Arrives at Noon and Speaks
at Grand . Opera House
Being Introduced By Gov
ernor West-Made Friends
Declaring that, while he Is out In the
Interests of the whole of Democracy,
the primary purpose of his visit to
Oregon Is to do all In his power to
loct Harry Lane to the United States
senate, and that he would rather see
Woodrow Wilson go down to defeat
thnnMbe elected, but bound hand and
fewt byji Republican senate and a Re
publican house of representatives,
Coventor Marshall, of Indiana, Dem
ocratic candidate for vice-president,
addressed a crowded house at the
Grand opera house tills afternoon.
While the governor was at lunch
eon with his party, and the Salem
men who Joined the party here, Mrs.
Marshall, who accompanies her hus
"band, was the guest at the noonday re

-with remarks both appropriate and
Democratic.
Arrived at Noon.
Governor Marshall arrived in Salem
over the Oregon Electric, reaching
liere at 12 o'clock, coming directly
from Albany, where he made an ad
dress this forenoon. At the Commer
cial street stop James B. Godfrey and
AuguBt Huckesteln, representing Ma
Tlon county Democrats boarded tfte
train and joined the governor's party.
Thomas R, Wilson, also a Salem man,
went to Albany early this morning,

of the Democratic state central com
mittee ; John Bayne, Democratic candi

West Returned Eurly.
Governor West met Governor Mar

Marshal party again this afternortn.
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.
I Crowd Was Large.
j Despite the exceedingly Inclement
weather, which has continued for sev-
ral days, rendering the country roads
leading into Salem well nigh unfit for
! traffic, the city was well filled with
i Democrats, and Interested members of
the other parties who had co e from
: every corner of the county. There was
scarcely a Democrat In Salem who did
1 not participate In soie part of the
! demonstration attending the gover
nor's visit.
Governor Marshall lunched with his
! party, including several Salem men,
t immediately after arrival at the hotel,
i though a few minutes were given up
! to handshaking before the meal. The
governor refused to grant any Inter
: views before he regaled himself In the
.( Marlon grill.
i Some time Intervened after his
ilnncheon before the Marshall party
'proceeded to the opera house during
; which Mr. Marshall made acquaint
ances and talked freely.

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.

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 am for the old-fashioned indi
vidualism of Thomas Jefferson.
' Talks on Oregon's Rights.
'I am merely the tall of the Demor
cratlc kite. If you can send the kite
up without me, I am content. I am
an old-style Democrat, and I am proud
of It Further, I am a believer In
state's rights, and I am proud of that.
Such Is my plea.. I am not here to ap
peal for votes. 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.
To reform the world Is not the
duty of you people. In the world of
affairs ycru cannot cure Its Ills today,
nor can you cure them tomorrow. My
father was a country doctor, and as a
youngster I thought that all the dis
eases in the world could be cured by
quinine and pills. But I have found
through long experience that while
fever and chills must be cured, appen
dicitis must also be conquered. The
same condition prevails in the world
of affairs.
'I am not much good at praying, but
I have prayed for three and a half
years that God would save this ccmn
try from a one-man government. The

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.
Torks Beaten Everywhere.
What part In this general plan If
such Is the plan Is being worked out
by the Montenegrins and Greeks Is as

The long pending case of the state
of Oregon on the relation of Hen W.
Olcott as secretary of state 'and as cus
todian of tho state capltol building
against Willis S. Itmilwny, state print
er, which was begun with tho object
of ousting the printer nnd his office
from the capltol building, was this
morning dismissed at the request, of
Secretary Olcott. 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. The removal
v 111 take place In about a year.
Secretary Olcott undertook the task
of removing the printer from the capl
tol building because of his position as
custodian of the building. With the
arising of new conditions he does not
consider It practicable t0 carry the
case farther.

Chicago, Oct. 21. Spurred to action
by evidence of a natlim-wldo organi
zation which reaps an enormous profit
by supplying white girls to wealthy
negroes, Chinese nnd Japanese, gov
ernment officials In every Important
city of the country today received
orders from Washington to take steps
Immediately to stop such traffic. Ev
idence was produced In tho federal
grand jury Investigations here of
a white slavery case In which Pugll

most certain that such an organ Iza
tion exists.
A score of Instances where white
girls had been shipped from Btate to
Btate to negroes, Chinese and Japan
ese were given to the United Press
this nftornoon by Arthur B. Farwell,
I president of the Law and Order
League
"The Chinese," Farwell said, "are
the most fastidious. They will nccept
only tho most beautiful and attractive
while girls. Price Is no object as long
as the girl Is protty. Tho negroes nnd
Japanese are easier to please. So
long as tho girl Is white, It docs not
matter to them."
Farwell flatly charged the police In
large cities with responsibility for
present conditions. Police action
against the wblto slave organization,
he said, had been stifled by money.

New York, Oct. 24. More light wan
thrown on the alleged brutality and
depravity of Jack Johnson, tho negro
pugilist, hero today by Mrs. David
Terry, mother of Mrs. Etta Duryea
Jnhnsoii, tho negro's white wife, who
committed suicide a few weeks ago.
Crushed in spirit and broken in health
and with u physician constantly In
attendance. Mrs. Terry told of the
hard lll'o her daughter was forced to
endure Willi the giant negro.
"If my daughter's suicide," sobbed
Mrs. Terry, "will serve as a warning
to other girls, and If 1 thought It might
sove someono elso from a similar futo
my own crushing burden of sorrow
might bo easier. 1 would feel that her
death was not In vain.
Bitter at Negro.
"It would be wrong for mo to tell
what ought to be done to Jack John

must d() Hint, but every night I pray
to God to punish that negro n he de
servos. "Two weeks ngo I had a vision In a
dream, and I bellevo it was God's
promise of punishment I saw a boat
on a beautiful stream. In It was Etta
tulklng to my dead husband. Sudden
ly, from out of the water rose the
giant and glistening form of Jack
Johnson, tho negro, lie grabbed for
the boat with both hands, but missed.
My daughter rowed away and disap
peared with a happy rlpplo of laugh

slcwly swallowed tho black num.
"I believe that my daughter's sui
cide came at. a period not of tempo
rary madness hut ono of extreme lu
cldnesa. Sho was never In her right
mind. I believe for one brief moment
the mental fog lifted from her brain
und the hldeousmus of her position
was clearly revealed. It was so re
volting that she shot hersellf.
"No one can ever know how cruel
that negro was to Etta. Ho beat her
so badly sho was forced to go to a
hospital. She was mortally afraid of
him and ran away once, hiding in a
hotel. I have seen my poor child with'
Imr eye black and her face brfulsed.
Ilefore she went to Kuropo with him

"At the time of Etta's funeral my
daughter Arllne went to Chicago with

the body but Johnson refused to give
