Republican Nominee for United
States Senator' Says His
Campaign' Has Been Con
ducted Openly,
, . Upon bin return front, eouthernOre
fori yesterday. Bailing, Republican nom
ineefor United States senator, Issued a
statement in reply to Senator Bourne's
recent reflections .upon the Selling can.
. dltlacy. He denies violation of the cor
rupt practices act in his primary cam
palgn end arraign Bourne for being a
candidate) after defeat at the primaries
' and at the Bull Moose convention.
. . The statement says irf, part:
"Senator Boiyn la his statement to
:, the voters charges me with having ob
talned the Republican nomination for
United States senator unfairly, through
violation of the letter and spirit of, the
corrupt "practlcea "act. He also, cora-
plln that the character of campaign
conducted by uie 'nullifies any obliga
tion of the citlien to abide by the re
sult of the primary election.' But he
does not specify any instance in which
the corrupt practices act was violated
by me.
' "Probably the Basis of his insinuation
was the fact that, prior to tho formal
announcement of my candldaoy, 1 sent
generally throughout the state letters to
.voters requesting an expression from
them as to the ratu-aaentatlon Oraa-on
I
lywas receiving from its senior senator.
r Tha raatinnaa waa an nvrwli,lmlnff
, against the retention-of Senator Bourne
,. and so general in urging me to oppose
him for th nomination that J became a
candidate and was successful in the pri
- mary election.
Campaign Kale Openly.
"I want it distinctly and positively
understood that every letter and piece
of campaign literature sent out by me
or In my behalf in the primary cam
paign was carried by a postage stamp
Which was paid for, and that my cam
; palga in this and in every other respect
was - carried eat in -strict conformity
'' with the letter and spirit of the cor
rupt practices act.
"At the same time, over 170,000 pieces
of mail were sent out by Senator Bourne
under government frank. The average
weight of his letters youlU have cost a
private citlsen four cents postage on
, each, or a total of $10,000.
Bourne's Tariff Record. '
"The character of the campaign con
ducted by me and of which Senator
-Bourne complains consisted chiefly of
calling the attention of the voters to
Ms attitude and votes on the Payne
Aidricti tariff bill, in which he consist
ently voted with Aldrlch to maintain
the present high tariff. He voted with
Aldrlch and against Senator La Follette
about 11 times In all. Three times he
voted for a reduction in schedules, one
. ef which was on wool, one of the prin
cipal products of this state, and he was
absent over 70 times. Senator Bourne
voted insistently and consistently to
maintain the .present high tariff on cot
ton and cotton goods, neither of which
is produced here, possibly for the pro
tection of his New England cotton mills.
"'Senator Bourne alao says: 'My can
dldacy is based upon a call direct from
the people. The duty of citizenship is
, responsiveness to the popular will when
clearly expressed.' I am slightly in
doubt as to which of his several candi
dacies Senator Bourne refers In his
, statement. In the primary election last
i April, Senator Bourne was a candidate
i and was rejected. In that election he
received 25,621 votes out ef a total Re
; publican vote of 70,104. Senator Bourne
-i "Was also a candidate before the Pro-
grtselve party state, convention for Its
7 nomination and was again defeated. He
i now appears as an independent candi
date. In doing so he repudiates the
direct primary law.
"Call Prom the People."
"The present 'call from the people'
was secured by an inspired committee
through the employment of professional
' petition circulators who were compen
sated 6 cents for each voter's signature,
"btnutor Bourne takes to himself
! credit of having passed on S47t.863.19S.64
: In appropriations. According to the
f Senator's own claim as to appropriations
j obtained by htm for Oregon, this state
, has secured less than one one-hundredth
; part of this total. In this connection,
j however, Senator Bourne makes no ref
t erence to the fact that either through
negieet or inattention, he lost to Oregon
J Its fair and Just share of the reclama
i Ion fund, amounting to several million
, dollars.
Here Mr. Selling comments at length
; on tha distribution uf funds for recla
j matlon, comparing the amounts received
by Oregon with those of other states.
X I Me proceeds:
Platform Is Ideal.
- t "The platform of Senator Bourne is
, , an Ideal one to which any high minded
American citlsen can subscribe, but the
worthof platforms- -and " promises " can
only be estimated by past performances.
Any. man's title to progresstveness
rests upon his actions. The" Congres
sional Record will ever show that Sena
tor Bourne did not vote for a revision
of the tariff downward as demanded
by the people of Oregon.
"Included In the platform announced
by Senator Bourne la the declaration
'good wages muke good citizens.' Is the
wage scale paid operatives in Senator
Bourne's cotton mills thj standard he

San Francisco, Oct. !. With Al
Kaufman determined to, .make his tsst
stand In the boxing game, hoping to off
set past reverses, the fans hire looked
for a hard gruelling battle when Kauf
man and Luther MuCart- meet In Cof
froth's arena this afternoon. McCarty,
a giant in ststure, ruled -a 10 to 8 fa
verite, although there was considerable
support for Kaufman.
Today's battle aroused Interest par
ticularly because it is believed the win
ner would be sent' against Jim Flynn
or At Palter, and the victor of tht
latter bout would be named to contest
Jack Johnson's world title.
Two preliminaries were scheduled to
precede the main1 event. Dick Wayne
and Jeff Perry, lightweights, were
on for six rounds, and Percy Cove and
Ray Baughman for 10 rounds at the
featherweight limit.
The show waa scheduled for 2 p. m.,

NEW EVIDENCE CLAIMED
IN LEW T0RBET CASE
Submitting an affidavit signed by Gu
Ihle who swears that he saw a large
butcher knife In the hand of Margaret
Bellalre following her killing. Attorneys
King and Williams have filed a motion
for a new trial for Lew Tor bet, convict
ed of murder In the second degree for
shooting Mrs. Bellalre. The motion will
be argued before Circuit Judge Qatens
who heard the trial of the 18-year-old
murderer, but' there is little prospect
that a new trial will be granted as the
evidence waa found so soon after the
completion of the trial It has aroused
suspicion that it is being submitted
merely as a pretext for a new trial.
Torbet is still held in the county jail
and will not be taken to the peniten
tiary until this motion has been dis
posed of. ' The crime of which he was
found guilty was the murder of the
mother of a girl whom he had wronged,
at her apartments. Twelfth and Stark
streets, April 29. Self-defense was the
defense but was not proved to the sat
isfaction of the Jury. Following the
killing the boy posed as a hero and thor
oughly enjoyed the, notoriety which he
gained. His sentence was life impris
onment, as provided by law.
Crown Princess la Opera.

Munich. Oct. 12 Signer Toselli, the

CMd storage Petaluma, Cel.. eggs are
being imported Into the Pacific north
west and are said to being placed upon
the markets aa extra selected fresh
stock-..
The appearance oZothe eras, wnicn
are all white, gives them a standing
that the regular run of real fresh local
stock does not have, but the auallty is
no better than the regular ice house
stock, no matter whero it comes from.
It is reported that Importers of this
stock are not only receiving the full
value of local ranch eggs, but are jret
tlna a premium because they are sold
aa selected. .
While the scheme may tie successfully
worked one time upon a buyer, it is
not Ukelv that repeat orders will come,
because the same class of stock can be
purchased about loo a dosen less; but
the latter are sold for what they really
are, and not selected ranch.
As high a 18o a dosen la being ob
tained In a very limited way for fresh
ranch eggs, but the bulk of the busi
ness is aiound 36c. Those that handle
the bulk of the fresh . egg shipments
to this market are not asking above
3ti7c. and would be glad to sell big
wis at tne to mark.
An amuslna thlnar occurred in the tug
trade yeaUrdav. wheh one of the cream
ery -interests "came down to get some
uf those S6c fresh eggs quoted by The
Journal." He was shown the eggs and
the express tags and the dealer offered
to candle the stock carefully, but he
didn't buy. That is the way with all
the boosters of eggs at this time they
talk hls.li urices for the local product
but do not care to buy. They make their
money by shoving the local market for
fresh atock above a- basis where the
average consumer can purchase; then
sell, nun cold storage stock; at a. price
ne can anora.
CHEESE GAINS IN STRENGTH

CHICKEN MAKKET IS GOOD
At the closinr of the week a very
good tone is shown In the chicken trade
along the street. Receipts have been
lighter than expected and this has given
the trade a better chance to clean up
some of the former surplus.
HOGS SELL AT GOOD PRICE
While no change is shown in the price
of country killed hoes along Front
street, the market is holding rather
steady with top stuff moving quite
readily at 11c a pound. Receipts have

Today waa a hellda In American
grain markets and while some business
was reported ia the Interior, trade was
generally nominal, prices In effect are
yrucuuaiiy ui name as yesieraay.
The firmnesa in the hay. trado is not
now confined to any oue class of offer
ings but all lines are now showing much
strength. While It is true that the de
mand for fsncy timothy is most pro
nounced, grain hays are sought and in
a few instances higher prices are being
forced.
The car shortage found the trade here
badly In need of supplies. There was
no inclination to take hold previous to
that time, therefore stocks on hand here
were the smallest in years. This hai
forced heavier buying in the country.
The situation is now such that it is
likely that buyers will overbuy their
requirements, which nirfy result in a
temporary setback later.
The coarse grain markets are aoralr
nally quoted at previous figures.

DEALS KEPT A SECRET
Buyers Are Not Inclined to Tell of
Deals Especially When They Are
Made at Higher Range; Dealers
Lose Money on Contract.
Considerable business is passing In
the hop market for ordinary quality but
several sales of fancy goods were re
ported during the last 24 hours at an ad
vance of He over previous figures. Only
one could be confirmed, that being the
renter of T. A. Riggs at Ricreal, who
sold 200 bales to Brown of Salem at
19c a pound. While this price was paid
in several sections, dealers are keeping
the details quiet. '
The buying of hops at higher price is
generally for the account of those who
had sold to eastern Interests and had
covered by contracting with growers.
While they took In these contracts, few
of them reached the grade specified. The
result is that the contractors were forced
to purchase other hops to fill their or
ders and take their losses on the ones
they accepted on their contracts. Quite
a tew 25Q contracts were taaen in oy
dealers but the quality was not good
enough to fill their own orders and
they toog a loss 01 v or sc Dy selling

Colorado Is now in tha midst of Us
potato shinning season, and this : has
hurt the business that has been passing
between Portland and the southwest.
Potatoes are being sold at Greeley,
Cole., to the southwest at a price that
would mean that dealers here would be
compelled to offer at 40a per cental In
order to compete. This would mean
that producers would, not receive mor
than 30o per cental at shipping point,
a price that Is out of the question, even
in such a year as the present one. .
There has been much talk that most
of the Colorado potato crop was ruined
by blight, but latest advices from there
do not carr out these reports. Not
only has that state plenty of potatoes
for its own use. but in order to move
Us crop- it is naming tho lowest prices
In years for outside shipments.
The car shortage, together with the
Inability of the trade here to compete
with the lower prices offered at other
producing sections, has stifled the trade.

tion of service."' ' i.,..,. ,:-.;..

written:
