The Oregon executive presided at the Marshall meeting in Ashland, but at Medford turned him over to the Jack son county central committee. No special reception committee to meet the governor was appointed here. Several prominent local Democrats joined the party when it left the train at the Oregon Electric depot. Two au tomobiles awaited and the governor was quietly escorted to the Marlon Hotel, where the Salem Military band was awaiting his appearance, and a demonstration lasting several minutes was given him.

Woiialehee, Wash., Oct 24. The big plant of the Wenatcheo Ice Cold Stor age and Canning Company, with 100 cars of apples was destroyed by. fire today. The loss of the plant Is esti mated at $75,000. One hundred apple growers are affected. . Several narrow escapes from death were reported and half a dozen work men are slightly Injured. The fire started In the storage de partment on the second floor and with the apples destroyed 60,000 boxes of canned goods. The factory carried an Insurance of $55,000. At 1 p. m. the fire was still burning. the hotel while the candidate was at lunch, which was Increased after he Usued from the dining room. The crowd followed the governor to the theatre, which was packed to the doors before his arrival, the crowd having began to assemble shortly after 1 o'clock. "After an effort of 16 years by the Republican party to get rid of the trusts and to: take the burden off the people by Republican methods," said the governor, "they have frankly ad mitted that the trusts cannot be gotten rid of, and all that can be done is to regulate this evil. If this Is true,.then the Socialists cannot be reasoned with. I am with the Democratic party because I do not believe It Is necessary to have either Socialism or paternal Ism.

I never have appealed for them, and I never will. "It is my belief that the state of Oregon knows more about what dis position should be made of Its land and Its resources than the federal government knows about It. Also I be lieve that, just as all the other states are capable of taking care of the trust problem for themselves, so is the state of Oregon capable of handling that problem for Itself. You people who live in Oregon are to blame If the trusts are bad. If the government Is bad, you people are to blame. It Is up to you, people of Oregcn to remedy the government and to tell the trusts to be good. This Is not a government of men, It is a government cf law and parties. Must Fare Conditions.

May Drive Turks out of Europe Fierce Battle Still in Pro gress But Turks Are Los ing at every PointClaimed Battle May End War IIMTKD 1'IIKKM I.KASCU W1IIK.J Vienna, Oct. 24. Locked In a death grapple, on the outcome of which i hnngs the fate of Islam in Europe, Moslem Turks and Christians Serbs and Iiulgars continued today their bat tlo for the Fortress of Kirk Klllssch, the fall of which, It is admitted, will pave the way to Adrlunople's fall, the ultlmate'capture of Constantinople and the probable expulsion of the Moham medan from Europe. Sweeping in from the northeast, the Bulgarian army has cleft Its way al most to the walls of Kirk Kllisseh, and, spread out In a wide crescent for mation, Is steadily pushing back the Turks to the very walls of the fort ress. Valllka and Tlrnovo have nl ready been occupied by the Christians, and, their advance forces almost sur rounding Kirk Kllisseh, they are bat tling desperately for Its fall before pushing on to Adrianople, only about 20 miles west. Slaughter Is Terrific News from the actual front Is frag mentary, but enough has come through the lines to show that more than 250, 000 men are engaged on both sides, and It Is certain that the slaughter Is terrific. On the right wing of the attacking Bulgarian force, It said, con tact already has been established with the Turkish forces defending Adrian ople, and that 100 of the Moslems were killed In a sharp conflict at a redoubt on the banks of the River Arda. It Is even rumored that Bulgar siege guns have opened fire on Adrianople Itself, but this report Is so far unconfirmed. Adrianople Will Full. Aiding the frontal assault of the Bulgars on Kirk Kllisseh and Adrian ople, a Servian force, which has al ready captured Kumanova, Is pushing desperately onward to the south In an effort to turn the Turkish left flank. Should this movement be successful, and a heavy force of Serbs gain posi tion to the southwest of Adrianople, there is hardly a doubt that that city will fall, particularly If the Bulgars continue their successes to the north and northeast. It Is pointed out here by military ex perts that this Is probable. The Turks, with their -whole force available, are admitted to have so far failed to stop the Bulgar attack, and If they are forced to weaken the front presented to Czar Ferdinand's troops to encounter the Serbs, defeat would seem to be almost a certainty for the soldiers of the snltnn. They would be caught between two fires, and a bat tle to the death In and about Adrian ople, a historical struggle,' possibly would settle the Balkan war. To Fire Turk From Europe. This view is taken from the stand point that the viotorlousBalkan allies would be satisfied with acquiring from the Turk the provinces originally In dispute. This view, however, Is scout ed by many observers. They believe that the remarkable co-operntlon of Blugarla, Sorvln, Montenegro and Greece Is evidence that their plans were fully laid long before the out break of hostilities, and that the real ot'ject of the wnr Is not autonomy for Macedonia or the cessation f the Al banian atrocities, but the absolute and final expulsion of the Turk from Eu rope, and the placing of the cross again on the Mosque of St. Sophia In Constantinople and re-establlshment again under Ferdinand of Bulgaria of that empire of the east which flour ished under Constantlne.

The case has bwn before the courts for nioro than n jT?ar. Tho reason given by Mr. Olcott. for having the case dismissed Is that be muse of technicalities the case would of necessity be referred back t the circuit court from tho supreme court, nnd because with tho completion of the new supreme court building the pointing office will ho removed to the new buildings as provided In tho ar chitect's specifications.
