thebunch you defied four years ago
has Whipped, or in some way brought
you into subjection; that the reasons
T6u had four years ago for opposing
hem were even more pronounced at
the late convention; thai they slapped
Yu In the face by refusing to let you
- appear before them and then kicked
yu Into the discard by Ignoring your
offer to compromise on Lodge.
The party which followed you four
year ago' to the numper of mtinong
promptly answered these insults by
Aiming you as their lender In a fight
to the finish with these arrogant
f. gents of plutooracy. One more beat
ng by the party you created four
year ago would finish them. The
Progressive Idea must prevail If we
re not cowards, or purchasable.

Are you going to abandon the child

more accurately than did the Progres
sives. Certainly you were the last
man expected to raise- the white flag
the last your followers expected to
prove a "quitter" the last they be
lieved would "pocket an Insult;' the
last they supposed would "turn the
Other cheek;" the very last man In the
country whom It was thought would
play the role of "mollyooddle" and re

even a protest. But why need you add

Is Against Kasty Action.
The refusal of the house committee
On appropriations to aHow an item of
$1,000,000 for th establishment of
submarine bases along both the At
lantic and the Pacific coasts and the
substituted provision creating a com
mission to investigate the subject
fives almost positive indication that
the present congress will not authorise
the establishment of a naval base on
the Columbia river, according to a re
cent letter written by Senator Cham
berlain to Wallace R. Struble of Port
land. The senator points out the naval
base situation clearly and concisely
and bfcows that congress Is unwilling
to make appropriation for the estab
lishment Of a naval base until recom
menced by the navy department, which
in ium will make no recommendation
until its experts have reported on the
subject.
Senator Chamberlain's Letter.
Thi senator's letter to Mr. Struble
follows:
"I received in diss course your
telegram of the 3rd instant, and wired
you as follows:
"Your telegram in reference to
naval base received. It is as unfair
and unjust in Its statements as you
oould possibly make it and seems
to be based on further misrepresenta
tion, and misinformation from some
source. My personal difference with
a man like Harley who misrepresents
conditions and undertakes to play
politics has not and will not affect
my zeal for naval base at mouth of
Columbia. I stand for It and will
continue to work for It notwithstand

as to my attitude. Af& Writing you

"This telegram I now confirm. -Wot
Hegloctinr Official ittitus.
"Tour telegram assumes that I ant
neglecting my Official duties here,
and particularly too wishes of tho
people of Oregon with resveot to the
establishment of a naval bass at the
mouth of tho Columbia- river. The
assumption is entirely unfounded and
must be baaed on tho misrepresenta
tions which Mr. Harley has been
makingthrough addresses delivered by
him while n Oregon before clvio
bodies and in what purported to be
Interviews given out by him as to
the attitude of Senator Lane and my
self with respect to the matter con
cerning which you wired me.
"Nobody else who has over been
here,o far as I am advised, has had
tho hardihood and a sufficient disre
gard for the truth to make the as
sertion either that Lane or 2 looked
upon the establishment of a naval
Or a submarine base ftt the mouth of
the Columbia river as a joke or are
apatheUo in our attitude toward it.
Vary Department Against Action.
"The fact is, we ha' both been
as active as it was possible to be in
the matter In the face Of tho atti
tude of the navy department here,
which has so far been unwilling to
lecommcnd an appropriation for the
establishment of a naval ban either
at the mouth of. the Columbia rlvef
or elsewhere. 1 was perfectly frank
with Mr. Harley when he first came
on here as to the legislative situa
tion "1 did not think it would he pos
sible at this session Of congress to
get through a hill appropriating
money for he establishment of a
naval base, and my repeated efforts
along this line have so fAr failed to
convince the secretary of the navy
or any of those connected with the
department of the propriety of ex
pending a large sum rmoney for
me esiaDiisnmeni oi sum e. rang m ,
ahy point along either coast without
first having a report trom experts
on tho subject.
Kefers to 1900 Beport.
"The nearest approach that the de
partment has ever come to ft favor
able consideration of such a proposi
tion was in their report of 1900, and
if you w.li read that carefully you
will find that that was not a recom
mendation for the establishment it a
base at the mouth of the Columbia
river, but merely a suggestion that
under certain conditions a naval base
ought to be established at that point.
"I have had this matter up more
than once, and long before the people
of Oregon sent any one here In fhe
interest of the matter Introduced a
bill bearing on this very subject. My
frankness t Mr. Harley, I assume,
led him to conclude I was opposed
to the wishes of the people of the
northwest on this subject, but I have
tried to be. frank in all these matters
and not to indulge in statements
Which would mislead the people as
to actual conditions here.
Many Courtesies Shown Xariey.
"I introduced Mr. Harley to the
chairman of the naval affairs com
mittee. Honorable Benjamin R. Till
man. The latter was of the opinion
that the proper place to consider it
waa before the house committee, be
fore whom the naval appropriation
bin was pending.
"Notwithstanding that. Senator
Lane and I secured a promise from
Senator Swanson of the naval affairs
committee that he would endeavor to
get the naval committee of the sen
ate together and accord to Mr. Har
ley a hearing, although he, too, shared
the opinion of Senator Tillman that
the matter ought first to bo taken up
with thp house committee. 1 am in
formed that when- Senator Lane suc
ceeded in arranging a time" for the
hearing before the senate committee
Mr. Harley was out Of the city.
Daniels Makes Recommendation.
"Secretary Daniels in his estimates :
for naval expenditures this year rc-
otnmended an appropriation of $1.-,
0O0.000 for the establishment of IS
submarine bases along the coast line, '
two. of which were to be established
on the. Paeiflo coast The committee
of the house refused to allow this
estimate, and therefore no appropria
tion is contained in the house me&a-
ure. '
' I do not know what efforts Mr. j
llawley or any Of Oregon's represents-i
tires made in the house to secure an
amendment to the bill when It Was i
pending there. It Is sufficient to say, !
however, that no appropriation is con- :
tained in the house bill for that pur- j
pose, but the bill does eontaln ft pro- !
vision creating a 'commission of five :
officers on the active list of Officers
of the navy not below the rank of com- '
mander to Investigate and report at
the beginning of the next regular sea
slon of congress, if practicable, and if
not. as soon thereafter as practicable,
as to the necessity, desirability and ad
visability of establishing an additional
navy yard or naval station on the Pa- I
clflc coast or the United States,
Aeport to Deaifnate Snitasie site.
' 'And if such a navy yard or naval
station be recommended as heceeeery ,
and advisable, said report shall desig
nate the most suitable. Site and the
estimated cost thereof, together with
a detailed statement of the reasons for
such designation and the nature Aha
scope of the activities for naval pur
poses Of sueti yard or station In ar-!
riving at such designation, the com- '
mission shall take Into consideration
all strategical and otner .military con
siderations, aS Well as all industrial
elements necessary for the economical
and successful operation ef stch a yard
or station, inciuaing local conditions
as to labor and material.
" 'Said report shall also contain an
estimated cost Of the necessary i build
ings, shops, piers, sea wails, and equip
ment of said yard ot etattoh, together
with the estimated annual coat of

Host That Can at bone.
"in my upinioti, that is the most
that ean be accomplished at this ses
sion. After experts have examined
liitO the situation and have made a
report, if it is favorable toward the
establishment either of a naval base
br a submarine station at the tnouth
of the Columbia river, it is very prob
able we may. be. able to secure an ap
propriation at the neat session of con
Kress er alter the report has been

"In the meantime, let me assure) you
that the keeping of ah agent on the

ple Of large sums of money will not
assist the situation, nor will tho course
ot misrepresentation as to the attitude
of my colleague arid myself do any
good toward the accomplishment of
the wishes of Our people.

The Ford Motor company of Detroit
was yesterday denied a temporary in
junction against Benjamin E. Boone

It was asked hat the court enjoin
the Boone company from the us of the
Ford name or trade mark In telling
cars, and from representing itself to
a Ford agent.
Judge Bean said that It had not been
shown that the Boone company , had
represented itself to be a Ford agent,
and that what it had done was to repre
sent that It wag Belting Ford cars.
The Ford company also Suited that
the Boone' company be restrained from
using the Ford trade mark on oil cans;
but Judge Bean held that the Ford
company itself had not shown that it
was entitled so to use the trade mark.
The charge that the Boone company
had obtained Ford care by subterfuge,
so that they might be sold to foster
the Impression that the company was
a Ford agent, was dismissed by Judge
Bean's saying that it had been shown
that Ford agents who were overstocked
with cars had come to the Boone com
pany to take the tars Off their hands.
The first suit between the two com
panies was In circuit court? Tho Ford
company filed a suit to eenjoln the
Boone company from selling Fords at
less than list price. On the Bootie
company's demurrer. Judge Gantenbeln
dismissed the suit.
