the commission has taken pains to
erect building to contain features OF
interest. That this idea has been car
ried out is attested by the large crowds
that have thronged the Oregon build
ing ever since opening day.
The main room is filled with mag
nificent views of oregon's Justly famed
scenery, Indian robes and other ar
ticles of interest One side is COM
pletely filled by large fireplace that
can accommodate cordwood with ease.
Directly over the fireplace is 15-foot
panorama of Portland, the exposition
city of 1905, showing snow-capped
peaks and the beautiful Willamette
river and the surrounding country.
In addition to the main reception
room there are four Office rooms which

feet square, with bastions at the two
outer corners.
The nearest exhibit to the state

Continued From Page IL

In the past, and now stands, has
brought to us as people, the best gov
eminent known to our present civil
cation. And we believe the continued
success of the republican party is es-
sential to our future welfare. The So

the United States furnishes striking
example of the direct results of the
adoption of correct national policies.
Under republican administrations this
nation has become one of the most in
fuential powers of the earth.
"The administration of President
Roosevelt meets our hearty approval.
His every act has been marked by a
wise and conservative Judgment in ma
tional affairs. He has proved fitting
successor of our lamented President
William Mckinley, whose memory is
beloved by every patriot in the land.
His high personal character has
brought honor and respect to Ameri-
can manhood. His broad and patriotic
grasp of public affairs commends him
as a safe and trusted leader. And his
election means national growth, peace

CHARLES j. cAckLEY CONFESSED
MURDERER ASKS GOVERNOR
FOR cLEMENcY.

Keosauqua, June To- John Beck,
alias Charles ]. Cacliley, who was ar
rested three months ago for a murder
committed by him in 1866, at Farming
ton, pleaded guilty to second degree
murder and was given a ten-year SEN
tence, is now the center of a fight for
and against pardon. A petition, con-
tanning a large number of names of
neighbors who had resided near him in
Missouri for the 80 years intervening
between his murder and sentence, re-
cites the fact that he has lived an up
right life, that he is the head of a
large family needing his support and
that he is SO old that he can not sur
vive his term. Sheriff Ramsey of Van
Buren, county, sends letter of protest
to the governor at the same time in
which he declares that Cackley does
not deserve clemency; that he was
lucky to receive such a light sentence;
that his family is better off without
him and that his murder was cold
blooded, his victim, the town marshal
of Pennington, having been deliberate
ly shot down by him while under ar
rest ON charge of intoxication.
