CHARGES
AGAINST
RADER
Who Has Been Head of
Anti-Saloon League
Belief Now That Assault Upon
Him at Salem Was Self
Inflicted
Portland, Jan. 29. Grnvo chnrgoa
will bo brought against Row Paul
Rndor, goncrnl suporlntoudont of tho
Anti-Saloon Longuo of Oregon, nt a
speclnl meeting of tho bonrd ot trus
tees of that organization to bo hold
this week. It 1b assorted by mem
bers; of tho board that ovldonco will
bo produced at that time to Bhow
Mr. Rader Is a fakir, puro and sim
ple, and that ho 1b anything but a
devout and earnest Christian. It la
further alleged thnt ho will bo re
quested to hand In hlo roRlanntlon at
tho mooting. Ho will bo charged, It
is predicted, with having blackened
tho sood name of -tho Anti-Saloon
Leaguo in Oregon by dollbernto mis
representation, and plunging tho or
gnnlzatlon almost hopelessly Into
debt.
Tho most sensatlonnl of tho charg
es that ho will bo callod upon to nn
swer Is tho ono thnt tho story ho told
of boinc assaulted by thugs at Salem
last February was mndo up of whole
cloth, ond that tho wounds ho snld
ho received during tho oncounter
wero Bolf-Inlllctod. Mr. Rndor's ono
mloB among tho temperance workers
declnro that ho cooked up tho story
partly to bring tho liquor dealers In
to dlsroputo by Insinuating that tho
assault was Instigated by them, bill
principally to obtain glory for him
self. Tho saloon mon havo always con
tended that Rndor was not assaulted
at Salem, and that ho told tho story
merely to creato public sympathy.
Following tho alleged assault and
tho counter-charges made by the
liquor men. tho loaders among tho
tempernnco workors becamo Indig
nant and rallied to tho defense of the
superintendent of tho leaguo. Ro
Uglous and tomporanco workers all
over the stato wero wrought up to a
high pitch of cxcltomont over tho al
leged assault, and Under was hailed
as a horo.
Exploded by Investigation,
But, as tho story goes, tho rumors
that tho assault Btory was a fako be
camo so persistent that officers of th
leaguo made an Investigation to sat
isfy themselves. Instead of becom
ing convinced that tho assault was
genuine, they wero forced to tho con
clusion that Rader had concocted
the story of tho uBsault from begin
ning to tho end. They havo said but
little about it heretofore, but now
they are willing to tell all they know.
At the tlmo Rader reported tho al
leged assault ho was especially active
in fighting tho saloon evil. Ho went
to Salem to attend to leaguo busi
ness. Ho was walking along a dark
street, ho said, when two mon ap
proached him and attempted his life.
To bear out his statements ho showed
the authorities at Salem a slight flesh
wound in the hand and a rent in his
coat and Yest, which, ho said, had
been made by a knife in tho handB of
one of his would-bo assassins.
Tho authorlttea at Salem mudo an
investigation, but could learn noth
ing outsido of whnt Rndor told him
self to substantiate his tnlo.
Another chargo that will bo pre
sented Is that Rader made falso state
ments by which ho dofontcd for re
election Dr. Clnronco True Wilson,
thon president of tho longub, who
had been Instrumental In securing
for htm tho position of superintend
ent. The annual election by the
bonrd of trustees wns hold last Oc
tobor. It Is said thnt Rader ap
peared before tho nominating com
mittee nnd nsked who hnd boon do
cldod upon for president. Ho was
told that the commlttuo lntondod to
recommend Dr. Wilson for ro-oloctlon
He lloiTOUTd on Notes.
A third chargo, it. Is Bald, will bo
that Rndor has boon guilty of gross
mismanagement of tho fundB of tho
longuo. To secure monoy for tho
league, It Is nllogod, ho got certain
persons In Portland to glvo promis
sory notes for consldornblo amounts,
among thorn being Dr. Clnronco True
Wilson, who may havo' to make good
$1500 bo obtained. It Is snld that
.during tho campaign that prccodod
tho Juno election Rndor borrowed
money on these notes, nnd promised
to raise by subscription to defray tho
expenses of the leaguo enough to pay
it back within a month nftor tho
notCB wero signed.
ThQ.ropney has not boon forthcom
Wr'lt Is said, nnd tho lenguo is
about?4000 in debt. It Is also al
leged that the league Is dally getting
dooper In debt and thnt Rador Is
mnklng no effort to extricate It. Rnd
or is tho only paid o III cor of tho
league, and receives a Balnry of
$2000 n year.
Story of the Assault.
ANTI-GRAFT
BATTLE STILL
TO COME
AH Want Appropriations and the Gov

Tho big light of thlH legislative
session Is still to como. Governor
Chamberlain, whllo ho Is handicapped

wedded to 'thcBO propositions as to

wns alleged to havo boon mndo nt
Salem on tho night of Fobrnnry 27,
of Inst year. Rodor was in Salem for
tho purpose of organizing n branch
of the Aanti-Snloon Leaguo thoro. Ho
was accompanied to tho Capital City
by If. L. McCabo, a youth undor ago,
who WB3 employed to procuro ovl
donco against the dlvo-keopors of
Portlnnd.
According to Rader, ho wnB walk
ing along a sldo street about (1:30 at
night when ho was approached by
two men. Ono of them hit him on
tho back of tho head, nnd tho othor
endeavored to stab him 'with a largo
knife, As the latter struck nt Under
ho said, according to Rndor's stery:
"You stoolplgeon, I'll fix
you."
Rader said he grappled with hli
assailant, and they rolled In tho mud,
but tho thug escaped from Rader and
ran away with his companion. Rador
Bald at tho tlmo that ho bollovcd tho
mon hnd followed him from Port
land. Rador told the authorities that tho
only thing that saved his lifo was a
pocketbook, which he carried In his
vost pocket directly ovor his honrt.
The blade of tho knlfo penetrated
tho coat pierced tho outsido cover of
tho pocketbook to tho last of a dozen
cards In tho case. The wound on the
left hand, which was inflicted, he
'said, when he throw up his arm to
protect himself, was about three
Inches in length, and two stitches
wero taken in it.
When Rader appeared at tho sher
iff's office at Salem to report tho as.
sault, he showed no excitement. The
local authorities at Salem and Sher
iff Culver of Marion county, did tholr
best to find somo traco of tho two
men who are alleged to havo at
tacked the superintendent, but wero
unsuccessful.
A temperance worker In Portlnnd.
who has known Rader intimately ov
or since he has been in Portland, said
yesterday that Rador still woro tho
vest which was slashed, and refused
to allow the knlfo cut In It to bo
mendod. It Is also said that ho car
ries with him the pocketbook with
tho cards that were pierced by tho
knife, and that ho takes great pride
in exhibiting tko mutilated rest and
pocketbook, l
has taken tho simp out of tho fight
for roform. Ah has boon tho prno
tlco for somo tlmo, thoro will bo
throo or four Bopurato appropriation
bills, and tho governor enn send
back any of them for correction, or
ho can voto slnglo Uqiub of any of
them. At honrt. It Is not bollovud
tho govornor will enro much If tho
Jamestown graft gots knocked In tho

On top of all this thnt abomination
In tho oyes of tho pooplo but a few
yonrs ago, a railroad commission,
with clerks and secretary, Is to bo re

tho wholo domain of official activity
to bo extended nt tho expense of tho
pooplo. An institution for tho feeble
minded, wjth a thousand nores of
farming lands, a block of ground for
a park adjoining the state house with
a mansion for tho governor, ia to bo
purchased. Tho governor will bo put
up against n wilderness of appropria

new burdens, part of them his own
asking, and yot .tho pooplo, and es
pecially tho farmers, feel that ho will
prove equal to tho occasion, and
swim out of tho political pool with
victory, and possibly a United States
senatorship in his grasp.
