
yesterday afternoon at 10 ehe entered
the Columbia river.
. Captain Svendsen brought the Rygja
in without aid .Of a pilot, as' he has
done four times' before, and saved con
siderable time by doing so. f,-Had he
waited for on he would probably not
have reached the dock until late to
night er tomorrow morning. The tug
boat carrying a pilot met the Rygja
when the latter -was under anchor off
Astoria.-
The Norwegian steamer Titania,
which - left San Ffanclsco early Sat
urday morning; with a Columbia river
pilot on board has not yet reached the
river, so that the Rygja not only passed
the other freighter, but beat her to
Portland by nearly two days.
That the Titania: is safe, however.
was learned this morning when the
steam schooner Rainier reached Astor
ia with the reoort that she had cassed
the Titania down the line, the latter
making poor headway, probably because
of her. bottom belng.fouL The Titania
Is, coming to Portland In the Balfour-
Guthrie tine from Europe and, having
been out about three monthsrit is sup
posed that her bottom is pretty well
covered with weed and barnacles. If
such is the case, she will likely have to
go on, the drydock for cleaning.
Reaching the harbor, the Rygja went
to Alber's dock No. 3, where 600 tons of
oriental freight will be discharged. .This
Is a small quantity of freight for the
liner, as she has a capacity for about
7000 tons. (
In addition to the S00 tons of freight
tha liner brought six pink faced apes
from northern Japan.. These apes are
very rare and are particularly noted
because of the fact that they are one
of only two species of simians that will
thrive in cold climates, In their native
haunts the apes live in the mountains
near the snow line and sometimes they
will venture 'into the 'mow.v'''::-1S-'-v;
Usually monkeys and apes brought
here from the orient suffer from the
cold weather, but the apes brought in
today were rather bothered with ithe
heat and they had td be kept in a cool
place on the vessel. During the hottest
part of the . day , they are set on the
Ice chest : -r k v!- - j-:
t A large African porcupine formed a
part of the animal shipment An im
mense Bengal tiger was to , have ar
rived, but he Willi be Jn on the nex
steamer.
The Rygja will salt for the orient
about August 5 and will, in" ail prob-;
ability, go out filled to, capacity with
flour and lumber, although so far only
a, small portion of the space has been
reserved. ,

Buck Stove Company Forsakes
Open Shop Contention; Con

(Cnlted Preiit Leaied Vlre. "
St Louis, Mo., July 20. A meeting of
the Buck Stove & Range company. was
called today - to ratify the : agreement
reached yesterday " between ; President
Gompers of the American Federation of
Labor, and officers of the company," end
ing the open shop policy which resulted
in a five-year fight between the com
pany and the unions. ;fi vv ''..; h
Gompers, It Is expected, will arrive
late today and will meet the directors.
It will require about three months, it is
thought, to put the agreement Into full
effect ; ; , '
The Federation of . Labor will meet
here in October and it Is believed the
agreement was hastened because of this
fact The. agreement will probably be

against union . labor culminated In jail

Secretary Frank Morrison, of the Am
erican Federation of Labor, admit that
they- have given up the tight Here
after the open shop policy of the Buck
company will not be adhered to, and
union men will be employed.
A statement to this effect was issued
la . Cincinnati , by President Gompers,
Today the company heads declare that
this, statement . is correct ' The change
In policy follows the death of J. W. Van
Cleave, six months ago, who was for
merly president of the company, jand
who, as the head of the National Manu
facturers' association, made his fight
against the employment of labor coun
try' wide. ".'--'!,"-- ..,- .
In his fight against the unions Van
Cleave secured an injunction -against
tha publication of the name of the Buck

unfair list It was for violation of this
injunction that Gompers, Mitchell and
Morrison .were sentenced to Jail, The
appeal in this case is still pending In the
federal courts. , .
Van Cleave's fight against union la
bor, which he called the "muscle trust"
had been carried on since 1905. . t
Cincinnati. July 20. "The aereement

"The only change will be that the

Gompers said he war much gratified
with the change in the methods of tha
Buck company. . ,., ; -
The American Federation of Labor
will assist the striking trainmen on the

" "The '.men on the Grand Trunk had

Reynplds, the negro Pullman porter on
traty number 16 who is' held in the
Josephine county Jail, herefor an at
tempted assault on Josephine Moss, the
13 year old daughter of Joseph Moss
of Grants Pass, will be taken to Rose
burg tonight as the attempt Is said to
have been made in Douglas county. '
The little girl was returning from
Portland and when met at the depot
yesterday by -her parents ahe -began
crying, and after great nersuaslon said
the4 porter had entered her berth but
was driven out Reynolds is said to
have threatened . her and . offered her
candy if she would say nothing of the
affair, f . The girl Is of a retiring dis
position.. She has identified Reynolds.
The Moss; family Is one of, the best in
Josephine county. - . - V
Sheriff Russell guarded the jail- last
night as considerable excitement pre
vailed. Reynolds Is married. 'His wife
lives in Portland. -
W. H. Booth, manager of the Pull
man company, in Portland, today gave
S. Mr Reynolds, negro sleeping car por
ter, who attempted to assault Josephine
Moss on the Roseburg-Eugene passenger
train, a good reputation. He said that
so far as he knew Reynolds, who has
been in the employ of the Pullman com
pany for about three years, had never
before been in trouble.
"We found him an orderly, indus
trious porter," said Mr. Booth. "But
he seemed stupid and I never credited
him with, any great amount of Intel
ligence." ; V - f: ': -.4
Reynolds is about 40 years -of age,
slightly gray and slender. His home
address is 82 North Ninth street
Salem. Or. . July 20. State Senator
W. N. Barrett of Hlllsboro, Washington
county, who was at Salem yesterday,
declares that the majority of the people
In that county are vigorously opposed
to the measure which proposes to lop
off the east portion of ' Washington
county and add it to Multnomah coun
ty. He says that there is no good reason
to be offered in behalf of the step and
that such action would be grossly.detrl
mental to his county politically, finan
cially and physically.
Accordtng to the statements made by
Senator Barrett the proposed measure
will annex to Multnomah county 112
square miles of Washington, county,
carrying with it 1000 .voters, mostly Re
publican, .who are needed to keep the
control of the county's affairs in the
hands of the Republican party. It is
one of. the very .richest sections of the
county, representing one-fourth of the
county's valuation. Washington is also
one of the smallest counties in the
state and the new line will come within
five miles of the courthouse, so any
effort to divide it or change the boun
daries will tie, fought to a standstill.
Mr. Barrett was gathering . data In
Salem for the negative argument that
ha will file with the secretary of state
oefore next -Monday which is to be
published in the initiative and' refer
endum pamphlet that is to be" mailed
to all registered voters in September.
The Multnomah-Washington petitions
were once rejected by Chief Clerlt Corey
for not. a sufficient (number of signa
tures accompanied the petitions when
they were first presented for filing.
Afterward the required : number , were
brought in and the document was duly
filed. .
