Will Re Senator Chamberlain
The following from Washington
means the election of Gov. Chamber
lain sure:
"I am glad; to meet you, Governor
Chamberlain and senator to be. I
would have preferred to see a Republi
can elected senator, but I am for the
people ruling and want you to be sena'
tor."
In these words President Roosevelt
settled all doubts as to his attitude
towards the Oregon senatorial contest,
He addressed the governor in the fore'
.going words in his executive office this
tmornirig when Governor Chamberlain,
' Miss Carrie Lee Chamberlain and J. N
Teal called to keep an appointment
previously made through Honorable
John Barrett.
.Turning; to Miss Chamberlain, the
president said: "I am delighted to
meet you, Miss Chamberlain. Your
father haB hit me a few licks from time
to time, but he is a mighty good fel
low."
The room was crowded at the time,
' Seat tors Lodge, Car'er. Warren, Cum
mings and otheis being near. The
president spoke in loud tones appar
ently desirous to have his views known
to all. '
The significance of his statement is
enhanced by the fact that the whole
Oregon situation had been laid before
. him and he was advised of the minutest
details of the affair, and his uttorance
comes as a culmination of Fulton's
efforts to get the president to side with
Uiim in the matter.
H.W Tluy Started
James J, Hill Stat ted his career as a
stevedore in the docks at St. Paul
while Harriman was the son of a poor
country clergyman. Jas. McCrea, pres
ident of the Pennsylvania, began work
Ing upon railroads as a rodman. Oscar
O. Murray, president of the Baltimore
& Ohio, was originally a ticket agent
Charles E. Mellen, president of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford,
jwjfan as a clerk in the cashier's office.
Go,; F. Baer, of the Reading, was
originally a printer. Sir Willian C.
Van Home an American by birth one
. of the creators of the Canadion Pacific
and Martin Hugitt, president of the
Northwestern, both entered the rail
road business as telegraph operators.
Geosge B. Harris, of the Burlington,,
was an office boy, Frederick D. Under
wood, of the Erie, was a break man.
and William H. Newman, president of
the New York Central and all the Van
derbilt lined, was -originally a stn'ion
agent. '
Menu flume
Now Mr. Fulton has the gall to go
before President Roosevelt and claim
. Gov. Chamberlain was elected by fraud,
just Fulton's word for it, and a mighty
poor word at that, as his record is
showing. The people elected Mr.
-Chamberlain by a good safe majority.
and the statement that many republi-
v- cans resistered as democrats to do it is
h Worst kind of rot. Any way a man
has a right to register aB he plonses,
that's no one's business, and Mr. Ful
ton'B statement is one absolutely im
possible of proof fcven if there was
something in it when proven. The
Senator is making a first-class chump
of himself. Sound by his own defeat
by Cake he has become desperate, and
is willing to go to any length to retain
bis seat in the senate, which is undoubt
edly his game, whatever else he may
assert. Representation by a democrat
is not disturbing Fulton half as much
as representation by some one else than
Fulton. Men all over Oregon, regard
less of puty, are rising against this
Fulton program. It is kicking back
fiercely, and Fulton is the one being hit
hardest
Everybody Wants Better ttuncU
The county court of Linn county wilj

that will add wonderfully to this val
