D. H. Hawley, passenger, reported bad
ly hurt; Pearl Casley and w: H. Conk-
ling, mail clerks; ]. w. Webster, Pu-
eblo, passenger, legs badly hurt
The accident was due to the failure
of the freight train, which was late, to
take the siding at Portland and allow
the passenger train, which was running
on schedule time and had the right of
way, to pass. Both locomotives were
completely wrecked, the baggage and
express cars were telescoped and piled
up in a heap, the forward end of the
day coach was smashed and five freight
cars loaded with merchandise were de-
molished. The Pullman cars were not
damaged.
The passenger train was running
about thirty five miles and the freight
twenty miles an hour when the COLI
sion occurred. The impact Of the en-
gines was terrific. Great confusion fol-
lowed the collision, and exaggerated re-
ports regarding the disaster were circu-
lated.

OF the campaign since accepting the

sue, he said:
Permit me to call your attention
to the portion of the Democratic plat
form relating to it:
No Government has the right to
make one set of laws for those

In the colonies. Wherever there may
exist a people incapable of being gov
erned under American laws, in con-
sonance with the Constitution, the ter
ritory of that people ought not to be
part of the American domain. We
insist that we ought to do for the
Fflipinos what we have done already
for the Cubans, and that it Is our
duty to make that promise now, and
upon suitable guarantees of protection
to citizens of our own and other
countries resident there at the time
of our withdrawal to set the Filipino
people upon their feet. free and indie

"The Declaration of Independence,
born in the brain of the fathers of De-
mocracy, says the same thing in effect,
for it declares that governments derive

the governed
II have before said that we may not
disregard the responsibility imposed by
possession of the Philippines. and that
responsibility will be best subserved by
preparing the islanders as rapidly as
possible for self-government and giving
to them the assurance that it will come
as soon as they are reasonably prepared
for it,
"This means independence for the
Filipinos in the fullest sense of the
word. When prepared they may gov

our politics, unincumbered by our poll

Secretary Taft has said: "A
promise to give ultimate independence
will be construed by the more violent
element disposed to agitation, to be
a promise to grant independence in
the near future and during the pres
ent generation. The success of the
experiment we are making in the
Philippines depends on having the
Filipinos understand that we are there
for their benefit, but that we expect
to stay there indefinitely in working

MAGIC SCREEN

StereopticOn Views of Cali

BY PAUL EDWARDS.

CALL BUREAU, WORLDS FAIR,
ST. LOUIS, Oct. l5.-''When you see a
bunch Of farmers anywhere in these
Eastern States that are dissatisfied and
would like TO try a more congenial
cline, just take your stereopticon and
give them about three doses Of grapes
and oranges and alfalfa, and then
point TO the nearest railroad station"
The speaker was Captain VIII Har-
ris OF the Kings County exhibit, who
has just sent fifteen families from a
district in Iowa to his county. He did
it all with his little stereopticon.
They may talk about the adz and
the brewery being in the lead Of civili-
zation's onward march," said Harris,
but it's the tereopticon-thats the
thing. The -barreled rife and the
coonslxin cap have had their day. If
Daniel Boone and General Fremont had
been expert with the lantern the wild
turkey would have been crowded off

over there in Iowa when I threw
Fresno oranges on the screen the chill

who had been trying to make corn pro-
duce heavily enough to head off the
mortgage gazed on a few alfalfa ranges
and a township or two Of drying fruit,
and began figuring how much they
could clean up On their farms by train
time the next night If anybody hesi-
tates turn on the lantern slides.
Enough energetic men working with
stereopticons could depopulate the East
and fill California until the settlers
dropped off into the sea
Seriously, the stereopticon is the
best advertising medium outside Of a
permanent exhibit. The Eastern farmer
may hear plenty Of stories, and true
ones, about the marvels Of agriculture
in California and not be particularly
impressed, but you give him vistas Of
growing alfalfa, fruit orchards, vine
yards and dairy scenes, such as may
be seen from one end Of California to

DENIES RUMOR
OF WITHDRAW AL

Hermann Schussler, engineer Of the
Spring Valley Company. denied en-
phatically last evening rumor that he
is to resign his position with the COM
pany. He has not had the slightest in
tention Of doing so. The story, he said,
would please people in the City Hall
if it were true, but there was absolutely
no foundation for it. The directors Of
the company some time ago asked him
if he would continue to serve the COR
poration. He then said that he would.
1t is true, Mr.. Schussler says, that
he will go to Europe as soon as pOssi-
bic after the decision in the suit the
Spring Valley Company has against
the city of San Francisco.
Il have been forty years in the SER
vice of the company" said Mr.. Schuss-
Ter. "A week ago the directors gave a
dinner in my honor. Tonight am
going to give a dinner to forty Of the
employees Of the company as token
of continued good will and Of apprecia-
ton of their services. On my return
from Europe I will again serve the
company II my health permits Poor
health alone can prevent me from again
taking up the work"
Concerning the water company's suit
against the city, Mr.. Schussler said
that he told the directors three years
ago that he would never appear again
to testify about water rates before the
Supervisors, but that he would willing
ly testify before a court.
