SMITH TRIBE UPHOLDS

Since the figures of the Twelfth Cen

perennial discussion between these two
great families as 10 which is the greater
is decided temporarily in favor of the
Johrsons. Consequently there are great
reioicings in the house of Johnson and
sore lamentations in the house of Smith
But the Smiths are not dismayed. They
have raised the slogan. Another ten
years and victory will be ours" The
edict has gone forth from the Chief of
Clan Smith that all Smiths shall enter
the antirace suicide contest and gather
unto themselves the twenty-dollar

That the Board Sympa-

sort and He is PoWerleSS.

The report that crimping of sailors
is carried on with free nand in Ore
gon, in direct violation of the Federal
laws, has been called to the attention
of Secretary Cortelyou. of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor. With &
view of putting a stop to the practice,
he has written to Governor Chamber
lain. of that State, expressing the hope
that the Oregon board of commission
ers will reject an application for a
license made by the keeper OF any Of
these boarding houses which break the
law
In reply to the communication Gov
ernor Chamberlain was written Secre-
tary Cortelyou, and severely comments
on the work of the commission. He
signifies his belief that the majority of
the members of the body are in SYM
pathy with one of the most notorious
boarding house keepers in Oregon, and
says that the corrective measure on the
subject was so tampered with in pass
ing through the State Legislature that
he believes little good Will result from
1t. He closes the letter by appealing
for help through the Federal authori-
ties.
Secretary Cortelyou's letter is, in
part. as follows:
The soliciting of seamen to become
lodgers. and the boarding of vessels,
as you are doubtless aware. have been
the subjects of legislation by Congress.
A copy of those acts and OF regulations
Hereunder are inclosed
In Interest of Commerce.
81 have the honor to bring these
matters to your notice in the interests
of commerce and with the hope that the
Oregon board of commissioners may
deem IL advisable to reject application
for a license, or renewal of the same,
by the keeper of a boarding house who,
directly or through his agents. runners,
or employees. may violate the acts OF
Congress or the regulations lawfully
made pursuant thereto"
In reply. Governor Chamberlain
writes:
The last Legislature of this State
passed an act creating a sailor boarding
house commission, and named the Com
missioneTs therein. If the measure as
originally introduced in the Legislature
had become law. ii would have resulted
in much good in the way OF purging
the ports OF Oregon OF the villainous
practices INDUCED in by sailor boarding
house keepers and their agents, but in
the course of It's passage the bill was
so emasculated that I do not expect any
good TO result from ii.
