anti-assembly Candidate for governor.
Calls Judge "Non-Suiter."
"JudB Cleland Is" the friend of the
corporations," said. Mr. McQlnn. "He
Js the famous non-suiter. Lawyers are
cowards. When the corporations packed
the convention they were afraid to re
iilst ' There were a doien men there
who had been admitted to the bar, but
had never practiced law. They were
put In there by the corporations. One
.of them wasa fellow named Sherwood,
a policeman, who was admitted to the
bar in Kansas. . There were Colonel
Eddy and a fellow named Smith, ser
vants of the O. R. A N., and others. I
want you to remember these names
because I am citing facts.
"Then you know Cleland leaches in
the law school. Teaching is sometimes
remunerative, toa The corporations
went to the boys who had lust rradti
ated and said, "Boys, here's a chance to
support your old professor on contracts,
we want the reign of non-suits, and
:ielandlwm to end. When tile attorneys
icva a case against a corporation cold
.chills run down their spines If It comes
vp berore Cleland.
. Mr. McGinn , took a shot at the In
dcmnlty Insurance companies, the Port
land Railway, Light APower Co., the
railroads, and incidentally, hit those
physicians In the employ of the cor
porations.
Xow Corporations Win.,.
;; The pulillc service corporations have
the same legal machinery as the Insurance-companies,"
he said. "Many
urnes me aoctor you call to your aid
wnen you are hurt and believe to be
your friend, , is In league with the cor
jwrauons. Many pnysieian" are pro
visional witnesses for the corporations.
Ana many do not hesitate to perjure
.themselves. I toll you, wa lawyers
ccme to know the doctors who testify
for the companies and do not tell the
truth. When a doctor tells you he has
been a witness In more than four per-
, eonal Injury cases, don't believe his tes
timony too much. The Portland Rail
way, Light A Power Co. has the same
legal machinery to protect against dam
age suits.
"W. W. Cotton, counsel for the O. R.
& N. and Southern Pacific, told a friend
of mine that when It came to driving
the Insurance companies out of the
state, he would assist Perhaps he will
r.ot be In a position to assist, but his
heart Is In the right place. The in
surance companies and the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Co., have In
vaded the Jury box. .--
1 rew Farmers as Jurors.
'"Have you noted that there are few
farmers on the juries nowadays I
don't know how It happens, but it Is
true. Ralph W. Wilbur said wa must
not have farmers on our Juries. Now
a case comes up and is not tried by a
Jury, but by detectives. Do you remem
ber the story of how the maimed brake
man went to the railroad magnate and
aked for a settlement? Well, the mag
nate told . him he would do nothing.
"Well, I'l sue you then,' replied the
brakeman. - '
".'It would be no use,' said the mag
nate, Tou must remember you must
have 12 Jurors, and we need only one.'
"The assembly would have us go back
to the beautiful legislative, bribing sys
tem. I say, swat everyone who refuses
to stand by the Street primary -f and
Statement No.. 1. , '. -
Roars of applause that continued for
several minutes followed this remark.
"They will promise a hundred things
before election, but after election they
will not carry out one promise. Ore
gon has found a way to elect senators
by direct vote of the people, and that
way Is the best It is going 10 siayia,
despite the machinations of politicians.
Vote against every man who has failed V
to subscribe to Statement No. 1. (Ap
plause). !
People Tired of Bosses.
"We are tired of being Dossed. We
want to be our own bosses, and the di
rect primary gives us the power to be
our own bosses. The things Theodore
Roosevelt Is fighting In New York are
the things the assembly is trying to
resurrect In Oregon. It doesn't make
any difference to what party a man
belongs, so long as he is honest .
"Look what the machine politicians
did in San Francslco., And look what
Francis J. Heney uncovered. Yet If the
Portland Railway. Light A Power Co.
would tell Its story, that of Patrick Cal
houn would be a Sunday school yarn
beside it These corporation do pot
lotik to posterity. They Work along the
lines of the old gambler, who said he
didn't care what happened so long as It
dldnt happen to him."
In a short address. County Judge Clee-
ton,. candidate for reelection, slapped
the assembly hard. - ,
"We will retain the direct primary
and Statement No. 1 and we will not al
low our right to be Interfered with by
corporation lawyers. It Is my request
and my prayer that you defeat every
on.e who appears on the assembly ticket"
Judge Dlmlck said: "It Is our duty
to stand by the direct primary and
Statement No. 1, and the Republican
plank that held out the promise that
we would.

are beginning to register for the rau
election. With the approach of the pri
maries, interest Is growing in the elec
tion The Republicans In ' convention
assembled nominated a full ticket The
entire party Is not favorable to the con
vention recommendations. W. S. Wor
den, local manager of the Klamath De

agent for the Southern Paclflo, was
recommended for county Judge, Al
ready A. L, Leavltt one of the old line
Republicans and one of the opponents
of the removal of the conrthouse to the
Hot Springs addition, has announced
himself as a candidate subject to the
primary election. Judge J. B, Griffith
. . , , . i ... i
candidate for reelection. The Demo
crats were desirous of placing him In
nomination, but he has positively re
fused to become a candidate. It is like
ly that J. P. Lea, at present county as
sessor, and one of the old Democratic
war horses, will be the Democratic
nominee. It Is assured that the main
Issue will be the removal of the courthouse.
Sheriff W. B. Barnes, Republican, Is
a candidate to succeed himself. Opposed
to him will be Jasper Bennett one of
the strongest Democrats in the county.
Barnes is the convention nominee, and
It is likely that ha will have "no opposi
tion in the primaries. Judge George
Noland will be pitted against H. I
Benson for the office of circuit Judge.
Both men are well known Jurists, and
each has a large personal following.
The Democrat are looking with favor
upon the announcement of Oswald West
for governor. He Is well and favorably
known In this section. Klamath county
is about 250 Republican, but generally
the Democrats fill more than half of the
best offlcea At present the Democrats
have the county judge, commissioners,

Appeals to the hotel manager resulted
In the nuctlon of a coarse Amerloan

45,000 tons and each Is 1000 feet long.
"Antwerp In Belgium, 'Rotterdam In
Holland, Hamburg In Germany, all have
elaborate systems of ooncretelbullt pub
lic docks. It Is their life to have public
docks. They are the great ports of the
old world. France has. neglected the devel
opment of her ports. ITrance, conse
quently, as a nation Is retrograding and
in 26 years France will no longer be
known as a woVWbwer. France Is
breaking down. These northern ports
of which I have spoken - handle the
business of France.
Germans Control Shipping;.
"It is a cause of embarrassment to
the French that the Germans, their
arch-enemies, should practically control
their shipping, but they can do nothing.
They have let thoir opportunities slip.
The people of France built no docks,
and failed to Improve their harbors be
cause they feared taxation. France Is
becoming poorer In a way that alarms
the far-seeing men of that country.-
"Holland, a little country about as
big as Multnomah county, has spent
minions in building the docks of Rot
terdam and Is prospering so that Hol
land's capitalists have money to loan for
development enterprises Jn this region.
"Such Is the history throughout Eli
rope. The cities that have developed
their harbors prosper, grow greater!
In wealth and In population and In
prestige. Those that neglect suffer and
retrograde. The lesson Is pertinent for
Portland. Should we here depend upon
private or corporate Interests to build
our docks we would first of all never
have a uniform system. It would be
all ,hodge podge, Hero a wooden dock,
there a brick wharf and at another place
a concrete structure.
Fireproof Concrete Best
"In European cities there are nothing
but fireproof concrete docks. Experi
ence has proven that these are the
best, and really the only practicable
structure for uniformity and service.
There are always landing docks and
lying-in docks conveniently arranged.
The oontrasH)fetween Portland's shabby,
wooden waterfront and the splendidly
built concrete wharves of Europe Is
utugimuw bi ursi mgni, oui u is no i
Joke from a business point of view.
We will never have here better business
than our wharves. Portland with the
great outlying country tributary and
only partly developed, has greater rea
son for building to become a great sea
port than any European oity.
"If Portland builds publlo docks Port
land will become a leader In the world's
seaports, a leader among Paclflo coast
cities, attracting bigger business, big
ger population and many more railroads.
If Portland neglects to obtain oontrol
of the water front; If Portland falls to
build fireproof concrete publlo docks.
Portland will not be a seaport at all.
Portland will be a Joke."
