HE MAY ACCEPT BEv KANTNER la CALLED TQ CHTJECH WITH SMALL MEM :' BEESHXP BUT LARGE CON- GBEOATION. Clmrcn Stands Alone to Thickly Settled Portion, of .Portland And Possesses Wonderful Possibilities for Work Eer. Kantner Has, JCot Yet Decided Whether to Accept. (From Saturday 's Daily.) Bev. W. C. Kantner, who yesterday received word by telegram . that the Highland Congregational ehurch of Portland had issued a call to him to fill ill A nnlrJl ; o 41, l.' yet arrived at no decision as to whether " not ne win aeea tne call. The decision was arrived at on Thurs day evening after the "usual reeular prayer meeting, when a meeting of the officers of -the church was held, and Bev. Kantner was immediately wired regarding the action of the board in the matter. It came as a complete surprise to Bev. Kantner, who had no intimation of such an intended action on the part of the Portland congregation. The tel egram telling him of the call also said that a letter would iOi.ow, with explan ations, but when seen by a Statesman reporter yesterday afternoon the letter had not yet arrived, and he was wait ing. its arrival, before making any de cision. Rev. Kintner said that he had no reason for; considering the proposi tion, his personal interests were in Sa lem, where he has labored for "the past ten years continuously, and so far. as he knew, there was not a discord in the church, "But," he said' smiling, "ten years is a long time in one place, and there is a limit to a man's usef ullness. " On that score there is a universal murmur at the thought of parting from this eloquent gentleman who is so much loved by his congregation, as well as by the general public,, and he will be earnestly requested to remain vin his present field of labor, although it is recognized his field of usefullness and the possibility of doing gottu would be much greater in lortiand. In speaking of the? call Rev. Kantner said "This istoo important a matter to decide on the spur of the moment, and although 1 1 now see no reason for accepting, "yet" T wilfgfve the "matter much thought, and consider carefully twfore deciding definitely. I feel that the courtesies of the occasion demand a proper consideration of the proposi tion which is due the congregation making the call, hence I shall, before finally deciding, go , to Portland and look the ground over. At present I have not the slightest idea where the church is located." Rev. Clapp""of Forest Grove, state superintendent of mission wort, was in the city yesterday and told of the new churchy It is located on the East side, in the ' northern portion of the town, It was dedicated about two months ago and since that time tbe.pulpit has been filled by the Rev. D. B. Gray, the city missionary of the church. They have as yet had no regular pastor. The ehurch was built to fill a great need, in a region where there waa no church for over a raile in any direction, and a Sunday school was organized with 100 scholars the flrst Sunday, which has ainee been increased to 200; The mem bership "is necessarily small on account of its being a new church, but in such a field a large organization will no doubt be built in a abort time.

A suit In eqiity was yesterday filed In department No. 2 of the state circuit court for Clarion eounty entitled Uenry O. Edwards, plaintiff, va Iura Hard wick et al, defendants. The plaintiff alleges 4' that he is the owner in fee simple of an undivided one sixth part of the south half of the northeast quar ter, and lots 1 and 2 of section 10, in township 8 south, range 3 west, on taming 143.08 acres; that Laura Hartl wick, Frank T.

(From Saturday's Daily.) It is practically a settled fact that at least two proposed laws will be. sub mitted to the voters of Oregon at the coming election, for their adoption or rejection, by virtue of the initiative amendment to the Constitution. Thee two will be the -Direct Primary Nomin ation Law and the Local Option Law. Aa to the former there have bee per titions filed in the office of the Secre tary of State bearing the signatore of over 8100 elector of the atate, and for the latter petition ha veildso "been filed the name of over 8000 voters. The pe titions for the direct primary law were only circulated in about eight of the eounties of the state, while those of the local option law were circulated in at least twenty-four counties. The Secretary of State and hia force of clerks after, receiving the petitions, the bulk of them arrived on Thursday, have been very busy with the task of counting the names to ascertain as to the correctness of the count an to cor rect' any errors which may oeeur in the petitions.! Although they .worked at them all uay yesterday until the hour of dosing the office in the evening the task has not yet been completed, but it is known, however, that each of these two petitions will have enough signa trues and to spare to insure their being granted and the question being enter ed upon the official ballots for the June election, : the . number of signature re quired by law being only 7018, while each of the proposed laws reeeivel over 8000 signatures.1 After the count and the examinations of the petitions has been completed the Secretary of State wiH report the matter to theu,Governor and . the latter will issue his proclama tion announcing that fact and instruct ing the county clerks of the several counties to have these questions print ed upon the official ballots. Although there were petitions in cir culation , for the initiative upon other proposed laws, rpineipal among whieh was the woman's suffrage law, they .did not materialize and, of course, failed to secure recognition, aa yesterday was the last day upon which the petitions could be filed. These two proposed laws, and espec ially the direct primary law, have been agitated in this state for several years and it is now almost certain that the people will have an opportunity of ex pressing their approval .or disapproval of both of them by means of the ballot. There was a bill before the last leg islature providing for tbe direct nom ination of candidates at the primaries, but after two or three days of lively debate pro and con, during which time the bill was referred and re-referred to committees and reported back again it was finally killed in the Senate by a vtw small mtrniii 'That m a anrp was drafted and introduced by members of the legislature from this county, but the present proposed law was fathered by W. S. TJ'Ren of .Oregon City and is promoted by- the Direct Primary Nomination League of Oregon, of whieh organization Mr. URen is the secretary and prime worker. While this proposed law is not alto gether unlike that which was rejected by the legislature, it is very different from it jin many material respects in that it goes more into the details and makes some very strict provisions as to the manner in which the primaries are to be held and the candidates chos en. - In the first place, tlmse who desire the nomination for any office at the hands of their particular party, must first file their petition with the Secre tary of State or the county clerk, city clerk, recorder or auditor, as the case may be, according to the nature of the office for-whieh he proposes to run, which petition shall le signed by hira aelf, which shall be helrt as evidence conclusive that he is a can.date for nomination bv his party. All petitions for slate or district offices ehall be filed with the Secretary of State, all eounty and judicial district offices with the county clerk, and all city offices with the city recorder or auditor? ' This law in dealing with the qualifications of an elector goes a little deeper in the mat ter of registration than does the Aus tralian ballot law, in that it requires the person who registers his vote to state to which particular party he is affiliated and expects tocast his vote. This done it will be impossible for that person to vote for any candidate at the primaries except those named upon his ticket. r-U,.,- .. It is also prescribed that this law shall effect no political nsrt" except those which received at least 25 per cent of the vote cast at the last Con gressional election or general election, as the case may be. This provision is made for the express purpose of ex cluding, all such minor political inove meatsor side parties as Populists, So cialists, Prohibitionists, etc., and a man must either register as a Republican, Democrat or Popalist, or whatever tbe leading parties may be, and he; cannot register as a gold-Republican or a gold Deraoerat, but must be one or the other. In case of an elector seeking nomin ation under this law, for-the office of Senator or, Represntative in ; the legis lative assembly, be may, if he choose to place himself : on record or pledge himself in any respect, include one of two statements upon his petition; but if he does not do so the Secretary of State or eounty clerk, as the case may he, shall not on that account refuse to file his petition. One of the proposed pledges reads as follows: , TP. I further state to the people of Or egon as well aa 'to tbe ' people of my. legislative' district, that ; during my term of office. I will always vote for that candidate for United States Sen ator in Congress who has received tbe highest number of the 'people's votes for that position at the general elec tion next preceding tne election of a Senator in ('on pre, without 'regard to my individual preference, ' ! , - ? ; v ' This "statement must bear the sig nature of the candidate, but if he shall be unwilling to sign the-above state ment, then he may sign the following statement as a part of his petition: 'During my-term of ofiiee I shall consider the vote of the people !. for United States Senator to Congress, as nothing more than a 'recommendation, I shall be at liberty to. wholly disregard if the reason for so doing seems to me to bo sufficient." : - It is also provided that the candi date, may include ia his petition a dee- jlaration of any measures or principles wnicu e peuy suyocsk imi me form in which he wishes it printed af ter hia name on the ballot sheet, shall not exceed, twelve words, but he if al lowed 100 worda in which to state his principles. . All petitions for nominations under this act, for offices filled fry the state at large, or by any district consisting of more than one county, also for judges of .the circuit courts or district attor neys, in . districts of a single ounty, shall be filet with the Secretary of State not less than 20 days before the date of tbe primary nominating elec tion and for : all other officea under these, the petitions must be filed with the county Clerks or city recorders not less than 15 days before the date of the primary election. , In order that ; it w.ll . be impossible for anyone ti 'vote any ? ticket at the primaries other than that of the party with which he is identified by regis tration, it is providea that all of the official ballots designed to be voted at the primary elections shall be printed for the Republican parfy in black ink upon a good quality of white paper; f,or the Democratic party on blue pa per; and for any third party on yellow paper, it being considered that there shall not be more than three parties represented at the election. .Otherwise, however, the ballots snall.be unlike for each political party. Sample ballots are to be printed upon cheaper paper and not similar ia color to any of the above sothai they may be readily dis cerned from the 6ffjicial ballots. The law also provides the manner in which the elections shaL be conducted, registration process, manner of eon testing nomination of other candidates, etc., which are very similar to the pro visions of the law now in force. The local option law deals exclusive ly with the liquor question and provides the manner in which liquor elections may be held for the purpose of allowing or denying the privilege of selling liquor "in any county, district or pre cinct in tho state, which is practically in many of the city charters in the state at the present time. A BRAVE WOMAN MBS. ALEXANDER CLARK SUC CEEDS IN CAPTURING A REAL LIVE BTJBGLAX. t Intruder Was Caught Helping Himself to Good Things in 8 tore Room of the Leonard and Was Bun to Earth By a Posse of Ladies. I (From Saturday's Daily.) . Salem can boast , of at' least one brave woman, in. the person of Mrs. Alexander Clark, who succeeded in capturing a real live burglar yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Clark and her husband conduct The Leonard, a boarding house at No. 302 Front street, and tbe fact that they always buy the best the mar ket affords, evidently readied the cars of the hobo element, for yesterday, at about 3:30 p. m. Mrs. Bossier, who occupies a room in. the rear .. of the building, saw a "knight of tbe road" st.eak into the store room, which is also located in the rear part of the building and proceed to help himself to the' good things found there. Mrs. Bossier at once gave the alarm, and Mrs. 'lark quickly organized her force ,of lady employes into a posse and surrounded the .house to prevent tbe intruder from making his escape. Tbe order was given to close in, but to the surprise of the ladies it was found that the game had disappeared. In a few moments, however, the sneak thief, seeing 'what be supposed to be. a good avenue for "escape, crawl ed out from his hiding place under the woodshed and made a break ,for an alley way leading to Front street. To his sorrow, he met face to face with Mrs. Clark, who seized the villain and held him until ber husband- could be summoned. Mr. lark laid rm grasp oa the hobo's foliar and marched, him to the police station where he was safely placed behind the. bars. . An examination of tbe. premises re vealed tbe fact that the miscreant had taken a can of syrup and a bag of beans from the store room, which he carried under the woodshed, where it was found by Mrs. Clark. About eight pounds of butter was also missed from the boarding house during-the fore noon and it is thought that the theif had paid a previous visit to the prem ises and having escaped detection re turned to make another raid. ' - When placed in jail the thief gave his name as J. F. Mueller, but finally admitted that his true name is Joseph Coleman. He was recognized by the police as a man who has on several dif ferent occasions during the past month been provided with a bed in, the citv jail, and it is also said that he has lately been in the employ of James Kyje, of this city,, as a laborer, during which time he took his meals at a boarding house on Court street be tween Commercial and Front. A charge of Marceny, or possibly bur-. giary, win re preferred against Cole man this .morning, .snd he will be given a hearing before City Recorder Judah. The Gity Prorided With a Home ' 3 ' A home - has been found for Charles Foot, the 14-year-old bojr wha,a Fri- day of last week was' tamed over' to the police officers of this city, by,. the mem bers of the Holiness Mission, located on Twelfth street. The members of tbe Mission being unable to keep the boy at work, requested the, officers to. take charge of him, and through the efforts of City Recorder Judah a; good home was found for the lad a few miles south of Salem. - (From Sunday's Daily.) , Licensed to Wed ' j Upon the affidavit .of J.

Clark, while in the act of burglarizing the store room of the Leonard - HoteL Friday afternoon, and was lodged ia the city jail for the night, was yesterday taken before City Recorder N. J. Judah, and sentenced to serve ' sixty days in ; the county jail upon the plea of guilty of larceny. lie claimed he did not take the batter, and his partner, who com mitted the first theft, told him it was "dead easy" to get all the eatables he wanted, without $ fear of detection. Hence be thought he was safe in try ing it. ' . I Hop Contracts Piled j w I Three hop contracts were filed in the Marion eounty recorder's office yester- j 'day. One contract made between Lil lienthal Bros, and A. C Manning and Geo. B. McClellan, of Gervais, calls for ' 1,000 pounds of bops, of 1904 growth, the agreed price being 17 eentslper pound. The other two eontraetsniade between the same firm of buyers and Mike Keppinger, of Gervais, calls for 10,000 pounds each, one for the growth of 1904, and the'jjther of 1903, the stipulated price in the former being 16 cents, and in the Utter 14 cents per. pound. ' ' . Will Coma Home J " 1. A. Manning, son of Hon. Vm. Man ning of this city, and a former well known resident of Salem, is on his way home to this city from Matagalpa, Nic aragua. Mr. Manning is bringing his wife and child, and they will ia the future reside in the United States, and likely in Oregon. ! Mr. Manning has re signed his place : as superintendent of the 'large coffee plantations at Mata galpa. Mrs. Manning was formerly Miss Alice Hatch, of this city, well known to all old Salemites. Mr. Man ning was for a long time city editor of the- Statesman, in the eighties. The Mannings will arrive in Salem the lat ter part of this month. (From Saturday's Daily)."
