CONSPIRACY CHARGED
Husband Deserted Desertion after
four months of married life was al
leged by Therese B. Lupton in a di
vorce suit which resulted In the grant
ing of tha divorce yesterday by Cir
cuit Judge Oatens. They were married
in New York City January 3, 1913, and
she alleged he left her In Portland in
May 1913.
Ho Juvenile Delinquents. Juvenile
delinquents were a missing Quantity
yesterday and Judge Oatens, of the
Juvenile court, held no session of that
court. . The many opportunities efr
toys and girls to use up superfluous
energy in harmless ways during the
summer months is said to be the
cause of their good behavior.

Personal Liberty Advocates.
Portland, Aug. 16. To the Editor of
The Journal The Journal theatre pro
gram contains a long "paid adv."
against prohibition, signed "Liberal
League of Oregon," their slogan be
ing "Personal Liberty." These "paid
advertisements" stare one in the face
frequently these days.
Then Mrs. Dunlway tells us in the
Oregonian: "When the American flag
received its baptism during the Amer
ican revolution the word liberty was
stamped full across It with indelible
Ink."
I remember hearing Emma Goldman
speak on the subject of "Personal Lib
erty." She denounced schools, claim
ing they hampered "personal liberty;"
urged parents never to correct their
children, as by so doing they would
stunt their precious "personal lib
erty. She assailed the marriage tie;
said one's personal liberty was at stake
If one could not leave one person and
take up with another at will. It was
soon after the assassination of our
revered McKlnley. 8he lauded Col-
gosz, stated he was only expressing
his "personal liberty." She said she
had never killed anyone, as she was
not of that temperament, but one
should tie true always to one's im
pulses, and committing murder was the
way by which some people expressed
their highest instincts.
"Oh, Liberty! What crimes are com
mitted in thy name."
I am glad that if prohibition carries
in Oregon, it will not be because of
"paid" anything. It will be because
the majority of voters In Oregon have
had a vision of life from the highest
viewpoint. It may not win this time, but
but it will some day, because "right
Is right, since God is God;" and just
as equal suffrage and more equitable
labor laws are bound to come through
out our land because they are Just,
so must the legalised liquor traffic
slink away, because it is a product of
"man's Inhumanity to man.
MRS. B. R. CARTER.
Time o Capitalize Scenery.
Portland. Aug. 15. To the Editor of
The Journal I was very much inter
ested in tha article In your paper of
August 11, by Charles Coopey, entitled:
Now Is the Proper Time for This
State to Exploit Its Scenery." I would
first like to congratulate The Journal
upon tha great work it is doing in ad
vocating tha building of roads and the
opening up of our scenery. I quite
agree with Mr. Coopey: "Now Is the
time to exploit our scenery, and would
like to say more that by not doing it
and getting the tourist this way we are
losing the opportunity of making a
great amount of money, and he is right
when he says that tourists are tha best
paying crop. I know it.
I was born in France and lived there
quite a number of years. I have seen
the tourists from America and other
parts of tha world traveling through
our country, going on to Switzerland,
tne Knine and other places, spending
large amounts of money. It occurred
to me that with good Judgment in de
vising proper accommodations and at
tractions for the tourists, backed by
honest advertisements, it would be pos
sible to Induce thousands of tourists
to visit our beautiful country, which
compares favorably with Switzerland,
the Rhine and other European places.
In view of obtaining this result, we
must build mountain trails, aerial
roads, cable roads, etc., to our moun
tains, have boats on our rivers, and, in
fact, tha mora attractive we make our
resorts, the more people will come
and spend their money with us, pro
vided we give them comforts at a rea
sonable price.
I have traveled a great deal in my
life and I do not think, taking all in
all, you can find more beautiful scen
ery anywhere than you can in this
state. . If tha scenery of the Columbia
river were as near to London, Paris,
Berlin, New York and other large cities
as it is. to Portland, there would be
many thousands of beautiful homes
built along its banks; but now that The
Journal has started to show the people
what we have I believe and I sincerely
hope we shall soon be able to develop
at least part of it. It should be borne
in mind that absolute honesty in pro
moting a proposition of this kind is
the only guarantee of success, where
as exaggeration and misrepresentation
are bound to drive away the prospec
tive Investors and work havoc on our
beautiful country.
Again thanking The Journal for the
Interest it takes in these progressive
enterprises, I am. Tours respectfully.

The Portland police department, sev
eral hotels and tha Northern Paclflo
Terminal company are charged with
conspiring to stifle competition among
taxi cab companies nd to throw all
business to the Oregon Taxlcab com
pany in an answer filed yesterday by
Pete Hendricks and Alfred Jacobsen,
doing business as Hendricks Brothers,
and William H. Franklin, William J.
Scanlon, Albert Gruman and B. F.
Doan to a suit filed recently by the
Oregon Taxlcab company. The de
fendants ask $5000 damages.
The Oregon company sued to re- j
train the defendants from using the
color or the word "Brown" in con-1
nection with their taxlcab business.
Damages of $5000 and an accounting
for all moneys earned since the de
fendants began using brown were also
asked. The Oregon company alleged
that the defendants gave Inferior serv
ice. The defendants allege that tha Ore
gon company entered into a conspiracy
with E. Lyons, manager of the ter
minal company, by which it secured
the sole right to take its cars within
a white line painted on tha street
about 25 feet f.om the curb by the
depot and that when tha defendants
attempted to assert their rights as
citizens of the city the depot police
would threaten arrest.
Another allegation is that tickets
for the Oregon company are sold on
the O.-W. R. & N., Southern Pacific
and Northern Pacific trains while the
defendants are denied the right. Lyons
is alleged to have directed tenants of
the block south of the depot owned by
the company to refuse to permit the
defendants to use their telephones or
to install telephones under pain of
revocation of their leases.
The Imperial hotel is named and it
is charged that representatives of the
hotel threaten perscnal violence to
drivers of the defendants' cars when
they would bring or take passengers
to or from the sidewalk in front of
the hotel.
Meter rates of the Oregon company
are also attacked, the defendants al
leging that tha eompanya ratea are
not uniform for similar services and
that there la discrimination between
Individual patrons of tha Oregon com
pany's patrona.
Tha defendants allege that the com
pany has no exclusive right to brown
and that tha company's articles of in
corporation do not even provide that
it may perform tha cervices which it
is now doing.

Any man who runs for office sub
mits his entire record to the scrutiny
of hia opponents and of the public.
rne people are entiuea to anow tne
truth touching the past and present
of each candidate.
Clifton Nesmlth MeArthur Is a
grandson of James W. Nesmlth, who
was a United States senator ana con
gressman from this state: ne is a
graduate of the Oregon State univer
sity, late speaker of the Oregon Jegis
leture, and a gentleman of pleasing
appearance and many good quail tiee.
But when this much is said, praise
must cease and honest criticism must
begin.
"Pat HcArthnr, Plpefs Mand."
On the very threshold of his career
Mr. McArthur, then reporter on the
Oregonian, allied hlmeelf with Edgar
B. riper, managing eaiior or trait
paper. While employee on tne ure-
gonian in 19U6, MCArtnur was nirea
by Detective W. J. Burns to aid in
securing Jurors in tne tana rraua
cases. .Notes maae Dy Burns at tne
time, and now on file at Washington,
show that he repeatedly referred to
Pat McArthur. npers rnena, as
having aided him In selecting the
names of Jurors from Polk and other
counties to go into the original box of
600. Burns recites tnat .MCArtnur
waa. a reporter on the Oregonian. The
Oregonian was ror conviction, ann no-
tlle to the Mitchell Taction. Tnrouirn
out the record. Burns refers to Mc
Arthur as his trusted agent, and as
Piper s friend."
That MeArthur well knew that what
he did in helping to nil the onginai
lurv hot with the names of prejudiced
men was wrong, is conclusively bihjwu
bv his own-sworn admissions. Re
cently one of the defendants who wss
convicted by tne jury so seiecteu, ww
lard N. Jones, applied for and received
a pardon on the ground that he could
rot Dosslbly have had a fair trisl
before such a Jury. McArthur was
called upon for an explnnatlon of the
Fart he took in ine seiecuon oi mo
ury, and his affidavit, now a public
record at Washington, admits his con
nection with the transaction, but
pleada that he participated in it with
great reluctance and under duress and
after much persuasion.
The Attorney General's better.
The letter of the attorney general
to President Taft, dated May 10, 1912,
ccntains this language:
"Mr. McArthur, it is to be remem
bered, wss one of Burns' agents, and
furnished many of the reports which
re on file in the department, lie
claims, however, that ha did so with
treat reluctance and under duress and
after much persuasion. He does not
stata tha nature of the duress, but, I
am informed, is willing to do so If
you insist Respectfully.
"GEORGE W. WICKEKSHAM,
"Attorney General."
To uhderatand exactly what Burns
did, with the aid of McArthur, it is
necessary to know what tha original
box of 600 waa The law requires
that two men of opposite political
faith, to-wtt, a Jury commissioner
named by the court, and tha clerk of
tbe court, should select tha namas of
several hundred citizens from tha
body of the state and put them into a
box. These Jurors were supposed to
represent all ahades of opinion, and
were not supposed to be tampered
with, Interrogated or investigated in
any manner, whatsoever. From the
box in question the law required that
the clerk of the court should draw
out the names of Jurors to be sum
moned Into court as needed.
Not until the Jurors arrived in court
was either the prosecution or defense
entitled to question them on any sub
ject. Por each case some 0 Jurors
were to ba summoned, and when they
arrived In court each side then had
ample opportunity to Interrogate them
In the presence of the Judge, to ascer
tain .whether or not they -era duly
qualified. The law had provided these
safeguards so as to Insure tha trial
or eacn aeienaani oy m. jury oi ni
peera, aummoned without discrlmlna
hnn from tha body of tha state. The
right, when accused of crime, to be
tried before a fair and impartial Jury
is the most sacred heritage of English
speaking people.
Bow jury was Selected.
But Mr. Burns, with the aid of Mc
Arthur, "Piper's friend." deliberated
set this right at naught. Burns and
his confederates secretly took advan
tage of the defendants by having placed
in the original box of 00 only the
names of men known to ba hostile to
the accused and predisposed to convict.
This gave the prosecution a tremend
ous advantage, which was illegal, and
left tha -defendants no reasonable
chance to be acquitted. Evidence la
nearly always conflicting, and when
the Jury is biased they usually decide
according to their preconceived notions.
In order to fill the original Jury box
with the names of prejudiced men.
Bums secured typewritten copies of
the lists of proposed Jurors which tha
various county clerks had sent in to
tha jury commissioner and ths clerk of
tha united States court. Burns then
sen McArthur and his other agents
into tha several counties to investigate

the men whose names appeared on
these lists. The names of all men
found to ba prejudiced against the ac
cused wars allowed to go into tbe orig
inal box, while tha names of all men
found to be fair, or friendly to tha ac
cused, were not allowed to go into the
original box. ,
The Jury commissioner and tha clerk
of the federal court should not have al
lowed Bums and his agents to dictate
the names which went into the orig
inal box; and it is possible that they
aid not know it. The attorney general.
In his letter to the president, says that
Burns probably got In his work by hav
ing a deputy in tha Lnitea states court
strike off the names of tho furors not
desired by him before the lists were
turned in to the Jury commissioner and
the clerk of tha court. In any event,
the records show that every name fa
vorably reported on by Burns and his
sgents went Into the original box
while every name adversely reported
on bv them waa excluded.

This is the same Mr. McArthur who
Joined hands with Mr. Piper and Perd-
inana iieea, in the late primary, tvi
defeat me for the regular nomination
of my party for reelection to uongret.
Mr. MCArtnur s past record and pres
ent affiliations show beyond the pr
adventure of a doubt that he would,
if elected, eland with the corporations
and the millionaires.
In 1910 Mr. McArthur was not only
one of the prime movers in the hold
ing of the asaeinlily" In Portland, but
ne received the nomination ot that
assembly for st.ttt senator. Mr.
McArthur was defeated by Oeorg W.
Joseph, the direct primary nominee.
Between the years ltrlO and 191S
Mr. McArthur was out of office, end
whom did he yerve nrlvate life?
He served as prfSi-leftt of the Hood
Klver Cias & Electric company, or
ganized hy tho Pui !flc: Power Light
company of Portland for the purpo
of freezing out an independent ut Hood
Kiver.
KoArthur's Corporation Oonneotloas.
The Pacific Power & LiKht company
of Portland Is a large holding corpor
ation. Guy W. Talbut is its president,
and Lewis A. McArthur, brother of the
candidate for congress, is its assistant
general manager. The Pacific Powar
A Light company is a 1 1, 000, 000 cor
poration, organised under the laws of
the state of Maine. It in turn. Is
owned by the American Power & Light
company, alfo orgnnised under tha
laws of the tnte of Maine.
Although only a subsidiary of the
American Power Si Light company, th
Pacific Power A.- Light company owns
the electric light companies at Tha
Dalles. Pendleton, Dayton, Wash.: Pas
co, and Vnncouver, and it Is raridljr
acquiring other holdings. It also own
water wnrks and gs rlants In Oregon,
Washington und ilaho. It owns the
street railway at Walla Walla, and the
irtterurban line from that place to
Freewater, Oregon.
Many Franchises Grabbed.
This corporation has acquired fran
chises at Richland, Toppenlsh. Waits

Clarkston, Grandvirw, l.owden. Moxeo

tisements of th Pacific Power A Light
company boastlngly assert that all of
its franchise are "free from objec-'
tionable restrictions," and that -eome of
them extend as far into the future as
1981. How encouraging to th public.
The gross earnlnrs of this company for
1911 were $1,288,059. Its expanse
and taxes were only $3,74, leaving
its net earnings fJ2i.S85. In other
words, nearly 10 per cent of it In
come was' clear profit, to be distrib
uted as "interest and dividends' among
its bond holders and share holders.

McArthur recommended that a cer

box, because he waa a "Regular yellow

convict any Kepublican on sight." but
he wanted the entire citizenship of
Columbia county excluded from serv

on th part of th officers f th
MeArthur at Xood Blvsr. .
In 1911 th Paclflo Power A Light
company bought the Electric Light
company at Hood Rivr. Acltisen up
there, Nell C. Evans, now residing at
S16 East Thirtieth street. Portland. .
organized an Independent company and
began cutting rates. Th original com
pany did not wish to bring its rat
down, because, in order to make things
look right, it would have to do tha
same In other towns in Oregon, whr
it did not have competition. But th
Pacific Power A Light company hit
upon the schem of organising th
"Hood River Gas ft Electric Company,"
as a subsidiary with which to fight
th independent, and It put in C N.
McArthur as president of this sub
sidiary company. That McArthur
served as its prealdent as late as 1911
is proved by the annual report of th
corporation on file at Halem. Th
Independent company made terms with
the subsidiary company, ahd h Pa
cific Power A Light company now
controls the situation at Hood River.
Not only do I have the right to giv
to the public Mr. McArthur' record,
but I would be unworthy to bold th
position of United States eon grass
man if I did not do so unflinchingly.
I have undertaken certain work for
