During, of De catur, 111., who took a full quarter section. m Filings were made at the rate of about one each 15 minutes at the be ginning, which will probably be in creased somewhat as the business pro gresses. It is estimated that the fil ings of all those In line will be com pleted tomorrow, by which time those who went upon the land after, mid night to obtain priority of settlement will begin to arrive and tender their filing. There has been no bad feel ing engendered as yet, although this may develop when the number of con tests that are sure to arrive are in stituted. Laden with blankets and tin stoves, at least 500 homeseekers left Tekoa, , Wash., near the state line, within the last several days to squat on reserva tion land.

Scores of wo men leading a mob if several hun dred garment workers, marched from union headquarters this after noon, blowing horns, tooting whis tles and Jeering at the strikebreak ers. A riot ensued when ' police attempted to break up the parade and for several minutes strikers and police mixed in fierce conflict. Night sticks were drawn and freely used. Women were knocked down and trampled upon and several wen; Injured. A number of arrests wero made before the mob was finally dispersed. All day long the striking work men continued their activities and many riots of a minor character oc curred. On the West Side the work ers repeatedly gathered In knots, listening to excited harangues and Invariably a disturbance occurred when the police ordered them to mora on. Women and children were con spicuous In the crowd. The first pangs of hunger, already are begin ning to be felt by the less fortunate of the strikers. Many have beon turned out of their homes because of unpaid rent. Efforts are being made by the union officials and charity workers to prorfde for the most desperate cases but if the strike last many days longer their resources will be greatly below th-3 demand. , Another good thing about that Portuguese revolution 1b that It has 'aught us all more about the geogra phy of the Iber'an peninsula. HALLOE'EX HOODLUMS DO SERIOUS DAMAGE Mrs. Jennie if. Thomas, widow, at 816 Mill street,' reports destruction of two gates built to fit a stone wall, and costing her $14. They were torn from the hinges and smashed to kindling wc)d in a spirit of wanton destruction. All the street signs In that part of the cl'y were torn down, and the most flagrant disregard of property was shown by the spirit of hoodlumlsm rampant Hallowe'en night. In the future there should be special police appointed for that night to protect citizens. The city council should take action of some sort to make an examre of those who wantonly destroy property or steal tools and articles of value. I OREGON WILL NOT VOTE DRY Rev. Wm. A.'

"With my nine days' experience within the borders of the state, dur ing which I have visited nd spoken before large audiences in many cities, I predict that state-wide prohibition will be defeated in the state by a large majority, and that the proposed home rule measure will carry by a .large majority. Furthermore the prohibi tion wave that has been sweeping the country for the past 60 years is on the wane, and the movement for strict prohibition wll: be nationally replaced by reasonable regulatory laws,' said Rev. William A. Wasson, rector of the Eplicopal church, of Long Island ,who arrived in this city I this morning, and will deliver an ad drees upon the "Fallacies of Prohibi tion" at the grand opera house to night. "I find the sentiment in the state very strong against state-wide prohi bition. There Is no question but that prohibition will be defeated by a large majority, and that the home rule measure will carry. The people feel that the only way to solve the liquor question is for the communi ties to regulate the traffio and remove the abuses that sometimes exist. The prohibition wave Is on the wane. I was speaking with one of the most prominent' prohibitionists in New York since the recent election In Maine. From a prohibition point of view he regarded the res'ilt in Maine as one of the most severe blows the cause has received in the last half century. " Situation in Maine. " 'If prohibition Is not a success in Maine, after 60 years of trial.sald this divine, 'It cannot be anywhere. I predict that within two years that Maine, the Gibraltar of prohibition will go back to licensed saloons throughout the state. The cities are now wide open. And the difference between license and prohibition In Maine is between the sale of good whiskey and bad. I do not bolleve that the people of Oregon will be so blind as to adopt a system that con servatlve old men have repudiated, and are about to discard In disgust af ter so many years of bitter experi ence. No state can make progress under extreme sumptuary laws. The most progressive and . enterprising and hard-headed business men of the country realize that prohibition means commercial and Industrial Executive Committee Meets Tonight to Decide on Matter Late i Today All the Companies Affected, Except the United States Express Compnay, Agreed to Arbitrate on the Question, of Union Recognition No Violence Was Re sorted JoJToday. i (Continued on Pace S.) , Salem German Singing Society That .

One hundred lhousandr4eamsters, chauffeurs and helpers may be called on strike In. NewiXork -city and a nation wide strikeof express drivers is threat ened as a result of the strike ot drivers and helpers employed by tho express companies now out In New Yor'.;, Jersey City and Hoboken. The executive committee of the International Brotherhood of Team sters will meet tonight to decide whether a sympathetic strike shall be called In New York. It they de cide to take their men from the wa gons, vehicle traffic in greater New York will be paralysed. It is gener ally believed today that the council Intends to come to the aid ot the express men. It Is said that the de cision, which - was expected last flight, was postponed in order to al; low further organization. Organi zers representing the various locals affected by the possible order, ar busy as bees today and merchants and wholesalers In New York are preparing for the- expected emer gency. In the meantime the international union Is preparing a new monthly wage scale to be demanded in the principal cities of the United States. The scale calls for $80 monthly for route drivers; $70 for transfer men; $G5 for drivers of wagons . without helpers; $80 for chauffers; $55 for first helpers, and $50 for . other helpers. The scale calls for a work day of not to exceed 11 hours and no Sunday work. A committee ot the striking drlv- . ers today told Health Commissioner Lederle that 10,000 cars ot perisha ble goods would be allowed to be un loaded and distributed among tho consumers. A committee ot strikers also called on Mayor Gaynor anrl protested against using policemen ns -guards on express wagons being operated by guards. The platform men of the express companies struck today and strike breakers are being sought to fill their places. About 400 wagousp were moved up to noon. There was little disorder during' the morning but the going out ot the platform men was evidently a blow to the express companies and they endeavored to operate today by making the strikebreaking teamsters and - helpers do double duty, by working on the platforms as well a on the wagons. Jeering strikers and their sympathizers stood as near the express depots as the police would permit and taunted the strikebreakers. (Continued on page eight.)
