AN OREGON MAN BEGINS
ON THE SECOND CENTURY
James Blakely Feasts on 100th
Birthday Grandchildren
Number Eighty-five.
Brownsville, Or., Nov. 26. Sur
rounded by his children and his chil
dren's children to the fifth (reiteration,
James Blakely today celebrated his
lOOlh birthday at his hnine here in
the city, which he founded more than
) years ago. Feeble in body, but
perfectly clear in mind, he rounded
out a century of life, enjoying an
event which marks the lives of but
few men.
There arc many events in the life
of this grand old man any one of
which would distinguish him among
his fellow-men. Taken collectively
they form a remarkable galaxy of
achievement and considered with his
longevity they give him honored place
among Oregon's most notable citi
zens. He is an Oregon pioneer of 1846.
He served with honor at the head of a
company in Oregon's Indian wars.
He founded a city and lived to see it
become a growing, prosperous trad
ing center. He was one of the pio
neer merchants of the Willamette
Valley. He and many of bis sons
have been honored by their fellow
citizens in various parts of Oregon
with important official positions. To
day as he sat among his descendants,
honored by hundreds of relatives and
friends, he could look back over near
ly a century of usefulness.
, It is given to few men to reach the
' age of HH) years. And yet more rare
is an instance when one who reaches
this remarkable age has a life so full
of achievement ami honor in the his
tory and development of his com
munity as has Captain Hlakely. His
record is perhaps without a parallel.
Celebrating this most unusual event
was a splendid birthday dinner today
at the home of his sou, Henry Blak
ely, in this city, which was attended
by eight of his nine living children, It
grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren,
two great-great-grandchildren ami
many other relatives and friends. The
two children of the fifth generation
who were present at the dinner, a
feature of which was a massive cake
with 100 burning caudles, were Ed
ward Craves, five years old, of Olym-
Iiia, Wash., and Mary Alice Witteu
erg, 1 year old, a daughter of Mr.
ami Mrs. Mason Wittenberg, of
Portland. The only child of Captain
lllakely who was not present at the
dinner was Mrs. Margaret Smith, a
daughter, who resides ill Montana.
Friends and relatives of Captain
Blakely came from all parts of the
Northwest to attend this centennial
birthday dinner. Among those pres
ent were: Mr. and Mrs. W. M. lllak
ely,' of Pendleton: Mr. and Mrs. J. A.

Tonight the entire population of
ll'onnsville paid high honor to the
city's most distinguished citizen. A
"centennial celebration" was held in
the Tabernacle in this citv and hun
dreds of residents of Brownsville and
the surrounding country turned out
to honor the 100th birthday of the
founder of Iheir city. Rev. C. F.
Koehler, pastor of the First Presby
terian church here, reviewed the life
and achievements of Captain Blakely
and many others spoke in praise of
In slife and his honored record.
Cluster Lights.
Mercha-nts and other business
men are usually the first to recog
nize the commercial effectiveness
of ample and modern artificial
lighting, both in their places of
business and in the streets on
which they are located. It was
through their efforts and financial
support that the first electric
white way lighting systems were
installed in. the United States a
few years ago.
Among the first white way sys
tems installed were those in Los
Angeles and San Diego. The ef
fect upon business men visiting
Southern California in winter was
rapid. Such cities as Minneapo
lis, St. I'aul, Portland, Ore., San
l'Viwicisco, St. Louis and Kansas
City soon followed the example.
Later came cities of smaller pop
ulation, ranging in size down to
5,000 population. A number of
cities of less than 10,000 people
now have from 100 to 150 posts
installed .
The next stage of ornamental
curl) lighting development appear
ed in a general movement toward
payment for the service, not by
the merchant sand property own
ers, but by the municipalities. It
was recognized that lighting the
streets is properly and primarily a
municipal function, and that even
though the merchants and busi
ness men are directly and greatly
benefited, the service is of un
questionable value to the com
munity as a whole.
The results to the merchants
were so apparent that they did
not, as a class, protest against the
expense of paying for the service.
It was found, however, that here
and there would appear an ob
structionist who would not bear
his share of the cost. Merchants
change locations, go out of busi
ness, etc., and this further com
plicated matters, invariably re
sulting in a lack of uniformity in
the lighting. The posts in front
of one store for instance would
be well kept and painted a certain
color and the globes kept clean
and lamps renewed as often as
necessary. The next store, per
haps, would desire paint of an
other color and would neglect the
proper cleaning and maintenance
of the equipment.
For the reasons outlined, many
cities through their authorities,
have contracted directly with the
local lighting companies for a
definite service extending over a
certain period of years. In this
way the very best results arc real
ized and the full value of the or
namental illumination achieved
for the city.
Therefore, while the merchants
are direct beneficiaries of white
way lighting, it does not follow
that they should be called upon
to pay the expense of the service,
other than to bear their pro-rata,
in the form of taxes. The cost,
however, borne by the entire city,
will be neither great or burden
some, and entirely withi'ii the na
ture of a real revenue-bringing
investment.
Whatever is finally outlined for
the Albany white way installa
tion should not omit considera
tion of the points mentioned. It
may be that some other plan be
sides niti'tiicipal support will be
found best, hut it is the part of
wisdom to consider the experience
of other cities in similar matters.
It is understood that the local
electric company is willing to
make the considerable initial in
vestment necessary, provided as
surance is given that the lighting
is maintained for a duration of
time long enough to make the in
stallation feasible from a com
mercial standpoint.

PACKED HOUSE GRIEETS GOVERNOR WEST
LAST EVENING WHEN CHIEF EXECUTIVE
Mayor Gilbert Presided at Monster Meeting and Hon. W. R.
Bilyeu Introduced Speaker Who Was Given Ovation When
He Arose to Make His Address Governor Says That Laws
Can Be Enforced if District Attorneys Will Do Their Duty.
With fully nine hundred people
packed into the opera nousc and bun
(jrccis turned away, Governor Oswiiii!
West last tcning delivered a strong
iddcr.ss to the citizen of Albany oi.
the subject of "Law Enforcement.''
The governor arrived at the opera
house shortly after 8 o'clock, accom
panied by a large delegation of local
business men with whom he had just
dined at the Xew Elite. Mayor Gil
bert called the meeting to order.
Attorney W. R. liilyeu arose arid in
a short address said:
'The object of this meeting is
known to everybody and I will not
spend any time on this subject.
Much has happened in Albany during
the past few months that has occupied
the attention of the residents of this
city, the principal thing being the
blind pigs, which have been complain
ed of since Albany went dry. The
good citizens of this community are
trying to enforce the laws by keeping
within the law. We have arrested and
indicted men who have violated the
local option laws. The arch conspira
tor in the blind pig business in this
city was arrested on several charges
of violating the local option laws of
this enmity and although he lied about
several things on the witness stand
and therefore perjured himself, the
evidence was heard by juries of fair
minded men who promptly returned
verdicts of guilty, convicting him in
several cases. '
"Many men arc brought into the
circuit court where they perjure them
selves and no indictment is returned
against them. A man that will per
jure himself ought to be in the peni
tentiary. 1 am in favor of making
bootleggers afraid to come into court
and perjure themselves, and I hope
that the next grand jury will indict
certain parties for perjury and if they
are convicted, send them to the pen
as an example to others who would
do likewise. 1 now take great pleas
ure in introducing to you, the Hon.
Oswald West, governor of the state
of Oregon, who will address you on
the subject of law enforcement.
Amid a burst of applause from the
crowd, Governor West arose and
said: "The last time I was in your
city was just before I was elected to
office. I promised you certain things
at that time , if I was elected. You
saw fit to elect me and I am hert this
evening to say that 1 have kept aM
the promises that 1 made at that time
and incidentally, to make you some
more promises. I will return later to
see if they have been kept.
"I am not a candidate for reelec
tion but in the next two years I am
going to do what 1 think is right in
the matter of law enforcement and am
going right down the line. The gov
ernor is charged witli the enforce
ment of the laws of the state. He is
also given the authority to use the
state militia to enforce the laws if
necessary, but the state troops should
be used only on special occasions. It
should not be necessary to use troops
in driving out the blindpigs and boot
leggers. "Whenever the local officials of any
community fail in their efforts to en
force the laws, they 'naturally look to
the governor and it is up to him to
respond, but the people should first
look to the sheriff, the district attor
ney, and other local officials for law
enforcement. If they do their duty it
will not be necessary to call on the
governor for assistance.
"Of course some of the district at
torneys are now in a position to tell
the governor to 'go to the dickens in
some cases should they care to do so,
but if the governor had the power to
remove these officers, cither perma
nently or temporarily it would make a
big difference. 1 have a measure
which will be introduced at the next
session of the state legislature which
will give the governor the power to
remove district attorneys, say even for
a period of ninety days, and to appoint
special prosecutors to take their plac
es. ' "In many places these officers are
not doing their duty and when they
say they can't enforce the law they
are either crazy or crooked, for if they
are on the square ami want to enforce
the law they can do it. The sheriff
and other officials are placed in a
hard position if the district attorney is
not with them.
"1 am glad to say that Albany is
one of the few places in the state
where it has not been found necessary
to call on the governor for assistance
in enforcing the laws and 1 appreci
ate this fact. You are doing excellent
work here and are putting the blind
pigs out of business. The expense to
which the taxpayers are put in the
trials of men charged with violating
the local option laws is enormous and
I would be in favor of a measure to
place this burden upon the liquor in
terests. They hadn't ought to kick at
such a smalt request.
"I also believe that the liquor peo
ple should provide homes throughout
the state for the drunkards when they
attain old age. A home for inebriates
would be a great monument to the
liquor industry. The liquor interests
had a big package handed to them at
the recent election when the women
of Oregon were granted the right of
suffrage and it will make a great dif
ference in the conditions as they now
exist.
" There sh ould be a compens atim

Fl
law to require the liquor people to
take care of the men whose lives they
have ruined through the sale of intox
icating liquor. A bill will be intro
duced at the' next session of the leg
islature to prevent saloon keepers
from cashing checks of laboring men.
Many of these men have received
their pay and had their checks cashed
at a saloon where they invariably
remain until every cent is spent, while
their families at home are forced to go
without food and clothing.
"Jireweries have no right to ship
booze to blindpiggers in dry territory
nor the express companies to accept
the goods for shipment. Through the
next session of the legislature I ex
pect to sec many favorable measures
passed but regardless of what that
body docs we will secure many good
things by the initiative. Unless the
liquor people spruce up at once and
read the handwriting on the wall, and
show that they are willing to help
better the conditions, there is a good
chance of this state going dry.
"I have tried time and again to get
them to obey the laws but they won't
do it and it is now up to you people.
With a large number of competent
special agents the governor given the
power to remove officials who will
not do their duty, and a little money
to work with, , we will get along all
right.
"1 he liquor people have a great
power and will make every effort
within their power to head off any
attack against them. In Portland I
couldn't get any results from the dis
trict attorney and have resorted -to
the use of the injunction laws to
prevent certain places from doing
business, declaring them to be a public
nuisance. If the courts decide in our
favor, it will give us another weapon
with which to attack the saloons
through the equity courts if not
through our public officials.
"I do not know of anything that
I can do to help you Albany people.
You haven't asked for any help from
my office in the enforcement of the
laws of your city and county, but I
am here to ask you to help me in my
campaign in this state.
"Many men have been brought to
the penitentiary at Salem for petty
crimes, by sheriffs who were more
crooked than the prisoner themselves.
We try to put men back on their feet
at Salem regardless of the criticism,
and we have had considerable success,
too.
"Many men who are brought to
the penitentiary are degenerates or
confirmed criminals, while others arc
young men who are behind the bars
for the first time, having committed
some trivial offense. These young
men we endeavor to keep separated
from the hardened criminals orchard
boils" as we call them, for if they are
allowed to come in daily contact with
this class, they will make criminals
sure. If we think that there is any
good in them we give them labor
out-of-doors and endeavor to reform
them."
Governor West then devoted sev
eral minutes to the various state in
stitutions, telling of the work that was
being done in each of them, including
the reform school, the penitentiary,
the deaf mute school, the insane asy
lum and the blind school, and invited
the citizens of Albany to visit them
when the opportunity offered itself
that they might see where the money
goes.
He told of the effort being made
to place the penitentiary on a self
supporting basis stating that within
the past three years a sum aggregat
ing nearly $40,000 had been turned in
to the state treasury from the money
received for prison labor. He 'also
told of the indeterminate sentences,
explaining it fully.
When the governor had concluded
his remarks, Mayor Gilbert arose and
stated:
"The matter of law enforcement
is a matter of great importance to the
people of Albany. Many have said
that the governor is playing to the
galleries. I for one do not believe
this to be the case. I believe that
Governor West is sincere in his work
and have the utmost confidence in
him and am satisfied that he will en
force the laws. We should do every
thing in our power to aid him."
I.. E. Hamilton then read the fol
lowing resolution which was adopted
by the unanimous rising vote of the
audience:
To Oswald West, Governor of Ore
gon: We, the citizens of Albany and Linn
county, Oregon, recognizing the fact
that the eyes of the home makers of
the nation are turned approvingly up
on our state because of your splendid
stand for civic righteous; and believe
with Gladstone that "It is the duty of
the government to make it easy for
nun to do right and difficult for them
to do wrong." congratulate you upon
your splendid effort and success in ex
ecuting the laws of our state pertain
ing to a cleaner manhood and woman
hood, and we pledge you our enthusi
astic moral and financial support.
Governor West arose and thanked
the people of Albany for their expres
sions of confidence in him and his
work and said that they did not real
ize what their action in passing the
resolution meant to him. He was
given au ovation at the conclusion of
the meeting.
Mr. Stanley Stewart and children
