The John J. Heavey organization held
another meeting last night. Between
sixty-fve and seventy-ive men an of
whom seemed to be enthusiastic Heayey-
ties attended. A bigger meeting was
anticipated. but. considering the weather
signs of discouragement were not seen
on the part Of the promoters. 1t was
anticipated that the organization COM
mittee would make detailed report.
The work Of the committee was in such
shape. however, that it was deemed best
only to make a verbal report Of progress.
This. was one encouragement.
On the suggestion of Mr.. Heavey,
committee was appointed to draft reso-
lutions expressing regret over the death
of Mrs. Robert Davis The chair ap-
pointed Messrs. Heayey. Christie Nc
Cabe and Daniel Y. Lewis.
It.shad been announced that three
Democratic speakers who had not
hitherto spoken in public in favor
of Mr.. Heavey's candidacy for the Dem
cratic Shrieyalty nomination would ad-
dress the meeting. Counsellor Warren
Dixon was one of these. Counsellor
James Mccormack also made a speech.
Some other speakers disappointed the
committee. Counsellor Warren Dixon's
speech, which was at the beginning of
ne meeting, was much applauded.
Counsellor Dixon said in the course of
his speech that he had been asked out
side if be were going to speak for Mr..
Hsayey and against Mr.. Davis. From
the platform he announced that he was
not there to say anything against Mr..
Davis. whom he considered wise, able
and sagacious leader of the Democratic
party: that he hoped the party would al
ways haze such an able leader. and that
nothing could make him believe that Mr..
Davis would try to prevent an honest
primary.
"As TO coming here and speaking a
word in favor of Mr.. Heavey for the
nomination Of Sheriff, said Mr.. Dixon,

tent.

date Of the presentation will probably
coincide with the completion Of the mobi-

Counsellor Warren Dixon was one of
The speakers last night at the Heayey
meeting in Elks Hall. His address did
not seem to please some of the more ar
dent of Mr.. Heayey's supporters. Mr.
Dixon did not attack Robert Davis. On
the contrary he said that he had great
admiration for the Democratic leader
and believed him to be the right man in
the right place. He hoped Mr.. Davis
would continue at the head of the pflrty's
affairs. This kind Of a speech was not
looked for. Some of Mr.. Heavey's sup
perters cannot understand how any
friend of the under-sherif can be in
touch with Robert Davis. These men
all have grievances against the party
leader and if they had their way the
Heavey movement would be directed
against Mr. Davis's leadership rather
than to further the interests of the man
who is seeking the Democratic shriev-
atty nomination.

The Democrats viii probably offer the
nomination for President of the. Board
of Aldermen to John Mehl, Jr. He is a
resident of tie Hudson City section and
is one of the most popular men in Jersey
City. If he can be induced to accept,
Mr.. Henry, the prospective Mayoralty
candidate and his friends. will have good
reason to be thankful. Mr.. Mehl' rs can
didacy would attract many independent
voters to the Democratic ticket. 1t is
conceded that Thomas Corydon, Of the
Second Ward, and Frank Donnelly, of
the Fifth Ward, will be the Democratic
candidates for members Of the Board Of
Street and Water Commissioners. They
practically have the field to themselves.
Republicans are talking of giving one
of these pominations to Assessment Com
missioner Thomas Connolly. The other
Republican candidate will be taken from
the Hudson City section.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-08-08

Pendleton, Or, is on the route
mapped out by Edward F. Simon, of
Syracuse, N. Y, who last Saturday
morning started in an automobile
journey across the continent by way
of Chicago, Omaha, Cheyenne, Salt
Lake City, Boise City and Pendleton
to Portland.
Mr.. Simon is accompanied by his
family and 1t will be the first family
ever to cross the continent in an au-
tomobile. Doubts are expressed that
the family will be able to stand the
fatigue Of the long journey and it is
expected that they will be forced to
take a train before the journeys end.
Mr.. Simon has started on his 3300-
mile trip in 16-horse-p power machine
and will take it leisurely on the way,
expecting the trip to consume two
months. His family, which accom-
panied him, consists of his wife
and son, aged 5, and daughter aged
10.
The trip will be made entirely for
recreation and Mr.. Simon will stop
at all places of interest along the
route. He will also make an especial
study of country roads, the cost of
travel across the different states and
the needs of the different sections in
the way of public highways.
He expects to reach Portland before
the close of the Lewis and Clark fair
If possible, but will not sacrifice any
interesting sights along the road for
this purpose.
Mr.. Simon has been in correspond
ence with western people for some
time and has practically mapped out
his entire journey and knows in ad-
vance which cities and towns will be
visited. Pendleton is given in this
printed schedule and 1t is thought he
will stop here for several days to
view the Umatilla county wheat har-
vest, which will be at its close by the
time he arrives here.
The family will camp out during
nice weather and stop at towns, viii
lagos or farm houses during bad
weather and make notes of all inter-
esting features of the trip, to be used
in magazine articles after the trip is
completed. After visiting Portland,
the party will go down the Pacific
coast to San Francisco and will return
by train to Syracuse next winter
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-08-08

uated about five miles above Lewis
ton, on the Snake river If the river
can be kept open to navigation it will
be sent by boat to Lewiston and pos-
sibly by rail from there, and to do
this the government dredge Wallowa
has been placed in service.
Reports from the upper river say
that the Snake is at a lower stage
than 1t has been for years, and is fall
ing at the rate of L of a foot every
two days, ana 1t is now only one foot
above the low water mark Before
very long it is declared it will be below
the zero point
If such proves to be true it Is feared
that the steamers plying in those wa
ters will have TO be taken out of COM
mission. In that event it would be
necessary to transport the grain crop
to Lewiston by teams over rough and
almost impossible roads if growers
were anxious to get it to market this
fan. But it Is supposed that many
would wait until winter, when the
river would again become navigable,
before undertaking to move the crops
All the snow has melted from the
mountains and there is no possible
chance for the river to increase in
depth unless constant rains should
fall, but they never do at this season
in that section, and so the probabili-
ties are very strong that the upper
Snake will soon be closed to traffic.

EXCURSION STEAMER SANK.
Went Down In Seven Feet OF Water,
and No One Drowned.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. S.-The ex-
cursion boat Sunshine sank this af-
ternoon at Broad Ripple park, 10
miles from the city, with $50 passen-
gers on board, all of whom were men
but one, a woman, who was rescued
by a launch. No one was drowned
but several were injured in the panic
The Sunshine PHYS on the backwater
of Broad Ripple dam on White rivar
and was carrying a picnic party con-
sisting of employees OF the Indianap-
oils stockyards.
The overweighting of the boat
caused 1t to turn over on its side and
the superstructure broke from the
hull. The water is IA feet deep in
the channel. but the boat was near
the bank when the accident occurred
and in but seven feet of water. The
upper deck remained above water
Five persons were more or less 'n-
jured. william Waited had his bac'l
badly hurt and Dennis Milligan had
his right foot mashed. Persons in
launches and canoes took a number
of persons from the water. The great
er number clung to the upper deck
which was not submerged, until taken
ashore by boats.

careful of is to have sufficient over

LEG CUT OFF BY TRAIN.
Drunken Man Meets With an Accident
at Heppner junction Last Evening.

As the eastbound o. r. & n. pas
senger train No. 2, pulled out of
Heppner Junction yesterday evening,
a drunken man who was lying on the
depot platform and who was waiting
for the Heppner train to leave, rush
ed out and grabbed the steps on the
main line train and was pulled under
the wheels where his right leg was
cut off above the knee.
The train was Immediately stopped.
as the train crew witnessed the acci-
dent, but was unable to prevent 1t, and
the injured man picked up and his in
juries dressed as well as possible un-
der the circumstances and he was
taken to Heppner on the branch train
later in the evening.
He was a farm hand belonging in
the vicinity of Heppner and gave the
name of Dan Foster to the train
crew. There was no blame attached
to the train crew whatever as the man
was lying apparently asleep when the
train started and before it could be
stopped had fallen under the wheels.

PRAISES EAST oREGoNIAN.
Public Sentiment All Over Oregon
Favors Good Civic Morals.

The following extract from the
Long Creek Ranger is a fair sample
of the expressions of public sentiment
commencing the East Oregonian's
fight for better morals. Such ex-
pressions are noticed from every part
of the state and give evidence of a
healthy condition.
After reprinting in fun an editorial
from the East Oregonlan demanding
the regulation of saloons and the sup
preston of gambling, the Ranger
says:
THE above is from the Pendleton
East Oregonian, an Independent pa
per with nerve enough to fight for
the rights of law and decency-loving
people, and is making friends from
other parties by its stand. The Trib-
une, the avowed republican paper of
Pendleton, is too proud to take the
same stand. because the Il. o. started
II, and because they wish to have
their associates from the lower stra-
tas of society. The same conditions
generally prevail in Grant county
with the exception as to the demo-
cratic paper Here the peace officers
protect real crime at times, and pros
ecute innocent people,"
